bO,allen the country through the

many OF her officers and crew. The
lack Of details, caused By the re-

allows of no expre ssion of definite

dent are eagerly awaited. 1t is not
believed that a full story can be OBJ
tanned until the arrival at Malta of
the Camperdown which ran into the
Victoria, or some other vessel be-
longing to the British MediteIra-
mean squadron, conveying the sur
vivors from the Victoria. A special
staff Of officials was kept on duty
all night at tie admiralty office at
Whitehall for the purpose of receiv-
ing any official dispatches that
ght arrive. The only information
received, however, Was the names Of
those who hsd bsen saved, and that
only came to hand at half
