HOPES ARE BLASTED
No Longer Any Doubt as to
the Fate of the Cruiser
Reina Regente.
DISCOVERED BY ALFONSO XII
Which Has Returned With Div.
erS to Recover Bodies of

CADIZ, March 20. - The Spanish
cru ser Alfonso XII has returned here
after search for the missing cruiser
Reina Regente and reports having
found the latter vessel sunk near Bajo
Acientaos, not far from the straits Of
Gibraltar. The Alfonso XII has re-
turned to the scene of the wreckers
with number Of divers and diving ap-
pliances in order to recover the crew Of
the sunken warship.
The Reina Regente was reported
missing on March 13. She had just con-
veyed from Cadiz to Tangier the re-
turning Moorish mission to Spain. The
cruiser left Tangiet on March 10 for
Cadiz and her whereabouts have not

STOLE GOLD AND SILVER.
Shortage of $3.50, 900 Discovered at the Car
son (Nev.) Mint.


son (Nev.) Mint.
CARSON, New, March 2O-Andrew
Mason, Inspector Of the mint and super
intendent Of the New York assay de-
partment, has been in Carson for the
past week inspecting affairs at the
United States mint. An article in The
Tribune to the effect has given rise to
fulnors that something was wrong at
the mint, as heretofore the presence Of
government inspectors had been known
to the public on the day Of arrival. The
fact of so much secrecy caused ugly ru
mors, and it was later learned from
Hirsh Harris, nlelter and refner, that
shortage had been discovered month
ago. 1t was learned that something
over $S0,000 had mysteriously disap-
peared and that five cleanups, which
were made i'll quick succession as it was
thought some clerical error had been
made, failed to reveal the cause of the
shortage. Refined gold and silver to
that amount has disappeared and In
spector Mason expects to clear up the
mystery in a day or two. Mr.. Harris
asserted the reason so much secrecy was
observed was that it was not deemed
advisable to give the matter publicity,
as that might prevent the recovery Of
the loss. No direct charges have been
made as yet.

But Wanted Her to
HeaVe To.

HAVANA, March 20.-The name of
the Spanish warship that fired Oh the
American vessel Allianca is now known
1t is the Conde de Venadito. The fact
became public when the captain Of the
cruiser reported that he had tried to
stop Il strange steamer and had opened
fire on her, when she had persisted in
proceeding on her course. According
to the story Of the Conde de Venaditos

shaping her course to the northeast
The cruiser signalled her and the
steamer replied by raising the American
flag. The cruiser again signalled the
steamer to stop, but without effect. As
the steamer proceeded at full speed the
cruiser first fired two blank shots and
then two solid shot
Didn't Want to Hit Her.
The commander claims that he did
not desire to hit the steamer, but that
he fired the shots merely to cause her to
he;ve-to. He asserts that the steamer
| was but q mile and Il half off the coast
When the firing occurred. The authori-
ties here have ordered Il full inquiry to
! be made into the commanders acts. 1t
is reported here that the Allianca car
ried 24,OO0 rifles south on her trip before

| ported that there was landed Oh the
eastern snore OF the island some men
who We're passengers on the Allianca.
These men, it is reported, were taken
off the Alliance i'll fishing smacks, the
night preceding the firing.
| The Infanta Isabel is all exact count
erpart OF the Conde de Venadito which
is named us the vessel which fired on
the Allianca. The Venadito is an iron,
bark rugged gunboat OF comparatively
modern design, having been launched
i'll 1883. She is one Of six laid down on

Gresham and Assistants Have Nothing to
Say of the Allianca Affair.
WASHINGTON, March 20.-An inpene-
tlable mystery surrounds the negotia-
tions between the state department. and
the Spanish government on the Allianca
affair. 1t seems to be the impression of
the officials Of the state department.,
from the secretary down, that in the
present state Of excited public feeling in
the country, better progress can be
made toward peaceable settlement Of
the question by keeping the various
notes secret than by giving publicity to
them before il conclusion has been
reached. Therefore, the only response
to definite inquiries that can be obtained
is Il positive refusal to discuss the sub
ject i'll any aspect, and whether Or not
any action has yet been taken by the
Spanish government in the direction of
issuing instructions to it's naval officers
to refrain from further interference
with American shipping will probably
be learned first from Havana, from
which point the orders will be distrib-
uted.
