been bowling about Republican profigacy and
rank extravagance, will be interested in learning
that Senator Voorhees,, in the Senate, to-day,
offered amendments to the consular end dplo-
matte appropriation bill which contemplate an

gentine Republic clerk at 81. 500 year, and to
raise the rank of the minister to envoy extra

MINOR MATTERS.

Combinations by the Senate-Cases I'm Which
the Injunction of Secrecy Was Removed.
WASHINGTON, May 21.-The Senate has con-
firmed the following nominations:
John Carroll. marshal of the Western district
of Arkansas; R. D. Reagan, marshal of the East
ern district of Texas; Mrs. Virginia G. Thomp-
son, postmaster at Louisville. KY.
The Senate removed the injunction Of secrecy
from several reports in cases disposed of some
time ago. In the case of E. d. v. Fem, to be
postmaster at Nevada, Ia, vice T. j. Ross, sus-
pended. the postoffice committee says there
seems to have been no cause for the suspension
of Mr. Ross. other than that he was consistent
and active member of the Republican party, and
that his suspension was desired on that account
in order that member of the Democratic party
might be appointed in his stead. The committee
finds nothing against Mr.. Ross, and finds MIR.
Fem TO be a worthy man.
In the case of Harry G. Evans to be postrnas-
ter at Bloomfield. Ia, vice A. H. Fortune, sus-
pended, the committe says the suspension seems
to have been made for political cause. and it
finds nothing affecting the personal or official
conduct of the outgoing officer. Mr.. Evans Is
found worthy and is reported favorably.
Reports similar in purpose to the above,
though different in terms, were made in the
cases of w. T. Sharp, postmaster at Brooklyn,
Ia, vice George Phillips, suspended; S. B. Chase,
postmaster at Osage Ia, vice Z. G. Atherton,

stroyed, but no lives lost Earthquake shocks
are constantly occurring.

1t was in 476 3. G. that the first explosion Of
Mt. Etna, of which there is any record occurred.
But what was then a comparatively small heap
has been increased by the elected material Of
the intervening ages to the immense Etna of
to-day. The mountain now rises to a height
of 1854 feet and has o circular base nearly
ninety miles in circumference 1t ordina-
rily pours forth the matter from
one central crater, and this elected

down the sides of the accumulated heap destroys
or rather prevents the accumu ation of noursh-
ment for vegetable life for long distance from
the summit OF the mountain But when there
is no eruption a deep silence prevails on the
mountains top and thousand smokestacks con-
tribute to great volume of white vapor that
passes up between the jet black and steel-grav
walls of the immense crater.
After the first recorded eruption of Etna il
poured out comparatively little matter until 469.
when the most remarkable outburst in it's his
tory took place. Catania, iourlshing CONNER
cal town founded at its base, was buried be-
meath the molten lava, and $4,000 people were
destroyed.
Nearly 400 years later there was another ter
rife explosion, and Etna sent out a stream of
lava and ashes that buried two villages and a
great number Of their inhabitants That erup-
tion was followed by about 100 years. calm,
which was followed, in turn, by numerous small
period of ten years These resulted in the
destruction of number of small villages that
had sprung up on the mountains base and al
most all their inhabitants were buried in the
houses. About the time these periodical
eruptons ceased there food of water sud-
denly dashed down the sides of the mountain,
put this has been commonly accounted for as
being the result of the sudden melting of
thick carpet of snow which spread over the
entire elevation. The next and last great
eruption, was little more than thifty-four years
ago. when mammoth clouds of fire dust were
emitted and hung for time over all of the sur
rounding country. This was followed by i'm
mense streams OF lava. the largest two issuing
from new mouths on the flank of the mountain,
one taking the direction of Zaffarana and the
other that of Giarra. One of these streams was
two miles broad and nearly 200 feet deep, and
it precipitated itself, fiery torrent down the
sides of the mountain, and on the level it ad-
vaneed at the rate of 600 feet an hour. Trifiing
eruptions have taken place since that time, but
none have occurred which occasioned any con-
siderable loss of property or life. Then. too,
during the intervening years the line Of vegeta-
tion has gradually crept higher and higher upon
the side of the elevation, at places well nigh
reaching its summit.

Justin Mccarthy Discusses the Bill, and
Hopes it Will Not Be Mutilated.
LONDON, May 2l.-Mr. Gladstone, in the
House of Commons, this afternoon, stated that
he would, on Monday next ask the House for a
vote of supply on account, and then to take up
the arms act for daily debate until the bill was
passed, in order that it might be brought into
operation before the old act expired.
Mr.. Justin Mccarthy resumed the debate on
the home-rule bill. He said that the prospects
of home rule had frightened recently, thanks to
Lord Salisbury's revival of the cry of mo
popery.' and Ireland could not afford to wait for
the elaboration of scheme of imperial
federation. The Irish Parliament would
join the federation when matured.
He would rather the Orangemen
not mean to fight; they ought rather to assist in
regeneratng their fatherland. He earnestly
hoped that Mr.. Gladstone would not mutilate the
bill or postpone it for another year Happen
what might, Mr. Gladstone had already secured
self-government for Ireland prolonged

Mr.. Childers. Home Secretary, said that while
there was no danger in granting to Ireland the
powers which the bill confers, there was danger
in refusing such powers He believed that, as
in the cases of Australia and Canada, the meas
ure would be accepted by Ireland cordially, and
thar the result would be a permanent attach
ment to England on the part of the Irish people,

THE TRIAL OF BROOKS.


ST. Louis, May 2l-Tne interest in the Max
well case continues undiminished, and at the
opening of the proceedings this morning the
crowd of curious spectators exceeded that in at
tendance on any previous day. This was due,
perhaps. to the fact that witness was to be ex-
amined who had positively identified the body
found in the zine trunk at the Southern Hotel, as
that of G. Arthur Preler. The witness proved
to be j. A Jrazer. of Toronto, Canada for many
years photographer, but now portrait painter
and sculptor. Mr.. Jrazer was placed on the
stand, and testified that he had met Preller in
Toronto year ago last February; he described
Preller as he knew him then, and exhibited a
portrait of him which had been painted By the
witness; it had been pronounced an excellent
likeness. He was shown by Mr. Mcdonald, of
the prosecution, during the latters visit to To-
ronto, post-mortem photograph of Preller S
body. and had made the portrait from it. The
witness described his visit to st. Louis after the
murder; he had visited the cemetery in company
with one of the counsel for the defense, had
seen the casket in which Prellers body had been
placed exhumed. and recognized the body with
out a doubt as that OF G. Arthur Preller. He
recognized the corpse by the fact that the face
had peculiar scar over the left eyebrow; he
considered the body to be in a remarkably per-
feet state of preservation. The witness identi-
fed the different photographs of Preller The
cross-examination failed to confuse the witness,
and as he stepped down from the stand it was
evident that jurors and spectators alike enter
tanned no doubt as to the identity of the body
found in the trunk.
Detective Tracy, who traced Maxwell to San
Francisco, and brought him back to this city
from Auckland New Zealand. produced in court
several articles of clothing marked &c. A. p, a
shirt covered with blood, and badly torn and cut
supposed to be that which Maxwell removed from
Preler's body immediately after the murder
during the passage from Auckland Maxwell told
him that he had purchased these things from a
man in San Francisco, named Robinson.
The witness described incidents of the return
passage, and repeated conversations which he
had with the prisoner. During one of the latter
he asked Maxwell how much money he had just
previous to his departure from St Louis on his
way to San Francisco, and he replied, "about
81, ,0O0," but had spent great deal OK it on the
trip and in San Francisco. When asked what
had become of the remainder he referred him
to his lawyers In regard to Maxwell's ac-
quaintance with Preler, he told the witness that
he had met him (Preller) in Liverpool and had
seen him last in Boston. The remainder of the
witnesses testimony developed nothing new.
