BARK GOES
DOWN WITH
ITS CREW
Sea Swallows Spanish Ship
and Fifteen Men After
Heroic Battle With the
Storm Near the Bermudas

PHILADELPHIA Nov. 21. - The
British steamship Aros Castle, Captain
Day. fifty-seven days out from Java
with a cargo of sugar, arrived at TINS
port to-day and reported the proDdole
laundering on November 10 OF Ihe
Spanish bark Tafalla, with her crew OIL
fifteen men, during the recent southern
storm. The steamship stood Dy lhe
sinking bark for two days and on the
second night the Spanish vessel olsap-
peared. The condition OF the IaIalia
when the crew of the Aros Castle last
saw the vessel was such as TO leao
them to believe that the bark went
down during the night.
Captain Day reported that shortly
before daybreak on Sunday night, NO
vember\ 13, during a terrlnc gaze.
rockets were sighted 22O miles east Oh
the Bermudas. The rockets were an
swererd by the Aros Castle and the
steamships course was changed in the
direction of the rockets. The sea was
running so high that the steamship
could not safely go near the distressed
vessel and she lay waiting Tor day
light.
After daybreak it was learned that
the distressed vessel was the Tafalla,
995 tons, Captain S. ROig, with cargo
of pitch pine from Brunswick, Ca, 1or
Valencia. The storm was so great that
no small boat could be sent to the as
sistance of the Tafalla and Captain
Roig hoisted the following signal;
Leaking six inches an hour. Main
pump broken and smaller pump
clogged. Men worn out"
CAPTAIN Day signaled that he would
Law by until the storm abated. Toward
noon. however, the captain of the Brit
ish steamship shot a line TO the bark
A hawser was fastened to the bark ana
slow progress was made in the tur-
bulent sea. Late in the afternoon the
hawser snapped and the Spanish vessel
again drifted helplessly, with water
gaining i'm the hold. Night came and
Captain Day stood by until morning
With daylight on Monday II was
seen that the bark was lower In the
water. but the British crew could DO
nothing until the sea became calmer
because the only hawser on the Vessel
was the one that had broken. MONDAY
night the vessels were still together
and the rockets and flare lights were
l,eDt going. After a. m Tuesday the
crew of the Aros Castle saw no more
rockets and all was darkness
When daylight came not sign or
the Snanish bark could be seen on the
ocean and 1t is the belief of the British
crew that the vessel was ripped open
nv the tremendous waves and went
down with all hands on board.
The Tafalla. which formerly carried
the name of the Ammina, was built in
1877.

The Yosemite Club will probably
match Britt and Jimmy Gardiner Of
Boston to box in December. All that
remains to make the match is Gardin-
er's consent to weigh either 1SO
pounds ringside or 1873 pounds at s
o'clock. He has agreed to 1873 pounds
at o'clock on the afternoon of the bat
tie.
The club has finally given up hope
to match Britt with Corbett. COrbett
insists on the same weight as when he
fought Britt a year ago. but Britt re-
fuses to make the weight. He wants
132 pounds ringside or no fight The
club managers do not care to take any
chances of losing a match with Gar
diner, as they believe it will be a strong
card. Gardiner is a boxer who was
comparatively unknown until year or
so ago. He has defeated some of the
best lightweights in the country so de-
cisively that shrewd judges picked him
to lower the colors of Champion Joe
Cans
A telegram from Denver says that
Gardiner left there last night to ar
range details for a match with Britt.
The managers of the Yosemite Club
wired Sam Harris, manager of Terry
McGovern, asking him If he would

General Kuropatkin outlining the sit

:. The authorities here are of the opin-
ion that General Kuropatkin will not
withdraw from Mukden without ac-
cepting battle.
1t is expected that he will leave CO.,
900 men to defend Mukden, while the
remainder of his army retires to Tie

al staff says that since the battle of

been reinforced by two army corps.
