For the Insurgents
at Colombia.
Steamer Is Believed to
Have Them.
Bold FiIibusterers Have Sailed
From Baltimore.

Baltimore, Sept S.-The steamer
Maid of Patuca sailed from here yes
terday, ostensibly with men and equip
ment to build jetty at the mouth OF
the Patuca river in Honduras, but it
is pretty well understood along the
water front that the steamer is a
genuine tilibusrer and that she is car
rying ammunition to the insurgents in
Colombia. In her hold it is said are
casks of dynamite and boxes of rifles,
with a large quantity of ammunition
and similar warlike stores.
In charge of the outfit is John Toole,
who was engineer on the famous fill
buster Three Friends, which had many
thrilling experiences while carrying
arms to the Cubans in their fight
against Spain's rule.
The steamer is owned by company,
of which VIM. F. Vliet, Of Cleveland.
is said to be president She is new
boat, and was built in Cleveland. All
the crew were shipped for Key West,
but there, 1t is said, all will be re-
engaged for the Colombian trip.

The Destruction Of
the Crete
Has Left Hayti Without
a Boat.
Germany Only Saved l. Uncle Sam
a Bad Job.

Washington, Sept. SIT is stated
today that no international complica-
tion will arise from the sinking of
the Haitien revolutionary gun boat,
Crete-a Pierrot, by German gun boat.
In fact, Germany has probably saved
the United States the unpleasant task
of itself destroying the Crete Had
Commander McCrea, of the United
States steamship Machias been in the
Hatlen waters at the time, he would
probably have done Just what the
German commander did. The destruc.
tion Of tho Crete wipes out the entire
Haiten navy. Admiral Killieck has
no other boat and the struggle for the
Presidency will now have to be fought
out entirely on land, The Crete had
been declared a pirate.
