During the prevalence of a heavy wind storm on Saturday afternoon the front wall of the new Westinghouse factory now being built on Lacock street, Allegheny City, was blown down, and several of the workmen employed on it seriously injured. The structure was approaching completion, but not sufficiently covered in to withstand the sudden gust. Repairs will be made at once, and the works finished up as fast as possible. The company will employ nearly 1,000 hands in all the departments of this concern.
