CAMPERDOWN DOCKED.

Her Injuries Being Examined Today
Shock of collision Not Very Severe.
MALTA, July 6-The Ca nperdown en-
ters the Somerset dock today for exam
ination and repairs. The appearance of
the Camperdown is much as usual. The
officers and crew of the vessel have not
vet recovered from the shock caused by
the awful catastrophe.
The late Sir George TiyoI's order is
more and more n mystery unless tue mis-
calculation of distance is accepted as a
sufficient reason. which dos not seem
poss BILE for man 50 exact, careful. and
competent.
There seems o be an impre ,sioI among
the men aboard the Camperdown that
something was wrong not hitherto spok-
stated that when the ships col
lided Admiral Tryon was the only
person on tie Victoria's bridge excepting
Commander Has kins Smith. because the
admiral mad sent Captain Bourke, Lord
Clifford a;d OF ers away oil vmi-
Gus errands. As the ships
were approaching each other,
when the collision was absolutely inevi-
table Admiral Tryon called out some in
quiry OF Rear Admiral Markham OH the
Camper owns bridge which was not
clearly understood on the Camperdow
The ords sounded like What did you
do" or "Why did you not do, F" tue rest
not being dstinct. IL was rumored last
night that Admiral Tryon had sligh,
sunstroke while on shore at Tripoli two
davs before the disaster.
The shock of the collision was not of
sufficient violence to upset persons or
things on the Camperdown. Nothing
was disarranaed. Even the silver przs
vase on the pede on the wardroom
table was not overturned.

THE COLUMBUS CARAVHS
Elaborate Preparations Made to Re-
ceiVo Them at Chicago.
THEY ARE DUE THERE TOMORROW
Senator sherman VIII Deliver an Ad-
dress OF Welcome. and the Nations
AbIest Men VIII Be There to Extend
Groetings-Fair Gossip.

CHICAGO, July 6-Elaborate prepara-
tions arb being made TO receive the
Columbus caravels which are ex-
pected to arrive in this city on the 9TH.
The naval parauv wall Je under the COM
mand OF Captain Berry OF the American
man of war Michigan, and IL is expected
that fleet of 25 or 30 vessels and large
number of excursion boats will go up to
Evanston to meet the caravels and escort
them to the exposition grounds.
At the exposition grounds when the
caravels arrive there will be novel pa
rade under command Of Colonel Rice. All
the United States troops, sailops and ma.
rines will be mustered and will be Joined
by detachments Of French. Italian, Rus
sian and Spanish sailors, and there will be
a number of detachments from the Mid
way plaisance, Arabians, Egyptians. Al
gerians and soldiers from other countries.
1t is intended to include in the parade SOL
diers from all the countries of the earth,
so far as possible.
The address of welcome will be delivered
by the Hon. John Sherman, who has come
to Chicago for that purpose. Other dis
tinguished gentlemen have also been in
vited to participate, including Senator Al
lison of Iowa, Senator Mcpherson of New
Jersey, Senator German of Maryland,
Senators Frye and Hale of Maine, ex-
Speaker Reed and other congressman who
have taken an active interest in the con-
struction of the caravels The Hon. III. A.
Herbert, secretary OF the navy, and ex-
Secretary Tracy, under whose direction
the caravels were built, have also been In
vited.
The Runninn Expenses.
Frederick Law Olmsted Is no longer n
salaried official of the Worlds fair In
the new budget that will be presented to
the executive committee no estimate is to
be made for Mr.. Olmsted's salary. Mr.
Olmstead and his associates laid out the
park and had charge of all the landscape
work
The budget as made up finally by the
council calls for about $4,000 day to pay
the running expenses Of the fair. The
council tried to get the figures below sl3,-
600, but could not do it.
Frank Millet has rendered his resigna-
tion as director of decorations. The work
of coloring the various buildings has been
completed, and nothing remains but the
application Of fresh paint, and Mr.. Miller
did not consider that his services were
longer required. II is probable that he
will be retained by the exposition manage
ment to assist I'm the fete days.

A PECULIAR THEFT.

What Moses vinton Wanted of a Horse
Brush a Mystery-A "Lady's" Insult.
In the sixth district court this mornin q
Harry Jackson, small boy who had the
misfortune to fall into the hands Of the
d lice while busily engaged In defacin z
property in the Elmwood Avenue schoo.-
house, was arragned, and was sentenced
to the reform school during his minority.
Alexander Benoit was fued $40 and
costs for an assault on Ellen O'Brien.
He claimed that the "lady 81 it In hi
f,ce and that he was merely satisfying
the instincts of revenge for the outrage
against his manhood, but his manner OF
revenge justified the court in imposing
the abov, fine.
Moses Vinton was flne1 S. and {: osts
Tor tae larceny of horse brush from
James Allen. AS Morse has no horse it
cannot be- imagine what he was going
to do with the brush, unless, as one OF
tue court officials remarked. he was on
the point of taking n bath. At any rate
he will! get his bath, as the first thing
done to the prisoner at the Jail is to wash
him thoroughly.

SO BODIES RECOVERED.
ONLY A FEW MEN ESCAPED DEATH
IN THE THORNHILL MINE.

LONDON, July 6.-Ths work of rescuing
the living miners and Of recovering the
bodies of the dead In being pushed a.
rapidly as possible In Ingram's colliery,
Thornhill, Yorkshire. the scene of Tues
days disastrous explosion that entombed
the day shift of 145 men,
Volunteers for the work OF rescue are
plenty and the miners are working their
way into the farthermost workings Of the
pit as expedition sly as can be expected in
view of the fact that they have removed
enormous quantities of debris from the
galleries.
Thus far the bodies of SO dead miners,
some of them terribly burned or crushed,
have been sent to the surface. Other
bodies can be seen in different parts of the
mine hut they are pinned down with
rocks and timbers and 1t will require some
time and skill to remove them.
The bodies Of some OF the men do n OF
show a sign OF how death was caused
These men escaped the effects of the ex-
plosion, but were killed by the choke
damp that filled the mine after the ex-
plosive gas had taken fire.
Many women and children are lingering
about the mouth Of tho pit, and many dis
tressing scenes are witnessed as the bodies
of the dead arc brought up and exposed
for Identification.
Two men were brought up In an uncon-
scious condition, but still breathing. The
physicians who had been around the pits
mouth nearly all the time since the acci-
dent occurred, at once took them in charge,
and hopes are entertained that they will
recover.
Six men who had sustained no injury
whatever, but who had been imprisoned
behind huge mass of debris were dug
out last evening. When they appeared at
the mouth of the pit they were greeted in
most touching manner by their relatives
and friends.
No reason has been given for the explo.
sion, but the conjecture is that 1t was
caused by carelessness on the part of one
Of the miners in opening his lamp.
