PAUL JONES' BODY ARRIVES.


Annapolis. July 25.-The John Paul
Jones expedition, commanded by Rear
Admiral Sigsbee. will complete its mis-
sion with the landing of the distin-
guished dead today. The eight ships
Of the squadron, four cruisers and four
pattleships have rested all day in the
anchorage OF the naval academy, lying
in double column, with the cruisers,
headed by the Brooklyn, nearest the
city.
The day has been without ceremony,
with the exception of the exchange of
calls between Admiral Sands, superin-
tendent of the naval academy, and Ad-
mirals Sigsbee and Davis and Captain
r. d. Gervais, of the French cruiser
Jurien de La Graviere.
On the half deck of the Brooklyn, in
spacious compartment at the entrance
to the cabin of Admiral Sigsbee, lies
the body of John Paul Jones, contained
In a casket of lead inclosed in another
OF wood OF handsome design, and drap-
ed with the colors. Constant guard
is kept by an armed jackie.
Admiral Sigsbse regards his mission
as emin atly successful and satisfacto-
ry. His squadron has steamed nearly
1000 miles without delay on account
of accident or mishap to machinery.

BENNINGTON Is
CHARNEL HOUSE
Gunboat's Boilers Explode While In
San Diego HarbOr.
Hardly Member of Grew Escapes
Death or lnjury-Many Bodies Yet
Wedgsd In Wrcckage Are Being
Sought by Rescuers - Cause of
Explosion Unknown.

San Diego, Cal. July 22.--Twenty
eight dead bodies are lying ct morgues,
on piers and on the deck of ruined
vessel of the United States navy, scores
Of men are lying grievously or painful
lv injured In sanilariums and hospitals,
and 15 sailors are missing and probably
have found death in the waters of the
harbor al the result OF an explosion of
boiler ON board the United States
gunboat Bennington at 1910 o'clock
yesterday morning.
The Bennington at the time Of the
accident was lying in the stream, just
off the Commercial wharf al the foot of
II street. The warship lad received
orders from Washington to sail for
Port Hartford, where she was to meet
the monitor Wyoming and convey the
vessel to Mare Island navy yard
Steam was up and everything was In
readiness for sailing, when suddenly
and without any warning whatever the
starboard forward boiler exploded with
deaiening roar. The explosion was
terrific. People standing on the shore
saw huge cloud of white steam rise
above the Bennington. Columns OF
water were hurled into the air and for
a distance OF nearly twice the height Of
the spars OF the vessel.
On board the Bennington the I'M
harmed members of the crew are work
ing under great difficulties to reach the
boiler room and coal bunkers, where,
it is believed, dozen bodies are lying
wedged in the wreckage or submerged
in the water which fills that part of the
vssel. The cause of the explosion has
not yet been determined. There il
much talk among the crew, especially
the irresponsible members, of weakened
and leaking boilers, but until thor
ough inspection of the wrecked boilers
can be made no definite official state
ment is obtainable.
1t was explained by those on boarc
that the wreckage was all below, bu
just how serious this is will be fully
determined only after a thorough ex
animation.

Spokane, July 25--Five military
convicts have escaped from the guard
house at Fort Wright. All of them
were men sent into the fort to serve
sentences for desertion from other army
posts. The names of the men are:
Frank Burton, Joseph Carroll. James
Collingwook. Herman w. Lamp and
Harry Linden. The outbreak was one
OF the most daring ever attempted al
Fort Wright. With from six to ten
guards in an adjoining room, the five
desperate men sawed through two iron
bars three. quarters of an inch thick.

WAR ON MOSQUITOES.
New Orleans Determined to Stamp
Out yellow Fever.

New Orleans, July 25.-The old time
strict quarantine established many
wears ago by Or. Holt went into effect
yesterday morning, aud will be enforce
ed with absolute impartialisy and with
the utmost stringencs against all Gem
trail American ports which are consid-
have been supposed TO have been in
force for some time past, but investiga-
ton shows that thny have been light
ened to some extent, and II lie to this
reason that the health authorities at
tribute the introduction of yellow fever
into New Orleans
These regulations mean that every
vessel from Central American ports
will be detained at quarantine six days,
and thus prevent absolutely any furth-
or cases of fever being brought into the
city.
The situation in New Orleans is now
thoroughly in hand, and it Is expected
that the quarantine will be lifted with
In q few weeks. Governor Blanchard,
Mayor Behrman. the United States
Marine Hospital surgeons from coast
ports and the city and state health au-
thorities met today and determined to
take the most stringent measures to
stamp out yellow fever and any disease
which resembles IL in New Orleans.
All unite in the belief that the moss
quito theory in the spread of the dis
ease is the only true one, and the fight
will be carried along that line, which
was that followed in Havana. No new
cases of yellow fever or any suspicious
cases developed today, neither were
there any suspicious deaths. The dis.
ease, which was met with scientific and
sanitary means from the beginning
seems to have run its course, and the
physicians are proud Of their work IN
limiting the disease to a restricted dis
trict.

JURY is CHOSEN.
Williamson, Gesner and Biggs to Face
Charges a Second Time.

Portland, July 22.-Twelve men were
selected yesterday morning out of 38
answering to the call of the clerk of the
Federal court, to whom will be given
what has proved to be the difficult task
of deciding the guilt or innocence of
Williamson, Gesner and Biggs, in their
second hearing, which commenced yes
terday. When the last man of the ~
was accepted by the government, there
remained but one name in the jury box
The jury was finally selected at few
minutes before i o'clock, Judge De
Haven having determined to fill the
panel before allowing recess, and
therefore holding court from 10 until
o'clock. Court was then adjourned
until this morning at 10 o'clock, when
half days session win be held and
the technical points disposed of prior
to the real commencement of the trial
Upon the opening of court yesterday
morning Judge Bennett asked in behalf
of Mr.. Williamson that separate trial
he granted his client, but the court
overruled the motion and ordered that
the three men be tried at the same
time, as in the previous hearing.
At the conclusion of the morning ses-
sion District Attorney Heney dismissed
the case against Willard N. Jones,
Thaddeus Potter, ct al, owing to de-
feet in the indictment. This case,
which is one of conspiracy, will be TAX
en- up once more, in all probability, by
a new grand jury yet to be called, and
a new indictment will probably be re-
turned.

STATE CASE TO JURY.



Portland, July 23.-The second traai
of Williamson, Van Gesner and bigss
on the charge Of subornation OF perlury'
has commenced.
United States District Attorney Hen
CIV has stated the case of the govern
nent to the jury, clearly, fully ana
forcfully.
The defense, through Judge Bennett
has told what ground will be taken by
bis clients in the battle to be fought
out once more, and has attacked the
position of the government and its at
torDey, has disclaimed guilt ON benaii
of the three accused men and has de-
claimed in fiery words of denunclatlon
that the government and its detectives
have harried the men accused from
pillar to post like worried rabbits IN
front of bloodthirsty dogs.
All is ready for the old story to pc
told again and this will be commenced
in the recital tomorrow morning at ~
o'clock when court will convene again.
In the meantime the prosecution has
told the jury what it intends to prove
and this statement reveals the TACT tnat
the defendants VIII have to face new
evidence not brought out at the former
trial and will be put still more upon
their mettle N establishing their lnno-
cencc. Mr.. Williamson will be proved
to have been in Prineville on June 10
and to have stayed there until June "a,
when the trial has come to his connec'
ton with the conspiracy, so that when
he testified in the last trial not to have
remembered his whereabouts he will
have this time either to admit or bring
counter proof to deny.

convictions, have served to convince J,
D. Cook, of Eugene, former clerk for
the Booth Kelly Lumber company, that
the defendants Williamson, Gesnsr and

providing the action should be taken
prior to 1920.

Ten for Conviction and Two for Ac-
qulttaI In Land Cases.


qulttal in Land Gases.
Portland, July 81 .--"1f you Will vote
for the acquittal of Williamson we WIZ
vote for the conviction OF Biggs ano
Gesner."
This in substance was the astounding
proposal made by Jurors 0. ii. Fiooks
OF Olalla, Douglas county, and T. v.
Walker, of Walker, Lane county, TO
their fellow jurors in the Williamson
Bigps. Gesnor trial.
For 46 hours these two jurors STOOD
firmly entrenched against the majority
finally securing the discharge OF the
Jury by Judge De Haven yesterday at
/ u. m. Both Flock and Walker are
constituents of Binger Hermann and
are said to be his warm personal friends
W. O. Cook, the Juror who was sup
posed to be for acquittsl, was in TACT
Arm for conviction. He was one OF the
leaders of the jury and his questions in
csen court, which seemed to indicate
| doubt in bis own mind, were asked by
him as spokesman for the jury in order
tho secure ammunition to use on their
refractory fellow members.
| In all, AZ ballots were taken, and In
the end it was as in the beginning, the
Jury standing 10 for conviction OF all
the defendants and two for the acquit-
tai of the three men who have been on
trial for week or more charged with
subornation of perjury.
District Attorney Heney Immediately
asked that new trial of the case be set
for the earliest possible day, and in
spite of the protest of Counsel Bennett,
for the defense, Judge De Haven set
the retrial of the case for today.
Judge Bennett made plea for more
time in order that the defense might
make additional preparation, but with
out success. Judge De Haven directed
that the drawing of the new jury be
commenced this morning, believing
that by the time the IL men were
secured the witnesses could all be on
hand.
The trials of w. N. Jones, Thaddeus
s. Potter, Daniel Clark and Ira Wade,
charged with conspiracy to defraud the
United States of public lands, had beer
previously set for this morning and the
action of Judge De Haven in fixing the
new Williamson trial for 10 o'clock to-
day, and his remarks touching the in
dictment in the Jones case virtually
sustained the demurrer filed by the
defendants attacking the indictment Oh
which the prosecution is based. FL,
said that the Jones case would prob
ably not be tried as he was satisfied
that the indictment was insufficient
but that he would render a formal de
cision this morning when court con
vened.

DEATH ROLL GROWS.
Loss of Life Is Expected to Reach at
Least Eighty-One.

San Diego, Cal, July 24.-The Ben
nington horror, which shocked an en-
tire nation by its long roster of casual
ties, grows with each passing hour.
Even the widest early estimates OF the
terrible results of the exploding boilers
aboard the gunboat have not been exag-
gerated and, instead of lessening the
extent of the catastrophe, later and
completer details have added to it.
The death list may be swelled to the
appalling total of four score before the
last word shall have been written and
one of the darkest pages in America s
history closed.
These figures, which at first glance
appear exaggerated, are made up of the
known dead, the probable victims
among, the injured now in the various
hospitals and the total number missing,
and are summarized as follows:
Dead at morgues. So; dead in the
flooded fireroom of the ill-fated war
ship, z; injured who may die, 10;
missing, Is. Total, 81.
The total of probable deaths of injur-
ed men is based upon the opinion Of
DR.. M. H. Foster, of the United States
Marine Hospital service, in charge Of
the medical staff, and the number OF
missing upon the statement of Com
mander Young. The commander be-
lieves the missing men were drowned
and that the waters of the bay will give
up this number of dead.
