uncomfortable besides meeting persons in whom he
had interest whatever.
The next day being Saturday, my husband and

DID NOT SIGHT SISTER SHIP.
Two Fabre Line Vessels Followed Americas
Course Without Finding Her.

Two ships of the Fabre Line. the Madonna
and the Germania. have come to port since Sat
urday, both taking the southern route followed
by all steamers of that line. but neither sighted
the overdue steamer America, with ia pas
sengers and crew of forty men aboard.
All kinds of theories are advanced along the
waterfront for the steamers non-arrival. and
the home office of the Fabre Line. as we'll
the local agents. finds ample excuses for the
ships delay. Friends and relatives Of the inn
migrants aboard the tardy steamer are con-
stantly asking for news of her. It was said
at the local Office that the America has been
frequently overdue. and on one occasion was not
heard from for seventeen days after she should
have reached port. The home Office sent
cable message last night, saying that 1t had
every confidence that Captain Biche would bring
the vessel safely to port. NJ. Fabre head of the
company, said that he believed the Americas
machinery had broken down, and that she was
delayed through repairs.
The theory that she may have picked up
derelict for salvage is not considered by the
company. The America left St MichaeIs on
June IL, and due here June 20 She had
good weather, judging from the reports OF the
Madonna and the Germania. A dozen captains
have pointed out that IL was more than easy.
and not uncommon. for ship to drift in and
about the southern transatlantic lanes without
being sighted by another steamer.

Chicago. July 3.-Men sleeping beside their

Investigation which he has begun into the bake

While the work has only begun. the discoveries

has nestled undisturbed in Easements, and too
frequently IL is said. with unsanitary and filthy
surroundings. rivalllng those found in the worst

At present the entire staff Of the sanitary
bureau, with the exception OF one inspector, is
at work among the packing houses.
