Boiler Tube Exploded on the Des-
trOyer Hopkins.
EIGHT MEN IN BOILER ROOM


San Diego, Cal, Feb. 15.-Seven mel
were badly burned, two possibly IA
tally, by the explosion OF Q boiler tub,
In the forward Are room Of, the tofped.
boat destroyer Hopkins, All Of thu
injured now are at hospital In thii
city.
Three OF the men were burned In {
heroic effort to rescue their screaming
companions In the fire room.
At the time Of the accident there
were eight men In the forward boiler
room. When the tube slipped, allow
ing the steam to escape into the fire
room, six OF the men rushed for the
port hatch, one of the remaining two
men making his escape up the star
board ladder and the eighth man,
Brown, saved himself from death by
jumping into the coal buhkers, from
which he emerged after the blowers
had been started and the fireroom
cleared Of the steam.
There was not sufficient concnsslon
when the tube pulled out to warn the
officers and other members Of the crew
who we're at breakfast, that an acct
dent had occurred. The first that the
other men Of the crew knew of the
accident was when the seven men
from the hre-room climbed out on the
deck and yelled for assistance. At the
time Of the accident the Hopkins was
moored alongside the destroyer Perry.
Oficers and men from the Perry hur-
rled onto the deck Of the Hopkins and
the applying of the 6rst
aid TO the injured was started.
The alarm Of FIRE was sounded at the
same time and the ofIicers and men
called to quarters. Perfect discipline
was maintained Efforts were made to
shut on the cook which controlled the
slipped tube, and TO start the blowers

Of the steam. In the effort to start the

tender, and s. L. Almons, a machinist'S
mate, proved themselves heroes Bon.
nsy made an attempt to descent into
the flreroom and start the blowers,
despite the fact that clouds Of iScald. |

open matches. The terrific heat drove |
him back, however. Then laying upon |
he dsck, he called to two sailors to |
hold him BY the feet and lowerINhile

blowers. Almons, with the aid of two
Iailors, performed the same feat on
ne other side Of the ship. Both at
ompts were successful and in D few
