PANAMA MAY BE LOST
Transport Captured from the Span
ish Said 10 Have Fcundered.
Three Hundred Persons May Have
Perished - Congressman naixcii
and Many American Soldiers
Among the Number.

Santiago de Cuba, Nov. 3.-It rs ru-
morcd that the transport Panama went
down in n gale ia the Windward Pas
sage Tuesday night This rumor Is
based on the report of n fishing schoon-
er which reached here Wednesday from
Cape Maysi. Ii is not known whether
any OF the passengers and crew reached
the shore in safety. Some foundation
for the reported loss of the transport
il found in the fact that large amount
of wreckage, supposed TO belong to the
Panama. was picked up Wednesday.
Eight articles marked "Panama" were
found in the water. but no trace of the
vessel was seen, so far as Is known
here.
The Panama, which was taken from
the Spaniards as prize during the
war, was in bad condition when she
sailed from Santiago on Monday. Her
engines were out of order and her hull
was damaged. Her condition was such
that Postmaster Hugo Hydeman con
sidercd her unsafe. and declined 10
place the mails aboard OF her. Many
seamen here say the vessel has been
unseaworthy for long time. When
the Panama sailed from this port she
had 800 persons on board, including
officers, passengers and crew.
Among the passengers were Repre-
sentative John Dalzell and former Rep
resentative HUFF. OF Pennsylvania. who.
with party of seven Pennsylvania
railroad men, had spent several days in
Santiago investigating plans for con-
structing a railroad to connect San
tiago with Havana. with which they
had been favorably impressed.
There were several officers of regi-
ments now stationed in Santiago. who
were on their way home. having been
granted leaves OF absence on account OF
Illness. Most OF the passengers. how
ever. were from Puerto Rico. The Pan
anna was bound for ports on tho north
coast OF Cuba. for Havana and New
York. There Is no telegraphic commu-
nication between here and Cape Maysi.
The lighthouse on that point is badly
located. The site is misleading. Gale
tus Point intervening between the light
and north-bound vessels. The Boston
fruit steamer Belvidere was wrecked
there in May. Gen. Wood has ordered
all vessels bound eastward TO be on the
lookout for any traces Of the Panama
and her passengers and crew.

Jerusalem. Nov. I. - The emperor

their VISIT TO the Holy Land. They
have abandoned their trip to Jericho
owing to European complications. and
Al is believed they will not go 90 Syria.
Various reasons are. ascribed for the
emperor's curtnilment OF his journey,

excessive heat and the discomfort OF

Jaffa by sen.

able time amid the scenes connected

joycd the magnificent view Of the Dead

A NOVEL CASE
Republican Soldier Forced to stand
Democratic Candidate
Against His VIII

La Crosse, Wis, Nov. ga very un-
usual action was brought in the circuit
court here Wednesday, and as a result,
Maj. j. Kircheis, of the Third Wiscon-
sin volunteers, a republican, is COM
PEELED TO accept the nomination for
sheriff of La Crosse county on the dem
ocratic ticket. against his will. While
the major was in Puerto Rico the dem
ocratic convention, well knowing that
he was n republican. nominated him for
sheriff without his consent or knowl-
edge. His regiment has just returned
from Puerto Rico on 60-days' furlough,
and he did not reach home until Mon
day, two days too late to file his declina-
ton of nomination. He refused 10
run, and the county clerk refused 20
put his name on the official ticket.
Democratic County Chairman Ma
honey then brought action in the cir
cult court TO compel the county clerk
70 place Kircheis' name on the ticket,
and won his case Judge Wyman. in his
rulings. held that the law required that
& defamation be filed nine days before
the election. and that II was not for the
court TO put any different construction
on the statute, and therefore Mai
Kercheis' name must go on the ticket
Maj. Kircheis made an excellent record
in Puerto Rico as an army officer. and IL
Is conceded that he will be elected by
a large majority, but he is still an army
officer, and his regiment may not be
mustered out until long after he has
been elected. and he will not accept the
office. The legal fraternity in this city
say this IL the queercst case on record,
and great variety OF opinions are ex-
pressed by them as 10 tho outcome.
