BURNEDTO THE WATERS EDGE
The Ship Blengfeli Destroyed
Off Margate Monday.
OFFICERS and CREW Persisted
The Captains Wife and Child
Also Lost.


Margate, Eng. Oct II. The British
ship Blengfell, Capt. Johnston. from.
New York, on September 10th. for Lon
don, was destroyed by fire off this place
this morning. Nine of her crew. in
GLIDING the pilot, persisted. The sur
yivors were landed here and at Dover.
Later, it developed that the captains
wife and child and the first and second
mates were among those who lost their
lives.
The Blengfell was passing here, in
tow, on her way to London, at about
6. 80 o'clock, and was about four miles
off the coast. Suddenly, she was en-
veloped in flames, and smoke poured
from her hatchways. Two lifeboets
Immediately put off to her assistance,
but, before they were able to reach the
burning vessel, her masts fell, and sha
was burned to the waters edge. Her
hull eventually drifted upon the Good
win Sands.
The Blengfell had a quantity OF
naphtha on board, and the smell of it
was strong during the voyage, especially
aft, so much so that the officers of the
ship had to shift their quarters last
evening. An explosion occurred Just
as the captain of the Blengfell had en-
gagged the services of q tug, which
took aboard the survivors. The vessel
burned SO, quickly that her crew had
no time to lower the boats.
The Blengfell was an iron vessel,
built at White Haven in 1876. She
registered LII tons, hailed from
Liverpool and was owned by j. Edgar
a. Co.

Major John M. Carson, the veteran
Washington correspondent of the Phila-
delphia Public Ledger, met with an
unpleasant experience in this city on
Saturday evening. The major was re-

the train stopped at the Delaware
avenue station, Major Carson got off
to take an hiring While he was thus
engaged, the train started.
The major had wired ahead that he
expected to be home on that train and
he made strong effort to board it,
but it was going too fast for him and
he was unable' to secure foothold on
the car platform. He held on so hard,
however, that his left arm was pulled
out OF joint. Then he let go and fell
striking on the side and bruising his
face. ~
The train did not stop and he was
left in a somewhat dazed condition at
the station. He was taken to Garrett
s. Smith sdrug store, opposite the sta
ton, and DIR. John Palmer, Jr., the Bal
timore & Ohio railroad surgeon, was
summoned. The majors arm was pulled
back into place and he was able to
take the 6.04 o'clock train for home.

hold 40 men," he writes, land l never
told the men they could go if they
secured subs, until l had filled my COM
pany. Sergeant Percy L. Henderer was
the first man to whom made the state
rnent that if he secured sub he could
be released. At about the same time
told several other men the same thing.
But before that time never intimated
any such thing and tried to do all in
my power to get those out who
thought were needed most at home.

six married men. Next looked after
those who were the support of their
parents and found three. That was
nine men altogether. At first / was

securing nine / was still short of the
quota ordered for the strength of each

II went to the colonel for advice, as
did the other officers who had been
ordered to remain. He told us that we
would have to take enough men to fill
up the companies. told him that the
men released had secured subs and any
other men could not be found. He in
structed us to obtain enough subs to
fill our companies and keep the best
men, as we wanted good battalion.

A being retained. In fact, I went to
the colonel the day after the orders had
been received, and, in the presence Of
Capt. Lank of Co. b, told him how
discontinued the men were; also, that
we would rather return home than re-
main with a company of men who were
dissatisfied. y
"After this statement had been made
to the colonel, he read to us the order
he had received, to select battalion
from the regiment, and stated that Cos.
A, B and M had been selected, We
were instructed to go ahead and do the
best we could. ! did the best that
could possibly be done. 1t took many
men to make up the quota required for
each company.
"There are only about % men in the
battalion now who desire to get out,
and hope it will be possible to allow
them to go home, because l want men
who are willing to remain and who'will
be satisfied. The colonel did his duty,
