When She Arrives Here a Cou'i't of Inquiry
Will Probably Place the Responsi-
bility For the Mishap, Which
Is Her Second One.
WASHINGTON, July 15.—The ofl‘icials ol
the navy department are considerably ex-
ercised over the following account of the
injuryto the United States cruiser Co-
lumbia, which was cabled from London
yesterday:
“Much chagrin was caused at South-
ampton by the report that the United
States cruiser Columbia. was seriously
strained when she was placed in dry dock
there for the purpose Of cleaning and
painting her. She was docked last Mon-
day in the London and Southwestern com-
pany’s dock previous to her speed trial
across the Atlantic. Captain George W.
Sumner, her commander, had previously
furnished the company with docking plans
for the vessel. ‘
The Columbia Strained.
“When the water was pumped out. of the
dock, it was discovered that no bilge blocks
had been fitted, and the keel itself, from
the ram until near the stokehole bulkhead,
a. distance of about 100 feet, was entirely
unsupported. The whole weight of the
ship was thrown upon the rest of the keel.
Captain Sumner instantly required the
contractors to block up under the bilges
and forward part of the Columbia’s keel,
and an inspection showed that there had
been a. slight indentation of the keel under
the boiler compartment, with a. buckling
of the frames and a cracking of the oc-
ment. No other injury was discovered, so
the work of scrubbing and cleaning the
ship’s bottom was proceeded with.
‘ ‘ Captain Sumner, however, was not satr
isfied, and made a rigid inspection of the
cruiser on the following afternoon. It was
then discovered that the buckling of the
outer bottom and strips and frames under
the boiler Compartments was increasing.
The stanchions between the double bot<
tom and the protected deck had begun to
bend, and the Columbia’s commander do
cided to have her floated immediately. The
stanchions were partly straightened after
the cruiser was once more borne up by the
Water, and the many boilers and steam
pipes have since been tested, with the re-
suit that no further injuries have yet been
found.”
A Court of Inquiry.
An examination of the plans of the Co-
lumbia shows that if she was placed in a
flatbottomed dock without blocking under
her, as reported, at least 128 feet of her
hull would be unsupported forward. This
is caused by the sharp rising given to the
keel forward. There is also considerable
rise aft of the boilers, and it is regarded as
extremely lucky that no mishap occurred
at that point, for the effect would have
been much more serious, throwing out of
line the shafting, twisting the steam con-
nections and perhaps disabling the ship
from proceeding on her home voyage.
On the forward part of the ship which
was unsupported was much heavy weight.
There was the whole of the electric ligh‘.
ing plant, the conning tower and pilot
house, the ship’s stores, chain bunkers,
anchors and two 6 inch rifled guns.
It is probable that as soon as the Co-
lumbia returns to the United States a
court of inquiry will be appointed to as-
certain who is responsible for the mishap,
which is charged by cable to the dock p904
ple, but which, it is said here, must be
placed on the officer who is, under the reg-
ulations, supposed to make sure that the
blocks are properly placed before the wa-
ter is admitted to the dock and the ship
floated in.
This is the second time the Columbia
has sustained an injury to her bottom, for
about a year ago she struck some obstruc-
tion in the Delaware river, which led to a
court of inquiry.
RUSSIA PUSHING JAPAN.
Controversy Over the Evacuation of China
by the Mikado’s Troops. '
LONDON, July 15.—A correspondent in
St. Petersburg tolegraphs that Prince
Lobanoff Rostovski, the Russian minister
of foreign affairs, on the 11th inst. request-
ed Mr. Nishi Tokujiro, the Japanese mine

period the Japanese would evacute the
Liaotung peninsular.
The minister replied that Japan would
retain the territory in question until full
payment of the war indemnity and com-
pensation for the renouncing of Liaotung
had been made by the Chinese government.
Prince Lobanofi‘ refused to accept this
answer and at once instructed the Russian
embassador at Tokyo to ask the govern-
ment to name a date for the withdrawal
of all the troops from the Chinese main
land.
