CONGRESSMEN RETICENT.
It ut I'ow Will Kinross an Opinion
I'pon tlio Loss ol tho SI ul iu',
Washington, Feb. 16. Senators nnd
representatives weie Inclined to tetlc
ence pending positive knowledge of tho
cause. Chairman Illtt, of tho fotelgn
affairs committee, and Chairman Ding
ley, of the ways and means commit
tee, would nay nothing. Senator Piatt,
of Connecticut, believes It was an ac
cident, nnd so doe.s Senator Hale, chair
man of tho naval committee. Many
other members of congress wore con
tent to simply snv Hint opinion should
be suspended until after the Investiga
tion. Ex-Senator Butler thinks u bold
man could havo gone aboard the Maine
and placed a gieiindowlth a slow mntch
whote it would i-M'lode tlio magalne.
Tlio Maine Incident lormed the piln
r!Ml topic of lonsldei.itlo.i by the sen

It meeting today, although not otllc

to the effect that the ocelli lenre Is one

to demand Mich explanation.
"It Is tin sci Ions to talk about tit

i'timtcn C'llloin said. "I am too mad
1 i talk ilium- it 1 can't see how Hie
iM'lo'lou could have been the tosult of
an incident and I think the time Is
lapldly nppioaching when this coun

Inasmuch ns suspicion exists in foitip
ciuuite'.s that a torpedo was used
ngaiiut the Maine, It may lie said that
the mnjoilty of naval ofrlceis hellevo
that the chntacter of the explosion was
baldly such as could be attilbutrd to a
torpedo. The latter, dinged with
about 100 pounds of gunpowder or gun
cotton, It is believed, would have totn
n Ian;p hole In the bottom or ldu of
the Maine, but was scarcely likely to
the the lnns'izin", which is not near
the bottom.
It was said nt the navy ileum tment

excitement at Havana.
A Spinlt.ii ntTMnl of long residence
at Havana stated that the hour of tho
accident was tl.e one when excitement
at Havana was at Its height. Up to
midnight the thcatets, cafes and club
niv ciowded and strangeis Hut their
Kieatest Intel est in seeing the city at
Hint time For this leason, he said, It
was the time when naval oflloeis usu
ally actiicd thiiir shoie leaie, the
leave i mining fiom S to V2 o'clock.
This he thought would account for the
tili&enre of some of the olllcers fiom the
Maine and the consequent small death'
list nmong the ollkeis. At the same
tlmo Hip leave to the sailors was usu
ally "in trilled for the leason that tho

that In his opinion It would bo pos
sible) for spontaneous combustion to
liavo caused the explosion In tho mag
azine of the battleship Maine. Mr.
Nixon thlnka tho explosion may pos
sibly have occurred In a magazine In
close prozlmlty to a coal bunker.
Boston, Feb. 10 Rear Admlial
aeorgo E. Belknap, U. fl. N retired,
eald todny that he wits Inclined to
think that the Mnlne wan blown up
by n torpedo.
"I do not see," he said, "how an ex
plosion of the forward magazine, could
have occuned. The keys of tha mag
azines nre always kept In the custody
of the captain, All the ammunition Is
carefully ensed, and their explosion by
themselves Is next to Impossible. If.
n the dispatches state, the whole bow
of the ship was blown off, It Is appar
ent that the explosion could not havo
been caused by the bollew or by the
bow getting heated. I do not see how
It could have occurred from the paint
loom, as every precaution Is taken to
pi event tho collection of explosive
gases In the pnlnt room, and If such
an explosion occuned It would have
been moi e likely to have caused a lite
than to destioy the ship"
DOOS' CARESSES CAUSED DEATH.
M Oman Whoso Hands Tlmy Licked
Died ol Hidiopluibiii.
New York, Feb. 1C It appears from
the history of Ellen Calsou, the 10-year-old
Swedish girl who died In
Hooovelt hospital on Monday, that a
pel son may become Infected with hy
drophobia without being bitten by a
dog The autopsy upon the girl's body,
mnde yesteiday under tho direction ot
Coionei's Plivslelun Hamilton Wil
liams, levealed the fact that her dentil
wus caused by hvdrophobla, although,
so fni as can be learned, no dog ever
lilt hel.
The gill was emploved as a sen ant
bv a family at Congeis, N V. She was
hi ought to the hospltul on Sunday af
ternoon, apparently suffeilng with n.
violent attack of tables, and It was at
llrst supposed that the hud been bit
ten by a dog. She seemed to be sti ang
ling and suffocating, and had tho hal
lucinations usual In such cases When
water was given her, however, she
dinnk It eageily and without dltllculty
and expressed a wish for moie. Her
death was atti United to hydiophobia
by the hospital physicians.
In oidcr to confirm the diagnosis of
h.vdrophobla the autopsy was held. So
far as an examination of this iiatuic
could detcimlne, the diagnosis was col
lect, but pait.s of the Intestines were
pieseived and will be submitted to ml
crocopleal examination.
The hlstoiy of the girl's case was
gone into most carefully, and It was
learned that In the house wheie she
was employed there were three largo
Newfoundland dogs of which she was
veiy fond. One of the dogs died on
Nov 20, a second on Nov. SO, and the
thlid on Jan. 20. The veteiinary who
attended them found no tiace of rabies
In nny of them, nnd j.et to them Is
traced the fatnl malady of the girl.
The presumption Is that the germs
weie communicated to her bv the dogs
licking her hands, which were badly
chapped.
