GALVESTON. TEXAS, Nov. II. - The
steamer Buckthorn was dispatched out
side at 8 yesterday in search OF the MISS
ing passengers and crew of the City of
Waco. She will cruise west sixty miles
along the coast before returning. Capt.
j. u. Sawyer, agent OF the Mallory line,
also started out on board of one Of his
pilot boats in search OF the missing
boats. The only hopes for the safety of
the passengers and crew are based on
the statement of Captain Jadine, of the
steamer Buckthorn, who saw a foremast
while out yesterday.
The report says The end of the mast
was burned off apparently between the
decks, or very CLOSE below the floor or
upper deck, which indicates that the
fire was below decks, in which case the
fire may have been burning for some
time and given the officers, crew and
passengers ample time co have left the
ship before the flames reached the upper
decks and were discovered by other
vessels. 1t is thought the passengers
and crew may have escaped in the dark
ness on board Of the ships small boats
before the fire on board was seen from
the Fusuynia and steamship San Mar
cos.

with the sea about thirty or forty miles
westward before the wind changed to
the northwest. Another statement,
which would appear to confirm the loca-
tion of the fire, is that the City of Waco
had a small wooden case, or house, built
around her foremast, wherein matches,
&C., were stored. This casing reached
up, on the mast, four feet; and above the
top of it the mast was grained, while
below it was only painted white. The
foremast was evidently burned off below
the deck.
On the upper deck forward large
quantities of oil were stored, and as
soon as the flames reached this the en-
| tire upper portion of the vessel was
swept by the flames. Nothing wrong
was discovered with the unfortunate
ship until she was seen wrapped In a
sheet of flame. Nothing was seen of her
boats and passengers and crew.
The officers OF the San Marcos, a
steamship lying In the feet, state that
the fire was first discovered about two
O'Clock.
| Tie return of the pilot-boat and the
| steamer are anXiously looked for. 1t is
thought they will be In this morning.

cal Purveyor of the United States Army,
who soon made his appearance, as did
also Drs. Magruder and Ashford and sew

as medical attendant by Mr.. Wilson's
express desire. The Vice President is
suffering from an irritation of the spinal
column, causing very. severe pain be-
tween the shoulders, but is buoyant and
hopeful in spirit Notwithstanding. The
cause of this severe attack is said to
have been work and indigestion, but as
there is no conditions of an increase of

for the past year and a half. and no
marked brain lesion, his recovery is ex-
