PROCEEDINGS OF THE INVESTIGAT- ING COMMISSION, Wreck Slewly Sinking — Wounded Doing Well, Havana, Feb. £6.—The court of inquiry vestera 4y worning #al ionger tPan urual. The six divers were examined more in decail than ever before. The cloudy weather and rain made the work of the divers wnsatisfaciory yesterday; and therefore but little work was done. It is reported that a hole has been made by the divers in one of the forward hatches and it is hoped to anumber of bodies. In the harbor here there is no tidal cur- rept to clear away the mud and settlings so the water is very murky and difficult to work in. The wreck get out of the Maine is slowly sink~ Before the hull could be raised, the guns and deck debris of a!] kinds must be taken out. This takes time and for lack of proper applicances practically nothing has been done yet. Aside from the offices and cabin effects, the salvage thus far has been small. The time of departure of the Mangrove, with the court of inquiry, for Key West is stillin doubt. She is not likely, as now appears, to sail today, and Cap‘ain Samp- s0n Says it is doubtful whether she will sailtomorrow. The captain repeats his former statement, that all depends on the development of the testimony. The wounded here are doing quite well. The Spauish cruiser Alfonso XII. has been towed to a buoy farther within the harbor to make room for the cruiser Vizcaya which is expected bere tomorrow or the next day from the uorth. The news of all kinds here is mere routine at present, there being no excite-~ ment and even rumors are less active than usual. ing. — i Do you want a New York Cap?
