THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.


volume is attributed by the Court to the partial
EXPLOSION Of two or more Of the forward maya
sines.
The evidence OF the divers establishes that
the after part o. the ship was practically IN
tact and sank in that condition very few
minutes after the explosion. The forward part
was completely demolished.
Cpon the evidence of a concurrent external
cause the finding OF the Court is follows
At frame II the outer shell OF the ship, from a
point eleven and one-half feet from the middle
line Of the ship and six feet above the keel. when
IN It's normal position. has been forced UP so as
&C be now about four feet above the surface
Of the water. therefore about thirtyfour feet
above where II would be had the ship sunk
Injured. The outside bottom plating is bent into
a reversed V-shspe "A" the after wing OF
which about fifteen feet broad and thirtyt wo
feet In length frame l. to frame 25) is doubled
back upon itself against the continuation Of the

the vertical keel is broken IN two and the fiat
keel bent into angle similar 20 the angle
formed by the outside bottom plates. This break
IS now about six feet below the surface Of the
water and about thirty feet above its normal
position.
In the opinion OF the Court this effect could
have been produced only by the explosion OF a
about frame IS and somewhat on the shore side
OF the ship.
The conclusions OF the Court
That the loss Of the Maine not in any
respect due 10 fault negligence on the
part OF any OF the officers members Of her
crew.
That the ship was destroyed by the explosion
Of a submarine mine which caused the partial
explosion Of two more Of her forward maya
zines: and.
That evidence has been obtainable fixing
the responsibility for the destruction Of the
Maine upon any person or persons.
have directed that the finding Of the Court
OF Inquiry. and the views Of this Government
thereon, be communicated to the Government
OF Her Majesty the Queen Regent, and do not
permit myself 10 doubt that the sense Of justice
OF the Spanish Nation will dictate a course Of
action suggested by honor and the friendly re-
lations Of the two Governments. II will be the
duty OF the Executive 10 advise the Congress Of
the result and in the mean time deliberate con-
sderation is invoked.

The opinion Of the Court that the destruction
Of the ship was caused by explosion Of a mine

defamation. is accepted on account OF the high
character Of Captain Sampson and his colleagues
as experts on explosives Naval experts have not
wished 10 believe that the explosion was due TO
