Uucovering the Maine.

Parts of the Maine-thickly covered
with marine growth-invisible to man
since an explosion rent the ship and sent
her to the bottom Of Havana harbor, are
now exposed by reason Of the outpump-
ing of water from within the cofferdam
built around the wreck. Thus far the
water has been lowered only five feet
and pumping has been suspended for two
reasons-to note the effect of pressure
of the outer water against the caissons
forming the cofferdam. and to await the
arrival on June IA of the board which
will view the debris and reach, II pos
sible, a final judgment of the cause of
the destruction Of the ship. II the cais-
sons hold against the weight Of water
bearing on their outer side. the survey
of the wreckage will be quickly made.
The strength of the caissOn cofferdam is
matter of disagreement among engi-
neers. There were those who did not from
the beginning approve the plan of con-
struction. Even believers in the caisson
plan expressed some doubt that the
cofYerdam would hold when 1t had been
pumped out, but as events have pro-
gressed doubt on this score appears to
have declined and the world hopes the
enterprise may be successfully completed.
When the wreck of the Maine is re-
moved and buried at sea or other honor

The tariff did II. At the extra session

The tariff ID stiil the issue. And the
republicans are still divided on 1t. The
terms reactionary and progressive are

carrying reproach. The progressive re-
publican considers the reactionary brother
a repudiator of rarty promises. while the
latter characterixes the former as a demo-
crat in disguise and a would-be betrayer
Of his associates.
How much longer is this state Of affairs
to continue? Every day of 1t adds to
the difficulty. Every new snarl begets
another. Every epithet makes fresh
wound. Election day, 1t is true, Is eight
cen months away. but 1t is high time for
peacemakers to get busy.
The gossip about turning down Mr.. Taft
seems to have little excuse but that OF
providing entertainment. II he is not the
leader Of his party. who is? And If he Is
the leader. what excuse will there be
when nomination day arrives for setting
him aside? And for whom should he be
set aside, and why?
There are some able men in the ranks
of the so-called progressives. But can
We think of Mr.. Cummins dominating the
situation on the tariff question on the
strength of his fight against the Payne
bill? Or of Mr.. La Toilette successfully
leading the republican hosts on the
strength of his advanced position gen.
orally? Is he not. indeed. too far ad-
vanced for leadership where the rules OF
the game require that a leader shall be in
sight at least of the following?
These two men are the strong men of
the men classed as anti-Taft-probably
the only ones seriously canvassed as OF
presidential size. But while both are of
national reputation. neither at present
exercises more than a local influence. 1t
is inconceivable that either will IN twelve
months so grow in party power and favor
as to take station above Mr.. Taft and
wrest party leadership from him. But
some of the speculation on the subject
shows ingenuity for entertainments sake.
and therefore finds readers. Believers
probably are scarce.

Central American Conventions.

Two OF the American Central American
conventions are now pending-the MIC
araguan loan convention having been
signed by Secretary Knox and Minister
Castrillo Tuesday and the Honduran con-
vention having gone to the Senate last
January. The American State Depart
ment aims to promote and perpetuate
peace In Central America. 1t believes
that the conventions which have been
entered into would. should the Senate
concur. constitute q practical peace meas
ure; that the buying power Of the people
of Central America would increase from
year to year; that trade between the
United States and Central America would
be stimulated and that the peoples Of the
north and south would be united by
strong and constantly STRENGTHENING COM
merciai ties. The convention with Mica
ragua has been negotiated. as was that
with HondutaA to the end that the hnan-
cisi stability And Industrial development
Of these neiShbor countries may be ad-
vanced; that the revolution nuisance msy
Evening star., 1911-06-08

be abated; that the periodicaf seizure OF
custom houses by political grafters may
be prevented and that the cost to the
American people, estimated to average
81, ,00O.OO0 a year, for sending warships
and landing marines and sailors for the
protection Of American interests may be
rendered unnecessary. With the ratifi-
cation Of the conventions the occupation
Of the 6libuster. 50 far as the republics
indicated are concerned, would be gone.
The State Department has before It the
example OF 6anto Domingo. Before the
conclusion OF the late convention that
republic had been a source Of intermit-
tent. one might even say constant, trouble.
Since the conclusion of the Santo Do
mingo convention the United States has
had no trouble there. Creditors have re-
ceived money due them, internal improve
ments have progressed, the customs tarin
has been lowered to the mutual benefit
OF Americans and the people OF Santo
Domingo, and the inhabitants of that
once turbulent country are attending to
business. making money and spending a
goOdly sum for American goods.
Nicaragua has been a prey of revolu-
tions and revolutionists. Being forty years
in arrears on payment of debts, her credit
is bad. The danger Of entanglement with
foreign creditors which might involve
the United States is always present. Ze-
layaism left Nicaragua in bad fiscal
shape. The United States did what 1t
consistently could to end the regime of
the mad dog Of Central America" and
the completion Of its good work would
vastly increase American prestige through
out Latin-America and open up wide
fields for American enterprise.
Against the Nicaraguan convention
there will be raised the cry that it has
received the approval Of the house Of
Morgan and that the hand of Wall street
Is in the deal. The council of foreign
bondholders Informed holders of the
various Nicaraguan securities that the
firm of Morgan was willing to take an
option on their bonds at SO much on the
dollar II the United States would arrange
to provide a sufficient security. man
lending money usually requires some Sc
curity. 1t is way that all money lend
ers have. Nicaraguan securities are scat
tered among many people of large credu-
lity and small business sagacity, and
would not be attractive as investments
to bankers who observe business princi-
pies unless some responsible party or
government were to stand sponsor for
the paper.
The conventions involve the principle
Of dollar diplomacy''-that is, construct
i've diplomacy-which prefers the use of
dollars to the use Of bullets. Or, as de-
fined by the State Department, dollar
diplomacy is that system of diplomacy
which involves the use Of American capt.

that there was every probability that

going excellence Of Mr. Hammond's

cure for him a furlough to go to Eng

This substantial recognition OF the
work of our first colored band instruc-

quent. That his commanding officer
and the men he instructs are going to
give him trip across the water is the
highest possible compliment to him,
and incidentally discloses the fact
that they wish to do better and better
work. In the two years yet remaining
