WARSHIPS FOR HAVANA.
Not as n Threat, But as IA Preventive
of RIotous Outbreaks,

Washington, Dec. 14-The Brooklyn,
Texas, Castine and ResOlute have been
ordered to Havana. While there is not
the falntest desire to convey a threat
in the dispatch of these warships to
Havana, it may be noted that when
they lie within the harbor they will
hold the town In perfect subjection. 1t
Is surmsed that the suggestion came
from Admiral Sampson who is now in
one of the suburbs of Havana, as a
result OF the unfortunate eruption on
Sunday night at the Hotel Inglaterra,
At any rate the event brought the
authorities to a sudden realization of
the exact state of affairs in Havana,
and the imminent danger of another
such outbreak, which perhaps might
run into the proportions OF riot and
cost many innocent lives. With only
a small force of American soldiers In
Havana province, and those removed
at such a distance from the city as tC

portions by the advent OF many hun

PARSNIP COMPLEXION.

It does not require all expert to detect the
sufferer from kidney trouble. The hollow
cheeks, the sunken eyes, the dark, puffy
circles under the eyes, the sallow parsnip
colored complexion indicates it.
A physician would ask if you had rheuma-
tsm, a dull pain or ache in the back or over
the hips, stomach trouble, desire to urinate
often, or a burning or scalding in passing it
if after passing there is an unsatsfied feeling
as if it must be at once repeated, or if the
urine has brick dust deposit or strong odor.
When these symptoms are present, nc
time should be lost in removing the cause.
Delay may lead to gravel, catarrh Of the
bladder Inflammation, causing stoPpage, and
sometimes requiring the drawing Of the
urine with instruments, or may run into
Bright Disease, the most dangerous stage Of
kidney trouble.
DIR. Kimer's Swamp-Root, the great dis
covery of the eminent kidney and bladder
specialist, is positive remedy for such dis
eases. Its reputation is worldwide and it Is

Three known Dead and Many Nearly
Drowned by II sudden Flood.
New York, Dec. 14.-The great steel
gas tank of tile Consolidated Gas COM
pany, at Avenue A and Twentieth
street, the largest of it's kind in the
world, collapsed late yesterday after
noon. It went down with crash and
a roar like great explosion. Masonry
of granite blocks and bricks to the
height of so feet fell like a child's toy
bouse of blocks, loosened from bondage
100000 gallons of water, deluged the
streets and in a ten foot tidal wave car
ried death and destruction through the
surrounding neighborhood. 1t is not
known how many were killed and in
jured. The list of injured is very large.
The dead so far recovered are: An
drew Wendt, workman; Pious Baum.
engineer in adjacent factory John
Gray, rs years old. George Bremen, a
timekeeper, and 15-year-old George
Wrinkle are doubtless burned beneath
the ruins, as well as others.
The injured are: John Gray, rs years
old, watchman, skull fractured, will
probably die; Catherine OConnell, 1
years old, leg fractured; Mary Ann
O'Connell, 10. body badly lacerated !;
Timothy Dunn, So, general contusions
and submersion by water; John Wag-
ner, So, general contusions; William
Kane, face lacerated, general con-
tusons; Charles Quigg, 29, Brooklyn,
severely injured about body and face;
Peter Walker dislocated shoulder.
About Is others, so far as has been
learned, were injured more or less Sc
verely or almost drowned. All of the
most severely injured were taken to
Bellevue hospital by a number of am
balances that came to the scene of the
disaster in answer to general call.
James O'Connor, foreman in Fuld-
ner's factory, adjoining, and believed
to have been in the basement with En-
gineer Baum who was killed, is miss
ing.
Many people were caught in the
streets by the rushing waters and were
hurled hither and thither, receiving in
juries of various kinds.
w. j. Logan, of the Logan iron works,
of Greenpoint, l.. l., the contractor who
was building the tank, was placed
under arrest William II. Bradley,
chief engineer of the Consolidated Gas
company, and said to be jointly respon-
sible for the work with Contractor Lo-
gan, was also placed under arrest. Both
were charged with homicide and their
bail was placed at $4,000 each
The collapse of the tank caused the
rupture of some of the great water
mains which were constructed to feed
1t, and for some time these poured
their torrents into the street.
