the screw, the fuse in the most unaccountable manner ig-
nited and blew the cap off, the fuse being one to burn for
10 seconds. Mr. Harvey immediately threw himself dow
in the captain's cabin, and thereby escaped the explo-

the hatch, which was shut. The gunner went down into

one beam broke, and some planks blown out of the d,ec`o
