been heard OF since.
The Navy Department professed igno-
rance of the fact that the messenger was
sent and the reason for sending him re-
mains a mystery. The only explanation
advanced by either Department is that
the messenger had taken II upon himself
to go on to Mexico city, the explanation
being grounded on an unofficial report
received by the Spanish Ambassador here
Of the messengers arrival In the Mexi-
can capital.
Private PARKS and vice-Consul SILL

have been taken toward finding them. The
State Department IL endeavoring to ind
some man suitable for making a personal
investigation into the disappearance OF
Silliman.

Consul At Saltillo had been IN communi-
cation with other British officers for sew
ersl days In spite Of the battle which IL
going on there. Under these circum-
stances the hopes Of Silliman's safety are
waning.
