STEAMER In DISTRESS.
MAY STRIKE HIDDEN REEFS AT
ANY MOMENT.
Vessels Go Out to Her Relief, But
Are Compelled to Return on Ac-
count of the Heavy Storm.

Halifax. N. s., Jan. 1O.--A dispatch
received here late tonight states that
an unknown ocean steamer had been
sending up signals of distress off
Whitehead, 100 miles east of here
When first observed, darkness was
coming on and she was about seven
miles distant. showing a flag calling
for assistance, and seemed TO be run
ming in westerly course, keeping of
shore. After dark. she discharged a
number of skyrockets. Thick snow
squalls set in about o'clock, and
nothing more was seen of her except
an occasional rocket.
When the signals were first observed,
the schooner Hannah Elbridge and life
boat and several small boats started
from the shore towards the steamer.
Up to 1880, the Elbridge or boats had
not returned
An unconfirmed report here states
that the steamer belongs to the Fur
ness line. The F'urneSS liner Damararie
is eight days overdue from Cardiff, for
this port, with a cargo OF coal for the
British naval authorities.
The steamer State of Georgia from
Dantzic with cargo of sugar is also
due here.
]. H. Hugill, the Halifax manager of
the urneSS line, thinks the snip IN
distress is either the Damararie or
State of Georgia, unless it is some
steamer bound for a United States
port, which has got out of her course.
Mr.. Hugill is arranging for a steamer
to start for the eastern shore as soon
as possible.
The vessel is still reported signal.
ing for help and is in q dangerous po-
sition. as hidden shoals and lodges ex-
tend for miles along the coast from
Whitehead.
AT 11:15 o'clock tonight it was re-
ported from Whitehead that the life
boat and schooner Elbridge had re-
turned without finding the distressed
steamer, and owing to the thick snow
storm, had given up the search.
A second schooner, which went out,
returned with the same information.
The snow is falling heavily and the
wind blowing from the southwest.
The keeper at Whitehead lighthouse
reports that the first signals he saw
were about $3.50 p. m, and they could
be seen until after dark, when rockets
were sent up at frequent intervals, and
continued until the snOwstorm set in.
The steamer was schooner-rigged and
had dark-colored tunnels.

WEARY OF WAITING.
WEYLER'S COURSE IS VERY
GENERALLY CONDEMNED.
Made Great Promises, But Produced
Few Satisfactory Results-Unac-
climated Troops Have Died by the
Scores Of Hundreds.

Madrid, Jan. 10.-The popular i'm
patience with the government because
of the failure to suppress the rebellions
in Cuba and the Philippine islands is
daily increasing. Thousands of the young
men Of Spain have been sent to Cuba.
where they have met their death from
disease or the hardships of the campaign.
Their families believe that they would
be alive if it were not for the procrasti
mating policy of Captain General Weyler,
who, despite his promises to put down
the instruction, has apparently accom-
plished little, while his unacclimated
troops have been dying by scores of hun
dredS. The leaders of both the conserva-
tive and liberal parties are distrusted, and
the present outlook Is chaotic. Rumors
of a change in the ministry are frequently
put in circulation and as frequently de-
MED, but in the present temper of the
people, the succession of the liberals to
power would not Danish the distrust
which prevails everywhere. The future
is looked forward to with much anxiety.
