Cristobnl Colon.

The wreckers in the employ of New
York companies who are now working
aboard the Spanish cruiser Cristobal
Colon, of Admiral Cervera's squadron,
say that the vessel may easily be raised.
In view of the fact, they say, that the
Colon has not single perforation be-
low the water line, Naval Constructor
Hobson's recommendation that the
wreck be dismantled and abandoned is
silly. The wreckers say the vessel
clearly was sunk by the Spaniards, and
that the expenditure of $4,000 would
save q splendid souvenir of the naval
victory of Santiago.
These wreckers, who have spent the
last two months taking out the Cristo-
bal Colon's brasswork. involved the
warship in new hostilites when a sec
ond band of wreckers attempted to
board the vessel. Ten shots were fired
In the melee and the second band was
driven off.
The wreckers are reaping a rich har-
vest from the condemned warship.
