HOW IT WAS DONE.
Discovery OF the Keyboard Which Con-
trolled the Mine Over Which the Maine

Discovery OF the Keyboard Which Con-
trolled the Mine Over Which the Maine
Was Anchored.
Cincinnati, O., March 20.-A local pa
per prints a story that the location of
the keyboard by which the Maine was
blown up in Havana harbOr has been
found by an American engineer officer.
The story is that Capt. T. l.. Huston,
Of the volunteer engineers, who en-
tered the service from Cincinnati and
who had been assigned to the duty of
cleaning out the Notifications of Ha-
vana, had discovered in the gun room
Of the Quartet de Fuerste wooden
box or hut, in which he found gutta
percha tube containing one large cop
per wire and several smaller wires.
He also found evidence of a keyboard
having been torn away. Capt. Huston
had confided his discovery to Mr.. War
rem ]. Lynch, newly appointed general
passenger agent of the Big Four, who
was visiting Havana, and said he was
about to trace the wires to prove his
theory that. the Maine was exploded
from that point. The wreck of the
vessel can be seen from this gun room
not more than hundred yards distant.
The room itself was in a part of the
prison to which access was only allow
ed to a few officers.
Havana, March 20.-Captain T. L.
Huston, of the volunteer engineers,
questioned by a correspondent of the
Associated Press on the subject of the
story, printed by a local newspaper
at Cincinnati, Ohio, saying that the
location of the keyboard by which the
United States Battleship Maine was
blown up in Havana harbor on Febru-
airy Is, 1898, had been found by him
in a gun room of the Fuerza prison,
while engaged in cleaning out the for
tifications. The captain said the use
of his name in this connection was not
authorized. He showed the CORES
pOndent a cable with several wires run
ming into the harbor from Fuerza pris-
on, opposite Cabanas fortress. One
wire was connected with diSused tel
egraph instrument in neighborinS
government building. Though the ca
BILE has not been investigated by the
United States engineers, the SUPPOSE
ton is that it runs to Cabanas across.
the harbor and has been used for tele-
graphing. There is a remote chance
that the wires in the cable were con-
nected with mines or torpedoes, but
this is no indication that it had any
thing to do with the blowing UP of the
Maine. The end of the cable sticking
out of Fuerza prison has been seen by
tourists for weeks past Many soldiers
have also seen the cable and may have
expressed the belief that it was used
to blow up the Maine

story is told by the Army and Navy
Journal Of one of our volunteer warriors
who had his home in a small town near
the Mississippi river and who had been
chosen to command the local company be-
cause of his political influence. The
ladies of his town had organized a Red
Cross Auxiliary Society. and among other
contributions to the comfort of their alb
sent heroes was a case of homemade
pajamas The box containing these were
sent to camp. but no acknowledgment
of its receipt was returned. So the good
ladies telegraphed:
Anxious to know if you got the
pajamas last week.
Now the captain had been sitting UP
with the boys the night before and when
the dispatch was handed HIM he was try
ing 10 reduce his swollen head with wet
towel. and his mind was somewhat con-
fused. So the ladies of the relief society
were astonished by the receipt of this
dispatch:
Story is lie out of the whole CLOTH
probably made up by my enemies to ruin
me politically. Admit am not total
abstainer, but never had the pajamas

PANIC AT A FIRE.

A Cleveland Hotel Destroyed by Flames,
But All the Guests Escaped.
Cleveland, March 20.-The Brook
lawn hotel, corner of Paramount street
and Euclid avenue, was partially de-
stroyed by fire shortly after 5 o'clock
this morning. Over so people were
asleep in the building when the fire
broke out. A high wind was blowing
and the flames had gained great head
way when discovered by policeman.
The latter promptly ran through the
building awakening guests. In many
cases it was necessary to break in
doors to arouse the sleepers. A panic
ensued, but all the occupants finally
escaped without injury. Several wo-
men were carried down the fire escape
by fremen. The origin of the fire is
unknown. Loss about $4,000.

PHYSICALLY SOUND.
Not Likely That Anything Will Stand in the
Way of Schley's Promotion

WASHINGTON. d. c., March 20-Win-
field S. Schley has successfully passed
the physical examination for promotion to
the rank of eRar Admiral IN the navy be-
fore a medical board convened at the
Washington navy yard. To complete the
legal test, he must also pass a moral.
mental and professional examination, and
his papers are now before board of
rear admirals which convened at the
Navy Department to-day.
1t is said to be an unprecedented thing
for an officer to fail in this professional
examination for promit:on to the rank
of rear admiral.

TAXES UNBEATABLE.
Another Revolution in Nicaragua But a
Matter OF Time.

Savannah Ca, March 20.-J. H.
Cutting, formerly of Boston, has ar
rived here from Nicaragua. He was a
lieutenant of the Rama Rifles in the
Central Nicaraguan revolution under
Reyes He says the revolution would
certainly have succeeded but for the
arrant cowardice of Reyes and other
leaders Had we had only 500 Amer
leans we would have gone through Re
laya's forces like molasses out of a gar
ret window" said Cutting, "but our
leaders were too cowardly to fight.
They showed the white feather at the
first approach Of danger"
Cutting says The taxation in Nicara-
qua is unbearable, and that the Ameri-
can owners and operatives think an
other revolution is but a matter of
time.
