Ia CHAMPAGNE SAFE.

French Liner lowed Into Halifax Aftor =
Terrible Experience at Sea.
HALIFAX, N. S., Feb. %. - The
$50 passengers on board, has arrived in
port after terrible experience at sea.
After drifting for five days on the
Newfoundland banks with her engines
disabled and the screw shaft shattered,
the great Boston. bound freighter Ro-
man from Liverpool came along, picked
her up and brought her into Halifax
without further mishap of consequence.
Left Havre on Feb IL. -, y@@@--.
La Champagne sailed from Havre on
Feb. IL. All went well until the 18th.
The ship was steaming fast against the
head seas, when suddenly tremen-
dous crashing sound was heard in the
engine rooms. In an instant, a panic
seized the passengers and great excite.
ment prevailed in the saloons and
among the occupants Of the steerage.
The ships passage was stayed and the
heavy poundings shook the. whole
craft. Captain Poirot quickly Gained
the passengers and soon after it was
discovered that the tail screw shaft had
broken. The steamer was running at
high speed and the engines few around
like lightning when the resistance of
the screw was removed, and before
they could be stopped much damage
was done in the engineroom. An ex-
animation showed that the damage
was irreparable, and nothing remained
to be done but anchor. -

MAY INVOLVE ALL

General War Among Central American
States Possible.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-The condi-
ton of affairs between Nicaragua and
Costa Rica is beginning to arouse seri-
GUS apprehension in official circles, as
it is said to threaten to involve not only
those two countries in war but also to
draw all the Central American repub-
lies into an armed conflict.
The diet Of the Greater Republic, in.
Guiding Nicaragua, Honduras and Sal.
vador, has submitted demand on
Costa Rica for an explanation of the
entrance of an armed force of 400 men
from Costa Rica into Nicaragua. No
reply has been given, so far as is
known to officials here.
The Nicaraguan authorities assert
that the 500 men entering from Costa
Rica were not an unauthorized force,
but were acting with the knowledge of
the president Of Costa RIGA. If Costa
Rica gives no explanation in response
to the demand Of the diet it is feared
serious trouble will follow. -

NEE RE .E -
NAVAL COURT or INQUIRY WILL
RETURN TO HAVANA.

Testimony of Divers Wanted After Al
ditioDal Work on the WreckNo Re-
. port ON tn. Matter Expected for At
s.ea.t Several Weeks.
& WASHINGTON, March AT the close
of efhce hours telegram came to the
navy department. from Admiral Sicard
at Key West in the following terms:
''Court Of inquiry commenced session
at Key West today They must re-
sumo session at Havana to obtain evil
dence Of divers after further work
upon the wreck. . -
:. The important feature Of this COM
munication is the declaration that the
court will return to Havana. It puts
at rest rumors that have been current
for some days past that the court was
aot to return to Havana for the reason
that it had discovered the cause of the
sinking of the Maine, which was not
an accident, and that they had conse-
Quently no further business in Havana.
Report Not Expected for Some Time. q
One important deduction to be drawn
from the message was that the report
of the court of inquiry can scarcely be
expected for several weeks to come.
The court will be occupied at Key
West for some days at least in taking
the testimony of the survivors there.
Then, upon the return to Havana, it is
expected thai good deal of time must
elapse before the divers can get through
the mud which now encompasses the
lower part OF the wreck of the Maine
and examine the bottom. After this il
done the court must deliberate in order
to secure an agreement upon their find
ings. The prevalent belief at the navy
department is that up to this moment
the court has not once undertaken to
conn pare notes and endeavor to reach
such al agreement.
Simply Brushing Up for Inspection.
The reports that come from Key
West about unusual activity and the
observance of unusual precautions
among the few soldiers quartered there
was received with amusement at army
headquarters here. 1t was said that no
orders had gone forward from this city
to explain the hustle, but there was the
best OF reason to suspect that the com.
mandant was simply brushing up the
post and putting his best foot forward
against the expected appearance there
on his tour OF inspection of General
Merritt, the commanding general of
the department. Of the East.
Secretary Long said at the close of
Office hours that no orders had gone out
to send another warship to Havana, re-
ports to the contrary Notwithstanding.
