The British ships Mooltan and Glenesslin, which have been at Port Costa and came down from there for the same purpose, are also lying in the stream on acccunt of the labor troubles on the Car- quinez Straits and in this city.

This can- not ‘be moved until the present contro- versy is ended. None of these vessels have attempted to go alongside of 'the dock and none will for the present.

Pisa, a gunsmith whose place of | business is at 320 Broadway, had an ex- | perience yesterday with a dangerous ap- | paratus—a shell-loading machine. That | he was not killed in an explosion that | wrecked a portion of the interior of his shop and shattered its windows, as well | as those in adjoining bulldings, seems miraculous. He was seated at the ma- | { chine loading cartridges when the powder | | chamber exploded, but walked out of | the ruin well and sound, except for a few | minor cuts and bruises. | Pisa was at work feeding powder Into | the empty shells. He had a number of | them aiready loaded, on a shelf near by, when one for some unknown reason ex- | ploded. The concussion caused the powler | {in the chamber on the machine to ignite { and Instantly there was a deafening report | | and the room filled with smoke. Pisa was | knocked to the floor, but to his surprise | found that he had not been injured. As | soon as the smoke cleared away he | walked to the door and met a large crowd | that had been attracted by the noise, and then surveyed the wreck of his shop. Tools had been scattered about in dis- order and woodwork shattered. The iron of the machine was twisted and separated and windows were broken. The shock shook buildings in the neighborhood and glass in an adjoining store was aiso cracked. ~ | A queer-looking contrivance found in the doorway of the saloon of Thomas F. | Hayden at Broadway and Kearny street was turned over to the police yesterday morning and will be examined by experts.
