CEPHALONIA IS SAFE.
| THEOVERDUE GUNARDPASSENCEK STEAMER SIGHTED. Bitter Weather In Great Britain Many Lives Are Lost by the Foundering of Vessels —Thames Is Frozen Over — Cable News. Queenstown, Feb. 7.—The Cunard line steamship Cephalonia, Capt. Seecombe, from Boston Jan. ,26 for Liverpool, passed Brow Head at 11:55 o’clock this morning, about fifty-six hours behind schedule time. New York, Feb. 7.—The French line steamship La Gascogne, from Havre, is four days overdue. It is now the general belief among steamship people that some part of her machinery has broken down, and that, having made temporary repairs, she is proceeding slowly toward port. Having only two masts, she could not spread any great quantity of canvas; consequently her speed would not be greatly increased if sail had been hoisted to assist her progress. Should her machinery be so (Bsabled as to be completely useless for the time being, she would be obliged to use her sails, and in the teeth of the northwest winds that have prevailed for some days past she could make little If any headway. The White Star line steamer Teutonic, from Liverpool and Queenstown, was due to arrive at 1:36 yesterday morning to equal her record, but has not been reported. The thought that she has fallen in with La Gascogne and taken her in tow is somewhat strengthened by her non-arrival.
