VESSEL WRECKED,
CREW IS MISSING
Barkentine Luarca'S Hulk
Now a Derelict Off
Cape HatteraS.

NEW YORK, April 6-Somewhere off
Cape Hatteras in the direct path Of the
West Indian storm and of passenger
and freight liners is floating the dis
masted and abandoned barkentine
Luarca, a menace, as she lies so low
in the water II will be hard for a look
out to see her until almost upon her.
So serious is this obstruction to navi-
CATION that a revenue cutter is to be
sent at once to locate her. Where her
crew now is is a mystery.
The LuarCa's boats are gone. mute
evidence that the men who manned
her left in them. but what became Of
them Is unknown.
The steamer Morse Prince. I'm today
from Brazilian ports. fell in with the
I.uarca last Sunday in latitude 1880 and
longitude 7L45. A boats crew was sent
aboard, but there was no life on the
barkentine.
A line was passed aboJrd and an ef-
fort made TO tow her But she has
seven feet Of water in the hold and her
weight was so unwieldy that the line
parted. The northwest gale and heavy
sea prevailed, and 1t was impossible for
the steamer tC get another hawser over,
so the LuarCa was abandoned.

Ella, viii not be allowed to land at Port
of Spain, on the Island Of Trinidad. by
direction OF the British government.
1t developed today that this action

ment and that representations were
made to the English foreign office by
the United States, asking that it be
taken.
Directions TO this effect, however, had
already been issued to the governor of
Trinidad when the request was made
The State Department has been in
communication with other countries
having territorial possessions in the vi
ctnity Of Venezuela and. although the
purpose Of this correspondence has not
been made public, II Is probably to
keep Castro from landing on any soil
near his own country, in order to pre-
vent the possibility of a revolution
Castro was today at Point au Prince,
Guadeloupe, whore the vessel on which
he is a passenger, the Guadeloupe, was
a caller. but. according TO advices
received here, he did not try to land.
Her next stopping place is Basse-Terre.

lcne, the nine-year-old daughter Of Mr..
and Mrs. Antonio BolOne, OF Ardsley.
came across the dead body OF the child
at 10 o'clock this morning in tbs woods
bordering the Jenkintown road.
The only bruise disclosed by a hUr-
ried examination OF the Child's body
was broken nose, and the manner in
which the little girl met her death is a
mystery the police are now trying to
solve
One theory advanced by the residents
Of Weldon. near where the childs body
was discovered, is that she was acci-

the body carried to the woods to create
the impression that she came to her
death there.
The point where the body was found
was about seventy-fve yards back from
the road, and near the body was large
rock The police are OF the opinion that
the child fell and struck her head upon
the rocks, and place little credence in
the theory that she was the victim of
an automobile.
