Disaster on the Kearsarge no further steps to fix responsibility
Washington May. No further steps will be taken to fix responsibility for the fire on the battleship Kearsarge on April 18 which caused ten deaths. Judge Advocate General Diehl says the court of inquiry finding that no one is responsible seems justified by the evidence and Acting Secretary Newberry approves. The opinion notes the department may act on equipment and construction issues and bureau references. The court held the accident was caused by a short circuit and improper installation of rheostats, but the gunners mate should not be held responsible.
