plosion took place Oh board the United

Dor. Scorex were killed or wounded.
All the boats Of the Spanish cruiser
Alfonso XIII. are assisting. The vessel
took fire and In still burning. As yet
the cause Of the explosion In not ap-
parent. The wounded xallOrs Of the

believed that the cruiser IL totally de-
stroyed.
The explosion shook the whole city.
The windows were broken In all the
houses.
The widest CONSERVATION prevails
In Havana. The whurves are crowded
with thousands Of people. II il be-
lieved the explosion occurred In q
small powder magazine.
The correspondent of the Associated
Press says he has conversed with sew
eral Of the wounded sailors and under.
stands from them that the explosion
took place while they were asleep, 70
that they can give no particulars as
to the cause.
Captain Sigsbee and the other officers

sistance OF the Maine and her wound
ed. The Havana iiremen are giving
aid. tending carefully to the wounded
as they are brought on shore. 1t is 4
terrible sight. General ZolanO md the

Captain General Blanco to take steps
to help the Mnines crew In every way
possible.

occurred In the bow OF the vessel. Or
ders were given to the other officers to
save themselves ns best they could.
The latter. who were literally thrown
from their hunks In their night cloth
Ing. gave the necessary orders with
great se,f-lsOssesxiOn and bravery.
The hrst theory was that there had

or dynamite below the wnter.
