Alexander Beebees, president of the Ri Gas & Electric Corp., said he did not know the exact cause of yesterday's failure. “This sequence of events is clear,” he added. “First, a manhole at a street intersection apparently became filled with gas and ignited. The manhole housed a series of pressure reducing {egulators serving the blast area. “Two, the explosion smashed the control mechaniem in the regulators and an unusual gas pressure was released to feed into the area, “Three, this caused leakage of gas into ‘some of the homes whereby it was ignited by various means.”
