Rome, June 10.-The new Italian
parliament was opned today with great
ceremony by King Humbert in person.
The city was decorated for the occa-
sion, and huge crowds of people were
assembled. King Humbert and Queen
Margaret were enthusiastically cheered
as they drove through the streets,
which were lined with troops. The
king in his speech from the throne said:
'"The italian people have so clearly
manifested their opinion at the polls
that no doubt remains regarding the
questions which require the promptest
discussion by the assembly. The peo-
pie recognize that the finances Of Italy
occupy the foremost place in this con-
nection, and that the most strict re-
trenchment Of the expenditures Is
necessary in order to raise Italy's
credit abroad. Parliament will then be
asked to devote itself to the important
questions of communal finances and
administration and to judicial re-
FORMS
He also said that he trusted that this
and other legislation would do much
to draw together the various classes
of the population. He dwelt at length
upon the friendship existing between
Italy and Great Britain and upon their
cooperation in Africa, saying that the
policy of Italy in Africa henceforth
would be one of consolidation of her
possessions, and not of adventure. He
concluded by remarking that he relied
upon the efforts of the membsrs Of
Parliament to maintain the editice of
national unity erected by his father,
Victor Emanuel
The speech was applauded on all
sides, and there were repeated cheers
for the king Only the Socialists were
absent frnm the onening of parliament.

STUDENTS IMPROVING.
Princeton Men Shot by John Collins Will
Probably Recover


Trenton, N. j., June 10.-John Collins,
the colored man arrested for shooting
Garrett Cochrane and Frederick Oil.
Princeton students on Saturday, made
statement in Jail this morning. He
says that he was attacked by the
students, and that they were striking
him in a hallway when he fired He
also claims that he had no intention
of killing 'them, and only fired to scare
them. Downes, the other colored man
arrested. says he was in the saloon and
did not see the shooting.
The condition of the two students is
matter of great interest in Princeton
today. While their chances of recovery
have improved, and though each
passed good night, there is still great
anxiety felt for them. The commence
ment exercises go on as usual.
There Is great feeling against the ne
groes of the town. The colored people
are not allowed on the campus. There
Is much talk Of boycotting the negroes
and giving them no employment as
walters, etc. 1t Is not probable that
the boycotting will be carried out very
effectively, as there are large numbers
Of negroes employed in various capac-
tiles about the college.

COAL TRADE DEPRESSION.
Tho Outlook Is Gloomy England Is
OycrstOckcd.

oNSTStOCkCu.
New York, June 10.-Anthracite coal
men continue to deplore the condition
of the trade. There has been no eff
fective settlement between the compa-
MES yet, and the three days alternate
working agreement seems to have re-
suited in little or no relief. Today
President Thomas Z. Fowler, of the New
York, Ontario and Western railroad
summed up the situation as follows:
ut must be admitted that the anthra-
cite coal trade and traffic are in a de-
plorable state. Notwithstanding re-
striction on the basis of working all
collieries half time, markets at tide
water, in the east and throughout New
England, are overstocked and prices
and rates are completely and utterly
demoralized. The production this year
already exceeds that of last year by
more than 100000 tons, and coal is
freely offered at less than SO a ton at
New York, Boston and other tidewater
points. This situation means to the
producer and anthracite coal carrying
roads the actual loss of many millions
OF dollars. In short, conditions are
even more discouraging and the future
less promising than for the last four
or five years."

WAR Ships FOR FLORIDA
The Coast Will BE Guarded by the
Raleigh.
WATCH FOX FILBUSTERERS
The Opinion Is General That Such Step
Is Unncccssary-Filb Now
Fully Defincd-The Situation
at Havana.

Washington, June 10-Secretary Her.
bert said today that 1t had not yet been
determined whether war vessel should
be sent to the Florida coast to prevent
n filibustering expedition going to as
slst the Cuban rebels. Naval officials
generally are of opinion that there Is
| no necessity for any such action by the
United States.
| The position of the state department
heretofore has been that 1t Is the duty
| of the United States to prevent an
armed expedition going to make war
upon a nation or the possessions of
| nation with which we are at peace, but
there is nothing to prevent the sale of
arms or the munitions of war. 1t has
| been held heretofore that a torpedo
boat taken apart and shipped in sec
tions could not be prevented by this
government, but II the torpedo boat
should be fitted and sailed from port
of the United States. this country
would be responsible. 1t also has been
held that this government could not
be required to prevent men from TAX
ing passage on a ship bound for Cuba,
unless they We're a drilled and armed
force
1t is apparent that a nice distinction
may be made between what is and
what is not filibustering expeditions, If
attempts should be made by Americans
to assist the Cuban rebels.
Havana. June 10.-Captain General
Martinez de Campos Is to leave this city
today for the Province of Puerto Prin-
cipe.
Colonel Canellas. in command of a de-
| tachment of troops has had an engage
ment with a band of insurgents at Sc

commanded by Jose Maceo. On the
side of the troops Lieutenant Nieto and
two soldiers Were wounded. The insur-
gents lost two killed and had seven
wounded. The troops also captured
some arms and ammunition.
The insurgents have fired upon
| coast guard vessel which was watching
the coast between Punta Gorda and
Sabanilla de Matanzas. One volunteer
was killed and one was wounded.
Washington, June 10.-Late this
afternoon. Secretary Herbert settled
all doubt as to the course to be taken
by this government by issuing orders
to the Raleigh to proceed at once to
Key West, Fla. She will be retained
there to watch the filbusterers and see
that no more expeditions leave this
country for Cuba with contraband of

MURDER AND SUICIDE.
Henry Litkey Shoots Lizzie Coleman and
Then Puts Bullet Through His Own
Head

Head.
Hyannls, Mass, June 10.-The quiet
village Of Osterville was greatly ex-
cited this morning by the murder of
Lizzie Coleman, 13 years of age, while
on her way to school, by a German
laborer named Henry Litkey, who
afterward committed suicide by shoot
Ing. Litkey was a married man, with
wife and three children in Germany,
and has been employed on the farm Of
Mr. S. s. Leonard for the last six years.
For the last six months he has been in
fatuated with the Coleman girl His
infatuation was not noticed by the fam
lily of the girl until recently, when her
parents forbade his coming to the
house.
After his visits were forbidden he
wanted his presents returned, which
request was refused. The girl with her
two brothers started for school about
$50 this morning. Litkey was in the
habit of meeting her on the way to
school for the purpose of speaking with
her, and often intercepted her on her
way home. He Immediately fired two
shots at one of the boys, missing him.
Then he turned to the girl and shot
her twice. He next turned the weapon
on himself. the ball passing through his
mead. Both probably died instantly.
Litkey was about so years of age and
was an Intelligent man.

OUR DUTY TO SPAIN.
Dcpa rtmcnt Officials Consider the Advis.
ibility of Guarding the Florida Coast

Dcpa rtmcnt Officials Consider the Advis.
ibility of Guarding the Florida Coast
Washington, June 10.-Ohcials of the
state and navy departments are consid-
ering the advisabilty of sending a war
ship to guard the Florida coast to pre-
vent filibustering expeditions from
leaving the United States for Cuba, but
an embarrassing question has arisen
to prevent immediate action. BY or
dering a vessel to guard that part of
the coast line, 1t Is feared this govern
ment may place itself in the position Of
being held responsible by Spain for neg
lect in not having done so before. Such
action it Is contended, would be "A viz
tual acknowledgement that the United
States have failed to do their duty
toward the Spanish government, with
which they are in friendly relations.
1t is also feared that even if Spain
should waive the right to claim dam
ages for previous neglect by this
country, embarrassment would likely
arise If any filibustering expeditions
succeeded in evading the patrol.
AS the matter stands the officials OF
the state and navy departments think
1t is best to go slowly, trusting in the
meantime to increased vigilance on the
part of the revenue cutter service of the
treasury department

1.-THE Colima was lost because she
was badly handled by officers without
capacity and bad men when the gale
struck u.s. When l saw that the ship
was going to sink, I went aft to the life
preservers and commenced to give them
out to the passengers. The steward
told me to let them alone and ordered
me forward.
II was saved because I got a life pre-
server, and II the others had been al
lowed to get them, too, many would
have been saved with me. The pas
sengers were kept penned up until the
last moment and then made to go

If some Of the passengers had killed

OARSMEN IN TRAINING,
Coach Woodruff and tho University OF
PENNSYLVANIA Crew at poughkccpsic.

Coach Woodruff and tho University OF
PENNSYLVANIA Crew at Poughkccpsfe'
Poughkeepsie, N. Y, June 10.-This
was another fine day for the training
of the college crews. The Pennsylva-
MAS and the Columbia crews, Varsity
and freshmen. were all out and rowed
up the river. The University of Penn
sylvamas had a long row this
morning. Coach Woodruff pulled bow
in place of Peterson, who Is still suf-
fering from the abscess on his right
hand, and Peterson occupied a position
on the crews launch. May. The boys
hugged the west shore and pulled to
Hyde Park, a distance of six miles. An
average of about thirty-one strokes
was attained until West Park was
reached, when the boys boarded the
launch and the shell was towed back
to the crews quarters.
The Quakers are on the anxious seat,
and will be until Peterson's hand will
permit him to resume his position in the
bow. The crew has no substitute here,
and will not have until the Pennsyl-
vania freshmen row the race at Ithaca
on Friday next. They will then come
to this city, but it will be too late to
start training for the great race on
June q.
Neither of the crews was on the river
in the afternoon until about O'Clock.
About an hour before that time the
Quakers' launch came to the front OF
Main street and took on board a party
of Vassar girls, who followed the men
over the course as they were coached
by George Woodruff. The Quakers are
beginning to be quite a favorite crew of
the Vassar girls, and many of the boys
return their welcome visits.
Mr. Peet, the Columbia coach, said
today that he considered the Pough-
keepsie course the finest in the world,
and Mr.. Woodruff talks in much the
same way. If the Cornell men are as
well satisfied, the race ought to be-
come a regular Poughkeepsie event.

ADVANCE IN STEEL RAILS.
The Old Price Of S2l Per Ton Will Soon
BE Restored.

Philadelphia, June 1O.-The bulletin
of the American Iron and Steel asso-
ciation, the organ of the iron and steel
manufacturers of this country, in its
issue of today says that an advance
will soon be made in the price of steel
rails. Notwithstanding the fact that
in 1894 there was a great decline in the
prices of all other kinds of iron and
steel. Bessemer steel rails of standard
weight remained at S24 per ton through
out the entire year. Bessemer pig iron,
steel billets, finished bars. ETC.. fell in
price during the year from 81 to SO per
ton, but steel rails remained at the
same figure, regardless of the decline
in ather prices.
In January of the present year the
price of rails was reduced So per ton,
or from s24 to $22, and the latter figure
has ruled since the first of the year.
The old price of $24 will, however, in all
probability. be restored at an early
