right, but in an unguarded mo-
ment, and perhaps when under the
influence Of intoxicants, commit a
crime which ultimatly lands them
in the peDitentiary. For those
kinds of individuals the ''reforma.

into requistion TO the benefit OF
such criminals as well as for the
good Of the country at large. II
such persons are placed alongside
of hardened criminals for their

are released than they were when

GRAND Forks, April 22.-The river
has risen two feet since yesterday and
the water stands only four feet lower
than the grade of the business street.
Fires for heating purposes in the base
ments of all the business blocks are ex-
tinguished. The ice is breaking up in
Red Lake river, but has not gone out.
The East-side authorities have taken the
p~recaution to raise the bridge by means
OF jackscrews to a height of several feet
above its present level. The river is
forty-three feet above low-water mark.
The flood of 1882 made it thirty-eight
feet ten inches. 1t is suggested in view
OF the fact that the actual stage of water
is scarcely as high as in 1882, that the
zero mark on which the present gauge is
based is not the same as that in use dur
ing the flood of 1882.

EAQY SNOWSTORM
Three Feet of Snow on the Level in
Some Parts of Min
nOSOta.
Farmers are Blue Over the Wheat
PrOspects-Seeding was in Prog
ress all Over the State.

ST. PAUL, April 20.-Three feet of
snow on the level on April 90 is a most
unusual thing in this state. but that has
been the amount of snow that fell in
some parts Of Minnesota. The average
fall was over one foot. The snow was
preceded by a heavy rain until 9 o'clock
last night when snow began to fall here
The few children who went to school
this morning were sent home and there
was no school this afternoon. The street
railway company had housed all it's
snow plows and were caught unprepared,
so no cars ran regu arly this morning on
the electric lines. This morning most of
the cars are again running
Minneapolis had even a worse time
than st. Paul, having no cars running all
day and at Saltwater cars were showed
up on the street, being caught in all
parts of the city.
The storm struck Duluth and lake
cities at noon and has ragged furiousiy
ever since. All over the state seeding
was in progress. but tine storm will delay
work from ten days to two weeks. In
addition to preventing seeding the great
amount of snow will be followed by dis
astrous floods il it melts rapidly. Farm
ers are feeling rather blue over the
wheat prospects. They fear the season
will be shortened so as to prevent the
proper ripening of the grain.
In the Twin Cities business was al
most completely suspended today. but
things are picking mp slightly this even
ing. Morning railroad trains did not
suffer much, but afternoon trains we're
from one to five hours late. The storm
covered almost the entire northwest
from jamestown, \. d, to Ashland,
Wis, and south clear across Iowa. IN
Minnesota tIe fall was from eight inches
to three feet and drfted badly in some
sections.
a raging storm is reported tonight at
Gankton. s. d., and cold weather in
that state causes fears Of damage to
stock.

DROWNED LIKE RATS.
Fourteen Laborers Find n Grave i'm the

Fourteen Laborers Find IA Grave in tho
ley Waters of Lake Michigan.
MILWAUKEE, April 2O.-Fourteen Ia.
borers employ ed in the Intake tunnel
found a grave in the icy waters of Lake
Michigan early this morning. The
dreadful storm raging throughout the
night had dashed the lake into a seeth.
ing mass of foam. Immense waves were
rolled towards the shore by a furious
east wind and carried away the house
built on the ton of a crib at the mouth
of the tunnel about three-quarters of
mile from the pumping works at the
foot of North street. The house on the
crib contained two stationary engines
and the tools used by tho men. 1t was
built of heavy timbers fastened with
iron bands. Yet it was swept into the
roaring waters like an egg shell and its
parts washed ashore. For a mile or two
the shore of the lake is strewn with
timbers, boards, tools and articles of
clothing worn by the men in the ll-fated
crib. The catastrophe is supposed to
have occurred about 5 o'clock this morn.
ing. At daybreak the men at the pump
ing station noticed that the house on
crib had disappeared. They telephoned
the news at ono to tine police depart
ment, which notified Captain Peterson
Of the life saving station. On account
of the frightful sea, the tug welcome
took the life boat with a crew of five
in tow and headed for the tunnel. The
battle of the Welcome against the angry
waves vas watched by thousands Of peo-
pie on shore whom the report of the acct
dent had drawn thither. When Capt.
Petersen, after almost superhuman eff
forts, succeeded in reaching the crib by
means of a rope and with a life pre- server
around his body, he was met by a horri-
bic sight, One man, James Miller. was
still alive and clinging to a post. About
him were the corpses of two or three of
his comrades. Miller was rescued and
conveyed to Emergency hospital where
be gave the following account of the ac-
cident:
1T was ) o'c ock in the morning when
we found that water was entering the
air tight compartment Of the shaft where
we had taken refuge for the night. We
took IA vote to decide whether we would
risk leaving the shaft. 1t was decided
to leave. Only live Of us succeeded in
reaching the outside. The nine men who
were not strong enough TO get out were
drowned by the wa or coming into the
shaft, and four out Of the tive who got
out were manglcd or drowned by the
tremendous foods which were dashed
over the Glib, At what hour the house
was washed away ! Go not know. 1t
had disappeared when we got out Of the
shaft"

WASHINGTON, April % private let
ter from a United States official in IIa-
wall came in the mail last night. In
reference to the report that Commission.
er Blount had directed the lowering of
the United States flag without consult
ing with Minister Stevens. Admiral
okerrett or any of the representatives of
the United States il Honolulu, the writ
Ell states that Blount did have a consul
tation with Minister Stevens on the
subject, and while he does not say SO in
so many words. the Inference to be drawn
from his letter is that Stevens conceded
with the commissioner in his actions.
Another report, and one that has found
much currency in Honolulu. is that the
Japanese in Hawaii are contemplating
resistance by force to American DONNA
ton of the islands and that they have
received arms to assist them IN this de-
termination, is contradicted by the writ
er, who states that the Japanese, and in
fact all the people of the islands, are
peaceably inclined and do not anticipate
trouble. That in point of fact the only
agitators there at present are the news

the Western Passenger association for
the last six weeks went by the board to-
day. All the members of the ~associa.

Five Preachers sued. for Twenty Thous-
and Dollars Damage.
MACON, Mo.,,April 2O.-A libel suit of
a remarkable character came up 10 court
here today. 1t is a suit for $4,000 dam
ages brought by the st. James military
academy against REV. j. NJ. Gaiser OF
the Cumberland Presbyterian church
Rev. w. McMurray, of M. E. church
south; Rev. w. ii. Barnes, of the First
Baptist church; Rev. Duncan Brown, OF
the First Presbyterian church and Rev
j. L. Enyart, Of the M. E. church, all of
this city.iIThe school is an old one and
OF high standing. Up to 1892 it was an
~Episcopalian institution, but in that
year it was sold, becoming a non-sectar-
ian institution. 1t has been in charge
since Of Col. W. Flees and faculty.
Among other things dancing has been
taught and dances given by the students.
As a result, evidently forgetting that the
church no longer controlled it, the
preachers named issued an address de-
nouncing the school, principally for
dancing. This they caused to be pub
lished and republished until out of a
newspaper war grew a libel suit. A large
audience was present in court and when
the case was formally called, the plaintiff
asked leave to tile an amended petition
which was granted and the defendants
then filed an amended answer. On the
recalling of the case both sides answer
ed ready, and the work of selecting "a
Jury began.
