HOPKINS DISASTER
TO BE INVESTIGATED
WATER TENDERS TESTIMONY
WILL BE IMPORTANT
Reported That He Informed Lieuten-
ant Frederick of Danger When
He Was Ordered to Stop
Working of Blowers
Isnecla1 to The Herald /

SAN PEDRO, Feb. 16. = Whether
Lieut.. E. Friedericks, commander of
the torpedo boat destroyer Hopkins, is
held to blame for the accident at San
Diego Monday, on account of which
one man lost his life and six others
were scalded, will depend much on the
testimony of the water tender in charge
of the boiler on the morning of the eX-
plosion, according to statements made
today by members of the crew.
The court of inquiry on board the
Hopkins took additional testimony to-
day. The members of the naval board
in charge of the investigation are Lieut..
Frank Cannon of the Perry, Lieut.. NJ.
X Metcalf of the Lawrence and En-
sign H. Jones of the Hull. The result
of their Investigations will be for
warded to the department. at Washing
ton without being made public.
There is much speculation among
members of the crew as to the verdict
It is reported that the water tender
informed Lieutenant Frederick. when
the commander ordered the blowers
stopped on the morning of the disa ter,
that one of the tubes was leaking and
that the men were in danger If the
blowers were not kept running.
without this testimony it is admit
ted that the commander of the Hop
kins could not be held responsible for
the men being burned, as a run to San
Diego from San Pedro had been made
only a few days before under full speed
and high pressure.
The stopping of the blowers had no
direct connection with the explosion,
but it is admitted that if the blowers
had been running the steam generated
when the tube bursted would have
been running out through the smoke
stark and would not have escaped into
working.
Members of the crew hold that the
commander should have kept the blow
ers running If he was informed of
leaky tube, although it is the practice
to shut them off when the boat is at
the dock or anchor.
