WAS IT WILLIAM sCHREIBER7
Prove n C1cw to William
Schreiber's Whereabouts.

New York, Nov. 4.-According to n
dispatch from Albany to the Journal
and Advertiser, letter received
there from David Mattoon, a resident
who is travelling in Cuba, says that,
seemingly, William Schreiber, the de-
faulting clerk of the Elizabethport
bank, arrived in Santiago, Cuba, on
October II, and left, on the 18th, for
Manzanillo. The letter which was
written at Santiago. on October 20,
says in substance that man was
brought to the hotel there from the
Ward line steamer Santiago De Cuba
that left New York on October i, ar
irving on the 1lth. He gave the name
of Blunt, but he did not put his name
on the register.
He stammered. lie told some Of
the guests that he was in great fnan.
cial difficulties and was being fol-
lowed. He had expected the affair to
be patched up, and, finding that it
could not be, his attorney had nd.
vised him to go to Cuba. He was Dor,
dering on nervous prostration, and
would come down stairs at midnight
and pace the floor. He finally told
one of the guests who had gained his
confidence, that detectives would be
on the steamer Saratoga which left
New York, October 6. So he took a
steamer that left October II and was
TO stop at Manzanillom Cienfuegos,
Caiesda, and all other principal south
side ports. Before leaving he told
the people that his name was not

STRUCK ASUBMERGED WRECK.
Line steamer st. PauI-Six
Months 1 Repairs.

New York, Nov. THE American
line steamer St. Paul limped into port
yesterday morning under the port en-.
gine, after having incurred the most
serious experience Of her career.
On October 81 the st. Paul struck
supposed submerged wreck, carrying
away the starboard propeller, causing
the engines to race so fercely that
the shaft broke and all connections
snapped. The starboard engines were
so severely wrecked that they are use
less, and it will take six months to
replace them with new set. The af.
ter outboard shaft tubing was carried
away. The ship is leaking considera-
bly,.
When the accident occurred the
cabin passengers were quite excited,
but they were soon restored to quiet
by the prompt report that the steam-
er was in no danger. The wind was
blowing heavily from the northeast,
with high cross-sca. The engineers
examined the breaks and disconnected
the starboard engines, and the st.
Paul proceeded on her voyage under
the port engines at reduced speed.
