SEVENTEEN SENT TO SAN FRANCISCO Work Progressing of Rescuing the Victims. ns THE OFFICIAL REPORTS CITY OF MEXICO, May 31.—The total rumber of drowned in the Colima wreck, off the coast of Manzanillo, is now known to be 187 persons. Five more have been rescued from the wreck, making the total number living twenty-six. The ship car- ried 213 persons, and, to all appearances, these have all drowned, with the exception of the twenty-six. The living will be sent north as soon as possible, and seventeen have already taken passage for San Fran- cisco. z The accident is the most frightful in its Icss of life which has ever occurred in Mexican waters, and the Colima is a com- plete loss unless some of its cargo can be recovered by divers, which will probably be attempted. The ship was one of the largest and strongest of the Paeific Mail line plying between San Francisco and Spanish America and was sunk by strik- ing a coral reef in a dense fog. : The Official Report. SAN FRANCISCO, May 31.—The Chroni- cle has established communication with Manzanillo, and last night received the following dispatch: : CITY OF MEXICO, May 30.—It is now 7 p.m. and not a*single press dispatch has yet been received over the government wire from Manzanillo. The single wire circuit between Manzanillo and Mexico City has been at a glowing heat all day with official telegrams addressed to and sent by secretary of War Doa Hinojosa, though a few have also been received by Maj. R. B. Gorsuch, the Mexican represen- tative of the Pacific Mail in this capital. The gist of the dispatches received up to this time is as follows: At about 8 o'clock on the morning of the 27th, in latitude 18.38 north and longitude 104.14 west, the Colima struck a powerf:l veering wind and was driven on a coral reef and sunk, with a large hole stove in her side near the prow. Capt. J. F. Tay- lor, after displaying masterly skill in the management of his ship, was killed by a falling mast. The first pilot and first engi- neer were also killed, and soon after the boat struck she went down in 430 fathoms of water. Nearly twenty-four hours later the coast line steamer San Juan, passing along, picked up sixteen survivors and carried them into port. Five others swam ashore, and five more, three cabin passen- gers and two saloon, were subsequently rescued by a government boat sent out by the Pacific Mail Company's agent at -Man- zanillo. The Rescued. The names of three cabin passengers rescued by the government boat are not yet learned, but the names of the others are as follows: Themas Barbaria, Chas. Cushing, jr., A. J. Sutherland, K. H. Thorn- ton, Domingo Albano, W. H. Boyd, G. Rowan, Bruno Cerda, J. Antonio Solis, Louis Sangieness, Juan Bamos, John E. Manuen, George D. Ross, T. J. Oriel, C: los Ruise, Angel Cutierre, and Sailors Hau- sen, Avilere, Garosenter, Richardson and Fish, The department of war has ordered the government frigate Oaxaca, with complete wrecking outfit, to proceed from Mazatlan to the scene of the disaster to see what can be done in the way of salvage, and to render any assistance necessary. Every effort is being made by the government to aid in all interested. The Colima carried a very cargo, which was fully insured. The Work of the Rescue. An Examiner report from the City of Mexico says: Official advices received today bear out the main statements regarding the stéamer Colima in the specjal dis- patches to the Examiner from the City of Colima, via this city, with the exception that the wreck occurred below the port on the south-bound journey instead of at the harbor entrance. Up to today the difficulty of getting mes- sages over the wires from the west coast was unprecedented. Geo, Herbert, man- ager of the Manzanillo and Colima rail- road, assures your correspondent that it is thought the three passengers rescued by the Romero Rubello belong to the family of S. Flor. The Pacific Mail continues its efforts to rescue all possible, and do every humane service within its power. The Romero has found at the scene of the wreck the body of an unknown woman, who is apparently of Mexican origin. Mr. Herbert says the Baracouta sailed yester- day from Alculpo to do like service, under orders from the government. All mail for Colima has been lost. Mr. Herbert's dispatch says: “Later re- ports place the scene of the wreck thirty miles southeast of Manzanillo, and ten to fifteen miles off the shore, at Boca De Apisa, and it is now reported one woman, a Guatemalan, was saved and returned to San Francisco by the San Juan.” “Many inquiries have been recelved in city regarding the safety of individual engers, but all the saved appear to be already sent. . Whiting of California is evidently among the drowned, as diligent search has revealed nothing of his where: ee ereabouts up to President Diaz Informed. “f£ called at Chapultepec castle early this morning to interview President Diaz on the probable course of the government in general details connected with the acci- dent. I bore to the chief executive the first news of the catastrophe and he ex- pressed great sorrow. The government will care for the rescued. The burial of the Gead is being proceeded with today.” An Examiner *special from Manzanillo valuable “The number of survivors from the Co- lima is twenty-six. Three passengers and two sailors who were thought to be dead today appeared at a point on the coast below Manzanillo, and will reach here to- night. Their uames are unknown. The Colima bore 213 people altogether, and the death list has now gone up to 187 by official count. This is heavier than hereto- fore reported. The boat making the rescue of the five is the Romero Rubio, belonging to the government, which found them at Coahuayana. The rescued passengers an sailors now here will be borne to the no by the steamer Baracouta. The remaining seventeen have already left for the north, with San Francisco their ultima’ destina- tion, by the steamer San Juan Apparently a ‘Total Loss. + The Colima is apparently a total loss, and lies at the bottom of the sea about thirty miles below Manzanillo, beside the coral reet which stove in the vessel. The steamer lies on her side in 600 meters of water. The Colima had on board $100,000 in Mexican money, shipped from Mazatlan, ard insured by Echeguerren Brothers of that place, who at once reported by wire to the war department at the City. of Mexico, and asked its rescue. Immediate orders were thereupon issued to the com- mander of the Oaxaca to aid in the rescue work. M. E. Yazaguirre, commander of the port of Acapulco, at 5 o'clock this after- noon received the following dispatch from Vogel & Co., the Pacific mail agents at Manzanillo: “Colima was totally lost thirty southeast of Manzanilio and six mii. the coast. The Mexican stcam Rublo was sent to hunt for It has returned, giving information of the saving at Coahuayana of three cabin pas- sengers and two sailors. Up to date there are reported twenty-six per: saved ard i87 drowned. There were 213 persons abcard. We will send the saved passengers out by the Baracouta, which comes for that purpose tomorrow to embark the passengers, less the seventeen already taken for the north by the steamer San Juan.” .

David Brown, a young colored man, went to Luray lay and made the trip home through the caverns, and on his way he had a liquid, as he thought, for the pur- pose of refreshing himself. The liquid was not ice weter, but was “fire water,” and when the train reached this city David started home, but he was too w y to reach there without stopping to rest him- self. He stopped on New York avenue and sat on the curbstone. Soon he was asleep and when a policeman came along he got arrested. Judge Kimball heard the case this morning and released David on his own recognizance.
