ner Company in charge of Captain
Frank Bettelle, was caught in a
tloe of ice in the river off this city
last night, had her bow stove in and
had to be run ashore to save her
from sinking.
The barge loaded with sand off
New Castle during the day. AT
o'clock Captain Davis OF the tug
Taurus gave her line and the tow
up the river was begun. When OPP
positc DuPonts pier the tug and
barge were caught in the ice foe
The tug was not damaged but u
large hole was tore in the bow of
the barge. She began to fill with
water and so rapidly did she settle
that Captain Bcttcllc was compelled
to summon the tug crew TO his pump
to keep the barge ahoat. The crew
worked for half an hour but were
unable TO keep the hold clear Of
water. TO save her they run her
aground. Then temporary repairs
were made. The barge reached
the wharf OF her owner early this
morning. She is now being unload

EXPLOSION ON
STEAM YACHT,

BY the explosion of the boiler
aboard the steam launch Cape ron
at Delaware City this morning
about fifteen persons were severely
scalded by escaping steam, the
more serious being:
Captain George A. Cleaver, scalded
face and hands. Injuries considered
dangerous.
Engineer John Swan, scaldedface
hands and body.
Assistant Engineer Samuel
Weaver, scalded about body and
hands and suffering from exposure
by jumping overheard.
James O'Reilly, badly scalded
about the body.
The wife of a soldier, nee Miss
Annie Beck, severely scalded on
arms and body. Had thrilling es-
cape from drowning as she leaped
into the Delaware and Chesapeake
canal.
QThe yacht Caperon is in the SER
vice of the Government and takes
workmen and soldiers from Della
WIRE City to Fort Delaware. She
was tied up in the lock OF the canal
last night. The people had Just
gotten aboard and the water was
being lowered in order for the yacht
to reach the Delaware when the
explosion took place. The canvas
on the Yacht had been fastened
down and consequently escape was
difficult. AS soon as chance
could be obtained there was a rush
to the side of theyacht and the men
jumped overheard. The soldiers
wife followed suit and owing to the
force of the water she was rescued
with difficulty. About fifteen per-
sons were in the canal and excite
ment reigned supreme. In the
course OF few minutes willing
hands were to the assistance of the
injured. Captain Cleaver seems to
be the worst injured OF the party
and his condition is critical. The |
skin peeled off his face and hands
and a quantity of the steam was
inhaled by him.
Engineer Swans face is in Il ter
riblc condition as the steam peeled
it,otf and the ashes are embedded in
the flesh. The skin was peeled off
his hands also, and parts of his
body are also badly scalded.
The soldiers wife was severely
scalded and the exposure bv her
plunge into the water has made
her condition worse.
Weaver was among those who
jumped overheard and onseuuently
is one of the sufferers OF the worst
type. The soldiers were taken to
the hosp tai at Fort Delaware on
another yacht and the Delaware
City in iured were attended at their
homes by Drs. Belville, Dunlap and
Edmunson.
The suffering of the people has
been intense. Owing TO the steam
Peellng the skin Oft, their clothes |
were removed with difficulty.
Groups OF sympathetic people gath
cred at the scene OF the explosion.
The escape of the people is consid-
cred miraculous.
