IN ELECTRICAL PHENOMENON.
Two Workmen at the Norfolk Navy Yard
Killed and Others Injured.

WASHINGTON, June 27.-Reports have
reached the Navy Department OF a re-
markable phenomenon which occurred at
Norfolk navy yard a week ago to-day,
in which two men were instantly killed
and number Of others knocked sense
less by an electric discharge. Consider
able mystery still exists about the occur
renee. and IL has not yet been possible
to obtain full particulars 1t appears
from the account received that the
steel cruiser Raleigh was in the wooden
dry-dOck last Wednesday. and number
Of men were working on her hull, when
a thunderstorm swept over the naval
station. The workmen sought shelter be-
meath a vessel which rested on the
blocks in center of the dock. Suddenly.
without warning. two Of the men fell
dead and most Of the others were knock
ed senseless by an electrical discharge.
The officers OF the vessel, who were
sitting about on the deck. did not feel
the shock, but all the cOmpasses and
similar instruments were affected, and
the vessel was permanently magnetiZed
in such a manner as to render the
electric apparatus and compass useless
without considerable repairs and adjust
ment. The only explanation that Is offer
ed by the naval officers for the escape
of the officers Of the vessel from the
shock was that the Raleigh was insulated
by being on blocks which were dry,
while the men who were killed or injured
were in shallow water on the bottom Of
the dock
