VIEWS OF THE JUNTA's LAWYER.
Confident Spaniards Blew Up the
BnttIeship.


BnttIeship.
New York Feb. 16.-An evening paper
quotes Horatio S. Rubens counsel for the
Cuban junta in this city, as saying: TAX
ing everything into consideration 1 am
convinced that the tragedy in Havana
harbor was the work of the Spaniards
81 do not believe, as has been suggested
that it was the result of an explosion of
gun cotton. Too many of our boats have
been in that climate, and such an ac-
cident never occurred to any of them.
ut is well known there has been very
bitter feeling among the Spaniards in
Cuba against the Maine. Canalejas own
paper, the Heraldo, has repeatedly stated
that the presence of the Maine was a
menace to peace and 1t was to the same
editor of this paper, it will be remembered.
that De LONE wrote his famous letter
AT bun fight in Cuba a week ago Sun
day the Spaniards openly insulted men
from the Maine. and the feeling against
them has gradually grown to be very
bittera
cit would have been comparatively easy
10 plant a torpedo under the Maine be-
cause our men are constantly passing back
and forth in those waters at night, and eS-
cape the surveillance of the authorities.
Now, if our men could do so, why should
sot the Spaniards? If the act was a ma
licious one it was not the work of any
one man, for no one person could get to-
gether sufficient explosives to blow a ship
of that sort to pieces.
eff any spaniards did it they certainly
acted in connivance with the Spanish au-
thorities. l feel certain it was not the
work of Cubans, because II they wanted
to blow anything up they would have di-
rected their force towards Spanish vessels
or that beast Weyler long before this.
II have received no official communica-
ton from Cuba as yet in regard to the
matter"

process of chemical decomposition, and so
fired the magazine.
The theory that the officers were over
hauling the torpedoes al that time of the
night, the paper dismisses as preposter-
Gus.
The Daily Mail says editorially: THE
suspicion Of Spanish treachery exhibited
by a section Of the American public looks
i'll beside the accounts of the splendid gal
lantry of the suspects in saving drowning
Americans. and it indicates an ugly tenn
per towards Spain"
The Times editorially expresses pro-
found sympathy with the United States.
With reference to certain ominous opin-
ions heard in America" it says: "Fortu-
nately for America and for the world the
United States is not governed by persons
of this type. So far not only the govern
ment, but the people of America and of
Spain have acted with good sense. good
feeling and dignity. 1t is ferventiy to be
hoped that the Investigation will prove
the cause of the disaster an accident, al
though the conditions which can have led
up to such an accident in such circum-
stances are rather obscure"
The Standard and the Daily Tel
egraph contain similar editorials. The
Standard believes the casualty to
have been purely accidental, but it sug-
SN9eo that IL may ne even feasible TO at
tribute such an outrage to Cuban insur-
gents desiring by means, however I'M
scrupulous, to involve Spain in foreign
war"

of kilograms, opinions, theories and the
like.

1T is impossible to refrain from the sus-
picion that the explosion may have been
caused by foul means, although the an

auxiliary machinery. If an Internal ma
chine had been hidden in the coal and
thrown into the furnaces obviously there
would have been an explosion of the
boiler and, as a result of the magazine

the Explosion.
Key West, Fla, Feb. 16.-The Plant
steamers Olivette with sixty-two survivors
of the Maine arrived here tonight at 7:3O
o'clock, seven and half hours from Ha-
vana. OF the number. twenty are wound
ed, ten seriously, and one fatally.
Capt. Merrill. with a company of the
First Artillery, took possession of the dock
before the arrival and kept back an ex-
cited crowd, including half the population
of Key West, a majority being Cubans
and mulattos. No one not In uniform was
allowed on board.
The Associated Press correspondent saw
Purser Denison Of the Olivette, who gave
the following brief account: 1.-THE ex-
Dioslon is an absolute mystery to every
one. 1t occurred in the forward magazine
which is lust forward Of amidships and
below the water line, The coal bunkers
are outside, but are separated by two feet
of air space.
According to custom the magazine was
INSPECTED at o'clock in the evening. The
temperature was found at 50 degrees. The
magazine was locked and the keys given

hammocks in the forward part of the ship
soon after o'clock.
1.-THE explosion occurred at $40 O'Clock
and was so awful and Overwhelming, that
no one can vet give connected account
About ten In the forward part of the ship,
were saved and Of these several had ham
mocks slung on the lower deck.
''The explosion split the big ship In two
and threw these and one marine sleeping
on the superstructure forty feet in the air
and into the water.
In the magazine was twenty-five tons OF
coarse powder, used for charging the big
guns. There was no dynamite, decorating
powder, nor torpedo heads, and nothing
that could be exploded by concussion In
the main imagining aft high explosives
were stored. This magazine did not ex-
plode. There are no electric wires con-
Meeting with or near the magazine.
II is not believed the Maine was de-
stroyed by torpedo underneath II so,
a hole would have been torn In her bottom

Cause OF the Explosion More Than He
Can Understand.
Galveston, Tex. Feb l6-Ohcers Of the
battleship Texas and the cruiser Nashville
were shocked at the news from Havana.
Up to late hour tonight, the navy de-
partment had not communicated with
Capt. Phillips of the Texas. So far as
known the boats will remain here until
Feb. %.
Capt. Phillips said: Il cannot see how an
explosion on board the Maine would be
possible. Neither can 1 imagine the possi-
bility that a torpedo was exploded under
the Maine. 1t is unreasonable that any one
would have done such a thing and thereby
incur the enmity of the whole world"
Capt. Phillips to-day gave leave to sew
enty-fve of his men to go ashore FOR
twenty-four hours.
This afternoon Capt. Phillips telegraphed
to the navy department that he still had
on board the Texas twenty-six apprentices
whom he brought from New York, who
had not been transferred to that ship
His object in giving this informa ton was
that the parents of the young men may be
relieved of any anxiety they may feel by
reason of their supposing their sons were
on board the Inflated Maine.

London. Feb. 16-The headlines of all
the London newspapers hint that the dis
aster to the Maine points to treachery.
either Cuban or Spanish, and the papers
allude to the excitement and resentment
at the Names dispatch TO Havana.
The Daily News, commenting on the dis
aster to the Maine, says: The disaster
reaches the very extremity of horrors.
The public feeling of the world, shocked
by this dire calamity, will do well to imi-
tate the restraint imposed on that of the
United States by the Washington govern
ment and the captain Of the Inflated ship.
For suspicious of foul play there seem 10
be absolutely no warrant, though natur-
ally they haunt the minds of many Ameri-
cans They should be entertained only
on absolute compulsion. A spark of mis-
directed national feeling might cause ter
rible mischief.
"The attitude of Spain at this agoniz-
Ing moment will either efface the memory
of the De Lone incident forever, or re-
vive II with added circumstances Of Bit
terness and evaporation that cannot be
contemplated without a shudder, The ca
lamity sends a pang to every British
heart"
The Morning Post in an editorial OF pro-
found sympathy, expresses the nope thdl
certain American senators who have al
lowed themselves to talk rather wildly,
will suspend judgment The paper does
not believe in the torpedo theory, and
thinks the disaster the result Of an acci-
dent. but It fears the real cause will never
be known.
The Daily Chronicle says: British
sorrow and sympathy are little less vivid
than If the casualty had happened 10 one
of our own ships" 1t thinks the theory
that the boilers burst absurd, and. after
expressing the opinion that there is no
apparent justification Of foul play" It sug-
gesls that some new and dangerous ex-
plosive which was on board, with view
of experiment, should an occasion arise,

ROOSEVELT ON THE CRISIS.
Congress Blamed for Not Authorize
ing More Warships.


Washington, Feb. 16 Great excitement
prevailed at the capitol and navy de-
partment this morning over the explosion.
The general impression prevailed that it
was an act of treachery on the part of
spanjsh enthusiasts, growing out of the
De Lone incident.
The Morning News correspondent had an
Interview with Assistant Secretary Of the
NAVY Roosevelt on the subject, which will
be read with interest. Mr.. Roosevelt is
very cautious in commenting upon the
Maine disaster, but ne evidently REGARDS
the situation with extreme apprehension.
In the absence of any details as to the
cause of the explosion, he naturally fta1s
treachery on the part of the SpaniIrds
while not advancing any well defined the

SENATE COMMITTEE SERIOUS.
Members of the Foreign Relations

Washington, Feb. 16.-The Maine Incl

affair Is not officially before the committee.
but nevertheless is allowed 10 displace el-

Spain makes 1t very plain that no Span

A prominent member said after the close
OF the meeting that Spain would be ex-
pected to make an explanation that would
entirely clear up the mystery. II she did
not this country would have the right to
demand such an explanation.
Most of the members of the committee
refused after the conference to express any
opinion concerning the occurrence.
1T Is too serious to talk about at pres
emit" said Senator Lodge, while Senator
Cullom said
Il can't see how the explosion could
have been the result OF an accident and

Senator Clark would only say:

SPANISH SYMPATHY.
Madrid Editors DepIOre the Disaster
to the Maine.

MHOEAu EuAtOEE DcpiOHe the Dls8steE
to the Maine.
Madrid, Feb. 16-The United States
Minister Gen. Woodford, did not receive
the news of the loss of the Maine from
Washington His first indmation of the
news came from the Spanish rear-admiral,
who called at the United States legation
to express, in behalf of the Spanish gov
eminent, regret for the disaster which had
befalleu the American warship. The de
tails then reached Gen. Woodford in the
dispatches of the Associated Press.
The impartial publishes an extra edi-
ton saying that the news had produced a
deep impression in Madrid.
The premier Senior Sagasta, personally
informed the Queen Regent of the loss of
the Maine.
The Epoca says: whatever the rela-
tions between Spain and the United States.
Christian feelings and humanity compel
us to regret the catastrophe. The spec
tacle of so many lives suddenly launched
into eternity inspires compassion"
The Heraldo remarks: Although the
Americans try to represent US as a people
devoid Of virtues, we must face this horri-
bic misfortune sincerely and express feel
ing of compassion" adding: I'm the face
Of provocative Americans we shall al
ways remain proud people; but in the
face of men in misfortune, of whatever
nationality, our hearts are always full Of
pity"

SURE II WAS A TORPEDO.
Commodore Montgomery Has No
Faith in Spnniards.

Chicago Feb. 16-Commodore J. E.
Montgomery, once of the United States
navy, commanding officer of the Confed-
crate fleet during the civil war, and the
man who raised the frigate, afterwards
the ram, Merrimac is very emphatic to-
day in declaring that the sinking of the
balleship Maine was the result of treach-
cry and an act without parallel in the
worlds history.
When the divers go down and examine
the hull of the vessel" said Commodore
Montgomery, sit will be found that it was
stove in Bye torpedo exploded under the
bow with diabolical intent. To be sure,
an accident may occur on shipboard,
magazine or boiler may explode. But,
consider all the circumstances, and you
will not entertain the theory of accident,
In the history of our navy there never
has been such an accident. Why should
the first one occur in so perfectly equip
ped vessel as the Maine and under so
capable commanding officer as Sigsbee?
Why should il occur in Havana harbor,
where The vessel was at the mercy of an
enemy capable of treachery, as we know
the Spaniard is, and has been so long as
Tie ngured in history. Why should it fol-
low SO closely the recent exposure of the
spanish minister to the United States as
