Testimony on Maine disaster details explosive impact and wreck
Ensign Powelson and other witnesses describe the forward ship damage from an explosion near the conning tower, with plates bent, decks displaced, and shells found in the shell room. Private McKay and divers corroborate a force from port to starboard, suggesting an underwater mine rather than an internal blast.
