Havana, Aug. 3l,-5The work on the
wreck of the Maine Rus not yet
gone beyond the experimental stage.
If one studies closely the different
tacks being taken TO carry out the
plan of the cofferdam and to raise
the wreck or that part of II which
was not damaged by the explosion.
While the general plan of building
n cofferdam around the wreck and
pumping out the water and mud has
been generally followed. the minor
details, such as making the Golfer
dam tight and strong. and able to
withstand the outside pressure of the
water have proven greater than the
average person will imagine.
In the first place. many OF the cir
cular caissons forming the cofiar-
dams were very badly driven. one
gave way entirely before pumping
was started. These steel slabs Of
piing are 75 feet long. The water
about the wreck Is about 35 feet deep.

ORGAN GRINDER RICH
FAMOUS MONKEY JOHN" DIES
AND LEAVES FORTUNE
John Zignego, Energetic Italian, In
His Years of Wandering Across
American Continent Amass-
es Great Wealth.

ST. Paul, Minn.-An estate valued al
more than 100000. resulting from the
wanderings of an energetic Italian
across the American continent with a
hand organ and monkey, is in the
Hennepin county probate court, to be
divided between charity and well-to-do
relatives, according to a will deposited
with the court many years ago for safe
keeping.
The property is that of John Zig
nego, who died November 10 at 1904
Fourteenth avenue, at the home of Jo-
seph Zignego, nephew. The dead
man was known to thousands of peo-
pie only as Monkey John" He talked
little Of himself, and few knew that
he was in better than easy circum-
stances.
Two aged sisters, who live in a
small italian village, will get the bulk
OF the estate. These sisters have al
ways refused to leave their native
home. The Minneapolis nephew and
his two daughters are also remem-
bered In the will.
For 40 years Zignego carried his es-
tate with him. Many years ago he set
tied IN Red Wing, where he has
brother. From Red Wing, with his or
gan and monkey he used to start his
travels through the northwest.
About twelve years ago his health
began to fail and he took up his resi-
dence with his Minneapolis nephew.
He gave up the management of his
own affairs in 1904, and the will previ.
ously made was turned over to the
court for safe keeping.
