OTTAWA, Ont, May 31.-Details have
reached this city Of a terrible accident
which occurred on the Spanish river by
which thirty-three men lost their lives.
The victims were lumbermen. They had
encamped for the night on q crib OF
square timber moored to shore near the
head Of the rapids, which at this point are
very precipitous and rocky. All had gone
to sleep, without leaving q Waterman Ia
guard the crib.
Somehow during the night the crib
broke its moorings and carried its cargo
of sleeping men, all unmindful of their
fate, into the surgins waters below. The
crib was broken to pieces on the rocks
and not q man escaped to tell the tale.
The Spanish river flows into the north
channel Of Lake Huron at point north
of Manitoulin island. Near its mouth is
q small hamlet Of perhaps 1OO inhabitants,
situated on the Sioux branch Of the Cana
dian Pacific railway. The entire country
roundabout is q numbering diitrict.

SAN FRANCISCO. May 3l.-Little News
has been received in the city regarding
the wreck of the unfortunate Colima- The
only intelligence which has come is Of q
more cheering character than contained
in previous dispatches, and the fears of
the anxiously waiting friends of the un.
fortunate passengers have been replaced
by feeling of uncertainty not un,nixed
with hope. Early in the day the Pacific
Steamship company received from its
agents at Manzanillo the bare announce.
ment that the Colima had foundered at
lea, fifty miles from Manzanillo, May "a,
at IL H. IN. this should probably he II p.
NJ. }, and that n vessel, likely the San
Juan, had been sent to her assistance.
Subsequently Lewis r. Brewer, a Guate-
mala planter whose wife and three child.
rem were passengers on the Colima, re-
ceived the following message in response
to his Geographic appeals for informa-
ton regarding his loved ones:
"MANZANILLo. May 81, $3.50 a m.-Your
wife and children have not yet appeared,
but the shipwrecked passengers arc being
continually picked up from boats"
Waiting Gro wds Grow More Hopeful.
No signature is attached to the mes.
sage, presumably to avoid expense. As
soon as the telegram was translated Mr..
Brewer gave out copies, which were
posted on hotel and on newspaper bulle-
tin boards, which were soon surrounded
by crowds, sanguine that previous &C.
counts Of the drowning and death and
disaster had been exaggerated, and that
further advices would announce that all
the passengers and crew had been saved.
No other news came for the waiting
crowds, however. AL the steamship
officials are confident that the loss of life
has been small.
Views OF the Steamship Omcials.
They think the fact that the passengers
in the boat picked up represents equally
in numbers the cabin and steerage passen.
gers, and that it was manned by several
Of the crew, proved that the captain was
in full control Of the passengers and sail
ors, and that there was no panic on board.
Late in the afternoon it was reported the
Pacific Mail had received a message an
nouncing the landing Of two cabin pas.
sengers in a small boat. This was denied
at the office, where 1t was stated that
nothing of other survivors would be
heard until the return to Manzanillo OF
the Jan Juan from her searching tour.

SAN FRANCISCO, May 3l.--At 10 o'clock
last night the Pacific Mail Steamship
company received the following telegram
from its agent at Manznnillo: Having
received news that the people can be saved
near the mouth Of a river fifty miles
south Of here. q steamer has been sent
with the personnel Of this agency. Will
wire further particulars. The Colima
cannot be afloated again. She is q total
loss. ARNOLD, VCHEL & Co."
This is the latest received.
SAN FRANCIso, May 3I.-As further
particulars are being received concerning
the Colima disaster the outlook for the
passengers and crew not already reported
saved is very poor. The Pacific mail last
night received the following dispatch
from its agent at Manzanillo:
"Colima foundered, going down astern,
sinking entirely in ten minutes. No
strong wind, only a heavy swell. The
swell caught the Mexican schooners jose
flnna and Albinma and the American
schooner Hayes. The captains Of these
schooners report swells only. entering
here for safety. Following is correct

mond and Neral. Have sent q steamer to

Company Loses all Hope.
A later dispatch reads: The Collin a
sank in $50 fathoms. The steamer we
sent last night found nobody alive. Three
cabin passengers and two sailors got
ashore at Coahuayana. Until now twenty.
six persons are saved Tho Pacific Mail
officers now admit that there is hardly
any chance of the other passengers being
saved. Tho fact that the steamer sank
in ten minutes would indicate that only
a few OF the people on board the steam
ship got away.

WASHINGTON, JAN 20 ARRANGEMENTS

mitteet on Pacific railways will lead the
debate for his bill, while Mr. Boatner Of
Louisiana, who made the minority re-
port against it, will control the time
OF the opposition. The opponents Of the
/. bill 90 desire more time, as they assert that
the Y more thoroughly it is discussed, the
better the chance for defeating it will
become. The four Democratic members
from California are deyoting most Of
their time to their campaign against the
plan for extending the debts of the Cen
trail and Union Pacific. They concede
that the prospect is that the bill will
pass by safe majority, but say that
this is because members have not studied
