plosion of one of the boilers of the steam
cr City of Trenton on the Delaware river
above this city on Wednesday afternoon.
This conclusion is reached hy the police
authorities through the fact that II per-
sons who are reported 10y their relatives
or friends to have been on the steamer
have not yet been found. These missing
persons, with II bodies already recov-
cred, make Il total Of 2S. Ten persons
are still in serious condition rs re
suit Of the disaster, of whom four are in
critical condition and may die. The
work of searching for the victims has
been kept up necessarily since the eXplo-
sion occurred Two bodies were recover

COLON, Colombia. Sept. 3.-Bocas del
Toro, no miles west of Colon, is virtu-
ally besieged by the Liberals or insur-
gents. They number at least two hun
bred and, as already cabled, occupy Pro
vision island, which is opposite the town
and commands the entrance to the har-
Dor. They are fairly well armed, pos
sessing two small modern cannon as well
as plenty of ammunition, and are com
manded by a Nicaraguan Among them
are many Nicdruguans aud Costa Hican
Liberals.
For more than month the Liberals
have been threatening the town. About
fortnight ago they improved their posi-
tion on Provision island about mile and
a half from Bocas del Toro. which is also
On an island. and the opposing forces
have occasionally exchanged shots, al
though, with the exception of one ia.
maican wounded, there have been no
casualties.
Among the Liberals are several who
own property in Bocas del Toro. The Lib
erals express no desire or intention to
damage the town or to modest foreigners
pr foreign vessels There is easy commu-
nication 10y mail with the land east and
west of Bocas del Toro. Cannon. arms
and ammunition are obtained from coast
towns in Costa Iiica and Nicaragua, Boz
cas- del Toro being about forty miles from
the Costa Iican frontier.
The Liberal position is strong, and the
situation is likely to remain as it is until
one side or the other makes an attack.
Such an action would subject the attack
ing party to the severe fire of their oppo.
nents. as it would be necessary to pass

Their side is inclined to take this risk. The
Liberals profess to believe that Il pro

result in IA withdrawal of the government
force from Bocas del Toro. Counting re-
ri forccmcntS. the government has about
one hundred and seventy men there. and
the town can only hc reached by very
light draft steamers through roundabout
