TfOOK OTin_R MUN DADLY BCRNT.D BY AN EX / PLOSION AT FORT WADSWORTH. The garrison at Fort Wadsworth was stnrtlrd yesterday S'fternoon about 2 o'clock b.v h ***** ex plo-ion; arvd h>-.d an experience ol hnt shot and iburating shell tiiat waa a* uncxpected as it proved latt.l. Fiv* men were "aizing" cartridf-cs for use in thr* Navy in what is called the Lower Fort. ***** Biich operations have been carried on for sevcral .months, and in the absence. of Joseph SiiiiH', a .flunncr who has c.harse of this work, a llotchkiss '_n*chine-gun _br.ll explodcl, killins? Nathaiuel -Thaptnan. of Grsen Lane, Brooklyn. and senously fcuming Georpe Helrnos and John Davis, of Brook? lyn, J. J. Keegan, of Ko_e Mount, S. I.. and ymierick Cook. of Clifton. S. I. Tliey were all laborers employed to do this work, and not en t-Bted men. There were two almost sinmltaneous explosions ?one the burstinj*; of tl.e shell. and the otlier the explosion of about thirty pounds of juiipowder that remained lr. a harrel from which the men had been laJrfa-f it to illl the cartridi.es. These llotch? kiss tfiells have a calibre of 1.70 inches and a powjiar chari-e of thirty-flve ouuee.. The shell ln eafloded by conciission, atid has at its base a enp ?rr fuse that ignites the charpe in the shell itaelf. To this ahell is .-ttoehed the case. which is lilled With tliirty-iive ounoes of small, gNB ulated, octagonal powder, and has at its end a percussion cap, which should be sunk it. little be _ow the -urfao.. The shell. with its case, is laid in a trough and "sized"?that is. made of euch a hize as jtist to fit the breech of the gun. ,f_*his sizing is done by striking gently a copper olamp tiiat is _ttach_d t.? tl.e shell, gradually _?*< uigthc case Into the sizim? tube.' }J*t_t.ne could be learned as to how the. accident wally happencd. tiunncr Joseph Smith, who was 1n charge ot the loadinc, had just pone away. as the work was all bnt over. There is little doubt, .however, that Chapman. in forcing the cartridj-e Into the " sizer." struck the cap, which causcd the flrst. explosion. The four men were seated around a table. To the left of ("hapruan .vas the barrel or powder, which also exploded and wa* thc eause of the Biurning of the wounded men. As each cartridge /was loaded it was packol away in a casenient ftd jacent _o the one octiij.ic.l l.y the men; otherwise the accident might have U*cn much more serions. Tlie table at which the men were workinp was bodly scorched and three-foiirths of it was blown *4nto splinters. Among the fragments was found an unexploded fnse. similar to that placeil at the ?_d of the shell, and this was Bhoagfct bf some officere t*. Ix* ;i part of the explod.nl shell. while Cers were of the opinion that it could not have n ao. The cascmotit itself. as the apartn.ent in the fort in which a pun is worked is called. was in no way injured by the explosion, except for some r<mall c-hips knocked off the {.ranite, walls by frag ment<? of the shell. A court of inquiry, over which Major Walker will preside, hns been or dered to look into the eause of the accident. The Naval authorities have h<-en allowed to lill their .hells in the fort BBBMC July. Chapman, the man who was killed, was about forty years old. nnd had not, it is said. been long ot this kind of work. Accordin^ to tl.e state? ment. of Geocgc Heiroea, Chaaaaaa wns holding the shell ;.t tl.e time tl.e accident took plaee and was fa.-inc tl.c l.ullet. while Davis was tap pinp it on the end with a mallet, in order t*. drivc it into tl??

A small copper l>ar is also used in this opcration. the bar being placed against the end of the shel! and struck with the mallet. lt i.s difficult to con.-eive how the mallet itself could have come in ontnet with the percussion cap. which is cui-t. rsunk in tlie metal of Ti.e shell, wl.ilc it seeiiis hardly possihle that the men t'ould have beea etanld eaoagb ** **9 t!l*' **9 9*i8*t ihe ,<i|.| er har.

Boston, Nov. 7.?Lieutenant Troup, who W88 with Stanley in liis last Afriean expedition, ifl in Cambridge vtsiting relatives of liis wifr. Ha is preparin_c to return to England, an.l to-day said that he was compelled to decline an invitatioa to leo.ture lx-forc tho Boston Press Club. He in terrupted hU paoking long enongh to read whs8 Mr. Stanley said to New-York reporters. ycstei-ay and tl.en very emphatically gave BB* li-* direct to some ol Stanley's statements relative to Barttelot and Troup. He did not pose as a de fen.ler of all that Harttelot. did, but merely wishe.l to do juatice to that oftlcer'a meniory. and at thfl same time to relieve liimnelf of thc imputa tion of insubordination. He remarkerl: " If Stanley were to stick to one Btory, it would lie easier 88 reply to him; hut he jumpg about so often and contradictM himself so fre fl.iently that it is impossible to keep very near him. In one iuterview Stanloy's charges of dia loyalty against Barttelot are based upon letterfl from me, and now, after the lettera have been p.iblislied, Stanley iirnores ******* and takes B?nne-'? dladflfl for proof; but in his liook Stanley places no teliance on tl.e diaries of subordinates. laic rear guard was not in a condition to follow after Stan? ley. It would have been a physieal imi-ossibility. Common _cn*_> would have shown this to any maa tamiliar with the facts. It is plain cnough to moflfl minds Ifeal BB* sick, enfoebled and disabled men eould not travel with l.eavy loads through roiigta, dense forosts as rapidly as if unineumbered. Stan? ley spcaks in bis book of the sufferings of the ad vaBBB guard from hostile savagos, poUoned ar rowa and hunger. What would hav.. happenerl to the rear tiuard, hampercd by its loada, if it had sonc forwartl? Major Harttelot rlid right to re main. I did protest ****** and again againat cer tain ae^s of Barttelot, but he was not devold of many exeellent points." Lieutenant Troup then said: "When Mr. Stan? ley charges me with cowardice and inditferenea to the fate of the nalives with our guard, he knowa that he Ls not telling the trttth. Let him ask any ot the n.en with whom I had dealings and see what the reply will be. It is h matter of pride with me thnt I have always troated my inen _us kindly as lf they were Europeans. I have ptinished them, 18 is true, but I rlid not do it until actually foroed to do no in order to in.iiiii.aiii discipiine. Tl.en I explained the reasons fully to the other natives, so that there should be no ni_sunderstand_ug, and there was none. So, when Mr. St_uiley lays upon my shoulders--tlie responsibility for tha t-'rrible loss of life by htarvation and othorwiae, he is saying that which he ought to know is falao. "Stanley deseiil.es thc provisions whicli we l.ad. Let me do the same. Before going up the like to Camp Vambuya, I diaposed of the following supplies untler Mr. Stanley's explicit orders: Ninety sacks of rice, twenty three eatses of biscuit, weighing 1,3.0 pounds; and t wt-nty-cight hundles of braas rods, weigbing 5,4<)0 pounds, used iu bartering for tish. I lef? laehind about 190 sackB of rioe, whioh mighS have been sold. "Stanley himself was rw-ponsible for st UrnBt. a oart of tne m:sery grouing out oi' the st-arva lion and privation. When Stanley laft us he lef? only enough brass rods to give one per weelg to each nalive, with wliich to purshase fiah for iivc months. When this bitpply was ex hansted we were in torrible atraits. La view of Stanley _ stern and relentless discipiine no one rlare.l to disoboy his orders. Stanley di' noi return in ten months, and the pcople whom ha left with barely food enough for five mon-is slarved. Provisions were exhausted, and they bad no barter with which to procure more. The only food procurable ***** the manioc, and many were poi__ono.l, not knowing how toaprepare it. lt was Stanley's place to provide against just such au cn.ergePi.'v. I will iuve you our bill of fare at Yambu.va, wliich we endured for one year. When I arrived at the camp, August _.'>, 1 MT, the provisions for all the otlic.rs of the expedition consiflted of thirty-two sacks of rice for the regular dish. There were 110 cases of condoiu-cd milk, eleven line of cocoa milk, thirty-four one-pound tinB ,.f biscuit, iive cases of sugar, thirty-one caases of tea, scventy ca-.es of butlcr, scven cases of choco late. forty-two, cases of jant, eightccn cases of sard'ines, twenty-threc of Liebig's cxtract, tl.roe of cotlec.

The rations doled a.ut .>er man lor a period of three months were as follows: One and ..ne-fourtli pounds of cofTr-e, o,ie and one-l.alf tius of salt, one pound ti, tea, oa* and oi.c-half tins of butter, two tins of con ,!,.?_._ mUk, /one. anti one-fourth -\p.._nr_| ?f lOgar, one and one-lialf tins of jam, a, hall pouud of Hour, a half tui of Nd h.-rring, a tin of choc.latc and milk, ?,?. ot eaooa, one of sardines. one of sau_aKe. ona ?f lanry biscuit, one pot of Liebig's cxtract. a Utia-tei of a pound of tapio.-t. and a quart.r of a pound of BfS 1 am not co.nplaini.ig berause ws I,:ii, tm/iittie: We were ?lad |8 get U ; but, let . n.an irv to cstimatc how long he could mako UM. rations last, Wc wi-rc tinally foroed to (.-lt mo.il.lv biscuit aud spoiled rice.
