The Explosion of the IL. f. Lee.

WILMINGTON, n. c., Sept. 1.-THE fol-
lowing is the verdict Of the coroner jury in
the case of the steamer r. f. Lee which ex-
ploded her boiler near Fayetteville Aug. 18th :
That the deceased, Alexander Jackson, VIM.
Gilmore and Sam. Mckee, came to their death
By the explosion of the boiler of the
steamer r. f. Lee on the morning Of the
18th of August, 1872; that the jury do find
from .hc turgoing evidence there can be no
blame attached to Captain Skinner or any OF
the employees; but they do censure the United
States Inspector for this district for allowing
steamer % run some four years or more with
out testing the boilers as required by law, there
by endangerng the life and limb OF the pas
sengers and crew and we do hold the said in
spector in great degree responsible for the
said explosion and at least great neglected of
his duty, as he granted certificate for this
boat without his being in the state at the time
In our judgment it Is the duty of the authori-
ties to examine into this matter, and if there
has been neglect on the part OF the inspector rs
the foregoing evidence goesto prove, lie should
be hold accountable for the same"
