cAusE OF THE LOSS OF THE TRENTON.

The ship, he said, was handled most skill.
fully. It would have been impossible to
have steamed out of harbor as the CALI.
ope did, as the engines were not powerful
enough. As it was, with every pound oi
| steam the Trenton could carry and three
anchors out, the ship could not hold up
against the storm. -.,.
Notwithstanding the confusion that was
present everywhere in Apia during the first
few days after the storm. by the end of a
week the quarters of the shipwrecked sail.
ors had been made comfortable. The daily
routine OF duty was attended to and ma.
rine guard had control of the town. Work
ing parties are kept busy all the time on the
wrecks OF the Trenton and VandaIia. 1t
has not yet beeu ascertained whether the
Nipsic is to be able to leave the harbor or
not.
King Mataafa came down from his camp
q few days ago. A light rain had fallen the
night before and the water had leaked into
many tents occupied by the sailors.
Mataafa pointed out to Admiral Kimberly
the danger of sickness breaking out among
the men on account OF this exposure and
on behalf of his people offered to vacate
all the Samoan houses in Apia and allow
the American sailors to use them. Ad-
warmly, but stated to him that it would
be difficult to control the men if they were
scattered around among the native
houses. He promised, however, to consider
the offer if the situation became more
pressing.
THE OPINION OF THE SAN FRANCISCO "cHRoN-
ICLE."
SAN FRANCISCO, April 14.-Ths ..Chroni-
Gle. commenting on the details OF Ameri.
can and German war ships at Apia, says
this account settles all doubts as to the re-
sponsibility for the disaster. 1t proves
that the American and German command
ers did everything that good seamanship
could do to save their vessels, and that the
escape OF the British ship Calliope was due
mainly to the great strength of her en-.
gines. The American officers proved their
claim to superior seamanship, and the saw
ing of the crews of the Trenton and Nipsic
was due to the skillful handling of those
vessels.
Mr.. Dunning, special correspondent OF the
Associated Press, had the rare good luck
to be the only newspaper man who wit
messed the disaster. His account is q very
realistic picture OF scenes OF heroism and
features, and we think no American can
read without emotion the thrilling episode
of the crews OF the Vandalia and Trenton
cheering each other, and OF the band OF the
Trenton striking up 1.-THE Star Spangled
Banner as the ship went on toward certain
death.
THINKS THE HAwsE PIPES ALL RIGHT.
WASHINGTON, April 15.-Naval Construc-
tor Hichborn, acting chief of the construc-
ton bureau, does not credit the report
that the fires OF the Trenton were extin'
guishsd by floods that came through the
hawse pipes. He says these pipes were
placed on the berth deck to allow the
heavy forward gun to be worked. The
effect was to make the vessel ride at an
chor more easily than if they had beer
placed on the upper deck. In q heavy sec
the water would come through them ane
complaint had been made that they KEEP
| the deck wet.

THAT SAMOAN STORM.
The Most Remarkable Ever Experienced
by Admiral Kimberly.

ApIA, Samoa. April 4.-(Via San Fran.
cisco. AFTER the great storm OF March 16
had subsidized Admiral Kimberly was visited
by an Associated Press reporter. The ad.
miral was found sitting on the porch OF a
small house facing the harbor, watching the
wrecks OF the American nen-ofwar. Isn't
it awful" he remarked to the correspond
ent. In all my 9, perience on the sea l
have never seen q storm to equal this. l
can hardly realize yet the full extent of the
damage done. Ny chief anxiety now is to
get these eight or nine hundred sailors back
to America" The admiral was asked re-.
garding his own experience during the
storm, but would say nothing Of q personal
nature.
He told OF the occurrence on the Trenton
which have already been described in a let.
ter. He attributed much OF the trouble on
the Trenton to the fact that the hawse
pipes were placed on the lower deck. II
they had been located on the deck above,
the water could not have poured in on the
Trenton in torrents as it did. flooding the
fire room and putting out her fires. Ad-
miral Kimberly considered this as indi-

That cantaakerous Old Woman

That Cantankerous Old Woman
Described in the nursery ballad, who "lived
upon nothing but victuals and drink" and
yet et"would never be quiet" was undoubtedly
troubled with chronic indigestion. Her
victuals, like those of many other elderly per-
sons whose digestive powers have become inn
paired ,..did' d'nt agree with her. This was before
the era of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, or some
would undoubtedly have persuaded her to try
the great specific for dyspepsia, constipation
aud biliousness. This would have been a
measure of self.protection on their part, for
she would soon have been cured and ceased to
disturb them with her clamor. The most OBJ
stinate cases of indigestion, with its attendant
heartburn. fatulence, constant uneasiness of
the stomach and Of the nerves, are completely
and fever and bilious remittent, rheumatism
and kidney troubles are also relieved by it.
