vented many violent outbreaks
In the bazars of Aleppo and Damas-

THE VETO.
Opinion of Representative Bland on the
Subiect-His Future Action.


WASHINGTON, March 81. -Representa-
tive Bland, of Missouri, author of the
Bland silver seigniorage bill vetoed.
makes the following statement con-
corning the veto, and its effect upon
the future of silver:
The main point of the veto is that the presi.
dent does not wish to infuse into the currency
any more silver until he has more bonds and a
greater gold reserve. He insists on the fight
III II has been in progress for the last year on
the one hand by those who wish to4ncrease the
bonded debt in the interest of national banks
by selling bonds for gold and for money to pay
the current expenditures of the government
and on the other hand by the representa- tives
of the people who are opposed to bond issues
and in favor Of coming the silver bullion-the
rsSets we have on hand-and using the money
u the payment of current expenditures.
Concerning the fsture of the silver
movement, Mr. Bland said:
1t is evident that under the single gold stand.
ard nothing can be done on the currency ques-
ton without consulting the few people who
the gold of the world. These pc pie have
dictated the veto of this bill. The fight from
now onFgilI be whether the people of this coun-
try shall control the currency by permitting
gold aud silver to come to the minis free. thus
supplying themselves with constitutional
money .lor whether we are to be mere slaves OF
the owners of gold in Lombard street and Wall
street The day is fast approaching when the
peoples president will sign coinage bill

LIVES LOST BY sNowsLIDEs.
Fourteen Persons Buried Beneath Tons OF
Snow.

Fourteen Persons Buried Beneath Tons OF
Snow.
SPOKANE, Wash, March 31.-As re-
suit of two great snowslides on Canyon
creek, in the Coeur d'Alene mountains,
yesterday three families, consisting al
together of fourteen persons, were
buried beneath thousands of tons of
snow, and any possibility of any of
them being rescued alive is out of the
question.
Snow had accumulated on the mount
aims to depth of fully sixty feet and
the late ruins caused the huge mass to
move at several places. Yesterday
morning a section 800 feet in length,
near the Black Bear mine, became de-
tached and started down the steep
mountain side at terrible pace, and
before the inhabitants of the cabins in
the path of the slide could flee the ava
lanche was upon them. Trees were
torn up by the roots and boulders car
ried along with mighty force, the whole
shak ng the earth as if an earthquake
was coming. Two families were car
ried along with the slide and buried
out of sight at the bottom of the can
yon.
Soon after the first slide took place
another occurred further up the canyon
near Burke. A family named Chilson,
consisting of father, mother and three
children, heard the avalanche coming.
Picking up the children the parents
attempted to flee to place of safety.
but before they had gone fifty yards
they were overtaken by the mass of
snow and crushed to death.

A sTANDPlPE FALLS.

Bad Accident at Peoria, Ill, by which
Several Persons Are Killed and In-
5urSd-
PEORIA, Ill, March S1.-Bourland
'street on the west bluff was the scene
of horrible accident yesterday. One
of the immense standpipes of the
Peoria Water Co. collapsed with deaf
ening crash, heard in all portions of
the city. The pipe has been leaking
fora number of days, and yesterday
five men ware set to work to repair it
Without sign of warning the bottom
section burst. and the steel structure
Immediately collapsed There were a
number Of school children playing close
by, and many of them with some of the
workmen were hurled a distance by the
force of water. Frank Hogan. aged II,
was instantly killed and several COM
panions sustained injuries which may
result fatally. Three of the water
company's men were badly hurt.
while two others are missing and
are presumed to be under the
wreck. Two houses were completely
wrecked by the force of the water,
while half dozen others are blown
from their foundations and badly dam
aged. Barns and other small struct-
ures were smashed % kindling wood.
The standpipe was 100 feet high and
twenty feet in diameter, built of steel
plate three-fourths of an inch thick,
and was supplied from a 80. 900, 600 gall
Ion reservoir three miles back on the
bluff, giving it tremendous pressure.
The recent cold snap and subsequent
thaw had sprung the plates aud caused
leaks. When the tower burst the spec
tators were hurled from their feet and
carried along with the rush of water.
Many of the children, although carried
a considerable distance, escaped I'M
hart The scene of the accident, which
is one of the most aristocratic portions
of the city, is swimming in water and
presents a most desolate appearance
