Wahiiinuton, Mar. 2. Seorutnry Long
as decided to solid two naval vessels to
Culm with forty or fifty toiiH of provis
ions for tin; relief of tlio suffering recoil
rctitrudoH. It la Hiilcl iui mori;iiic;y ex
tats which Hilda's it necessary totiisputch

ilatunz.iB and tlio Kushvlllo to Siiguu lu
Grumli!. The vessels will ruturii imme
diately nftur delivering thur supplies,
which woru furnished hy tho New York
Cuban relief committee.
The U'lision over tho Maine affair ia
noticeably relieved in oflicial quarters
totJuy, partly lioeotiuo of tlio absence of
dispatches to tho state or navy depart
ineiits bearingon the subject, mid hIho
because of the conservatism inspired by
Secretary Long's utterance to the efl'cct
tlmt thoeloiniiitof Spnnish participation
in the disaster had been eliminated iu
bis judgment.
Although the navy departments hud
no report from Ilavanu or Key West, a
dispatch announcing the departure of
the cruiser llrooklyn from Lntitu Lucia
far La Guayru had some direct signifi
cance on the further removing ot the
larger vessels from Vf hat lias thus fur
been tlio common center of naval activity
at Key West. The Brooklyn will make
a short stop at Lu Guara and will then
proceed further southward.

The Maine's hack was broken. Laler
discoveries made by divers not only sup
port the Information printed by the
Herald concerning the disclosures of
pnramount importance by Ensign Pow
ellson, but convince those in charge of
the submarine investigation that a mine
rent the battleship asunder. The keel
of the ship has been found in two pieces
the nearest ends of which are separated
by a distance of from two and one-half
to three feet. The sections arc no longer
lying in one straight line, but show the
effect of a force executed from port to
starboard.
It Is evident from the discovery of the
present condition ot the keel that the
section ot the bottom found twenty-five
fleet from its natural position was
wrenched from its belt by the first ex
plosion and driven upward. The keel
itself was forced in the middle until it
was broken und then collapsed in two
sections, and well in position the divers
found it yesterday.
