This report, which has not been confirmed, gave the list of injured as 75, most of whom dropped at their work of firefigliting, from inhaling the gas and smoke.

A hospital ship has been dispatched to the North Dakota. It Is understood that the Tanktoi?, the Solace and the Kansas are accompanying the North Dakota to Old Point Comfort. This report says the damaged battleship is using her own eteam. BETTER RUN?" y - ' t King and Lord Mayor Will Sit in ' Private BoxesOrville Harrold to Bo Tenor. '. NEW YORK. Sept. 8. (Special.)
