LONON, April L. Details have .
been obtained by the Associated .
Press of the manufacture Of .
. submarine mines in London for .
Spain, which was brought to the at .
tention of the United States embassy .
and cabled to the Associated Press .
March 4th. man whose cards de- .
. scribed him as being an electrical en- .
. gineer and whose name was forward .
. ed at the time to Washington, then .
. said he had sold to Spanish officers .
In London. several years ago, large .
. number of mines, eight or ten Of .
. which were placed In Havana harbor. .
he said they were made in special .
way and had specially constructed .
. cable, which he could identify If the .
. smallest piece were produced. and he .
. added that some of the mines were .
. fixed SO that they could be fired from .
. Tort, while two OF them had bulbs .
= so arranged that they would explode .
upon vessel coming in contact with .
them. The man added, however. that .
q ne did not believe the bulbs would be
. used in water as shallow as that in .
. Havana harbor. Finally. the man ex- .
. hibited plans of the mine which he .
said was most likely to produce the .
erect described as causing the wreck .
OF the Maine. 1t was numbered and .
was constructed to contain 500 pounds .
= OF gun cotton. .
Lieut.. Com. j. c. Colwell, the United .
states naval attache, has since in .
Vestigated the matter, and he made .
report on the subject to the United .
states government. The facts learned .
strongly tended to show that Havana .
= harbor was mined, and 1t was unques- .
honably proved that Spain purchased .
mines Tor that purpose. The firm of .
Lattimer, Rhodes & Clark, electrical .
engineers, during 1SS7-S filled q large .
order for Spain of a lot of mines, in .
winch were used fourteen and half .
tons OF gun cotton. The work was .
directly under the surveillance of
Gen. fernandez and Capt Buste- .
mento. The latter was then the head .
OF the Spanish torpedo school, By
order OF these officers these mines
were divided into four consignments, .
Tor Havana, Ferrol, Cadz and Car .
thagena. The mines were manufac- .
tured under the direction of J. P. Glib .
bons, after Gibbons patents. which .
are described In Siemens' book on tor .

SUIT DISMISSED.
Action in Case of Brndfeld Against
Roberts and Others.

The suit instituted several months ago by
Joseph Bradfield against Ellis II. Roberts.
treasurer of the United States, and others.
has been dismissed by Judge Hagner in ac-
cordance with the mandate of the Court of
Appeals.
This is the case in which the complainant
sought to enjoin the payment of money un-
der a contract made by the District Com
missioners for the erection of a contagious
ward on the grounds of Providence Hospi-
tai. The complainant contended that the
Commissioners were without constitutional
authority to make the contract because, as
he alleged, the hospital was a sectarian in
Stitution.
Judge Hagner granted the injunction.
which judgment the Court of Appeals re-
Gently reversed. The United States Su-
preme Court will, it is said, be asked to re-
view the case.
