Children are not always grateful be-

other adults present were highly
amused, and some Of the children
deigned to chuckle mildly. The mother

 BALTIMORE. March S.-It was found this afternoon that the founda . tions of no less than three forts had been cracked by the explosion of lyE . namite aboard the Alumchine yester- day, The forts are Fort Howard, Fort Armstead and Fort Carol. Not only are the foundations cracked but it is also found that some of the guns were damaged so badly as not to be fit for further use.
 Reports arriving now from various quarters relate the most extraordinary consequences of the great explosion and it is clearly seen that such an eX- plosion occurring on land would have created the most awful havoc.
 The number of lives lost is found to be just about the amount telegraph ed yesterday.

BALTIMORE, March 1t is now learned that the results from the dy- namite explosion at Curtis bay were far more serious than they were at tir~t supposed to be. The most re- markahle effects were brought about chief amongst them being the sinking of the tug Atlantic. The dynamite was being transferred from barge of tn" British ship Alumchine by the steamship tug Atlantic when the ex- plosion occurred.
 The tug was so completely shatter- ed and so quickly sent out of sight that it seemed like a miraculous dis appearance.
 Another remarkable effect was that badly damaged boxes of dynamite, which did not go off with the explo- sion were hurled into the air. sent for great distances and exploded when thcy<rstTtrcTo 'Srvrril' of these caused minor explosions in various directions and created even more alarm than the chief explosion.
