A SPANISH SPY AMONG THE CREW 3 Made a Futile Attempt to Wreck the Vessel Tlie Captain Then Arrested. Kingston, Jamaica, Sept. 6. (Delayed in transmission) All circumstances point to the fact that on her last voyage the steamer Laurada included among her crew a Spanish agent and . spy. So far as known here bis identity has not been discovered. That the Laurada car ried a filibustering expedition to Cuba on this trip seenoB to be beyond all doubt, although there will probably be great difficulty in proving the fact, for the Spanish spy, who, it is now well known was on board, will hardly care to reveal himself in the witness box. -If the party is known no' action will be taken against him and be will not be disposed to " carry out to the end the part be has been playiDg as a hired spy. ' The explanation is . simply that this man attempted to wreck the veesel, or, should he appear to swear to the infor- - mation he possesses regarding the fili bustering part of the voyage, he Will bave to face a charge on this count, per contra.. If his identity has really been ascertained no legal action will be taken against him, as that might beg the qu.es tion as to his "possible testimony about the landing of the biggest fili bustering expedition of modern times The facts in eonnectfon with the stranding of the steamship 'at Port An- tonio', so far as the correspondent could ascertain, is that npon the arrival of the Laurada at Port Antonio, some, person gave information to the customs author ities that she bad been engaged in a fill bustering expedition and that there was a large qnahtity of rifles still on boord, which had not. been landed, but whicb. would be put ashore on the return voy age. The ship was searched before she proceeded to the oatport to take on her cargo of truit, but the arms were not Tfonnd. The informant thereupon' se cretly promised one of the customs offi cers that on the vessel's return from the outport he would find means to discover the place in which be was convinced Captain Murphy had concealed the arms, since they had not "left the vessel. ..." ' On the night of the first instant, as the Laurada was entering Port 'Antonio and the Lama was going 'out, the two vessels passing in the deep but intricate channel, the L'aurada had to veer to make wayof an, outward-bound ship At. the critical moment, and- with strong current running, the steering gear -of the Laurada gave way. At that mo ment the probable effect of the break down would have been to throw the Laurada across the- Lama's -bow and bring about a collision that would bave sent the former to the bottom. . As it happened, the current was swifter than the Lama and the Laurada escaped the latter's prow and was swept on the reef, By a singular piece, of good luck, she struck the one spot on the entire length of the reef where she could have Btruck without having her bottom knocked out, Of coarse, to all outward seeming, the whole thing bad the appearance of being an accident. But it was an accident . that : bids ' fair to end the days of the Laurada. She was placed between col lision and being smashed on the coral . reef, but escaped both, and gently lay ' her nose into a little bed of soft sand She bad to be lightened to get her off, and this fact indicates the agency of some deliberate intent, for through it the unknown informer was enabled to keep his word, a quantity of 'rifles hav ing been found on the vessel Ihjs time, The result was that Captain Murphy was promptly called up before the rest dent magistrate and although the Laurada was so slightly damaged by her contact with the reef, that she was able to proceed at once on her vovaee. Can tain Murphy had to provide recognizance before he. could leave the ielaud.. He made a cash deposit of 300 to aDDea on the 29th inst. to answer the charge of conveying contrabands ol -war and was allowed to sail. j - Absolutely Pure A cream of tartar bakine -nowder.'
