QUESTION OF lDEMNiTY.
Frederick r. Coudert Interviewed OF
the Maine Matter.

New York, Feb. 22.-The Herald
tomorrow will say: Frederick R.
Coudert, formerly counsel for the
United States before the Behring sea
commission, and weu-known author
ity on international law, was inter-
viewed regarding the matter of an in
demnitv. if it can be shown that the
Spanish at Havana failed to take
proper precautions to insure the safety
of the Maine.
"Spain should pay indemnity for
the loss of the Maine," Mr.. Coudert
said, ''provided the accident is found
to be due to the negligence of Spanish
officials. The vessel went to Havana
on friendly visit and was entitled to
full protection. 1t was proper that
extraordinary precautions should be
taken to insure. her safety. 1t was we'll
known that there were individuals be-
longing to. the Spanish nation who had
i'll feelings towards the United States.
If any danger was known to exist in
Havana harbor, it was to be expected
that Spain should inform the captain
of the Maine of the fact and use every
IHeduS W pSepeII any aCClueub W Iue
vessel. If, on the other hand, man
with basket of dynamite should have
come aboard the Maine and blown up
the vessel, the fault plainly would
have been with the officers of the
vessel. 1t was their duty to keep the
strictest watch over everybody who
came on board. The destruction of the
Maina nv aocidant Or nv the act of ir-
responsible individuals would not justi-
fly declaration of war. Carnot, for
instance, was assassinated by an
Italian, yet France did not blame
Italy. Italian subjects were killed by
mob several years ago at New Or
leans. Italy was justifyed in demand
ing an indemnity, which she received,
because the men when slain were in
charge of officers of the law, who
should have made every effort to pre-
vent their prisoners from being killed.
It did not result in war;

FIFTY LIVES WERE LOST
News Of the Wreck of the
Clara Nevada Confirmed.
CAUSED BY BOILER EXPLOSION
Nothing but Some Wreckage Bearing
Name of the II1fated Ship Found
Identity of Passengers Unknown.

Notn1ng but Some Wreckage Bearing
Name of the IIlfated Ship Found
Identity of Passengers Unknown.
Nanaimo, B. c., Feb. 21.-A special
from Juneau, Alaska, under date of
February IL. confirms the news of the
loss of the Clara Nevada, and'says:
The cause of the disaster was doubt
less the explosion Of her boilers. Of SO
people on board none is believed to
have been saved. The wreck was dis
covered by Customs Inspector Mar
guam, of Juneau, who ordered the
Rustler to Lynn canal, where the burn
ing vessel had been seen. Wreckage
bearing the name of the ill-fated vessel
was found, but there was nothing to
show the identity of the passengers.
1t is thought she carried about 20
passengers, of whom two or three were
women. Several were bound for Ju-
neau and the balance for Seattle.
Frank Whitney, of Cripple Creek,
Colo, was known to be one of the un-
fortunates. AL Noyes, of Juneau, is
also supposed to have been on the Ne
vada. This is all that is known of the
victims.
The first report of the loss of the
Clara Nevada was brought here on
Monday evening. by the crew of the
steamer Islander, and was to the effect
that on February 5 the inhabitants of
Seward City, a town 80 miles south of
SEagway, saw the steamer off shore,
ab1aze from stem to stern, and that
while the witnesses to the awful sight
still watched the burning vessel loud
report, as of an explosion of boilers,
WAS heard, and that afterwards nothing
more was seen of the vessel or the luck
less persons on board of her, but that
the following day the beach in that
vicinity was strewn with wreckage.
In the absence of details of the catas-
tlophe there is now no way of learning
tile indentity of the passengers. The
crew, according to dispatch from Sc
a@tle, whence the steamer sailed on her
f tai voyage, was made up substantial
l., as follows:
Captain, G. H. Lewis, of Portland.
Pilot, Ed Kelly.
First officer, - Smith.
Second officer, Harry Bowen, of San
Francisco.
Purser, George Forster Beck, of
Portland.
Freight clerk, George Rogers.
Chief Engineer, D. Reed, of San
Francisco.
First Assistant, Thomas Williams.
Second assistant, Moser, of Seattle.
Carpenter, W. A. Jacobs
kAssistant carpenter, L. Boyle
Steward, O'Donnell.
Mess boy, Frank Bowen.
Two cabin boys, Perkins and Butler,
also known as Tascot.
There were also aboard, whose names
cannot be learned, four quartermasters,
two sailors, three firemen, three coal
passers, one nightwatchman, assistant
steward, four cabin boys, three cooks
(Chlnese) and two helpers.

Major Myrick Not Surprised.

Savannah, Ga. Feb. 19.-Major John
R. Myrick. of Fort Wadsworth, N. Y,
here attending the Carter court-mar-
tial, said today that he was not sur
prised at the explosion on the Maine, as
the Cincinnati came near suffering a
similar fate in almost exactly the same
spot in 1895, her coal igniting from
spontaneous combustion and eating its
way almost to the com partment for
storing explosives.
Dallas, Tex, Feb. ia telegram
from Galveston says the battleship
Texas and the cruiser Nashville here
received orders from the navy depart
ment to sail from Galveston at once.
Their exact destination has not been
learned, but it is accepted by the pub
lie that they go either to Admiral
Sicard's feet of Dry Tortugas or direct
to Havana.
New York, Feb. 19.-The Journal
quotes Assistant Secretary Of the Navy
Roosevelt as saying.

Of the Naine was no. an accident. .

SAILORS WANT REVENGE.
No Doubt in Their Minds That Spain
Did 1t.

Did 1t.
Jacksonville, Fla, Feb. ga spe-
cial to the Citizen from Key West,
says: Sailors of the battleship Maine
suffering from wounds, in the Key
West hospital, are smarting over the
delay OF the government in Furnishing
what they term Spanish outrage. In
their minds there is no doubt as to the
cause of the explosion, and they think
the delay in taking summary action by
the president saying he is morally GER
tain that there was an accident, is to
soothe Spaniards into feeling of Sc
curity to secure time for his ultimatum.
If no action is taken, not man among
them will again pace the deck of an
American man of-war, but if business
is meant, it will take strong force to
kept them from hurrying to the front,
wounded though they are, to take a
hand IN what they look upon as per-
sonal vengeance.
"We were warned not to go to Ha-
vana," one said today, "being told
that danger awaited us there. When
we got there it was current rumor that
the harbor bottom was honeycombed
with mines. We first chose our an
chorage and rested there for several
hours, but the harbor master compel
led US to weigh and proceed to spot
marked by buoy. We were reviled
on the streets of Havana. sneered at
until our blood boiled, and found out
for our own safety that it was safer
for US to make our visits to the city In
force. No man dared to go alone.
There was no knowing what would
happen to him. The explosion Itself
is the best evidence that it was anime
or torpedo. There were two sharp
and distinct reports. The first was
like peal of thunder close at hand,
and then darkness and chaos, made
more horrible to the screams of dying
men, the fierce shouts of those fighing
for egress and the means of those
hemmed in to die 10y fire or by dro Vn-
ing.

A NEGRo's ADVICE.
while Closing RaIIot Box A gainst Igno-
rant Omen the Schoolhouse

1
rant, Open the Schoolhouse.
New Oreleans, Feb. 22.-Booker 7.
Washington, the prominent colored
leader and educator of Tuskogee, Ala, :,
in an open letter to the constitutional
convention, now in session in this city,
in which, after explaining the motives
which prompt him to address the con-
vention, among other things, says:
"Since the war, no state has had
such an opportunity to settle the race
question, SO far as concerns politics, as
is now given to Louisiana.
''The negro agrees with you that it
is necessary to the salvation of the
South that restriction be put upon the
ballot. | know you have two problems
before you; ignorant and corrupt gov
ernment ON the one hand, and OH the
other, way to restrict the ballot so
that control will be in the hands of the
intelligent, without regard to race.
With this sympathy with you in your
effort to find way out of the diff
Guilty, l want to suggest that no state
in the South can make a law that will
provide an opportunity or temptation
for an ignorant white man to vote,
and withhold the same opportunity
from an ignorant colored man, without
injuring both men. Any law control
ling the ballot that is not absolutely
just and fair to both races will work
more permanent injury to the whites
than to the blacks.
81 beg of you further that in the de-
gree that you close the ballot-box
against the ignorant, you open the
schoolhouse. More than one-half of
the people of your state are negroes.
No state can long prosper when a large
percentage of its citizenship is in ig-
norance and poverty, and has no in
terest in government.
"Let the very best educational op-
portunities be provided for both races,
and added to this, the enactment of an
election law that shall be incapable of
unjust discrimination, at the same
time providing that in proportion as
the ignorant secure education, property
and character, they will be given all
the rights of citizenship. Any other
course will take from half your citizens
interest in the state and hope and am
bition to become intelligent producers
and taxpayers-to become useful and
virtuous citizens"

BARNET'S VIEWS.
Investigation May Show tho Magazine
Intact.

Intact.
Havana, Feb. 2.-Lieutenant-C Com
mander Barnet, of the coast survey
ent today:
"You want the facts. I cannot tell
you. There are 95 chances out of 100
that the investigation will show that
the forward magazine of the Maine did
not blow up first, if it exploded at
all, and that it was not the cause of
the terrific consequences that followed.
The condition of the wreck when first
studied and later careful scrutiny
make this an almost absolute GER
