DEERiNC PARK.
The City's Pleasure Ground Not
Damaged Much by Last winters
Storms.

Deering Park, otherwise called the Oaks,
has wintered well and the grass on the slopes
about the pond is becoming quite green.
The Ice and sleet storms OF the past season
have proved too much for several trees
either wholly or In part and the places that
knew them will know them no more. One
large tree In particular has fallen into the
bed of the pond near the second bridge,
while branches Of others litter the ground
In all directions. In several cases the fall
ing limbs have brought down the electric
light wires that are let up through the win
ter. although the lights themselves are taken
down and housed.
Little work has been done thus far toward
putting the park In order for the summer al
though gang Of men have begun rakiDg up
the dead leaves and burning them. The
water was drained off from the pond to
make the Ice melt faster, and 1t will not be
flooded for several weeks yet, until the bot
tom is cleaned and the bitches and optlets
repaired. The fountain and duck house will
not be uncovered until just before the water
Is turned on again.
The ducks aud geese belonging to the city
have passed the cold season well and are
now turned out every day to paddle around
on the mud in the bed Of the pond. The
squirrels have also weathered the storm sue
cessfully and are lively. There are good
many of these pretty and very tame animals
of both the gray aud chipmunk varieties. and
they make no small part of the pleasure that
Is felt In the place.
The park will be put In good order before
the summer fairly opens. the wires being re-
run, the lights set. and the rubbish cleared
up and carted off. The boats will be put in
service on the pond after it is prepared and
they are painted.

THEIR ESCAPE ALMOST MIRACULOUS
When Part of the Elegant shorehan
Went Down Cellar.
Workmen Made Greater Alterations
Than They Intended.
How Yankees Ma, Trade with the
Queen of the Antilles.

WASHINGTON, April 17.-Without a mo-
ments warning, large part of the heavy
fire-proof landings connected with the stair
ways of the Shoreham, Vice President Nor
toms fine new hotel. dropped this afternoon
from the fifth floor to the basement The
upper landing broke first from its fastenings
in the walls, and in its descent, carried with
1t all those below. By good fortune. no one
was upon the landings at the time Of the ac-
cident. Some workwen were engaged In
1acking up a misplaced girder, which was
supposed to be useful as a support for q
portion of the hallway on the sixth floor.
The jack rested on the stair hallway on the
fifth floor. As that was simply a mass Of
light timbers, the resistance was insufficient
and the jack, supports and everything else
but the workmen, fell to the door below.
The sudden impact caused that to give way
also. This was repeated until the mass Of
timber and plaster landed in the basement
and blocked up the interior entrance TO the
cafe. The escape Of the wefkmen and 9TH
ers who ordinarily use the hotel stairways
was hardly short Of miraculous.

Bolivia Is In 1t, Toe.

WASHINGTON. April ia singular fact
in connection with the Italian matter which
has entirely escaped attention up 20 the pre-
sent time is that one of the leading Italians
lynched in New Orleans was actually at the
time Of his death the recognized consul at
thatport of a foreign government, but not that
of Italy. Jose p. Macheca, the alleged need of
the Mafia and the most prominent of the
victims of the mob, still stands on the
records of the state department as the duly
accredited and recognized consul of Bolivia
In New Orleans. Bolivia, without a navy or
a seaport, is very small factor among ma
tions; nevertheless it is possible that some
explanation may be asked Of the United
States as to the killing of one of its consuls.
In the New Orleans Spanish riots referred
to by Daniel Webster in the dispatches
which Mr.. Blaine quotes with so much effect
the Spanish consul was simply insulted and
compelled to take refuge in the parish pri.
son-the very building which the Parkinson
mob broke into for the purpose of lvnching
Macheca in and his associates. For the
offence to Spain the United States offered the
fullest apologies.

More Trouble Among tho HIndoos,
This Time In 6enares.

BENAREs, April 1.-THE excitement In
this city, originating from the demolition OF
a temple In order to sprovide new water
works, increases every hour. all the shops
In Benares are closed, and all the natives la
the city and district have sullenly stopped
work and are gathered In large crowds In
and about the principal thOroughfares Of
the Holy City. The result Is that ,r-sfyus
riots have already Qccnr.sa vctWeen the dis
turbed natiDss Hffu the local authorities OF
Bcnares, who are supported by the British
troops quartered In that vicinity. In re-
sponse to several dispatches sent TO the Mar

pur massacre and the murder Of Chief Com

native troops have been drafted into Benares
and further reinforcements are ON their way
to the same city. The British troops are
guarding all the banks, public buildings and
and occupy in force many points OF vantage
throughout the city and district. The even
tual effect of the spirit of resentment and
indignation existing among the Hind0os al
ready felt far and wide In India cannot at

Tho Western Congress Not a Unit In
Their Many Demands.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-. April 7.-At the
Western Congress Association meeting to-
day, the majority report of the committee on
resolutions was adopted. 1t favors the
adoption by Congress of law authorizing
the free and unlimited coinage of silver, and
the issuance of sufficient amount of legal
tender notes to be redeemable in both gold
and silver, to restore the equilibrium be.
tween money and all other products. 1t fa-
vors tariff for revenue only; urges Con-
gress to enact laws to place the tariff upon
purely revenue basis; declares that the
interstate commerce Of the country should
be controlled by the general government
favOrs equalization OF taxation, a national
bankrupt law, the suppression OF trusts and
combines, amendment of the immigration
laws, the restoration of railway land grants
to the public domain and the opening of sur
plus lands to settlement, the enactment OF
laws to prevent dealing in futures. 1t COM
mends the Secretary of Agriculture for his
eHoItS toward removing IoStIIctIUuo vn our

The minority report favors the free and
unlimited coinage of American gold and sill
yer on the ratio established by the Interna-
tional Monetary Convention, which shall
make silver aud gold equal in purchasing
power, and faVors tariff for revenue with
incidental protection.
The report of the majority was adopted
after a bitter discussion. The Minnesota
delegation retired at once as a protest against
such partisan action in so-called nOD-par-

BREAKING THE SOLID SOUTH.
Secession From, the Democratic
Ranks In South Carolina.

CHARLESTON, S. c., April ia signif-
cant political meeting was held at the state
capital yesterday. 1t was the first white
Republican meeting ever held in the state,
and is said to be largely the outgrowth of
the Alliance wave which swept over this
state last year. At the meeting were many
citizens who have been heretofore as
sociated with the straightout Democratic
party. Among them were DIR. Bowen, Mr..
Hannah of Spartanburg. James Hunter of
Union, DR.. Monroe of Union and others.
Fifty.one clubs were represented. The
meeting elected delegates to the Republican
League convention, which meets at Cincin-
natl on April 81.
This movement is regarded with some con-
cern here by the old line Democrats taken as
it is in consideration of the reported declara-
tion of the Alliance in favor of third party
The white Democrats who are in it say that
the old Democratic party has been elbowed
out of existence by the farmers movement,
and as they will not subscribe to the plat
form and principles of that movement they
will go into the Republican party There
are so many Democrats in this state who are
disgusted with the Tillman administration
that there is some prospect of the new move-
ment developing into stampede from the
Democratic party as it exists in this state at
present
