n1r. nraclienzio said tho loss to the Company
will be slight, aB tho Europe was insured, prin-
cipally In English companies, for four~fifths Of
ller value. The prcciso character of tho Europe's
cargo is not known here. but, as nearly all tho
cargo is from Fronch ports, it doubtless is worry
valuable, consisting of silks, lacos, and wines.

New YonE, April 8.-The valuo Of the lost
stonmship Europe WAS about 81, est, 600, and she
was insured In Fronch insurance companies for
! about two-thtrGa Of her full value. Her cargo
was worry valuable ono, consisting chiefly Of
aks, wincs. and sardinos. Her agents think
that she probably carried groat quantity Of ex-
trn tlue goods Tor the spring trado, and that the
ya1uo Of her cargo could not have bcon loss than
81. .000,000 Tile greater portion OF those gooda
was probably insured. Their exact value can-
not. Of COURSE, DO nscortainod until the arrival Of
her manifest. Tho Grooce, with tho rescued
passengers, Ia expected to arrive either tonight
| or Tomorrow, and all that Is now doubtful con-
corning tho disaster will 10 solved then.

tho fleet owned by tho Trench Transatlantic
Company, md was considered by all to BIO fine,
soaworthy vessel, and we'll formed in every re-
spoot. She was lengtheued last year ut New
