?MOTHER ll DISASTER. This Tine it Bid Not Result From Carelessness. 12? EON ON THE IOWA BURSTS During Target Practice-Three Men Killed and Five Injured Two of Them Seriously. Pensacola, Fla., April 9.-A disas? trous explosion occurred on the bat? tle ship Io? a today while the vessel was at target practice in the Gulf. The forward port twelve-inch gun burst from the premature explosion of a shell, twelve feet of the piece out? side the turret being demolished. ' Three men were killed and five in? jured, two seriously. The men killed and injured were on the second, or gun, deck at mess. .Three pieces of the exploded gun, each weighing over a ton, passed downward through the sps.r deck, f?ll? igen upon the men at mess, instantly killing three of them. All of the men were horribly mutilated. The heavy missiles after passing through the gun deck continued down to the third deck, where they came in contact with the armored deck, the heavy steel bringing them to a stop, thus saving the engineers and firemen who were at work below. Although the upper decks were crowded with men no one there was seriously injured. The explosion occurred just as the mess call had sounded ; firing was to have ceased after the shot, for dinner hour. The range had been set and the Iowa was steaming along at a speed of 12 knots an hour, when .Lieut. Seed, in charge of the forward 12-inch turret, gave orders; to load and fire. The time fuse was cut for the range, the piece charged, breech clos? ed and the word given to fire. Fol? lowing the report of the gun there was a smothered report as the shell ex? ploded midway in the gun and pieces of the bursted gun and ' shell were scattered broadcast. Three great holes were torn through the deck. Those who- were below began coming up on deck, some bloody and mutilat? ed, while lying on the floor, crushed almost beyond recognition, were the three unfortunate men.. The Massa? chusetts, six miles distant, was sig? nalled for aid,; and one of the cutters .put off with the surgeon and assist? ants. The wounded men were taken to the hospital and their injuries dressed. The dead were brought to Pensacola. Some claim the explosion was caus? ed by a defective shell and others think that the frequent firing of the pieces ai Culebra during the winter, added to the work done here during the past ten days, so strained the piece that the force of the charge bursted the . gun. $7,000 for Kershaw Roads. We told you last week, that we were persuaded that something was going to happen for the improvement of our public roads. $7,000 is practically as? sured for the Charleston and Bishop ville roads. This is good enough for one days work. Yesterday a committee from the country and a committed from the Camden Board of Trade, had a con? ference with the county commission ers. A direct proposition was made that if they would make an appropria? tion of $5,000 for the Charleston and Bishopville roads, the citizens of Camden ,and Kirkwood would supple? ment this amount with $2,000. This proposition was agreed to. Last night a committee waited, on the City Coun? cil to ask for an appropriation. They presented a petition signed by a large number of taxpayers, which amounted practically to an election upon this question, requesting an appropriation. The committee found City Council anxious* to co-operate with them, and left the council room, after a full dis? cussion of the subject, with smiles on their faces, which indicated the grati? tude they felt at their cordial recep? tion. Another meeting of council will be held next Monady night,, by which time th? committee will . be able to report approximately what they can raise from individual subscriptions. The ball has been started tc rolling for good roads, and no one need try to stop it, for goods reads vre are bound to have. Mud puddles, bog holes, water and sand we have had long enough. $7,000 as a starter. The Charleston road will be built up first, and then the Bishopville road. After that other roads will receive attention.-Wateree Messenger. The Arkansas Scandal. ' Little Bock, Ark., April 9.-The ways and means committee of the House of Representatives has filed its. report on the investigation pending against Governor Jefferson Davis by Attorney General George W. Murphy on behalf of the State penitentiary board. The report, which is a voluminous one, is accompanied by about a thou? sand typewritten pages of evidence. The committee is divided in its find? ings, seven of the eleven members signing the majority report, finding certain charges sustained by the evi? dence, the three principal being the alleged misuse of contingent funds; use of a private - car furnished by the Choctaw Railroad, and acceptance of coal from a concern which was supplying the State institutions, no evidence being introduced of intention to pay for it. Three members signed a report exonerating both Governor Davis and the members of the peniten? tiary board from any action of a criminal nature. A motion was defeated in the House to postpone further consideration of the reports for one week. If the majority report is adopted impeach? ment may follow.

THE MISSISSfPPI FLOOD. Hope of Closing the Hymelia Cre? vasse is Abandoned-Planters Building Levees Around Their Own Places. New Orleans, April 9.-Hope of clos? ing the Hymelia crevasse was practi? cally abandoned today by Senator Brady and those who have been associated with him. All day a terrific current swept around the broken ends of the cribbing and through the great 700 foot gap in the levee, undermining the light piling which it had taken thirteen days and nights to build. Early in the forenoon it became evi? dent that any effort to build fresh cribbing to join the ends would be futile and every energy was directed to protect what was left. It is understood that a complete sur? render will be made to the river to? morrow if the experiment of driving Se wall piling across the break in the cribbing fails. A delegation from the crevasse came to the city early today and made purchases of this piling, which will be sent forward tomorrow. It is considered, however, that not one chance in a thousand to close the crevasse remains. The levee board has practically reached the end of its re? sources and planters are withdrawing their hands in order to build protec? tion levees about their places. It will probably be several weeks before the crevasse ceases to run. Th9 weather bureau expresses the belief that high water will continue in the lower Mississippi for three weeks or longer, though there will be but slight changes in the next few days. . SPECIAL EIVEE BULLETIN. Washington, April 9.-The lower Mississippi Bi ver continues to fall slowly, but in the New Orleans dis? trict the high water will probably con? tinue for the next three weeks and possibly longer. Changes during the next several days will be slight. The breaks in the levees above the mouth of Bed Biver have caused consider? able delay in the movement of the Mississippi water and it is now ap? parent that the flood waters in Bed Biver will pass down in advance of the Mississippi flood proper. The stages, therefore, below the mouth of Bed Biv?r will not bo as high as would have been recorded had no breaks occurred in the levees. This is as stated in previous bulletins. How? ever, there should be no relaxation in precautionary measures, as dangerous stages will continue south of V icks burg from one to three weeks longer. Bed Biver below Shreveport will con j tinue to fall slowly, but there will be a j slight rise in the Ouachita during the next few days. This will be the last special bulletin issued unless new developments of special interest arise, but some mention will be made every three or four days of the progress of the flood in the New Orleans district until its final decline. THE SWOLLEN TENNESSEE. Chattanooga, Tenn., April 9.-The Tennessee Biver at this point reached twenty-six feet today and is rising at the rate of six inches an hour. At all points above it continues rising, except at the extreme headwaters of the Holsten and French Broad rivers. The river will reach the danger line, 33 feet, at this station tomorrow morning and will probably reach 34 feet before it becomes stationary. The Alabama Tornado. Hanceville, Ala, April 9.-Two more deaths resulted today from the tornado which swept the country west of here Wednesday morning. They are Isa? belle McCoy, aged 6, andJEflBe McCoy. Two other members of the same family are also expected to die. Be ports of the damage of the storm across the river reached here today. The storm jumped to .Summit, Ala., which is in the northern centre of Blount County, where several persons were severely injured and a dozen houses and barns destroyed. F?BTHEE DESTBUCTION. Gadsden, Ate., April 9.-Further advices of Wednesday's tornado in Northern Alabama, state that a terri? fic cyclone passed over a path a quarter of a mile wide in Cherokee County, causing the death of one person, the injury of several and doing damage, estimated at $15,000. The storm first struck the house of Chas. Smith, a tenant on the Coosa Biver. Smith's back was broken, and his seven-year 1 old son was killed. The storm then swept back and forth across the Coosa Biver, and laid waste some of the finest hoiries and orchards in Cherokee County. A large number of persons had narrow escapes. Leesburg Ala., April 9.-A cyclone passed within five miles of this place yesterday morning. A child,of J. J. Smith, near Slackland, Ala.,*was kill? ed. The cyclone was nearly half a mile wide. The house of J. J. Smith was destroyed and Mr. Smith serious I ly injured. Many acres of valuable timber, and barns, fences and growing crops suffered complete demolition. Several persons were severely injured by the gale. "The Sister in Black." Boston, April 8.-The wife of Booker T. Washington was a guest of honor at a meeting of the State Federation of Women's Clubs, held in Dorchester today. Mrs. Julia Ward Howe, honorary president of the federation, also was present.

Walterboro, April 9.-Quite a sensa? tion was caused here this morning by the arrest, upon a warrant issued by Magistrate J. E. Bryan, of S. J. Fennell, a farmer and manufacturer of lumber, residing about six miles from the town, on the charge of forgery. Being unable to give bond for 8700 he was committed to jail. A mysterious woman in black, described as quite handsome, figures in the case. In fact she is the chief actor, but it is not known who she is. What is known is that she appeared at the Farmers' and Merchants' Bank here on March 27, presented a check for S532, bearing the signature of W. O. Thompson, Jr., drawn upon the Bank of Hamp? ton, in favor of one of his married sisters, whom she impersonated, and received the money. The circumstance connecting Fennell with the transac? tion is that he is known to have ac? companied the woman the preceding day from Walterboro to Hampton, I where she presented a check for a similar sum, but, owing to some error, payment was refused. He re? turned with her to Walterboro the same day. Where she lodged for the night cannot be ascertained. Fennell ad? mits seeing her on the train, but de? nies knowledge of her identity. An? other mystifying feature of the case is that the woman must have known the extent of Thompson's deposits in the Bank of Hampton and have been familiar with his signature. Thomp? son, who is now on a visit to Florida, might aid in' clearing up the mystery of the mysterious woman in black. Diligent efforts are being made to find out who she is and where she is. -News and Courier. Mexican Currency Reform. It is to be presumed that the invest? ments of American capital in Mexican railway, mining, industrial and other enterprises are rather above than un? der the sum of $700,000,000. The lat? ter is, however, the conservative figure named by Mr. Charles A. Conant, of New York, who, in conjunction with Mr. Brush and Professor Jenks, was invited by the Mexican government to go to the City of Mexico, and confer with the administration . of that re? public in regard to the possibility of cooperation . between the United States and Mexico and other silver using countries in settling upon plans for imparting greater stability to silver currencies. The interest which investors and capitalists in the United States now possess in Mexico is cer? tainly very large, and although it is growing every year the extension of American enterprise in that field would doubtless be larger were it not for the disadvantages arising from the Mexican silver currency. In the interview which Mr. Conant gave out after his return from Mexico, he pointed to the fact that the American capital invested in Mexican railroads is one of the principal sufferers from present conditions, as their earnings are paid in silver, while the interest upon their bonds and a large part of the wages of their employees are on a gold basis. Some people may think that Mr. Conant and the other members of the committee with which he was connect? ed are unduly optimistic as to the pos? sible results of the action taken by the United States Congress at its re? cent session, in appropriating funds for a commission to confer with the Mexican, Chinese and ether govern? ments in regard to giving stability^and uniformity to the currency of silver using countries. At the same time, the intimations contained in the inter? view to which attention is directed are of an important and interesting kind. It would seem that the inten? tions entertained by President Diaz and the Mexican Finance Minister, Senor Limantour, are to arrange for a fixed standard for Mexico, which, while it will provide for a large use of silver coin, will also present fea? tures which, through a government control of the quantity of the circula? tion, will maintain a parity between the silver coinage and gold, while con? joined with this a large gold exchange fund will be maintained at the princi? pal business centers of the republic. It is also stated that the entire busi? ness community throughout Mexico is now firmly imbued with the idea that a reform of this charater is absolutely necessary. Moreover, while the Ameri? can delegates do not mention the fact, it would seem that there is no politi? cal party in Mexico to champion the cause of silver nor interpose objections to whatever plans are finally decided upon by the President and the Con? gress of the republic. The question is, of course, one which is surrounded by many difficulties, and a satisfac? tory settlement will necessarily be slow. It is easy to realize that the establishment of sufficient gold re? serves for the necessary purpose of imparting stability to external ex? changes will be one of the principal questions to be solved by the Mexican administration and its foreign friends and well-wishers. It is certain that among American investors and busi? ness men there is every desire that Mexico's currency system shall be re? adjusted in a manner helpful to the prosperity of that country and cal? culated to increase the volume of its trade with our own nation.--Brad streets. Last year Andrew Carnegie gave to the cause of education over $30,000,000 His known gifts to this cause so far foot up $37,212,923, but it is believed that the grand aggregate is some? where near $100,000,000.

The following notice was published in this week's issue of the. Greenwood Journal : We understand that the Rev. C. C. Brown, of Sumter, S. C., is sending out circulars to pastors and others in the state asking for their signatures to a petition requesting nine of the trustees of Furman University to re? sign. These circulars so far as we can hear are meeting with very little favor. Mr Brown was at one time a member of beard and his name was dropped for good and sufficient reasons. He has done all that he could in every con? ceivable way to control the board, but his failure has been signal and he will continue to fail. This last effort will meet with that merited rebuke which it deserves. Dr. Brown was so anxious for some one to take him np in a discussion a few months ago that failing to be noticed he called for anonymous letters. Failing to get ?ny one to write bim anonymously he wrote and addressed an anonymous letter to himself which he published. We have been reminded of the sate ment made in the long ago to the effect that the cackling of a flock of geese saved an ancient city. We be? lieve that the cackling of Dr. Brown will only unite the discordant ele? ments of our state upon Furman Uni? versity and save the institution. Give some people rope and they will do work so effectual as to result in the greatest good to the greateast number. A NEW LAW OF LIBEL. How the Politicians of Pennsyl? vania Propose to Protect Them? selves From the Press. Harrisburg, Pa., April 9.-The Sen? ate passed finally today the new libel law introduced on Tuesday by Senator Grady. The bill provides that news? papers published in Pennsylvania shall print in every issue, on the editorial page, the names of the owner or own? ers, publisher and managing editor, and if owned by a corporation the names of the officers thereof. In all civil actions which may hereafter be brought against a newspaper, if it shall be shown that the publication complained of resulted from negligence on the part of such owner, proprietor, manager or editor in the ascertainment of the facts or in the publication thereof, compensatory damages may be recovered for injuries to business and reputation resulting from such pub? lication, as well as damages for the physical and mental suffering endured by the injured party or parties. An amendment provides "whenever in any civil action it shall be shown that the matter complained of is libel? lous and that such libellous matcer has been given special prominence by the use of pictures, cartoons, headlines, displayed type or any other matter calculated to especially attract atten ! tion, the jury shall have the right to award punitive damages against the defendant or defendants." It is charged by the opponents of the bill that orders have been issued by the political leaders to "railroad" the measure. As proof of this they point to the fact that United States Senator Penrose^was in the Speakers' room of the Capitol today and sent for Senators and Members opposed to the bill, urging them to support it. A similar measure is being hurried through the House. New National Banks. The following statement in relation to organization of national banks since the passage of the act of March 14, 1900, has been issued from the office of the Comptroller of the Currency: "At the close of March, 1903, the law in relation to the organization of banks with minimum capital of $25,000 has been in operation three years and seventeen days. v During that period thero have been added to the national banking system 1,442 associations with aggregate capital stock of $86, - 135,500. The additions to the system by conversions of state banka and re? organizations of state or private banks were 179 and 443, respectively, the capital of the converted banks amount? ing to $12,226,000 and of the reorganized associations to $29,740,000. The banks organized during the period in ques? tion deposited as security for circulation bonds to the amount of only $20,475,500, or a fraction less than 24 per cent. of the capital. During the month of March fifty-six national banks were organized with capital stock of $2,170, 000 and bond deposit of $642,550. On March 31, 1903, the number of nation? al banks was 4,869 and their authorized capital stock $739,178,695. The amount of bonds on deposit as security for circulation has increased since March 14, 1900, from $244,611,570 to $342,160, 770, or $97,549,200, and national bank circulation shows a net increaase dur? ing this period of $128,116,528."

Delegates Appointed by Governor Hey? ward to Represent South Carolina. Columbia, April 7.-Governor Hey? ward today appointed delegates to the Inter-State Sugar Cane Growers' Convention, which is to he held at Macon, Ga., on the 6tfa, 7th and 8th of May. The expectation is that the Convention will be very generally at? tended by the representative farmers of the Atlantic States and that a great deal of good will be accomplished as a result of the free exchange of ideas as to the development of the sugar cane culture. The idea is, of course, not to have sugar cane growing restricted to a small patch for home use, but to have the farmers of the State go into the industry on an extensive scale, and it is stated that it can be shown wherein there is big money in the crop, with the proper arrangemments for the handling of the product. The following are the delegates ap? pointed to represent the farmers of Sumter county : R. P. Stackhouse, Oswego; E. E. Aycock, Wedgefield ; R. C. Blanding, Sumter: John I. Brogdon, Sumter; W. A.

C., April 8, 1903 To the City Council. / Your finance committee has examined the books of the Clerk and Treasurer for the months of January, February and March. Also annual report for the year which ended March 31st, ul? timo, all of which we find correct. We recommend that the annual report be published in The Daily Item. All bills referred to us have been approved except account of Sumter Water Co., for $251.21 for water extension to the Telephone Manufacturing Co. We think the company should pay this bill. We refer back to Council the communication from the Columbia Chamber of Commerce relative to the St. Louis exposition. We ask further time to consider the appointment of a building inspector, as we have not yet gotten in hand such information as will enable us intelligently to prepare an ordinance regulating this important matter. We note with satisfaction the, payment of a large part of our floating debt. With economiacl man? agement this year that debt can be entirely cancelled and our successors will come into office with a clean sheet. Respectfully submitted, E. W. Hurst, D. J. Chandler, Finance Committee. The report was adopted. The police committee recommended that council employ an Attorney to de? fend Assistant Chief of Police A. H. Weeks in a case brought against bim in the Court of General Sessions for "illegal arrest and brutal treatment of a prisoner." Council adopted the committee's recommendation. Mr. Schwerin stated that complaint is made of damage done to sidewalks by rain from overhanging eaves in several places and the Clerk was in? structed to write the owners of such buildings and request them to remedy the difficulty by gutters or some other satisfactory means that will take off the water without allowing it to fall on sidewalks. Mr. Schwerin reported that the owner of the store at corner of Main and Bartlette Street had consented to permit the widening of the Main street sidewalk by cutting off the pre? sent front and putting in a corrugated iron*front further back from the street. Referred to the Superintendent of Streets to ascertain the cost of widen? ing both Main and Bartlette street at that point. On request of Mr. Chandler the com? mittee of public works was asked to improve the sidewalk on Sumter street, south of Dugan street, on the west side. Mr. Chandler offered the follow? ing resolutions in reference to the St. Louis Exposition which was adopted: "Resolved that the City Council of Sumter are interested in securing a creditable display of the resources of South Carolina at the St. Louis ex? position, and are of opinion that a dis? play which would not do full justice to the" State would be worse than none. They think the legislature should have taken the lead in the matter by making a liberal appropriation. Resolved, Further, that should ?the cities and towns of the State undertake to make such a display at the said ex? position, the city of Sumter will co? operate with them to the extent of its ability. The bill of the Sumter Water Co., $251.21 for extension of Main to The Telephone Manufacturing Co, was re? ferred again to the finance committee. The Clerk was instructed to order one section of hose for the street sprinkler. Council then adjourned. A Suggestion.
