PIPE BREAKS ON
MAINE; WATER
FILLS HER HOLD
Special by United Press Wire.

Special bD United Press Wire.
New York, March 6:-Breaking of
a pipe in her engine room filled the
engine hold of the battleship Maine
with water as she lay in Whitney
Basin at the Brooklyn navy yard to-
day One thousand bluejackets were
aboard the Maine when the pipe
broke. Within half an hour the
fighting vessel tilted to port slightly
and settled down a number of feet,
according to Lieutenant Hutchinson,
aide to the commandant.
The Maine has been in use at the
navy yard as a receiving ship for sew
eral weeks. She was lying close to
her dock when the accident occurred.
Naval officials said the accident was
not at all serious and that loss of
life under the circumstances would
have been out of the question. New
ertheless they were puzzled over the
break Lieutenant Louis G. Richard
son was appointed to direct an imme-
diate investigation. The Maine was
rebuilt to replace her famous name
sake, whose destruction brought on
the SpanishAmerican war. She was
completed in July, 1901, and was one
of the first big ships built at that
time. Her length over all is 396 feet
and her displacement 1880 tons.

Der of ballots cast at the last elec-
ton, says there were 4,501 who vot

necessary to call the special election

Washington, March 6:--With the
Mexican situation threatening at
any moment to split into wide open
anarchy and massacre, General Car
rama today was addressed in the
sharpest representation ever sent by

tain. Under foreign government de-
mands for protection in Mexico, the

which officials hoped would bring
the constitutionalist chief to terms.
Carranza was told that the starva-

relieved. 1t was pointed out that
in controlling the Vera Cruz-Mexico
City railroad, he has power to alter
conditions.
Don't Approve of Obregon.
He was also warned that this ma
