battered down with their rifles. Then
followed a wild rush to secure food. A
colonel rode up and tried to disperse the
men. He was surrounded in moment

cIamored for bread.
Elsewhere the writer saw 200 soldiers

hull. The Ainsworth got close enough to
the wrecked vessel at one time to see the
body of man dashed to the stern davits
and to discern gold ring on the third
finger OF the left hand. The corpse was
that of a man apparently of medium size,
with dark hair and dark mustache.
This entry concern ing the discovery was
taken from the log of the Ainsworth:
May 5.-Passed the wreck of the sch ooner
General Siglin, at 6 A. NJ. in latitude 50
degrees Is minutes NJ, longitude 135 de-
grees Is minutes w. She was dismantled and
water-logged, floating right side up. The seas
were breaking over her.
There was dead body lashed 10 the stern
davits. There was high sea running, SO it
was impossible for US to board her.
Just where or when the General Siglin
encountered the storm which wrecked
the vessel, is a matter for the widest con-
lecture. Enough is known, however, to
almost preclude the possibility of hope
for the captain and passengers, or single
member of the crew of six shipped from
San Francisco.
Local seafaring men say it is hardly
within the range of possibilities that the
General Siglin was wrecked in the same
storm as that which destroyed the Sama-
ria, which went to pieces off Cape Flat
terry. Captain Crockett is also OF that
opinion.
"She could not have drifted that far"
he observed, ION account of being water
logged. 1t is my opinion that the General
Siglin was lost in the storm which ragged
off Queen Charlotte Islands from March 81
to March %. During those days the wind
blew almost a hurricane, and in fact, we
lost our rudder. The chances are that
the General Siglin met her fate very near
where we sighted her. She could not

the tide.
81 hardly think it possible that the
General Siglin was lost other than in a
storm. She was not run down. I took
particular notice of the vessel to see If
she was cut but she was not, her hull ap-
parenty being intact. When the mast
was carried away it ripped up her deck,
causing the vessel to fill with water.
1--WE went by her twice, and tried hard
to see il the man lashed to the davits was
the master. I was particularly anxious
about this, as Captain Thomas was a

Mad With Hunger.
LONDON, Eng, May 11.-Mailed dis
patches from English reporters continue
to unfold story of disorganization and
neglect in the Greek army. The corre-
spondent of the Daily Mail, under date of
Arta, April 25, relates that the Sixth Regi-
ment when at F'ilippiada received at All
early hour on the morning of The 23d
bread and water for the men. After
ward the regiment marched by easy
stages to the neighborhood of Pentepi-
ghadia, arriving al o'clock in the even
ing. No provisions of any kind arrived
that night. The next morning the men
still had nothing to eat, but they were
ordered to march back to Filippiada. The
poor fellows began 10 retreat, but maay
were unable to keep in the ranks, and the
roadsides were lined with hundreds who
had sunk down from hunger and fatigue.
The Turks, who were only few miles be-
hind, could, If they had advanced, have
annihilated them.
There were no supplies at Filippiada,
and when the writer left on the after
noon of April "a the regiment was still
unfed. Upon reaching Arta the writer
found similar condition of affairs.

the event OF negotiations with Greecs
colIapsing. They seem to indicate that
Turkey is preparing for some bigger foe
or intends to SO strengthen herself in
Europe as to enable her to follow her own
course regardless of the powers. The con-
sensus OF opinion is that the prevalent
war spirit will give the powers as much
trouble to enforce their wishes in Constan-
tinople as they had in Athens.
The dispatch adds that six officers from
Janlna and the army of commandants at
Louios, Phillipada and other stations
have arrived at Constantinople in chains
and under strong escorts. They will be
placed on trial for neglecting their duty
in the face of the enemy.
The Standards Athens correspondent
states that it is reported sighting occurred
to-day at Dhomoko and Almyro.
The Athens correspondent of the Times
says that arrangements now reached have
only in view the cessation OF hostilities
as a preliminary to the conclusion of
peace. No discussion of the terms has
yet been initiated. 1t is hoped that the
diplomats will exert the utmost pressure
on the Porte to obtain an immediate
armistice, as it is feared the diatory
methods of the Porte will again be re-
sorted to with the idea of gaining further
successes and better terms. The report
adds that the Government received tele-
grams that Edhem Pasha is preparing to
attack Smolenski, who is strongly en-
trenched near Surpi.
The Times Constantinople dispatch says
that the representatives of the powers in
that city met to-day. Two lacked instruc-
tions from their governments and con-
sequently there was merely ap exchange
of views, no action being taken.

LONDON, Eng, May 11.-Many specu-
Iations are INDUCED in regarding the
terms of peace that will be imposed by
the powers, but nothing definite as to
their character is known.
The Athens correspondent of the Stand
ard says he learns from good sources that
they will include the re-establishment of
the territorial status which obtained be-
fore the war, some Kind of international
control of Greek finances, and possibly
payment by Greece of small indemnity.
Advices from Vienna state that the
Porte calculates the cost of the war at
$4,000, 900 (Turkish) while he will require
Greece to pay in yearly lnstallments Sc
cured by mortgaging the revenues OF
Thessaly to Turkey. which will raise a
loan thereon. Turkey also, according to
the same advices, claims a rectifcation of
the Thessalian frontier.
According to the Daily News the Greeks
rely upon Great Britain to protect their
interests, and adherents of the Porte are
looking for help from Russia and Ger
many.
a dispatch to the Daily News from
Athens says that the troops in Thessaly
and Epirus were promptly informed of
the pending armistice. The dispatch adds
that it is hoped that the armistice will
calm public excitement and pave the way
for the disbanding of the troops and vol
unteers and heterogeneous elements of the
army, which endanger public peace.
The Daily News Constantinople CORE
spondent teIegraphs that general satisfac-
ton is felt there over the fact that Greece
has applied for mediation. The Turks
wish to treat with Greece directly, and
the decision of the powers to manage the
negotiations is unwelcome.
A dispatch from Athens to the Chroni-
Gle says that during the negotiations pre-
ceding the note of the powers to Greece
the majority of the powers assured Greece
that the terms of peace would favor her.
The writer of the dispatch, on authority
of Colonel Manos and other leaders in
Epirus, reaffirms that the Turks were

The Standard Constantinople dispatch

patch cites as instances of these the fact
that several regiments in Asia have been
summoned for service in Europe. The
reports cause much anxiety, inasmuch as

WASHINGTON, D. G., May 1.-The
State Department has received dispatch
from Consul Little at Tegucigalpa, capital
of Honduras, stating that the revolution
has ended. The telegram furnishes no de-
tails of the events surrounding the col
lapse.
NEW ORLEANS, La, May 1.-THE
American steamer Rover, Captain r. V.
Reed, arrived to-day from Honduras. The
vessel brings reports of great excitement
growing out of the revolution. A big bat
tie was fought at Puerto Cortez and the
American Consul there, w. Alger. is said
to have been killed.
The Rover reached Puerto Cortez May
6. As there was great excitement and the
forces there were preparing for battle, and
as no flags were flying over the American
Consulate, Reed deemed it dangerous 10
land and sailed for Omoa. Four les out
the Rover, while flying the American flag,
was fired on by the Lucy B, the Nicara-
guam gunboat. which, under command of
General Rayes, had been sent by Nicara-
qua to the assistance of Honduras The
Rover stopped at the first shot, but Sec
ond struck within few feet OF the engine
house.
Rayes then boarded the Rover and
searched her thoroughly on suspicion that
she was bringing supplies to the revolu.
tionists. Reed protested against the firing
on and searching of a friendly vessel.
Rayes replied that he did not give -
for Americans. as the revolution wa. in
stigated and carried on by Americans.
Finding no contraband articles the Rover
was released and proceeded on her way.
On the return trip, two days later, the
Rover passed within few miles of Puerto
Cortez. The town was studied at a dis
tance through a fieldgass, and 1t was evi-
dent that battle had been fought there.
The Lucy B was lying at the wharf, but
was badly dismantled, the pilot house
and bulwarks were shot away. There was
no evidence that the town itself had suf.
fered any serious damage from the fight.
but the fact that the Lucy had landed
would seem to indicate that the Govern
ment troops had defeated the revolu-
tionists and captured the town.
A short distance from Puerto Cortez
Captain Reed heard that W. 8. Alger, the
American Consul, was killed the day pre-
vious. Alger was charged with being in
sym pathy with the reyolutionists, and, in
fact, one of the ringlenders Nearly all
the Americans in Puerto Cortez sympa-
thize with the revolutionIsts.
The impression prevailed that the battle
fought at Puerto Cortez must in conse-
quence have been bloodier than the usual
Central American battles.
Captain Reed will enter protest with
the United States authorities against the
action of the Nicaraguans in firing on
and searching his vessel.

warm personal friend OF mine. I am
quite certain it was not Captain Thomas,
for the body was attired in an oilskin
suit, being apparently sailors outfit.
Whoever he may have been he made a
desperate effort to prevent being washed
overheard, as the others doubtless we're.
He was most securely lashed to the davits.
flashed to the davits also were several
small boxes. which probably contained
the ships papers. Owing to the high seas
did not feel justified in attempting to
get aboard the Siglin, especially as no one
remained alive aboard of her,"
James Chilberg, one of the Ainsworth' s
crew, said the sight presented by the
corpse on the vessel was the most sicken-
ing he had ever witnessed. In the place
of eyes were gaping sockets, and the mans
features bore traces of terrible sufferings.
The Siglin's mainmast was trailing
astern, held by the shrouds. The fore
hatch and steering gear were in place and
the anchors hung fast at the catheads.
Chi!berg's theory is that the vessel was
jibed in heavy sea and that its masts
went by the board. The Ainsworth tackled
up to the wreck twice in an endeavor to
obtain a clew to the mystery, but was
finally compelled to abandon the dereIict,
which is directly in the path OF the orth.
ern feet and constant menace to naviga-
ton.
The dead man had woven a network of
ropes about him in his efforts to secure
himself and several small boxes, which
were supposed TO contain either the ships
papers or personal valuables. from being
washed away.
The Ainsworth lost its rudder seventy
five miles off the coast. The crew rugged
jury rudder and got into Yakitat har-
Dor, where new rudder was made. Here
they also gave the missionary and the
Indians the result OF the late Presidential
election. For eight months those isolated
people had had no news from the outside
world.
The General Siglin left San Francisco on
March a. and had never since been heard
from until the dispatch announcing that
the water-logged hull of the vessel had
been sighted by the crew of the Ainsworth
was received yesterday.
Captain Thomas was we'll known to
almost every shipping man in San Fran
cisco. His brother is one of the most popu-
lar shippers on the coast. Harry Saun-
ders was, the brother of tho present cap
tain of the big ocean liner China. It was
only few months ago that he came to
the coast, and the brothers had not met
for years Ohm has been going as cook on
trading schooners to Alaska for years,
while the other mon were all known along
the front.
The General Siglin was an eighty-ton
schooner built in Marshfield, Or, in 1894.
1t was so feet long with % feet beam and
8 feet in depth. Its home port was EN-.
pire City. Or. The General Siglin was one
of the first vessels to start out on the new
idea that it would be more profitable 10
chase the leviathans of the northern seas
in schooners instead Of utilizing the larger
vessels which eat up most OF the profits.
This is the first year in which the
schooner-whaling idea was on trial, and
she General Siglin was the first vessel to
get away.
