The Capture et the Rumor.
as TOLD EY THE CUILIANS—TUR SMALL
REMNANT or ADMIRAL GRAD,
Panatna, Nov. 22, --The Milian report
of the capture of the Huasoar differs
but little from; the Peruvian reports.
The only part of admiral Grau's body
that ootild be found was his foot and
leg, identified by his boot. Taking in-
to consideration the prisoners and
wounded and dead, over sixty of the
Huasoar's crew are still missing, It
is believed some were blown overboard,
and many annihilated. The Haas -
car's engines are in good order; $80,-
000 will put her in fighting order. It
is stated that Admiral Gran's note
book seriously implicates many people
on the coaste,icteresled by nationality,
in the war. At the time of the Hues -
car's surrender it was difficult to find
anyone to run the risk of coming up to
lower the flag, four in sueoessiou hav-
ing lost their lives in the attempt, un-
til it was euceessfully accomplished by
a negro.
"NOT A SOUL SAVED."
LOSS OF THE LAKE STEAMER WALrnUNO.—
SHL I5 SUPPOSED ? TO HAVE GONE DOWN
WITHOUT A MOMENT'S WARNING NO TR,A.CE
oe THE CREW OR PASSENGERS.
Collingwood, Ont., Nov. 2G.—The
tug Mary Ann returned 'Wednesday
night from the scene of the wreck of
the steamer yWaubuno, with portions
of the upper works, several mattresses
and other articles, all of which belong-
' ed to the ill-fated steamer, ;after mak-
ingathorough and diligent search of two
days, aud fiudiug nothing of the crew
or passengers. Mr. T. Long, Secre-
tary of the Georgian Bay Tl•anspora-
tiou Company, who was on board the
Mary Ann, gives it as his opinion that
the `STaubnuo has foundered between
liope Island and gone Rock, and that
all on board have perished. The fact
of not finding the remains of the three
b rate leata.s it to be supposed that she
sank almost simultaneously, and be•
fore the boats could be got vut of the
davits.'
Parry Souud, Nov. 26.-.\ttwo o'cio k
Wednesday afternoon the tug Ddillie
Grew, accompanied by the tug Rescue,
returned to Parry Sound from the
scene of the wreck of the Steamer
1'daulenno. The captain reports hav-
ing examined a number of o•lt-tying
islands, lint not the slightest trace of
the passengers or crew was found, nor
is there any probability that a soul es-
caped. A great quantity ;of pieces of
the upper r.wurae of the steamer were
strewn along the shore, and also a
quantity of freight. Several oars at d
life preservers were found, hut no trace
of the two woodeu boats. The tng
Mary Aran arrived at the islands from
ColIingwood at about nine o'clock Wed
