Tho number killed in the destruction of the United States cruiser Mainu i) now estimated to be four hundred and seventeen. Tbero arc many rumors afloat about tho destruction of tho battleship, but little defiuito information can as yet bo ascertained. The ship is a total wreck. The Malno's cook, James Rowan, ono of the rescued, says : "I cannot tell how things happened. We wero all asleep nt tho time. The others rescued with mo were Daniel Cronln, Charles Berryman, Albert John and a man named Blooner." Washington, Feby. 10, 3 p. in. The latest telegrams from Captain Sigsbeo, of the de stroyed cruiser Maine, says two hundred and thirty-six men uud two officers wore lost. Another dispatch from Captain Slgsbee ays the oflleers are saved and uninjured. Minister Lee cabled at noon to-day the fol lowing: "All is quiet here and the authori ties express great sorrow. I am not yet pre pared to report tho cause of the accident." Havana, Feb. 16. At a quarter before 10 o'clock last evening a terrible ex plosion took place on board the United States cruiser Maine, In Havana har bor. Many were killed or wounded. All the boats of the Spanish cruiser Al fonso XIII are assisting. As yet the cause of the explosion Is not apparent. The wounded sailors of the Maine nre unable to explain It. It Is believed that the cruiser Is totally destroyed. The explosion shook the whole city. The windows were broken In all the houses. A press correspondent has conversed with several of the wounded sailors and understands from them that the explosion took place while they were asleep, so that they can give no par ticulars us to the cause. The wildest consternation prevails In Havana. The wharves are crowded with thousands of people. It Is be lieved that the explosion occurred In a small powder magazine. Captain Slgsbee nnd the oUisr offlcors have been saved. It Is estimated that over a hundred of the crew were killed, but It Is Impossible as yet to give the exact dotalls. Admiral Manterola has ordered that boats of all kinds should go to the as sistance of tho Maine and her wound ed. The Havana firemen are giving aid, tending carefully to the wounded as they ore brought on shore. It Is a ter rible sight. General Solano and the other genernls have boon ordered by Captain General Blanco to take steps to help the Maine's crew In every way possible. Captain Slgsbee says that the ex plosion occurred in tho bow of the ves sel. He received a wound in the head. Orders were given to the other oflleers to save themselves as best they could. The latter, who were literally thrown from their bunks In their night cloth ing, gave the necessary orders with great self possession and bravery. The first theory was that there had been a preliminary explosion in the Santa Barbara (magazine) with powder or dynamite below water. The Maine was a battleshipof the sec ond class, and was regarded as one of the best ships in the new navy. She was built at the Brooklyn navy yard, and Is 318 feet long, G7 feet broad, 21.6 feet mean draught and G.682 tons displace ment. She has two ten Inch vertical turrets and two military masts, and her motive power is furnished by twin screw vertical trlplo expansion engines, having a maximum horse power of 9,- 293, capable of making a speed of 17.45 knots. She carries four ten Inch nnd six six Inch breech loading guns In her main battery and seven six pounders and eight one pound rnpld lire guns and four Gatllngs In her secondary bat tery, and four Whitehead torpedoes, The Maine cost J2.DSS.000.

At midnight the secretary of the nnvy received tlie following telegrnm from Cnptnlu Slgs bee: "Maine blown up In Havana, harbor at 9.40, and destroyed. Many are wounded and dmibtletm more killed and drowned. The wounded und others are on board the Spanish man-of-war Al fonBO XIII und Ward line steamer.

Many Spanish ofllrers, Including the representative of General Blanco, are now with me and express sympathy." The oflleers ref cried to In tho above dispatch are Lieutenant Friend W. Jenkins nnd Assistant Engineer Dar win R. Merrltt. From the wording of the dispatch the navy department thinks It possible that they were ashore at the time of the ac cident. The secretary of tlo nnvy received another dispatch front iCey West at the same time with the above, but Its con tents were not made public. The orders for tho lighthouse tenders were at once sent to Key West In plain language, thus avoiding the delay that would have arisen from the use of cipher. Paymaster Charles W.

EliEGTIOfl RESIMS, Democrats Carry Three of Local Wards. the Five REESE LOST A CLOSE FIGHT I The Control of the Borough Council fasses Out of the Hands of the Citizens farty-Increasod Democratic Majority on the school Board, The political battle is over and tho peoplo will now he rclloved of tho importunities of candidates and their fiicnds for a few months, until tho timo draws near for tho primaries at which tho delegates to tho fall couTentiuus are to he elected. The result of yesterday's election in town was a victory for the Democrats. They secure a majority iu tho Borough Comic?, and increase their majority on tho School Hoard, so that any who hold public oiliec and do not oast m tue smiles of the powers that bo may prepare to make room for the favored onrs, of which there arc many. There are ap plications fur appointments as school teachers 'y the score aud enough aspirants for tho blue uniforms with brats buttons to given town twice tho size or Shenandoah ample protection. Tlio Bcpubllcans (Beg pardon, Citizens) havo but oue consolation. Tho onslaught on tho Second and Third wards failed aud tho Democrats did not swallow everything iu sight. So far as the beiough ticket is concerned tho Democratic victory was complete, Michael Byrne, Auditor, and T.J. Mullahey, Treasurer, being elected by good majorities. Tlie most interesting fight of the election was that in tho Third waid, where the Demo ciats combined with some dissatisfied Bo publicans nnd mado a desperate light to defeat D. It. James, the Itepublican candi date for the thiee year term In Council. It was a bitter contest and Mr. James came out victorious, although by a gieatly reduced majority. Tho vote polled In tlio ward was very light. In fact this was the case iu nearly all the wards, especially on the Ite publican side. A comparison of the Third ward vote shows that Mr. James was cut 20 votes. It also shows that Mr. Holroy was cut 22 votes, and 13 people failed to vote for either candidate for tho oue yoar term on the School Board. Tho Democrats strained every effort to elect Dr. 1). J. Langtou to tlio three year term on Ceuncil, and to accomplish it traded William Hialccki, their Polish candidate for the one year term on Council, right aud left. In the Fourth the returns show that Joseph W. Bell, tho- Democratic candidate for Council, was cut a number of votes to tho ailvautage of Patrick Conneis, their candi date for the School Board, who finished his fight close behind Mullahey, the candidate for Treasurer. Arthur Whomslev. the I!.. publican candidate for Council, got many of tlie votes diverted by tho cutting of Boll, hut was still beaten by a good margin. The ma jority is a reduced one, however. There was also considerable cutting in favor of William l'atterson, the liepublican caudidato for As sessor. Ten rotes would have changed tho result on the Couiicilmanic fight in the Fifth ward. U. I), heese, the Itepublican caudidato for re-election to Council, was defeated by but 10 votos. This was tlie closest contest of the campaign and Mr. Iteeso cnn tike prido in tlie vote be received, notwithstanding his defeat.
