THE MISSING srEAMEr

THE MISSING STEAMER.
GLASGOW, May 1.-THE underwriters
will lose e30, 600 II the steamer State of
Florida proves to be lost. The ship
which signaled the City of Rome was
full rugged vessel English built, but
displayed no national flag. After the
signal she proceeded westward slowly
Five other selling vessels were sighted
at the same time.
Later-It Is no longer doubted that
the ship which signaled the City of
Rome saved some If not all aboard the
State of Florida. 1t is cal
culated the disaster occurred
on the 18th ult., at which period the
wind was blowing from the east, and
the boats would drift until rescued.
They must have be, n
launched, because they were
SO fixed they would not
otherwise have floated. The fact that
the boats were without gears or oars Is
regarded favorably, as indicating that
the rescued ship secured the
oars and gear, and allowed
the boats to drift away. One is a life
boat and the other small new
boat not numbered. The owners are
of the opinion that the State OF Florl-
da struck an iceberg, as the captain Of
the State of Pennsylvania reports ice
in the region in which
the State of Florida is supposed to have
been Mt the time of the disaster. The
dynamite theory is not received with
any favor. The inventory shows that
the cargo was shipped by two
well-known firms, and all packages
aboard are accounted for, The detec.
tives reported to be awaiting the ar
rival of the State Of Florida were
seeking to arrest an embezzler sup
posed to be on the vessel. News con-
corning the fate of the missing vessel
is awaited hom America, where
it is supposed those who
have been rescued will be
landed. The captain of the City Of
Rome explains that when the
ship displayed signals there
was little snow, and the flags
showed badly and were difficult t.
read. The City of Rome passed thu
ship rapidly without replying to thu
