SHIP WENT DOWN.
The Loss of the billiard off the Coast
OF Central america Has Been
Confirmed.
She Went Down in o Gale and of the
Sixty Men on Board Not One
Was Saved.
Men We're Being Conveyed From
Greyt0wn to Bluetields by a
Navigation Company.

CINCINNATI, Feb. IA special to
The Commercial Gazette from New
Orleans says: The rumor Prevailing
here that the steamer Willard, belong
ing to the Nicaragua Navigation COM
pany, having on board 90 men, had
been lost off the Nicaragua coast a week
ago, has been confirmed. Not a mar Of
those on board the vessel survived to
tell the story. A reporter met an Eng
lish gentleman in the st. Charles hotel,
who is going to Nicaragua in the morn
ing and who has interests in that sec
ton. He has received word from Grey
town confirming the rumor of the lost
vessel. This authority said a cable was
sent to London telling OF the loss and
the watery grave found by all on board.
The cable Was sent to a mar in London
who is interested in the Nicaragua
Navigation company, in the service Of
which was the Inflated vessel, with the
60 men on board.
The Willard was a tug of 20 tons bur-
den, commanded by Captain Joe
Thompson, and was making its way
with the 60 men from Greytown to
Bluefields, where they were to do some
work for the navigation company. Sew
eral weeks elapsed and no news was re-
ceived that the vessel had arrived. Ru-
mors were circulated that it had gone
down in the Caribbean sea, and that all
on the ship were lost in the squat which
some time ago blew terrifically across
that body of dangerous waters. While
the confirmation of the loss of the ship
is made in the dispatch forwarded to
London, no particulars could be ascer-
tanned. It will never be known whether
the vessel Went down in a gale which is
purported to have visited the waters in
which it piled shortly after its departure
from Greyton or whether it sprung a
leak which the men could not stop,
Captain Anderson, the Englishman who
informed the reporter Of the confrma.
ton Of the rumor, said he was &C.
quainted with Captain Thompson and
had seen the vessel, which, he says wa
about 20 tons burden. Whether or moi
any Of the wreckage will be found tt
tell the sad tale is not known.

So the Wilson tariff is sectional meas
ure In favor Of the South, is it3 Let US
see. The Mckinley law gave bonus Of
81 100000 to sugar planters last year.
The treasury report shows that this was
distributed among less than 600 persons,
making an average gift Of $50, 0O0t each
planter. One Louisiana planter received
some 100000. The Wilson bill wipes
out every vestlge Of the sugar bounty
and now the Louisiana sugar planters are
pronouncing In favor OF the Mckinley
bill. That's the way the Wilson bill
favors the South.

Only few days ago that leader of Re-
publicanism, Chauncy M. Depew, for
once laid aside his party prejudices, and
was candid enough to remark:
"As for the financial condition, !
think we have reached the bottom. While
a few set-backs are possible, look for
ward within year or two to an era of
unequaled in the history Of the
country"
Ithardly seems possible that Chauncy
should acknowledge that all this could
happen under a Democratic admlnistra-
ton, and with tariff taxes reduced about
25 per cent.
