MORE OF maine

Havana, June 20.-The water in the
cofferdam surrounding the wreck Of
the battleship Maine in Havana har-
Dor has been lowered by further pump
ing until it is now fifteen feet below
the surface of the water in the harbor.
The work revealed the fact that the
explosion did damage the midships
section of the vessel. The port deck
was bumped up and the side of the
ship beneath blown out. This may
mean that the boilers were exploded
by the heat of the flames which fol-
lowed the main upheaval. Another
theory is that gases which had been
generated in the interior of the vessel
sought the line of the least resistance
and forced out the ships side.
On the main deck were found the
bones of two human arms and the rem
nants of a mans foot to which part Of
the shoe was still clinging. These
CHASTITY relics lay to starboard of the
after turret
I'm the captains cabin was rubber
coat, a rubber stamp and sundry other
small articles of the same material.
They had deteriorated but little during
their long immersion.
The water in the cofferdam will be
held at it's present level until the decks
are cleared There is slight leakage
from the outside and the pumps are
kept working, but the cofferdam Is
holding well.

LOCUSTS IN NEW YORK
Seventeen-Year Variety Play Havoc
with Young Fruit Trees.

Middletown. n. Y, June 19.--Despite
the fact that the state entomologist at
Albany some time ago announced that
the farmers and fruit growers had lit
tie to fear from the visit of the seven
teen-year locusts. fruit growers in the
fruit belt along the Hudson claim that
their young trees are being seriously
damaged # not killed by the locusts.
They show marks as if they might
have been inflicted by finely pointed
cog wheel with pressure applied. In
each of the cuts are three CT four
eggs. This condition is said to be
general among young trees. Millions
of locusts infest every part of Orange
county and there is continuous roar
through these districts.

EXPLORING THE MAINE
A. Water Is Lowered Examination Of
Afterdeck Is Continued.

Havana. June 10. = General Bixby
ordered the pumping at the wreck of
the Maine resumed and the water was
lowered to liz feet below the level
of the water outside the cofferdam.
The work of cleaning of the afterdeck
was continued.
On the starboard side of the after.
deck there was found an ammunition
box which was cleaned and opened
with difficulty. Its contents included
rife cartridges in dips and knife bay
onets. The bayonets showed most
startlingly the action of salt water on
steel blades and brass hilts. The
electricity generated had reduced the
steel to a shapeless mass.
