HEPBURN'S SCHEME.
How He Will Retaliate Upon Demo-
cratic Members.

WASHINGTON. April 21-The session
of the House was exceedingly dull to-day.
The only feature was the announceme Dt
by Hepburn Of Iowa that he proposed in
the future to retaliate ON the Democrats
for blocking pension legislation at the
Friday night sessions by refusing all re-
quests in the House for the passage OF a
bill by unanimous consent. All members
have greater or less number of small
bills to pass in this way and Mr.. Hepburn's
announcement caused quite furry.
About one hour was spent in the further
consideration of the diplomatic and con-
sular bill. and after o'clock, by special
order, to-day was devoted TO eulogies on
the late Senator Gibson of Louisiana. At

THEBES IN RUINS.
The Ancient City Wrecked by an
Earthouake

ATHENS, April 21.-Later information
shows that 10 some of the districts there
has been great loss to life in addition to
the destruction of property by the earth
quakes. The inhabitants are very much
alarmed to-day at fresh shocks, and 1t Is
feared that the worst has not yet hap
pened. The shocks to-day shook the
northern wing of the palace. A large
stone fell out of the gate of Hadrian. The
villages at Atalanta suffered terribly.
Larymin. Proskina, Malesinza, Mazi. Pella
and Martina are in ruins. Serious dam
age has been done at Cbalcis and several
villages on the island of Euboa. AT
Thebes 800 houses fell to-day. The city
is in state Of panic and restitution. The
terrified people rushed in crowds away
from Thebes, believing that the end OF the
world had arrived. The Government Is
sending tonight warship to Thebes with
800 tents. large number Of surgeons and
detachment of engineers and supplies OF
food.

THE CRUSADE OF HUNGER.
LeweIling States His Views Upon
the Industrial Movement.

WICHITA, Kans., April Ex-Governor
Lewelling of Kansas arrived here tonight,
and for the Associated Press he wrote the
following statement of his views of the
Coxey movement in his own hand. He
has designed this for his official public eX-
preston on tho subject:
"Ihe Coxey movement is the spontaneous
uprising of the people. 1t is more than
petition-it is an earnest and vigorous pro-
test against the injustice and tyranny of
the age. The demonstration of silver has
been the last straw on the back of the
long pent-up suffering people, and they
have taken this method to protest and as
sert their manhood and independence.
The depth of this movement is not COM
pretended by the politicians of the old dis
pensations. 1t is awe-inspiring, and be-
lieving as do in divine interposition in
the affairs of men. cannot fail to see an
inspiration beyond mere enthusiasm.
''This body of men is not a mere aggre-
CATION of tramps. Some of the best blood
and bone is enlisted, and the wonderful
discipline, the patient suffering, the stead
fastness of purpose, all go to show that this
host of the Hunger Demon will not down
at the bidding of plutocracy. The follow
ing of Peter the Hermit was a rabble of
men, women and children, and here we
see vast army of unframed men all under
conscious and willing discipline. 1t is the
marvel of the times and foreshadows a
change In the politics OF the Government
of this alton. Ard what is more signii-
cant, the spirit of the times will demand
fair play and just treatment of these men.
The person or party that does them vo-
leace in this, their right of petition. will
go down before wave Of public indigna-
ton which has never been paralleed.
Here in Kansas the people should hold
public meetings and petition Congress to
afford the Industrialists food and shelter
and give patient ear to their demands.
If this is really Government of the peo-
pie shall not Congress at least give ear to
such mighty voice?
''If these men are an army of tram ps
and vagabonds they are none the less rep
resentative in character. and il the Gov
eminent crucibIe has forced the people 10
paupersm and yagabondage still the peo-
pie shall rule, and thus the voice of vaga-
bondage representing the majority must
and shall be heard"

Brownies promised sermon on relncarna-
ton and the domination of the money
power will probably depopulate the ortho-

Sunday was announced as Camp NaZa-
reth, the birthplace of the reincarnation of
Jesus Christ. who suffered the death of
the cross under the dark shadows Of Geth-
semane for being tramp like us and for

There has been great uneasiness in
Montgomery and Frederick counties over
the reported mobilization of the Coxey
men 10 that region 1t is true that a few
recruits are being taken into The army and
many are each day being sent down the
road toward the district. In Montgomery
County Sheriff Zimmerman has sworn in
forty special eonstables and he is to meet
che Commonwealers at the State line. To-
night Browne spoke in the rain On the main
street. talking for an hour and a half 10
a crowd under umbrellas.
WASHINGTON. April 81. - The Coxey
propaganda is to be spread through Wash
ington by newspaper agency. Tonight
to a meeting in Citizen Redstone's head
quarters, hitherto silent phlanthropist
came forward TO donate to the cause six
horse tally-hO coach, from the roof of
which the gospel of good roads is to be
spread abroad by local enthusiasts at the
corners until General Coxey shall come.
Representative Gotten of Wyoming, who
is claimed by the CoXeyites as one of their
own. sat on the stems of the pIalform. Mrs.
Anna L. Diggs of Kansas entertained the
people with a characteristic Populist
speech, which evoked cries of "amep"
from half n hundred women in the au-
dience. Ex-Congressman Wise of Arizona,
a Tennessee colonel named 7. B. Richerts
and Mrs. Clara Colby. editor of the Wom-
ans Tribune, also spoke. Their speeches
breathed denuncialiOn of the plutOcrals.
NEW YORK, April 21.-Geneneral Coxey
arrived in this city and put up at the
SturrevanI House to-day. After short
rest he started for Tatterssls to arrange
for the sale of eight trotting horses. He
was asked:
do you intend to devote the amount you
expect TO receive for your horses to the
support of your army?"
General Coxey seemed to look upon this
as good joke, and said: "Certainly not.

OAKLAND MOVED ALSO.
The Combined Force Only Went to
the Racetrack.

Tie RdCGtIaCk.
Yesterday evening after the parade of
the Oakland army, the men gathered at
the corner of Broadway and Ninth street
and planted big banner in the middle Of
Ninth street, around which they gathered
to make their final appeal for help. On
the banner was the following inscription ::
Ctizens-The last day has come to US. We
march tonight. help US now or never, for we
hunger by day and sbiyer by night
Appealing speeches were made by the
leaders for succor. and just In the midstof
proceedings a rousing cheer was heard
from Broadway. 1t came from the threats
of 500 men who had just landed by the
creek boat from San Francisco. The San
Francisco delegation had arrived, and
Oakland was wondering what was going
to happen.
The San Francisco army marched up
Broadway to Fourteenth street, and word
was given out that they were going TO
march through town and take the cars on
the outsk irts, but they did nothing of the
sort. At Fourteen nth street they got word
to march back to Carriers barn and wait
for the Oakland contingent. which they
did. and at o'clock the TWO armies. San
Francisco in the lead and Oakland closely
following. marehed up Broadway and out
San Pablo avenue to the Oakland race
track, where halt was called.
There was a distinct understanding be-
tween the authorities Of San Francisco and
Oakland and the railroad officials of the
Southern Pacific that the men would be
moved, but what the arrangement is will
not be divulged. 1t is said that the army
will take possession of a train prepared
fer them-some thirty-fve cars-and that
they will ride to Ogden, thence to Denver
by the Rio Grande Western and take ad-
vantage of Governor Wate's invi tation so
cordially extended to the Kelly army.
The two armies-Oakland with $50 men
and San Franrisco with 50S making SSS
in all-are camped for the night at the
racetrack, and it is thought they will take
train early this morning.
There were four women came over with
the San Francisco contingent, an marched
up Broadway, but only one-Mrs. Anna
Smith-will accompany the army East
ward. She was an army nurse. and saws
that her mission is twofold: In the first
place to watch over the men, take m otherly
interest In their welfare and see that
they are not imposed upon; and, secondly,
because the men are of opinion that she
can best present their case to the Wash
ington authorities. She said she would go
ahead OF the army to each city at which it
intended to make camp and see that it was
provided for by the people of those places.
Everything Is evidently provided for
and all arrangements fully made, for not
police officer or detective was on the
ground last night when the army went
into camp.

The editof of The Electrical World

The editof of The Electrical World says: tDynamos and motors now return 97 per cent in electricity. Electrically the arc lamp is practically perfect, whereas the incandescent admits of large improvement Electric railway traction will undoubtedly supersede all other methods for urban use Electrical trans mission of power within radius of sev. eral hundred miles of water power and in vicinity of coalfelds, where the en. ergy of coal will be distributed by means of the electric current, will prob ably entirely supersede steam. The cleo. trio light will supersede all other kinds of illumination in cities and large towns. Telephoning across the Atlantic Is an early probability and seeing by electricity possibility.
 The editor of The Electrical Review says: Electric heating is now an i'm portant element in replacing the dis agreeable and dangerous car stove and is advancing into the domain of the coal furnace and gas stove, bringing cleanliness. convenience, economy. Ev- cry housewife will rise up and call him blessed, and every husband will bless him and not rise up. ,"
 The editor of Electric Power joins all of these and goes even further. ''fn 1900 We shall probably have brought down the cost of current and utensils in such degree as to allow even people in moderate circumstances to use the cleanly current instead of the coal and gas conduit system. The disinfection of cities will probably be effected by the agency of electricity. Canalboats will be propelled by electricity.

A TRUTHFUL SAILOR.
RELATES THE EXPERIENCE IN WHICH
 HE SWoRE NEVER TO LIE.

Two Seamen, Father and Son, Swallowed
 by Shark. but Both Were Rescued In
 Marvellous Manner-A Day That Was
 Certainly Very Hot.
 Have ever seen 0 shark? Ask my mate-him that's rowing that ere cou- pie out yonder We were shipmates to- aether aboard the Rajapootah India man. His father, who is dead and gone this 90 year or more. was carpenter aboard of her.
 Well, one day we were becalmed on the line, when, says young Bill-he was young Bill then, him as I just pointed out to you--says he, I shall have 8 swim round for a cooler, for, believe me, the sun was that hot we had to shrow buckets of water on the deck to keep it from catching fire.
 ''In fact, pig we killed the day afore we hung aloft and roasted him in the sun. catching the gravy in a bucket, and he was done beautifully.
 ''So in he goes head first, with his clothes on. and me and his old man looked over the side just abaft the fore rigging to see him come to the top of the water again.
 But no Bill could we see, and in- stead of him up came tremendous shark. with his sides sticking out as if he had & cargo inside over and above his regular bill of lading
 1t was then as clear to us as the nose on our faces that poor Bill had dived clear down his throat.
 ''The poor old man had a it right away, and we carried him below and put him In his hammock and then ran up on deck again in the hope that we should be able to catch the fellow.
 But it was nowhere to be seen, so after watching some time to no pur pose we went down below to see how the old man was getting on. and to our astonishment and sorrow we found his body nearly cold and as stiff as the fly ing jibboom.
 We sewed him up in his hammock, putting the grindstone that he used to grind his tools with inside to make it sink and laid the body on 8 hatch. with the union jack sprend over 1t for a pail
