THKIR FATE IS YET UKKKOWS, Altlionch no Fears are Entertained of Any thing Serions. IWO STEAMEKS GONE 10 THE RESCUE tFFECTJli. TELXQBAM TO TIIB DISPATCIX.1 Xets- Yobk, April 2. The steamship Acuan, of the Honduras and Central Amer ican line, on which "Warner Miller and his natty leit Xew York to examine the work of the Nicaragua Canal, was stranded on March 26 on Eoncador reef in the Caribbean Sea, 250 miles northeast of Greytown, while on her way to Greytown from Kingston, Jamaica. The news came by cable to the Xicirajrua Canal Company from Chief En gineer A. C Slenocal at Greytown. The Ajjuan sailed from here on March 14, with Warner Miller, the President of the Canal Construction Company, on board. He was accompanied byG. Hilton Scribner, Charles AVutrous, C. I. Merriam, C. K Mc Arthnr, William J. Marvin, Major C. E. lutton, Lieutenant Guy Howard, U. S. A.; Civil Engineer S. 1 Donaldson, H. F. Gooch. D. McN. Stauffer, Major. Joseph Kirfeland, of Chicago: Kember Boeock, John It. Spears, Elbert Kappelye and W. K. Simmons. James Itankiue, the New York representative of the steamship com pany, and his daughter. Miss Itankine, Miss Scribner and Miss Clark were also of the party. No Fear of Loss. Captain George "W. Davis, the general manager of the canal company, said to-day that he was completely in the dark as to the real condition of affairs, but he felt confi dent from the wording of the cablegram that the Aguan had not ueen lost, ineuarazo, wbicli bad gone to her rescue, is a small steamer of the Morgan line, while the Fetrel is undoubtedly the United .States gunboat of that name, which was due in Greytown about March 2b. Captain Davis said that there was a lintish var vessel of the same name on that station, and it might be she that had gone to th rescue. Captain Davis, figured out that the Agnan had arrived at Kingston on Saturday? March 2ii. and that she must have remained there un t 1 Tuesday afternoon, the 24th. El Iioncador, which is Spanish for "The Snorer," lies di rt oil) in the path of steamers sailing from Kingston to Greytown. Its name probably i jines from the noise of tlie surf. Captain Adair, the present post captain of tho Hon duras and Central American Steamship Com pany, who. until last car, commanded the Aguan. gave this as the most probable expla nation of the mishap to the vessel. Not a Pleasant Spot. The Roncador reef is 1G to 17 miles long and runs northeast and southwest. All but a small portion at the northeast end is several feet Tisuer water, and the color of tho water and the surf is all that tells of tho existence of the rent The portion above water is covered with ;. tew cocoannt palms and low shrnbs and is a dnut ten actcs in extent. It is cot inhabited oud is visited only by turtle hunters once or TRice.ijear. There is a well of freshwater t on it, due bv these hunters. 1 he reef under water is covered with sandy shoals, and it is probably upon one of these t. at the Agnan stranded. A short distance I'om the reef tbcro is deep water. If the Aguan left Kingston on Tuesday afternoon, the ith, she would pas tho reef just before day-1-ieaL of the following Thursday. In the slight lure and darkness which is over the water at tnat time the Aguan must have run on the reef. "1 tbmk myself that the steamship is safe," said Captain Adair, "but if she Is breaking up it ould have been very easy for the passengers and crew to reach the land. There are no hurricanes or cyclones in that region at this t me of the year, and strong trade winds are all that would disturb them. Ample Lifeboat Accommodations. There were two staunch lifeboats aboard. whirl) could liavo taken off every one. Captain M K. llaillie. the present commander, is a careful man. lie sailed as chief officer under me and understands the neighborhood well. He had a crew of SS men. A lifeboat was prob abiv despatched from tho steamship to the Island of Old Providence, which is about SO miles to the southwest of the reef. From there acocoauut schooner mutt have carried the liens of the disaster to tho Corn Inlands, where tho Carazo left for tho scene at once. At tue latest she must have arrived at the rei f two dajs after the Aguan stranded. If tho passenncrs had to abandon the steamhip ur.d lake to the bit of reef above water they ti ut have pnt up with some discomforts, for t!ere is no shelter but a small hut used by the t" tic hunters. Mr. Menocal's despatch was not dated, but was probably sent on .March CI. Uord should be receivea" within the next 21 hours that the passengers were all at Grey tn, as theiuund trip could easily bo covered bj the Carazo In three days." THE KIKCAID CASE.

New Castle is in a state of excitement over the disappearance of J. T. Myland, a prominent business man. About two years ago Myland came to this city from Cleveland to work as a boss taker for a widow named Mrs. M. A. Wright, who by hard work had saved about 7,0UQ. He was a fine looking man atout 31 years of age. He had a fine gold watcb, on which was engraved the fact that it had been presented to J. L. Myland, Superintendent of a Sunday school in Canada. He bad also letters from his brother, a minis ter of the Gospel, at Berlin Heights, near Cleveland. After workine for Mrs. Wright for some time, the two fell in lore, and Myland married his employer. He at once took charge of the business. Mrs. Myland put her money in her husband's name, and all went well until last Tuesday afternoon, when Mr. Myland said that be was going to Cleveland to look for a baker. His wife did not think anything was wrong until the evening ot his departure, wben she bad occasion to go to the private drawer where the private papers were kept. Here she found the valuable papers were gone. An in quiry at the National Bank revealed the fact that Mr. Myland had drawn H.62S. She be lieves that her husband has deserted her and stolen her money, as it was in his name. It will be a hard matter to force Myland to return, even if he is captured. He left about 200 in the bank.

There have been two dastardly attempts to wreck passen ger trains between this point and Grafton within the past 43 hours. While Hon. Samuel Gramm, a member of the Legislature, was walking ud the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad near Grafton, he noticed some pieces of iron wedged in a frog near Fetterman station. The Wheeling accommodation, loaded with passen gers, was -nearly due, and there was just time to remove the obstructions before the train whirled by. Last night a similar obstruction was discov ered a few mmntes before the Chicago vesti bule train was due. They were in the same place, ana apparently placed there by the same persons. To-day and to-night a gang of watch men have been located all along the track in that vicinity.
