Tremendous Explosion on Roard the Steamer Jalta, at Vallejo, California. Vallejo, Tebuary 27th. At G o'clock this morning tho steamer Julia left Georgia-street wharf at South Vallejo. Nearly seventy passengers were on board when she left the latter place, many of whom were laborers employed in tho lumber yards in the vicinity of Vallejo Junction. The deck hands were just hauling in tho 1 lines prepatory to leaving the wharf at South Vallejo, when a terrible detona tion was heard aiid an immense volume of flame burst through tho center of tho vessel and shot high into the air. Tho greater part of those on board at tho time were thrown violently into tho wa ter by the force of the shock, several be ing 'killed outright by being struck with the fragments of the ves sel and her machinery, which flew about in every direction. The loud re port caused by the explosion attracted tho attention of numbers of persons liv ing in tho vicinity, and a great many men came in boats and on foot to succor the unfortunate passengers. The steam er caught fire immediately after tho ex plosion, the flames spreading to tho wharf, consuming the telegraph office and tho depot. CAI-TAK OEDOC'S ACCOUNT. The master of the Eteamer, Captain Gedgo, says that he was on tho wharf as usual collecting tickets from tho oncom ing passengers when the signal for de parture was given. Ho locked the gate from wharf to gang-plank, and then walked elowly down aboard the steamer. He heard the bell from the pilot house sound for the engines to bo started, and then heard tho first whistle usually blown just before heading out into tho stream. He was just about to ascend the stairs to reach the upper deck and go thence to the pilot house, when the explosion oc curred. Ho says he felt a shock, and then everything darkened. lie reached out his hand and turned up his coat-collar, and that is all ho recollects. lie was found there aftenVards, postrate, covered with debris, but only slightly in1 jured, beyond ho severe ahock. t1 When those not killed by tho explosion had recovered from the shock caused by it, a scono was presented which was la mentable beyond all expression. Num bers of persons having friends or relatives aboard tho ill-fated steamer rushed to the burning wharf, and heedless of the flames which lapped about thclri, called ill the most piteod3 manner tho names of loved ones, bursting into sobs and wails of the deepest grief when thoy found their cries unanswered. The men on the wharf did all they could, which was but little, most of the passengers having been below docks at the limo of the acci dent and henco imprisoned when it fell. It had been customary for tho passen gers to go below decks in tho morning, a. it was cold and foggy, and this accounts for the fearful los3 of life. The few who were on deck and were not rendered in insensible by force of the ohock, were quickly assisted ashore by tho men on the wharf. Tho horror of tho pceno was deepened when the immense vats of pe troleum stored on the wharf for replen ishing the steamer tanks caught fire, the flames spreading rapidly towards the Starr Flouring Mills situated at the end of tho wharf. An alarm was sent to North Vallejo, and in a short time the fire company were on hand, but they were unable to accomplish anything, as there was no wafer. Fifteen minutes after the explosion, about six hundred, feet of the wharf, a freight depot, and the telegraph of&e were burning. The fire men tried to get water from tho edge of the wharf, but the tide was too far out and they could do nothing to. savo the property. When tho tide came in they managed to get a supply of water and at noon had the fire nnder control. Had any wind been blowing at tho timo the Starr Flouring mills building would havo been destroyed beyond doubt. SAVEJO THE SUTEnEK3. While tho firemen and others were try ing to save the wharf, a largo number of boatmen were rowing around tho wreck seeking to recover the bodies. A number of hands from tho navy yard and from tho steamer Iroquois nssisted in every way possible to secure the remains of the passengers. While the Eearch was going on women and children wero standing back from the burning wharf, and their cries of an guish were something terrible to tear. As each body was brought to the surface and placed in a shed on that portion of the wharf not destroyed, tho crowd would gather abound, and an exclama tion of grief from somo one in tho gath ering too plainly told tho tale that some relative of the dead had recognized the mangled remains. The first train from San Francisco brought up a number of anxious peopfe who feared that they had friends on board the steamer. None of tho persons on board tho steamer at the time of the explosion contd give any clear account of Tvhat had happened. Ail they know was that just as tho last lino was being thrown .off there was a loud report and the poriioB, of the deck over where tho fuel was stored was" blown to splinters. Tho burn- I ing debris was hurled in all directions, and in a few seconds the wharf was a I mass of flames. The greater part of those who were not seriously injured by the .explosion were so badly jarred that they do not remember what happened after the first shock. How thu managed to os capo from the burning vessel is a mys tery to them, but it is presumed that they were rescued by tho boatmen, who were quick in arriving at tho scene of the disaster. A DISTAXT VIEW. Thoso who viewed the burning vessel from a distance say that it wai a grand but awful sight. A light gray fog was hanging over tho water at the timo, and occasionally it would brighten into a fiery red as the flames from thd burning vats shot into the air. Then it would die out again, and dull, reddish streaks, such as foretold tho coming of tho day, would spiad across tho water. Those streaks intensified in color until tho whole sheet of water for a quarter of a milo out from the wharf looked like a sea of fire. Then the air wonld become filled with flying sparks and cinders, which wero to3sed hither anil thither by the draught gener ated by tho fire. When, an hour later, the steamer had gradually sunk into the mud flats until nothing ,but her upper deck and flagstaff were visible, the water had become black ns ink. Tho mud had been stirred up from the bottom, and the burned wood, both from the steamer and wharf, added to tho murkicoss of tho scene. All tby long nearly a thousand people stood about the scene of tho disas ter encouraging thosq who were trying to save tho wounded and helpless or recov er the bodies of the dead. Over thirty persons are supposed to have met a sudden and terrible death. CO.Ui:.bKO TUIJJUKAMS, Smallpox ning in Havana. The Crown Prince improving. Real ostato looking up in 'Frisco.
