Boston Navy Yard onioials Say Accident.

BOSTON, Feb. 17.-There was but one
sentiment expressed at the navy yard
in relation 10 the disaster to the bait
tleship Maine. It was a feeling that it
was due to accident and to no other
cause. This accident for I cannot con-
slider II other than an accident" said
one Of the officers, recalls the blowing
up Of the British gunboat Dotterell in
the straits Of Magellan a few years ago.
How II happened was never known and
never will be known. That the bow was
blown 20 pieces is no indication that
the explosion came from without. as
nothing else could have happened had
her forward magazine exploded"
