hsned patrol along the ocean near Ba-
Aer beach and along the bay shore inside
Fort Point. Thus far his men have picked
up Tour mail bags, one of these washing In
near Bakers and the others near the Fort
foiht hfe-saving station. The surveyor
mas given orders that all fishing boats
must report at the custom office. All bodies
brought In by them and all wreckage and
ho'sam picked up by fishermen must be
accounted for to the officials at the barge
vince. In this way IL is thought that loot
Ae OF mail bags and trunks may be
stopped. Among other effects picked up by
fishermen was the box containing Captain
wards papers. The police have estab-
Ashed patrol outside the beach south OF
Fort Winfield Scott.
Inc value OF the cargo OF the Rio de
Saheiro has not been determined, owing to
me absence OF important papers. but il is
'&fiously estimated at from 100000 to 5000.
