A very singular disaster, involving a heavy loss, occurred in this city yesterday morning. The fruit house of Caldwell Brothers & Smalley, on the cast side of Scott street, between Fourth and Fifth, was partially demolished by a gas explosion. It seems that a pipe burst in the air tight hall of the building, filling it with gas. About 7 am in the morning, a workman, with a light in his hands, threw open the door of the hall, when the gas was ignited, causing a terrific explosion, shattering the walls of the building.
The report of the explosion was heard all over the city and many buildings in the vicinity were shaken. The fruit house belonged to Robert and Richard Caldwell and A D Smalley of Newport and was erected at a coat of about $50,000. The damage to the building will amount ot about $20,000. The firm had no insurance against such a catastrophe.
