BLOCKS REMOVAL
OF MAINE WRECK
United States Government Throws
Every Possible Obstacle in
the Way.

Washington, July 30.-There are
several reasons back of the dis
couraging letter sent by the navy de-
partment to r. H. Sewall of New Or
leans, who has a contract from the
Cuban government to raise the wreck
Of the battleship Maine, in Havana
Harbor, that lend particular interest
to this matter.
After entering into contract with the
cuban government to remove the
wreck, Sewell wrote to the navy de-
partment to know If this government
had any objection to make against the
raising of the craft The department
merely quoting the law, which says
that it is illegal for any official to
! dispose Of government property, ex-
cept in accordance with the acts of
congress. It is believed that this re-
port was sent as part of policy
prevent the revival of the Maine dis
aster excitement, as would possibly
be the case following the raising Of
the hulk.
There is a letter on file in the state
department from Minister Squiers, at
Havana, which indicates that the
Spanish government recently inter-
ested itself in the Maine case The
Squiers letter tells of a conversation
with President Palma, in which the
latter admitted that the Spanish gov
eminent was anxious that the Maine
wreck should be raised. s..-.@s
President Palma was anxious to get
the hulk out of the way, as it is now
menace to navigation, but he did
not want to do anything that might
revive i'll feeling on the part of
Americans to reopen the question of
| how the Maine was sunk. He was
told by Mr.. Squiers that the easiest
solution of the difficulty would be to
dig the wreck out of the mud, carry
it out to sea and there drop it again.
Another reason why this govern
ment does not care to see the Maine
lifted is the fact that under the wreck
there are eighty bodies of seamen
who lost their lives when the explo-
sion occurred. Their remains were
not rescued by the divers, having
been caught between the decks, where
1t was impossible to reach them.
There is no doubt that this govern
ment would be glad to have the
wreckage remain undisturbed where
it is. The letter of the navy depart
ment to Mr.. Sewell will possibly cause
the latter to throw up his contract,
for, with the possibility hanging over
him of a demand for the wreck from
this government, he is not likely to
undertake the job of raising it.

He wore his coat, but the boys, neither
one years old, wore blouses. The
guard stopped them. He explained to
the man that the boys must have
coats. The man said it was ridiculous
and appealed to Halsey c. Ives, chief
of fine arts, who issued a special order
to admit small boys too young to need
coats.
President Francis thinks shirtwaist
men look homogeneous among works of
art. He says they should have enaugh
respect for genius to wear their coats
in it's presence, and if they don't think
so, he proposes to make them.
Since the issuance of the order the

along Arizona with its small popula-
tipD-its Democratic majority is small
aqua there are some Republicans who
believe that It may soon be turned
into a Republican state and thus the
ntnocratic advantage gained by the
admission of Oklahoma and Indian
territory will be OFF set
Therefore it is said to have been
decided by the leaders that the house
committee on territories shall report
separate bills admitting Oklahoma
and Indian territory as one state, New
Mexico and Arizona. These bills will
go through the house all right, but as
the committee is having extensive
hearing, action upon them viii be so
late that the matter cannot be taken
up in the senate until next session.
BY reporting separate statehood bills
it will be possible for either body to
take up and net upon any one of them
TO the exclusion of all others, and in
this manner it might be possible to
pass the Oklahoma-Indian territory
and the New Mexico bill, and provide
that Arizona may be admitted when
its population has reached a certain
figure.
