WASHINGTON , Nov. 8. A message re
ceived at the Navy department today from
; Captain Crownlnshleld , chief nf the naviga
tion bureau , who la In New York , called
attention to the report that thn Spanish
cruiser Maria Teresa had been seen off
Cat Island. The captain expressed his be
lief In the accuracy of the report and sug
gested to the department that the repair
ship Vulcan , now at Norfolk , bo sent at
once to make search for the derelict.
The department acted at once upon the
suggestion. A telegram was sent to the
commandant oj the Norfolk navy yard , di
recting him to place the Vufcan In com
mand of Captain McCalla , the captain of
the yard , and send It with all dispatch
to look for the Teresa. A similar order
was cabled to Captain Converse at Guantanamo -
tanamo , directing him to aend the wreck
ing tug Potomac from that place north
ward on the same t | cat. It goes In charge
1 of J. E. Craven and the department be
lieves It will be In the vicinity of Cat
Island within thirty-six hours.
The Vulcan was ono of the vessels which
was towing the Teresa when It was hup-
posed to have foundered and the department -
, ment believes that It will reach the scene
of the wreck In about forty-eight hours
| | nftej1 reaving Norfolk.
tlinnoo at .luvinsr ( he Ship.
Cat Island lies about thirty mlloa south
west of. the spot where the Teresa was last
tccnand It Is nald at the department that
It the veeccl did not founder outright
within a very few hours after having been
cut adrift it would almost certainly have
fetched up on the' shoal beach off Cat
Island , for the wind and tldo set directly
on that beach. If so , the location Is much
more favorable for saving the rhlp than the
position occupied by It off Santiago , where
the bottom was covered with rocks and tlio
wreckers worked at great disadvantage.
J Captain McCalla was selected for the taafc
because of bU great energy and ability
for this particular claea of work and the
officers declare that If any man can bring
the Teresa Into port ho can.
It la the belief of naval constructors that
the Teresa took water aboard almost al
together throughout the decks and not
through the hull , " as would appear from
the first accounts of the loss of the ehlp.
f These decks were rude temporary construe-
/ tlons and were entirely unsuitable for rough
V wcatbeY. The fact that the reports Indl-
\ cato that the ship settled by the head and
i .that water ran Into the coal bunkers and
"Ihenco Into the flrerooms goes to bear out
the constructors' theory. It also tends to
slve color to the report that the ship may
not have foundered at once but have drifted
, ashore on Cat Island.
NASSAU , N. P. , Nor. 8. No Information
Is obtainable hero which In any way tends
to confirm the report in circulation In the
United Statea that the crulssr Maria
Teresa , which was abandoned in a sinking
condition off Wattling Island on Novem
ber 1 , lias been sighted aground off Cat
Island of the Bahama group. The rumor
that tbo cruiser has been sighted is dis
credited.

Chapman Wrecking company baa received in
formation that the 'Maria Teresa Is ashore
at Oat.lHland : Captain Chlttenden will leave

Hlgby handed mo a lovely cup of coffee with
the remark , "Did you over realize that It
Is not at all consistent for temperance people
ple to continually advise others to avoid
poisonous stimulants , and yet day by day
drink such articles themselves. Thla U
particularly true of coffee , which Is one of
the most powerful narcotics In existence ,
although Its effects are not shown as active

I was rather , surprised at her remark , but
after thinking It It over a moment , I real
ized that it was apropos. I had noticed
many a case of nervous prostration that
waa directly traceable to coffee , for the
Individuals at once legan to improve when
they loft off coffee , and I had found It so
In my own experience.
I bad made several attempts to break
away from the habit and bad failed , much
to my disgust , and. oftentimes , when addressing -
dressing aa audience on the evils of liquor
drinking , I bad In my own heart felt that
I was very much like an old toper , the
only difference being that I wanted coffot
and ho wanted liquor.
Mrs. Hlgby went on to say , "We havt

rality. Essex county , which was conceded
b ytbo fighting ground of both parties , lias
