Aprtl U.-A coetly accident occurred yesterday evenlnn, at the Crala-hlartin factory hem While the engtReer Was absent from the ensrlne, the belt attached to the governor broke, instantly removing all control of the engine. A heavy pressure of steam was tn the boilers, and the engine, which is a large one, ran away with itself. Finally the six-foot fly-wheel burst, hurling heavy fragments of Iron ail through the factory, the roof and Into the yards, wrecking everything in their path. Fortunately no 6ne was Injured,' though there were narrow escapes. As soon as the belt broke, engineer Frank Boling hastened to the engine and was trying to turn off the steam, when the fly-wheel burst He was standing within a few feet of the wheel, and almost la the path of the flying Iron, and the concussion threw him off his feet and over a planing shaft. He managed to crawl through the blinding steam out of the building. The steam-pipe leading from the boiler to tbe engine was wrenched from Its connection, which permitted the escape of the steam and stopped the machinery and engine. llie whole factory was enveloped In steam 'so dense that it was some time before entrance could be had Into the building. The engine and bed were practically demolished. Belts and machinery were wrecked on every hand, and the building itself was badly damaged. Tbe Immense force tore the engine loose from its concrete bed, and shattered the steel bed plate, fourteen feet long, in a half dozen places. Until the damage can be replaced the factory will be partially operated with an auxiliary gasoline engine.
