Washington, Jan. 4.-Treasury de-

an investigation of the accounts of the

American Warships Have Sank
Colombian GunbOat.

Colon, Jan. 4.-There were persistent
rumors, here Thursday and again Fri

warships. There is no confirmation OF

Washington, Jan. Assistant Sec

Panama, Jan. 4.-The situation on
this side of the isthmus is quiet and
satisfactory to the naval authorities.
Reports from Darien do not give any
evidence of Colombian activity or the

He was 67 years of age last March.
During the last ten days Capt. Pabst
had not left his home, owing to severe
weather, but his condition seemed to
be improved, and his family was not
prepared for his death. At eight o'clock
Friday morning he suffered a relapse,
however, and began to fail rapidly. He

death, when he became unconscious
and passed quietly away.

Few persons realize how much big

how it swept the fleets of Spain from
