Washington, June 24.-An account Of
the wreck of the CoIula has reached
fine state department from United
States Consul Eugene Battle at
Acapulco, Mexico. dated June S. He
transmits the statement of Mr.. Chill
berg. corroborated by three other pas
sangers. and two. seamen that the
wind and the heavy sea was the cause
of the wreck and probably leak II
the vessel. Twenty-one persons were
picked up by the San Juan and ten
who went ashore on life RATS syere
taken care of by the governor Of Co
lima. Two Mexican steamers rendered
prompt service. One hundred and
sixty-five persons were lost and thirty
one were saved and the consul believes
that but little more of the missing will
ever be known.
Mr.. Ch:lberg. of Seattle, says that
when about forty miles from port and
ten to fifteen miles from shore, there
came a terrible wind So no one %Ould
stay on deck. He thinks the officers
were trying to put the ship st5ou1 to
return to port when she was struck
by a heavy swell, at a critical time
with such force that she capsized and
sunk in ten minutes IL 150 fathOmS OF
water. ChllherS was washed oVSf-
board, caught a life raft with four
others and got ashore after being II
the water thirty-three hours. &c
thinks the steamer sprung a leak. as
she listed more and more before the
accident and never seemed to recover
herself in the least. One of the RATS
had eight men on it, but the sea vas
so rough that the RATS made lhree
complete revolutions, losing man
every time, leaving five who made
shore. The people ashore received them
with the greatest kindness, giving them
food, water and the best accommoda-
tons in their humble abodes. At Co
lima the governor provided them with
food and clothing and gave them
transportation to Manzanillo. Consul
Battle suggests that the state depart
ment recognize in some YTay the good
offices rendered by the governor of
Santa Cruz in behalf of the distressed
American citize2S.

cess than the one held ny the himet-

Disastrous Sunday Fire In Newark.

NEWARK, N. j., Aug. 1e-The tiercest
fire the department Of this city has had to
contend with in many years, with the
possible exception of the big grain fire at
the Ballentyne brewery couple of
months ago, broke out in the plant Of the
Central Stamping company yesterday

Stamping company's plant was ON New
Jersey Railroad avenue and covered ten
city lots on that street. From this branched
another building, five stories high and
seventy-flve feet wide, running through
the block to Liberty street. From this
building there was a wing Of the same
size, extending from the middle of the
block through to East Fair street. On
the south side Of the maip building on tho
avenue were five three story brick build
ings, and on the north was new two
story brick structure. All these were to-
tally destroyed, The loss to tho Central
Stamping company is estimated by State
Senator Ketcham, treasurer of the COM
pany, at upwards Of $500, 900. The other
losses will aggregate $4,000.
