New York, Jan. 31.-The German

from Hamburg via Halifax, brought
into port the captain and IA seamen of
the Russian bark Cuba, which was
abandoned at sea on January IS in lati-
tude 400, longitude 1910, in a dismantled
and waterlogged condition. Captain
Bohn of the Barcelona reports that AT
midnight on January II a glare of light
was sighted, which was at first thought
to be a ship on fire. The Barcelona
headed toward the light, and upon APP
preaching nearer huge flames were seen
rising from the vessel in distress. Pass
ing close to the craft, Captain Bonn,
with his nightglass, made out that she
was dismasted and water-logged, anu

charged from custody upon the recon-

being heard today. The examination of
the men was set to be heard before

st. Louis, Jan. 31.-Mayor ZeiSenhein
today refused to sign the bill passed by
the municipal assembly authorizing the
issuance of $4,000, 900 of bonds for a
worlds fair, to be held in 1903 In his
conference with Chairman VIM. Thomp-
son, of the worlds fair finance commit
tee, Mayor Zeigenhein objected to sign
ing the bill in it's present form, saying
that it was the loosest measure of it's
kind that he had ever seen. The point
which he raised most urgently against
the bill, was that no provision was made
for funding to the city treasury any
surplus over $4,000 which might be re-
allied from the sale of the bonds.

crew was kept constantly at the pumps,
but in spite of their exertions the water
gained until the hold was half full of
water. On January IA. terrific gale
arose from the southwest, which blew
with hurricane force and threw the bark
over on her beam ends. After efforts to
right her had failed the masts were cut
away and the gear. in falling, smashed
all the boats. The pumps were kept
going, but the seas washed completely
over the craft, keeping the crew inn
mersed in water. In this condition. the
vessel lay throughout the 18th. 10Th and

ers passed by. one very close at hand,
lut no attention was paid to the dis

DESIGNED TO PLEASE.

London, Jan. SLIT is now generally
accepted that the working of the proc
lamation in Pretoria describing Edward
VII as supreme lord of and over the
Transvaal," was deliberately designed
TO promote conciliation. Special sig
nificance is attached to letter from
Sir Henry Drummond Wolff. in which
that diplomat says it is difficult to
exaggerate the Importance of this wise
and beneficent step. The title he says
is liklier than any other that could be
devised to lead to pacification. 1t es-
tabllshes the supremacy of the British
sovereign and recognizes the moral en-
THY of the Transvaal, keeps it separate
from the constitutional empire and
places it's ancient laws, customs, tradi-
tons, religion, genealogy and private
property under the supreme, separate
rule and protection of the king.
The proclamation concludes Sir Henry
wa sinspired by the desires of concilia-
tory statescraft and the result must be
pacific.
