In fact, we knew just what had hap- pened. When one works around the guns he figures his chances and knows just what would happen if a charge were to explode prematurely ‘We knew that about every man in that turret was dead. There are only two small hatchways te escape by, and they couldn’t have gotten out if they wanted to. I had a friend in that turret. “Immediately after we saw the crew of hurrying to quarters. We knew that they would fieod the turret to stop any chance of the fire getting to the magazines below the gun deck “The Tennessee and Idaho diatély steod by and lowered hoats te give assistance if it was needed. Ships' doctors were sent obbard, The other ships of the fieet ulso were scurrying up, making 2 circle about the Mississippi. At first it was fearsd, I think, that the heat of the explosion would cause all of the guns in the turret to explods LS vith the chance that such an explo- «ion would reach the magazines and vreck the entire ship. “For mora than an hour the Missis ippi lay off San Clemente TIsland Another Explosion. One other gun did explode ana too, at the tragic moment when the bodies and injured men were being transferred to the hospital ship Relief after a race to port in the ©F wake of wireless messages that gave naval officers ashore their first inti- mation of the dieaster. That the second explosion did not send a projectile crashing into the center of San Pedro was due only to the fact that after the first blast the damaged turrét 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 pending word from their next of kin. Telogramas were sent (o those relatives: last night, He said that the bodles would be transported to their respective hom or buried in the National cemetery at ! Arlington, Va,, in accord with rela- tives' wishes. Fumes Cause Death. Inhalaticn of flame, gas and poison- ous fumes, rather than the violence of the explosion, caused the deaths, witnesses pointed out. The explosion itself did little damage. The flames which followed created the inferno in which the 48 perished. | Many officers and men aboard the ship did not know of the disaster un- til several minutes after it occurred. 1@ blast came at a time when other guns were roaring at the target, Three officers who died *were sta- tioned in a booth immediately be- slab zine increas: 5,986 tons in May, the Amgrican Zinc In- Stocks of ' JUDD & COMPANY Members New York Stock Exchange Members Hartford Stock Exchange HARTIORD-CONN.
