fANKEE TARS DROWNED
The Torpedo Cruiser Condell
Makes a Fatal Mistake.

Balmaceda's warship Dfistook tho Amer

blew Her Up with a Torpedo-Five Of
Our Sailors Were Lost
New YORK, July o. TheWorlds special
from Callao, Peru, says: The famous old
man-of-war Pensacola, of the United States
navy, has Just arrived here after an excit-
ing run along the Chilian coast, and send
you the first news Of thrilling accident
at africa, Chilli, by which five sailors Of the
Pensacola lost their lives The steam
launch belonging TO the man .of-war was
blown up in the harbor Of africa by the
Chilian torpedo boat Condell and every
man on board killed
List OF the Dead.
The list Of dead includes:

Lifted out of tho water.
The attack took place on the evening OF
June |. The Condell is one Of Balmaceda's
torpedo cruisers from the port Of Santiago,
and was on the lookout for the ships Of
the insurgents. She stole into the harbor
OF africa about p m There was a heavy
fog and objects at distance Of 100 yards
could not be diseerned with any distinct
ness. The steam launch had left the Pen
sacola on the regular evening trip to the
shore, and was making her way slowly
when suddenly those on the man-of-war
saw the little boat lifted completely out
Of the water, as if a subterranean monster
had risen up under the launch and tossed
it in the air.
sank to Rise No More.
There was the dull echo of a half smoth.
cred explosion, and then wreckage was
scattered in every direction. Not a sound
Of human voice was heard. The quiet
that followed told plainly that the FIVE
men aboard the launch had either been
killed outright or so manned as to be una
BILE to make their condition known.
IL Was ~ serions Mistake.
The search light OF the Pensacola was
brought into play and at the same instant
orders were given TO lower the boats
When the broad rays OF the flash light
nude speeters against the great curtain Of
fog the C0ndell was discovered only a
short distance away
The Chilian cruiser had mistaken the
launch for an insurgent boat and had used
a torpedo with deadly effect. There was
intense excitement aboard both vessels for
the next twenty minutes. Signaling con
tnued between the man-of-war aud the
/ torpedo boat for some time.
The chIiinns ApoIogixed.
When the situation OF affairs became
known on the Condell her commander
dipped his colors and sent his chief officer
aboard the Pensacola. IL then became
known that the explosion OF the torpedo
was stupid blunder on the part OF the
cruiser. Such apologies as could be offered
were made, but the feeling among the
comrades of the dead sailors was very
bitter. The bodies were not recovered.

They Turned Their Search Lights on
During a Battle.
NEW YORK, July pa gentleman in
this city. with extensive business in
terests in South America, has received
letter from correspondent ia Santiago
dated June 10. Matters, II says, have as
sumed better aspect for tho government.
The enemy has allowed them to prepare
and thoroughly equip its army, and now,
instead Of 10000 raw" recruits, the gov
ernment has tho same number Of thor
oughly disciplined men.
1t is stated that six prominent citizens
of CaldePa were put to death because IL
was said they were in the plot to blow uB
the Blanco Encalado. Several prominent
persons are involved in the recent at
tempted poisoning Of the president and
his cabinet. A young English woman is
said TO have been engaged in the plot. She
was to have been the attraction and by
her wiles was to have induced the govern
ment officials to partake Of wine supper
at her house
The Condsll and Imperial have Just ar
rived from an expedition to the north
They bombarded Iquique, captured TAltal
and pursued the O'Higgins, but the latter
managed TO escape. The government ves-
sells arrived at Iquique and fouAd most Of
the insurgent feet in the harbor. The
United States steamers Baltimore, San
Francisco and Pensacola were also in the
bay. As soon as the Condell began to fire
the American men-of-war turned on their
search lights and kept them open during
the time the fotilla was in the bay. In
spite of all the hotiila did the insurgent
vessels did not come out. The action OF
the American admiral in turning on the
search lights Of his vessels so that the gov
ernment cruisers were illumined, thus
showing the insurgents where the enemy
was, IS severely commented upon here as
showing that the Americans are violating
the law by protecting the rebels.
