J. P. (iib'nins, of London, Who Furnished
the Spaniards, Gives
the JIines to
and Says
Proof of Their Treachery
Two Men “'ere Concerned. -
New York, April 8.-—'I‘h-e World this
morning publishes a. letter from J. P.
G'ibbins, of London, a. part of which is
as follows:
The only submarine mines which
have been supplied to the Spanish Gov-
ernment since 1886-87 were manufac-
tured under my own patent-s.
I then supplied them with fifty-six
ground mines, twenty—five buoyant
mines, each with a charge of 500
pounds of guncotton, and fifteen el-ec-
tro-contact mines, exploded either on
eon-tact or by observation from shore,
each containing a. charge of 100 pounds
of guncotton.
The mines sent to Havana would still
retain full effectiveness. They will last
under water for an indefinite period.
In 1896-97 the Spanish Government
ordered a fresh supply of my patent
mines. Whether they went to Havana.
or no is immaterial.
One of the mines supplied in 1886 is
still fully capable of causing the de-
struction of the Maine.
In fact, I am convinced, from all the
surrounding circumstances that no
other agency could have caused it.
In direct contradiction of the asser-
tions of the secretary of the Spanish
Legation at Washington and of General
W'eyler that there are no submarine
mines in Havana. Harbor, I absolutely
aflirm that I shipped the above mines
“for Havana and Ferrel on a. Spanish
ship, the propenty of the Spanish Gov-
ernment, and officered by Spanish na-
val officers, with two captains, at the
West India dock, London.
My mines are in electrical connection
with the shore, and it is quite impos-
sible that they could be exploded ex-
cept 'by design.
I am convinced also that the explo-
sion of the mine Which destroyed the
Maine was the work of one of two men,
for these reasons:
Finst—A vessel swinging either an-
chored or moored. upon striking the
circuit closer case would merely drop
a shutter on the keyboard on shore,
warning the officer 111 charge that she
was in contact with the mine. _
Second—Before the officer is in a po-
sition to fire the mine he must obtain
one of two keys. One generally is kept
by the commandant, the other by the
officer in charge of the firing station.
He then must unlock the glass door
over which the shutter has fallen and
insert a red danger plug in the insu-
lated sw-itoh.
Third—He must insert a plug in the
switch of the firing bar-wary eavth plate.
Fourth—The firing key is arranged
with a locking armature of ebonite,
which must be unlocked before the
danger point is arrived at.
Fifth—The firing key (hammer must.
be pressed on to «the contact anvil to
complete the circuit that explodes the
det-onator, by which the mine in turn
is exploded.
I have not the slightest Eliesi'tatio-n in
saying that the Maine was deliberately
destroyed with a. 5GO-pound ground
mine as invented and supplied by me.
The only practical” way of discover-
ing the mine that sunk «the Maine is
by undermining the cable from the
shore to. the junction box and from
thence underrutming each individual
cable to’th‘e mine, until one was found
without a. mine attached.
I am «satisfiedthat‘rthe explosion was
caused by a ground mine—not by a.
buoyant mine—for Havana. harbor is
too shallow to admit. of the use of the
latter. ‘ > 1 ' ‘
I am preparedto satisfy by demon-
stration any jury of reasonable men
that this is the true explanation of the
destruction of the Maine.

Albany, April 8.—-Attorney General
Hancock will make an application in

Pacified Cubans Flee in Alarm
.To the Woods.
AMERICANS GETTING: OUT.
the Reconcentrados are Veritably Between
the Devil and. the Deep Sea—Spanish
Soldiers Promise 15th and Massacre as
Soon as Hostilities Begin.
Havana, via Key erst,‘ April 8.—1 P.
l‘.’I.——Although the city is in a terrible
state of excitement no actual trouble
has occurred up to this. time. Great
as the panic is among the Americans,
who are well aware of the danger to
which they will be exposed when the
long restraii-cd hatred of the Spanish
Volunteers is allowed to burst into acts
of violence and revenge, the terror is
still greater among the Cuban families,
who realize that they will be more
than ever at the mercy of those fiends
when hostilities are declared.
For this reason all who are in a po-
sition to flee to the United States are
getting ready to leave by the first
Steamship-s, and many are trying to
take to the woods, where they believe
they would be much safer. Burt know-
ing this, the authorities have issued
orders to prevent all families from
moving into the interior. Reports of
massacres are constantly reaching the
city.
It may be safely said that while all
the Cubans are anxious for American
intervention to become a fact, and for
American warships to come to take
possession of." the Cuban seaports, the
defenseless families would willingly go
to the United States, not because they
are afraid to see the cities bombarded,
but because of the certainty that out-
rages of all kinds are in store for them
atthe hands of the Spanish rabble.
A report just made public here that
three American fleets will simultane-
ously attack Cuba, Porto Rico and the
Philippine Islands has added to the
rage of the Spanish, and they swear
that .they will take revenge upon who—
ever may come within their reach who
is not a loyal Spaniard.
General Blvanco ostensibly makes
every effort to maintain order, but it is
an open secret that as soon as war is
declared the city vi! Havana. will be
practically turned over to the Volun-
teers.
The ranks of this armed body have
increased by several thousand men
within the last few days. All Span-
iards between the ages of nineteen and
fifty have been ordered to join the ex-
isting regiments. General Blanco’s
idea at first was to compel all able-
bodied Cub-ans also to enlist, but on
second thought he abandoned hits plan,
for fear that when war broke out the
Cubans might use the anus given to
them in fighting; Spain.
Passports to the number of 386 were
issued to departing Americans within
twenty—four hours. The wharves are
piled wit-h baggage and the streets are
being. patrol-_-. by cavalry. ,
0f the rec-oncentrados who were lib-
stated on Tuesday four were found
murdered on the outskirts of Santa
Clara.

The Ohio Senate Committee Disgruntled
by the Action of One of Its Members.
Columbus, 0., April 8.-—It is not like-
ly that the repont of the Senate Brib-
ery Investigation Committee which, it
is said, accuses Mr. Hanna of the em-
ployment of questionable means in se-
curing his election will report this
week. The ranks of the committee have
been torn somewhat by the premature
announcement of the committee’s re-
port.
Senator Finck, a member of the com-
mittee declares that Senator Burke has

ing that if he ever signs the document
it must be in modified form. The three
Democratic members of the committee
have decided .to meet and modify the

AMEHICANS TO LEAVE.
Clara. Barton Cables That General Lee
Has Advised All to Get Out of
Havana by To-Morrow.
New York, April 8.—Step-hen Barton,
of the Central Cuban Relief Commit-
tee, received a cablegram from Miss
Clara Barton from Havana, which read
as follows:
“Lee advises all Americans to leave
by special steamer Friday.”
Relative to the cable, Mr. Barton
said: “As far as Miss Barton’s safety
and that of the other members of the
Red Cross is concerned, let me say that
if they have only the Spanish soldiers
to deal with, they are as safe as though
they were in New York. Between Gen-
eral Blanco and Miss Barton the most
cordial relations exist, and the emblem
of the Red Cross would be the surest
protection -to be had. Many Spaniards
are members of the Red Cross, and it
is honored and respected by them.”

Havana, via Key West, Fla., April 8.
-——The proposition to seize food supplies
sent from the United States to consuls

Which the Norwalk Reader
Will do Well to Long
and Carefully
Consider.
Man is issued into this‘world with a
big cargo of passions, and a full head
of sail. It often happens that before
he gets the rudder adjusted that the
hull is rotten or the sails are in tatters. .
As he hustles 01‘ passes through this
planet he is subjected to innumerable
difficulties, morally, physically and
financmlly, to bring his crazy craft into
port after weathering a gale, to cast
anchor 1n a pleasant harbor, after rid-
ing out a storm, or to tie up aftera
long voyage is always a. pleasure. To
dry dock his shi p is force work. Just
as long as the old hulk will slip through .
the water it’s all right with the pilot,
but one day retarded by accumulations
of barnacles, the pitchy seams opening,
and the bottom broken from constant
pounding, he is compelled to call at
the ship yard for repairs.
Mr. Thomas Cooney residing at No.
73 Harbor Ave, dockmaster for ten
years, and for thirty years a sailor, is
an example of this. He was forced to
run 1n "for shelter or for repairs in the
fall "of 1895. This is how he tells it:—
“VVhen a boy I fell from a tree, strik-
ing a fence. This accident left me
with back trouble, and the life on the
water with its hardships added their
share until I found backache was more
or less a steadything, coming on from
time to time; I did not understand
that .it came from the kidneys, but
reading,r that Doan’s Kidney Pills cured
backache I got a box at Hale’s (now
Glendening & Co’s) drug store and
was surprised to find how quickly they
acted. They simply cured me and that .
is all there is to it. You may be sure I
have a. good word for Doan's Kidney
Pills, they did such good work for me.
I shall be glad to tell anyone about it
who Wishes to know.”

N W YURK’S CANAL SCANDAL.
Mr. Adams Defends the Large Preliminary
Engineering Expenses.
Albany, April S.—T-he examination of
State Engineer Adams by the canal in-
vestigating '. commission was continued
yost—erdayfi)’1r. Adams testified that the
preliminarygexpenses for engineering
up Ito December 1, 1897, were $272,032.
He considered that expanse necessary.
Counsel Blackmar then read from the
1876 report of former State Engineer
Van oven on the survey of the canals
made under his supervision. The re-
port stated that the survey was very
complete, and that the records of it
were filed in the State Engineer’s of-
fice for future reference. This survey
cost $14,988.
Mr. Adams said the records of that
survey were valueless for the canal im-
provei ant. He next «stated that it took
two years to make the Van Buren sur-
vey, and added: “We should have
been derelict in our duty .if we had
taken as much time to make the sur-
vey. Of necessity the survey was made
in winter, which added greatly ‘to the
expense."
An adjournment was taken until
1.3m day next. The appointment of Ly-
man E. Cooley of Chicago as advisory
engineer was announced.
Strikers to Return to “'ork.
Lewist-on, Mon, April S.—-All but twen—

vailed for eleven weeks, is at an end.
Those who refused to go to work will
find employment elsewhere. Most of
the machinery at the mills was in op-
eration to-day and the plant will be
running in full on Monday next. No
promises have been made to the strik-
ers, the reduction which caused the
trouble last January stiill remaining in
