weeks In and out operations Of these
interests have made the general Situa-
ton and outlook of tho market even
more uncertain than before. What has
most upset the trade, c~ndeavoring to
follow the recent bull leadcrs, has been
the absolute failure OF either the
bullish statistics on tho side, or the
stronger market at Liverpool and bet

than III this country, to encourage any
new outside investment or speculative

TORPEDO STARTED IT.
That Is Still Belief Of Naval Officers
Regarding the Maine.

Washington, July IA board Of
naval officers, experts in explosives, Is
being selected by the navy department
to study the hull of the battleship Maine
in Havana harbor as the water is
pumped from the cofferdam now sur
rounding the wreck.
The navy department officers are
convinced that the examination will
prove the correctness of the Sampson
board which decided the destructive
explosion which sunk the Maine was
caused by : torpedo or mine and that
the explosion of the ships magazines
followed.
In view of the renewed interest at
taching to the actual cause of the de-
struction of the Maine resulting from
the uncovering of the wreck by the
army engineers, General W. H. Bixby,
chief of engineers, who has just re-
turned from Havana, has issued the
following signed statement:
The work of unwatering the Maine
so far proves nothing as to the origin
OF the explosion of the magazines, but
already shows such extensive destruc-
ton of the forward part of the boat
tnat It is quite probable that further
unWatering will fail to give any proofs,
either way, as to the origin of such ex-
ploslons. I have so far made no reports
or statements as to the origin of the
explosion
Admiral NTeIvilIe's Theory.
Philadelphia, July Rear Admiral
George w. Melville, retired. u. S. N.
says that he believes the former bat
tleship Maine was blown up by one of
her own magazines.
7 have always maintained that the
Maine was destroyed from within and
not from without" Admiral Melville
said. I have said that the examina-
ton of the ship in Havana harbor
would prove that the explosion occur
red within her. One of her powder
magazines was situated between two
coal bunker heads and one of the shell
rooms also was nearby. The coal, TAX
ing fire, probably heated the shells in
the shell room and caused the ex-
plosion.''

chicago, July 7.-WHEAT- Export sales
here and disquieting news from Morocco
neiped give bullish tone today to the
market for wheat. The trade was in
fluenced also by an expected falling off
in world shipments and by apprehension
OF continued dry weather in the wheat

CORN-Belief that with clear skies.

Tor president Taft does not intend to

dine there in more or less state when
the presidents duties keep him in town.
PRESIDENT Taft's weekend cruise on
the Mayhower, which begins late to-
night at Philadelphia, will not be a
partisan affair as at first supposed.
Inc president has invited eight sena-

four are Republicans and four Demo

tors Penrose of Pennsylvania, Root of
New York. Briggs of New Jersey. and
Brown of Nebraska, Republicans; Tay-
