TUBE BURSTS ON BATTLESHIP
Accident Interferes with Second Test
of the Dakota.
OUR MEN ARE sCALD
Speed for First Three Hours Well
Above Contract Requirement and
Equal to It Last Hour with
Four Boilers Out.

PORTSMOUTH, N. H, Nov. 5.-As the
new battleship North Dakota was COM
pleting it's four-hour endurance run at a
twenty-one-knot gait Off the New England
coast today, with the battleship speed
championship OF America almost in its
grasp, a boiler room accident robbed II Of
the laurels and sent It scurrying into this
port to land four injured men, The big
ship, nevertheless, exceeded its contract
requirement of 21 knots an hour making
All in the first two hours, 2164 In the
third hour and 21 knots flat as It hurried
in on the fourth hour to this port
The injured men are:
William II. Grange, water tender
John Souden, coal passer.
A. Peterson, fireman.
Peter Mcconnell fireman.
Souden was badly scalded, and when
landed this afternoon was suffering In
tensely.
Tho North Dakota logged out Of port
shortly after sunrise today, and at ]
o'clock it was we'll south of Mohegan
Shortly after the trial began On the first
two hours the engines developed $1,000
horsepower and the water rate was well
above the contract A few minutes after
the battleship had passed Cape Ann and
while IL was entering the fourth hour OF
its test, a seven-inch tube In one OF the
lower row Of boilers blew out and filled
tho room with steam. The engineers i'm
mediately cut off four of the fourteen
boilers AS soon as the extent OF the in
jures Of the flremen had been asceTtained
the North Dakota was swung around and
headed back up the coast for this port
where II was known a good harbor could
be reached shortly after the expiration OF
the time limit. All OF the injured men
bravely urged the engineer force to dlsre-
gard their injuries and keep the battleshiP
on it's work. Under the ten boilers twenty
one knots was maintained for the balance
of the time, and at o'clock the North
Dakota steamed into this harbor and sent
the injured men ashore.
The defective tube was replaced and ar
rangements were made TO leave at mid
night for the Neutrality-suspicious. run at a
speed Of nineteen knots an hour
The battleship is expected at Boston
lghtship at midnight tomorrow and dur
ing the run It will be decided whether
there will be a continuation OF the trials
and whether the four-hour test will be re-
peated.
Although the North Dakota fulfilled its
contract today, its builder the Fore River
Ship Building company OF Quincy, Mass,
Is anxious to see what It can do on four
hour test with its usual steam equipment

Education.

New York today, was a special car carry
ing Senator Nelson W. Aldrich, who is just
beginning his Compromised tour OF the

"Enemys country" said the senator, re-
peating an inquiry Il cont know that
there is an cnemys country. l am going
west to find out. We are beginning a great
undertaking in connection with our finan-
clal system and all Of our ninety millions
Of people are interested.
Il want to ascertain the sentiment OF
the entire country Of the west as we'll az
the east / go to learn rather than to
teach, or rather, I should say, to cultivate
a friendly relationship.
Il want the people to know what oui
aims are, to be intelligent about our work
and to be prepared to cooperate with us
I hope and believe we shall not find al
enemy's country"
The Aldrich party, which includes Assis-
tant Secretary Of the Treasury Norton, is

The Journey will take about two weeks
and the itinerary includes stops at num-
Der Of important cities of the middle west

The senator has found It necessary to de-
cline invitations from some political or
ganizations, including the Hamilton clul
of Chicago, because the tour is Of purely
business and official nature, the senator
maintains.
