A DISASTER
Attended the Launching Of the Big
Battleship, Albion. at Blackwell.

London, June 21.-During the launch
ing of the new British first-class bat
tleship Albion, Of l., $50 tons, at Black
well, to-day, by the Duchess Of York, a
ceremony at which the United States
ambassador, Col. John Hay, and Mrs :.
Hay and Lieut.. Colwell, the United
States naval attache, assisted, the dis
placement OF water caused an immense
mass of water to rise on all sides, COM
pletely .submerging one of the lower
stages of the yard and immersing hun
dreds of people
The Duchess of York and Col. and
Mrs. Hay and the remainder of the
distinguished guests did not see the ac-
eident, which occurred at the moment
when three cheers were called for the
successful launching and the cries and
screams of the victims were drowned
by the Outburst of hurrahs and the
steamer Sirens. The Albion is a first
class steel battleship of 1850 tons. 800
feet long, "A feet broad and drawing
25 feet 5 inches Of water. She is to
have 1850 indicated horsepower. has
two prCpellers, and cost about $4,000
0C0. The new battleship has eight inches
of HarveyiZed steel on her sides, six
inches on her bulkheads and from -
to Is inches on her gun positions. Her
armored deck is from two to three
inches thickness; her estimated speed
is nearly 10 knots; she is to carry 1850
tons CT coal; her crew is to number 7CO
men, and her armament is to consist
of four Pinch guns. twelve 6-inch
quick-fring guns, and eighteen smaller
qulck-flrlng guns, with five torpedo
tubes.
AT last reports thirty bodies had been
recovered. The victims were mostly
working people on a holiday who had
trespassed on the shipbuilding yard
where the launching took place. They
crowded upon a staging from which
they had been warned off, but the force
of police on the spot was inadequate to
control the immense crowd.
About two hundred persons were
thrown into the water when the stag
ing was demolished by the back wash
of the hugh battleship when she plung
ed into the water. Most of these were
rescued by the numerous roWboats in
the vicinity, but many were swept
away by the food tide which was run
ming and sank before assistance could
reach them.
About sixty of the spectators were in
jured and had to receive surgical treat
ment.
Many plucky rescues of drowning
persons were made by onlookers.
Heartrending scenes were witnessed
when the bodies of the children and
other relatives of those who escaped
the disaster were recovered and brought
to the land.
The bodies of five men, eighteen wo-
men and eleven children have been re-
covered
