DEATH CLAIMS A VICTIM OF THE CAP EXPLOSION John Burke Expires in Harbor Hospital. INVESTIGATION IS BEING HELD ARMY OFFICERS PROBING INTO THE MYSTERY. B — HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF CALI- FORNIA. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 23, 1890, Spectal Orders No. 201 A board of officers consisting of Lieutenant Colonel Wallace F. Randolph, Third Artillery; Major Robert J. Gibson, surgeon, and Major Robert H. Nobie, assistant adjutant general United States Volunteers, will at once assem- ble on board the transport Sherman to ex- amine into, report upon and ascertain the causes leading to the explosion on board of that | ship of a box of primers, the property of the | Thirtieth Infantry, United States Volunteers. | By command of Major General Shafter: b BABCOCK, Assistant Adjutant General. In accordance with the above order the board met early yesterday aboard the Sherman and held a searching investiga- tlon. From what can be gathered on the outside the blunder that has resulted in the death of one man and the wounding of three others was made at the Rock Island arsenal. At Fort Sheridan it was known a mistake had been made, but by it was not the transport followed. The ordnance supplies for the Thirtieth Regiment were sent from Rock Island arsenal to Fort Sheridan. At the inves- tigation yesterday the quartermaster ser- geant of the Thirtieth testified that he received the ordnance supplies sent for the boxes of cartridges was one | This box was | ing 100,000 primers. de and whether it got mixed up again with cartridge boxes and came on | to San Francisco or not he could not tell.
