End Of n Long Controversy.

The Hawaiian annexation resolution
which passed the Senate by close mar
gin of two-thirds vote, ends n controversy
of many years duration. The annexation
of the islands would have been postponed
for an indefinite time had not it been for
the war with Spain and Admiral Dewey's
victory at the Philippines. The necessity
of annexing the islands became at once
apparent to the government. but it is the
necessity that compels people to drink
Heurich's beers, because Maerzen, Senate,

that the Maine was not destroyed by an
internal explosion.
Early yesterday morning an explosion
on board one of the ships was observed.
Examination shows that the explosion
was either in the forward magazine or
the torpedo compartment Its results are
different from those of the explosion
that wrecked the Maine as can well be
imagined.
The effect is chiefly apparent above the
armor belt and consists in the bulging
out of everything on the starboard of the
ship. which is ripped open to the height
of twelve feet and open edges are push
ed forward four feet. The forward pro-
tective deck, which is three inches thick
on the slopes and two inches on the fiat
is bulged upward two feet and every torn
edge of the iron flares outward. This
was an unexpected side development of
the examination. but is was so self-evi-
dent that it caught the attention of ev-
erybody at the very first
1t was fire that wrought havoc with both
ships. There are comparatively few shot
holes of large caliber. On the Maria Ter
esa the most evident one is the hole made
by the shot from 13-inch gun which set
the fire that destroyed her. The shot en-
tered the port quarter and exploded in
the wardroom. its largest fragment rang
ing upward and passing out through a
hole in her side. The hole is feet square
below the spar deck to the starboard
Dozens of 6-pounder shells are lying about
and the holes made by them are numer-
Gus.
The most noticeable hole In the Oquendo
runs through her about amidshps rang
ing downward from the gun deck. The
shell penetrated several bulkheads With
out exploding, and one could sight clear
through the ship along its course. Sew
eral big shells exploded in the ship. Along
the barrel of one of the Hontoria guns on
the main deck is a groove an inch deep,
cut evidently by the point of an armor-
piercing 6-inch shell.
At the entrance to the ships canninC
tower were found a sword and five
chamber revolver beside heap of ashes.
among which were a few bones The
cartridges of the revolver had been dis
charged. The heat had fired four. but
the primer of the other had been indant-
ed by the firing pin. The captain of the
Oauendo was not among the prisoners.
1t Is not improbable that much of the
engines of the ships may be found to be
of value and it is possible that the
wreck of the Maria Teresa may be float
ed. The Vizcaya is understood to be
badly and probably irreparaby damaged.
The Cristobal Colon is believed to be in
good condition. Notwithstanding the
treacherous efforts of the Spaniards to
render her useless after she had been
surrendered.
Considerable money has been found on
board the ships and there is known to be
$4,000 in the safe of the Cristobal Colon.
