NINE COMPARTMENTS
DAMAGED BY FLAMES
ON GREAT WARSHIP
Preliminary Investigation
of Fire on Oklahoma
Shows Damage tp Be
Much Greater Than Wds
First Supposed.
Nine compartments of ;the dreadnought
Oklahoma were so badly damaged' by tho
mysterious fire under tufrot No. 1 tfiat
they will have to be rebuilt accordlhg to
a preliminary examination 61 tho hull
made today nt the1 New Ynrk fihlnhtilld-
Ing Company's plant, Camden, where the J
Oklahoma Is Under construction.
The cost of tho blaze will run high.
Into the thousands, offlclala found.. It
will not' be possible to give the exact
amount for two or three weeks. A. num
ber of -plates wpre buckled by the In
tense heat and It' Is probable that
others were strained by the tons of
water dumped Into the big steel ittilk in
an effort to extinguish. the flames.
Powerful pumps are still at -work today
getting the water opt' of the compart
ments where the Are raged. Until they
H are,,elearednp, accurate examination Is
possible This, morning the water was
low.enougli for, officials of the yard and
Naval '"Department ripresentatlves, to get
near the sourco of the blaze, however.
It was at first thought that the fire'
was confined to tho single compartment
beneath the forward' turret, ' In which
place fires have-been discovered recently
on three, other battleships. Examination
showed that nine compartments had been
affected by the flames,
Tho burned section of the giant Battle
ship presented a, grim appearance today.
Tho steel bulkheads are badly twisted by
the heat, and as far as the preliminary
examination can show the wiring, plumb
ing, ventilation apparatus and many gears
have been damaged. Several big electric
motojs will nl?a'have to, be replaced.
One official who was among the first
to-Inspect the ship, said:
"There Is nothing to warrant us In
making any unnatural supposition as to
the cause of the fire. . It is no doubt by
far more serious thanthe recent fires on
the Alabama and New Jersey. In fact.
It la tho most' serious fire we have ever
had, But then 'there have been fires on
practically all tho battleships I have ever
seen while In the bourse of construc
tion." Navy officers hope the Investigation
will bring to light who was responsible,
for the Btubbom "blaze which baffled
thn Camden fire department and flreboats
and added the "name; of the Oklahoma to
the list OI me AiaDama,1.ew jersey onu
San Francisco, on which equally puzzling
and similar fires hava occurred within the
last few weeks. "' '
It was stated in Washington that the
fire on the, Oklahoma 'strengthened tho
suspicion that the United States Is being
subjected to the hostile activities of par
tisans of the war In Europe. Secretary
