Vicksburg, Miss, May 13-One OF
the most terrible river disasters of
recent years occurred last night about
twenty-five miles below this city. The
tow boat Harry Brown of Pittsburg,
upward bound from New Orleans. ex-
ploded her boilers at Il o'clock last
night. The boat was a complete
wreck and sank in less than five min
utes. Eleven lives are known to be
lost, including Pilot Norman bravo,
G. w. Bardsley, steersman; William
Dougherty, chief engineer; Miss Annie
Hess, chambernaid; Tom Judge, fire.
man; William Wilson, fireman; Will
lam Fitzsimmons, first mate; Pat Car
milf, second mate; William Kelley,
lamp trimmer; Frank Adrian and
John Wagner. ~.
The survivors and also the wounded
were brought to this city on the Hon
shell. Six of the officers and crew of
the Brown are in the marine ward of
the Vicksburg hospital, as follows:
Capt John Kline, hip seriously in
jured; William Grimme, carpenter,
leg broken; - Hardy, fireman, badly
scalded and otherwise seriously in
jured; Dennis J. Lonley, second engi-
neer, badly scalded and internally in
jured; will probably die.
Pilot bravo, who was lost, was OF
Pittsburg, and was a most excellent
man, whose death will be greatly re-
GREETED. The bodies of three dead men
who were brought here are at Fishers
undertaking establishment and have
been embalmed and will be sent to
their homes. The Honsheu was so
near The scene when the explosion oc-
Cured that her yawls were lowered
at once and were promptly manned
and saved many lives that would
have been lost if it had not been for
their prompt service. Capt. Kline,
the master Of the Brown, although
seriously injured, remained on the
after part of the cabin roof Of the
Brown, where he had been blown by
the explosion. He was seen this morn
ing by reporter and said: =. .
The after part of the cabin floated
off from the hull, and as it sunk to
the bottom of the river, directed the
efforts Of the men who were at work
rescuing the boats crew. Myself and
Pilot Dan Kane were in the Browns
pilot house when the explosion oc-
CURED. 1t would be impossible for
any one to tell how many of the seven
boilers exploded, as the darkness pre-,
vented any one seeing anything 1t
seemed that the hull went down in
less than minute. I have no blame
to attach to any one. as the cause Of
the explosion will never be known. rs
The chief engineer, William Daugher-
ty. who was on watch, was LOST
The officers and boat crew speak
most grateful praise of the officers and
crew of the steamer st. Joseph who.
contributed clothing and other sub
stantials. Capt. Kline expects to send
the Browns crew to their homes by
rail as soon as he receives instrud
tons from Pittsburg. The coroner.
here held an inquest on the dead
bodies and returned verdict of acct

Navarro, in conf ormity with the Pc
tition Of the prosecutor and sentence
Of the naval tribunal, approved and

ment that, in view Of the high state
considerations the cases of the fill
busters have been referred for final
decision to the supreme tribunal Of

ton, have arrived here in custody

Madrid, May 13.-The Spanish pre-
mier, Senior Canovas del Castillo. and

Hannis Taylor, had a conference. the
result of which is not known. 1t is re-
ported that Capt. Gen. Weyler has
cabled the Spanish government that
IT is impossible for him to proceed
with the war as he should, as the
Spanish authorities at every moment
are hampered by the Irritating med
ding of America in Cuban affairs. ;,
II is understood that the United States

claims for heavy indemnities through

by the insurgents. 1t is expected that
these demands will lead to further
