LOXQ. Ing an Investigation into the cause of the disaster to the Maine. The matter was discussed at considerable length and the conclusion reached, and Gener al Lee will be so notified that while this envprnmpnt la willing to afford the RnAnlah authorities reasonable facill ties for conducting, an inevstlgation, yet it Is thought best the first inquiry shall be made by our own commission- em. The reauest of the Spanlsn au thorities, therefore, will be respectfully declined. Excitement la Abating. The excitement of the past few days has mostly disappeared at the navy de partment. The first flispatcn or me inv that came to hand relative to the disaster was one from Admiral Slcard, iAtd at Kev West, speaking of the as mhiinir nt the court of lnauiry. ine miAM was as follows: "Secretary of the Navy: FacKei sailed from Key West for Havana with the divers and stores for the Maine. Tha Iowa comes to Key West on the 19th, and the Sampson court of Inquiry on the Maine assembles on the arrival here of Marlx. The Massachusetts and Indiana at Tortugas.

Judge- Advocate of tha Court. Marlx referred to by Admiral Slcard Is Lieutenant Commander Manx, now hia wav from Washington to Key West, who. with Captain Sampson, Cap tain Chadwlck and Lieutenant torn mandtr Potter, will constitute the court of Inquiry. Lieutenant Commander Marlx will be the Judge advocate cf the .mirt and lay down the line of proceed bainc somewhat of an expert In that matter. It Is believed at the navy department that he cannot reach Key xvmt arly saturaay irom .ampa, h Ing to the lack of a regular boat, but It Is thought that he will be In time to conduct the Investigation when It opens on Msnday. While the court Is entirely master of Its own proceedings, the de mrtmtnt does not doubt that after a few preliminary sessions In Key .West, wMh will lay. tne rounuauon ior xur- thr Investigation through ths taking f tha testimony of the survivors sow at Key West, the board will proceed to Havana. , toCU Ctaaktta.

He has pointed out that their condition is not such as to permit re movals: that embalming is only imper fectly done In Havana, and that Identi fication of the bodies In many cases is not possible. He has telegraphed that the bodies of two, Officers Merrit an? Jenkins, could not be found, and has again repeated that it would be Im practicable to remove bodies. Some of the surgical officers here say that they know by experience that Captain Slgs- bee's conclusion is sound and they say that successful embalming is not possi ble where the circulatory system of the body has 1een destroyed as in the case of the mangled victims of the Maine. VI i:V9 OF MAINE'S WRECK. Photograph Are Displayed at Key West by an () ttlcer. Key West, Fla., Feb. 21. Public in terest in the destruction of the Malm at Havana continues the all-absorbing topic of discussion in this city. An offi cer of the mall steamer Arkansas trom Havana displayed four large photo graphs, taken from different points of view, each admirably showing ths wrecked battleship In all its hideous ness. The gnarled and twisted iron beams, the heavy steel plates, bent like Jrces of carboard, together with the chaotic condition of the massive tur rets and other heavy iron work, make an mpretslve structure. The forward part of the ship, where the shock of the explosion had first lift ed the bow out of the water, then thrown it back as if to break the vessel In two, and then dropped each side Into the water, a wrecked mass, was repro duced by the photograph In all its hor rors. These photographs fully confirm the description given of the explosions by the survivors who are now betng care 3 for by the authorities in this city. These photograps will prove of material as&Jj-tance to the board of inquiry dur ing its investigation. STOIIY OF CAPTAIN BIGSUEE. He Telia ot the Wreck of the Maine aud Ills Herniation. . Havana, Feb. 21. Captain C. D. SIgs bee of the battleship Maine in an Inter view with the correspondent of the As sociated Press described in detail the explosion which destroyed the great ship. "On the night of the explosion," said Captain Slcsbee. "I had not retired. 1 was writing letters. I find It impos elble to describe the sound or shock, but the impression remains of some thing awe-inspiring, terrifying, of noise rending, vibrating, all-pervading. There Is nothing in the former experience of any one on board to measure the ex pkslon by. "After the first great shock I cannot myself recall how many sharp detona tions I heard, not more than two or three I knew my ship was gone. In such a structure as the Maine the ef fects of such an explosion are not for a moment in doubt. "I made my way through the long passageway In the dark, grouping from side to side, the hatchway and then Into the poop, being among the earlles ti reach that spot. So soon as I recog nlzed the officers I ordered the high ex plosives to be flooded and I then dl rected that the boats available be low ered to rescue the wounded or drown iLg. "Discipline, In perfect measure, pre vailed. There was no more confusion than a call to general quarters would produce, not as much. "I soon saw by the light of the flames that all my officers and crew left alive and on board, surrounded me. I can not form any idea of lhs time, but It seemed five minutes from the time I reached the poop until I left, the last man It was possible to reach having been saved. It must have been three quarters of an hour or more, however from the amount of work done. "I remember the officers and men worked together lowering the boats and that the gig took some time to lower T did not notice the rain of debris de scribed by Lieutenant Lariffln or others who were on deck at the time of the first explosion, but I did observe the ex plcsion of the fixed ammunition and wondered that more were not thereby. "Without going beyond the limits of what was proper in the harbor! of a friendly power, I always maintain pre cautions against attack and the quar ter watch was ordered to have am munition for the smaller guns ready to hand, so that in the improbable event of an attack on the ship it would have been found ready. It was this ammu nitlon which exploded as the hea reached It." Same Kplilf Lirra. New York, Feb. 21. Monitor Associa- Nnvol Veterans, port or urooK- lyn, has adopted a series of resolution on the subject of the Maine aisasir. which after expressing sympathy with the friends and relatives or me victims says: "Resolved. That the same spin whiPh 1M us to the defense of ou nii-(rv in 1861 to 1SG5 is still alivt within our breasts, and if any wrong has been done, which uoa rorDia. dui. if nrh la the fact, wc hereby offer out services to our beloved country and it flag."
