PANAMA , July 24. The latest ad

of the destruction of the Chilian trars-
pert ' 'Loa , " nit the Amazon BS was
previi u ly announced. Hie demol-

life , the vessel having got foul cf a
torpedo which vras Itt loose by one of
the provi ion boats 11 the bay of Cal-
lao The nffdir may bo summed up
an fdliAvs : From the lime the
Chilian fleet has been on the coatt cf
Peru it Ins been norced that the of-
fictra slid men were pirt'cularly par
tiiil to fruits and vegct-ibleg , not be
ing always careful to distinguish be
twi on the market boat of a natural
merchant vessel aud the coasting
boat of a Peruvian olliccr. At last
Peruvian commander hit on a plm to
turn it to Rome practical account.
Procuring a suitable launch , he put a
torpirdu into it and over this he placed
: i Lilse bottom resting on springs kept
ilown by the weight of the cargt. He
then leiiied it with a very
choice nsjtrtiuent of trulls
fowls , turkeys , vesotables , itc , and
towing it out towards .he blockading
pquadron baf re dayii ht set it adrift.
All day long the Uuii.h floated about
liut : he Chilians failed to notice it
mid about Fi oVlock in the evening ,
fearing it would fall into neutral
hands , a boit naa sent out to bring
it in. The "LoV was doing duty nd
neeiug the boat from the shore making
toward it , made for it. Seeing this ,
the boit from the ehoro beat a
lusty retreat , the "Loa , " toward two
boats to Uke in the prize , and it was
broug it alonij ida and tha discharge
at onca c immenced. As the weighi
in the launch was diminished the ma
cbinsry in connection with the tor
pedo was act free ami in a raomen' '
300 pounds of dynamite wore ezplodec
nnd the "Loa' ' was almost lifted of
the water. The effect , as detcnbtd by
thoec who were witnessing the opera
tion with breaihlei-s interest from the
ahorr , WLB airfoil in the extreme.
Erery house in CalUo waa shaken to
its foundation and -very ship on the
bay fluvurod as though a fearful eanh-
rjualctt IMU Ejiont its lury 'ncath them.
The fatal ship appeared as if envoi-

Bteru while her bows went high in the
air and tha Lo * disappeared forever.
At this time the "Bianco , " "Eucala-
da , " and the "Huaficar , " wore some
eight milca distant from the cccncanc
could nol render any assistance , bu1
boats from the neutral vessel near by
were lowered immediately and pro
ceeded to the rcssue of those who
rrere Ecen in the water. The boats
Euccceded in picking up thirty. Forty
in all were picked up , of whom It is
thouzlu many will die. At least one
hundred and fifty men perished. The
only office ) B saved are the eeconc
commander , the dostor and the engi

Lima B vys that , altr oush the Chilian
admiral had aureed to ullow foreign
ers to leave Cullao and Lima on neu

great objection to their leaving nnd
that tou or twelve thousand foreigners

Spesl&l dispatch to The Dee.
NEW YORK , August 3 , 4 p. m. Dr.
Tanner was reported this morning very
weak , but in better condition than
expected. He is so far gone , however ,
as to ba completely exhausted lifter
any exertion. It is thought he has
been drinking too much water of late ,
but the fierce thirst that consumes
lira calls imperiously for instant satis-
action. Hot being able to drink suf-
3cient water for hii neads he sponges
tiis face and wraps wet towels
around his head hoping thus to
ab < orb asoiall amount of moisture.
Oulv four days from this noon and
Tanner w.ll have completed his task ,
but everyday findshimweaker though
confident. Ttiu f.ietcr is advised to
keep quieter and not to waste his
strength in exercise.
A secret and tndrp ° ndent corps of
watchers was org < n zed some time
ago , to watch the regular watchers
aud Tanner at Iho same time , and as
certain , if possible , whether the faster
was receiving foodfroin some unknown
source. Tanner's every movement ,
day and night , is closely observed , but
nothing has occurred t3 give tlio
slightest ground for suspicion.
Special Dlsnatch to The Bco.
KEW YORK , August 4 , 1 a. rn.
Tanner changed Ins quarters yester
day fr < in 'he ' largo hull to the sin ll
one underneath it on a level with the
entrance. The fasting man is evi
dently very weak , but still parsis's in
persevering , and is apparently as con-
lident as ever that ho will hold out
till the eud of the fortieth day. His
stomach is not so troublesome as it
vas Sunday and Monday. It is believed -
lieved , howpver , 'hat his stomach
must be greatly inflamed and his un
usual wakefulness durir.g the morning
was attributed by one of the wa"che s
to a touch of gastric fever. On re
turning to the hall at 0:15 from his
drive , Tanner said that ho felt but
little refreshed. It was decided to
abandon driving in ti.e future as the
consequent fati ue is too great for his
enfeebled condition. He did not
sleep any till about noon wheu he Isy
down on hm cot. H complained of
being bothered by the visitors and said
that at times he foil , as though his
heart would step beating. Shortly
before 2 oMock he was induced to bo
weighed , being the first time since
Saturday. Ho turned the scile at
125i pounds
Ho then laid down on his cot and
rested until four o'clock , whin ho getup
up and read his mail. Amonp his let-

time.In conversation with on < 3 of
his attendants ho said that ha ex
perienced more difficulty in tin PX-
oeriment hero than what he did in
Minnt-sota which was part y due to
the difference in air. He wt.8 of the
opinion that people suffered more
from too much food rather than not
ennuch. He said ho felt first rate
and thought he would pull throush all
right. Ho went out to get shavtd and
when he returned to the hnll ho r-m
up stairs at a lively gait and laid down
on his C"t with his clothes on , and at
nine o'clock he requested visitors to
leave as he wanted to retire for the
night. Ho lay very quiet till mid
night and at that hour was app rently
sound asleep. Ho consumed two-
birds of n pint of wa cr during the
.wentj-four houn ending at that time.
