Stopper Of a Bottle.
Rev. Dr.. George VI. B1thWell, Formerly Of
Oakland, Meets With Nearly
Fatal Experience.
Special to THE MORNING CALF

NEw YORK. April 24.-on Saturday Rev.
DR.. George W. Boutwell,, who came from
Oakland, Cal, recently aud became pastor
of the Congregational Church of the Cove
liant in Brooklyn, took cork from bottle
to give some medicin to one Of his children.
He held it in his teeth, and in laughing at
the pranks of another child the cork slipped
into his throat and was drawn into the wind
pipe and on into one of the bronchial tubes.
1t nearly suffocated him, and violent fit of
coughing failed to release it. His physician
and two other doctors failed to reach the
cork. They managed. however, to relieve
his suffering so that Boutwell, preached
twice on Sunday. but it caused him renewed
difficulty on Monday, and the following day
another consultation of physicians was held
and it was decided that the cork was in the
left bronchus. Mechanical means were re-
sorted to to release it, and Boutwell, was
placed over a support and pounded on the
back and he coughed until he was nearly
black in the face, but could not remove the
obstacle.
Thursday Boutwell, was taken to the
Brooklyn Hospital and the operation of
tracheotOmy performed. The wind-pipe
was opened and probed with all the availa-
bic instruments known to the surgeons, but
the cork could not be reached. The opera
tion was prolonged for two hours, but the
physicians present, including many of the
hospital staff, were compelled to admit that
the case was beyond their skill and that the
cork could not be reached without laying
open the lungs, which would prove fatal
Boutwell, came out from the ether iZation
all right and expressed himself as resigned
to Gods will. He has since remained at the
hospital and suffers from violent paroxysms
of coughing at intervals. DIR. Biggam. the
family physician of Boutwell,, said this even
ing that the patient is doing well and he did
not apprehend a fatal result, even if the
cork. was not removed. Another physician
said the cork may encyst itself and prove
harmless save in depriving the patient of

They were seen in that place

PRECIOUS RELICS DESTROYED.
1rreparable Damage Wrought in the Vatican
by the EXPLOSION

ROME, April 24.-1he explosion yesterday
created great alarm at the Vatican. All
the windows of the Pope's library were
broken and a number of precious relies were
destroyed. The stained-glass windows of
st. Peters and st. PauPs were damaged
and many relics destroyed. St Paups
Church is closed while the damage is being
repaired. The destruction wrought will be
irreparable, as the valuable works of art
which were destroyed cannot be replaced.
Some time will elapse before the full
amount of damage can be known.
1t now transpres that the Pope was en-
gagged in prayer when the explosion shook
the Vatican building. So severe was the
shock that his Holiness would have fallen
had not one of the servants caught him.
An investigation shows that the explosion
was caused by the accidental ignition of
some shell capsules. A number of the in
jured have died.
King Humbert to-day called at the hos
pitas and visited the wounded people. The
Kings sympathetic action in conveying
some of the wounded in his own carriage to
the hospitals yesterday and in visiting tue
wounded to-day is highly appreciated by the
popuace of this city.
Among these hurt by the accident was
Billot, the French ambassador, who was
slightly injured by falling glass.

SAN DOMINGO.
Advantages That Would Accrue From Reci-
procity With It.

pAOOltJ Will LIE
WASHINGTON, April 24-Senor Gayan.
who is now here, is empowered by San
Domingo to negotiate reciprocity agree
ment with this country. He said to your
correspondent to-day: san Domingo oc-
cupieS about two-thirds Of large island
southeast of Cuba. Its population is over
100000 We raise about $1,000 tons of
sugar, q, 600 of which is sent to the United
States. The balance is consumed on the
island. We send to Germany a large guam.
tity of tobacco. 1t is not quite as fine az
Cuban tobacco, but finds ready sale In Ger
many. We also raise cocoa, tea, coffee and
hides. A good quality of tea grows wild.
There is also considerable expectation Of
mahogany and lOgwood."
"on what basis could reciprocity treaty
be negotiated?"
There are many reasons why such .
treaty would be beneficial. The total i'm
ports of the republic mount to about
81, 100000 a year. OF this amount the
United States sends US now only about
S750.000 worth. With a treaty faVorinR
American goods the importations from the
United States would aggregate fully S3,-
10000, displacing the cotton goods and iron
ware which we can get from England, the
fanny goods, shoes and drugs which We i'm
port from France, and beer and other arti-
cles which come from Germany. But there
is something more to be gained than nero
increase of commerce. With such treaty
the sugar industry would be greatly stim-
ulated and developed. This would mean
the Investment Of more capital and the pur-
chase OF more machinery For both of these
we would look to the United States. Al
ready 60 per cent of the sugar estates are in
the hands of Americans"
80 reciprocity with San Domingo means
the protection and development Of Ameri-
can industrieS?"
THAT is the point exactly. The money
paid US for our sugar would come directly
back To you for machinery and for the
establishment Of more sugar estates. We
can in ten years furnish enough sugar to
supply the whole Of the United States.
San Domingo is not developed. Our small
population is evidence of this There are
choice tracts of fertile lands awaiting trans
formation into plantations. As the demand
for sugar became greater efforts to increase
the supply would become all the more earn
est and progressive. Our people are wealthy
and anxious to deal with the United States.
When l tell you that there are no internal
revenue taxes, and San Domingo derives
its revenues solely from customs duties, you
can appreciate the sacrifice that we make
in cutting down the customs receipts in
order to admit American goods either free
of duty or with tariff so low that they are
given immense advantages over European
goods. Already we take your flour, lard
and provisions; in the future we would take
almost everything you manufacture. An
other strong argument from the DOMINICAN
standpoint in favor of reciprocity treaty
is tina such treaty would make the United
States Independent Of Cuba and Spain in
few years"

Umatilla Indians Want Immediate Pay for

Improvements.
WASHINGTON, April 24.-The Umatilla
Indians want the pay for the improvements
on their lands without delay. They are
very much agitated over the matter, and
some of their leaders insist that unless they
get their pay before giving up their lands
they will never hear of their money. The
Interior Department is advised by A. Clea-
yer, Register at Pendleton, Oregon, that
possibly it might save trouble between the
settlers aud Indians If an agreement co uld
be made whereby the Indians could get their
money Immediately.
A dispatch from him to Land Commis-
sioner Carter to-day is as follows: elf the
Receiver as disbursing agent VI as authorized
to pay the Indians Immediately for the
improvements, according TO the act of
March g. 1885, upon the agent Identify
