 Following the three deaths record ed last night came the news today that a life boat containing Captain eynder and ten other persons had been lost.
 The steamer Roanoke. for Portland. which passed opposite Tillamook to- day. was seen to pick up something, but there Is only faint hope that 1t was the missing boat with Captain Synder and ten other persons.
 Another fife boat. containing Mate Johnson and nine others were saved by the schooner Oshkosh. which put to sea last night from Astoria to as- sist the stranded steamer.
 The three persons drowned last night were Mrs. L. A. Holdredge, Port land, Ore: Nellie Hunter, of Napa. Calf, and Henry Wickman, of the life saving crew from the Garibaldi beach station.
 Captain Takes To Boats.
 The Argo showed indications of turning turtle last night and Captain Synder ordered all on board to take to the boats Mate Johnson commanded one boat. Captain Synder another. The two boats became separated In the mist and rough seas. Johnson's boat was picked up by the oshkosh. which had been beating up and down the coast in an effort to discover the Argo
 IL is believed. Captain Synder tried to make the shore with his boat and that fn the effort the craft was over turned as na aigns of the boat were seen. although the oshkosh made an all night search.
 The known dead are:
 Nellie Hunter. Napa, Calif.
 Mrs. L. A. Holdredge. Portland. Ore.

DEFENDER CHAIRMAN
 IS SURE OF VICTORY
CLAIMS OF AlIENDERS
STATEMENTS BY JACKSON AND
 LAwRENCE.
The ohio Man wurns Voters to Be On Gnard Against Dfshenest Mnn- ' agers at the
 Polls.

Birmingham, Nov. 27.-(Speciail-- l-- Fred M. Jackson, chairman or the State Campaign Committee Of the amenders and Rev. Brooks Lawrence. superintendent of the Anti-saloon League, gave out statements today m which they claim that the ma,orisy in the State for the amendment VIII be 15.000. MT. Lawrence intimates that the managers of the state will be dishon- est in mana gins the election and urges that they must be watcikd.
 Mir. Jackson made the following statement:
 '.Tht enemies of prohibition have the best of 1t in eleven counties. Sev- en other counties are in doubt The other forty-nine counties the amend ment will carry by majorities ranging from 50 to 500, except in Jefferson, where we will win by anywhere from 1,250 to 1000.
 Mobile and Montgomery will give the only majorities against the amendment that will amount to much, and Jefferson will offset both of them put together. That is. the single county of Jefferson will stand off both the other large counties where the enemy is expecting to get his strength.
 "The majorities in the counties aside from Jefferson. Mobile and Montgomery win all be small. and the side which gets the most counties will win the election. The single county Of Chambers for the amendment will kill the majorities of any two of the opposition counties. As we will carry nearly three counties to their one. 1t is for the amendment merely mat ter of the size of our majority in the forty-nine counties.
 According to our figures. the min irnum majority for the amendment giving the benefit of every doubt to the brewers and their allies. will be not less than f5.000."
 Brooks Lawrence made this state ment:
 We come to the closing hours Of the campaign with everything point ing to decisive victory for the pro- hibition amendment.
 "The campaign has been one of tx treme viiiification and abuae by the platform speakers of the liquor or ganisati0n and their newspaperHs The anonymous cartoons and literature they have sent out have doubtless preJudiced the minds of some voters who would otherwise ba with ws. but the reports from tho entire State indi- cFte that the a1suotitlhn will not car- ry more than fifteen ceanfiea.
 '-rhe size Of the majority win tIe-, pend upon the aiAes Of the. total vote. and the reports coming 10 our office Indicate that the majority for the will be in the neiEhbor- hood of 15.000.
 This estimate is based upon an honest election and an honest count of the ballots. and believe that the cit- izenship of Alabama are so aroused on the subject that evs.:. voting box in the Statelwiil be closely svatched and an honest count assured"

 qua Allan.

washington. Nov s27 - There is reason to believe that the State De- pertinent has at last received a communication from Mir. caldera, the American Vice Consul at Wanagua, but the contents of his message so far have been kept a profound secret, and if the department has received any thing from Nicaragua recently of an important character. 1t Is likewise be- ing withheld.
 The report that the United States Is in communication with President Diaz of Mexico with references to some joint action in the NlcaFaguan situa- tion IS discredited In some quarters. but nevertheless there is reason to be- lieve that te,egrams relating to Me- aragua are passing between the two countries. s.HgF It was stated at the department that 1t was extremely unlikely that any of ficial announcement of importance concerning Nicaragua would be made earlier than Sunday night or Monday morning. This is assumed to indi- cate that, matters of consequence are under consideration which may be ex- pected to culmInate about that time,
 Reports which have come From Nic- araRua by way of New Orleans to the effect that Henry Caldera, Vice Consul of the United States at Managua, the Capital of Nicaragua, has been im- prisoned or suffered violence at the hands of President Zslaya, are given credence here in no quarter.
 The State Department, which is in close touch with the situation through the commander of the United states gunboat vicksburg, at Corinto. who would, within twenty-four hours af- ter such news reached him. have been on the scene of action, has had no re- ports of the imprisonment Of Vice Consul Caldera. ,a
 genor Castrillo, representative of senerai Estrada, of the Provisional Government, discredits the report and declares he believes there is no truth in 1t.
