Crater Eruptions In Chill Turn a Beauti-
full Valley Into a Desert.
PANAMA, May4-Regarding the floods
in the Lunahuana district of Chill the
Lima Opinion Nacional has published
the following letter: The beautiful val
ley of Lunahuana, Chill, has experienced
a Typographical change, and that which
was formerly a delightful spot is now a
desert. Fifteen craters have been IN
tinually at work since Sunday 22d,
throwing out masses of mud, which, in
its precipitate descent, and with the
monstrous strength of a current, is carry
ing ruin in all directions and sweeping
houses before it, together with their in
habitants and cattle, vineyards, farms
and irrigation works. All the roads
north and south of Lunahuana have beer
converted into bitches, through which
the water is continually pouring, and all
communication between Canete and
Chincha is interrupted, while the bridge
across the river has been swept away.
Hundreds of families have been left
without homes and are camping out on
the hillside, the only clothes they have
being those in which they escaped.
They are preparing to cross the ravines,
as the floods may sweep down upon them
at any moment.

ern Railroad Interests.
New YORK, May 4.-Jay Gould sat in
his Office in the Western Union building
this afternoon and talked to a Sun repre-
sentative about some matters which are
of great interest to the financial and rail-
road worlds. II think" said Gould,
"that the meeting Of the Western Traffic
association on Wednesday will be an en-
tirely harmonious one. l have heard Of
no railroads whose action is apt to be of
a different character. / think the
association will be productive of great
good" "Do you not think," he was asked,
"that before any great results can come
from the association it will be necessary
to start it on new lines-such, for in
stance, as the establishment of joint
agencies for the handling of competitive
business?" 1T will not be necessary"
said Gould, 'to start the association
anew in order to accomplish this. In
fact, (guardedly,) I think it quite posi-
BILE that very point of joint
agencies will be very seriously
considered at Wednesdays meeting.
The association should prove a powerful
influence for good, and the effect of its
future actions should be strong. You
remember that when it was formed it
caused a turn in the tide. It undoubt-
eddy averted a panic. The interstate
commerce commission has declared pool
ing illegal; that is, a division of money
after it has been earned. Indeed, there
was a grave question among railroad
men as to the legality of this. Parti-
tioning of traffic is a different matter,
and courts have already decided the
principle to be a legal one in a somewhat
analogous case. In case of an express
company making contract with a railroad
for the transaction of its business these
joint agencies would be Independent.
The head of each one would
apportion off business equally to
the roads concerned. Idon't see how
any trouble could arise through payment
of unlawful commissions by certain rail-
roads. In our southwestern associations
we had no trouble of that kind. Weekly
statements would be submitted by each
agency to various roads showing each
ones share of business. There would be
no inducement to cut rates. I suppose
present weakness in stock markets arises
from exports of gold which have caused
tightness in money markets. My trip to
the west made me feel very hopeful. I
found crops in fine condition and people
generally encouraged"

The Carpenters Compromising.

ST. Louis, May 5.-The prospects for
a settlement between the carpenters and
master builders on an individual basis
becomes more bright, as there were
some 300 less men out to-day than yes
terday. The great majority of these
were those who refused to work for less
than forty cents per hour yesterday
morning, but secured employment before
nightfall at standard wages. Two more
of the firms who stood off last Friday
asked for union men at forty cents an
nour this morning. This leaves only
about 200 carpenters out, and it is
claimed these can secure employment
elsewhere than they have been working,
but they believe their employers will
concede their demands. The painters
are still out, with no apparent weakening
on either side.

injury whatever was done to either per-

which seemed to have been the object of
the assemblage at the parish prison. We
have referred to the large number
of citizens participating in
this demonstration, estimated by
judges from 5000 to 5000, regarded as a
spontaneous uprising of the people. The

He is one of the landmarks along the

New Orleans Sentiment.

New ORLEANS, May 6.-The States
says: The report of the grand jury
brings to light a number of startling
facts, all more or less directly concern
ing the assassination of the late superin-
tendent of police in this city. The mis-
carriage of Justice in the prosecution of
the murderers and the subsequent lynch
ing of the latter in the parish prison.
Naturally the grand jury could indict no
one or no number of persons concerned
in this. The ~"people" did it, and no
grand jury could devise a way to indict
the people"
The Times says: The grand jury has
made a proper return in the parish pris-
on lynching--a return that will meet
with the approval of the entire people,
not of New Orleans alone, but of the
country. The case had, indeed, been
tried by the press before the bar OF pub
lie opinion and a verdict of not guilty
and and a finding of "well done' had
long since been returned as to the men
whose act suppressed the Malta and gave
warning to the criminals of Europe that
they would find no home in this oun
try.
The Picayune says: We accept the
declaration of the inability of the grand
jury to get information as to the partici-
pants in the storming of the parish pris-
on. Doubtless there was large sympa-
thy in the community with the perpetra-
tors of the act after they were commit
ted, but sympathy after the fact is not
guilt and not participation. The grand
jury could not find the guilty parties.
That is plain enough.
