NEGOTIATIONS for the purchase by the
I-nifed States Government of the British
steamship Hampstead having fallen
through. she sailed to-day for the Cape
Verde Islands with her cargo Of 5000
tons of coal. Interest has attached 10
the sailing Of this vessel because Of the
fact that the Spanish fleet and tiotiila
are M the Cape Verde Islands in need
of coal. II was thought that the United
states Government would buy both the
Hampstead and her cargo, but IL seems
that a price could not be agreed upon
for the vessel 1t is said that her owners
wanted $4,000 10 is believed that be-
fore she can reach her destination war
will have been declared between the
United States and Spain, and the coal
will then be contrabaud.
