WILL REMAIN A SECRET.
People Will Never Know Cause Of De-
struction Of Maine.

Tampa, Fla. June 2S-"The secret
of the destruction of the battleship
Maine will never be known" said Gen.
W. n. Bixby chief of engineers In
charge of the work Of raising the
Maine, on his arrival here from Hava-
ma. The destruction to the vessel was
such. says Gen. Bixby. and the de-
terloration has been so great that II
will be impossible to tell whether the
ship was blown up from force within
or without. The greatest force. how
ever. was due from the inside. indicat-
ing that the forward magazine had
exploded. Whether this was from
sympathetic explosion, caused by a
torpedo from the outside, may forever
remain n mystery.
General Bixby says that unless the
fragment of a torpedo is found there
is no way of connecting some out
side agency with the blowing up OF
the vessel
1--WE do not expect to find any hu-
man remains" General Bixby said.
The crews compartments have dis
appeared entirely"

livered speech on reciprocity and Of
fered important amendments to its

only two important things: Admit
free Of duty the agricultural products

ber of senators who seem to sit i'm si-
lent, if not sullen submission to
higher power"
Canada has yieldel all she can" he
said. without endangering her indus

bic that those who are willing To sub
ject the farmer to absolute free trade
In the things he produces should
shrink from a reduction of the duties
on things he buys"
Senator Cummins said his amend

pose of defeating the bill.

IN duties To help me with these
