Meeting Of Two Emperors.

Berlin.-The meeting of the two en-
perors took place on the initiative OF
Emperor Nicholas. The prevailing
idea is that the Russian emperor de-
sired an outside opinion from n ruler
of his own rank on the internal sltua.
ton in Russia. His invitation to EN-
peror William is regarded as being the
result Of friendship and confidence in
him. Although the meeting is consid-
cred as being Of high importance for
Russia, II cannot signify any change
in Germany's policies toward Japan or
Russia Emperor William had not
seen the Russian emperor since the
autumn of 1903.

EXPLOSION OF
THE BENNINGTON
United States ship Meets Horrible
Catastrophe.

San Diego, Cal.-Broken and black
ened, with her flag flying at half-mast,
her hold filled with fifteen feet OF
water, the United States ship Ben
nington lies beached on the shores OF
San Diego harbor. Thirty-nine OF her
crew lie dead at city morgues, the fate
OF a dozen more 10 as yet undeter-
mined, and three score are stretched
upon beds of pain in various hospit-
ais. This is the result Of the explo-
sion which wrecked the trim little
naval craft and wrought such terrible
havoc among her crew at half-past
10 o'clock Friday morning.
On board the Bennington the un-
harmed members of the crew are
working under great difficulties to
reach the boiler room and coal bunk
ers where It is believed dozen bodies
are lying wedged in the wreckage or
submerged in the water which fills
that part Of the vessel.
The cause OF the explosion, so far
as ascertained. included boilers and
ID on the port side, but has not yet
been determined. There is much talk
among the crew, especially the ire
sponsible members, OF weakened and
leaking boilers, but until a thorough
inspection OF the wrecked boilers can
be made no definite official statement
is obtainable.
The Bennington. which arrived at
this port from Honolulu last Wednes-
day forenoon. was preparing to leave
port at half-past 10 Friday morning.
and only awaited the arrival OF Com
mander Lucien Young. who had gone
ashore on official business.
Suddenly there was deep-toned,
rumbling information, like a distant ex.
plosion OF dynamite. and the Benning-
ton was seen to keel and shake from
stem to stern. a dense cloud OF white
steam shot skyward and the entire up
per deck appeared to lift and then set.
tie back with a crash.
