SENATOR DIETRICH
 FOUND NOT GUILTY
Has Not Violated Statutes or
 Acted UnworthiIy
CANNOT SUSTAIN CHARGES
Lease of the Building at Hastings Was Made While He Was Vet Governor of Ne
 braska.

Washington, April 1i.-Senator Diet special committee of congress to be not guilty of any violation of the statues of the United States or of any corrupt or unworthy conduct relating either to .fhe appointment of Jacob Fisher as postmas- ter at Hastings Neb. or the leasing of building in that city for a postofice. The committee which investigated the charges against Senator Deitrich was composed of Senators Hoar, Platt of Con nectcut, Spooner, Cookrell and Pettus. Three members of the committee are re- publicans and two are democrats. The report is unanimous.
 The report reviews the testimony at length and the conclusion is reached that the charge cannot be sustained.
 The committee with reference to the lease of the buildings at Hastings find that 1t was effected while MT. Dietrich was governor and before he became sem ator, that it extended ten years and that the governing such matters was not vio- lated. The report says the committee admitted not only such evidence against Senator Dietrich "as would have been competent in a court of justice, but also a great deal of hearsay testimony, being all which was brought to the attention of the committee as to a possible clue to further proceeding"
 This course, it says, was taken with the consent of Senator Dietrich, but 1t is ted that the committee did not de- termne how far this proceeding would have been justified for any reason, with out such consent, even if they had cere- fully refrained from attaching any weight to it in their final decision. But it did not, in fact. in the least tend to shake or affect the conclusion they have reached"

West virginians Launch Boom for
 Elkins for Vice-President.

Charlestown, w. Va, April 14.-The West Virginia republican state commit tee today instructed it's delegates at large for Roosevelt for President and Elkins for vice president. All the district conven- tions had previously acted likewise, mak- ing fourteen delegates secure in the Roosevelt column. The feature of the convention was the keynote speech of Scott, member of the national commit- tee. former associate of Hanna and promi- nently mentioned for chairman of the national committee.
 While the convention was harmonizing for Roosevelt and Elkins, the committee was engaged in a terrific battle for state patronage, with Dawson and Teter can didates for governor. as the principal fig ures The Teter forces on the committee dominated at the first session today and actually created two additional commit teemen to make them stronger. The Dawson forces were dumbfounded at this move and are now making a desperate enort to offset it.

Makaroff Was a Hero.

Chicago, April 14.-A special cable to the Daily News from Tokio gives a new theory as to the death of Admiral Maka- rolf The despatch says:
 Admiral Togo. 1t is surmised, while maneuvering his squadron of cruisers op- posite the entrance of the harbor for the purpose of attracting Makaroff to venture out despatched torpedo boats forward for a considerable distance on both Hanks to cut off the Russians re- treat. It is suspected that the advance of the torpedo boats was not observed by Makaroff's ships which were intent on the engagement wi;f Toso's squadron until so late that it was impossible for the fleet to regain the harbor.
 "Makaroffs reputation is taken to war rant the opinion that he interposed his heavily armored flagship to protect the retreating vessels, and thus saved the squadron at the cost of his own ship and life as well as the lives of nearly all on hoard 'f

He was born in 1S42 and had been a spectator and participant In several of the wars of recent years, led by his aim to paint war as 1t actually is. Among his pictures are battle scenes from the Russian war In Turkestan in 1867, the Russo-Turkish war in 1878, the Transvaal conflict, the Santiago and Philippine campaigns of the Spanish American war, and the Boxer campaign n China made from sketches drawn on the spot.

Makaroff Was Trapped.

London, April 14-No further news from Japanese sources concerning the Port Arthur disasters has reached Lon don. The Daily Mails Chee Foo corres- pondent declares that advices from both Russian and Japanese sources indicate that the battleship Petropavlovsk was torpedoed By a pretention of attack on the harbor by the enemy, Admiral Makar- off, says the correspondent, was enticed outside for the Japanese torpedo boats which crept behind him and awaited his return and dealt the blow as he was nearing the harbor on the return.

Have Received Submarine Boats.

Paris, April 15.-The St. Petersburg cor respondent of the Echo de Paris under this mornings date sends the following:
 'I learn that firm opinion prevails in naval circles based on telegrams from the surviving officers that the loss of the Petropavlovsk and the injuries to the Po- beda were caused by torpedoes launched by the Japanese and by submarine ves- sells.
 Hitherto it has not been believed that the Japanese had any submarine boats, but 1t Is now admitted that such boats might have been received with the cruisers bought from Argentina and brought out from Genoa by British crews It is difficult to verify this. but the admiralty is of the opinion that the cruisers brought out two submarine ves- sels."

MAYOR PAT COLLINS TALKS
Popular Boston Man Tells Story to Show That Washington Opinion for Candidate Is
 "Hoodoo."

Washington, April 14-(SpeciaI )-The republican ardor for an investigation of the postoffce department is somewhat cold today and it is not unlikely that even the investigation along the narrow lines proposed by some of the republican mem bers will not materiallze.
 The republican members of the com mittee realize that an Investigation what ever might be the outcome, would re- suit in keeping the fraud in the depart ment constantly before the country. The testimony deduced would be spread broadcast and more than offset any cred it which might redound to the party for undertaking an investigation. There has as yet been no agreement reached by the republican membership but it is expected that by tomorrow or Saturday an announcement will be made concerning the matter. The senate re- publican leaders are not in favor of an investigation, taking the ground that the least said about the fraud in the de- partment the better on the eve of a pres idential election.
 Mayor Patrick Collins of Boston, years ago a member of the house. was moved t) reminiscence today at the capitol when some one asked him who would be the democratic nominee.
 Back in 1876 first came to Washington as one of the Massachusetts delegates b the democratic convention" said the mayor We were all en route to the con- vention, and during stay in the city were handsomely entertained by the five democrats then in congress from our state.
 "They gave us a splendid dinner at the Arlington. During the evening the sub ject of the nominee was preached Tho Massachusetts delegates, myself among the number, expressed a conviction that Tilden was the man. Our Massachusetts congressman only gave us the 'hoarse hoot' They were very certain 1t would be David Davis of Illinois.
 But we went on to the convention ind there the name of David Davis was hardly mentioned. Ever since then l have been of the firm conviction that Washington opinion in the favor of any mans nomina- ton is a hoodoo."

One Man Blown Overheard.

 Washington, April 14.-It Is learned from unofficial authority that previous to the accident on board of the Missouri that there had been no flame blown back whatever that the rapidity of all the fire of the Mssouri's guns had been relatively very slow. in fact only half as rapid as that of the Alabama. The turret roof was not injured but one man was blown overheard from the turret top.
 Officers at the navy department was just remarking that excellent reports that were coming from the fleet at targes practice and noted with great satisfac- tion that the practice in craftsmanship had not been attended with an accident. when they were appalled, at the ~4saster on the Missouri. The reports from Pen sacola have been carefully read and it is manifest that the subject of gunnery will receive the graevst consideration. in view of the fatality that has resulted from the firing of the big guns. Those expert in such matters are scrutinizing the accounts of the disaster with a view to determining at the earliest moment upon some course that will preclude if possible or at least minimize the danger. As yet the experts are chary about ad- vocatng theories or suggesting what changes may be made In connection with
 
 the heavy ordnance.
 Naval officers fear that the absolute facts in connection with the explosion may never be known since all who were en- gagged in firing the gun were killed, but the circumstantial evidence will be suf- hcent to tell to the expert mind just what happened.
 The moment the news of the disaster spread throughout the county, teegrams from relatives of men on the Missouri began to pour into the department. mak- Ing anxious inquiries for the names of the victims. Some of these arc extremely pathetic.
 TeIegrams Sent to Relatives. The following telegram has been sent by the secretary of the navy to the widow of Lieut.. W. C. Davidson U. s. N, and a similar telegram has been sent 10 the families of each officer and enlisted man who lost their lives In the Missouri ex- ploslon;
 "The President directs me to convey you his sympathy in your bereavement in the death of your husband. while in the faithful discharge of his duty. Permit me at the same time to express my own sympathy and to assure you that you have that of the entire navy.
 (Signed) WILLIAM H. MOODY,
 Secretary" President Roosevelt has received the fol- lowing communication regarding the dis aster on the Missouri from the German ambassador:
 Dear Mr. President Kindly accept the expression of my heartfelt sympathy in the loss which America has suffered In the death of so many gallant officers and men of your navy.
 Believe me, Mir. President.
 Yours most sincerely.

Jumped Into Open Magazine and Closed the Door to
 Prevent Explosion
FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT
 IS ID BE INVESTIGATED
Three of the Injured Men Have Died, Which SWells the Death List to Thirty
 two.

Pensacola, Fla, April 14.-That the new est battleship of the navy, the Missouri. had a narrow escape from both being blown to pieces by the explosion of magazine and also being beached, came to light today. Captain William s. Cowles prevented the latter when the vessel was within 20 yards of the beach by giving or ders that the ships course be changed. Chief Gunner's Mate Monson saved the ship and the lives of over 600 men by Jumping into the open magazine and clos- ing the door behind him.
 It is stated, though not by officers of the Missouri that when the officers heard tho explosion in the turret and saw the fire leaping through the top they realized the magazine would next explode and headed the ship for the beach, intending to beach her if possible before the ex plosion. Captain Cowles quickly stopped the plan and put the ship back to sea. When the first explosion occurred in the turret the men in the handling room knew in an instant what had occurred. The big magazine door was open and standing against it were four charges Of powder
 Without a moments hesitation Gunner's Mate Monson showed these aside and jumped into the magazine pulling the door close after him. The magazine was totally flooded with water. and when ths men opened the door they found Menson barely alive, water having reached his neck.
 Damage Was Very Great.
 The damage to the battleship Is much greater than was at first stated. In ad- diton to the large amount of ammuni- ton ruined by the magazine being food ed which will amount to. thousands of dollars the after turret Is also badly in- jured, the top being burned away and all brass work melted inside. The hoist is a charred mass and the mechanics of tho guns completely ruined. The estimated damage caused by the explosion will reach s5s. .OOc
 The total list of dead now numbers thir- ty-two one man having died last night and two men today. It is hardly probable that other deaths will occur
 o. B. Moe. apprentice; J. F. Knight, seaman. and J. r. Donnelly, ordinary sea- man were added to the death list. The funeral of seventeen of the seamen occurred this afternoon. fully 5000 men from the fleet being present, while thous- ands from the city were in attendance. Flags over all buildings were placed at half mast Bodies of part of the remain- ing men and officers were shipped to their homes tonight Others are awaiting advces from their relatives. Three of the bodies inferred this afternoon will he dislnterred and shipped to their relatives.
 The Missouri will not continue her tar get practice but will go to New York to be docked as soon as the court of inquiry makes its findings
