rillLADKI.FIIlA, Aug. itl.-It is
now reasonably certain that at least US
persons perished as a result of the ex
plosion of one of tlte boilers of the steam

above this city on Wednesday afternoon.
This conclusion is reached by the police
authorities through the fact that 17 per
sons who are reported by their relatives
or friends to have been on the steamer
huve not yet been found. These missing
persons, with 11 bodies already recov
ered, make a total of 2S. Ten persons
are still in a serious condition as a re

critical condition ami may die.

Capt. Lemly, Judge Advocate of
Schley Court of Inquiry.
Ins llnd More to tin with the Prose
cution of Nnvnl l.n w Cnsr Than
Any Other Ollicer In (he

Cnpt. Lemly Is particularly well
fitted for t lie? exneting; duties of
judfje ndvocnte. lie Is now svrvlnjf
, bis third term ns Judge ndvocnte
i getieral. Be is u civil ns well ns u
nutrititiip lawyer. So far n9 known
he lias never expressed un opinion ns
to the merits of eft her liear Admiral
Sampson or Bear Admiral Schley. He
served with Schley iu the Essex on
the South Atlantic station, nnd was
n. watch officer on board the Thetis,
commanded by ('apt. Schley, which,
with the Benr, formed the tirecly
relief expedit ion.
dipt. Lemly says he would feel
hurt to have it intimated that he has
any personal feeling1 whatever in the
controversy. In all the time he has
been at the hcud of the legal depart
ment of the nuvy, his service datlntf
back to l.HO'i.hoha.s, fortunately, never
had. occasion to puss upon nny fiies
tion that involved cither Sampson or
Schley in any personal aspect. He
has known both Schley better than
Sampson, perhaps. He was one of
Schley's personal friends when he
(Lemly) was in active line service.
Indeed, he accompanied Schley on
the famous Greely relief expedition,
and lie rendered vtiltuible service to
Schley on that occasion, which the
senior ollicer recognized. On the
other hand, dipt. Lemly has known
Snmpson officially in the ntivy de
partment when the admiral was at
the head of tho ordnance bureau,
and they were thus thrown into close
contact in a business point of view
at least for several years.
Capt. Lemly had already arranged
to depart from Washington on his
annual leave on a trip through Cana
da some tim in August. He will nr

celebrated case before the court
meets September 12.
Meanwhile the clerical force of the
judge advocate's department can
prepare the mass of documentary
evidence necessary for use before the
points muy be gathered ready for the
opening. It should be noted that un
der the ordinary rules of practice the
judge advocate general of the navy is
called upon to review the proceed
ings of court-martials and courts of
inquiry. Secretary Long has prom
ised Cnpt. Lemly that he will be ex
empted from the duty of reviewing
the proceedings of the Schley court.
Cnpt. Lemly has probably had more
experience in the prosecution of
niivnl law cases than any other of
ficer in the nnvy, and in generally re
garded as one of the best, equipped
officers iu the navy for the important
duties which will devolve upon him
as judge advocate of the court se
lected to pass upon controversial
points resulting from tho conduct of
the naval campaign in the West. In
dies. Prior to his assumption of his du
ties ns judge advocate general of the
navy, in June, 18.02, he was prom
inently identified with several of the
most important trials nnd investiga
tions iu the recent annals the
navy. As judge advocate and record
er of various courts he traversed
nearly all points of the world visited
by I'nited States warships, going as
far as China and Japan in the prose
cution of such work.
lie was judge udvocnte of the court
martial convened in Cliinii as a re
sult of the loss of the I'nited States
steamship Ashuelot, and was ulso
judge advocate in the court-martial
ense of Paymaster Wntkins, which
sat at Yokohama. Ho was also judge
ndvocnte in the court-mnrtiiil cases
appointed for t lie trial of ex-Surgeon
General Wales and ex-Paymaster
General Smith. Probably his most
Important work of this kind, how
ever, was as judge advocate of the
court of inquiry which investigated
the loss of the Jeannette in the Arc
tic. That investigation was con
ducted in Washington and wui
niaVked by almost as much aorlmony
nnd controversy as tho pending
Sampson-Schley case.
Naval officers in speaking of the
fairness of Secretary Long in select
ing tho court of inquiry point to the
fact that Admiral Kimberly was

herself growing stronger instead of

of nausea and nervousness, there are
healthy appetite, quiet nerves, and

dread of the approaching time of

comes it is practically painless, the
