The Spanish stmp. FL Salto, Captain
Londa, Rio Janiero to Queenstown via
Philadelphia, with cargo of manga
nese ore valued at 100000, reached
Hampton Roads in safety yesterday, 81
days out; having run short of coal and
being reduced to the burning of all
standing woodwork not absolutely ne
cessary for sailing her to reach here
Five miles more would have finished
her she absolutely nnt-ha4.insr- enough
combustible material left aboard to
make Lambert's Point. She was al
lowed to coal in quarantine, a barge
load of coal being sent her from Lam
bert's Point. Captain Londa's pluck in
stripping the vessel TO fire his boilers
instead of lying to for tow saved his
owners big salvage bill a storm
would have been bad business for him,
but, luckily, none was met with.
