Objections to the Use of Dynamite
COfferdam to be Built.

Havana, Nov. 10.-Captain of the
Port Young has asked the government
to refuse any and ell proposals looking
to the removal of the wreck of the Unit
ed States battleship Maine by explosives.
Last year three firms offered to remove
the hull of the battleship in return for
the material, but there has always been
a strong objection to the use of dyna-
mite, because of the probability that
there are portions Of bodies still in the
wreck, and the authorities shrink from
the idea of Dissertation
A scheme has been submitted involv-
ing the construction of cofferdam, the
pumping out of the water and taking of
the wreck apart in pieces: and work on
this line will probably begin next month.

A LICENSE REFUSED
Arrest of the Proprietor of the Bijou
aThea:sf.
when He Tendered Money to the COL
Iector the Latter Declined to Take
It-Mr. JohnkOh's Statement.

Allan s. JohnsonI proprietor Of the Bijou
Theater, was arrested this morning by Po-
liceman Cover of the first precinct on a
charge of conducting an unlicensed theater
The warrant was issued from the Ponce
Court this morning on the affidavit of Will
lam j. Donovan: license inspector Being
anxious to have the warrant served imme-
diately, the inspector took the writ TO police
headquarters, and afterward to the first
precinct, where 1t was placed in the hands
of the officer. Judging from what he was
told by the license inspector. the policeman
attached considerable importance to the
case, and decided TO accompany the defend
ant to court instead of notifying him to ap-
pear in court as is usual in such cases. Nj
johnson was found sat the theater by the
officer, who went with him to court From
court the officer accompanied him to the Of
flee of License Clerk Montague. where the
amount of the license tax was rendered and
refused.
Il don't refuse to give you the license
said the clerk, but merely desire to hold
up the case until l receive further orders.
1t is not o personal matter with me- but
merely a matter of duty
why won't you give me a license?' in
quired the theater owner.
Acting Under Instructions,
The license clerk said he could give no
reason for holding up the license other than
that he was acting under instructions.
When he refused to accept the money, Mr..
Johnson called at Collector Davis office
and made a similar tender. Being unable
to get anybody to accept his money he re-
turned to the Police Court with the officer.
Prosecuting Attorney Pugh continued the
case until Friday morning.
The license year begins November l. and
the warrant charges the defendant with
having violated the law since that time
While the reason for holding up the license
was not given, License inspector Donovan,
that complaint had been made about the
character of the play there this week. He
said he had seen part of 1t himself, and
night to see the play.
Proprietor JOhnsOn's Statement.
Mr.. Johnson, speaking of the affair, said
he could assign no reason for the refusal
of his license. He also criticised the action
Of the authorities in having the warrant
served on him in the manner in which it
was served, About ten days ago, he said
Commissioner Wight witnessed a perform
ance at the theater. and the only fault he
had to find with it was that part of it was
suggestive. Mr.. Johnson said that every
time the Bijou gets on a paying basis some
body tries to cause trouble There is some
thing behind this prosecution, he declares,
but what it is he does not know. The aues-
ton of license will be settled in court
Friday, unless the Commissioners take
some action in the. meantime.
