in each instance asked a fee of 81. In
some cases he was successful, but he
usually received only 80 cents, where
upon he would give the name and adj

to employ help. In every case they
found either that no one was wanted or
a vacant lot was located at the number
given. Haight was held in $500 bond

Successful Salvage of Big Guns and
Torpedo Appendages.

Havana, March 2S.-The naval board,
consisting of Captain Chadwick and
Lieutenant Commanders Cowles and
Wainwright, appointed to decide upon
the disposition of the portions of the
wreck of the Maine. which it is not
possible to save, held meetings last
night and today. Its decisions have not
been made public, but it is believed its
purposes were accurately outlined in
last nights cable dispatches. Captain
Chadwick sailed on the Bache for Key
West at I o'clock this afternoon.
The Mangrove has moved nearer the
wreck The derrick barges have taken
aboard four 6-inch guns and all the
war heads of the torpedoes on board the
Maine, as we'll as d number of rapid fire
guns and some shells. They may sail
north with a cargo of powder from the
main magazine aft. Ii is in bad condi-
ton from immersion and difficult to
get at, as are the big shells. Another
61inch gun will be recovered soon,
leaving one out of the entire secondary
battery which is not likely to be found.

Captain Hamilton. flying the British
naval reserve ensign, came into port

SPAIN BEsEECHEs DELAY.
Request Is Made at Washington
Through Senior Polo.

New York. March 2S.-Spain, although
apparently defiant. has asked for further
delay before the United States does any
thing more about Cube, says the Wash
ington correspondent of the Herald This
request was made through Senior Polo y
Bernabe. He promised in Spain's be-
half that she would lay before the state
department at an early day a plan for a
more liberal government in Cuba.
This plan, the minister declared, would
be so fair and liberal that il would be sat
| isfactory TO the United States and the
Cuban insurgents. and would bring about
peace on the island.
Spain's proposal is generally believed
in Washington TO have come too late
President Mckinley and the Spanish dip
donates are. however. hopeful. The
president has not yet given uD hope of
averting war, and with characteristic
patience, is ready to consider anything
that might lead TO a peaceful solution
OF the Cuban question.
Details of SPANS new plan were made
known by Minister Polo. but explained
to Assistant Secretary Day that Spain
would not yield her sovereignty over
Cuba. She would give the island home
rule, withdraw her troops and exercise
the most limited authority. but her flag
must remain over Cuba.
II was also plainly stated by the min
lister that the Independence of Cuba could
not be bought with money.
While President Mckinley is disposed to
look with favor upon Spain's proposition
1t is not doubted that. as d result Of his
consultations with cabinet members and
other leaders. tho ministry will be told
any policy Spain may adopt short of

GERMAN PRESS OPINION.
While Criticising Americans, Nc
Comfort Is Given Spain.

OOln1OIC Is 6lVen SPAIN.
Berlin. March PA high official of
the German foreign Office said today TO
the correspondent of the Associated
Press:
Germany will joyfully greet any step
to improve Spanish-American inter-
ests but this interest does not go so far
as to induce Germany to participate in
foreign mediation. Moreover, there is
no indication that America is inclined
to accept such mediation, nor on what
basis"
The Vossiche Zeitung says: 1.-The
most dangerous is the second demand,
namely, under the cloak of humanitar-
ianism TO aim at direct interference in
Cuba. The Washington government in
that goes beyond limits Spain can
make concessions without humiliation
and loss of dignity, but if America in
sists upon these demands, swords will
be brought out of their scabbards"
The Tagieblatt remarks: THE Amer
lean jingoes underrate the injuries
which a war will bring upon America. -
The Boersen Courier says: With an
earnest desire that an understanding
may be reached. even without media
ton, diplomatic circles still count this
as being the best solution so long as
neither one nor the other has taken the
irredeemable STEP
The Berliner Post, in its comments
says: President Mckinley will
doubtless do everything to avert war
but popular sentiment may decide to
the contrary

KINSMEN, HAIL!
Poem Breathing Feeling For an An
glo-American Entente.

SlO-Amerlcan entente.
London, March 29.-All the morning
papers give prominence to a poem by
Alfred Austin, the poet laureate. which
appears under brief extract from a
New York dispatch recording a feeilnB
in favor of an Aneio-American entente.
The poem is as follows:
What is the voice hear
On the winds of the western sea?
Sentinel. listen from out Cape clear,
And say what the voice may be.
'T'is a proud. free people calling loud
to people proud and free.
And # SAYS to them: "lSinsmen. hail.
We severed have been too Ions.
Now let Us have done with worn-out
The tale of ancient wrong
And our friendship last long as love doth
And be stronger than death is strong. :"
Answer them. sons of the self-same race
And blood OF the self-same clan.
Let US speak with each other face to face,
And answer as man to man;
And Loyalty love and trust each other as
none but freemen can.
Now fling them out the breeze
ShamTock thistle and rose
And the Star Spangled banner unfurl
with these
A message to friends and foes
Wherever the sails of peace are seen
and wherever the war wind blows
A m assage 10 bond and thrall to wake
For wherever we come. we twain.
The throne Of the tyrant shall rock and
quake
And his menace be void and vain.
For you are lords of a strong. young land,
and We are lords of thu main.
Yes, this is the voice of the bluff March
gale:
We severed have been too long,
But now we have done with a WORKOUT

The tale of an ancient wrong:
And our friendship last long as lost doth
last. and stronger than death is
strong.

LARGER ISSUES INVOLVED.
London Opinion On the Maine Mes
sage to Congress.

London, March 29.-The Daily News says
editorially: Again has the unexpected
happened. According to our American
correspondents report the spirit of peace
has descended upon the American public
apparently in the belief that the United
States Minister Woodruff has sent dis
patch containing assurance that Spain is
willing, under conditions. TO Withdraw
her troops from Cuba. and thus give the
island effective autonomy if not indie
pendence-
IF this be true it throws the Maine
disaster into its due perspective by giving
America due satisfaction on larger issues.
Yet there are still uncertainties The
presidents message undoubtedly suggests
some kind of reDaration. Then there is
the question of Cubas future. which is
expected TO be dealt with in tomorrow s
presidential message.
General WOodfords dispatch comes
just II tine to determine the character
of that communication. The situation
may be thus summarized: The United
States are willing to stifie their resent
ment for the loss of the Maine if they
receive satisfaction with regard to the
Cubans future. 1t is the generous com
promise. and Spain will do well TO be wise

WORK AT MARE ISLAND.
Complaint of Insufficiency of Men to
Go Ahead With Repairs.

Vallejo, Cal, March 2S.-Work on
the Charleston is greatly delayed ow-
ing to the trouble experienced in secur-
ing sufficient working force to COM
plete the repairs mapped out for that
vessel. acquisitions for additional
workmen are issued daily, but the force
is not yet sufficient to accomplish the
work necessary within the required
time, and it will be April - before the
vessel is ready for sea. She will be
transferred to the Atlantic coast.
Work on the Yorktown will not be
commenced in earnest until after the
completion of the Charleston, the en-
tire force of wOrkmen being devoted
to the repairs on the latter vessel
Orders have been received to paint

BROOKLYN NAVY YARD.
Work There Now Means Twenty-four
Hours Every Day.

New York, March 2S.-Beginning to-
day the work at the navy yard will be
under high pressure. Orders have been
issued to all the chiefs Of the yard that
hereafter work will be continued night
and day. In addition to the large work
of the yards in changing of the recent
purchases of yachts and tugs for the
auxiliary navy the ammunition hoists
of the battleship Texas may be altered.
The alterations viii probably require a
week.
A story that the Texas has a. hole in
her hull is denied bY the officers. There
are now five yachts and seven tugs in
the navy yard that have been pur-
chased for use as an auxiliary fleet.
The yachts are the Mayfiower, Her
moline, Columbina, Amy and Alicia. The
tugs are the Ivens, Wise, E. L. Lucken-
bach, w. A Luckenbach, Ell Toro,
Winthrop and Atlas. The two latter ar
rived at the yard today. The report of
the board of survey to prepare specifi-
cations and estimates for the alteration
and armament of these vessels is I'M
der consideration at Washington.

day. 1.-THE Cubans would be thankful
for the interest shown by this country.
but would have to respectfully decline
all such propositions. 1t is an absolute
loss OF time for the United States to en-
terrain any negotiations of the kind
with Spain. By an armistice Spain
would save S10.000.00 d month for six
months. The Spaniards know that the
Cubans would not enter into an armis-
tice and they desire the United States
to offer the plan that their refusal
may remove the sympathy and support

ger suggested in case of war the vet
Grams he could put into the field could
be used to man stations where federal
troops are now located that all regu-
lars might be free for use at the front
in case of war. This would obViate the
necessity of holding regulars at such

that he is very much interested in the
suggestions, but hopes the future turn
of events may make it unnecessary to
