working, which has started by clearing
away the debris and is now removing
the batteries and the turrets.
For the success of this purpose 1t
is fortunate that the Maine lies only
in about sixty feet of water, the depth
at which 1t would be almost impossible
of accomplishment and in which 1t
would be difficult to stand the wa
ter pressure, being about 100 to
100 feet. At the former depth
the guns and vessels sunk in
the harbor of Sebastopol during
the Crimean war were raised by
the Russian admiral and Engineer Po-
poff. There is therefore little doubt
but that the Maine will be easily raised.
But the work will be slow and dan
gerous because Havana Harbor
abounds with sharks. and the divers
engaged will either have to perform
their work as the Masons built Jerus-
alem-with the trowel in one hand

and the sword in the other-or else
perform their operations while protec-
ted within iron cages. 1t is more than
likely that the sharps have already
found some toothsome morsels in the
wreck of the Maine; have, perhaps,
squatted in its hull and will be dis
posed to regard Uncle Sans divers as
intruders and so to defend in their
own subaqueous way their newly found
homes.
1t is not very long since that a diver
had thrilling fight with two sharks
under these circumstances. On the
occasion in question the divers went
into the cabin of a sunken coast steam
er which had been sunk in a collision.
They found a pair of sharks at home
in the captains cabin and on being
disturbed the monsters gave fight. The
men were forced to retire, and sig
nailed to be hauled up, after which re-
ihforcoments were sent down with
sheath knives. After a tough defcnce
the sharks@were driven out, one or
them being badly wounded. But the
next day upon the divers going down
the unwounded shark annoyed them
again and kept a close watch every
day for a week. Very little work was
done until the shark that had thus lost
its home and mate was killed, being at
tracted near enough by one of the div
ers holding out his hand as bait.
When the Maine divers have cleared
away all the debris and guns, prepa-
rations will be in order to remove the
misshapen mass itself This will be
accomplished by sinking thick cyIIn-
ders filled with water to sink them.
