who were able to help themselves, were
leaping from the ship. A great crowd
of mechanic* was running out of the
workn Soon these men set to work
with a will to rescue men from the
burning vesuels. A stream of burning
oil, running from the tankw, spread
out until the ship lay on waves of fire.
The flames crept under the wharf, and
soon the timbers were blazing, adding
to the dumculty of the work of rescue.
The ship was built of rieel. The fire
was nearly all below deck. There were
fourteen oil tenka, containing about
400 barrels of oil In all, and deeplie the
efforts of the fire department, these
continued to burn fiercely for hours
after the explosion. Numerous minor
explosions occurred at short Intervals,
but the injury and loss of life was'due
to the first explosion. The Ions to the
Fulton company by the wrecking of the
building and the burning of the wharf ,
will exceed $20,000.
It is estimated that (he Progremso '
was worth about $176,000. The explo- '
slon shook nil the buildings at Hurbor •
View, and the shock was felt a mile
away. Windows were broken several '
docks from the scene.
James W. spler», JR, general mana- 1

oil and not to the bursting of the ,
