CHARLESTON WRECK.
No Hope Of Saving the Cruiser or
Her Valuable Contents.
LANDED READY FOR A FIGHT,

But Instead ofFinding Hostiles They
Found "a Haifsavage People who Re-
garded Them with Curlosity-Mauy
Escaped In Under Clothing.
Manila. Nav. 15.-Further details re-
garding the grounding of the United
States cruiser Charleston show that
she struck an uncharted coral reef ten
miles east of Kamiguin Island. Her
stern was almost submerged and the
bow almost out of water. heavy
sea was on, and the cruiser began roll
ing violently. The water tight doors
were quickly closed, but we're stove
I'm under the engine compartment, the
largest of the ship.
After the first efforts to right her the
officers feared she might slide off be-
cause of the heavy sea, and therefore
abandoned the attempt to save her.
They hurried to the launch and boats
and rowed away, prepared To ught Tor
a landing, with two Colt guns, l34
rifles and ten days rations. Some OF
the officers and men we're dressed only
in pajamas and their under clothing.
Two hours after the Charleston struck
all had gotten away. A party returned
two days later, but found 1t impos-
sible to save anything.
The first landing was made on a
little island. with a front of barren
rocks. Next day the boats again took
to the water and proceeded to Kami-
guin Island, where a landing was made
in the expectation that fighting would
be necessary. So far from this being
the case, however. the Charleston's S
men found a half savage people, who
regarded them with curiosity rather
than hostility.
On the third day the storm had
greatly subsidized and Lieutenant John
d. Mcdonald. with Boatswain Dom
mick Glynn and six men, started for
the Gulf of Lingayen in 80 foot sail
ing launch, hoping to find an American
warship, but entirely ignorant of Gen
eral Wheaton's expedition.
Lieutenant Mcdonald was four days
aloat, keeping under shelter OF the
hostile shore for two days on account
of the high seas, being most of the
time in soaking rain. Finally, flying
the Union Jack down, clad in their
under clothing and drenched to the
skin, the officer and his companions
overlook the transport Aztec, which
carried them to the battleship Oregon
The gunboat Helena was due to ar
rive at Kamaguin Island Monday. The
| Charleston was returning from a five
weeks cruise along the eastern coast
of Luzon, and Admiral Watson was
beginning to be uneasy. He supposed
however that she had Joined General
| Wheaton's expedition.
In naval circles the accident is con-
sidered quite unavoidable. The only
wonder is that there arc not more
such disasters in Philippine waters
which are most indifferently charted
The Charleston lies practically in tht
open sea. and there is no hope Of saw
ing her or the valuable paraphernalis
and contents of the cruiser.

Pittsburg, Nov. 15.-At a meeting of
the Carnegie Steel company and Frick
Coke company yesterday it was re-
solved that no change be made either
in organization, ownership or policy.
Mr.. Carnegie signified his entire con-
currenee with this action. and ex-
