Lieut, John Parker and the gas crew of Rescue Squad No, 1, motor- ing to the scene at breakneck speed, had two tires blown out, but finished the trip without stopping, The fumes routed hundreds of per- pons in the neighborhood, subjecting many to Sts of violent coughing and @ubsequent nausea, One hundred men were at work in the plant, which | covers almost a whole block, were near the tank in the basement. Foreman William MoDougal of No. 323 Putnam Avenue sensed trouble of some kind and ordered the men out. But before they could escape there came an explosion, Several were blown against the walls of the room, which quickly filled with the fumes. However, they either ran or were dragred to safety. ‘The explosion put out all the Mehta of the plant and the employees had to grope their way to the exits, Sev- eral took refuge on the roof. When the rescue squad arrived they put on their gas masks and soon stopped the break with an em~ ergency plug. Vast quantities of milk and cream wero rendered useless before the damage was repaired at 4 A. M. and ‘it was announced there would be no Geliveries from the plant to-day, thus cutting off hundreds of con- sumers, EVERY MEAL A POISONOUS INJECTION Fow folks suffer from kidney and Diadder troubles ever think t the mosis which they are taking are hasten- ine their death.
