A t 2 o ’cio<< yes terday afternoon she was sight l run ning with the gale under a tori, main sail. An attempt was made to enter Muskegon harbor, but the schooner drifted a m ile south of the piers and then anchor was dropped. She was riding three-quarters of a m ile from shore at dark. The engineer and fire man of the city pumping station watched the lights until 9 o ’ clock last night, when they disappeared. Short ly afterwards wreckage began com ing in, and today uothiug can be seen of the lost boat above the water where she anchored. A ll night long the wreckage continued to come up on the beach, and five bodies have been re covered. The names of the dead can not be learned, as nothing about the clothing w ill identify them. The sur vivin g sailor was washed ashore un conscious, and nothing can be learned from him. The Waukesha was one o f the old fleet of “ canalers,” and true to a ll tradition, she has taken almost her en tire crew down with her in her last disaster. She was owued by F. H. Head, of Chicago, and wsa form erly known as the Nabob. She was b u ilt in Manitowoc, in 18tl4, and rated at 205 tons. This evening Frank Delach, the only survivor of the wreck, made affidavit to the effect that there were seven men aboard the Waukesha, Cpatain Dun can Corbett, the mate, four seamen and a colored cook. When they a r rived of Muskegon he says the captain, mate and some o f the others were very drunk. They signaled for a tug-boat, but showed no signs of distress signals, and no tug, under the circumstances, started out in the heavy sea. The cap tain anchored a m ile south of Mus kegon harbor. The craft began leaking badly, but the captain refused to ligh t the torch to make known their condi tion to the life-saving crew. The crew donned life preservers, their yaw lboat having been washed away. They let go the larger anchor cable and the schooner drifted toward shore some what, with the smaller anchor drag ging gradually, a ll hands taking to tbe forward rigging. The craft, however, began sinking rapidly, and a sudden lurch threw some o f the men from the foremast. As a part of them d u n g to the riggin g the mainmast broke off and fell upon them, striking some of them and sweeping all into the lake. Delach said he contrived to get to gether a raft from the wreckage, to which five of the men hung for a time. They dragged the captain w ith them, but he was too helplessly drunk to hold on, and they had stood it un til 5 o'clock in the morning, but finally the other men gave up and sank, and Delach was shortly afterward taken off by the life-saving crew.

Although the fact of Mr. W i l liam s’ presence in Spain escaped tbe vigilan oe of tbe newspaper correspond- enta in the Spanish capital, it is n ev ertheless true that he has been in M adrid for three weeks past, and in the im m ediate circle o f hia fam ily it was announced that he was to leave for N ew Y o rk by one of the North German L lo yd liners on Saturday last. W h ile tbe fact cannot, for ohviona reasons, be definitely learned, it is gen erally believed by hia personal friends that Mr. W illia m s ’ v isit to Spain baa been as an agent o f the United States, w ith the view o f m aking some anauge- ment by which a peaceable solution of the Coban question m igh t be brought about. It w ill be remembered that, on re 1 turning from Havana, Mr. W illiam s spent some tim e in W ashington, where he had several lengthy interview s w ith President Cleveland and Secretary Olney. He then le ft for Europe, sail in g September 18, it being generally supposed that his trip was taken for rest and in the interest o f his health. He first visited England and then crossed over to France, and, as it now transpires, proceeded thence to Madrid, where he has been for a little over three weeks.

One m ilium in g o U was offered in Bos ton. The -ubtreasurer telegraphed the secretary for instructions, stating that the current w orkin g force was some what behind o w in g to the flnrry, and the payment o f this amount of currency would leave the subtreasnry incon veniently snort. Instructions were issued authorizing the, acceptance of h alf the amount offered. The N ew Y o rk snbtreasnry, it ia un derstood, have given notioe that they would receive gold today in exchange for currency. There are 6,400,000 assay office checks outstanding, whioh are now being deposited for currency. The demand for currency, especially for small bills, in anticipation of a re v iv a l o f bnsiness, ia exceptionally heavy.
