she will cruise along the west coast.
Captain Sawyer. agent Of the Mallory
line. also started out on board one of
the pilot boats in search of the missing
boats. The only hopes for the safety
of the passengers and crew are based
upon the statement of Capt. Servine. of
the steamer Bu,k Thorn, who saw her
forernast while out yesterday. He re-
ported the end of mast burned off ap-
parently between decks or very close
below the floor ON the upper deck.
which indicates the fire was below and
between decks, in which case she may
have been burning some time, and given
the officers. crew and passengers time
to have left the ship before the flames
reached the upper deck and was dis
covered bv other vessels. 1t is thought
by many that the passengers and crew
may have escaped in the darkness on
board the ships small boats before the
fire on board was seen from the steamer
Fusugama and the steamer San Marcos.
In this event, they would have drifted
with the sea about thirty or forty miles
westward before the wind changed to
the northwest. Another statement
which would appear to confirm the To-
cation of the fire: The City Of Waco
had small wooden case or house built
around the foremsst, where matches,
etc., were stored; this casing reached
upon the mast four feet above the top-
mast was gained below it was only
painted, while the foremast was evil
IDENTIFY burned below deck. On the up
per deck, forward, large quantities of
oil were stored, and as SOON as the
flames reached this the entire uper por-
tion of the vessel was swept by the
flames. The officers of the San Marcos

was first discovered about 2 o'clock.
Nothing was seen wrong with the un-
fortunate ship until she appeared wrap
ped in q sheet of flame. Nothing was
seen of her boats OF passengers and
:rew.
The return of the pilot boat and
steamer outside are anxiously looked
for; it is thought they will be in late to-
night.
NEW YoRK, Nov. l0.-The Herald
publishes this morning telegraphic
,ynopsis of letters received in London
rom Stanley. He says Livingstone was
wrong in reporting that the Victoria
Syapza consisted of five lakes. Spoke
states that Victoria Nyanza is
nut one lake, but Speke's two islands
re peninsulas. The river Shimey is
he principal feeder Of the lake and the
'xtremest source of the Nile yet discov-
red. Stanly had several conflicts with
lave dealers on the lake. On one occa-
ion he was attacked by 100 natives, arm
d with spears. in thirteen canoes, who
vere repulsed after severe light. Three
natives were killed. He arrived at Ute
"a hunting camp. at Msayura. April
9th. where the king directed extraordi-
lary festivities and DISPLAYS. OEe fea-
ure was q naval review ON the lake of
a canoes, manned by $500 men. On
he second day, in addition to naval ma
,euvers, were races. in which "a canoes
we're engaged. each propelled by 80 oars
men. The king led the feet in person
n the presence of great crowd of on
ookers, including the 800 wives of the
ling. On the third day there was bird
and target practice by 800
roops. On the fourth dav he returned
o Mount Esas, the capital. The king
,as two million subjects, is Mussle-
nan, has great intelligence. and his do
ninion affords the best augury for the
possible civilization of Africa.
LONDON, Nov. 1.-THE note OF he
Vatican in reply to that of Spain. treats
he Spanish question from standpoint
# religion, and the principles OF the
which it says must not be
departed from. The Vatican does not
lesire to embarass the new Spanish
government, it particularly wishes to
assist it, but only by such means -
would be truly efacacious, and which
would not permit the rupture OF that
sacred tie which has always been the
glory Of Spain. Religious unity, which
it is now sought to bsnish, cam
not impede the developement Of civili-
Zations. bnt ia On tho coukrarv ita true
