EXPOSING RUINS Of
BAT TTLESHIP
MAINE
Expected Weeks Must EIapSe
Before Water Is Pumped
From Golfer Dam Surround
ing III Fated War Vessel,
(By Morning journal Special Leased wirsl


Havana. June 5.--The preliminary
stage in the work of exposing the
wreck of the old battleship Maine was
completed this afternoon, when re-
pairs to the caisson. ruptured two
weeks ago were finished by the drlv-
ing of the last interlocking piles. I'm
medately the work of pumping out
the water from the main Golfer dam
was begun and the water level had
been lowered two feet when work was
suspended.
At this stage of the operation, no
Indications have been observed of any
instability in the retaining walls The
pumping will be resumed tomorrow
and 1t Is expected the water level in
the Golfer dam will be lowered about
five feet.
This will suffice TO expose most Of
the afterdeck, which was remote from
the immediate effects OF the explosion.
After considerable water has been
removed the pumping operations
probably will be suspended for ten
days, so that the most careful tests
of the stability of the retaining walls
may be made before the entire wreck
Is freed from the water.
Present indications are that some
weeks must elapse before IA complete
examination is possible The lowering
of the water level this afternoon
merely gets clearer view of the
afterdeck than has been possible here
tofore showing it to be encumbered
with barnacles and other marine
growth.
The most important feature of the
removal of the water so far Is the
strong indication that the main Golfer
dam Will fulfill all expectations OF
the army engineers by resisting the
tremendous water pressure from the
outside
