NZW YORK. Nov. I.—-Slx miles 00' Barne-
gnt, on the Jersey coast, on Thursday even-
ing was the steamship Vixcayn on her way
to Havana. Near by was an unknown and
probably unseen schooner. The night was
clear—the moon shining brightly; the sea
smooth. The hour was half put eight.
Seven minutes later both vessels were at
the bottom of the sea. and with them sank
eighty-one of their passengers and crews.
In these seven minutes a collision and
death struggle with the waves had taken
place. a scene had occurred which even the
dozen survivors cannot give the details of
without stopplugw make sure that it is
not all a horrible dream.
Fourteen of the Dead.
The entire lot of passengers of the Viz-
cnya were lost. Their names are: Senor
Juan Pedro, a partner of the firm of J. M.
Ceballos 8; C0,. of this city, and one of the
owner: of the lost steamship; M. A. Calvo,
wife and son; M. Parr and two children;
Mr. A. Ruiz, Jose Acaibin. Ramon Al—
varez, Juan F. Iledman.03corlslam,1.igui
Pnllion and Jew M. Garcia.
Twelve of the crew of seventy—seven were
saved from the steamship. The fate of the
crew of the schooner is still unknown. The
first news received of the disaster in this
city was when the steamer Humboldt. from
Brazil, arrived at her dock in Brooklyn
having on board the twelve survivors of the
catastrophe, which she had picked up at
daybreak.
Saved by the Humboldt.
Capt Black. of the Humboldt, said that
at daybreak his ship was off Barns-gut
light. Suddenly from their off port bow
came 14 cry for help. Peering in that direc-
tion through the mist of the early morning
the officers of the Humboldt new three
manta sticking out of the water, and cling-
ing to the yards and rigging people were
seen. Quickly a boat was lowered and rowed
to the unfortunate people. There were
twelve of them—all sailor's—clinging to the
spare, and their joy was unspeakable when
they were taken in the boat. They all be-
longed to the steamship Vizcayn. and their
names are as follows:
Felipe linens. first ofiicer; Gsbriel‘Covaa.
second omcer; Francisco Scorn. first en-
gineer; Dr. Andres Rico. surgeon; Sereuo
Carlos. F. Lopez, Juan 53ij, Angel Leon,
Jone Mcndiunn Carncrro, Ramon Martinez,
Ramon Perez and P. Arellano. seamen.
Just In the Nick of Time.
The men were chilled to the bone from
their exposure to wind and wave, and
could hold out but a little longer. They
were taken on board the Humboldt,
brought to this city and taken at. once to
the office of .l. M. Cebnlloa 81'. (30.. ill Wall
street, the owners of the Vizcnyn. The
firm had received notice of the loss of their
vessel from the Maritime exchange but n
few minutes before the survivors walked
into the office. For the next hour all was
excitement in the office of Cebnllos d: (‘0.
None of the survivors could talk English,
and for some time it was impossible to ob
tnln from any of them a correct account of
the wreck. From Dr. Rico the best account
wan obtained. llr. Rico said:
Dr. Itlm’n Graphic Story.
"Everything was working nicely. The
weather was fine. the moon shone bright
and the sea was smooth It was about. 8
o ‘clock when I was on deck. and took nfew
turns back and forth while “licking an
nfterdlnuer cigarette l didn't see any
vessel near us. The ship was in charge of
the first. officer, who was on the bridge. I
went down to the saloon then and there
met Mn. Calvo. We ant down and began
talking. Suddenly I heard the gong in the
engine room ring the 'ntop' signal. Be-
fore 1 could even wonder what it was for.
there came an awful shock, a crushing,
scraping sound on the deck over our heads.
and the steamer rolled over on her port
side. Everybody in the saloon was thrown
down. All was excitcmeutr—meu, women
and children shrieking for help—4mm what
they didn't know. Mrs. Cairo seized my
hands and begged me to find and save her

the deck to find him.

“When one of the men on the yard said
he thought he heard a steamer passing by
we all hallord an loud as our numb condi
tion would permit us to. Then a boat
made its appearance. and we were taken
on board the Humboldt We could not
have held out. much longer."
The Second 0134mm Story.
From the second ofilcer some more facts
were obtained. lie was on deck standing
under the bridge when the collision or,
curred. He said the steamer's lights were
burning all right and the watch on deck
at their posts. 1111 did not see the schooner
until the first officer on the bridge rang
the nignnl to stop.
”At the time he rang to stop,” said the
second officer. "Capt. Clinill bad just come
from supper and was going up on the
bridge. Before he had timeto move the
schooner struck us. her bowsprit striking,
and as for as I could see instantly killing
Capt. Cunill. Our headway carried us
along. and that bowsprit knocked down
bridge house and rigging. I was covered
by the debris and badly cut in the head
and side of my neck. I got out of the tan-
gle about the time the water commenced
to run over the decks, and then I took to
the rigm'ng with the others."
A Seaman's Account.
One of the shipwrecked men was seen on
board the Guided Condol, another ship of
Cebulloedr. Co.. laying at. pier 21, North
river. He told practically the same story
as Dr. Rico and Second Ofiicer Covas. add—
ing that at the time of the collision nearly
all of the Vizcaya’s crew were asleep. being
worn out with the hard work attendant
upon leaving port. Only those on duty
were up and about. He said that before
the lssblngs of the boats could be taken
off preparatory to lowering them the Viz~
caya’s decks were under water. He saw
several persons in the water clinging to
floating debris. spars, batches and wreck—
age, but all these soon sunk.
A Sugar King Among the Lost.
It is stated that Senor Calvo, who per.
ished with his wife and son, was a partner
in the house of Francine a: (10.. of Havana,
the biggest and richest sugar house in
Cuba» He was on his way home with his
family.
The \‘izcaya was one oi the steamers of
the Companin 'l‘rnnsotlnntica, owned by
J. .‘J. Ceballoslit' Co. She had just been
overhauled. and this was her first trip after
being refitted. She was of 1.3911 tons regis—
ter. 287 feet long and bad accommodations
for fifty passengers. She was barkeutine
rigged. The cargo of the Vizc‘nya was a
general one, comprising lumber, provis-
ions, hardware, furniture and machinery.
The whole cargo was valued at $150,000.
The vessel was insured by the owners. The
Vizcaya was an iron vessel. and formerly
plied between New York and Mediterran.
can ports. Severn! theories are advanced
1m to the cause of the collision, but as none
of the survivors. according to their state-
ments. saw the schooner before she struck
the steamer. it is not and probably will
not be known just how the aflair happened.
An investigation will probably be made
by the company. Mr. Beatrice. of Cebsllos
& Co., was sent to Barnrgot as soon as
word of the disaster was received to see
what he could learn there. If. is expected
that some of the bodies will be washed
ashore at that point.
A Sketch of Juno Pedro.
Juan Pedro was thrice or four times a
millionaire, lie was born at Barcelona,
Spain. about the year 1&1. and was conse-
quently 50 years old. At. an early age be
left his native place and sailed for Cuba,
where some of his relatives were settled
and influential members oftbe community
Soon after his arrival at Havana he entered
into business partnership with his unrle,
Lorenzo Pedro. They conducted a large
wholesale provision house which made 11
specialty of supplying the plantations on
the island. After enjoying great prosperity
the partners separated amicably, and then
Juan Pedro turned his attention to sugar
planting.
In this business be amassed the most of
his great wealth and was still engaged in
its pursuit up to the time of his death. He
was the owner of two big plantations, one
known as La Conchita, at the village of
[31111111, or Alfonzo X”. as it is variously
styled. and another called The Assump-
tion, on the bay shore at Muriel. It was
on Sunday but only that he returned from
llnvre on the steamship linrgognc. offer a
tour through Europe with his wife and his
only son, who is married and lifts two
small children. Senor Pedro left his font
ily behind him in Paris, and immediately
after his arrival in New Yo ungngmi
passage on the Vizcayn, his long finance
from (‘uba having naturally made him
anxious to hurry back there to look after
his business interests.

1870 and 1880, while the rate of increase has
apparently diminished from 3). 08 to :34 5'1
per cent. If these figures were derived
from correct data they would indeed be
disappointing. Such a reduction in the
rate of increase in the face of the enormous
immigration during the past ten years
would argue is great diminuation in the
fecundity of the population or a correspond-
ing increase in its death rate. These fig-
ures are, however, easily explained when
the character of the data used is under-
stood. It is well known. the fact having
been demonstrated by extensive and thor-
ough investigation, that the census of 1870
was grossly deficient in the southern states,
so much so as not only to give an exagger-
ated rate of increase of the population be-
tween 1870 and 11130 in these states, but to
affect very materially the rate of increase
in the country at large.
The Census of 1880.
”Those omissions were not the fault, nor
were they within the control of the census
office. The census of 18110 was taken under
a law which the superintenden. Gen. Fran-
cis A. Walker, characterized as 'clnmsy,
antiquated and burlmrons,‘ the census of—
fice had no power over its enumerators,
save a barren protest, and this right was'
even questioned in some quarters."

After arguing and quoting the law to
prove that Secretary Noble can order a re
count if he so wills. Governor Bill says the
secretary's belief in the correctness of the
federal census is not. shared by the people
of New Y.ork He adds:
“Nor do the people of that. city nppenxl’o
share your belief in the unimpeachablo
character of the federal eunmerators. This
is a time for plain words. Every cum
orator selected to count the inhabitants of
that great Democratic city was a partisan
of the party now in control of the national
government, appointed for post political
servi.‘ and upon the recommendation of
their local party leaders. Many of them
were notoriously incom tent, ignorant
and careless. It was to tgir political in-
terest that the party from which they had
received patronage should be the benc-
ficiary of their labor.
” Under these conditions the suspicion is
hardly unjustifiable that. directly or indi-
rectly, political motives to a large degree
explain the defectivcness of the federal
count. Men and newspapers of both par-
ties have joined in condemning it. Under
these circumstances I trust that you will
yield your conviction tothat of the great
body of our citizens and take such action
as will determine to the general satisfac-
tion what is the actual population of the
city of New York."
