The jury on the body of Mr. Kemp, killed by the South Boston gas explo nion, rendered a verdict this afternoon in effect tbat tbe explosiou which caused his death was from the ignition of gas in a confined space of the sidewalk; that the leakage of the gas was due to gross carelessness on the part of those who had charge of the drip cocks; (hat the laying of gas pipe in the maaucr which it was laid, was culpably defective and dangerous: that the pipe on the Boston side of the bridge being laid in the same manner, the city authorities should cause them to be relaid in such a manner as to avoid a recurrence of the accident.
