was not external. Rear Admira. George
w, Melville, U. d N. retired, has also
offered statement in which he calls at
tention 10 the fact that since 1902 he has
, Insisted that the explosion was from
within the ship. A board OF naval Off
GERS, experts of explosives, is being selec-
ted TO study the hull of the Battleship
Maine in Havana Harbor, as the water is
pumped from the coffcrdam now sur
rounding the wreck. The Navy Depart
ment is still convinced that the destruc-
tion Of the Maine was caused by tor
pedo or mine, and OF course this Ii laid
to the Spaniards. II is explained that
an external explosion might have taken
place which in turn caused greater in
ternal explosion ofthe ships magazines.
This theory would harmonic all views
in reference TO the blowing up OF the
Maine.
Senator Gamble Tired
The feeling appears TO be increasing
that most Of the questions of legislation
will not be considered at this special ses-
sion, and statehood for New Mexico and
Arizona are likely to be among the mat
ters that will go over this session. The
Senators are anxious to dispose OF Cana
dian reciprocity and the tariff bills, after
which their disposition will be to hike
for their homes or the summer resorts.
4
The direct election matter is likely TO be
disposed OF, providing the fight that has
been precipitated by the Bristow amend
ment can be settled by the conferees.
The question OF campaign publicity is
also likely TO remain unsettled, as the
Senate probably will find it is unable 70
dissose OF the issue. The Senate Census
Committee has reported the bill for the
reappointment of the House member
ship, but Senator Root, Of New York,
and several other eastern and middle
western Senators are strongly opposed to
the passage of the bill at the special
session.

WASHINGTON, July l2.-About q
year ago the Merchants Association oil
New York started movement against
the express companies which was ioined
by similar commercial organizations
throughout the country. While others
were agitating the need OF parcel post
through the Post Office Department,
these commercial organization have
persistently fought shy of that issue and
instead have contended for the regula-
tion of the great express companies that
control so great portion of the trans.
portation of the country. No state in
the Union failed 10 respond to the move
ment and number OF the South Dakota
commercial organizations and of other
states west OF the Mississippi joined in a
petition to the Interstate Commerce
Commission to investigate and ok rates,
The Commission has finally by its own
motion declared in favor of sweeping
investigate of all the express companies
in the United States. That the express
companies view this movement upon the
part of The Interstate Commerce Com
mission with considerable alarm is evil
denced by the fact that al almost the
same time that the order was made, the
companies filed new tariff which are be-
lieved to be material reductions in rates.
GAMBLE and caaadian Reciprocity
During his remarks concerning the
Canadian recipe ocity matter, Senator
Gamble devoted himself somewhat to
the principle of the protective tariff
policy and warned the Senate that there
should be no attack for reductions on
that principle. The following is an ex.
tract from his speech. since the inau.
gufation OF the protective policy by the
Republican Party we have accumulated
