LONDON, March 20.-The Times says 1t
is officially informed that Prime Minister
Rosebery's convalescence is much retarded
by lack of sleep. Even a change of air
from London to the country has produced
little effect in this respect, and he is quite
unable TO attend to any but the most ur-
gent business. Edltorlally The Times says
the gravity of the case must be apparent
to every one. The official announcement
that Lord Rosebery Is only able to attend

REINA RECENTE FOUND.
The Spanish Cruiser Sunk Near
I . the Straits of Gibraltar.
THERE is NO TRACE OF HER GREW.

Thrrc Were Four Hundred and Twenty
7 Iieved That Every Soul Perlshed-The
Search for Dead Bodies.
CApIz, March 2o.-The Spanish cruiser
Alfonso XII has returned here after
search for the missing cruiser Roinn Re-
gcnte, and reports having found the latter
vessel sunk near Buio Aceltanos, not far
from the Straits Of Gibraltar. Only twenty
inches of the Raina Regentes masts were
above water
The Alfonso XII has returned to the
scene of the wreck with number of divers
and diving appliances, In order to recover
the bodies of the crew OF the sunken war
ship.
The Reina Regente was reported miss
Ing on March H. She had just conveyed
from Cadiz to Tangier the returning
Moorish mission to Spain. The cruiser
left Tangier on March 10 for Cadlz, and
her whereabouts had not been definitely
asccrtained until yesterday. Pieces of one
of her boats and semaphore flags were re-
ported to have been picked up along tho
shore near Ceuta and Tarifa She carried
crew Of 420 officers and men, and all
hands are believed to have perished
MADRID, March 20.-The positive news
OF the loss of the Spanish cruiser Rcina
Regente which reached here from Cadiz
Immediately after the arrival thsle of the
cruiser Alfonso XII, caused tho greatest
= s1uotion In Madrid aud throughout Spain
The queen regent was deeply distressed.
by her Inajesty's orders thAsacrament has
been exposed night aud day In the royal
chapel from the time thetflrst report Of the
disasterreachsd her, andSby her direction
prayers for the safety of the Rcina Re
genta have been said continuously ever
since
The officials here consider that 1t is still
possible that the officers of the Alfonso
XII are mistaken IN their Identification Of
che wreck as that of the Relna Regente
Scnor Moreu, lately the commander of the
cruiser Conde de Venedito, said in nm in.
terview that he believed that such an OK
pert sailor as the captain of the Reina Re
gente would have quit the dangerous coast
In the vicinity of TaDgier at the first
symptom OF storm.
Theg government probably knows whether
or not the vessel has been lost but is hid
ing the truth until a new ministry shall
have been formed. 1t Is stated that the
search will be continued, but this IL for
Horn hope. The common people are loud
IN their maledictions, which they direct
against the Moorish mission, to convey
which buck to Morocco tho Reiua Regente
was sent to Tangier.
The Correspondence de Espnna is re-
kponsible for the statement that the AL
fonso XII brought to Cadlz the bodies of
thirty men belonging to the Retna Re-
monte
