sAMARIA IS LOST.
So Says the Captain OF the Alcalde.
Whidh Sailed al the Same Tint.


San Francisco. April is-The impress
sion that the American ship Samaria.
si,n., Seattle for san Francisco, coal
laden has gone to the bottom, grows
stronger day by day. as no tidings
come from the overdue vessel.
The Alcalde, which left Seattle stimuli
taleously with the Samaria, arrived in
this port April 2. The Alcalde's master
says that ON March 25 he encountered
a terrible southeast gale and after be-
ing in company with the Samaria four
days the vessels unintentionally sep
arated, The Samaria was laden SO
deep in the water that the seas broke
over her and she walIowed badly IN
the trough of the sea. The Alcaide
had hard work saving herself and only
escaped from the fury Of the storm by
out oil bags. which moderat-
ed the force of the sea Immediately
about her. On the following day the
wind moderated. but. there was no sign
Of the Samaria. Much wreckage was
drifting about and the Alcalde's offl-
GERS saw a set of ships steps and
corpse tangled in a mass ropes which
drifted astern The Alcalde's captain
is confident that the Samaria and all
her crew are at the bottom of the sea

WOOL FIRM.
Domestic Markets Weak. but Foreign
Purchases Very Heavy.

Boston, April 15.-The AmericanWool
and Cotton Reporter will say tomor-
row Of the wool market:
There has been a notable decrease
In activity the past week, accompanied
In sone cases by higher quotations.
The prominent feature Of the market
is that many dealers report very little
wool which they can offer for sale.
The lessened activity Is due partly 70
this fact and partly 10 the fact thar
the manufacturers have been reduced
to state or great uncertainty by the
conflicting news from Washington, and
are Consequently acting in a very con-
servative manner as regards their en-
largements Of raw material. The most
striking feature has been the great
activity OF wool in foreign markets as
compared with domestic, "A per cent
Of the total sales In Boston for the
week being foreign wool The imports
OF wool rhe past week have been enor-
nous, amounting 10 100000 pounds.
Prices are extremely firm in all kinds
OF wool.

Washington. April 15.--In the senate
today Vest spoke in criticism OF the
provision Of the Indian appropriation
bill abolishing sectar1an Indian schools.
He knew. he said. that what he said
would subject him 10 bitter criticism.
He was brought up a Protestant and
had no connection with the Roman
Catholic church: but he had no syrnpa-
thy with that cowardly and ignorant
sentiment that any religious denoml-
nation could menace our liberties. He
had been reared TO believe the Jesuits
were opposed 10 republican instltu-
tions. but he had Travelled through the
Indian country, visiting the schools.
and had found them a travesty on edu-
cation. except when conducted by Jesu-
its. Broken down preachers and de-
funct politicians were sent out to the
western country 10 teach the Indian
children. He had found. he said, that
the only Indian schools accomplishing
any good were those conducted by the
Jesuits.

proceeded Vest, II would give them 10

would infinitely rather see them
Catholics than savages. | do not be-
long to that sect that would rather see

The Indian bill was not completed
when the senate adjourned to Mon
day.
