VICTORIA, B. c., Jan. 27.--The
steamer Salvor returned from the
wreck today with three survivors and
U. 5. Grant will reach Seattle with
eleven more and three bodies, while
the tug Bahadia with two fishing
dories is trying to recover the Others
washed ashore near the scene of the
wreck, which cannot be taken over the
difficult trail.
Sixteen bodies had been recovered
up to this evening, five being identi-
fed and search is being continued for
others. The Salvor brought Frank
Connors, waiter, and George Long,
fireman, to Victoria and both were i'm
mediately received at the Marine hos
pital, as they were suffering severely,
being bruised badly and swollen from
exposure. Connors was for time In
danger of losing his reason. When

island, in Barley sound, with nine
others, of whom four became mad, one
so violent that he had to be restrained
by his fellows. COnnors, imbued by the
hallucination that he saw a lighthouse
wandered off into the bush, where he
almost succumbed to the privations
endured before he was found a day
later by an Indian and transferred to
the steamer Salvor, lying on a log
muttering. almost insane. Long was
also on that raft. Both men had a
frightful experience after leaving the
vessel, not the least shocking of it be-
ing when they signaled nadly to the
steamer City of Topeka, which they
took to be the Queen, and saw the
steamer sheer away, leaving them to
drift at the mercy of the waves until
they drifted ashore, with four of their
companions raving maniacs before
death came to them.
All Praise Bunker
F. +. Bunker and the other survivors,
who made their way over the trail SUI
fered many hardships before they were
transferred to the U. S. s. Grant after
being succored by the Salvor's crew,
Bunker was loudly praised by his fell
lows, he being man of great vigo1
and bravery. When he reached Pach-
ena, he was clad only in his trousers
and had his boots tied with a piece
of string to hold them together. His
shoulders were covered by blanket, he
having given his shirt to fellow suf-
ferer.
From this party the Associated Press
correspondent, who returned by the
Salvor, learned that the signals seer

suit of which the Egeria's blue Jackets

ARMY MEN INVOLVED.
Inside History of Santo Domingo
Filibustering Expedition.

United States Army officers and govern
ment officials were mentioned in New York
yesterday in testimony concerning the 1897
Fanfta ilibustering expedition of Gen Jim
inez former president of Santo Domingo,
which started from Mobile. Ala, and pro-
ceeded to Monte Christi. Santo Domingo.
The testimony given by Joseph L..
Cunningham, who is seeking in the Supreme
Court 10 recover S23,000 from Jiminez for
services which he claims he rendered TO the
expedition He testified that he offered both
TO Jiminez and to Gen. Morales, who was
killed in the expedition, to see several
United States officials and politicians for
the purpose OF obtaining aid for the fill
busters.
The real object of the expedition, he said
was the capture of the, republic of Santo
Domingo for the insurgents. with a view to
obtaining SANTANA Bay as coaiIng station
foc the United States, q scheme which had
been a favorfte one of Gen. Grants
Cunningham testified that he had sent In
bill to Gen. Jtminez for $65. 600 which the
general said he considered was rather large
for what were services really rendered to
the United States. and offered him 25,CO0.
which he said he never received.
After further testimony Justice Fftxger-
alb dismissed the complaint on the ground
that one OF the conditions OF the note by
whieh was alleged that Jtmtnez agreed
to pay $4,000 was that payment was com
dfti0nal upon a regular government being
established In Santo Domingo By the revo-
lutionary party Within two m0nthA and that
no proof had been presented to astahlish
that fact.

the exterior OF the body just AS II is seen
under the microscope on the real thing.
Most Of the insect wings are composed
Of very fine oelluloid, which can be cut and
bent into the natural form. One Of the
hardest things TO produce is the oodling
moth, because it has its coating OF feathers,
as seen under q powerful magnifying glass,
but this woman bug artist has initiated the
feathers also both in shape and color.
When she starts 10 work on an insect
model Mrs. Heidemann first makes a draw
ing Of the same proportions as the model.
This is executed from q bug placed under
her microscope and carefully studied as to
shape and proportions. 1t takes a long
thine to finish the drawing, but when il is
completed she has a pattern which saves
much time in modelling.
Perhaps she first makes the legs. then the
wings, and after all the body, joining the

the structure of the insect.

To the casual eye one mosquito is pretty
much like another. II seems that way
because our vision is not adapted for dis
tinguishing, small details of structure, but
there are many species Of mosquitoes,
which differ widely in appearance, physical
makeup and habits Seen under a power
full magniier the malaria mosquito is alto
gether unlike the yellow fever mosquito,
and neither Of them resembles at all closely

that eats the c~otton's foe, the kelep or
Guatemalan ant, which has been imported

The kelep is not really an ant, but more
properly speaking antlike. 1t is, in fact,
a species entirely new to science, a social
inseot related to the wasps.
At home in Guatemala it dwells in colonies
OF 500 or 400 individuals in burrows under
