Default Tress stump removal

Sadly I have had to have a large elderly unkempt Magnolia tree
removed from my garden (it was either that or the wall being
pushed over!) Tree surgeons said that they could not do
anything because of the many entwined/merged trunks.

I now have a tree stump at ground level to try and remove,
again because of the wall, digging is not an easy option. Can I
get anything to pour/insert into the trunk to help speed up its
rotting down process?

Strangely the wood seems to be exuding dampness, dispite the
hot sunny day, where as the (much smaller) trunk of a small
conifer removed at the same time remains dry.

Many thanks
