Seattle, Wash, Dec. 3-The air was
sufficiently clear yesterday to permit
Mount Rainier being plainly seen and
there now remains no doubt that the
mountain has undergone many changes.
but it is due to q series OF tremendous
avalanches Of snow, ice and earth and
not to any unusual eruption.
Today it was observed that the crater
rim was intact, showing that no trouble
occurred there, but below great slices
of the mountain nave disappeared and
a bluff of sold rock saveral hundred
feet high and of unknown length has
been formed. 1t IS supposed that other
slides have occurred on the other side
of the mountain also.

ping People.

Washington, Dec. 3.-Two bills OF in
terest to shipping people were. intro
duced in the House today by Repre-
sentative Flthian, of Illinois. The leg
islation Incorporated in them was
recommended by Commissioner Cham
berlain. of the navigation bureau OF the
treasury department, in his last report.
The first bill provides that gross ton
mage instead of net tonnage shall be
the basis of computing tonnage taxes
and what is known as the three cent
rate per ton is reduced to two cents and
the six cent rate to five cents. These
changes will not affect the decreased
revenues, but viii diminish the taxes
on sailing vessels. which are now said
to be too high. and will transfer a por-
ton of those charges to steam vessels.
The second bill changes the measure
ment law also to make it conform to
those of Great Britain, Norway and
other nations and the object sought by
the proposed legislation is to diminish
the amount Of taxes which vessels OF
the United States have to pay in foreign
ports.

THE TROUBLE IN ARMENIA.
Turkish Legation Receives an One
ini Telegram About 1t.


Washington, Dec. 3.-The Turkish lega-
ton today furnished the Associated Press
an official telegram received By the min
lister for Turkey. relative to the trouble
in ArTnenia. II says it has been ascer-
tanned tina the agitators, originally from
Rcumanid stnd Greece and recruited in
Caucasus. took an important part in the
Sassun rebellion. 1t was the Armerians
of the Talourie district who started the
revolt, attacking the MuSslemen villages.
Troops were Immediately sent who never
employed more than seventy or eighty
Kurds. The facts show that far from
committing any cruelties, the regular
troops succeeded in restoring peace and
order. \ further proof that there was no
persecution of any sort is the fact that
the peaceful Armenian villages, not par
taking in the revolution movement. were
left IN perfect security and unmolestsd.
