.Another dispatch to a private shipping
firm from Guatemala states that the
steamer narraeeute. which has been cruis-
ing about the scene of the wreck in search
of survivors. has picked up a raft with
nine passengers from the Collins. Peters
being among the number.

The Barreccuta has not yet put into
post, but the Pacific Hall oiliciais suggest
that the vessel probably signaled a smaller
vessel, which put into port to convey the
news of the rescue to the nearest town and
thence telegraphed to Guatemala. The
latest news received here up to 5 o'clock
was contained in the following message:

“Corners. Mexico, May iii.-Six surviv-
ers of the steamer Colima have reached
here. They are John Thornton. K. E.
Chllbsrg of Seattle, cabin passengers; Pc-
ters and Vindor and Scamen Gonzales
and Johnston. They are said to have
reached shore on a raft. and another raft
with’five men is reported from r'an Tel-

The survivors state that the women and
children were all in the staterooms. and
all went down with the steamer. The ear-
vivors also report that Purser Waiter was
seen in a well manned beet pulling away
from the sinking steamer toward shore.
It is supposed that this boat is still afloat.

the mine of the building in which that
chain was made. They are known as
the old Augusta forgo. The western
gable and the sonth‘wall are all that are
standing. It was never anything but a
low stone building, a few feet square
and built by a country mason. It was
called a forge because there iron was re
duced from the era by the old fashioned
charcoal method. and its counterparts
were common allover the country with-
in thelast half century. It was own :d
by the Sterling Iron: Mine Comwtny, one
of the large iron manufacturers of the
day. Here was reduced the iron taken
from the mine, four miles west. and the
links hammered out by hand.

When it became apparent to the Con-
tinental War Department that a chain
was noccsmry to prevent vessels going
above the neutral ground. Secretary
Pickering consulted Mr. Townsend. one
of the iron kings of tliedayund an own~

the noighlmring farmers with their ox

and two and a quarter inches square,
each weighing about 150 Willi-is. When
put together the chain had a swivel at
every hundred feet. It was about 1.5)0
feet long and weighed 180 tons. It was
buoyed up by sixteen foot logs. winted
