With Admiral sampson's arrival We'd
nesdsy the blockade was much strength

vigorously.
Just how long Santiago can stand he-

so close that there IS little or no com

in from five and one-haIf to six faith
oms. The state Of discipline on board
and the condition of her magazines,
boilers. coal bunkers and storage COM
partments are passed in review. with
the conclusion that excellent order
prevailed and no indication Of any
cause for internal explosion existed in
any quarter. At s o'clock in the even
ing on Feb. Is. everything had been
reported secure and all was quiet. At
40 minutes past 3 O'Clock the vessel
was suddenly destroyed. There were
two distinct explosions with a brief in
terval between them. The first lifted
the forward part of the ship very per-
ceptibly. the second. which was more
prolonged. Is attributed by the court TO
a partial explosion of two or more of
the forward magazines. The evidence
of the divers establishes that the after
part of the ship was practically inta1A
and sank in that condition a very few
minutes after the explosion. The for
ward part was completely demolished.
Upon the evidence of concurrent exter-
nal cause. the finding of the court is
as follows:
AT frame IL the outer shell of the
ship. from a point Ill. feet from the
middle line OF the ship and six feet
above the keel when in its normal po-
sition. had been forced up so as to be
the water: therefore. about "a feet
above where IL would be had she sunk
uninjured The outside bottom plating
Is bent into a reversed W shape. the
after wing Of which. about Is feet
broad and 80 feet in length tfrom
frame IL to frame 25). is doubled back
upon itself against continuation OF
the same plating extending forward.
At frame IL the vertical keel Is broken
into and the keel bent into an angle
similar to the angle formed for the
outside plates. This break Is about six
feet below the surface Of the water
and about 30 feet above its normal po-
sition. In the opinion Of the court this
effect could have been produced only
by the explosion of a mine situated un-
der the bottom of the ship at about
frame 1s and somewhat on the port
side Of the ship.
The conclusions OF the court are:
That the loss of the Maine was not
in any respect due to fault or negli-
gence on the part OF any officers or
members of her crew. That the ship
was destroyed by an explosion of
submarine mine. which caused par
tial explosion of two or more OF her
forward magazines and that no evil
dence has been obtainab BILE fixing the
responsibility for the destruction OF the
Maine upon any person or persons
II have directed that the finding of
the court of inquiry and the views of
this government thereon be communi-
Gated to the government of her majes-
ty, the queen. and i do not permit my
self to doubt that the sense OF Justice
of the Spanish nation Will dictate a
course of action suggested by honor
and friendiS relations Of the two gov
ernments II is the duty OF the execu-
tive to advise congress of the result
and in the meantime deliberate consid-
Grafton Is involved.

ON TRIP NO. 100
Century Voyage of the
S. S. City of Peking.
She Enters Port With All Signals
Flying Reception on Board.
Has Piled Up Mileage.

The P. NJ. S. S. City of Picking,
Smith commander, arrived in port yes
terday morning from China and Japan
Her cargo consisted OF 494 tons Of
general merchandise, most of this be-
ing bales of quincy sacks When the
Peking entered the harbor, she was
gaily dressed with flags and remnants.
Flying at the main was a pennant
bearing the number 100" indicating
the reason for her gay appearance.
When the Picking reaches San Fran
cisco she will have completed her
Tooth voyage between that port and
Hongkong, a record that has taken
her some twenty-four years to COM
plete. During her stay in port, the
Captain and officers received their
friends aboard.
From the time the City of Picking
left New York until she reached this
port yesterday, she had travelled 1875
485 miles. But two of the original
crew remain, Christian, the steerage
steward and All zee, the Chinese por-
ter.
John F. Hackfeld and others of the
agency firm were entertained aboard
the ship and the Government banC
gave a serenade.

An Official Who Made a Slight
Mistake.

Mistake.
Col r. Jay Greene, the caretaker of
the Executive Building had bicycle
experience yesterday that is worth re-
lating. He has long had an ambition
to bestride the silent speed. hand
some wheel had stood in the big main
hallway for several hours. Colonel
Greene, with a small audience set
about to master the balancing feat.
In advance he gave it as his opinion
that any man should master the ma
chine in fifteen minutes. He lifted the
wheel from the wall, squared away be-
hind it in proper pose and showed OFF,
raising at the same time to make a
neat drop into the saddle. Instead OF
presenting the picture he had imagin-
ed, the veteran sent the wheel on the
mating while he stumbled to the wall
and stood looking at the recalcitrant
"beastie'' He had failed to notice
that the back wheel of the apparatus
was chained to the frame. Finding
out about this impeachment, the Colo
mel regained his accustomed spirits at
once and remarked that be wouldn't
use that old-fashioned wheel anyhow
that he wanted chainless up-to-date
or nothing. He may try on George
Ashley's safety.

Some day my happy dreams I shall achieve
Youth cries with joyous cheer.

Alas! for those who do not see this star
