The News Confirmed.

Washington Feb. ia dispatch was
received close upon midnight from Cap
tain Sigsbee, confirming the news of the
destruction of the Maine by mysterious
explosion and saying: Send light
house tender from Key West for crew
and few pieces of equipment still above
water No one had other clothes than
those upon him. Public opinion should
be suspended until further report. All
officers believed to be saved. jenkins
and Merritt not yet accounted for.
Many Spanish officers, including rep
resentatives of Captain General Blanco,
now with me, and express sympathy"
(Signed) Sigsbee.
From the wording of the dispatch the
navy department thinks it possible that
Jenkins and Merritt were on shore at
the time of the accident. The secretary
of the navy received another dispatch
from Key West at the same time with
the above, but it's contents were not
made public. The orders for the light
house tender were at once sent to Key
West in plain language. thus avoiding
the delay that would have arisen from
the use of cipher.
With the exception of the secretary
and Captain Dickens the naval colony
here was ignorant of this disaster, the
greatest which has befallen the Ameri-
can navy since the disaster at Apia
years ago. The secretary is inclined to
believe that most of the officers of the
Maine were on shore at the time of the
accident, as it was still early in the night
While neither the secretary nor Captain
Dickens is inclined to discuss the par
ticular cause of the accident. several
suggestions were ventured upon. They
believe that it may have been caused by
a fire in the bunkers, heating of the
bulkhead near a magazine, or that an
accident may have occurred while in
specting high explosives for torpedoes.
OF course this is mere speculation and
the secretary anxiously awaited a
more detailed report from Captain Sigs-
bee.
The united opinion. [volume] (Bradford, Vt.) 1881-1970, 1898-02-18

Captain Sigsbee and the other officers
have been saved. 1t is estimated that
over 100 of the crew werekilled, but it is
impossible to give exact details.
Captain Sigsbee says the explosion &C.
Cured in the bow of the vessel. He re-
ceived wound in the head. Orders
were given to the other officers to save
themselves as best they could. The
latter, who were literally thrown from
their hunks in their night clothing, gave
the necessary orders with great self
possession and bravery.
The first theory was that there had
been a preliminary explosion in the
Santa Barbara (magazine) with powder
or dynamite below water. Admiral
Manterola believes that the first ex-
plosion was of a grenade shell that was
hurled over the navy yard. He ordered
that boats of all kinds should go to the
assistance of the Maine and her wound
ed. The Havana ffremen gave aid. tend
ing carefully to the wounded as they
were brought on shore.
1t was a terrible sight. General So
lano and the other generals were or
dered by Captain Blanco to take steps
to help the Names crew in every way
POSSIBLE.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Line the Wharves.
Havana, Feb. 16.-At 1O:45 last night
a terrible explosion took place on board
the cruiser Maine in Havana harbor.
Many were killed or wounded. All the
boats of the Spanish cruiser Alfonzo
XII assisted in the rescue.
The explosion shook the whole city and
windows were broken in all the houses.
The correspondent of The Associated
Press conversed with several of the
wounded sailors, who said that the ex-
plosion took place while they were
asleep, so that they could give no par
ticulars as to the cause.
The widest CONSERVATION prevailed
here The wharves were crowded with
people. It is believed that the ex-
plosion occurred in a small powder
magazine. Captain Sigsbee and the
other officers have been saved. 1t is
estimated that over 100 of the crew were
killed. but it is impossible to give the ex-
act details.

The force of the shock threw the car

smashed, the hood stove in and consid-

were at the time about a dozen passen-

women. They were hurled from their
seats, but that was all, for not one of
them was injured, though they all had
a narrow escape. The motorman was
thrown off the car and cut his head in
the fall, but he Jared better than Frank

An Accident Defined.
ST. Louis, Feb. 15.-In a decision of the
United States court of appeals, rendered
yesterday, affirming the decision of the
lower court, wherein Mrs Sarah l.
Smith obtained judgment against the
Western Commercial Travellers asso-
citation for $4,000 on the death of her hus
band, Judge Sanborn gives the judicial
conception of the word accident.
Freeman o. Smith of this city died
from bloodpoisoning in 1895 as the result
of sore toe, the skin of which had been
abraised by a tight shoe. Mrs. Smith
attempted to collect the accident policy,
but was resisted by the association. A
jury in Judge Adams court gave her
judgment for the amount of the policy.
The company appealed.
Judge Sanborn held that the death of
the defendant had been brought about
by an external agency and that it was an
accident What is not the result of de-
sign or prearrangement," said the judge,
is accidental. No mH1 Intentionally
wears the skin off his toes, and such in
Jury must be considered accidental"

Got Twenty-Five Years.

Boston, Feb. 15.-Among the sentences
imposed by Judge Hardy in the Suffolk
county superior court yesterday, was
one of rs years under the habitual Grim
inal act upon James w. Buckley, alias
George williams, alias James w. Wood,
alias James M. Woods, convicted Of
breaking and entering. Buckley took
it as calmly as an ordinary man would
take a much needed vacation. Judge
Hardy explained to him that the law
left no alternative to the rs years SEN
tence, and asked if he desired to say any
thing. Buckley had nothing to say, so
the formal proceeding was over in less
than a minute. Buckley began to
serve the first day of his sentence in
solitary confinement last night. He is
colored and about 80 years old.
