MAINE WRECKERS COMPLAIN.
Men Objected When They Were Not
Paid Off December Is.

Some inkling of dissatisfaction on the
part of the workmen engaged in the at
tempt to expose the wreck Of the battle
ship Maine, in Havana harbor. has reach
ed the War Department. but it is not be-
leved that the men have any real griev-
ance One matter of complaint was that
the men were not paid off December Is.
The engineers point out that it is not the
practice to pay the men engaged in en-
gineering work oftener than once each
month, and there is no reason for making
an exception in the case Of the Maine
wreckers.
1t also is known that the wrecking work
progresses without friction when Capt.
Ferguson, the engineer officer in charge
of the operations on the Maine Is on the
spot. 1t is necessary, however, for him
TO pay an occasional visit to New York.
He also is obliged to give his attention to
other engineering projects with which he
is charged, 50 that it is not possible for
him to remain continuously In Havana.
