fumes of burned powder made 1t al
most impossible to enter either the
turret or handling room, but oficers
and men. with handkerohiefs over
their faces, made efforts to rescue the
men inside. Leading the rescuing
party was Capt. Cowles. The officers
endeavored to keep him from going
below, as men fell unconscious as they
entered and had to be pulled out by
their comrades, but unheeding their
advice, the commanding officer rushed
below, followed by Lieut.. Hammer,
the ordnance oficer, and Lieut. Gle
land Davis.
Capt. Cowles caught up a dying
bIuejacket in his arms and staggered
to the deck with him. The blue
Jacket with two others from the han
ding room, had crawled partially from
his place Of duty when overcome. Be-
fore the fumes OF the burning powder
had left the turret. officers and men
were lifting out the dying and dead
men.
Ten minutes after the explosion the
surgeons of the Missouri, Texas and
Brooklyn were attending to those not
dead.
Dead Lay I'm n Heap.
The twenty-five men in the turret
were found lying in heap. They had
started for the exit when the first
explosion occurred and had just reach
ed there when the more terrible ex-
plosion in the handling room occurred,
which burned and strangled them to
death.
Lieut.. Davidson, the officer in charge

Anton Bartusiakovis, an employee at

the opinion of the inspector, were in
ficted by strike sympathizers and
the wheels of a trolley. The men,
according to a witness who has talk
ed with the police, set upon Bartu-
siakovis as he was going home from
work. When they could not make him
join the strikers they broke his skull,
fractured his face, kicked him about
the head and body and then threw him
on the a tracks. The motorman OF
the car approaching not long after
ward saw the body in time to stop
the car but not before the wheels had
crushed Bartusiakovis' shoulder. The
injured man was taken to the county
hospital. He has not regained con-
seriousness.

Saturday and, under the rules, went
over until yesterday or today for
further consideration. This resolu-
ton recited the facts that the preser-
walton of the value of the state; road is
of vital impor5 to the state, that there
is on foot now well defined plan TO
build lines parallel to the state s
road and thereby damage or destroy
it's value. For these reasons the reso-
luton proposes to appoint commits
sion of experts, consisting of w. G..
Raoul, John NJ. Egan and Allen D.
Gambler, to make an investigation and
report to the next session of the gen.
eral Assembly such leg1slatio IN as, in
It's opinion, would best protect and
preserve the interests of the state.
The commission is to report whether
it would be best to extend the road to
the sea, to sell it outright or to con-
tinue it as it is at present. The mems
