The explosion came without -warnins shortly after the stilThad been put ine loperatton and gave the workmen er opportunity to escjpe from the sho-x er of boiling oil which was scattered for yards In the neighborhood of t'still. Hugh Gibson, a brick foreman employed by the Leonard Construction company in making repairs working on the foundation of the Mit and was drenched with th boilin? liquid which immediately caught Are His identification card, which dropped from his pocket and in some manner escaped the flames, was the mean? o' identifying what remained when the flames had been checked. CAlE INCERTAIX. The still had rot been in epera'.ioi during the morning. having bee" closed for cleaning out the coke. P is possible that some of the cok which was loosened lodged In on of the pipes, and was the cause of tbhigh pressure which forced the fret off the tank. Another possible caes1s the belief that some workman failed to close a cock while the tank wj being filled with oil and the air et tering before the steam was expelieei caused the explosion. Those in friv of the still were drenched with t-e hot oil and others near were struck b. falling timbers and girders. FIGHT FLAMES TWO HOlTlt. Almost two hours were required before tho company fire fighters were able to check the flames and a search could be started for the bodies of thvictims. Andrew F.odney. a stillman. was found under the header of the tank which weighs about two tons It is believed that h was killed by the blow and died before the flames started. lDEMIFlfATION DIFFICULT. Identification of the dead was established only by a process of elimination and if other workmen are later reported missing much difficulty may be en countered in identifying two of th dead bodies which are charred beyond all hope of recognition. The sevefi injured men in St. Margaret's hospital are badly burned but they are all expected to recover. Four of the injured were allowed to leave the hospital and return to their homes in Whiting after receiving meeiieal attention. Two boilermakers who were working in the adjacent still at the time of the explosion were blocked In and dug their way out. crawling out of the stil lalmost two hours after the explosion occurred.
