THE NAMES ACCIDENT
SAILORS HAVE CLOSE ESCAPE
 FROM SERIOUS CASUALTY.
Three New AldermAnic Canaidates Announce In Pensacola--Naval 0icers are Entertained by
 He Oscc0In Club.

Pensacola, Fla, April 25.--(speciai.J When the battleship Maine came ins to port from the target range yester- day there was a report started that she had suffered very bad accident. and the rumor went so far as to make out that men had lost their lives on the big flagship. This was the out come of what was known as ''blow- back" which had occurred In the tur- ret. and which burned three men, al- though not severely. The ship took an anchorage near the navy yard and her predicament was guarded with the utmost secrecy. the press especially being kept in ignorance of the trouble. Naval officers. however. will express an opinion and that Is the way the truth of the matter became public.
 While but three of the men were in- jured in any manner, there Is said to have been very close escape from q repetition of the terrible Missouri accident Of a year ago. It will be re- membered that this Is precisely how the Missouri blew up last April while at target practice. That ship was fir ing the big guns both for speed and accuracy when e few grains of powder remained in the bowl" of the bis rife. The blow-back came just as the powder charge was being inserted, and the awful consequences were forthcoming quickly thereafter, re- sulting In the death of thirtyrfour. Such a matter was looked forward to for prevention on the battiesnip Maine, and while nothing of the sort. had been expected. still measures were taken to prevent it. and this is given out as the sole reason why men were not killed instead of receiving burns. When the Maine entered port yes terday the fact that something had occurred on the ship was guessed at very correctly before the information became known from the ship. There was something In the very appearance of the vessel that made one believe that an accident had taken place Tne ship Is at the navy yard today stu taking on coal, and the details Of the nccident Is guarded with extreme se, crecy.
 The fact that this accident was con- fined to such a small comparative damage shows that the sailor IS now watchfu1 for anything in the shaps of irreguiariSy in the turret. but stiii never deserts his post for his own sal vation.

Controlling The Trusts

Editor Independent: Can our preSi-
dent be really DESTROYS of controlling
the trusts while yielding to the de-
mands of the father of ali trusts? All
of us know that the first and greatest
of all trusts is the money trust. or
syndicate Of bankers. That trust has
made possible all other trusts-the
presidents having loaned the banks
millions (without interest) thus en-
abling the banks to more completely
establish the different trusts.
And now having demOnetized every
thing but gold and few greenbacks,
the president has yielded to the de-
mands of the bankers-and says they
must go. Well. let them go.
The old soldier has seen one after
another of his idols demolished until
he is disheartened. discouraged and
.sliaeAStAdsws{l low foolish it was for the
soldier of 61-'65 TO Delieve lie v as Is
ing to preserve his country? What
he was really doing was to turn it over
to the money power of the world, and
himself and posterity with it.
Even some of Mr.. Lincoln's best
thoughts have been trampled in the
mud and mire. His idea that this was
a government 'tof. for, and by the peo-
ple,' and his idea that "the country
belonged to the people who inhabit it"
have proven mistakes. His fears that
power was growing up that would de-
stroy our liberties are being realized
Now watch! You will see the money
of the people from 1862 to 1879 Gre
mated and then the people will be told,
1T is just what you demanded by your
votes"
Another thought-The president
wants commission to have control
Of the railroads. The railroads want
these railroad men for that duty. An
other great scheme. And will it sue
coed? think so. The spirit Of the
times says give the people more power.
And this is just what the people are
not to be allowed to have. Keep this
thought in mind: Mr.. Lincoln was
fearful that the rights Of the people
would be encrOached upon until all
Of liberty would be lost. We have
closed our eyes and ears to the warn
ings that have come to US in a thou
