Belief That the Vessel and All ON
Board Have Been Lost.
NEW YORK, Feb. 4.-Captain Ander-
son of the Tank steamer Phosphor,
which got into port to-day after a
twenty days trip from Shields, told a
story that probably accounts for the
non-arrival in England, of the British
steamer Wildfower, which left Phila-
delphia for Rouen, France, on December
11th last, and has never been heard of
since. The vessel had ], 100000 gallons
of petroleum on board.
Captain Anderson says that just be-
fore he sailed from Shields on January
10Th he heard story that convinced
him that the Wildflower had made her
last voyage. 1t was this:
The steamship Loeb Etive, from New
York December 24th for Cork, reported
on her arrival there January Sth that

the coast of Ireland on January 9th
the crew saw a sudden glare in the sky.
AS far as the eye could see to the west
ward the sky was a vivid red for a mo-
ment and then it died out slowly until,
in half hour, the sea was again in
darkness. A few seconds after the first
glare a duh roar like the discharge Of
a heavy gun made the ship vibrate and
rock. When Captain Anderson found
that the Wildfower had not yet made
port he became convinced that the flare
up was the explosion of the oil in the
Wildfiower's tanks. There were twenty
nine men on the missing vessel She was

VICTORY PoR THE REBELS.
Spanish Troops Defeated In Battle
With Insurgents.

WIN
HAVANA, Feb. 4 From a Staff Cor
respondent of the United Press).-The
details of fight yesterday between the
troops under General Luque and the
rebels under Antonio Maceo have been
received here. General Luque reports
that the battle occurred in and near the
town of Paso Real, province of Pinar
del Rio. Maceo was in chief command
of the insurgents, his subordinate COM
manders being Miro, Sayas, Chileno
and Meyer.
When it was learned that the rebels
were in Paso Real, General Luque gave
orders for the troops to advance and at
tack the place. The soldiers entered
the town by the main street, and found
the rebels occupying the side streets
and the houses. A CALLING fire was di-
rected against the troops from the
street, houses and roofs, but the rebels
were finally driven to the eastern part
of the town, where they attempted to
make a stand. In this they were unsuc-
cessful, and they then retreated outside
the town.
The troops advanced upon them, and
found over a thousand rebels forming
a line of battle in an open space. AS the
Spaniards moved forward they deliv
cred volley after volley as they moved
from position to position. The rebel
cavalry charged the troops with great
valor, and, despite the heavy fire di-
rected against them, even reached the
bayonets of the troops. The latter re-
ceived the first charge while forming
in line, but the second charge was re-
oeived by the troops in circular groups.
General Luque says the troops sus-
tained no machete wounds, while a
number of rebels We're wounded by bay
onets. The troops finally dispersed, the
rebels pursuing them until darkness
set in.
The insurgents lost sixty-two killed,
while 200 of them are believed to have
been wounded General Luque was
shot through the right leg. Major Jose
Ruiz Perez of the regular army and
Major Louis Lopez Majorez of the civil
guards were also wounded. Major Perez
has since died. In addition to these, one
Captain, one Lieutenant and thirty sol
diers were wounded. One of the wound
ed privates died shortly after the bat
tie. ]. FRANK CLARKE.
GENERAL CAMPOS AT MADRID.
MADRID, Feb. General Campos
arrived here at 10:40 o'clock this even
ing. Most of the Ministers and a num-
ber of men prominent in political life
met him at the station, and he was
given a cordial welcome. Quite crowd
assembled outside the station, and when
General Campos appeared he was
cheered. There was some hooting and
whistling as he drove to his residence,
but the gendarmes were vigilant and
drove off those who attempted to insult
General Campos. Some of the more per-
sistent hooters were arrested. One es-
capped from his captors and attempted
to run away. The gendarmes fired twice
at him and killed him.
A crowd gathered at the Valladolid
railway station, and when the train
arrived on which General Campos was
travelling to Madrid some of the assem-
blage hooted at him. A few of the crowd
cheered, but it was evident that popular
feeling was against him for his failure
to suppress the insurrection. A number
of police were sent to the station, and
some of the hooters were arrested.

LORD DUNRAVEN.
He Gets Little sympathy From the

LONDON, Feb. 4.-The Chronicle
will tomorrow say that the Prince of
Wales. who is Commodore of the Royal
Yacht Squadron has earnestly coun-
seled Lord Dunraven to keep we'll in
mind the desirability of promoting
friendship between the representatives
of sports and peoples. The Prince con-
siders that the terms of the finding Of
the committee of inquiry of the New
York Yacht Club offer great encour-
agement in this direction. There is
reason to believe that action leading to
a happy ending of the trouble will
shortly be taken. Lord Dunraven, it
is said, visited the Prince of Wales at
Sandringham for the purpose of ask
ing his advice as to the course he should
pursue in view Of the verdict of the
committee which investigated the
charges he made against the Defender
syndicate.
