Peneacola, Fla.; April 11. A disas trous explosion occurred on the battle ship Iowa today while the vessel was at target practice in the Gulf.

The men killed and injured were on the second or gnn deck at nitss. Three pieceB of the exploded gun, each weigh ing over a ton, passed downward through the spar deck, falling upon the men at mess, instantly killing three of them. All of the men were horribly mutilated. The heavy -misBilea, after pafsing through the gun deck, contin ued 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 covered with men, ncne were ceriously injured. The explosion occurred just as the mess had been sounded. The firing was to have ceased alter the snot for ine ainner hour.

The opinion prevails among certain government offi cials acquainted with irrigation worke that the five projects recently authoris ed to be undertaken under the general irrigation law will cost considerably itore to construct than bas been esti mated. Secretary Hitchcock announced that the five works conld be built for approximately $7,000,000, but these persons, who are familiar particularly with the Milk river project in Montana and the Truckee canyon project ii Nevada, say that those two scheme alone will consume the greater pcrtion work comprn-ea townships.
