was Wrecked at East Cape Arrive in
Quebec-Their Story of the Wreck.

arrived here with the fourth engineer, two
seamen and ten cattle men of the i'll fated
steamer Circe, which was wrecked at East

were on deck. A vigilant lookout was
being kept, but notwithstanding this the
steamer struck at Ills p. m. She began
to make water fast. The most perfect dis
clpllne was maintained on board and there
was not the slightest excitement or confu-
sion. captain Jennings therefore decided
to land the cattlemen and most of the
crew, the latter to return to the steamer
should the weather permit. The boats
were accordingly got out and all on board
except the captain, the first and second
engineers, the chief steward and storeman
got into them. After the boats left the
ship the wind increased considerably
and it was impossible to land,
as the breakers were dashing high
upon the rocks. When about an
hour had been spent in rowing around
for a landing a schooner was dis
covered some distance off. She was hailed
by those in the boats and bore down to
them, taking all hands on board and land |
ing them at Fox Bay. From there the
men proceeded to Heath Point on foot On |
arriving there they found that the wind |
had suddenly increased to a heavy gale, |
and that the Gree had become total |

with him having been drowned. ALI the |

Point until the steamer Alcides passed out |
when majority of the crew went aboard |
If her and proceeded to Glasgow. The |
men who were brought up to Quebec re-
NAMED at Heath Point until Friday morn
ng when they were taken on board by the |

NEW YORK, July PA Coquimbo,
Chill, special says that the junta's troops
are massing at Huasco and it is expected
they will soon march to Coquimbo and
battle with Bslmacedas forces. The con-
gressional fleet will operate in the com
bined attack that is to be made upon the
governments stronghold.
The insurgents warships Amazones,
Aconcagua, Cochrane and Esmeralda have
again been seen a short distance from Co.
quimbo, and are evidently waiting for the
land forces to reach the city before open
ing fire. Balmaceda's troops have been
reinforced by men brought from Valparai-
so on government transports and 10000
men are now in the city. 1t is said the
insurgents troops are about as numerous.
1t is not likely that the insurgent fleet
will have it all their own way in making
the attack. The best ships in the gov
eminent service are now on their way
north to engage their attention so as to
let the land forces have it out by them

FOREIGN NOTES OF INTEREST

The Discussion of the Prisons Vote
in the House of Commons-Henry
John Atkinson Expelled For One
Week From the House.
LONDON, July 27.-In the house of com
mons to-day when the prisons vote was
under discussion Mr.. Parnell claimed that
certain convicts under life sentences, espe-
cially John Daily, should be granted am
nesty or else treated as political prisoners.
Mr.. Parnell said it was grave blot on the
nation to treat men like Egan and DAILY as
ordinary criminals and added that in the
special case of Daily there was every reason
to believe that he was not guilty of the
charge of being in possession of dynamite
with the intent to cause an explosion.
Sir William Vernon Harcourt opposed
any relaxation of the sentence passed up
on John DAILY, and Mr.. John Redmond
urged that further inquiry into Days case
would prove that the prisoner referred to
was the victim of conspiracy upon the
part of Irish police agents.
Mr. Henry Matthews, the home secre-
tary, replied that the alleged proofs of in
nocence had been examined and found to
be inventions and, consequently, the SEN
tence must stand.
During the course of the discussion
Henry John Atkinson, member of parlia-
ment for Boston, was expelled from the
house for week for charging the speaker
with abuse of power in placing on the
records of the house that he (Atkinson) had
frivolously challenged the accuracy of
divisions. As this expulsion includes en-
forced absence from the precincts of par
lament Mr.. Atkinson was obliged to sub
nit and take eight American gentlemen,
whom he had invited to dine with him at
the house of commons, to the Union club.
