RR Ne AIA ribly disfigured. Hobbs was burned about the face and bruised. The place where the accident occurred is one of the finest resident districts in the city. Fortunately, few people were on the street, owing to the arly hour, or the list of killed and injured would have undoubtedly been greatly in- creased, Every window in the block was blown out. Nearly every one in the neighborhood was asleep and the noise and concussion caused by the explosion almost created @ panic. HMalf-clad men and terrified women came running from thelr rooms and a most horrible sight met their eyes. The body of the colored driver, man- fled almost beyond recognition, fell on the front porch of the residence, fully 800 feet from the place where the ex-| Plosion occurred. Just outside the fence and on the sidewalk was the body of | Private Woods. Bits of flesh and pieces | of bloody uniform were scattered all along the street, clinging to tree tops and in the shattered windows. A leg and half a coat were found on Third | street, one block south of where the explosion took place. They must have been blown clear over a three-story and basement house, Several mangled lege and arms were found on the tops of adjacent houses. One Man Blown to Pieces. It ts believed that the body of Private Hutchins was blown to pieces, as it has not yet been found. A hook and ladder | truck of the city fire department was called and with ladders every housetop in the vicinity was searched in vain for | the missing body.
