Capt-R- .tr. Ross, the contractor for the work, is our well-known Wilmington' friend and Capt. A..C. Moore and his unfortunate son- were both from this city. The latter was - a clerk not long ago for Mr. George A. Peck at his hardware store on South Front street. Following are the particulars sent out in a Press dis patch: . Jacksonville, Sept. 5. A terri ble explosion occurred at the mouth of the St. John's river, by which two men were killed and several more injured. Capt. R. G. Ross, in charge of the government jetty work at St. John's bar, has been engaged for several days in blow ing up the submerged .wreck of the old Dutch brig Nerva," which has for years obstructed the channel otf Mayport. He had in command Capt. A. C. Moore, with a crew! of twelve men. Two of the men, j R. T. Moore, son of tlie captain, and Grandison Powell, colored," were soldering a 35 pound can of dyna mffce, when it exploded with a ter rific report and blew both men to atoms, only one toe of Moore being found after the explosion. Engineer Dunn of the lighter, was badly wounded in the side and arm. Capt. Moore was blackened by the ex plosion and badly shaken up, but is not seriously injured. He is, how ever, in a state of mind almost .bordering upon insanity by reason of the terrible fate of his son. ' The explosion was heard for miles around and.caused an upheaval of water and tremor of the earth which created considerable alarm. Steam tug Robert Turner went hurriedly to the scene of disaster and then blew whistles of distress, which brought the government steamer and others to the -rescue, ajid carried Dunn to Mayport, where he could receive medical treatment. The lighter was boarded immediate Jy after the explosion to ascertain what other damage was done, and everything was found one mass of wreck and ruins. Themaohinery of. the jetty lighter and engine was completely demolished. . A big hole was found on the deck of the lighter, and the crew badly 'demoralized. Search was at once instituted for the remains of the men, but without further snccess. Moore's vest and pants were subsequently, found among the floating wreckage torn completely in shreds. The accident attracted a . great crowd of people to the shore and the greatest excitement prevailed. Captain ; Ross, the contrastor, had gone to St. Augustine to spend! a day, where Capt. vV. M. Black, JU. j o. Engineer in charge or tne jetties, has his headquarters. He was at once communicated with and will do everything possible under the circumstances for the relief of the wounded. He is expected in May port to night. Moore, the white 'man killed, was twentv two years old and "unmar ried. This is tlie first serious acci dent to occur at these jetties since the work began several years, ago IN FULL SUPPLY.
