PLAN TO REFLOAT
SPAHIS^VESSELS
Resiles Speculation as to Valua
of tlie Hulks,
OPINION OF ERSIHEERS
\
Secretary Knox Declares Spanish
Wrecks in Santiago Harbor Belong
to United States—ln Safes of the
Men-of-War Many Golden Coins
Locked.
Piesident Taft’s recent message to
congress asking that it be determined
whether the Spanish mcn-of-war sunk
in the battle of Santiago thirteen
years ago should be given away and
Secretary Knox's opinion that the
wrecks belong to the United States,
have revived speculation here as to
the possibility of refloating the ships.
Engines, s who have studied the loea
t’on of the three battleships and two
torpedo boats, are of the opinion that
their salvage is practicable and would
warrant the expense of saving the
hulks.
Seven miles west of the narrow
mouth of Santiago harbor lies the first
of Cervera's battleships, the Al
mirante Oquendo. She is bleached in I
the breakers of Juan Gonzales, with i
about one-third of the hulk visible..
Long ago she was stripped of every
portable article by wreckers who
j braved a watery grave for the prizes
I she was reputed to have held. They ;
; took everything they could pry loose, i
I including, report has it, many thou- i
; sands of golden coins from the ship’s ;
safe. Re rent inspection has shown
that the Almlranfe Oquendo was i
| sacked even of the rivets which held ■
j her fixtures in place.
Admiral Cervera’s battleship, the:
Vizcaya, lies S miles further down the I
rocky coast, as much a victim to the I
depredations of ocean junkmen as the
Oquendo. A third of her term break •
the land line, and it is believed there i
would be comparatively little difScul-'
ty In recovering her, althoui h slit
■would be worthless, it is thought, as
a vessel of war.
Nothing Disturbed Aboard Colon.
At Rio Torquino is the Christobal!
Colon. The Colon has been preserved
from the hand cf the vandal by four,
fathoms of water above her. Locked ■
in her safe there is said to be a large '
amount of money; aboard her noth-'
ing has been disturbed since she was!
silenced by the American guns and ■
run ashore to prevent her capture. I
The water is comparatively deep at ■
the point whore she lies submerged, •
and the land rises abruptly from the!
sea, a sheer precipice of considerable
proportions. Her salvage would prob
ably be the most difficult of the three,
engineers assart.
The history of the fourth vessel of /
the fleet, the Infanta Maria Teresa, j
Is well known. She was floated by I
Lieutenant Richmond P. Hobson, of {
Merrimac fame, and lost in tow of |
an American war vessel when on her
way to an American port during a
squall off Cat Island in the West In
dies. Engineers have decreed her un
worthy of a second attempt at sal
vage.
The two secondary vessels of Ad
miral Cervera’s fleet, the torpedo boats
Furor and Pluton, lie submerged not
far from the harbor entrance. The I
safe of the Pluton and easily portable :
articles from her deck and cabins <
have been recovered. The Furor is ।
still undisturbed. Both lie in compar
atively shallow water.

GOVERNORS TO MEET. .
Executives Wil! Discuss Weighty Mat
ters of State.
For the first time within recent
i American history the governors of ap
proximately forty of the forty-six
states will meet in conference at
; Sp:ing Lake, N. J., Tuesday, Septem
i ber 12. Thirty-seven chief executives^
; have accepted the call outright, sew
eraLfrom nearby commonwealths
have yet to be heard from, and of the
small remainder those who can so ar
range the r duties will attend for at
least a portion of the time. The 'orig
inal conference at the white house,
, held upon call cf President Roose
velt in 19H, was attended by thirty
। three conferences.
The full five days cf the program
will be devoted to discussion of ques
tions now uppermost in the minds of
statesmen, while social affairs will bo
kept in the background. Last ye. r at
Louisville a round of entertainment
\ was provided which took so much
time that the l usincss of the confer
ence was cart..i! d. When they ad
journed to meet r.t Spring Lake the
governors told Gc 7 error Wilson that
' they wanted to come this year for se
rious busmess, and would leave the
social end to their wives m d others
who might accompany them. Ac
cordingly GoAwmor Wilson and the
committee have^'refused to allow any
; entertainments to be arranged, ex
j cent, a reception which he and Mrs.
I Wilson will give at the state cottage
[ at Sea Girt, September 12, and a din-
I ner to be given the following Thurs
day.
