Reports of fatali ties consequent upon the eruption of l Mount Vesuvius are coming in. Ac cording to information received, probably as many as 500 lives were lost. It is said that more than 200 perished in the district of San Guiseppe, while from the ruins of a church, which collapsed owing to the weight of ashes on the roof, 49 corpses were extricated, and it is as serted that at Sorrento 37 persons were killed by falling houses. A railway train from San Guiseppe for Naples was derailed owing to showers of stones from the crater, ers of stones from the crater. Cavalry proceeding to the succor cf the inhabitants of the devastated sec tion have been unable to make pro gress, the rain falling on the ashes a foot deep, having made it impossible for the horses to travel. The si reams of lava are almost sta tionaiy. Troops are erecting barriers in the direction of Pompeii to prevent further danger in that quarter. Almost equally with the devasta tion wrought by the lava is the dam age done by cinders and ashes, which in incredible quantities have been car ried great distances. This has caused the practical destruction of San Gui seppe, a place of t',000 inhabitants. All Lt'.t 2"0 of the people had fled from San Gui-eppe. and these 200 assembled in a church to attend mass. While the prcst was performing his sacred of fice the roof frll in, many were killed and about 00 persons were badly in jured. Th" only thing left standing in the church was a statue of St. Anae, the preservation of which the poor, homeless people accepted as a miracle and promise of deliverance from their peril. At Ottajano five churches and 10 houses fell under the weight of ashes and cinders, whic h lie four feet deep on the ground. In the fall of the buildings about 12 persons were killed and many were injured. The village is completely deserted by its people. After the evacuation of the place the barracks and prisons fell in. Reports fiom coast and inland towns depict terrible devastation. San Gior gio, Cremona, Portici, Resina and Tor re del Greco have been almost com pletely abandoned. No trace remains of Boscotrecase, a commune on the southern declivity of the mountain, where up to 48 hours ago lti.oeo persons lived, and Torre Annun ziata. on the shores of the gulf of Na ples, one mile to the southward, is al most surrounded by the invading lava and has been evacuated by its 30,000 inhabitants. The people were brought to Naples by trains, street cars, mili tary (arts and steamships. Similar means of transportation are being em ployed to bring away the people from Torre del Greco. The police and car-, bineers are guarding the abandoned houses, and several members of the government are also there. The statement is made here that in tho vlelnlty of Ottajano cinders and ashes from the volcano lie to a depth of loll feet. Somma Vesuviana is another vil lage which has suffered most severely. The most of the buildings in the vil lages are of flimsy construction and have Hat roofs, and so are but poorly calculated to bear the weight of ashes and cinders that have fallen upon them. Inevitably it will be found that a considerable number of persons have perished by the falling of their homoh, Although the eruption of the volcano is less violent than it was 24 hours ago. the lava is still falling in great tpiantlties. Refugees from the threatened or de stroyed villages are iouring into Na ples by the thousands, arriving in ev ery description of conveyance and on foot. The roads are crowded with pro cessions of men and women carrying crosses and crying piteosuly. King Victor Emmanuel ami Queen Helena have further endeared them selves to the people by their activity in behalf of sufferers by the eruption, and the government is exerting itself for the relief of the destitute. This work, however, is obstructed by the .ongestion of all means of transporta tion, which are monopolized in the carrying of people out of the zone of 'danger. The kin? and queen and their suites arrived at Naples from Rome. When the royal train reached the station the eruption of the vob ano was almost at its worst, but he insisted upon leaving in;n dial ely for Torre Annunziata, the hir.'.'. declaring: "If Torre Anrmnziata is in danp. r ii is my d'Uy to be there." 'I ravel ine; jn automobiles, and ac companied by the luke and Duche'ss of Aosta niul the Princess of Schles-wig-llolstcir.. they set out for the af flicted districts. Touching scenes greeted them along the way. Pv the kins's order there I was no attempt to keep the people j sway from him. The sovereigns visit I ed Santa Anastasia. Cercola and Som ' ma Vesuvius, where they were greeted with great enthusiasm. At a certain point the royal party were struck by a small cyclone of ashes and cinders.

STILL AFTER DOWIE "First Apostle" of Zion Again Vigor ously Denounced. Zion City, 111.., April 9. With the erproval of thousands of Doweites in a meeting, General Overseer Glenn Voliva denounced John Alexander Dowies as a spendthrift, liar and triat- i or, and was in turn promised support j as leader of the Christian Catholic ; Church in Zion, to fill the place of j lhe founder of the church, now deposed ; und on his way from Mexico to fight for his rights. When, after denouncing Dowie, Overseer Voliva suddenly demanded a decision of the audience which crowd ed Shiloh tabernacle as to who should be their future leader, the 6000 per sons in the auditorium rose as one person and signified their willingness to follow Voliva to the end. On the platform with Voliva were Mrs. John Alexander Dowie, Judge Barnes, head of the law department of Zion City, and Overseers Speicher, Excell, Cantel and Granger. A message was received from Dowie, stating that he would reach Zion City Tuesday morning, and or dering Shiloh house, his residence in Zion City, to bo prepared for his home coming. Voliva, after reading this message, vowed that Dowie would not be allowed to enter the door of what formerly was his Zion City home. BLAMES IT ALL ON WIFE Dcwie Declares He Will Never Live With Her Again. Little Rock, Ark., April 10. Dr. John Alexander Dowie will never again live with bis wife. This disclo sure he made to a representative of the Associated Press, for whom he sent. His final determination to separate from Mrs. Dowie was made after he had received and read the Chicago pa pers of last Friday, containing a story to the effect that he had intended to establish a harem in his Mexican col ony. He ascribes this story to Mrs. Dowie and his son, Gladstone. This story caused Dowie great mental an guish. "How could they be so cruel? How could they cause to be published such a thing?" he said over and over again. When he had regained his compo sure he told of his irrevocable decision never to live with Mrs. Dowie again. "She is the cause of most of my trouble," he reiterated. "She has spurred on Voliva and the others un til this dreadi'ul trouble came and my persecution was complete. For years I tried to shield her, but her strange conduct has now parsed beyond the point of human endurance. Money and jealousy were at the bottom of it all. She was incensed because I wanted to leave so much to Zion. May God for give her. "I offered her 2V2 per cent, of the vast estate. It should have satisfied her, for it would have provided amply for her wants. As for her jealousy, who can account for that. I only know before my God that my life has been pure and blameless. These sto ries about polygamy are more than cruel they are shocking." BRUTAL MURDER AT SCRANTON Polish Teamster, Said to Be Wealthy, Killed and Robbed. Scranton, Pa., April 7. George We nefskl, a Polish teamster, who lived alone on Crown avenue, on the out skirts of South Scranton, was brutally murdered. His partially denuded body was found on a refuse heap near his barn by a neighbor. Robbery was likely the motive. He was reputed to be wealthy, and that he carried his wealth in a money belt, which he wore next to his body. The fact that hia shirts were pulled up and his trousers down indicated that the murderer or murderers looked for the money belt, and if it was there, got it. Another indication that they got the belt is the fact that a few dollars in the pockets of the dead man's clothes was not taken. Wenefski's skull was battered in, but no weapon could be found at the scene of the crime. As yet the police have no clue to the perpetrators of the deed, but they are satisfied that robbery was the motive and that parties acquainted with Wenefski and his habits are guilty of the awful crime. THREE DAM BUILDERS DROWN Beat Strikes Boom and Capsizes in Susquehanna. Lanactser, pa., April 9. Martin Lee, Frederick T.egette and John Con nelly, all of Portland. Me., were drown ed in the Susquehanna river at Mo Call's Feiry. where the McCall's Fer ry Power Company is constructing a great dam across the stream. Seven men were crossing the river in a boat when it ran on a boom. In attempt to rock it off it dipped, and soon began to sink. Four men, none of whm could swim, saved themselves by clinging to the boom. One went down with the boat. Two started tc swim down stream, but one of them attempted to cling to the other, and then ensued a terrible scene to those who watched from the bank, unable to help. The stronger of the two men heat the other off with furious blows, and struck him not less that two-score of times. At last a terrific storke sent the unfortunate to the bottom, but the stronger man was then too much ex hausted to swim, and he sank only a moment after his companion.

OPERATORS AGREE TO ARBITRATE To Maka Counter Proposition ta Anthracite Miners. BETTLE CNLY NEW GRIEVANCES New York. April 10 At the joint conference of the sub-committees of the anthracite coal miners and their employes to be held here today (Tues day), the operators will decline to ac cept the arbitration plan as presented last week by the mine workers, and will in its stead present a counter proposition, which, if agreed to by President Mitchell and his men, will bind, each side for more than two years. The operators have been work ing on the new plan ever since the adjournment of the joint conference of last Thursday, and the inability of the presidents of the hard-coal carry ing railroads to complete minor de tails caused a postponement of 24 hours of the conference. The exact nature of thn counter proposition was not made known by the operators, and they do not intend to permit it to be come public property nntil it shall have been presented to the miners. It is said, however, that the offer to be made involves an arbitration plan very different from the one presented by the miners, one that will call for the settlement of only new grievances that may be, after an impartial inves tigation has been made, found to ex ist. The operators still maintain the position that the miners in their de mands have not called attention to anything that has not already been passed upon by the anthracite coal strike commission. There is a strong Impression among the miners' com mittee that the operators will propose that President Roosevelt be requested to summon the strike commission to review the entire controversy. They decline, however, to indicate how they would receive one supsestlon. The commission is familiar to a consider able extent with conditions in the an thracite regions, and, therefore, would not have to go over the entire ground, as would be the case if an entire new set of men were selected. The operators' representatives were in close conference most of the day, and promise that unless something unforeseen should occur, they will be ready with their answer to the miners' arbitration plan. The reason given for the postponement was that the large coal companies desired to obtain th? sentiment of all the Independent op erators before they draw up their for mal answer, and as some of the inde pendents were engaged in exchanging views in the upper Pennsylvania coal fields, it was deemed best to wait until they had taken action. The operators, through a representative, sal 1 the gen eral policy had been decided upon, and that the minor details will be disposed of at a full meeting of the sub-committee prior to the conference with the miners. President Mitchell announced that the last of the bituminous coal oper ators ii the Pittsburg district who had held out. acajnst the 1903 wage agree ment signed the scale. This action, he said, clears up the western Pennsylva nia territory, ar,d means that 40,000 men in thnt territory who produce from ?,5i0u.(iO0 to 40,000,000 tons of soft coal n far will receive an in crease c;i' 5.55 per cent, in wages. MINERS ARE HOPEFUL Delicve Operators Will Open Way For Settlerrer.t of Trouble. Philadelphia. April l'l Mine work ers throughout the anthracite region express the belief that the action of tho operalriis requesting a iostpone nier t cf t: New York conference is an incli'iiticin that, while President Mitchell's arbitration may not be ac cepted as presented, the operators themselves will have a proposition that wii! open the way for an amica ble settlement of the existing differ ences. While the operators are re inrt I as opposed to reconsidering any of the grievances passed upon by the ani hracp -j strike -ommission, it Is ui:dei stood that they are likely to admit th.- possibility of here being new isvjes which might be arbitrated. There scf-ms to be little hope In the coal fields, ho-ve.er. that the negotia tions will res-, it in En immediate ter minatio nef the ruspnsion of mining Should th- operators present a coun ter propfisitioii at the meeting it 1 regarded as certain that President Mitchell will ask for another adjourn ment in ordr to f-r:abl him to dis cuss its terms with the miners' com mittee, an 1 to frame an answer to the operators.
