when they punp out the water.
The fact is. the Maine is never going
to be raised by amy Golfer dam method.
The nature of the bottom of the harbor
does not permit Of that method. Tina
lotion around the Maine is too soft and
the mud extends 70 too great a depth.

The method adopted by the army en-

Divers have been working for days tryiua
to locate and remove the obstructions,

Mr.. Brady was asked If anything had

which destroyed the Maine came from
