that a man named Carney, supposed to be Ambrose Carney, tbe well-known athlete, late of \"B\u201d Battery, who was a passenger, had fallen overboard and waa drowned.It may be as well to state bare that tbe report with reference to Carney, lacks at* confirmation so far.An exa (hi nation of the telegrams received by us on the subject, s -ems to indicate that none of tbe passengers saw anyone fall
