Reports which were first denied, but are now established, state that the steamship Nicaragua has been wrecked during a storm off Corpus Christi, a Texas town in the Gulf of Mexico. Six were drowned, but seven who were adrift were rescued by a lifeboat in a state of exhaustion, having been two days without food.
