Disappeared in Cuban Waters.

New YORK. June 2.-The Journal
says: A cablegram from Havana, re-
ceived last night, announced the
Ward line officials in that port be-
lieve that the steamship Valencia has
been wrecked. The Valencia left
New York City on May Goth for Mas
sau and south-side Cuban ports. She
was in command of Captain Skillings,
and had a crew of forty-five all told.
All that could be learned last was
that there were less than five cabin
passenges on board. The Valencia
reached Nassau in safety.
Officers on the Santiago say that the
Valencia left Nassau for Guantanamo,
and she then had only one cabin pas.
senger. The others had disembarked
at Nassau. The run to Guantanamo
fully occupies forty hours, and stop
of twelve hours is made at that port.
After leaving there the Valencia was
expected to touch at Santiago, then
proceed to ManzanillO, and finally to
Cienfuegos, the most eaSterly point
in her voyage along the south coast.
Allowing for running time and the
usual stops, the Valencia, if all went
we'll. should have entered the tortuOus
passage leading into Manzanillo bay
last Saturday.
The cablegram from Havana gives
no particulars, but officers on both
the Santiago and City of Washington
both now in port, think that if the
Valencia is lost she has probably
struck one of the numerous reefs
about Manzanille.
