NINE SAILORS PERISH.
Loss Of the Schooner Arcana in
the Bay of Fundy.
Two Portland Men Among the Lost.

a despatch from st. John, n. B.. says: "a
telephone message yesterday morning from st.
Martins, thirty miles from here. states that the
American three-masted schooner Arcana,
Capt, Holmes, formerly the Jefferson Borden,
from Portland for Bear River, N. s., to load
lumber for the West Indies, went ashore on
Quaco Reef, at 2 o'clock Wednesday afternoon,
and became total wreck. Four of the crew
reached land, but three died from cold and ex-
posure, while the survivor is in bad condi-
tion and it is feared he cannot live.
Wednesday was terrible day in the Bay of
Fundy. It showed all day sand blew a perfect
gale. The thermometer at times dropped as
low as zoe below zero. The point at which the
wreck occurred is the most exposed and dan
gerous in the Bay, and the suferings of the
shipwrecked mariners must have been intense.
LATER.
A despatch from st. John, N. B., states that
owing to the terrific snow storm that has pre-
vailed the past few days, and to the fact that
there is no telegraphic communication with
st. Martins, only few particulars concerning
the wreck OF the Arcana, are available SO far.
The sufferings of the crew must have been in
sense, for Of the ten men who manned the yes
sell but one survives, and he is in pitt able
condition from GOLD, hunger and exposure.
The name of the survivor is Patrick Lyons,
and no belongs to st. Stephen, N. B. Three
OF the crew crawled on to the rocks, but they
were so benumbed that they died before assist
ance could reach them. Their bodies were re-
covered. The names of the crew who perish
ed are, SO far as the survivor knows, as fol-
lows: Capt. Holiness first mate, name un-
known; second mate O'Neil: pilot, of Port
land, Me-, name unknown; cook, also un-
known: seaman John Wild of Nova Scotia;
Lewis Gain of Portland, Me-. a Dane by the
name of Peter, and a Frenchman known as
Charley. Not a vestige of the vessel remains;
every stick of it has been smashed into kind
ling wood by the relentless waves. 1t would
be difficult to find wilder or more dangerous
spot in the Bay OF Fundy than Quaco Reef.
More than once it has proved the destruction
OF valuable ships and more valuable lives. At
low tide the rocks are laid bare for almost
mile from the mainland, and the tide sweep
ing around the point at the rate OF seven miles
an hour, makes It place to be avoided by the
careful mariner.

CONGO CONFERENCE.
Information Concerning she Participa-
tion of the United States.

hehA Oh AAC GHAsCO SAhtCsa
WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.--In response to the
House resolution calling for information re-
specting participation of the United States in
the Congo conference the President to-day
sent TO the House report submitted by the
Secretary OF State. FThe Secretory says the
conference was proposed by the German govern
ment in connection with that of France in the
interest OF all nations engaged in commerce
with the Congo region and to arrange in a
spirit OF mutual good understanding condi-
tions which would tend to assure the develop
ment OF that commerce and prevent conflicts
and Misunderstanding. SIT being establish
ed, the Secretary says, "that the conference
was not to have plenipotentisry functions no
special credentials were needed to enable Mr..
Aasson to attend as delegate OF this govern
meat, he being already accredited as minister
to an imperial court. Tne instructions sent to
Mr.. kasson we're brief but precise as to the ex-
clusion OF questions OF territorial jurisdiction.
Henry s. Sanford whose relations to the inter-
national association representing the free states
OF the Congo, the Secretary says, seemed to fit
him Tor the work, and he was appointed as
sociate delegate on behalf of the United States,
his course TO be governed by the instructions
sent to Messrs. Kasson and Sanford
nave confined their propositions
to matters affecting commercial intercourse
with the whole region, freedom of navigation
OF its rivers and land Communications between
coasts and seperate districts of the interior
without advancing any plan affecting the po-
ltIcal tenure of diverse territory. Henry M.
Stan ley the secretary, says was not delegated
to represent the United States and the impres-
sion that he had been probably originated with
the fact that Mr.. Stanley was personally intro
duced to the conference by Mr.. Kassan.
The course Of Mr.. kasson has been perfectly
satisfactory to the Secretary, who asserts that
the PRINCIPLES which the conference is dIscuss-
ing with respect to Africa, are not at variance
with those which tho United States have main
tanned In respect to the American continent.
and this government in taking part in the
Congo Conference has not departed from its
traditional policy.
