BOILERS ON BATTLE
SHIP NOT EXPL L0DED
Excavating Around the Maine Clears Up
Some Disputed Theories-Boilers
Found Intact-Engine Rooms
Filled With Mud.

Washington, D. c., Oct. l0-At least
one fact developed beyond controversy
in connection with the excavating going
on inside the cofferdam enclosing the
wreck Of the Maine in Havana harbor.
This is that the ship was not blown
up by her boilers. Some contended that
an explosion of the boilers caused the
magazines TO explode in turn. but a
report from the army of engineers shows
that the workmen have uncovered the
tops of the boilers, which are intact.
The engine rooms were found almost
completely filled with mud. The en-
gines are of no use except as junk 1t
is expected that the bones of a number
of bodies will be found in the room,
when the mud is removed.

Crack shots from all parts of the
Palouse country will come to. Pull
man next Monday to participate in
the big turkey shoot which will be
conducted by Pullman gun artists un-
der the leadership of Harry Austin.
Communications have been receiv-
ed from flimrods in Moscow, Colfax,
Palouse, Albion and Genesee stating
that those towns would send dele
cations and asking for information
concerning eligibility, etc. The affair
promises to be the biggest of it's
kind ever pulled off in the Palouse
country and it is expected that at
least one hundred trigger pullers
will be in attendance.
While there will be rifle shoots in
abundance, the trap shooting end of
the program is attracting the most
attention and many bluerocks will
be shattered or sail away safely to
a hiding place on the hill side.
The Pullman Rod and Gun Club,
organized only last week, will turn
out en- masse and will give the Wis

Prospects Bright

That Pullman has an excellent
chance of again winning the high
school football championship of the
county, is now generally agreed. If
the boys can defeat the husky eleven
from Palouse in the game to be
played on Rogers field next Thurs
day, the championship cup will re-
main here for another year. But
that "if' means a whole lot Palouse
has a heavy, fast team which has
made an excellent record this year.
Most of the members are experience
ed players, and they are full of
grit and confidence. On compare
tive scores Pullman has much the
best of it, but comparative scores are
not a safe basis to reckon on in foot
ball games. Pullman will have to
fight hard to win that last game.
