Immediately ar cr learning the de.
tails of the accident Captain McCrca,
commander of the Georgia. notified
Rear Admiral Davis. commander Of the
second squadron of the Atlantic fleet
Df what had occurred. Davis ordered
an Investigating board to examine into
the causes of the accident. Until this
board makes its report the real cause
of the explosion viii be in doubt, ANA
it is doubtful if the board WI he able
to determine definitely what ignited
the cases of powder.
Two theories are entertained. one
belief is that a spark from a previous
discharge of the after turret guns
tloated back into the turret through a
gun port ana settled onto the powder
caSes Another theory is that the
spark that caused the trouble came
from the smoke stacks of the ship and
fOated through the gun ports. That Il
floating spark caused the trouble
seemed evident to naval men. but
whether it came from gun or a funnel
furnished topic for discussion.
