Astoria, Oct. 21. The bursting of ono or moro steam tubes In the for ward boiler of the torpedo-boat Davis while on her official trl.il trip yester day fatally scalded seven fireman. The accident occurcd while tho boat was westward bound, off Tcnas Illlhee, near Cathtamct. She had run ono of the required two hours ut full speed, and was making abont 23 J knots per hour, under a steam pres sure of 250 pounds. Until a careful examination of tho boilers Is made the prctlso nature or tho accident cannot be learned, but enough Is known to show tliut It was ono of those mishaps which no man can foresee, and for which no ono can ba justly blamed. Seven dromon, under tho direction of William Wood, foreman of tho boiler shop of tho Wfflir & Zwlckcr Iron work, wcro working manfully to keep up tho tremendous steam pres sure necessary to supply the Hying engines, Without a momont's warn lng, something Inside tho holler gave way, and it withering blast of live steam.

Wolff, vice president of the contracting firm, sprang down tho ladder and Into tho seething pit, regatdless of tho fearful heat that utmost oyorcamc them. Together they lifted Foreman Wood to the hatch, where a dozen pairs of frauds were waiting to recolvc him. And then, ono by one, six moro hor ribly mutilated men wore takon from tho death trap. Several of tho most severely inlurcd walked .unaided to the urter cabin, where Dr. E. II. Thornton, thocompuny's physi cian, who accompanied tho bo-it, at tended to them us rapidly as ho was able to do so. Few were able to re press the groans that spoke or their terrible suffering, but nil bore them selves with tho fortitude that men In the time of war call heroism.

The contractors iiOjVp been careful and painstaking In the construction of tho boilers, this being a branoh of tholr work In which ritfey have always mob with marked succcm, They have conscientiously followed all tho rigid rcqulrorucats laid down by the government, sufficient proof of which Is tho fact that the boilers have bcon constantly undor, the Inspection of officers or the navy de tailed for that express purpose. llctoro they were placed In the torpedo-boats the boilers wore subjected to a water pressure of 300 pounds to tho Rquarq fuel), 110 pounds moro than that at which they wore working at thti tlmo of tho accident. The crew volunteered for tho eorylcc. They have always been used with fuirncss and consider ation by their employers, and not ono of tho men on board but disclaimed tho belief that their employers wero in any way responsible for Jtho unfor tunate occurrence. How It happened will 'dovclop on Investigation of thp boilers "today. Why It happened no one Is likely ever to learn. Tho doctors who cared for thp scalded victims say there was never, any chuueo, from tho first, for them to have lived. Tholr iutfcrlngs were cased by opiates, and beyond that lit tlo could be done.
