WARSHIP ILLINOIS
MEETS WITH ACCIDENT
Admiral A. S. CroWninshield
Reports Vessel Grounded.
Was Passing Into Christiania-Got 0d
With Comparatively Slight
Injuries.

Just before the close of office hours
yesterday the Navy Department re-
ceiv"1 a cable dispatch from Rear Ad-
miral 4. S. CrowninshIeld, commander
in-chief of the European naval station.
dated Christiaria, Norway, saying that
his flagship. the new battleship Illinois.
grounded while going into Christiania.
but got off with comparatively slight in
iuries. Admiral Crowninshield said that
1t would be necessary to dock the I'LL
nois 20 determine the effect of the
grounding and TO make necessary re-
pairs, and that he would probably 90
to Chatham. England, for that purpose
According to Admiral Crowrinshield's
report, the grounding was due to the
breaking down of the vessels steering
gear. This, OF course. left the Illinois
unmanageable. The vessel was steam
ing ahead at the time, and as soon as
the accident to the steering gear oc-
curreds both engines were backed in tha
hope OF preventing her from going
aground. The vessel touched bottom,
however, but the force of the reversed
engines was sufficien: to bring her into
clear water again.
