Second Explosion Occurs.

Second Explosion Occurs.
One other gun did explode, and that.
too, at the tragic moment when the
bodies and injured men were being
transferred to the hospital ship Re-
lief after race to port in the wake
of wireless messages that gave naval
officers ashore their first intimation
of the disaster.
That the second explosion did not
send projectile crashing into the
center of San Pedro was due only to
the fact that after the first blast the
damaged turret swung around so that
its guns pointed OUT to sea.
Communication Officer Morgan, at
tached to the battleship New Mexico,
announced early today that the
bodies of the victims would be kept
aboard the hospital ship Relief pend
ing word from their next of kin.
Telegrams were sent to those rela-
tiveS last night.
He said that the bodies would be
TRANSPORTED to their respective homes
or buried in the national cemetery at
Arlington, in accordance with rela-
tives' wishes.

With the most elaborate safety. pre-
cautions known in the use OF naval
ordnance and gunnery in force. naval
experts here are wholly at sea to
explain the cause of the explosion
in No. turret Of the battleship Mis-
sissippi yesterday. Any suggestion
as TO the cause would be pure con-
lecture, and naval officers are not dis
posed, in advance of the court of in
quiry to make any surmises.
1t is possible that out OF the IN
yestipation of the accident may come
the need for some new safety pre-
caution, but it is pointed out that the
loss of the officers who would be IN
a position to tell just what happened
may forever keep from the naVai e1per.s
and the public the real cause. Safety
devices that are foolproof and that
check back against each other are in
use aboard the ships OF the Navy. and
this makes it increasingly difficult to
reach a conclusion as to the probable
Tbe officer who was in the turret
and who jumped down the tube hoist

doubtful. The three guns are sepa-
rated by steel bulkheads or walls.
and this oflicer was .nt rSeateu hut IN a,oon one
side the barrel we'll forward of the
breech. where the tube hoist is 10
Gated. It is possible that he jumped
when he saw the flames and never
knew what caused them.
Only Accident OF Kind.
This is the only accident Of it's
kind in a period of more than seven
teen years. during which the most
elaborate safety regulations have
heen adopted and safety devices in
stalled by the Navy. When one of
the big guns is opened after firing
there is a gas election system which
forces compressed air through the
bore to drive out unburned frag-
ments Of powder and the gases that
remain in the chamber.
This OPENS automatically with the
breech, however, and should 1t be
out of commission. the man assigned
to look through the bore would not
report It clear unless the gas ejector
was working. In the event of failure
OF the gas etector, there is standing
Of water. This brush is forced
through the barrel to drive out un-
burned fragments of the powder bag
and the unburned gases. This IL
required before the powder bags for
the next charge even comes into the
turret. The charges are never al
lowed in the gun compartment until
all these safety precautions are COM
piled with.
without details as to what stage Of
the loading the gun was in when
the discharge took place. Rear
Admiral Claude c. Bloch, chief OF the
bureau Of naval ordnance, called all

SAN PEDRO. Calf. June 13-How
the explosion aboard the Mississippi
appeared to sailors on the decks of
warships near the scene was told by
members of the crew of the Tennes-
see and Idaho. superdreadnaughts
that were steamng in formation
about 1000 yards from the Missis-
sippt.
ut was just few minutes before
noon and we were expecting mess
call when somebody yelled: Look at
the Mississippi, said a sailor from
the Tennessee. All of the ships had
been firing consistently, their guns
. emitting a cloud of smoke from the
' muZzle followed by a tongue of fame.
But this was different. The num-
her gun turret on the Mississippi
was hidden in a cloud of smoke. Then
burst Of flame enveIoped it. We
knew something had happened. In
fact, We knew just what had hap
pened. When one works around the
guns he figures his chances anG

charge were to explode prematurely.
Knew All Were Dead.
we knew that about every man in
that turret was dead. There are only
TWO small hatchways To escape by,
and they couldn't have gotten out if
, they wanted to. ] had friend in
that turret.
Immediately after the explosion
we saw the crew of the Mississippi
hurrying to quarters. We knew
that they would flood the turret to
stop any chance of the fire getting
to the magazines below the gun
deck
THE Tennessee and Idaho i'm
mediately stood by and lowered small
boats to render assistance if il was
needed. Ships doctors were sent
aboard The other ships of the
fleet also We're scurrying up max
Ing a circle about the Mississippi.
At first it was feared. | mink. that
the heat from the explosion would
cause all of the guns in the turret
TO explode, with the chance that such
an explosion would reach the
4 magazines and wreck the entire
ship.
For more than an hour the Mis-
sissippi lay off San Ciemente Island
while her crew fought to control the
fire and recover the bodies of the
dead companions. We could see
them working near the tufret.

the charges Of powder is not inserted in
the plug until the breech is closed.
The turret officer is located at the
rear of the center gun, and has ouifs
eyes through which to look at the opera
tions of the two side guns. With him is
his telephone operator, but both are re-
ported killed. The ordnance experts will
await the results of the court Of in
quiry, which corresponds to the civil
coroner's inquest, before attempting to
determine the real cause, and they are
doubtful if any of the survivors have
enough information to enable any one to
determine this.
The guns were being fired in expert
mental target practice with low-pressure
charges, and it is not believed that the
breech was blown Off The fact that the
flames passed throughout the turret
would seem to indicate that the expio-
sion either blew down the dividing bulk
heads between the guns or blew the COM
municating doors away.
Details are to be forwarded to the
department by Vice Admiral Wiley

U. S. Collector of Internal Reve-

issued this week called attention of
federal income taxpayers to a dis
tinct measure of relief inaugurated
in the revenue act Of 1924, recently
signed by the President creating a
Board of Tax Appeals, composed of
twenty-eight members, to dispose of
disputed tax cases with speed and
decision for relief of the hardships
imposed under the former acts. The
number of the board members will
be reduced to seven at the expiration
of two years. This board is an inde-
pendent agency, as pointed out in
the speech quoted of Acting Secre-

mission, the Federal Trade Board,
etc., to act as a court of record,
available for appeal before the as
sessment of taxes by any taxpayer
