STATESMEN
HAVE VERY
CLOSE CALL

NEW YORK, April 26.-Mis-
taking the U. S. yacht Dolphin,
with the house and senate COM
mittees on naval affairs on board,
for the target ram Kathadin, the
monitor Tallahassee came near
blowing a dozen national legis-
lators into kingdom come Fri
day.
The committee, consisting of
Senators Poindexter and Bryan
and Representatives Hobson,
Padgett, Foster, Bathrick, Rob-
erts, Witherspoon, Gregg, Butler
and Buchanan, was viewing the
target practice a mile from the
Kathadin, and in the haze the
Tallahassee mistook them for the
target and blazed away with a
IL inch shell. The missile
whizzed over the deck of the
Dolphin, cut a rope holding the
rigging and exploded just over
the water, giving the party good
wetting. No one was hurt.
