II is remarkable how the cotton crop
is turning out this season. Two
months ago there was not planter in
our parish but who was down hearted
over the prospects, and who said that
there would not be half crop made
iu the parish. Since then orr planter
friends have changed up considerably
and their faces are all smiles. It is
gratifying to know that they will al
most make full crop, and that they are
receiving a good price for their cotton.
Our parish is iu a good condition and
if the water can ou!y be kept off for
another year or two it will be
the garden spot of the cotton belt.

WILL DECLARE A BOYCOTT
Whole Country to Be Affected by
the Baltimore Strike.
Garment Makers Desire to Arbltrate,
But the Manufacturers Refuse
Recognition.

Baltimore. March 27.-Uniess the cloth
ing manufacturers Of Baltimore come to
terms with the 5000 striking garment
workers. or express their willingness to
arbitrate their points OF difference by
Monday morning, a boycott Will be declared
against Baltimore clothing all over the
United States.
The Garment Workers are firm. the
Federation of Labor is back or them, ard
everything, they assert, Is in readiness for
that powerful organization 10 play what
it considers its trump card.
Heretofore the boycott was confined to
only two Baltimore firms. After Monday
all BaItimGre-niade clothing win be ac-
lively boycotJed, should no agreement be
arrived at.
This decision was reached today at
prOtracted meeting OF the strike leaders.
1t was also decided to issue a circular
making an appeal To labor organizations
throughout the United States for funds TO
support the 6,000 Baltimore strikers.
The local labor unions have given finau-
cial aid To the strikers during the four
weeks they have been out Of work, and
81 600 was received tO1ay from New York,
but more money must be had soon.
Geuerai Secretary White, who is in charge
ef the strike, is iu favor OF arbitrating the.
difference between the strikers and the
garment workers, but it IS not likely that
he will be given an opportunity 10 do so, as
the manufacturers say that there j. moth

cline 10 recognize the strikers save as

NJ MILAN PROMISES It

DISTRICT IN THE SENATE
Conference Held Over the Proposed
Changes in the Soldiers Home Rail-
way-CarrolI Site Selected for the
New Printing office-Severu Bills
of Local Interest.

Senator Mcmillan 50 id yesterday afternoon
that the bill TO complete the Lydecker tun-
mel and the reservoir near Howard Uni
versity and SO give Washington an ample
supply OF water for twenty years to come
would certainly pass the Senate this ses-
sion.
He believed there was no doubhit would
pass the HouSe and become law.
The statement WAS made To President
S. W. woodward OF the board of trade,
Chairman Archibald Greenless, and Mr..
w. G. Dodge of the water supply committee
or that organization. They called on him
yesterday afternoon as a delegation from
the board of trade to urge the passage of
the bill.
After listening to them Tor time Senator
Mcmillan said as a householder he was
familiar with the needs of the city and knew
how Just were the complaints of inability
to get water upon the second floor of resi-
dences in some localities.
He would report the measure fayorably
at the earliest opportunity. IL might be
necessary to get it on the appropriation
bill to secure its passage. Ii necessary he
would do this.
SIR. Woodward asked if it would be
likely to encounter opposition in the House.
Senator Mcmillan said he thought not. At
any rate he believed il would pass.
Along with these statements favorable
to a full supply of water is to be taken

day on the bill providing that the govern

fan upon the precious stores of the galleries
the paintings. marbles, casts, and bronzes
viii probably have been removed to the new
gallery ct the southwest corner OF New
York avenue and Seventeenth street north
west.
IL is expected that this building. so
handsome and worthy CT its future in
habitants, will be finished about August 1t
will be later. Of course, when the transfer
will be made. but possibly in the fall the
first night reception will be held.
Last night the gallery was crowded from
s until 10 O'Clock. The lights were ad-
mirably arranged with reference To the
pictures and their merits were exhibited
anew in the tender glow OF hundreds OF
incandescent lamps. 1t is not often that
one sees Washington Venus sixteen years
Of age in juXtaposition with a sister some
two or three thousand years her senior.
They differed largely in the drapcry, and
especially the balloon sleeve and russell
shoe.
one of the most unique groups ION
exhibition" last night was in the sculpture
gallery. Opposite the cast of the magni-
ficent bronze door OF the Florence Bap-
tistery was a lounge. On the lounge were
seated for aa hour six Washington ladies'.
Behind them were he three French Graces,
represented hy Catherine de Medicis, the
Countess Esiampes and Nine. Yilleroy;
on TIE Eht OF ifc local SraCCS was DaVld,
in veritable modern spring bonnet, With
a sword in his hand, and on their left
was a Mercury, wearing on his head an
inverted coal scuttIe. The sword and two
hats are really all these gentlemen wear
on dress parade. The time for this scene
was respectively 300, 500. 5000 years
ago, and the present. In this same di
vision or the gallery is the new and mag
nificent bronze of Alexander Hamilton
by Mr.. ordway Partridge.
A favorite seat in the main hall OF paint
ing is the bench before the Charlotte Cor
day, and there was also constant filling
and rerilling or the seat before the wicked
looking voiuptuous "Odallsque." In the
hall OF bronzes and porcelains, they have
put the two sleeping babies in marble on
a window sill where they are gazed at as
fast as room could BE- made for other gaZers.
In the southeast room there is new and
exquisite portrait, simply called portrait
by Jaquet, which divided the admiration
with Constants ruddy Judith.
1t was perhaps the fact that it was the
last night exhibition that kept the crowd
lingering so loag over the ma gnificeut feast
1t was 10 o clock sharp when thelorgnetteS
were replaced, wraps PIT on and the crowd
bade their ancient and modern friends good
night.

A panic occurred at Mt. Zion Baptist
Church. at Twelfth and streets north
east, last night. i'll which great loss OF
life was narrowly averted.
The boy preacher who has been
preaching in the South for some time,
was announced at Mt. Zion for last night,

nearly every colored person in the North
east and many whites turned out last
night to hear him.
The church was crowded TO its utter
most capacity and the streets were packed
for several blocks with those who could
not gain admittance. The cause OF the
panic was due TO tie carelessness of one
OF the chu rch Officers in handling a
kerosene lamp. The church is Il brick
structure and kerosene lamps are used.
As the boy was in the midst OF his
sermon one of the lamps blazed too high.
and man in his attempts To regulate
it made it worse. IL was some time be-
fore any one could be found Who could
manage the lamp.
The audience had then begun a move for
the door. Asthe lamp wasabout TO explode
someone seized il 10 throw il out OF the
window and as he rushed through the
congregation with the blazing lamp it
was knocked from his hand.
There were cries or fire, fire. and
the panic stricken audience rushed for the
exits. Men, women and children fought
10 gain the doors and those who were
hemmed in the choir jumped to the audi
torium.
Several men broke the new plate glass
windows which have recently been put in
the church IN their cndeavor to gain the
ground. The pastor and the officials
added TO the confusion by calling loudly
''Order, ORDER and women cried and
screamed. Officer Ehler, seeing the con
fusion, rushed TO the scene and by his
coolnesS prevented any casualties in the
Gro wd on the outside.
Several women were trampled, others
tainted and had 10 be carried out, and that
no lives were lost was Il miracle. Officer
Ehler cleared the streets and the crowded
ases and the services were resumed.

CARING FOR FOREIGN SICK
Omission of Appropriations VIII Re
suit in Specific Cont racts.


The omission from the Sundry civil bill
OF the customary appropriation of $3S, 900
for Providence and Garfield hospitals Will
probably result merely in contract with
those Institutions for specific services.
Heretofore the money has been paid over in
a lump 10 meet whatever demands might be
niadeupon them mformedical lattendanceupo
INDECENT persons.
Chairman Cannon said yesterday that the
appropriation had always been put in the
suudry civil bill on the theory that poor
people and crankS gather here from all
parts Of the country, and should be cared
for from the general funds. The money had
been given heretofore 10 these two hospitals
with the understanding thatthey wouldcare
for all such cases without keeping any
particular account of their services in this
respect further than that SO many beds
should be furnished for the purpose.
The proposal now is, he said, to have
the surgeon general OF the army make Il
contract for this work Just as he might
for 800 horses or any other purpose consult
ing the best interests of the government
without reference to any particular hoSpital.
With reference TO similar terms i'll the
District Appropriation bill he would not
say that the same course would be taken;
the bill had not yet been reported from the
