tions, residents of foreign ports. OF the
total number on board sixty were colored
The only white persons on board besides
the passengers were the officers
Agent Forget said this morning that
from the latest reports he had received
It was his opinion that the boat actually
foundered.
He. was hopeful that more of the crew
and passengers had been saved. He
thought that Mrs. Juan de Dios Tejada
and her children had probably been wash
ed overheard or had died of starvation
Captain Rives, the master of the
schooner FIilda, which saved the quar-
tette of survivors, is the hero of the
hour, and an official connected with the
French Consulate today said that in all
probability the French Government would
reward the skipper and his crew for their
heroism in the matter.
