Explosion at San Diego, Cal

Maine Disaster.
MORE THAN 90 KILLED.
AS Many More Terribly In
jured by Steam---One
officer Killed.

San Diego, CAL, July %. The
United States gunboat Bennington,
under command of Commander
Lucian Young, arrived here Tuesday
morning after a voyage Of nine days
from Honolulu, and had been taking
coal with the expectation of sailing
Immediately for Panama to relieve
the Princeton. Last night Comman-
der Young received a change of
orders and was directed to proceed
at once to Port Hartford, near Santa
Barbara, to assist the Wyoming,
which put into that harbor day be-
fore yesterday in distress, having
lost a propeller blade and suffering
from a cranky shaft.
About 1890 o'clock, July q, while
the officers and crew, under direc-
ton of Lieutenant Yates, acting ex-
ecutive officer Commander Young
being ashore) were clearing the ship
ready for departure the after end of
the port main boiler blew out, filling
the ship with steam, bursting a large
hole in the deck, blowing out sever
al plates on the port side of the YES
sci and carrying away nearly all the
ventilators and rigging.
The ship was shaken from stem to
stern, the deck was covered with the
bodies of the dead and wounded and
with wreckage of every sort. A
number of men on the deck were
blown seventy-fve or a hundred feet
into the air and the remainder Of the
crew jumped overload to escape
from the steam. Several tugs, a
ferry boat and other vessels in the
harbor went Immediately to the
assistance of the Bennington and
picked up a large number of men
from the water.
A complete summary of the dis
aster may now be given with some
degree of accuracy. The total num-
Der of casualties are placed at 10,
as follows:
Known dead, forty-nine; dead be-
lieved to be in flooded compartments
of the vessel, seven; now at hospitals
under treatment, fifty-four; total,
10.

DENIALs ARE USELESS.
Messrs. Caldwell and Hume
to Be Given One More
Chance to Tell Truth.

The mystery of Richard Wilder,
the letter-writer, of Evansville, is
about to be solved.
Inasmuch as Messrs. Caldwell and
Hume deny having knowledge that
Wilder is in their employ, we would
suggest that they confer with
Manager Catlett, Of Evansville, and
Manager Mitchell, of their Madison
vile exchange.
Mr.. Wilder was registered at the
Hotel Lucille, jacksonville, last Fri
day, and was seen in close confer
ence with Mr., Mitchell.
1t seems useless to further evade
answer ing the question as to wheth-
er or not Wilder is an employee of
the Cumberland Telephone Company.
However, the Home Telephone Com
pany will give Messrs. Caldwell and
Hume two days longer to answer
the questions propounded to them in
regard to Wilder, whose letters were
circulated in their interest.

Ten Per Cent. Re
ductiOn in Kentucky
Acreage.

The new report on the acreage of
the tobacco crop which is just given
out at Washington shows that the
figures heretofore made up were
wrong. 1t shows that the acreage
in the reggie and hurley tobacco dis
tricts is very much less than was
shown by the previous report. In
Kentucky the revised report shows
about a ten per cent. reduction in
the acreage compared with the first
report. The Department vouches
for the revised figures.

not be reached in time for him to
get here until tomorrow.

today at a o'clock at the Episcopal
church, conducted by Rev Geo. c.
Abbitt. The remains will be tenn

John c. Latham, ST., being only FIVE
years old at that time She is sur
vived by her aged mother and one
brother.

HER MINIATURE UNIVERSE.
According to Lady Blount's astronomy
the sun, moon and planets all revolve
daily at comparatively short distances
around and above the earth in spiral or
bits, approaching more or less closely to
exact circles. These motions are all at
tributed to 1.-The circling currents OF the
ether" which fill the space between the
fiat, disk-shaped earth and the solid
dome that overlays it like dish cover.
LAS these electromagnetic currents
have different rates of notion says Lady
Blount, the various heavenly bodies are
carried daily around the earth in differ
ent times, some in less and others in
more than twenty-four hours" That half
the earth Is in darkness while the other
half has light is attributed to the small
size of the sun, which Is insufficient to
illuminate the whole surface at once.
1t is against the assumption" as
they call 1t, of scientists that the earth
is a globe that the Zetetics wage their
stiffest fight To support their conten-
tion that is plane they do not depend
on Bible cosmogony alone. They de-
clare they can prove 1t by facts which
can be easily tested. 1t can be demon
strated, they contend, that water Is

stretch of water six miles long. Pro-
fessor Proctor, the noted astronomer,
once said: "If with the eye few inches
from the surface of the Bedford canal
an object close to the water six miles
distant from the observer can be seen,
there manifestly would be something
wrong with the accepted theory"
Lady Blount asserts that she has
proved, and proved by the camera, that
this six miles. of water is absolutely
level and consequently the army Of
zetetics are right in their contention
that the world is not globe"

and its reelection in the water beneath
