TWO FATALLY INJURED
National Guardsmen Hurt by AcG-

Two privates of the eth Regiment OF the ma

Island were probably fatally injured last night by
an accident to the 6-nch gun they manned in an
attack on the Staten Island forts by the fleet which
is supposed to be forcing New York Harbor.
The men injured Privates Harvey and
Welsh of the 18th Company, 9th Regiment, Coast
Artillery. N G. N. Y. Both said to be green
men, who have enlisted In the last year, and whose
sole practical experience in the handling of big
guns has been gained during the present encamp
ment at Fort Wadsworth
The accident came when the mimic war at
its height. An attack was expected by the de-
tenders of Fort Wadsworth. and a few minutes
after 10 O'Clock. when every mans were
strained in looking for the enemy's fleet the
great searchlights of the fort suddenly disclosed
two battleshps stealing along. five thousand yards
off the Staten Island shore.
The order to fire given once and the
whole fort burst into line of flame as the roar
of the guns broke out. A moment later came
groans and shrieks of anguish from Battery Dix
Those who to the thought at first that
one of the six-inch guns had burst and killed all
around it, fora of bodies lay about the gun
1t was found. however, that only two men
were IN a serious condition. the others, however.

spot.
The two men were taken to the army hospital
in ambuances after everything that could be
done for them in the battery had been attempted.
and Father Cronin of st. Marys Roman Catholic
Church followed the ambulances and administered
the last rites OF the Church to the wounded men.
The regular army officers at the fort were most
reticent to the nature of the accident and It's
possible causes last night, refusing absolutely to
say anything about it. The varying stories seemed
to agree only point in the main, and that
that the gun itself had not exploded.

Earth, He Tells Them.

One hundred and ffty-three new Bachelors Of
Laws were created at Carnegie Hall last night.
when the annual commencement OF the New York
Law School took place Nine former graduates
received the degree of Master of Laws.
Judge Hough of the United States District Court
delivered the address, taking his subject "Voca-

Judge Hough said:
You must feel that to the law your calling is

trades on earth. Take it up a profession. and
not as Z trade You will never succeed at the
