New York. Feb. 23.-The Maine incident

says the Madrid correspondent of the
World. The majority of the Spanish poll
ticians, generals and newspapers are an

political committee is thus created outside
the insular government. and despite its
resistance, with view to virtually con-
trolling the elections and conducting ne
gotiatons with the insurgents and the
Cuban refugees abroad
The impression is that the concessions
to the extreme autonomists will lead to
making them masters of the situation
as the moderates, like Galyez and Mon

or will have to resign the moment it be-
comes known that the Madrid govern

People here apprehend that Marshal
Blanco may have trouble to keep the old
Spanish party and the volunteers quiet

tain. il is believed. to drift into some di-
rect understanding with the rebel chiefs
and the fugtives in order to secure paci-
fication before the first of May.

Maine Disaster.
New Yrk, Feb 234Engineer Albert
Holdsworth and Assistant Engineer j.
Laidrow of the British ship Olive Dene,
which has just arrived from Havana. say
that on the night of the explosion they,
with some others, were ashore. They
were sitting at the end of a pier. at the
south end of the harbor and about half
a mile from the American warship. Next
the pier was d ferry slip, and the course
of the ferryboat from the city lay past
the Maine. When the explosion occurred
a lot of Spanish soldiers and sailors in a
restaurant at the end of the pier cleared
out and ran as If for their lives. There
was no immediate blaze from the explo-
sion, but there was smoke and sparks,
Two or three minutes passed before the
flames could be seen While they stood
watching some breathless Spaniards hur-
ried down TO the pier bearing fragments
of the Names payrolls. They said they
had picked them up on hill back in the
country from where the Maine lay The
Spaniards wanted to know what the writ
ing in English meant and the engineers
after looking at the papers told them
through of their party who spoke
English. The Spaniards fairly danced in
glee at the fate of the Names men. then
the engineer said. exclaiming: "Ah,
Americanos. Americanos, They bring dy-
Mantle here to blow up the Spaniards and
they get it themselves"
When the ferry came it was found that
she had passed the Maine just before the
explosion and a Spanish army officer
aboard demanded that the captain of the
ferryboat should head about and go to
the rescue. The ferry captains hatred
of Americans was so great that there
came near being a fight.

Havana, Feb. 23.-To-day has been

The divers have been continually at

far as they could throw light on the
cause of the explosion. are kept strictly
for the court of inquiry. 1t is reported
that 20 bodies have been found under
the forward matches, but only three
have been removed owing to the mass
of chains and wreckage in the way.
The officers of the court of inquiry
during their inspection OF the wreck to-
day, discovered. 1t is said, five armor
plates projecting from the water for
ward near the bow. which We're from
the bottom of the ship. There is a good
deal of speculation as to what caused
this. many contending that the position
of the plates shows that the big maya

HANNA'S OPINION.
He Sees No Reason for the Prevailing
Excitement.


Washington. Feb. 23.-Sensational re-
ports having been circulated that Senator
Hanna had expressed belief that a con-
flfct between the United States and Spain
was imminent, the attention of the sena-
tor was called to them. He emphatically
denied them, saying:
II do not believe there is anything in
the Maine incident or in our relations to
Spain regarding Cuba that will lead to
war. / am firmly of the opinion that the
explosion of the Maine was due to an ac-
cident and / think the naval court of in
quiry will reach the same conclusion.
And congress will do nothing?'
What is there for congress TO doc
There is no information except a lot of
sensational stories upon which To base all
this talk of war. Even the secretary OF
the navy has no information and as long
the president and secretary of the
navy and all the rest of the cabinet keep
cool and quiet there is no reason for the
rest of the world to get alarmed
No" said Hanna, in conclusion, II
honestly and frankly do not see any rea-
son for the excitement that is being Gre
ated. There will be no war.

self emphatically against the present ag-
itation for war in view of the fact that
international politics is in so delicate u
condition that to precipitate hostilities

in an equivocal position. He said:
IF il develops that the Maine disaster
was the work of a Spanish brigand and
Spain disavows any responsibility or con-
nection with 1t. / don't see that our
friendly relations should be interrupted
On the other hand, If the proper disa-
vowal is not forthcoming we must ex-
pect hostlites. | believe we are on the
brink of the most tremendous explosion
that has ever been known in the world s
history. ] am convinced that struggle
for the reimbursement of frontiers is not
far off, and in view of this possibility /
do not think it patriotic or wise to seek
to plunge this nation into war without
due elaboration and full provoeation.'
