Washington.-Three short messages
were sent to Congress by the Presi.
dent, one urging further appropria-
tion to complete the work of raising
the wreck of the battleship Maine, a
second asking Congress to determine
whether the wrecks Of the Spanish
vessels sunk by tho American navy
shall be given away and the third
transmitting reports of engineers of
surveys on the Great Lakes.
President Taft referred to Chief En-.
gineer Bixby's estimate Of $25O,OOO for
completing the work Of raising the
Maine and to Secretary of War Stim.
sons subsequent inspection and re-.
port. He declared the United States
would be derelict in Its duty II 1t did
not provide ample money to finish
this task. The President added:
II concur fully in the conclusions
which the secretary Of war has
reached and In the recommendation
which he makes In respect Of an addl-
tional appropriation for this work in
order that nothing may remain un-
done to enable the world to know the
original cause of the explosion OF the
Maine."
The message, regarding the Spanish
vessels sunk off Santiago, said the
Norwegian company asked Cuba's per.
mission to raise the wreck on a ten
per cent salvage basis. The President
submitted an opinion Of Secretary of
State Kncx, who held:
"The Department Of State Is in.
cllned to the view that tho Spanish
ships destroyed by the United States
forces in war on what was then Span
lsh territory, became the property OF
the victors and passed with Spain's
rclinquishmcnt Of Cuba into the abso.

might be satisfied.
When the resolution was laid on
his desk, he looked up at the crowd
around him and said:
"Has anybody read this?"
Nobody answered and to make GER
tain Of 1t the President read the reso.
luton himself.
"Well, gentlemen. It's DONE" he
said, as he put the lact stroke on the
parchment.
The resolution signed by the Presi.

This was the word received to-
day direct from Detective Will
liam ]. Burns, who is in Indiana
polls for the federal grand jury
probe. He declared the Indiana
polls evidence will be turned over
to him, and that he will bring it
here in person.
Attorneys barrow and Davis,
of the Mcnamara defense, are
bitterly disappointed and an
nounce their intention of fighting
any attempt by the. state to in
troduce the Indianapolis evidence
at the present trial. They add
that, if the use of this evidence is
allowed, it will be because Judge
