June 1 for this port, has returned here
and reports that the Aden was totally
lost off the island of Socotra, at the
eastern extremity of Africa, during the
. morning of June 9.
The Aden carried 34 passengers from
China and Japan. The captain of the
Irrecked steamer, some of her officers
and crew and seven white passengers
were swept overboard and drowned
very soon after she ran ashore. Eight
lady passengers, nine children, two offi-

in a boat, but they have not been heard
of since, and little hope, owing to the
bad weather which has prevailed 5since,

sengers, 3 of the White members of the
crew and 33 of the natives who formed
part of the steamer’s crew. All these
persons were rescued just as the Aden
was breaking up. The survivors of the
wrecked steamer were brought to this
port by the Mayo and are being cared
for by the local authorities.
In all the drowned and missing in—
clude 25 passengers, 20 European ofh~
cers and 33 natives of the Aden’s crew.
The island of Socotra is situated in
the Indian ocean, 120 miles east of Cape
Guardafui, the eastern extremity of
Africa. It is about 70 miles in length
from east to west, and its greatest
breadth is about 20 miles. Socotra be—
longs to Koshin, a petty state of Ara-
bia, whose sultan is subsidized by the
British, who also subsidize the governor
of Socotra. The sultan has no direct
control over the island, which has a
population of about 4.000 to 5,000, mosr—
ly Arabs, negroes and descendants of
Portuguese. The climate is more tem-
perate than on the adjoining continent.

WINDING UP THE J UBILEB.
Queen Victoria Again In London—A Visit
to Her Birthplace.
London. June 29.—The queen returned
to London this afternoon, her final jubi-
lee day but one, and made what proba-

celebration that closes at Aldershot on
next Thursday her state jubilee ap—
pearances, it is generally understood.
will be finished, and henceforth she .will
confine herself to such work for the state
as can be done at Windsor, Balmoral or
Osborne. All public official functions
will be relegated in the future, as they
have been for some time in the past, to
the Prince and Princess of Wales.
The knowledge of this lent deep in-
terest to today’s proceedings, which in-
cluded, in the first place, a visit to Ken-
sington, her birthplace and the place
where it was first announced to her that
she was queen. The day was also the
anniversary of the coronation. The
queen arrived at Paddington at 12:35
p. m. She was in the best of health and
walked with less difficulty than usual.

Sergius of Russia and Princess Beatrice
of Battenberg occupied seats in her car—
riage. The same ceremonies were ob-
served as on her arrival a week ago, a
commanding officer’s escort of the Life
guards being in attendance. The route
was by the Bayswater road to Church
street, via the Mall, Kensington. Such
parts of the route as had not already
been decorated were furbished forth in
the draperies, “flags, mottoes and fes-
toons made familiar last week in other
parts of London.
Proceeding along Church street to St.
Mary Abbots,”a halt was made to re—
ceive an address from the inhabitants
of her birthplace. Six hundred chil-
dren of the Kensington Church school
were assembled on a platform inside
the railings, and sang the national an-
them as the queen passed. After re-
ceiving the address, the procession re-
sumed the route to Buckingham palace
via High street, Queen’s gate, Kensing-
ton gardens, past the Albert memorial,
to Hyde park corner and thence to the
palace.
Thoughout the entire distance there
were dense walls of spectators, many
of whom, having missed Tuesday’s
function, had assembled to witness this,
lining the route and vigorously cheering
the queen. The queen looked greatly
pleased, and smiled and bowed in re-
sponse.

AN ABSURD R 3103..
Talk In Poughkeepsie to the Effect That
Cornell Wants to Be Beaten.
Poughkeepsie, N. Y., June 30.—Every
day at Poughkeepsie brings forth some
new rumor about the crews, which
spreads like wildfire for awhile, only to
die out from lack of corroboration.
There have been stories of sickness, of
accidents, of changes in the boats and
of dissatisfaction in the several crews
galore, but today comes the most sen-
sational one of the lot, that Courtney
is going to let his friend Ward win the
varsity race this week just to make the
defeat of Yale and Harvard by Cornell
a more bitter pillfor them to swallow.
It is hard to locate the origin of this
story, but that it has been believed is
shown by the groups of collegians who
excitedly relate it and by the telegram:
that flood the town asking for some
confirmation of it. This naturally can-
not be obtained, as Courtney denies it
and Ellis Ward laughs when question-
ed and only says ambiguously that
“the best crew will win.” But never-
theless Pennsylvania stock has gone
up wonderfully since Saturday. Co~
lumbia’s stock, too, has risen, as sev-
eral rowing authorities who have
watched the work of the “blue and
white” crews the last two days have
expressed some very favorable opin-
ions. These reports, coming right upon
those about Cornell’s being stale and
liable to be shaken up, have made the
outcome of both this week’s races very
problematicai and consequently more
interesting. .
Shdnld either Columbia or Pennsyl-
vania defeat Cornell rowing affairs
would/be in a pretty mess indeed.

currence. .

able to announce that England’s reply
will be that the government is willing
to reopen the India mints, to make a
further substantial contribution to the
rehabilitation of silver by extending its
use in England, by increasing the legal
tender of silver, making silver the basis
of notes and empowering the Bank of
England to use its silver reserve, and
that material assistance and strong
moral support will be given to the ob-
ject the United States and France have
in view.”
