Mr. Dale has been so long familiar | with the doings of newspaperdom and. the actor-world that he knows whereof he writes, and it is with no uncertain hand that he paints these startling pictures of realism. His t finds its motive in the strongest human emotions and passions. sere is not a page where the inter- | is allowed to flag and his work this additional charm that it es a striking pen picture of a phase of life known intimately by czly the comparative few.

Testimony Shows No At- tempts Were Made to Test Dangerous Oil. The Coroner’s jury appojnt#d to inves- tigate the deaths of the eight laborers who were killed by an explosion of oil in the fuel tanks of the steamer Pro- greso on December 4 failed to discover the actual cause of the explosion as the result of the_testimony given yesterday, but it severely censured the owners of the vessel for accepting oil as fuel with- out making any tests to determine the danger, arising from its excessive inflam- mability. By the testimony of three witnesses— W. J. Gray, superintendent of the Ship | Owners' and Merchants' Fug Company; Fire Marshal Charles Towe, and E. T. ADVERTISEMENTS. ABSOLUTE SEGURITY.

It was‘ further admitted by Frank Evers, super- intending engineer of the Michigan S.eam- ship Company, the Progreso's owners, that this oll was received from the Union | Oft Company without any tests either for | its specific gravity or its flash tempera- | ture. ‘A theory to explain the presence of the, spark which set the deadly gases in ex- plosion was advanced by the testimony of Hugh McGill and George McNerney, who were on board the Progreso when the explosion occurred, but it did not have enough weight to warrant its In- | corporation in the jury’s verdict. According to the story of these two witnesses, Darby McGinley, one of the | mechanics who was killed by the explo- sion, was last seen boring holes for a stanchion in the top of the ofl tank and had a candle by his side. The sudden | rush of gas through the hole in the roof | flame of the candle, would instantly cause the terrible upheaval which o curred. Captain John Metcalf, surveyor for Lloyds' Register, was the first witness on the stand. He testified that he had | made an inspection of the fuel tanks| when they were completed and found no; leaks whereby a flame might penetrate to | the interior. His statements were corrob- | orated by W. H. Stewart, superintending | engineer of Lloyds. { W. L. Crigler, marine superintendent of | the Fulton Iron Works, testified that the | contractors were not responsible for the hasty loading of the ofl upon the ship | before the contract for converting the ve: sel into an oil burner was completed. | Frank Evers, superintending engineer of the Michigan Stéeamship Company, ac-| knowledged that the oil, to the extent of | from 400 to 500 barrels, had been received frosi the Dain"Ofl Campany without any | tests of its inflammability being made. said that of the nineteen feet of depth in the oil tank only about five feet vlas filled with ofl, thus leaving a large space | where the gases from the volatile liguid| could accumulate. He further certified | that the hatch on top of the oil tank was | firmly closed on the morning of the ex-; plosion. | The dangerous quality of the oil was/ shown by Fire Marshal Charles Towe, | who reported the tests made of the oil | which was in the Progreso's tanks. On | December 7 the oil flashed at 8 degrees | and burned at 138; on December 8 it flash- | ed at 86, burned at 145: on December 9| it flashed at 8 burned at 140. Accord- | ing to the marshal, oil for any purpose | is not allowed in this city which flashes | under 110 degrees, and any use of a lower | grade ofl was criminally dangerous. His | testimony was backed by similar state- | ments by W. J. Gray of the tugboat com- | pany. PThe danger of the Progreso’s oil was! given a conclusive test, according to the | testimony of E. T. Morris of the Oceanic | Steamship Company. He claimed that he | brought a sample of the Progreso ofl| with him, firmly corked in a bottle, but | that while standing near the stove in the | Coroner’s office the phial of oil explodtdl in his pocket. H. J. Jerome, agent for the Michigan Steamship Company; John Wood, the| Progreso’s cook, and W. Wilgrus also tes- | tified. The jurors who rendered the verdict on[ the case were: Robert S. Shepston, Frank | Sopas, F. G. Conklin, P. 8. Marshal, Os- car Judell, Richard Hock, Peter Grennan | and M. Sampter.
