NO INFRINGEMENT HERE.
Congress to Fxpend About $3.50, 1900
this Year.

WASHINGTON, March 2O.-The total
appropriations of the present session
of Congress will be, approximately,
1870, 900, 600. This will exceed by a
few millions the appropriations of the
first session of the last Congress and
will disappoint those who had hoped
that the low condition of the treasury
funds would result in a material reduc-
ton in appropriations. No official
summary has been made by Chairman
Savers, or the members of the ApprO
priation Committee, but a comparison
of the bills already passed or reported,
with those of the first session OF the
last Congress, shows the total of the
bills as they leave the House will be
about 1856, 841, 759.
The Senate usually increases the bills
materially, lastyear securing increases
reaching q total of S. 900, 900, so that
the aggregate for the present session is
expected to touch 1870, 900, 600.
Eight of the great appropriation bills
have already been reported to the
House and three of them have been
passed. The total of these in their
present stage is 1904, 041, 759. This is
about SIS, 600, 600 more than the same
bills carried two years ago. OF the
bills yet to be brought into the House
an exact estimate Is not obtainable,
owing to the r with which such bills
are guarded. It is believed, however,
that they will aggregate $62, 800, 900.
Deficiency bills are not among the in
cluded, as they are not among the ap-
preparations for specific government
branches.
Should the Senate makeno increases,
the total will be almost identical with
that of two years.

THE CRISIS
Premier Casimer-P erier, of France, Again
Triumphant.

PARIS, March 19.-The Cabinet crisis
which was caused by the fact that the
Senate, on Saturday, refused to take
action on the measure, which had pre-
viously passed the Chamber of Depu,
ties. creating a special ministry of the
colonies, insteadof having that depart
ment of the government directed, as
had been the 8 up to the present, by
and under Secretary of the Ministry of
Marine, has been averted and Premier
Cashier Perier is again Triumphant.
When the Premier learned of the
Senate's failure to act upon the measure
referred to, he promptly called special
session of the Senate for to day and
allowed it to become known that he
would not remain in power without a
vote of confidence upon the part of the
Senate. When the Senate convened,
after a cOncilatOry speech from the
Premier, the bill creating a ministry
of the colonies was approved by a vote
of 225 to 80, and, later, the Senate
agreed to the grant asked for in con
nection with the creation of this new
ministry, by a vote of ZIG to 81.
The Premier was warmly Congratu-
lated by his friends upon the result of
the affair, which, since Saturday, was
looked upon as likely to have serious
results.

them to have the crowd dispense, Civ

The law abiding people of this sec

importation of pauper labor into their
midst, and in this stand they have the
sympathy of ell as long as no attempt
is made to violate the law.

A RIOT NARROWLY AvRRTED.
War on Foreign Labor by the Working
men of Altoona.

ALTOONA, Penn. March 2O.-This
was a day of considerable excitement
and violence, with a good prospect for
a serious riot. Early in the morning
over 300 men marched to what is known
as the Red Bridge, about two miles be,
low this city, and compelled the foreign
ers employed at rs cents per day on
the BellwOod Extension of the Altoona
and Logan Valley Road to cease work
and flee to the hills for their lives.
Next the crowd, by this time strongly
reinforced, proceeded to Elizabeth
Furnace, where, in the shanties, about
sixty Italians were found and bodily
thrown out and compelled to leave,
after which three different attempts
were made to fire the buildings, the
fire, however, being put out in each in
stance. During the trouble at this
point one italian was shot in the neck
and badly beaten about the head with
a stone.
The next point of attack was Bell
wood, where all foreigners found were
driven out, and then the crowd, now
fully 600 strong, returned to Altoona,
proceeding at once to the italian colony
on Ninth Avenue, between Seventh
and Ninth streets, with the avowed in
tention of cleaning the entire neighbor-
hood of both the foreigners and the
shanties of which they are tenants.

FLOODS AND CYCLONES IN THE
SOUTH.
Much Damage to Property in the Missis-
sippi Valley.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, March 2O.-The
damage to property in the Mississippi
Valley by storms and foods in the last
forty eight hours is at present beyond
calculation. Bridges have been washed
away, houses wrecked, railroad tracks
displaced, farm lands 'fattened out, !"
especially in the bottoms, and crops
have been delayed where before every
prospect has been favorable for an
early and highly favorable season for
farmers and planters.
The precipitation at Memphis in two
days reached about eight inches, There
are eleven railroads entering Memphis,
and on every one of them have wash
outs. Two miles of the track of the
Chesapeake, Ohio and Southwestern
Railroad were swept away at the
Hatchie River, seven miles north of
Memphis. The St. Louis and South
western and the Tennessee Midland
each report five wash-outs, while the
track of the former is submerged for
several miles in White River Swamp.
The storm in Arkansas was accom-
panied by high winds, and more dam
age was done in that State than in
Tennessee. A dispatch from Helena,
Arkansas, says that q cyclone struck
that place about sunset last night, IN
roofing houses, uprooting trees, blow
ing down fences, splintering telephone
poles, and doing other damage. The
roofs were blown off two stores. The
front of the building occupied by
| ZeIig's dry goods emporium, the Ridge
City Club, and the Lotus Club were
demolished. Two Of Zelig's employees
escaped death by almost a miracle.

slight damage from flying timbers.
Scores of trees were uprooted and in
Vulnerable fences were blown down.
A row of negro shanties, situated on
the levee near the Mississippi Valley
Station, was completely destroyed.
Great excitement prevailed among
business men who were cut off from
their homes by the fury of the storm.
So far as can be learned, there was no
loss of life in the city. The country q
few miles south of Helena was greatly
damaged. The storm seems to have
been more furious down the river than
in the city.
Adispatch from Chattanooga, Tenn,
says the tail of a cyclone struck that
place this afternoon and wrecked g.
number OF buildings. The wind was
followed by a terrific rain and hail
storm, which flooded the streets and
smashed windows and sky-lights.
In the vicinity of Poplar Grove and
Marvel, Ark, the cyclone wrecked q
dozen or more farmhouses and scat
tered the debris over the country for
miles around. The cyclone crossed the
river into Mississippi, near Helena,
Ark, spreading ruin in every direc-
ton. Telegraph wires are FRUSTRATED
and details are slow coming In, but no
loss of life is reported, SO far.
