BELL PHONE 4438 ATLANTA 84S Boston, July 18.—"Probably one little act, or rather one great act, of one of the men prevented a tar greater disas ter," said Captain Henry McRae, of the battleship Georgia, speaking of the explosion on the vessel which cost the lives of nine men and Inflicted Inju ries, In come cases probably fatal, to thirteen others. "I don’t know the name of the man." continued Captnln McRae. "He Is dead. He and one other stood by the eecond gun that had Just been loaded. The last powder bag that had been put In was protruding a little from the gun. When he saw the flash, Instead of ] dashing for the ladder to save himself, he crowded home the charge In the j gun. and, with the help of the other ; men, got the gun closed before the flame reached the bag. "If the flame had touched that bag , there would have been an awful ex- . plosion, for the powder was confined In ' the gun and would not have flashed as I the other did, but would have exploded. ; Not a man In tho turret would have 1 been left alive, whatever else might have been done. That man gave his llfq for the others."
