Ottawa, Ont. March mot since
1896 has the dominion parliament ex-
oerienced such a protracted deadlocs
rs that which now exists over the
clause in the governments bill which
authorizes a grant of S35,000,0o0 to the
British government for building new
oattleships which are TO be an integral
part Of the British navy.
The house of commons has now beer
in continuous session for over three
days and the general belief is that the
deadlock will continue until midnight
on Saturday. The regulations of par
lament make it impossible for the
house to sit on Sunday. The deadlock
began on Tuesday morning when Pre-
mier Borden refused to concur in q
-esolution that the house adjourn.

The Alum Chine and the scow along
side of her were annihilated. The tug
Atlantic, which twice went to the res
cue of the imperilled seamen, was set
on fire and later sunk. The United
States collier Jason, just completed,
but not yet accepted by the govern
ment, was raked to the decks and her
armor riddIed. Buildings in Baltimore
and towns for many miles away were
rocked by the force of the terrific ex-
plosion.
The cause Of the disaster was un-
known tonight, but federal officers
have instituted an investigation to
place the blame. The excited sur
v:vors told conflicting stories Some
said a negro stevedore caused the ex-
plosion by jamming a, spike into a
case of dynamite. This was denied
by eye-witnesses, who declared smoke
was seen pouring from the ships hold
several minutes before the explosion
occurred.
At late hour tonight the bodies Of
twenty of the dead had been brought
to morgues here. Sixty Of the injured
are in hospitals. The estimates of the
dead included thirty stevedores and
checkers of the Joseph R. Foard Com
pany, employed in transferring the
dynamite from a barge to the Alum
Chine, which was bound for Panama:
eight members of the crew of the
Alum Chine, six men on the collier
Jason, and the captain and several
members of the crew of the tug At
