Washington, ' Feb. 23. Rumors of
(startling discoveries In the wreck of the
Maine were less frequent, but there
were enough of them still nlloat yester
day to warrant Secretary Lone In
maklnjr this statement to the newspa
per men as he left his olllce: "bum
ming up the situation, I should say that
the navy department knows today
nothing more about the cause of the
disaster than It did five minutes after
the receipt of the first dispatch from
Captain Slgsbee."
The secretary's attention was drawn
to the published statement that Cap
tain Crownlnshield, chief of the bureau
of navigation, had Just arrived at
Tampa, Fla., on the Montgomery from
a trip to Cuba, where he had been in
specting prospective coaling stations
near Matanzas. The secretary's com
ment was simply this: "Captain Crow
nlnshield has not been In Cuba. He
has been off with his boy on matters
not In any wise connected with the
business of the navy."
Until the conclusion of the investiga
tion of the court of inquiry at Havana
the principal business of the navy de
partment In connection with the Maine
will relate to the conduct of the wreck
ing operations. Captain Lemly, the
Judge advocate general, who has this
branch of the work Immediately in
charge, received telecrams from the
Merrltt & Chapman Wrecking com
pany, at New York, stating that the
steamer Merrltt and wrecking lighter
Sharpe had sailed for Havana, and that
the tuc Underwriter, with the chief,
would leave New York tomorrow for
the same place. The assistant wreck
ing master Is going to Havana on the
Ward line steamer tomorrow.
The only exact information recetveu
by the navy department from Havana
during the day was conveyed In Cap
tain Slgsbee's telegram, as follows:
Wrecking tug Itlglit Arm arrived
yesterday. Begins work today, juuen
encumbering metal must be blasted
away in detail. Navy divers down art
seven days, forward four days. Uodles
of Jenkins and Merrltt not rounu. iwo
unidentified bodies of crew found yes
terday. After compartment filled with
detached, broken and buoyant furni
ture and fittings, mud and contusion.
Rnanish authorities continue offers of
assistance and care for wounded and
dead. Everything that goes from the
wreck to the United States should be
disinfected. Wrecking company should
provide for this.
"Surceon o the Maine, aiier con
sulting with others, recommended that
all beddlnc and clothing should be
abandoned. Might go to acclimated
poor. Useless llttings and equipments
might be towed to sea and thrown over
board. Will take all immeaiaie re
sponsibility, but Invite departments
wishes. Shall old metal of superstruc
ture and like be saved? Friends ot ueaa
should understand that we are in the
tropics. Chaplain Chtdwlck charged
ivlth nil matters relative to the dead.
in. rnnrliint Is beyond praise. Don't
know what reports aro being printed,
but the intensely active representatives
of the press here have been very con
siderate of mo and my position."
Spnretarv Long immediately answer
ed Captain Slgsbee, approving all his
recomendations. To the captain's in
milrv as to the Baving ot old metal and
parts'of the superstructure the answer
was given that sucn niaienui wu ui w
use to the bureau of equipment. It
was left to Captain Slgsbee to say
what of this shattered material wuu
worth nreservlng. His statement that
much blasting will be required to clear
away encumbering material inuicaies
that It is essential further to destroy
th unner nortlons of the wrecK in or
dor to get at what 13 more valuable be-
npnth. Contain Blgsuee's statement
that the divers have been down an
seven days and forward four days
cave the navy department the first In
formation of the time' that the divers
had been In the vicinity of the "zone of
explosion," as he has termed it. This
zone Is confined to the forward part of
the shin, nnd while the divers have
been down aft for the last week their
work forward In the vicinity of the
lower magazine has been In progress
only four days.
The statement In the sigsuee aiS'
patch that "friends of the deud should
understand we are in the tropics" la
understood at the navy department to
refer to the urgent pleas of relatives
uf the dead that they be brought to the
United States. These appeals continue
to bo received here, and while they ex
cl'.e the deepest sympathy of oillclals,
no hope can be held out that the dead
can be brought back. One of these ap
peals makes a pitiful plea against the
burying of the dead "by ullen hands
in an alien country."
There are circumstances which, If
they could be made known, would end
such appeals and would show that the
department has not been wanting In a
desire to bring the remains to this
country. These circumstances have
been withheld, mainly through a desire
to save friends and relatives from the
pain which would bo caused by a full
d sclosuro ot the eircct 01 me expio
slon. The press reports have given In
part the terrible mutilation of the
bodies, but it Is feared this has not
been fully realized by friends and rela
tives. The men were sleeping on the
berth deck, with metal Moors and cell
Ings, which, by the force of the ter
rific explosion, were ground together
Into a confused mass. Knowing this
there Is little hope that many of the
oodles still missing will be found, or,
If found, that they will be In a condi
tion to be brought to the United States.
The navy department yesterday gave
out the figures showing the strength of
the naval militia up to date. This
shows u total force of 4,4S otllcers and
enlisted men, which is a gratifying In
crease from the 3,703 by the last report.
Aside from the above, new brigades
are In process of formation, which
promises to swell the total to much
larger figures at an early day. The
organization ot this auxiliary arm of
the naval service Is under the imme
diate direction of Lieutenant Gibbons,
U. S. N., whose energy has accomplish
ed Jnuch In securing state organization
and In the harmonizing of the bodies
Into one compact force, capable In
emergency of co-operating with the
regular navy. In his last report Mr.
Roosevelt said that the state naval
militia, In the event of a sudden emer
gency, could be utilized at once for
manning the smaller national cruisers.
The appropriation of $50,000 made by
congress to aid the work of the naval
militia will bo apportioned among the
states in a few days.
Thanks to the promptness and eill
clency ot the chief of engineers and
the chief of ordnance of the army, the
city of Washington Is now regarded
as being well nigh safe and secure
from attack by water. The fortifica
tions at Fort Washington and Sheridan
Point, on the opposite side of the Po
tomac, ate sulllclently advanced to be
able to repel an ordinary lleet of In
vaders, and In case of necessity they
could be vastly strengthened In a
comparatively short time. These de
fenses are considered sufficient to keep
all hostile vessels beyond the range of
gunshot of the national capital.
Moreover, the river has been blocked
off and prepared for mines and torpe
does at a point below the fortllicatlons
already mentioned, so that It is prob
able some of the ships of an enemy
would be blown out of the water before
It would be necessary to use the guns
at the forts.
Late last night the navy department
received two brief telegrams from Cap
tain Slgsbee. One related to some rout
ine matter of expenditures In connec
tion with the work on the Maine and
the other Is as follows: "Divers re
port more bodies In tiffi wreck, some In
hammocks, Involved In debris. Prob
ably not recognizable."
This dispatch indicates that the
divers have finally secured at least a
partial entrance to the quarters In the
forward part of the vessel, where the
crew were asleep when the explosion
occurred, nnd under which were the
magazines. The fact that the divers
were unable to extricate the bodies
shows the fearful obstacles acralnst
which they are laboring, and bears out
tne belief that the work of submarine
investigation will necessarily proceed
slowly.
TIIK COURT OF INQUIRY.
Witnesses Still Korlilililon to Rofer to
Tholr Testimony.
Havana, Feb. 25. The court of in
quiry held Its usual sessions yesterdav.
uaptain Sampson reports that Chap
lain Chldwlck was examined as to his
personal experiences at the time of
the disaster to the Maine, and that the
testimony was taken of the captain of
a uritisn bark In the harbor and the
superintendent of the West Indian Oil
works, across the bay at Regla, both
of whom witnessed the explosion. Mr.
Rolf, the British engineer of the floating
dock In the harbor, wrote a letter to the
court, but. It Is said, did not add any.
thing material to what was known.
At the afternoon session the divers
were examined more fully than before.
Their testimony Is taken from day to
day. The court expects to sail today
on the Mangrove for Key West, where
the other olllcers and men will be ex
amlned.
The wrecking tug Right Arm did not
go north, as was expected yesterday,
She Is now moored beside the poop of
tne wreck, and will salve the smaller
portions, as far as possible, In advance
of the arrival of other tugs with bet
tor facilities for heavy work. The
hoisting apparatus must bo capable of
raising scores of tons In tho effective
work to be accomplished.
Chaplain Chldwlck reports that all
the-wounded here are doing well except
Frederick C. Holzer, of New York, who
may die at any moment.
Neither the olllcers of the court of
inquby nor the witnesses will give the
slightest Indication of tho testimony
or the conclusions deduclblo from It,
and all say that the men employed on
the wreck have been wanied to oh
serve an equally strict reticence. This
course Is regarded ns eminently wise
by the American and all Intelligent
Spanish oillclals, as there Is no telling
what pnsslons might be aroused or
what evil results might be brought
about by tnlklng freely on olllclal mat
ters In the present state ot public feel
lng In Havana, Thus far Americans
are treated with the utmost courtesy
and kindness, and It seems the special
care of the residents of Havana to
show friendliness.
Consul General Lee says there Is no
truth In the report that he had asked
Captain General Illanco to dismiss
from Cuba certain newspaper men for
tending sensational stories to the Uni
ted States, On the contrary. General
Lee has never Interfered wJth tho
American newspaper men In any way
General Solano, the second chief of
taff, yesterday returned on board the
Mangrove the visit of the court of In
qulry, acting as tho representative of
the governor general. Admiral Manto-
rola personally returned the visit paid
to him by the court. The Thursday re
ceptions of General Ulanco were re
Bunicd last evening.
Aotlvlty at Fort Mol'lim-non.
Atlanta, Feb. 25, Activity has never
been so great at Fort McPherson as at
tho present time. The stir Is attributed
to General Merrltt's arrival, Kvery-
thlng Is In readiness to move the reel
pient wlthlnvu few hours to any point
that may be designated. At a consul
tatlon between Colonel Cook, com
mandant of tho fort, and railroad or
flclals, Colonel Cook was assured that
the men could bo transported to Flor
Ida within a night. The munitions of
war havo been greatly Increased dur
ing the last few days. General Mer
rltt was seen last night and asked if
his arrival In the city wan an Indication
of Immediate action on the part of the
regiment. "No," said he, ' it is a part
ot my duty to Inspect each post In my
division every year, and I have come
here merely as a part of my routine
rorlt It Is not a warlike movo at all."

FIHE OUT !
Work at the Glrard Colliery, Mt. Car-
rael, Successful.
GRIFFITHS' REMAINS WERE FOUND
Tbe Fire Boss Was Evidently Smothered
by Black Damp While He Was Rest
ingFour of Five Mules Met
a Similar Fate.
Mt. Carmel, Feb. 25. The fire in the
(.11 raid colliery lias been extinguished and
the body of Jilm tlriHitlis, the lire boss, re
covered. Theso satisfactory results wore
attained at about four o'clock yesterday
afternoon.
GriHitlis' body was found on tlio gangwav
ibout four hundred feet east of the slope.
I'lio deceased's safety lamp was found beside
tho body, locked. Ills cud was ovidently a
peaceful one and was caused by suffocation
due to smoko precipitated into black damp.
I lie body was lying upon its back on a nlank
with tho arms crossed over the chest. Tlio
hody was very much like that of a person
asleep.
Tliero is a belief that Griffiths made his
way to the place whero lie was found and,
becoming exhausted, decided to take a rest
leforu trying to reach and cross tlio bottom
of the slopo to get to tho traveling way on
the west side and then reach tlio surface.
The point at which lie stopped was
opposite the stable, lie evidently went
nto the stable, procured a nlank and
made a resting place on tho gang
way close to the ditch. Tliero were live
mules in the stable. Four were smothcreil
to death. The stable is on a pitch and the
fifth mule was at the highest point, which
accounted for its escapo from death. Its
winnowing was heard as the rescuing nartv
approached tho stable in search of Griffiths'
body. After removing the body of tlio fire
boss some of tho men returaed and cavo feed
and water to tho almost famished mulo.
The animal could not to removed from the
mine on uccount of tho sIopovbeiug blocked
with debris of the fire. v
Experts declared last night that tho fire
was completely extinguished anil a gang of
men was put to work at once to clear away
the debris and put now timbers iu the place
of those that wcro burned. This work will
tako about four days audit is believed the
colliery will bo put in operation again next
Tuesday or Wednesday.

P. & R. CHANGES.
A Nell' Sthriliili, to go Into Kllect on tho
Lount Itnilxil.
Following close after the Lehigh Valley
and Pennsylvania lEailrosd changes in time
of trains, comes the announcement that a
new time table will go into ell'ect on the
P. & It. lotllway on Sunday next and somo
of the changes made will better tbe train
seivlio considerably.
It is stated that the train now leaving
Shenandoah at T:05 a. in. is to lie changed to
7:30, making closer connections at Mabauoy
liano for l'lilladolpliia and Pottsvillo, arriv
ing at tho latter place about S:Q0 a. in. The
train which now arrives at Shenandoah at
11:47 a. m. and which leaves Philadelphia at
4:30 a. in. will, under the new arrangement,
leave Philadelphia at 3:30 a. in. and arrive iu
Shenandoah about 8:10 a. in. As this train
carries mail and express matter an earlier
delivery of botli may be expected.
Tlio 11:30 p. m. train from Philadelphia for
l'ottsviHe, SlioimudoHli and WilliHinsport,
will leave at 12 o'clock, midnight, and tlio
running time will be quickened so that the
train will ariivo hero at tho same time as at
present.
Undur the new arrangement a good con
nection for Mt. Carmel and Sbamokin will be
made by tho train which is to leave at 7:30 a.
Jhls will meet a long lelt want for an
eailicr train to theso points, as uudor present
arrangements the earliest train for the points
named is 10:53 a. m. and as the Cannon
Ball" makes a clo-e connection on tho return
trip it looks as if the P. & 1!. pooplo were
planning to capture the Mt. Carmel and
Sbamokin travel.
There is also somo talk of restoring the
Sunday passengor trains on tlio Shenandoah
branch which was discontinued in 1801, as
tlio trains running on the main
lino now arc much nioio numerous
and c onvenient than they were at that time,
having good connections to Pottsville and
points south as woll as to Sbamokin, Sunbury
uid W illianisport. whether this idea will
be carried out or not is, it is stated, not yet
decided, but it is evident that tho pioneer
line to town is, waking up in an endeavor to
win lack business lost to its competitors some
timo ago.
