United States Local Inspectors Bolles and Bulger received the following report yesterday front Captain H. A. Harding, master of the Progreso: “On December 3, 1902, at about 9:25 2. m., on board of the steamship .Pro- greso, belonging to the Michigan Steam- ship Company of New York, lying at the wharf of the Fulton Engineering and Shipbullding Company, being converted |into an ofl carrying steamer, there was | an explosion in the fuel tank amidships, | which contained about 400 barrels of fuel | oil, breaking the ship in two and killing | six of the ship’s crew, and so far as we know six of the men from the shop. The | after part of the ship settled to the bot- tom with main deck just awash at high water, the forward part being partly afloat, and on fire fore and aft, making the vessel a complete wreck and a total loss, The cause of the explosion is not known.” John Cazatt of 2008 Jefferson street, son of an electriclan who was killed, stated to Coroner Leland yesterday that he had asked General Manager Spiers of the Ful- | ton Works to recover the body of his | father from the hold of the vessel, and that Manager Spiers said it was dan- gerous for the divers to go into the hold on account of the sharp, jagged pieces of | metal which might cut the air hose and { drown them. Splers said also that he \had engaged three divers, but they had | not appeared. Spiers denied all responsi- | bility for the accident or the cond of the bodies, and said that it was the affair of the Michigan Steamship Com- pany. The United States local inspectors have not yet set a date for the examination. | It is pot likely that an inquest will be | held until all the dead bodies shall have | been recovered from the wreck.

Emile | Bennett, convicted of an infamous crime, was sentenced to serve ten years in San Quentin. ———————— | Kennedy Trial Closed. ‘When the case of William B. Kennedy, | charged with the murder of Policeman | Eugene C. Robinson, was called in Judge | Cook’s court yesterday the defendant’s attorneys offered a number of objections |t the evidence submitted for the prose- | cution, but they were all overruled by the | Juage. The attorneys then said they | would offer no evidence for the defense and the case was closed, Arguments of counsel will be heard to-morrow and the case will probably go to the jury in the evening. —_———————— SOCIETY THBATRICALS.—A large crowd attended the society theatricals last evening ac Steinway Hell. ‘A Bachelor's Romance’ was presented, together With & very enjoyable musical programme. L o o i e e ) Two Liners Sail for South Sea The steamships Zealandia and Mariposa of | the Oceanic Steamship Company sailed yester- | day for Honolulu and Tahitl respectively.

Beautiful Art Supplement UST think of it! set a premium on old maids! The vexing divorce problem with one full swoop has been relegated to the limbo of forgotten things, for that rollicking, frolicking, extensive and sometimes expensive but altogether irre- sistible pride of American men—the American girl—has been forbidden to marry. All her girlish dreams of the con- quering hero and love in a cottage or a 2x4 flat, not forgetting the nameless joy of triumphing over the other girl who thought she had him, must now give way to a dreary, dreamless, drab existence, sans flowers, sans chocolates, sans the- aters-and all the long list of titillaing trifies that make life worth living for the wooable, marriageable maid. This is no joke. It is really, shockingly true, for Uncle S8am has said it, and what .he says generally goes. Of course, there Cardiff, via Honolulu 18 da: CLEARED. Saturday, December 6.
