HAVANA. Oct. 1.-Following close up
on the loss of the Spanish cruiser Bar
castegui, wbick was sunk in collision wit b
the Spanish merchant steamer Mortera,
off Moro Castle, ar the entrance of this
harbor at midnight on September 1S, re-
sultinE in the drowning OF Admiral Del
gade Parejo, commander-in-chief OF the
Spanish naval forces in Cuban waters,
and 46 men, comes the news o the wreck
and probably total loss OF the Spanish
wsrship Cristobal Colon. a second lass
cruiser OF about 1900 tons displacement,
and 160 horsepower.
The Cristobal Colon formed part OF the
feet of Spanish warships detailed TO
watch the coast OF Cuba.in order to pre-
vent the landing of flibustering expedi'
tions from the United States and else
where The cruiser carried four 12-centi-
metre Hontoria guns; two seventeenth
meter guns, and two rapid fire guns.
Her crew is estimated TO have mum bered
about 2 0 officers and men.
The station OF the Chrlstobal Colon was
the waters about Cape Antoine of the
western extremity of the Island of Cuba,
her commander having particular in
stuctions TO watch the Gulf of Correntes
and Guadiana, south and north OF Cape
Antonio. The disaster occurred of Colo
RADIO Point, In the Gulf of Guadiana,
south OF the towr~sof Mantua, in the
province OF Pinar Del Rio, near which
territory Havana IL Is situated.
The exact details of the disaster have
not yet been made known, but so far as
can be gathered, the factes are as follows:
The Christobal Colon appears to have
encountered severe weather off Cape An
tonic and TO have put into the Gulf of
Guadiana for shelter. There she tried TO
ride out the fierce gales and heavy seas,
but was slowly driven TO Colorado Point,
on which jutting there is a dangerous
rock known at the Colorado Reef When
the commander of the cruisesr saw that
he could not make headway againt the
storm, he attempted to anchor but the
anchors would not head and the cruiser
was driven ashore.
She ran ashore late last night or early
this morning, in most dangerous po-
sitton and with heavy sea running.
done to save the cruiser, but she was
finally abandoned this morning n help
less wreck, pounding herself slowly to
pieces on the Colorado reef. Some of the
crew swan ashore; Others reached land
by making use Of wreckage, but all the
crew, officers and men were saved by one
means or other. The commander Of the
Cristobei Colon reached Mantua during
the day with the majority of the crew
and nearly all the remainder are expected
there before night. When questioned
regarding the disaster, the Spanish cap
tain would only say that the Cristobel
Colon was driven ashore on the Colorado
reef owing to the violence OF the cyclone,
and that II is proable that she will prove /
a total loss. Efforts. however, will be |
made TO save her guns and some other |
things
