SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION. Capt
Croker of the -four masted schooner
Charles L. Davenport, which is discharg-
ing at the Eastern Mfg. Co.'S wharf in
Brewer, says that ON investigation it was
found that the fire which broke out in the
cargo twice on the trip from Philadelphia
to Bangor and which necessitated scuttling
the craft at Rockland. was caused by spon-
taneous combustion in the coal and not
from a candle left by the ''trmmers,'' us
was thought heretofore. Capt. Crocker
says that the timbers of the vessel are
badly burned and the section in which the
burning coal was is damaged to the extent
of between $4,000 and $4,000. The Daven-
port will be taken to Thomaston and hauled
up for extensive repairs.
LAUNCHED. The greatest attraction by
far of the Old Home Week celebration in
Bath was the launching of the largest five
masted schooner in the world, William c.
Carnegie, to be commanded by Capt. Mitch
ell Reed of Boothbay Harbor She was
built by Percy L. Small for the j. Winslow
Company of Portland and is said to be one
of the best and finest vessels afoat. The
schooner Maud Palmer, launched at Bath
Aug. 10Th, is the ninety-eighth vessel built
by William Rogers during his fifty years of
business activity. Her estimated cost is
$4,000. She will be commanded by Capt
David Sumner of Thomaston, late of the
schooner Sadie Sumner. Mckay & Dix
were to launch yesterday from their yard at
Bucksport, in Verona, the four -masted
schooner Thallium. The vessel will be very
nearly ready for sea when she goes into the
water. She will take her stores, ballast, and
ship her crew at Rucksport and sail directly
for Greenland, and cargo of cryOlite. She
will be commanded by Cant E. l. Kent of
