The statement given out is as follows: “February 17, 1898.—The fo o Riggs Ho b. 17. Epecial Dispatch to The Call. : T off i | | | in a ywing is an abstract of a note sent last ening by the an Government to Minis- ter Woc ord at Madrid: “The Spanish Government, on lear: ing of the incident in \ *h Mir de Lome was adv of his obj municati with ments the incident which of the interview with the states that Minister de Lome had pre- sented resignation, d been accepted before the pre tation of the matter by Minister Woodford. That the Spanish Ministry, in accepting the resignation of a functionary whose services they have been utilizing and valuing up to t time leaves it per- fectly well established that they do not spare, and rather, the contrary, disauthorize the criticisms seem- ing to criticize or censure the chief nation, although | executive of a friendly such criticisms had been written within the fleld of friendship, and had reached publicity by artful and criminal means. That this meaning had taken shape in a resolution by the council of Ministers before General Woodford presented the matter, and at a time when the Span- ish Government had only vague tele- graphic reports concerning the senti- ments alluded to. That the Spanish nation with equal and greater reason afirms its views and decision, after reading the words contained in the let- ter reflecting upon the President of the Tnited States. “*As to the paragraph concerning the desirability of negotiations of commer- cial relations, if even for effect. and importance of using a representative for the purpose stated in Senor Dupuy de Lome's letter, the Government ex- pressed concern that in the light of its conduct, long after the writing of the | letter and in view of the unanswerable testimony of simultaneous and subse- quent facts, any doubt should exist that the Spanish Government has given proof of its real desire and of its in- nermost convictions with respect to the new commercial system and the pro- Jected treaty of commerce. “That the Spanish Government does not now consider it necessary to lay stress upon or to demonstrate anew the truth and sincerity of its purpose and the unstained good faith of its in- tentions. That publicly and solemnly | the Government of Spain contracted | before the mother country and its col- onles a responsibility for the political and tarlff changes which it has inaugu- | rated in both Antilles, the natural ends | of which in domestic and international speeches it pursues with firmness, which will ever inspire its conduct.” @O0 00900600000606 0900090009000 000 @ PPPPIPIOCPOPOPPIPOOPOOS SAN FRANCISCO MEN WHO ARE READY FOR WAR Colonel Huber, Formerly of the National Guard, Says He Can Raise a Regiment of Volun- teers in Short Order. The war spirit as a consequence of the wrecking of the battle-ship Maine in the harbor of Havana is high in San Francisco, and will resuit in the rais- ing of a regiment composed almost en- tirely of trained men, within a few hours after war is declared, in case such an event should occur. Colonel Huber, who has been con- | nected with the National Guard of this | State for several years past, at the head of the project, and will probably command the regiment in case a call is made for troops. Within the past few days he has been in consultation with a number of his military frien and all have expressed not only a willing- ness, but an eagerness to place them- selves under his leadership in case their services are needed in defense of the { honor of the stars and stripes. No call will be made unless there is an actual declaration® of war, but enough able-bodied men have been guaranteed Colonel Huber to insure the raising of a full regiment within twen- ty-four hours after it is known that he is ready to proceed. “San Francisco will not be backward | n turnishing men to defend the na- tional honor,” said Colonel Huber las evening, “and I say now, and have said a number of times, that I was ready and willing to go to the front at any time that the call may come. “To my mind San Francisco {s more patriotic than any city in the Union, and thousands would volunteer if hos- tilities were declared.

IMPORTANCE OF THE PRESENT INQUIRY. NEW YORK, Feb. 17.—The Herald's Washington correspondent telegraphs: “Diving operations prevented by rough weather.” This sentence, contained in a cablegram received at the Navy De- partment from Captain C. D. Sigsbee, who commanded the Maine, is inter- preted by officlals to mean that the board of investigation convened by Captain Sigsbee has been unable to proceed with this important feature of its work of determining the cause of the catastrophe. The necessary work of the board of investigation is prelim- inary in character, and the same ground It covers will have to be gone over in accordance with law by a reg- ularly organized court of inquiry. Such a court was formally appointed to-day and will organize at Key West either to-morrow night or Saturday morning, when its judge-advocate arrives. | While the Navy Department has not | been officiaily advised of the investi- gation set under way by Spanish au- thorities in Havana and of the sum- mons served on Captain Sigsbee to ap- pear before the court convened to give his testimony relative to the loss of the Maine, Secretary Long expressed no doubt to-day that the report to this effect is correct. The Secretary said that this action would naturally be taken by the Spanish authorities. Other officials with whom I talked in regard to this matter said that the Spanish Government would undoubt- edly employ a report of such an in- vestigation,if favorable to the accident theory, to rebut any demand for indem- nity which would be made by this Government in case the labors of the board of investigation and the Thomp- son Court of Inquiry should show that external causes were responsible for the disaster. . ——— OLD NAVAL OFFICERS st PATRIOTIS!

In the Event of War With Spain There Wou'd Be No Scarcity of Fighters. Special Dispatch to The Call. Call Office, Riggs House, ‘Washington, Feb. 17. Beyond taking the usual precautions nothing has been done by the War De- partment to put the army in readiness in case of emergency. It Is reported to-night that the Board of Ordnance and Fortifications will continue its ses- sion, which is now in progress at the War Department, to consider addi- tional measures of defense, but this re- port cannot be confirmed. It is under- stood that Acting Secretary Meiklejohn will go to Fort Monroe in a few days to confer with Secretary. Alger. I un- derstand that both the War and Navy departments are being flooded with tel- egrams from officers on the active and retired lists applying for such duty as the departments may desire to give them in case of war. The receipt of the applications have been acknowledged, and the telegrams filed. TOPEKA, Feb. 17.—Governor Leedy says: “If President McKinley decides to declare war against Spain, in twen- ty-four hours we will have the entire militia of the State ready to move at his orders.” SPRINGFIELD, IIl, Feb. 17.—Gov- ernor Tanner to-day called on the Leg- islature to authorize him to tender to the President of the United States the moral and financial suport of Hlinois “to prevent or to punish any attempt at a hostile invasion of our country.” At the conclusion of the reading of his message to the Senate there was a burst of applause from both sides. Fol- lowing is the message: The news of the calamity which has overtaken the United States battle ship Maine and its ill-fated crew fills me with grief and horrer, and 1 assume that the General Assembly will, by joint resolu- tion, express the sympathy of the people of this State for the gailant dead and wounded of our navy and for the surviv- ing relatives. T am unwilling to believe that the loss of the Maine was the result of intentfon, and trust that the officlal investigation ordered by our Government may demon- strate that it was due to accidental cause. In view of the uncertainty which exists as to this point, it would seem that be- fore the Legislature adjourn sine die it should authorize the Executiye, in behalf of the State of Iinols, o tender whatever mordl and financial support may be nec- essary in this emergency to maintain the honor of the American flag and to prevent or punish any attempt at a hostile inva- sion of our common country, JOHN R. TANNER., Governor. SALT LAKE, Feb. 17.—Governor Heber M. Wells said to-night: “The President has made no inquiry of me for troops.” ESTRADA PALMA OF THE CUBAN JUNTA ARRIVES. Believes the Maine Was Annihilated by a Torpedo Placed Under Her Hull. NEW YORK, Feb. 17.—A Tampa (Fla.) special to the Herald says: Es- trada Palma, president of the Cuban Junta, and Dr. Jose Antonio Gonzales Lanuzza, secretary of the Cuban lega- tion in the United States, arrived here to-night from Key West, and will re- main for several days for the purpose of raising funds for the Cuban cause. They were met at Port Tampa by a committee of prominent Cubans and were greeted in this city by several hundred Cubans. It was the intention of the Cubans to have given a grand demonstration in honor of President Palma, but on account of the blowing up of the Maine and the great loss of life the plan was abandoned. Hundreds of Cubans have American and Cuban flags at half-mast, and there is universal grief over the deplor- able accident. President Palma sald: “It was re- ported when I left Key West yesterday to have been an accident, but I can- not understand how such an accident could have occurred on a man-of-war, I hope that a thorough investigation will be made at once and the matter cleared up. “I do not believe that it was an ac- cident and am inclined to belleve that the explosion did not occur on board the vessel, but under her hull. If it proves to have been caused by a tor- pedo placed under the vessel then the relations between the United States and Spain should be at once termin- ated. “What should then be done T do not care to say, but any one knows what would follow. The explosion was not caused by a Cuban, as some have inti- mated. However anxious the Cubans may be for the United States to inter-" fere in the war between Spain and the Cuban republic no Cuban would re- sort to such wholesale destruction of life and property.” President Palma was In Key West and saw men from the Maine landed yesterday morning from the Olivette. The revenue cutters Forward and Mc- Lane were lying at Port Tampa yes- terday when a telegram was received by the commander of the Forward, and both vessels put to sea. It is expected they have orders to proceed to Key West. e ARE VERY FEARFUL. WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.—General | fear is expressed by the old officers at | the Navy Department that the destruc- | tion of the Maine has been so complete, | at least in the forward portion of the | ship where the explosion Is believed to | have occurred, that it would be perhaps | impossible to find sufficient evidence | in the wreck of the hull to be able to declare with certainty the cause of the | disaster. | The reports coming from Havana {and printed this morning, descriptive | of the appearance of the wreck yester- day, strengthen those doubts. The fall of the smokestack, the disappearance AMERICAN VESSEL T0 KEEP WATCH. A Boat Has Been Detailed to Proceed at Once to the Harbor of Havana. WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.—Yesterday Captain Sigsbee suggested to the Navy Department, through the commander at Key West, that it would be well to detail a lighthouse tender or some such craft to watch over the wreck of the Maine. As the upper works are above water in places much valuable property is thus exposed, and the department has of the big turret guns, the overturning of the deck forward, all seem to indi- cate that an enormous dest™ ation has occurred below, acted upon the suggestion and author- ized one of the vessels now at Havana, the Mangrove, to be used for the pur- pose, SUSPICION OF MAINE'S MEN Lieutenant Jenkins Made a Search for Planted Torpedoes. Failed to Find Any Evidence of Mines of Explosives in the Harbor. In Her Sheltered Position at Anchorage the Maine Had Havana at Her Mercy. Spectal Dispatch to The Call. i NEW YORK, Feb. 17.—A correspond- ent of the Herald, who has just re- turned from Havana, said to-day: ““When the Maine entered the harbor of Havana one of the first officers I met was Lieutenant Jenkins, the represen- tative of the bureau of naval intelli- gence, who asked me for information relative to the defenses of the place, which I gladly furnished him. “The point on which Lieutenant Jen- kins was most anxious to secure ac- curate information was whether the harbor had been planted with torpedoes or fixed with submarine mines. The lieutenant made many inquiries on this subject in quarters which I suggested, and when I asked him some days later what had been the result of his in- vestigation, he said: ‘I am under the impression that the harbor has not been plapted with tor- pedoes, but it is impossible to be ab- solutely certain on this point. If any torpedoes exist it is probable that they have been placed in the channel near the entrance of the harbor, where they could be exploded either by contact by electrical connection with one of the forts so as to destrox a ship attempt- ing to force an entrance. “ ‘Situated as the Maineis, sheisabso- lutely sheltered from the fire of all the forts and batteries, and holds the city absolutely at her mercy. It is, of course, possible that the Spanish engi- neers may have taken into considera- tion the contingency of a vessel being able to force her way into the harbor as far up as the man-of-war anchor- age and have planted torpedoes there. I am disposed, however, to think this has not been done. If it has, all we can do is to keep a bright lookout and take our chances. Luckily we don't lie in very deep water, and if we sink we can still work our guns.’ “‘Captain Sigsbee said to me: ‘I have given this question of torpedoes the most careful consideration, and my in- telligence officer, Lieutenant Jenkins, agrees with me that it is improbable that torpedoes are planted in the har- bor or at any rate in our vicinity. There is one thing that gives me confidence. That is this-—the Maine only has five feet of water under her keel, and if a hole is blown in her bottom she can only be down to that extent. That will leave our main deck above water, and with our ten-inch turret guns capable of being ‘pointed in any direction, we can still have Havana at our mercy, and can utterly destroy the city with our ship resting on the bottom.” “When the Maine came in she was In charge of a Spanish pilot, who, if there were any torpedoes or mines placed in the harbor, must unquestionably have been informed with absolute accuracy as to their location. Under charge of this pilot the ship was conducted to buoy No. 4, adjoining the berth occu- pied by the Spanish flagship Alfonso XIII. No particular reason has been advanced for the selection of this buoy, which was not used by the German war ship Stein, which came to Havana be- fore the Maine. The nearest vessel was the Alfonso XIII, which is onlysupplied with bow and stern tubes, which could not be brought to bear against the Maine unless the force of the tide hap- pened to cause the flagship to drift eitherebow or stern on toward the American. The only other Spanish warship in the harbor was a torpedo gunboat lying up the harbor off the arsenal and more than half a mile away. Like the flagship she had no motive power, her boilers being dis- abled and awaiting repair. At the ar- senal wharves lay three or four small torpedo gunboats, but all out of com- mission and undergoing repairs.” STEPHEN M. WHITE VERY CONSERVATIVE. CHICAGO, Feb. 17.—Senator Stephen M. White of California, who passed through the city to-day on his way home, talked freely of the interna- tional difficulty that presents {tself, due to the destruction of the Maine. he does not view the situation with alarm, and does not believe there is any Spanish treachery behind it. “It is foolish to come to any hasty conclusions as to who is responsible for the wrecking of the Maine,” said he. “There is nothing to prove that the Spanish Government was at all con- nected with the affair, and I do not believe that it was. Suppose the explo- sion was the result of a torpedo, it might have been the work of some hot- headed Spaniard, whose act no one was responsible for except himself;" and in that case there would be no cause for war. - “Of course Spain is responsible for the actions of her subjects, and some reparation will be necessary, which, I believe she will be willing to make. Conservatism is the best policy, and this is what the administration will follow. What would be the use of open- ing war? What would be gained by it? There is no use of sacrificing any more lives, for, even if they were Spanish lives, they wouldn't atone for the dead heroes who lost their lives by the ac- cident. “President McKinley has shown too much friendship toward the Spanish for that Government to deliberately plan to destroy one of our ' warships, and it does not appear reasonable for them to have done so. I think an in- vestigation will show Spain had 'no connection with it." “Spain is in no condition toantagonize the United States, and it must realize this. There could only be one result in case of war. Spain has everything to lose and nothing to gain. All things considered it is quite improbable that the Spanish Government was connected with the affair.” Carried Off on. the Ice. COPENHAGEN, Feb. 17.—Advices re- celved from Helsingford say a tract of ice on the coast of the Gulf of Finland broke adrift in a snow storm and was carried ;o sea with 200 fishermen and several orses INNOCENCE. 17.—Lieutenant one of at the KEY WEST, Feb. John J. Blandin of Baltimore, the Maine’s survivors, who is Key West Hotel, to-day gave a suc- cinct account of the disaster, saying that not until now has he been able to recollect the sequence of events in the | awful ten minutes following the ex- plosion Tuesday evening. Lieutenant Blandin was on the Trenton at the time »f the disaster off Samoa in March, 1889, when American and German vessels lost 244 men all told. Lieutenant Blan- din says: “I was on watch, and, when the men | had been piped below, I looked down | the main hatches and over the side of the ship. Everything was absolutely | normal. I walked aft to the quarter- deck, behind the rear turret, as allowed | after 8 o’clock in the evening, and sat down on the port side, where I re- mained for a few minutes. Then for | some reason I cannot explain to myself now I moved to the starboard side and | sat down there. I was feeling a bit| glum, and, in fact, was so quiet that| Lieutenant J. Hood came up and asked laughingly if 1 was asleep. I said: ‘No, I am on watch.’ “Scarcely had I spoken when there | came a dull, sullen roar. Would to| God I could blot out the sound and the | scenes that followed. Then came & sharp explosion, some say NUMErous detonations. I can remember only one. It seemed to me that the sound came from the port side forward. Then cams | a perfect rain of missiles of 2 from huge pieces of cement (o D! of wood, steel railings, fragments of gratings and all the debris that would be detachable in an explosion. “I was struck on the head by a piece of cement and knocked down, but I was not hurt and got to my feet in a mo- ment. Lieutenant Hocd had run to the poop and, I supposed as 1 followed, he was dazed by the shock and about to jump overboard. I hailed him and he answered that he had run te the poop to help lower the boats. “When I got there, though scarce a minute could have elapsed, I had to wade in water to my knees, and almost instantly the quarterdeck was awash. On the poop I found Captain Sigsbee, as cool as if at a ball, and soon all the officers - except Jenkins and Merritt joined us. The poop was above water after the Maine settled to the bottom. Captain Sigsbee ordered the launch and barge lowered, and officers and men, who had by this_time assembled, got the boats out and rescued & number in the wates. “Captain Sigsbee ordered Lieutenant- Commander Wainwright forward to see the extent ot the damage, and if any- thing could be done to rescue those for- ward or to extinguish the flames, which followed close upon the explosion and purned fiercely as long as there was any combustibles above water to feed them. “Lieutenant-Commander Wainwright on his return reported the total and awful character of the calamity, and Captain Sigsbee gave the last sad or- der, ‘Abandon ship,’ to men overs whelmed with grief, indeed, but,calm and apparentiy unexcited. “Meantime four boats from the Span- ish cruiser Alfonso XIII arrived, to be followed soon by two from the Ward liner City of Washington. The two boats lowered from the City of Wash- ington were found to be riddled with flying debris from the Maine and unfit for use. Captain Sigsbee was the last man to leave his vessel and left in his own gig. “T have no theories as to the cause of the explosion. I cannot form any. An examination by divers may tell some- thing to a court of inquiry. ' I with.oth- ers had heard that the Havana harbor was full of torpedoes, but the officers whose duty it was to examine into that reported that they found no signs of any. Personally, I do not believe the Spanish had anything to do with the disaster. Time may tell. I hope so. “We were in a delicate position on the Maine so far as taking any precau- tions were concerned. We were friends in a friendly, or alleged friendly, port, and cotild not fire upon or challenge the approach of any boat boarding us un- less convinced that her intention was hostile. “I wish to heaven I could forget it. 1 have been in two wrecks now, and have had my share. But the reverber- ation of that sullen yet resonant roar, as If the bottom of the sea were groan- ing in torture, will haunt me for a day, and the reflection of that pillar of flames comes to me even when I close my eyes.” 5 The officers of the Maine here are at the hotels or with army and navy friends and the seamen and others have been provided for at the barracks, or have been sent to the crulser New York. A distribution of clothing will be made to them.as soon as possible: The officers can buy all they want here in the way of clothing. Regarding ‘the explosion, the officers ! 1 LIEUTENANT BLANDIN’S NARRATIVE Tells of the Horrors After the Explosion on the Maine. Captain Sigsbee, Cool as Though in a Ballroom, Calmly Di- rected the Rescue of Seamen. of the Maine are reticent. They ara evidently under orders to keep quiet on the subject, but the men talk more freely, and they, including the petty of- ficers of the Maine, are almost unaniy mous in insisting that the explosior was caused by a large torpedo planted | before the Maine arrived at Havana. The naval men here say that would be possible, but not likely. The an- chorage for the Maine was designated by a buoy and the location of the buoy was fixed by the harbor officials. It is added that any of the officials, perfect- ly posted as to the currents and tides, might plant a torpedo at night so that, under certain conditions of tide, it would be under the forward part of the Maine as she swung to her moorings. Once planted, it is further stated, such a torpedo could be exploded from the shore or from a boat at any time fixed upon by those in the secret. All this, however, is regarded as being unlikely to occur and as being almost impossi- ble without the collusion of the Spanish officials. i The anthracite coal here for the sup- ply of the United States warships is being overhauled in a search for infer- nal machines. It is pointed out, how- ever, that the Maine took her coal on board here a week ago and that it is not likely that the mechanism of any infernal machine would delay action so long. IRVING M. SCCTL GUARDED. | Says Any Torveds Would Have Suf- ficient Force to Penetrate the Maine. Irving M. Scott, of the Union Iron Works, in speaking of the disaster, said: “I do not believe that the time has arrived for me to speak intelligently as to the causes of the explosion, for l~ am not sufficiently acquainted with the facts in the case. There is no doubt, however, that if a torpedo was exploded under the ship, the concussion would be be sufficient to cause an explosion in the magazine. This explosion would have blown the hole in the side of the ship. I cannot say as to what caused the eight-inch hole that was found in the vessel. I do not know if any tor- pedoes are made of that size, but any torpedo would have sufficient force to penetrate the side of the Maine. Theor- ies avail nothing, however, and I have no opinion as to what caused the ac- cident.” —— L0SS OF SLEEP LOSS OF SLEEP L0SS OF SLEEP L0SS OF SLEEP L0SS OF SLEEP L0SS OF SLEEP L0SS OF SLEEP L0SS OF SLEEP L0SS OF SLEEP LOSS OF SLEEP HEN A MAN TOSSES IN BED ALL night and is unable to sleep until the wee small hours {n the morning, he finds himselt | getting weaker and weaker daily.
