BRITISH SHIP LOST.
The Asia Goes Down In n storm. With
Twenty People on Board.

Boston. Feb. 22.-rhere is scarcely a
doubt that the British ship Asia, bound
from Manila for this port. was
wrecked near Nantucket during the
gales OF the past few days. and that
her entire crew of twenty men have
persisted.
This calculation is not only borne out
by wreckage, consisting of the stern of
the boat. yards and other materials
which were cast ashore at Monomoy,
but Captain Haley of this city tele-
phones from Woodruff tonight that
while the tugboat Il. V. .McCauley was
steaming out to the barge Excelsior,
which lies sunk on Handkerchief shoal,
he saw positive evidence of the wreck
of large square rugged vessel, and re-
covered two bodies from n portion of
the dismantled hull.
Captain Haley stated that while off
the Handkerchief llghtship the tug
passed through n large amount OF
wreckage. including bales of hemp,
broken spars and broken ship timbers.
Drifting in the midst of this was por-
ton of the wreck on which the bodies
were lashed 1t was discovered that
the bodies were those of n man and n
little girl. apparently IL years old. The
tug quickly headed in the direction of
the wreck, and the crew released the
bodies. and the tug returned immedi-
ately to Woodruff. where the news was
sent to this city.

Honolulu, Feb. 10 (Via San Francisco,
Feb. 22)-One of the most severe storms
over experienced in Honolulu took
place on the morning of the 18th The
wind developed into n hurricane and
the rain came down in torrents. The
thunder was terrific, and lightning
flashes followed in quick succession.
The storm reached its height about
O'Clock. when the velocity of the wind
must have exceeded fifty miles an hour.
Houses were rocked on their founda-
tons. sheds blown down, trees uproot-
ed and other damage done, but all
sounds were drowned by the crashing
thunder.
The greatest damage reported was
the total loss of the switch-boar in the
telephone station. The fire Is said to
have been caused by bolt OF lightning.
Cool heads and hard work alone saved
n number of vessels In port.

stress upon the Importance of the docu-
ment, which resulted from n steno-
oGraphic report of the interview be-
tween Senator Morgan and Mr.. Koop.
The document consisted Of questions
by Senator Morgan and replies by Mr..
Koop.
The latter said that he had been in
forty-three provinces and had spent
more or less time In each of them in
the prosecutions of his inquiries. In
no place outside of Havana, he said
was any effort made to take care of
the concentrates. and he declared that
the people We're dying in great num-
bers in all places in which they had
been collected together by the Spanish
authorities both as a result of the
cruelty of the Spanish troops and for
lack Of food.
He declared that there was no evil
dence in the province of a more liber-
al treatment OF these unfortunate peo-
pie under the administration of Gen.
Blanco than there had been under Gen.
Weyler's regime, and said that the peo-
pie in general were in as deplorable a
condition as they had been before the
change. In no case were the concern
trados allowed to go outside the mill
tary posts to collect food, and while
there We're some effort in certain in
stances to grow crops in the immediate
vicinity OF the garrisons. these crop
areas did not extend more than 500
yards from the forts.
He added that II the people were al
lowed to get out they could get enough
to eat to keep soul and body together,
but that when even small children at
tempted to go outside OF the guard
lines they Were shot down as ruthless
ly as If they We're enemies in arms.
He said that he had seen women and
children abused by the Spanish SOL
diers, and that favorite pastime
seemed to be kick the women about as
II they were dogs.
Mr.. Koop also devoted considerable
space. at Senator Morgan's suggestion.
to the scheme of autonomy under the
liberal ministry and pronounced II n
failure from one island to the another.
He said that business was at a stand
still throughort the country. that few
crops were growing, and that desoa-
ton and ruin stared the traveller in the
face wherever he went As n conse-
quence property was much deprecated
and the people We're greatly dis
couraged. He said that the general
estimate was that the war had already
resulted In the loss Of 100000 lives. and
Mr.. Koop himself did not consider
these figures exaggerated.
There was some comment upon the
document by Senators Morgan, Gall
niger and Mason, but no official action
was taken. Senator Morgan said the
statement was no more than he had
expected to hear and Senator Gallinger
declared that the picture drawn was
deplorable one. He said that two years
ago he had advised that the United
States should intervene to put n stop
to the war, and that every Develop
ment since had confirmed the wisdom
of the suggestion then made.
