HORRIBLE EXPLOSION
ON ENGLISH SHIP,

Liverpool, June 14.-Five men were
killed and some forty others were
wounded by a terrific explosion on the
British steamer Haverford, this morn
ing. Some of the injured it is believed
will die. The cause of the explosion
is as yet undetermined but there are
rumors that it was caused by an in
fernal machine. The Haverford, with
passengers, arrived here yesterday
from Philadelphia. The vessel which
is owned by the International Naviga-
tion company, landed her passengers
yesterday; and the stevedores were In
the act of loosening the steamships
matches when suddenly violent eX-
plosion occurred. 1t blew off the
matches, rent the decks and hurled
the dead and wounded in all direct
ions. Several bodies were dismem-
bered. Fire followed. The cargo,
consisting of linseed oil cakes, was
soon blazing fiercely, but after two
hours, the fire was subdued.
Another Theory Proposed.
The report that the explosion on the
Haverford was due to an Internal ma
chine arose from the finding OF a
wooden box foot square, in one OF
the holds. The box was only partly
shattered, and still contained pieces
of steel machinery. The officials OF
the International Navigation company
say they believe the explosion was
due to ignition of gas given off by
naptha soap, which formed a part OF
the cargo.
Latest Theory Given out.
Later it was said that the disaster
apparently was caused by the ex-
plosion of a barrel of naptha. The
death list now totals nine.

General Putnam's headquarters and
there he was surprised by the British
on the day of his famous ride down
the stone steps. The cottage was
bought five years ago by the the late
Colonel Henry H. Adams of Green
wich, who induced other wealthy men
to join him in presenting it to the
Putnam Hill Chapter of the Daughters
of the American Revolution. AT about
that time the chapter unveiled the
tablet on Putnam Hill commemorating
the Connecticut Generals ride. The
cottage has been thoroughly furnished
by the chapter, which raised $4,000
for that purpose several years ago.

tae nation could not have two new
states from the two territories.
Senator Money, who visited New
Mexico a number of times while his
son was a distinguished citizen of the
territory, charged sectionalism as
preventing two states from the two
territories. and provoked the senate
by declaring one western man to be
the equal of five men from the effete
east, mentally, morally and intellect
ually. Senator Bailey withdrew his
opposition on the ground that while
1t was not what he desired, any kind
of statehood is better than none at
all.
