LAUNCH OF THE OREGON.
Another Big Battle Ship ADDED TO ths
American Navy.

American Navy.
The big battle ship Oregon was success
FULLY launched at the Union iron works at
San Francisco yesterday in the presence OF
over 10000 people The morning broke cold
and cherries. and a heavy fog overhunx
the bay and land, but the uninvitinC con-
dition of the atmosphere did not deter those
who had made UP their minds to he pres
ent at the launching from starting out 1t
an early hour for the scene On the hay
yachts, tugs. steamers and al availabis
small boats were crowded TO their utmost
capacity. The fog lifted by II O'Clock. ana
the sun shone forth to lend its glory to
the scene. A private stand had been erect
ed right under the bow Of the battle ship
and hereon stood the invited guests.
Irving NJ. Scott, president Of the Union
iron works: Gen. Kruger, commandinx the
department Of the Pacific. and staff: Capt
Howison, commandment OF the Mare Island

iert. Gen. Compson of Portland. represent
ing Governor Pennoyer Of Oregon and
other distinguished personages were pres
emit and, In addition, there were two young
ladies who took a most important part IN
the ceremony.
resenting the state Of Oregon, and Miss
Eugenia Shelby, representing the city of
Portland; Miss Ruth Dolph. daughter OF
Senator Dolph OF Oregon, had been desig-
mated by Secretary Herbert to represent
the navy. but the young lady was unable
to be present.
On arrival OF the final moment-two mia
utes before noon-the cord connecting the
dogshores, instead Of being severed by the
historic Ratchet, was cut by a guiiiotine, set
free by the pressing OF an electric button by
Miss Shelby.
The guillotine. in its fall. severed the cord,
which held two twenty-hve-pound weights
in position. These weights struck the dog
shores. and. knocking them out. set the ves-
sci in motion. At the same moment Miss
Ainsworth pressed another button, allow
ing bottle of California champagne to
crash against the bow In a thousand pieces
and spin its contents over II. Thus was the
big ship christened on her departure from
the ways down which she glided easily into
the bay, a mighty cheer arising from the
admiring throng. and bands playing ma
tional airs. and with every whistle round
about sending forth a screech OF enthusi
asm.

Boston Has Another Fatal Fire-This
Time the Victims Are Quickly Found
The Bodies Cannot be Recognized-The
Vessel Can be Speedily Repaired.

Boston, Jan. 13-An overheated galley
stove on board the sloop Shawmut, which
has been lying at the foot of Commercial
wharf for some days, caused fatal fire
early this morning.
The fire communicated to the wood
work and crept along to the hunks OF the
crew. One of the occupants OF the fore
castle awoke and gave the alarm.
Then followed a frightful scramble for
life, several of the men reaching the deck
with poriions OF their clothes on fire.
1t was 3:l5 when the fire department
reached the scene, and after short, sharp
struggle the blaze was subdued.
There was a smell of burning flesh and
a search of the charred forecastle dis
closed the body or sailor lying In a
bunk nearest the stove burned SO as to be
unrecognizable.
Several of the survivors are suffering
from painful burns and the sloop is dam
aged so 1t will take two weeks to refit
her.
Half an hour after the body Of the first
sailor was found in the burned forecastle
OF the sloop another mass of charred flesh
was pulled from bunk by the searchers.
Neither Of the bodies was recognized,
but they are supposed to be those of
