There is no doubt that each OF tho
ranges could. under pressure. turn out
a materially larger output than Is nam
cd under the 1893 estimate. Considered
by ranges, In order OF tonnage, tho
larger mines may be expected to pro-
duce approximately the amount OF ore
tingencies arising during the season
will alter Individual cases but will not
greatly affect the aggregate result.

THE MAINE DISASTER.


Examination of Cervera's ships Proves
IL Was Due to an External Cause.
Off Santiago de Cuba, July &c.
ANY doubt that may have existed
that the Maine was blown up by an
outside bomb is dispelled by an exami-
nation of the destroyed Spanish ships, :"
said member of the board of survey
that examined the remnants OF Adj
miral Cervera's fleet. "Of the four
ships examined, three were blown up
by their magazine exploded and every
torpedo in addition, yet on none of
them was there the same effect pro-
duced as by the explosion on the
Maine. There was no upheaval of the
keel. and little bullying of the plates,
except In the immediate vicinity of
the explosion. The effect was nearly
altogether upward, in some cases the
protected deck being lifted; but outside
of the springing Of few plates, the
hulls were intact"
The examination of the wrecks of
the Spanish ships was made first for
the purpose OF aseertaining the effect
of American gunnery, and second, to
find the effect of an internal explosion.
Both subjects bore upon the Maine
incident, as noted above.

Troops Mentally Depressed.


Santiago de Cuba. via Kingston.
July 26.--The report published in the
United States that there are so cases of
yellow fever in the cavalry division
proves on Investigation to be unfounded.
Captain House reports that there is no
sickness. The First, Sixth and Ninth
cavalry. the First and Tenth infantry
regiments and six companies OF the
Randolph light artillery. are encamped
about two miles northwest OF El Caney,
at the base of the mountains. The
camp Is apparently perfectly healthy,
as to the location. and has good wa
ter supply. The ground is well
drained.
Malarial fever Is prevalent, but it al
ways yields to quinine treatment in
the course OF four or five days. The
fact that immunes of the regiment
have this fever as freely as the other
men shows that ii Is not yellow jack.
There have been no fatalities from ma
larial fever thus far. but so long as the
men are exposed 10 the hot sun during
the day. the increasing rain and heavy
dews, malaria will increase and our
men grow worse. A second attack is
much more difficult to eradicate, espc-
cially in the case Of men exposed to the
present conditions.
The army Is mentally depressed by
inactivity, and the uncertainty as to
its future movements, together with
the increasing malarial fever,
