Testimony That the Maine Disas—

MORE BODIES RECOVERED
A The li'omd Decides Not to Attempt to
J Raise the Battleship—Will Go to Key
-' “Test To-Day—Disaster Discussed at
Cabinet Meeting.
Ha a,vana Cuba, Feb. 26—The United
States Naval Board of Inquiry contin-
ued yesterday taking the testimony of
the divers who have been working in
the wreck of the Maine. Those who
I were sent here from the battleship
on‘va and the cruiser New York were
examined.
While, of course, the members of 'the
court will not talk for publication, your
correspondent has been informed
on the highest authority that the
evidence of Diver Morgan as to the
condition of the Maine, was sensational
in the extreme. It shows almost beyond
the possibility of a. doubt, in the opin-
ion of my informant, that the Maine
was blown up by an outside agency.
Furthermore, Morgan’s report was ver-
ified by the other American divers who
descended.
The court will finish its work here to-
day and proceed at once to Key West
to take the testimony of the survivors
them. It has also been decided not to
return to Havana, all the information
as to the cause of the disaster obtain—
able here having already been secured.
It is believed that a decision has been
p1 actically reached. The witnesses yet
to be examined will hardly change the
ve1dict.
The court has decided against any at-
tempt to raise the ruined battleship.
The members are convinced that it
would be useless, as she could never be
kept afloat, and the‘Spanish authori-
ties here will be informed that if they
wish the wreck removed from the har-
bor they must attend to the work them-
selves. This decision gives a better
idea. of the terrible havoc wrought in
the Maine than columns of descriptions
could do.
The Merritt Wrecking Company, it is
announced, want $2,000,000 to raise the
wreck. The company’s representatives
made this demand after viewing the
condition of the ship.
Twenty unknown bodies of the crew
were recovered from the wreck by the
divers at noon yesterday. The bodies
were frightfully burned and mangled
and it may be impossible to ever idenq
tify some of them. _ V_______.J
okra-.11. 11. cnanwrcx,

A very significant fact in regard to
the belief of the Washington authori-
ties as to the cause of the disaster came
to light yesterday. Secret service men
are here actively working in directions
towards which suspicion points.
Whether they are acting under direct
orders from Washington or under the
Board of Inquiry cannot be stated.
All the wounded will leave here to-
morrow on theBache for Key West.
The physicians consider it safe to' move
them now, Holzer, who died yesterday,
being the only one whose condition has
been critical for some time.
GEN. LEE’S OPINION.
It Is Against the Accident Theory—.Ex-
ternal Agencies Caused Explosion.
Washington, Feb. 26.—Despite the'
dispatches from Havana. and the per-
sistent rumors as to the condition of
the hull of the Maine there is absolutely
nothing official .in regard to these mat-
ters at the State or Navy Department.
While it is true that Consul-General
Lee has sent a letter to the State De-
partment giving his opinion that ex-
ternal agencies caused the explosion on
the Maine, this is not an authoritative
finding of the Court of Inquiry, and is
only considered as the personal opin-
ion of General Lee.
All stories claiming to be authentic
in regard to any findings by the Court
of Inquiry are absolutely false, and are
founded on mere speculations. The
court will not render a. verdict or give
out any information in regard to (the
investigation until it hasclosed its work
and made its report to. the Secretary
of the Navy. It will then be laid be-
fore the President, and after that made
public.
this repoit will be of such a character
as not to precipitate a. conflict. Presi—
dent McKinley is to-day more deter-
mined than ever to prevent war, if pos-
sible, and, as stated in these dispatches
yesterday, he is confident that the pres-
ent trouble can be settled by diploma.-
cy. He gets this View from the fact
that it has been indicated from Madrid
officially that Spain is even more anx-
ious than the United States to prevent
hostilities. Spain has semi—officially
announced that should the investiga-
way in the explosion she is ready to
pay any reasonable indemnity that
may be demanded.
There is still a possibility that these
diplomatic arrangements may be dis-
If it 'is shown conclusively that Spain
is reaponslble the temper of the public
may be such that it will be reflected in
Congress to. such an extent that it may

~ W’ashington,
held a. two-and-a—half. hours’ Session
yosterdayand adjourned without taka
IDS any action in regard to the Maine.
There was a. full attendance for. the
first time in several weeks and consid-
crable time was taken in explainingto
the two members who have been sick,
Secx etaries Alger and Sherman, the ex-
.tct condition of affairs. After the'ad-
journment the members were exceed-
ingly frank in their talk as to the situ-.
ation. Secretaries Long, Alger, Bliss
a..d G1iggs did not hesitate to say that
the situation was unchanged, that there
was no need for apprehension, nor had
the President changed in the least his
policy of waiting until the investigation
was over before making up hisrmindl
as to the cause of the explosion. The
members of the Cabinet further stated
that absolutely nothing had been re-
ceived from Havana throwing any light
on the investigation for the last five
days. Every particle of news or infor-
mation which had been received had
been given to the public, and the lat-‘
ter knew as much as to the cause of
the explosion as did the President and.
the Cabinet.
Secretary Long stated that it was true
that the Cabinet had spent some time
discussing the explosion, but. this dis-
cussion was not based upon any new
information, but upon the detailed ex-
planation necessary for an intelligent
comprehension of the disaster by the
two Cabinet members who have been
absent for several weeks. The Secre-
tary further stated that nothing had
been received at. the Navy Department
to-day and that, so far as the Admin—
istration was converned, there was no.
change in the situation.
Several members of the Cabinet ** re
asked in legard to the speculation as
to an indemnity to beasked of Spain,
should the investigation show that the
Spanish Government was in someway
responsible for the disaster. One of
the Cabinet answered?
“In the absence of information to
'show the real cause of‘the explosion, it
would be undiplomatic, to say the least,
ot consider this matter at: this time.
The President has absolutely no more

information as to the explosion to-day
that he hadtwenty-four hours after it
occurred. He is waiting patiently for
a verdict from the Court of Inquiry
andyi-s advising the people to do the
same. As to the indemnity, or a call
for reparation, it will be time enough
to consider these when the verdict is
given.” ‘
When it was pointed out to the Cab-
inet officer that there was considerable
talk about an indemnity being asked,
and that cartoons had been published
in certain papers showing a maSs of.
mangled bodies of dead sailors and de-
bris from the ship, the whole being la-
beled, “Will money pay for this?” the
Cabinet officer said:
“That query can be answered by the
question, ‘Would it be paid for by more,
mangled bodies and more distress to
our citizens?’ ”
“But,” he added, “this is not a time
to discuss this phase of the question.
We are still determined, as the Presi-
dent was as soon as he heard of the ac-
cident, to first find the cause and know-
ing the truth, be ready to act. W'hen
the cause is discovered what will be
done will then be determined.”
Another Cabinet officer, when asked-
if the President and Cabinet had con-
sidered the result, if the verdict of the
Court of Inquiry proved that Spain was
responsible for the explosion,
whether, if this was so, the people
could be restrained in their indignation
against Spain, replied: ‘
“The answer is the same as in the
other questions, and that is that the
President is determined that the true
cause of the explosion shall be found
first, and the verdict given before he
deals _with any ‘ifs.’ ”
The Cabinet officer added: “I am sure
that We can trust the President to deal
rightly with the question when that
time comes, for he has certainly han—
dled it in the right way so far, and my
advice to all the people is to keep cool,
not to believe sensational or unau—
thorized reports, but wait patiently for
the verdict from the Court of Inquiry."

Has hanotism’s mysterious power

In epidemic form of late and sensible -

privilege of any person so choosing to :
let up as a hypnotist.
nany pretenders, there are three class-
es who perform, or attempt, hypnotism
—the physicians, who make use of it
In their practice; the professionals,
who really possess to- a marked degree
“19 Power of exerting this influence 7
over others, and the amateurs, who
tttempt it for fun.
A most apt and curiously romantic
story hinging upon the hypnotic agen-
:y of an amateur has just come from
atlanta, Ga. James Carraway, former-
ly a printer of that town, but now a
hypnotist and mind reader, won and
married Miss Tillie Meyer of New
York, an heiress, whose father is re-
puted to be worth $3, 000,000. The
marriage followed a courtship lasting
out two hours.. Carraway was giving
exhibitions at St. Augustine, Fla., and
met Miss Meyer at the hotel where he
was staying. A few hypnotic glances
”of the eye and a powwow of the hands,
and the trick of winning an heiress
was done.
The news that young Carraway had
won an heiress created a tremendous
sensation among his former Atlanta
issociates, who knew him as a penni-
‘ess printer a month ago. He now
occupies the most expensive apart-
ments at the swellest. hotels and gives
it. out as his intention to go to India to
Dursue a course in psychological re-
search, andpthat it is likely he will re-
tire from the hypnotic stage in defer-
ence to his wife’s wishes.
Another curious and unusual in-
stance is that told of Charles W. Smi-
‘ey of Washington, a well-known pub-
Lisher of scientific magazines, whose
wife is suing him for divorce. Smiley
has just filed his answer to his wife’s
olea. Mrs. Smiley, it appears, charged
her husband with cruelty, with “inoc—
~11ating her with ideas inconsistent
with modern civilization, with undue
influence over her, and practically with
aypnotizing her and inoculating theo-
lophical teachings.” In his answer Mr.
Smiley, afte1 disposing of the conven-.
:ional charges, said that so fa1 as those
:ouching hypnotism and theosophy
vere concerned they were “scandalous.
’rrelevant and impertinent.”
Perhaps the most remarkable of all
:he recent-stories of the malevolent or
tinister use of the hypnotic power was
that which came from Paris. Among
:he patients who went to consult a cer-
:ain physician was a woman who com-
plained of terrible hallucinations im-
nelling her to commit suicide. In the
.2211]: that followed, the doctor discover:
ad that the woman’s husband had in-
sured her life for a considerable sum,
1nd also was in the-habit of putting
ner under the hypnotic influence. It
naturally occurred to the physician
hat there might be some secret relation
between these two facts. He put his
oatient to sleep and ordered her to re-
veal what her husband had suggested
0 her while in the trance state. Un-
ler the mesmeric influence, the wife
:old her story. She said she had been
1rdered by her husband to commit sui-
:ide within two months, and also that.
19 had enjoined her with great empha-a
;is to keep this order entirely secret.
the doctor was discreet enough to ‘ob-
tain witnesses to the woman’s state-
ments, and thus the husband’s plan for
)eating the insurance companies was
)alked.
There is always great danger in the
experiments of the parlor hypnotists,
who do not understand anything about
:he mysterious force, but who often
:ry it out of curiosity. feeling a pride
.n being able to manipulate a power so _
great and so wonderful. It is looked
man as 9. nova. entertainment for a
:0mpany of guest-.3 at evening gather-
ngs. Often they fail to rouse their
subjects fiom the‘r catalcptic
:ion, and a physician hasi'to be sum-
honed. Even then the subject may die
if brain fever or other malady superin-
luced by the experiment. ’
Most physicians agree with this; 3.2-in-
on lately voiced by Dr. Shrady of New

Miss Estelle Reel, State Superintendenl

ment, of which, by virtue of her office
she has. charge, that the State had ovez
four millions of acres of grazing lands
donated. by the General Government

tutions.. The act donating the land
had placed a minimum price at which
it could be sold by the State of $10 an
acre, and as the General Governmenl
was selling its lands at $1.25 per acre
there was, of course, no sale for the
State» lands. The income to the State
