Terrible Accident on German Ironclad
in Kiei BAY.

KEEL, Feb. IA terrible accident oc-
cured on board the German ironclad
Brandenburg near Stollergrund, att~the
entrance to Kiel bay. Yesterday was
selected for speedy trial with forced
draught, and to get the ironclad In frst-
class condition for the test forty artifeers
were sent aboard from the imperial dock
yard While eleven of these artificers
were in the engine room a tremendous ex-
plosion took place. The main steam pipe
of the starboard engine had burst
Panic temporarily spread among tho
crew, but after moments hesitation
every effort was put forth to rescue the
unfortunate men in the engine room. 1t
was then found that of the eleven artific-
ers all but one had been killed. The man
who escaped owed his preservation from
the fate of his comrades to the fact that at
the moment of the explosion he was stand
ing on ladder near the top of the room.
When the steam had cleared away and
the panic had subsidized further search
was made among the crew for the dead
and injured. 1t was then discovered that
thirty-nine men in all had been killed and
nine injured. Thirty-seven of the men were
killed instantly, and two of the wounded
died in short while after receiving their
injuries.
-Four steamers were promptly dispatched
from l<iel to the scene OF the disaster with
a number of physicians and surgeons and
large quantity of medical supplies.
The injured We're at once taken to the hos
dital, where 1t is believed that all will 10

FINANCE AND TRADE.
The Lowest Prices Ever Known in Sew
oral Important Industries.

NEW YORK, Feb. 17.-R, g. Dun & Co.'S
weekly review of trade says This has been
week OF record breaking. In wheat, In
silver, IN some forms Of iron and steel, in
Connellsville coke and In cotton and
woolen goods the lowest prices ever known
have been made, and il Is gratifying that
Failures Of Importance have not resulted.
The slight recovery in prices of iron pro-
ducts has not been maintained. Bessemer
pig has declined AT Pittsburg to $40 IS and
grey forge to sos, and steel billets are
sold below SIG there, while ut Philadelphia
most rolling mill products are lower than
ever. The decline is the more noteworthy
because an increase in the demand is re-
ported, both in eastern and western mar
kets.
Textile industries do not seem to have
gained within the past week, for as many
works have closed as have resumed work,
and in wooden and cotton manufacturs
rather more. The demand for wooden
goods does not improve, and sales of wool
decreased sharply after the brisk activity
two weeks ago.
Failures for he week have been 1928 in
the ntted States, against i91 for the same
week last year and 50 in Canada, against
VI last year. Though several were Of some
magnitude the aggregate of liabilities was

DANGERS OF AFRICAN MINING
Americans Have No show in tho Race
for Fortune.

NEW York, Feb. 17-On board the
steamer Tjomo, which arrived yesterday
from Demarara, were Mr., Louis S. Dela-
plaine, United States consul at Demarara,
and Mr. A, S. Kaiser, of Centrnlia, Ills,
prospector who went to Demarara last
October to try his fortune in the gold
mines. Mr.. Kaiser when asked as to the
condition of affairs at Demarara and vi
cinity stated that few Americans who
make the trip to the gold fields ever real
ize the amount of capital put Into the ell
terprise by them, and in very many cases,
where sufficient capital is not at hand,
suffer the greatest priyation and want
still larger number, even though they may
have ample funds, fall victims to the
Demarara fever and are buried in plain
boxes at the most convenient spot
A mining law has gone Into effect which
is condemned by all white people. both
prospectors and managers of mines Tho
government, according to the statutes, Is
entitled to a royalty of ninety cents ON
each ounce OF gold taken from the mines,
and all persons engaged in mining are
compelled TO be searched at one or more of
the stations erected along the route from
the mines to Demarara. The seach is not
only In their bundles and clothing, but
the whole party is huddled together and
Spulpcilti 10 strip naked.
An American came down the river last
December and WAS brought into the
searching station. All Of the remainder
of his party We're eolored. The American
did not object to having his clothing
searched, but on being ordered to disrube
requested that private compartment be
given him This was not done, neither
was the search completed, but to the as
tonishment of the party he was ordered to
appear in court, where after trial he as
convicted and fined $50.
As no provision is made by the United
States for the relief and maintenance of
the American miners their condition In
many cases is most terrible. The Ameri-
can miner before mentioned had obtained
years license to work a certain tract of
what was thought to be paying land An
English syndicate, wishing to obtain a
large claim, made application and received
large tract of land in which was situated
the claim of the American who, on at
tempting to hold what he considered his
right, was practically frozen out. His Ii
cense was not revoked, bht the syndicate
having later one went to work and the
American abandoned his claim.
Consul Delaplaine wishes to advise all
persons who contemplated leaving the
United states to engage in mining in
Demarara to first make application to the
state department Mt Washington for a
copy of his report on mining, and thinks
that when ii is read all desire to 20 there
will be etfeCtltally obliteratel
