The Plates ' Aud Supports 'Are Bent Upward. 18 Feet of Wreck Exposed., Haven, July 20th. With the berth deck of the demolished battleship Maine partly uncovered, workmen bave start ed on a systematic search for the skel etons of the remaining dead of the crew whose bodies have reposed in the hulk since the night the battleship was blown up. The work of reeovenug the skeletons will be difficult as the mud and marine growth ia ao thick and heavy it will not yield to hydraulic,' but will have to be dug out with pick, shovel and rake, ' The scene of wreckage revea'ed, now that the water has been pumped to the 13-foot level, is appalling. The entire structure from "frame eighteen" for ward is a, twisted mass of shattered iteeL ." .' It is known that the officials at work on the wreck believe how it will be an easy matter to prove that the initial ex plosion waa an outside one. The frames which supported the deck plating and planking forward are bent upward, and what ia believed to have been the flat keel of the Maine ia curved, plainly, i ii understood, from the effect of an outside explosion. The engineers in charge of the work started the laying of the foundations for the cranes and derricks which are to be used to remove the heavy por tions of the wreck aire. They are also inspecting the central bulkheads. If the latter are intact they will be closed and the after part of the wreck will be floated and towed out of the harbor. The cofferdam ia holding tight The atone dumped to strengthen the leaky portions has strengthened the structure so there is now no apparent danger of it collapsing. The work of getting out of the mud. which how enshrouds the entire wreckage, will prove most d'ffi cult and more costly than was at first anticipated.
