the dust for a part of the day, which
made the marching of the veterans a
pleasure both to themselves and the
large number who had come in from the

year. The procession started from

Remnants of the Maine,

When the wreck of the Maine has
been raised and inspected, all questions
in regard to the explosion settled, and
such parts as may be of value secured,
it rs the intention of the war department
to tow the remnants out TO sea and sink
them In deep water. That is, II Congress
does not interfere. That 1t should is
hardly to be expected. The work OF
raising the wreck is being rapidly ac-
complished, and when it is fully exposed
there will be a thorough examination by
experts, and that will require some time.
When all is done that is intended by the
engineers the wreck should be disposed
of as suggested, but 1t should be done
in a formal manner and with naval hon
ors. The Maine will always be historic,
and the great tragedy hat had so much
to do with bringing two nations into
conflict will never be forgotten. 1t will
not be necessary that the wreck be
placed on exhibition either by the gov
eminent or by show people who have Of
fered large sums for IL. AS the wreck
rests upon the ocean floor the story Of
the destruction of the ship and the loss
OF its gallant officers and crew will keep
the name alive in other nations as well
as our own.-[Lynn Item.
