WITNESSED THE MAINE EXPLOSION.
Claims 1t Was Entirely Different From the

Blowing Up of the Vizcaya.
That the explosion of the United
States battleship Maine in the har-
Dor of Havana was due to an outside
wine is almost confirmed by the
story Of Captain Frank Stevens.

Washington. Capt. Stevens, in an
interview, said:
II saw the United States battle.
ship Maine blown up in the harbor
of Havana. | saw the destruction
Of the Spanish fset under command
of Admiral Cervera
II noticed in the explosion OF the
Vizcaya's magazines that they
blew right up in the air and did not
burst or rend the ship "a the Maine
explosion did. The, 1 think, proves
conclusively thai there was mire
under the Maine
1.-TWO weeks ago to day we were
steaming to the eastward when l
saw the Spanish ships escaping
from the harbor of Santiago. The
City of Washington had been off
Santiago proper. We were heading
to the eastward and bound further
down the coast The cruiser New
York, Acting Rear Admiral Sampson,
was just off cur quarter and she
signalled to US that she would pass
under our port quarter.
I'VE were then about little more
than five miles to the eastward CT
the mouth of the harbor of Santi
ago The New York turned around
at once, and soon after we could see
her ports thrown open and the ship
cleared for action. We followed in
the dire ction where the rest of the
American fleet were engaging the
Spanish ships
During the heavy engagement
that followed it was hard for US to
distinguish just what result there
was from the firing. l know that l
never was so happy in all my life as
when I recognized the straight,
military mast on board the big bat
tleship that was burning futiously,
because I then knew that the ship
that was being destroyed was one
of the ships belonging to Admiral
Cervera's feet.
eve saw the Oquendo and the
Vizcaya ashore and burning. 1 stood
on the bridge, together with my
officers, and watched the magazine S
blow up on the Vizcaya.
First the forward magazine ex
ploded. It was then that came to
the conclusion that the destruction
of the Maine was not due to the
explosion of her magazines, but to a
mine underneath.
"On the Vizcaya the magazine
shot straight in the air. There was
no tearing of iron and steel to the
the right or to the left.
"Not even the Vizcaya's bridge
was destroyed. It was lief. intact,
just s it had been before the explo-
sion. There were two big search
lights ON the bridge of the Vizcaya.
These were not destroyed either. ]
thought at first that there were two
men standing on the bridge.
1t was the same way when The
after magazine exploded on the Viz
caya. Here again the shots were
straight up in the air. The sides Of
the ship were intact after the explo
sions There were no broken iron
or steel plates to be seen.
After the explosion of the Maine
it was entirely different. Not only
were her decks destroyed, but hel
sides were demolished as we'll.

Richard T. bland of Missouri last night

ing the Cuban-Spanish situation to a
Washington correspondent of the World:
Eve are waiting for the report OF this
committee of inquiry, which is supposed
to be hard at work probing ion the facts
in the Maine disaster. When ! say we,

are not pressing matters because WE want
to hear what this board has to say. We
want TO know whether it is going TO find
tie Spaniards guilty on blameless and we
want to know other things III this con
nection.
"What the administration proposes to
do, of course do not know; but unless it
drives the Spaniards out OF Cuba the PEG
pie OF this country are going to ask the
reason why and their demands will be
strong and emphatic. l do not believe
congress will adjourn until it knows what
the president is going to do for Cuba |
believe these sentiments are these OF the
house of representatives"

General Miles prepared an elaborate
scheme contemplating the transfer of in.
fantry and cavalry from the interior posts
to the stations along the scaboard. This
order was sent to Secretary Alger. who
failed to act ON it previous to his depar-
ture from home, when he had been APP
priscd of the death of his sister. The or
der Is one which does not require the
immediate movement of troops, but was
gotten up TO be used in the event OF hos
tilities. Advices have already been sent
to the commanding officers, giving them
warning of the possibility Of such an or.
der as General Miles has prepared.
Much il being done, however, which
can not be disclosed. 1t is properly con
7idered an unNise thing when the coun-
try is on the verge OF possible war to
make information known that would, if
it reached the press, speedily fall into the
hands of the enemy.
Unfortunately the American navy il
not as we'll equipped with torpedo boats

Is fast approaching has led to orders be.
