This city and vicinity lias been greatly excited over the explosion of a large tank of gaso line, which completely demolished tho five-story building at 430 and 43.2 Wal nut street, at 8 o'clock last night.

Bcforo midnight it was known that 0 were killed and 18 Injured, but the work of removing the debris had proceeded so slowly that the general estimate of the killed and wounded greatly exceeded tills number. Tho building was occupied by Adolph C. Drachs, a saloon-keeper on the llrst Moor, and by Dlchcl & Co., dealers in fireworks, on tho upper floors. There were also many roomers In tho build ing.
