WASHINGTON D C April t3Nine menand five officers were killed on the battleship Mis¬

souri by the explosion of a turret gun today The

Missouri was at target practice at sea J

A telegram reporting the accident was re-

ceived

¬

at the Navy Department It was signed by

Admiral Barker CommanderinChief of the North

Atlantic Squadron and is as follows

The following wireless message just re-

ceived Accident after turret of the Mis-

souri at idfO oclock this morning caused the T

death of nine men and Lieut W C DavidsonEnsign John J Rochfort Second Lieut J PVGridley and Midshipmen W EI T Neumann-

and T Ward jr The Missouri is coming in Ji J W-

fJr

The gun that blew up was One of the biggestpieces armamemt on the ship of a type similar-

tojj

those that have killed men on other ships ofwar by exploding at the breech

MISSOURI A NEW SHIP-The Missouri is a now warship She went Into commission only a f

short time ago and la commanded by Capt Cowles the brotherlnlRW ol jPresident Roosevelt whose tour o duty on board her since she vrm brought 1South for the winter manoeuvres in the Caribbean has not been fortunate

She collided with the battleship Illinois a few weeks ago and a sea ttragedy was narrowly averted The Illinois was so badly damaged that it 0

was necessary to send her to the Brooklyn Navy Yard for repairs and it-

iwlll

>

be months before she can go out to sea again i

Instead of calling a board of Inquiry to investigate the collision thematter Was allowed to drop It was charged In the Army and Navy Jourpal-

the other day that this was done through the influence of either the Presi-

dent

¬

or Senator Lodge who Is the Presidents bosom friend

The Missouri Is one of the finest battleships owned byitho UniteStates Government An act auhorlrlne her construction was passed InCongress In 1898 and work was becun at once She was launched at New-
