Portsmouth, Va, March 10.-An ac-
cident occurred yesterday on the
United States cruiser Raleigh which
it was feared would terminate in the
same way as the accident on the Gin
oinnati. Steam was found escaping
from the forward starboard bunker,
which is next to the magazine. The
bulkheads were dangerously hot and
an explosion was feared. However,
the crew got to work quickly and the
coal was taken from the bunker. Then
it was found that no fire existed, and
an examination revealed that steam
pipe valve was leaking slightly. No
damage was done and no ammunition
was removed.
