Missing Havana Agent of Ceballos &

ship Carmelina, with Manuel Silveira,

appearance from Havan, was said to
have brought about the failure Of
Ceballos & Co., and his wife and two
children. steamed into Curacao a
week ago last Sunday, according to
Capt. Bennett and several of the. pas
sengers and crew of the steamship
Zulia, Of the Red D. Line which
reached here today from Curacao
and Venezuelan ports.
H. B. Chase, a representative of a
lumber company Of this city, who re-
turned on the Zulia from La Quay
ra, said the Carmelin;a put into Cur
acoa early on Sunday, October Z, and
left on the forenoon Of the following
day after taking on coal, and osten-
sibly for Porto Cabello. Il was Gu
rious enough to look up the Carmel
mas passenger list" said Mr.. Chase,
"and l found the names Of Silverla'
his wife and two csher silveras, pre-
sumably children. I was told that
they landed at Curacao, saying that
they were going to New York proba-
Dly on the Zulia. I learned that they
shortly afterwards went to Porto Ca
bello. I thought it strange that they
should go TO New York from Havana
by way of Curacao.
Nobody paid much attention to
the CarmeIina," said Mr.. Chase, "be-
cause none of us knew anything
about Silveira or his connection with
the failure of Ceballos &, CO..
Substantially the same story was
told by Capt Bennett, who said he
recognized the Carmelina as she came
into Curacao and supposed she was
short of coal.
