NINE EXPLODED MAGAZINE
Verdict OF the Naval Experts vrnn-
Understandings Of the sampson
Board Confirmed In General--A
Low Form OF Explosive Used.

Washington That the primary
cause Of the destruction of the United
States battleship Maine in Havana
harbor was the explosion of d sub
marine mine or some similar contriv-
ance is the verdict OF the yreeland
board Of United States naval experts,
who have examined the exposed
wreck
The board is unanimously of the
opinion. that an explosion external to
the ship caused the explosion of the
vessels magazines. This conclusion
was reached after two weeks spent in
Havana examining the wreck. Their
report confirms In general the findings
Of the Sampson board, which investi-
gated the disaster in 1893 The Wee
land board were able to examine every
detail of the wreck for the first time
exposed to view by the dewaterfng Of
the cofferdam.
Findings OF Board.
For the present Secretary Meyer
limited official statements regarding
the Vreeland report to the following
brief summary:
The board finds that the injuries to
the bottom of the Maine were caused
by the explosion of a charge of a low
form of explosive exterior to the ship
between frames % and 81, strake B,
port side. This resulted in igniting
and exploding the contents of the six
inch reserve magazine, the contents
including large, quantity of black
powder The more or less complete
explosion of the contents of the re-
naming forward magazine followed.
The magazine explosions resulted in
the destruction of the vessel
The most striking difference be-
tween the finding of the Vreeland
board and that of the Sampson board,
as far as comparison of the two is pos
sible, with only the brief summary
made public, is in regard to the sup
posed position Of the mine. The
Sampson board fixed the position of
the mine at about frame 18. The
Vreeland board puts it between frames
% and 81, a position very considerably
forward of that estimated by the
Sampson board. Both boards agreed
in the opinion that the mine exploded
on the port side
What-zModels Show.
The board brought back with them
models showing the Maine as con-
