HONOKONO, MANCH 4TH, 1907.
NEARLY two years ago the world was-as- tonished by the explosion and sinking of the Japanese buttleship Mikant. The great war had been finished, and peace declared; and the ship, which as Admiral Tooo's ag- ship, had borne all the burden of the fight, had returned for refituent to Sasebo. The Admiral had gone up to Tokyo to pay his respects to his EMPEROR, and the greater part of the crew bad either been discharged or were on shore on leave, when, without moment's warning, the big ship, the finest and newest of the entire Japanese navy which had only arrived from England to take her part in the outbreak of the war, burst into Dawes; and the flames mys teriously communicating with the magazine, the entire ship blew up, and instaceously disappeared beneath the water. Must of those on board, consisting of a portion of hor crew, and of some who had bera bastily summoned from the other ships in harbour to atsist in extinguishing the flames, were either blown to pieces in the explosion, er
Experts hesitated to give a final opinioni peuling the raising and thorough examina tion of the interior of the ship, but the damage proved so much more intense than was at first estimated that it was only the other day that the big ship was refloated. A complete examination, though of course a judgment cannot under the circumstances be considered infallible, goes to show that the theory of spontaneous combustion is most consonant with the conditions; and it may be now considered that the heavy weight of suspicion that for a time hung où the honour of the Japanese navy may be looked upon a8
once for all dissipated. This is doubtless satisfactory to Japan as a nation, and more especially to Admiral Toco as a commander; and we may con. gratuinte Lim on the removal of this last slur on his reputation. But the incident scorns possibly to throx light on another historic explosion, the effects of which bure since seriously affected the balance of power throughout the world. Under not altogether diasimilar conditions the American warship
