Of Marine Thompson arriverd here this
morning from Paris. The roll of the
battleship lena. on which the disas-
treus explosion occurred yesterday,
was Immediately called, and 407 men
replied to their names. Those of the
crew who are injured are quartered
temporarily in the naval barracks. The
twenty four officers and engineers are
also reported to be safe, and besides
there are forty four of the crew lying
in the hospitals seriously injured. AS
the officers and crew numbered $50, 1t
will thus be seen that 153 are not ac-
counted for, but the naval authorities
consider it most probable that a large
number of these have sought refuge
with relatives or friends in Toulon.
Later in the day forty-one OF the
missing men turned up, leaving ia un-
accounted for or killed. The entire
town is in mourning and crowds gath
er about the gates of the arsenal and
