CERTAIN MAINE NOT
BLOWN UP BY BOILERS
Report Of Army Engineers Shows
Workmen Have Uncovered Top
Of oBiIer Which are Intact.

Washington, Oct. 10.-At least one
fact has developed beyond contro-
yersy in Connection with the excava-
ton going on inside the cofferdam en-
closing the wreck Of the Maine in
Havana harbor. That is that the ship
was not blown up by her boilers.
Some have contended that the ex.
p. osion of the boilers caused the mag
s2ines to explode in turn, But a re-
port from the army engineers shows
the workmen have uncovered The tops
OF the boilers which were intact with
one exception. That was in the case
OF the forward boilers which was
not burst but had driven bodily astern
by the blast from the magazines 1t
had gone through heavy bulkhead
and against one Of the after boilers.
Another curious find was an am.
munition case which had been blown
aft from the magazines into the rear
boiler room without exploding the
smokeless powder 1t contained.
The report shows that instead of
being able to float only the after
third of the hull, 1t has been found
possible that more than half of the
ship can be pumped out and floated
out OF the dam. This will greatly re
duce the work of removing the wreck
from the harbor.

grave face:
"P-please, air, il you was in a soft
mud heap up to your neck and | was
TO throw a brick at your head would
