THE WRECK OF THE MAINE.
ing the same name steamed past Moro
castle and anchored but a short dis
lance away from the wreck of the old
vessel. The new Maine went to Cuban
waters to be of service In connection
with the formal transfer of govern
mental authority from the hands Of
Governor Magoon back to the Cubans
themselves and their duly elected pres
ident, Jose Miguel Gomez The visit
of the new Maine called attention to
the fact that the wreck of her now his
toric predecessor still lies In the har-
Dor Of Hayaua, an obstruction and n
menace to navigation. President Roose-
welt has recommended to congress that
an appropriation be made to remove
the destroyed hulk.
1t was on Feb. 10, 1898, that the old
Maine was blown up in Havana har-
Dor. There is movement in progress
now TO bring about a general patriotic
observance of this date yearly as
"Maine day" The incident of the blow
ing up of the vessel is one of the most
tragic In our national history, and as 1t
was the event which directly brought
on the war with Spain It has had most
farreaching results, affecting other
nations besides ourselves. Strangely
enough, the question of how and why
the Maine was destroyed remains still
unanswered.
