an end. DR.. Hepworth had been in
failing health for several months, but
his death came as shock, for no ona
among those with whom he came in
daily contact suspected that his ill.,
ness would have a fatal termination.

Cameron, master, was cut almost in
two by the steamer George G.. lIndlcy,
Capt. Fitzgerald. master, Il half mile

mostly men of the hight crew who had
not time to get out of their hunks be-
fore the vessel went to he bottom.
The Wilson was coming toward the
canal and til" lln1lcy going out, both
loaded. Just before reaching the canal
and when about opposite the Wilson,
the lladlcy was given orders by tug
to go to Superior. Immediately she
shccrcd off for The Superior entry and
crashed directly into the Wilson.
The Wilson went down 50 quickly
that it did not seem possible 10 save
life. One moment the two boats were
plowing through the water 200 yards
apart. the next the crew of the Wilson
could be seen throwing Off their cloth
ing and jumping into the water. One
man on the Wilson seemed to have
more presence of mind than all the
rest lie threw life prcscrvers To them
that jumped in the cold water without
thinking and he certainly saved some
lives. The crew of the IIadlcy also
threw preservcrs TO the men strug-

ADOPT AMNESTY BILL.
Cuban Senators Put Through the
Measure to Set Americans
Mt Liberty.

Havana, June 9.-The senate
passed the bill granting full amnesty
to all American citizens under SEN
tence in Cuba or against whom pro-
ceedings are pending. AS the house
has already passed the bill, nothing
but few formalities stand between
C. L. w. Nicely and Estes G. Rathbone
and freedom. Rathbone says he APP
preciates the sentiments of the Gu
bans but what he wanted was a new
and fair trial. If he cannot obtain u
trial in the United States he will in
sist that congress investigate his ac-
tions in Cuba. A proposal to make
the bill applicable to Cubans who had
fought in the war was rejected on
the ground that this was not within
the sphere of the legislature. 1t was
decided, however, to recommend that
the president pardon all offenders Of
this class.
Havana, June 10.-President Palma
has signed the bill granting amnesty
to all Americans under sentence or
awaiting trial in Cuba, and proceedings
have been begun by the courts to quash
the complaints against such Ameri-
cans and liberate those who are in Jail.

ERUPTION IN GUATEMALA.
One Thousand Persons Reported to
Have Pcrixhctl-PcOplcR Receive
Ample Warming.

San Francisco, June 7.--Anothcr
city in Central America has suffered
almost complete destruction and hun
dreds of it's Inhabitants have been
killed by volcanic eruptions.
The steamer Palcnn, which arrived
Friday from southern ports, brings
! the news that the town of Retail
bulen, situated ut the foot of Mount
Tacoma, in Guatemala, has been
buried under Il mass of lava, stones
and ashes thrown from the volcanic
crater, and probably 1000 of it's peo-
pie have persisted.
The volcano is about 25 miles from
Champanico, and near the town Of
Tapachulo, which, it is believed, also
suffered severely.
The eruption occurred several days
before the steamer Palcnn arrived nt
Champanico. The vcs' els officers
were informed by the company's
agent at that place that the volcano
had shown signs of impending erup-
ton for several days previous to the
outbreak. In fact, Mount Tacoma had
been restless ever since the great
earthquake of April IS, which de-
stroyed the city of Oucznltcnango.
For weeks black pail of smoke
hung over its summit and the glare
from the crater frequently illuminated
the sky. Many of the Inhabitants of
Retalbulcn fled from their homes to
places of safety and these escaped
frightful deaths.
When the eruption at last broke
forth in it's full fury showers of lava,
ashes and stones were elected and COW
cred the country for miles around.
The Bay of Champanico was a mass
Of floating pumice and ashes.
No details were obtainablc by the
officers Of the Palcna, but the loss of
life was estimated at not less than
1000.
The same steamer brought letter
to Balfour, Guthrie & Co., agents of
the Pacific Coast Steamship company,
from G. NJ. Melville, their agent in
Guatemala, confirming the report of
the eruption.
lie also stated that since the earth
quake of April is shocks had been of
almost daily occurrence. A few days
before the Palena sailed small vii
lage near Mount Tacoma was de-
stroyed, but no details could be OBJ
tanned.
The volcano of Santa Maria is also
stated to have been in state of erup-
ton.
