of naval officers believe that the character of the explosion was hardly such as could be attributed to a torpedo The latter charged with about 100 pounds of powder or gun cotton it is believed would have torn a large hole in the bottom or side of the Maine but was scarcely likely to fire the magazine which is not near the bottom It is said at the navy department that there is no lack of precedent for such disasters as that sustained by the Maine all of which can be traced to accidental causes In 1SS5 the United states Missouri then lying at Gibraltar was totally wrecked by the explosion of her magazine Another case famous in naval history is that of her majestys ship Doterel In 1887 she was lying at anchor off Puenta Arenas in the Straits of Magelan An explosion wiped the ship from the face of the waters and left almost none of her crew alive This was another case of magazine explosion though it may have originated in the coal bunkers or ¬ man-of-w- ar ¬ quarters that a torpedo was used

of trips made it answers as time card and also as a trouble report Any motorman taking out a car makes out one of these cards which he hands to his relief and the man pulling the car into the barn

defect about the car which he may fail to notice The trip cards are checked with the starters report so that no cards can be left out Beyond this the time of leaving the barn and pulling in must agree so that there is no chance of anyone getting paid for more time than he had actually put in From these trip cards the mileage is figured by routes the mileage for each car being put down separately on
