BURNED AT SEA.
Bark and Entire Crew Perished by Fire h q
Storm.

storm.
New York, Jan. 31.-A special from
Mobile, Ala, says: The British steam.
or Governor Blake. which has arrived
here from Grand Cayan. brought news
of the destruction of q bark by fire ut
sea. Presumably the entire crew per-
ished on the vessel, which is supposed
to have been the Mary, of New York.
Seamen could DO seen cinging to the
rigging, but the vessel was enveloped
in flames and rescue was impossible.
Captain James Hunter, Of the Gov
ernor Blake, says he sighted the burn.
ing vessel 100 miles from Mobile bar.
1t was just at dark, and but for the
high sea prevailing at the time the
rescue.
"When We sighted the bark" said
Captain Hunter, ''she seemed to be q
mass of flames. We were riding head
on before the storm, and we were in
imminent danger ourselves. We made
several attempts to go to the rescue.
but the wind was 80 high and the sea
SO hoAvy that we were compelled 10
abandon all efforts to rescue and give
attention to saving ourselves.
1--WE saw members of the crew of the
unfortunate bark up in the rigging
making signals to us, and while we
were in sight two men jumped from
the yardarms into the sea. We
judged that nothing could save the
vessel, as she seemed to DO afire all
over"

The Danish Antilles Deal.

Copenhagen. Jan. SO.-It appeara
that only q single member out OF the
Is comprising the finance committee
of the Folkething opposes the sale Of
the Danish West Indies to the United
States. The objector is starting a
newspaper campaign in favor OF their
retention. but the finance committee Of
the Landsthine will shortly report in
favor of the sale of the islands. The
agitation of the inhabitants OF the
islands against their sale is largely
artificial, and, therefore, of not much
weight.

American families. The manager Of
the lake implored the United States
legation at Caracas to afford prOtec'
ton, saying that the lives and proper
ty of Americans were exposed to ouer'
lila attacks, firing around the lake was
going on nightly. and the Americans
are too few to hold out long. United
States Minister Loomis, according to
the same advices, replied that these re-
ports were possibly exaggerated. but
that they could not he ignored. and
that he would wire the facts to Wash
ingtOn.
MIR. Olcott, the Orinooo mauoger,
has returned from Caracas. where he
went to try to arrange for the release
of the steamers and schooners captured
by the Venezuelan gunboat near Trin''
dad. The British owner few the Nen'
ezulean flag and the crew were not shot.
The revolution in Eastern Venezuela
near the asphalt deposits is increasing,
but the disturbances are remote from
Caracsc. which remains tranquil. In
formation has reached Port OF Spain
saving that the insurgents have retaken
Curapano and will attack Cumanoa
soon.. Steamers are not allowed to
land passengers or mails at Curapano.
The commander OF the French cruiser
Suchet, which lies there, confirms this
intelligence and the reported activity
of the insurgents. 1t appears that an
attempt to capture Ciudad. Bolivar.
capital of the state OF Bolivar, about
3,5 miles up the Orinoco, is likely to
be made as soon as the insurgents have
received a large supply OF arms.

SURRENDER Of T|h|0
Filipino lnsurgent and Command
Lay Down Arms.
PEACE COMPLETE IN NORTHERN Ltjz0N
AIejandrino and Other Rebel Officials Give
Themselves Up-Fisht with Bolomen
In the Abra Mountains.

Manila, May o. General Tinio,
with his entire command, surrendered
to Captain Frederick V. Krug, of the
Twentieth infantry, at Sinait, pro-
vince of South llocos.
The report that General Alejand-
rino has surrendered is confirmed.
He was looked upon as the possible
successor OF Aguinaldo.
Padre Aglipay, the excomn1uni-
Gated Filipino priest who preached
the doctrine of holy war against the
United States has also surrendered.
Fifteen Filipino officers have sur
rendered to Colonel Baldwin at Ca
vite Viejo.
Baldomero Aguinaldo and Emilio
Aguinaldo and five other insurgent
leaders have surrendered.
Aguinaldo was subpoenaed as a
witness for the defense in a Mando
Dacut murder case pending in Tay
Tay, province of Morong. Later it
was decided that Aguinaldo was not
available as witness.
Captain John B. Mcdonald, with
81 men of the Third cavalry, recently
attacked 60 insurgent riflemen and
40 bolomen in the mountains Of Abra
province. The insurgents were de.
fcated. Captain Mcdonald was
wounded in the lungs and private
was killed.
The surrender of General Tinio
marks the almost complete collapse
OF organized rebellion in the Philip
pines. He will deliver all men and
guns in his command as soon as they
can be gathered together. There is
now only one chief whom the war de-
partment is particularly DESTROYS OF
catching, namely, Cables, the head
hunter. This man has violated every
rule of warfare and it is not likely
that he will be taken alive.

CLEANUP IN THE KLONDIKE.
Not Less Than Twenty-Five MilIIons-News
Of New Strikes.

Victoria, b. G., May 2. - The
steamer Amur brings news of the
Klondike cleanup, which is being
vigorously prosecuted. Sluicing is
in full operation, the thaw having
given plenty of water. The output
is estimated at not less than $25, 600, :
600. Many experts say it will reach
$50, 600, 600. Stampeders are still
rushing to Montana creek, which is
now more staked than any othc
Klondike creek. Stampedes are also
going on to Gold creek. Owing to
the thaw cauesd by good weather,
Dawsonians are looking for an early
opening of the river.
The Dawson board of trade has APP
pointed committee to interview the
railroad company and river trans
portation companies in an effort to
get reduced freight rates.
Ore going $50, 600 to the ton has
been found at mine on Twelve Mile
inlet near Ketchikan.
Tho Amur passed the wreck of the
barge Colorado, which is lying on
Manuense reef, in Wrangel narrows.
Her bow is lifted up on the reef and
the stern submerged at high tide.
Her cargo can be saved.
