Conclusions Of the Court.
The conclusions OF the court are:
That the loss of the Maine was not In
any respect due 10 fault or negli-
gence on the part OF any OF the officers
or members of her crew.
That the ship was destroyed by the
explosion OF a submarine mine, which
caused the partial explosion OF two or
more of her forward magazines: and
That no evidence has been obtainable
fixing the responsibility for the de-
struction OF the Maine upon any person
or persons.
/ have directed that the finding OF
the court of inquiry and the views of
this government thereon be communi-
Gated To the government OF her majes-
ty. the queen, and l do not permit my
self TO doubt that the sense of justice
OF the Spanish nation will dictate a
course of action suggested by honor
and the friendly relations of the two
governments.
1t was the duty of the executive
to advise the congress of the result.

wainwright's Testimony.


Lieutenant Commander Richard
Wainwright testified that the regula-
tions in regard to paints and inflamma-
bles and all other precautions were
strictly carried out on board ship. EV-
cry possible care was taken TO avoid
accident All visitors were scrutinized
before being allowed to come on board
the ship Nobody was allowed unac-
companied. Special lookouts were re-
uuired at night. No unauthorized boats
were allowed to approach the ship.
There was fine discipline, obedent
crew, quiet men. He was in the cap
tain's office at the time of the explosion;
felt a very heavy shock, and heard noise
Of falling objects on deck. Thought the
ship was being fired upon. Was told by
the captain TO see the boats were low
cred. He saw few men coming, most
ly officers. He saw no reason TO flood
the magazines because water was COM
ing up. He saw fire forward. Boats
began to crowd around the wreck.
He induced boats TO take the wounded
to different vessels. He ordered a list
taken of the saved and wounded. There
was excellent discipline after the ex-
plosion. orders were followed with
promptness of drill. The only order
not obeyed was the one to leave ship.
He first examined the wreck at day
light the following morning. He took
gig, with Lieutenant hOOu anu Il rev
men. and attempted to board the wreck.
He was warned off by an armed boats
crew of Spaniards and then pulled
around the wreck. There were still
some burning fragments.

TO Havana for the purpose of doing
diving duty on the wreck. He had de-
scended four times, making about eight
or nine hours of total examination. OIL
sen told how on his first descent he
went over the forward part OF the ship.
To use his own expression, he said Il
found the wreck all blowed up. / found
a lot OF crate bars down there" The

Alderman Chas. Veil is one of our most enterprising and progressive public citizens. He is always ready to advance theinterests of the town. When Mir. J. B. Johnson started out with his list for subscribers to stock in the proposed cotton factory, Mir. Chas. Veil was the first man to sub scribe his name for $500, but through lapse of memory the writer failed to put Mr. Wells name to the list pub- lished yesterday. The GRAPHIC hon. ors Mr. Veil for his putlic enterprise, and we hope the example set by Messrs. Veil, Geisreiter and Lang ford in subscribing $500 each for the proposed enterprise will be followed by others of our citizens.

THE GOOD TEMPLARS.

I. o. G. T. hall was filled by a gay throng last night on the occasion Of the regular weekly meeting of Garden Valley lodge No. 1. Three members were added to the roll of the lodge, and considerable business transacted, after which the doors were thrown open and several invited guests entered to en- joy the excellent programme furnished by Company A, ably led by Captain Bertha Smith. First came a piano solo by Miss V1na Andrews, followed by select readings by Miss Stambaugh and Mrs. Alderman, and an anecdote by Mrs. Clifford. Editor Moore read the Good Templar Free Press," a fortnightly periodical, replete with good advice and pungent points. H. F. Couch gave sermon as a colored circuit rider. The last number was a comic dialogue in which Messrs Jameson, Couch and Welcome and Miss Smith participated. Officers will be elected on next Monday night for the ensuing quarter. The programme next Monday night will be furnished jointly by the two companies
