The correspondent of the Associated

they now believe that object has been

Aguinaldo professed entire ignorance

interviewed about the purchase Of the

Mr.. Bacon was very reticent,

This from Russell Sage, the penurious
New Fork millionaire, is refreshing
Il have private information, that the
destruction Of the noble war ship was
due to foul play Il was che work Of
Spanish fire-eaters. No accident caused
the terrible catastrophe. The ship was
blown up, according to my information.
s'Whether or not the country will be
satisfied with mere money reparation,
however, remains to be seen. Judging
rom the temper Of the people now, It
seems to me that more energetic action
will be demanded. The people, / think,
feel that if treachery be proved, money
cannot make amends for the unparal
leled outrage,

Henry Alfred Lewis, the New York Jour
nal Correspondent, Gives Names
and Details.
He Claims To Know Just How the Mine
under the Maine was Located
and When.

Alfred Henry Lewis, the famous New
York Journal correspondent, cabled his
paper from Havana on Wednesday as
follows: =. &
The Maine was blown up by sub
marlDe mine. 1t was Spanish govern
ment mine, of Spanish construction, set
by Weylerian Spaniards, and exploded
by their hands. 49,. ~. @ :
The proof will cover the question of
Weyle1's completely.
the Maine was slip Chandlery store
called Gel Navio." Its owner is named
S. Garcia Trinon, whose rank is colonel
of the volunteers. e. .
He led the assassins who sunk the
Maine.
There were seven of them. = .
Trinon is not now in Havana.
He fled to Spain on the first boat which
left after the Maine went down. Three
of the seven are still in Havana, and are
maintaining themselves with much Of
muteness and decorum. - -
Where did the mine come from which
sank the Maine? 1t was not an original
harbor mine, so comes my story. It was
placed beneath the Maine after she was
swung to the harbor buoy.
The mine, with all its riggings and all
else needed, was obtained from the Span
ish transport, La Gaspe.
The captain of La Gaspe is Weyler-
lite. The mission of his vessel is to car
ry explosives and what else is needed OF
war sort to the port arsenal at Havana.
The mine which sank the Maine never
went to the port arsenal.
In the employ of the conspirators were
three Spanish divers of the government
corps. Their names we're Alvarez and
Abella. Two were brothers, the Alvarez.
These three placed the mine and the
rigging needed to make it work beneath
the keel of the Maine. One of the AL
varez has not been seen since.
The two who now live, Alvarez and
Abella, were not paid their blood-fee of
$4,000.
They got drunk, and told the stony.
All agree, who tell of 1T, that the mine
was placed one night and fired the next
There are others who say the work was
done from the Stern of the Alphonzo.
There will be details which will furth-
er disclose that the root of the conspiracy
was III Madrid, and the chief head of it
Weyler himself.
War is what that butcher wants.

UNITED SERVICE.

Second of the Advent Series at St.
 Johns Episcopal Church
 The second of the united advent ser vices was held in St Johns Episcopal church last night. There was a goodly attendance. Some special music was rendered by the surpliced choir. The sermon was preached by the Rev. MT. Henry M. Ladd of Rutherford, N J.. His text was the 18th verse of the 9th chapter of St. John. He said in part: Once more the church repeats the story of our Lord and Master. We view Him in a two fold manner as a divinity and as our Lord, and this attracted the at tention of the people of the gentle world at this season of the year The force of the judgment day is no more powerful than in this advent season. Our Lord was young the same as we are or have been, and was tempted the same as we, but He was without sin He is the head of the race and knows it as it does not know Him. He came to save the world from sin. He places the people Tn the position where they nave to choose between God and the devil or between good and evil. Men are compelled to choose and the choice is the accepting or neglecting of Jesus. When the people were fearful that the day of judgment was near at hand St. Paul arrived and assured them that it was not and the church settled down to it's work, realizing the long future before it. Christ comes in every case, and is always present when we want Him. The Christian does not tremble at the thought of the awful judgment of Jesus. Some people will have to be made all over unless they change their ideas about heaven. A judgment Is passed on each one every day, but the day of final judgment will determine all.

NEW HAVEN VESSELS MISSING.
Two Not Yet Heard From Since the
 Severe Gale.


 Two Not Yet Heard From Since the
 Severe Gale.
 Much anxietyhas been felt recently yb vessel owners living in New Haven and by relatives of men employed on yes- sells sailing from this port as the effect which have prevailed Among the missing craft is the Harry Prescott, a three masted schooner which on Mo- vember 15 last sailed from New York for Savannah with a cargo of phos- phate. She was due to arrive at her destination several days ago, but her whereabouts is not known. Her com mander is Captain Craig, well known to local shippers and vessel owners.
 The Abbe Holmes, a three master, which it was feared had been wrecked while on her way from Philadelphia to Providence, arrived at the latter port yesterday. She is commanded by Cap- tain Joseph Holmes, who reports that he rode out the gales near the Delaware Breakwater He reports that he has seen nothing of the schooner Hanscom, sailed by his brother. Mrs. Holmes, wife of the Hanscom's skipper has tel egraphed to ports all along the coast but has been unable to find any trace of the missing vessel. The schooner Sylvia c. Hall reports having seen on Thursday night last a vessel off Mon- tauk, bearing distress lights. The Hall on account of the gale, was unable to render assistance. It is thought that she might have been either the HaEs- com or the Prescott. The Hanscom sailed from New York for Providence more than week ago and no news of her has been received since she left Philadelphia.
 While the Sylvia c. Hall was on her trip up the coast she sighted the four master Mount Hope of Camden, Masn.. owned principally in Fall River. The Mount Hope appeared to be in distress, and was hailed by the Hall whose skip per, Captain Lowe went aboard the Hope and found nine feet of water in her hold. The Hopes captain and crew desired to abandon her, being thoroughly discouraged Captain Lowe, however sent all his men aboard the Hope, and set them to making repairs. Captain Mclean being encouraged, stuck to his ship, and when the re- pairs were completed and the hold pumped out, after three days delay, the Hope turned on her course and con- voyed by the Hall sailed to Chesapeake bay, where Captain Lowe saw her safe into port. The Hope and her cargo were valued at $75,O00. Captain Lowe, who has before extinguished himself in like manner, yesterday received from the owners of the Mount Hope check for $100 as reward for his bravery and generosity. A card of thanks to him from Captain Mclean has also been published.
