POLICY BEING SHAPED
If NOT AN ACCIDENT DEMAND
WILL BE MADE.
AMOUNT DEPENDS ON CIRCUMSTANCES
But it Will be Good Round Sum-..Secre'
tary Holds That Spanish Government
Will be Liable if Any Spaniard
Caused the Disaster.

Washington, Feb. 26.-Secretary Sher-
man spent some time at the capitol to-
day. He talked freely with Senators
concerning the situation in Havana in
view of the Maine disaster. He told them
that no important addition to the in
formation previously received had reach
ed the department for the past few days
but stated that the situation was being
considered with the view of having a
policy developed i'm case the Naval court
now making an inquiry into the disaster
should finl that it wBs not the result of
an accident. TO this he added the state
ment that he thought an indemnity
would certainly be demanded, and that
il it should be, good round sum would
be asked. What that sum should be,
would, however, depend largly upon cir
cumstances.
The Secretary did not think the Span
ish authorities had been aware of the
:ntenti, "s of any one who may have
caused the explosion but he advanced the
tpiri0n thlt whe her they were or not,
the Spanish government would be liable
for indemnity if it was shown that any
Spaniard had caused it.

THE ACCIDENTAL THEORY,

In the pursuit Of details, some of the
ordnance officers, acting upon the theory
that the large ten-inch magazine for
ward was not exploded. have been look
ing into the contents of the smaller and
adjoining six-inch magazines. They find
that allowing for the amount of powder
that was probably consumed in practice
drills by the Maine before she arrived
in Havana harbor, there was certainly
no less than 5000 pounds of powder in
this magazine, an amount sufficient to
have caused enormous destruction had
it been exploded at one time.
When the attention of Philip .Alger,
expert OF the Bureau of Ordnance, was
called to Senor Du Bosc"s statement,
said:
1.-The statement is important as repre-
senting the position taken by the Spanish
officials who have absolute knowledge
of whether or not Havana harbOr was
mined. 1t is Of course inherently i'm
nrobabIe that such mines existed since
it is not customary TO plant torpedOes
in harbors at all, especially not in har-
tors constantly occupied by friendly
vessels. Should it be possible to prove
Senior Du Bosc'S statement to be true,
the whole theory of the Names destruc-
ton by "a torpedo will become untenable,
in my opinion. But the only proper
course to he now pursued is to await
patiently the report of the Board of
investigation and to accept their findings
as conclusive. When the first news Of
the catastrophe arrived, it was we'll to
attempt to aliay excitement by pointing
out the fact that the probabilities were
greatly in favor of the explosion having
been an accidental one. Nothing that
has yet become known should lead to
modification of this view. 1t is still
