Tho story of tho loss of tlio British steamer Hu pen, on her voyage from this city to Hong Kng, via Java, has been received in this city, and the details show that tho loss of tho vessel was accompatiiod by a, far greater loss of llfo than tho cabled roports told of. Tlio vessol sprung a leak after leaving Java with a cargo of sugar for Hong Kong. Tho Chineso crow refused to work. Tho ship's boats, with ono exception, wero destroyed during a storm, and tho crew built a number of rafts, launching them and sotting them afloat, leaving the captain und ono passenger on boar the sinking vessel. Tho Europeans t cupied ouojuft and tho Chineso M en divided on six or seven others. Tho rafts were sooii surrounded by huudrods of ravenous sharks, which, in thoir eagerness to get at tho ship wrecked sailors, jumped far out of tho water. Soon several of tho Chinese rafts woro overturned, and it was then that tho Europeans decided, to return to the vessel. Tho only remaining boat was repaired and launched, tho captain taking command. Tho island of Lubaud, in tho Philip pine group, was finally mado, and tlio natives, on learning that tho uiarinors were British subjects, mado them com fortable and later sont them to Manila. Nothing was over heard of tho Chinoso crew, numborlng 45, and thoy must havo been drowned aud devoured by tho pursuing sharks.
