Mr. Clarence A. Cole, son of Captain J. J. Cole of this city, met his death on the 
6th instant at Barranquilla, South America, under painful circumstances. Some days

injuries that, after lingering in pain, he died on the 6th as stated. Mr. Cole had 
gone down chiefly for the benefit of his health with the wrecking expedition sent 
by the Baker Salvage Company to save the stranded British steamship Chilian and 
cargo, and his sad death will be greatly lamented by his many friends. His father, 
who is at the Delaware Breakwater, has been informed by wire of the occurrence.
