TIE WRECK OF TIE CAMBRIA.
Probable Loss of Nearly all on Board.


WAsIuSGToS, Oct, %.
Tho total loss of the steamship Cambria
which was yesterday rumOred, Is fully
confirmed by later dispatches and there
is little to give hope that the passenger
who had taken TO the boats have escaped
The coast is n very rough one and 1t |!
evident from the uIsctting OF the one boa
from which single survivor Of the wreck
was picked up, that tho sea was very
rough ut the time Of the disaster, ncvCrthc
less those who had friends on board ncet
not he in haste 10 imagine the worst. The
coast Is admirably guarded by expert ant
adventurous men and 1t is not impossible
that II the boats Are driven ashore thai
some Of the passengers were saved.
Other less fiItal but still serious marine
losses, arc reported this morning, many oi
them on our own Coasls. The late gales
arc everywhere dangerous, and we may
expect to hear Tor several days Of serious
wrecks along the Atlantic and gulf coasts
The Cambria was considered in sound
condition, and has ever been regarded us
one Of tho finest vessels on any Of the ocean
lines. She was but recently rebuilt, thor
oughly Of iron, and in every wNy pre-
paTcd for the sCvcrcSt contests Of wind OF
wave. Capt CarnAghan, the commander
Orthe Cambria, during this ill.fatCd voy.
age, was one Of the most experienced and
skilllul naval officers visiting this port. HC
has been in command Of vessels Of the An
chOr Line, for several years, wns thor
Oughly COnvGrsAnt with The navigation oi
the transatlantic route 10 Glasgow.
