TO RAISE THE MAINE.

Presidents Taft's administration
will seen the end of the long con-
trovefsy regarding the practicable
lty of raising the Maine from the
harbor at Havana. The president
has approved of the plans which
tail for the construction of Golfer
dam about the hulk and for the
pumping out of all water within.
This will leave the old battered
warship on dry land which was
formerly at the bottom of the har-
Dor. Il is hoped that the work will
DC completed by February 10 of
next year, the 18th anniversary of
the destruction of the battleship.
The raising of the Maine will
settle, il is thought, all the argu-
ments as to whether it was blown
up from outside or inside. There
nave been many rumors, strength
cned by the governments refusal tol
raise the ship, that the explosion
came from the powder magazine |
ana that il was such an accident
that caused the Spanish-American
war too be- FASTENED if not declar-
I'd. Spain has been invited to send
a representative TO Havana harbor
10 watch the developments. 1t is
.he presidents idea that the ques-
ion oi how the explosion occurred
should be settled for all time and
nat the work should be hurried.
There have been many plans sub
nitled to him for the raising of the
but, until this latest one,
zone would satisfy.
