The New York Press says:
Key West, March l6-The board OF In

In all probability that verdict Is Nthat the
Maine was blown up from the outside.
The Navy Department will receive the

thought probable that special messenger
would carry II, starting on to.night's boat
for Ia. npa. From there, even by special
train, 1t Is not believed that messep ger
from the board could reach Washington
before Saturday morning.
The report contains 100000 words. In
addition there are diagrams accurately
drawn from descriptions OF tho divers, who
were sworn to secrecy in unfolding only
to the board members what they had
found.
1t does not seem possible that the board
will find 1t necessary to return to Havana,
as 1t Ia understood that there all evidence
necessary has been given, Some further
testimony will b" ken here Tomorrow.
While the boarU W ! absent In Havana

from the Tortugas aud were placed ID the
