Wants Aoi Additional "Appropria
tion For Raising The Maine,
And Other Recommenda
tions. ' Washington, Aug. 22 President Taf t
sent three hort message to Congress,
o euriging a further appropriation to
eompleta the work of raising the wreck
of the battleship Maine, a aecon (task
ing. Congress to determine whether "the
Spanish vessels sunk by the' American
navy shall be given away and the third
tranmitting reports of engineers of
surveys on the Gerat Lakes.
The Maine recommendation was by
way of transmittal of the report, of
Secretary of War Stimson, wlfchaa re
cently investigate i the work on the
Maine and has urged an appropriation
t complete it. The message regard-
in the Spanish war vessels graw put of
a request of a Norwegian wrecking
Company to the Cuban governmen for
permission to raise the wrecks. Presi
dent Taf t in his message pointed out
that as these wrecks are the property
of the United States, it rests with Con
gress to decide whether they shall be
given away.
President Taf t referred to Chief En
gineer Bixby's estimate of $240,000
for completing the work of raising the
Maine and to Secret a y of War Stim
son 'a subsequent inspection, and report.
Be declared, the United States would
be derelict in its duty if ii did toot pro
vide ample' money to finish this task.
President added, "1 concur fully in
the conclusions which the Secretary of
War has reached and in the recommend
ations which he makes in respect of an
additional appropriation fur this work
that nothing may remain undone to en
able the world to snow the original
cause of the explosion of the Maine."
The message regarding the Spanish
vessels, sunlt off Sanitiago, said the
Norwegian Company asked Cuba's
permission to raise the wrecks on a ten
per cent, salvage basis. The r" resident
submitted an opinion of Secretary of
S-ate Knox who held: "The Depart
ment of Slate is inclined to the , view
that the Spanish ships destroyed by
the United States forces in war on
what was then Spanish territory, be
came the property of the victors and
passed with Spain's relinquishment of
Cuba into the absolute possession of
the Unitee Slates."
WATER SCARCE
CHARLOTTE
Situation go Aopte That Tank Gar
Lines Are I Hauling Wa
ter Night and Day.
Charlotte, Aug: 22 - The Charlotte'
water situation ha become so acute
that, the city authorities have ordered
the tank car lines to rename night and
day operations between the city and
the Catawba river. Since the service
bad been dispensed wth for some days
it took quite a while to get things run
ning nicely again.
Upon the arrival here late Saturday
of the big pressure, filter which the
Charlotte authorities had purchased
from the xity of Asheville, the citizens
at once thought it would be only a mat
ter of a short while until they would be
served with tillered Uriar creek acqua
pura. The residents had another think
coming to them, however, for the big
filter which for some while previous to
the installation of Asi.eville'B gravity
water system had been the means of
purifying the Swatmanoa flu'd for the
mountain metropolis, rebelled at the
idea of spending the rest of its days at
Briar creek.
The big mass of sti el behaved itself
very well while in the Lnnd of the Sky,
and was loaded on the Hat car without
mishap.
Upon its arrival in Charlotte th? city
fathers contracted with J. P. Carr to
convey the filter to Biiar creek. Trou
ble was Mr. Carr's portion, for ultho'
he thought he was getting the strong
est wagon in Charlotte, it proved help
less under the weight of the monster
iron filter. The wagon wheel wan
crushed into numerous small particles
before he had proceeded very far, an
other wheel was supplied, but more
trouble came before he went much fur
ther. Tonight the filler is Bomewhere
near Briar creek and may possibly be
plac ed in a day or so.
