least one fact has developed beyond
controversy in connection with the
excavation going on inside the Golfer
dam enclosing the wreck of the Maine

ship was not blown up by her boilers.
Some persons have contended that
the explosion of the boilers caused
the magazine to explode in turn. But
report from the army engineers
shows the workmen have uncovered
the tops of the boilers which were in
tact, with one exception. That was
in the case of one of the forward
boilers, which was not burst but
which had been driven bodily astern
by the blast from the magazines.
