A dispatch was received at of the religious freedom of .the Caroline Vthe navy department Saturday atatii All On Board Go Down With Her In Raging Billiard. Net a (tool Saved to Tell the Story. A special to The Boston Herald from North Truro says the steamer Port land, of the Boeton and Portland Rail road company, plying, between Boston and Portland, w«; totally wreoked at 10 o’clock Sunday morning off High land light, and the entire crew and passengers perished within a short distance of land. A large quantity of wreokngn, in cluding trunks and other meterial, were washed ashore, and at dark Mon day night thirty-fonr bodies bad been recovered from the surf by the life saving orew at' High Head station. One body was that of a woman. The news of the disaster was ob tained through tile agency of a special train, as communication to Boston by wire from paints on Cape Cod was im possible on account of the havoc wrought by the storm. The officers and crew of the Port land consisted of forty-eight persons. The passenger list, no for as can he ascertained, contained the names of fifty-one men, women and children. Ninety-nine persons were lost in the disaster. The passengers were mostly residents of the states of Maine and Massachusetts, and many of them lived in Boston and Portland. . The Portland was built in Bath in 1880, and was n sidewheel stenmer of 1,317 tons net burden. Her length is 230 feet; bonm 42 feet and depth 15. She was valued at 5250,000 and is fully insured. Writfikiigi* HlrowB CohiI. From reports, independent of the Portland, that have been received by wire, mail and tnessongor to the Asso ciated Press from New England points up to 1 o’clock Tuesday afternoon, it was difficult to estimate the fetal loss of' life and damage to shipping along the coast as the result of the recent storm. The list of disasters seems to grow every hour and from dispatches thus far received it opposes that at least 30 schooners have i eon wrecked at dif ferent points from East Port, Mass., to New Haven, Conn.; 86 schooners have been driven ashore, and 14 lmrges loaded or empty, are aground. This list does not include ihe 30 ves sels either wholly or partially wrecked in'BoRton harbor, nor half a dozen or more craft which are reported missing, including the Boston, nor the big Wilson line freighter Ohio, which is ashore on Spectacle Island in Boston harbor; the Btoamer John J. Hill, which is ashore at Atlantic; the Mer chants' nnd Miners' Transportation steamer Fairfax, ashore on Sow nnd Pigs’ ledge, off Cuttyhunk; the small steamer George A. Chaffee, foundered at Bockport, Mass. Whon these ves sels are added the aggregate list ex ceeds one hundred and seventy ves sels. The loss of life is hard to determine. It is known that about 40 persons per ished in and about Boston harbor alone. Beports from other places, in some caHes, state that the crew of this or that vessel esenped, many, however, state that the fate of the crew is un known. Borne survivors have turned up, and life-saving stations and inoom- ing'vessels have brought a few sailors from wrecks. Perhaps a score would cover those of whom nothing is known, not including the 99 who were on the steamer Portland. CERVERA WAS WISE. Admiral Itaprecnteil War Owing to tha Htrengtlt of Our Navy. The navy department Monday pub lished through the office of naval in telligence the “views” of Admiral Cervera regarding the Spanish navy in the late war, and is a reprint of a number of letters published it) Ea Epoca, of Madrid, on the 5th of No vember. The letters are dated from before the war up to May 5th, and were written by Cervera in protest ngainst Spain rushing into war on the face of certaid defeat, dne to the naval strength of the United States and the unprepared- ness of the Spanish navy. islands, a naval station for the United States in the same group,oable lauding righta at other points within Spain’s jurisdiction, the release of the ineur- rcotloniet prisoners and the revival ot the treaties broken by the war. Thne the commeroisl and general treaty of 1795 will be revised to be re cast later; the treaty of 1834, for the settlement of certains claims, will be revived; the treaty of 1877, providing tor extradition, will be revived; the trademerk of treaty ot 1882 will be revived and sumrle- mental extradition treaty of 1881 will be revived, in addition to several modus vivendi agreements. It is thought the secretaries Will submit tho treaty articles at the next joint ses sion, when qll the other points for negotiation will be discussed. Thus the commissions will have before them the treaty for amendment, approval or rejeotion. On all of the points outside of the protoool there will be friendly negotia tions only, Spain haying the right to name the prices ehe wants for her ter ritory and to rejeot or accept tho Americans’ offer. The Spaniards, no less than the Americans, now are anx ious to conclude the butiuess which brought them to Paris. There will he little daisy mu these articles. Mr. Moore will also, submit to the United Slates commissioners the subjects to be presented to the Spaniards for negotiations. These, for convenience and great dispatch, are beiug drafted in|o the form of articles. . , The release of the iusmgaut prison ers held by Spain wilt go into the protocol agreements, it having been already agroed that Spain is to rolense them upon the United States under taking to secure tlio release of Spanish prisoners in the hands of Aguiualdo. This question, is so intimately related to tho peaoo treaty that it lias boon removed from the subjects that are matters of negotiation, a;id has been embodied in the articles containing the protoool article's. COTTON TICKETS EXEMl’T. n*. that the captain of the Boeton had tended his marine cnard at Tien-Tiia. The dispatch was taken immediately to the white house by Acting Secretary Allen. Secretary flay was called into consultation, with the remit of reoe- surlng the officials and allaying their first feeling of appreheneion. It seems thet the merinea were land ed, not because of eny information of rioting or etteoke upon American mis sionaries, hut solely to not as guard* of the United State* legation at Peking. The Boston was dispatched to the mouth of the Pie He river several 1 weeks ego at the inetenoe of the United States miuister to provide guard for the legation. The minister represented that nearly ail of the lega tions of European powers were pro vided with a marine guard aud he did not consider we thonld be an excep tion in this case. After lying at Tanka for a while, the Boston worked her way np tha rivsr to Tien-Tsin, about the heed of naviga tion for vessels of her alas* and dis tant about fifty or sixty miles from Peking. It is believed at the navy de partment that the marines will be sent forward from that point in launohes or small river boats. Uaptsin Frank' Wildes, the com-' mandor of the Boston, who reported the landing to the navy department by cable, did not state how mauy men were in the guard, bnt the force is not believed to exceed two dozen men. The , presence of these foreign guards is not welcome to the Chinee* government. When the landings were first proposed its representatives Hough*, to dissuade ihc United Htatos government fro ii indicting this humil iation upon it. Tha effect was to cause a suspension of the order, but ns has been already stated, moat of the European logatiohs have provided theinselren with guards, and the Chinese having become reconciled to their proBonce, no longer object in our case. Advices that reaoh the steto depart ment do not indicate an immediate out break in China.

He alaohold them to be exempt beoauso of the levying of a tax on the cotton itself, which is exempt as a farm product. The senator regards the ruling as of very general importance through out the cotton-growing section. PRESIDENT NOTIFIED Of th« Succiiiifnl Terttilnutlon of Peace Negotiations at Paris. A Washington special says: The government has been officially advised of the successful termination of the peacn negotiations with .Spain. A cablegram to this effect which had been received from Chairman Day, was read at Tuesday’s cabinet meeting by the secretary of state. By the terms of the treaty, which will be signed during the present week, Spain surrenders to the United States her sovereignty in tlio Philippine archipelago and Guam inland, one of the Tisdrone group. General Butlor gave to the president much valuable information as to the general situation in' Cuba, the ability of tho Cubans for self-government, the Hanitary conditions of Havens and generally the resnlts of hia observa tion during his stay there. General Butler gave it as his opin ion that all the Spanish troops will have departed ten days before the date fixnd in the agreement. He said the Spaniards have met the American commissioners with reasonable fair ness and that there bosbeeu little fric tion. Some of the claims they have made for compensation for Spanish property have been ridiculous and they will, of course, he abandoned in the end.
