ON THE BRINK OF
 AN EXPLOSION Ingalls, Sees the Breath of War in Every Passing
 Breeze.
Special to The Age-Herald.

Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 22.-''I believe we are on the brink of the most tremendous ex- plosion that has ever been known in the worlds history said former Senator In- gals tonight
 '"There are many causes which contrib ute to this crisis. This gigantic arma- ment of the European powers, the terri torial encroachment of the rival powers in the Orient and in Africa; the war of the laborng masses against their own con- dition, and the accumulation of wealth by the other class. All are prepared for conflict. I do not think it wise or pa- triotic to seek to plunge this nation into war without due deliberation and full provocation. I am as good an American as any one, but the American people are conservative and patriotic. I think they will await the result of the official in- quiry.
 If it developes that the Maine disaster was the work of a Spanish brigand and Spain disavows any responsibility or con- nection with it, I do not see that our friendly relations should be interrupted.

HARRISON ON MAR

Speeches Made Was1,ington's Birthday
 CeIeoratfcn.

New York. Feb 22.-Senator Lindsay. in the course of his speech, referred to the DeLome episode and the Maine disaster. saying that no southern representative had up to the present intervened to prevent an amicable settlement in 8 peaceful way of the great and vital questions involved but all were ready, as were the people of the south, for prompt action when action be- came a necessity.
 Senator Lindsay, in conclusion, said:
 For thirty years the south has consent ed to accept a secondary place in the gov- ernment of this country; but the time has come when the south must assert itself for tho preservation of Americanism in which the north seems to be last. The time, too, has come when the south must also assert itself within the council cham Der, as it has always done, that the dignity of this nation must be maintained and if the call to arms is sounded from nowhere will the response come more quickly than from the south.'

THE OPINION OF
 EXPERT zAL|BSK| Disputes Theory That Magazines Would Not Have Exploded
 From External Force.

For The Age-Herald by Captain 2. L.
 Zalibski U. S. A., Retired.
 New York. Feb. 22.-The question of whether any of the magazines were all of the forward magazines of the Maine have been exploded, is still in doubt No conclusive proofs havo yet been presented in various statements which have been cabled from Havana to settle this one way or the other. In one instance six-inch case has been found battered and contain ing no powder. This is cited as proof that magazine might have exploded. The can might have been an empty one, which had been crushed and battered in the general wreck. Had a charge within 1t exploded it is hardly likely it would haze retained any sembance of a can.
 Again, later information indicates that a ten-ineh can has been found which is s.lp- posed to still contain powder. Again 1t may be stated that had there been any powder within the can, and that powder had been exploded, the can would not have retained its form.
 The probabilities are that the 6-inch can was one that was elnpty at the time of the accident, which was crushed ir the general wreck. The 10-inch can, if 1t still retains powder, may have been crushed in the maelstrom Of the general wreck. If it does

 Chicago, Feb 22.-At the Union League clrb's celebration, ex-President Harrison, in referring to Cuba, said
 we stand now in the awful shadow of one of the most tragic events that has ever happened in our history. and yet we stand with the self-possession of people who understand their might and can abide the developments of time. We are not hystcrical people. We can wait. and we will know our duty when it shall be re- vealed. We can understand that in time like this there are grave responsibilities devolving upon the president of the United States, single responsibilities that he may not divide with any man. Let us stand about him, strengthening him in the calm assurance that this great country desires only what Is right, and can wait until the facts are known before it issues it's proc lamation.'

Shows Was Hung

Hattisburg, Miss, Feb. 22.-Lem Shows was executed here this afternoon for the murder of Harriet Murphy. His neck was broken by the drop and he was pronounced dead in twelve minutes. When the sheriff announced to Shows thah his time had come, the condemned appeared to be al- most dead from fright. A deputy sheriff on each side helped him to his feet and led him to the gallows At the scaffold he was as helpless as a child, and had to be supported while the moose could be ad- justed. Not word escaped his lips and he was apparently more dead than alive when the drop fell.

 not contain powder 1t Is probable ta,at it had not contained amy previous to the wreck.
 It Is not specifically stated whether these cases have been found within a magazine The fact that they retain any semblance of their former shape would appear to in- dscaite that the magazine in which they had been placed had not exploded.
 In discussing tine question of the explbs- ion from accidental cause within, or ex- ternal causes, some authorities are quoted as saying that had the explosion been ex- ternal, the magazines would not have been exploded.
 This does not seem to be well founded. Magazines are separated from water by only the double bottom of the ship. The external platte of this double bottom is only half an inch in thickness. The inner plate is stated to be three-tenths of an inch thick. Surfaces between upper and lower plates is coated with cement.
 It is evident that this bottom could not offer much resistance to the dtsrpptive force of a torpedo even if 1t were within a number of feet from the bottom.
