ANOTHER SEVERE STORM,
But Thanks to Warnings Very Little
Damage Was Done.

Boston, February 20.-A severe north
easterly gale, accompanied by heavy rain
during the day, changing to snow to-
night, has been the main feature of the
New England weather for the past u
hours. Again the telegraph and tele-
phone wires suffered and as during the
storm of three weeks ago, these in the
southern part of New England had to
stand the greatest strain. AS rule the
shipping on the coast received warnings
of the storm approaching, SO that few
vessels were caught outside. A number
of schooners scudded in from the east
ward before the gale. The tide today
along the coast was also very high and
the heavy surf swept far upon all the
exposed beaches causing some damage
to summer property. Clear and colder
weather is anticipated tomorrow.

plosion in the pulpit of the First Congre-

a slight fire, caused panic among the
congregation, and while no one was In

minutes. The regular pastor. was away
and Rev. j. Burnham Davis occupied the
pulpit. He did not understand the pull
pit lamp, and turned on the gas without
lighting it. The janitor then came up
and Investigated with lighted match.
The explosion which followed shook the

FUNERAL OF FRANCES WILLARD.

New York, February 20.-The funeral
services over the remains of Miss Frances
E. Willard, resident of the Worlds and
the National W. c. T. T., took place to-
day in the Broadway Tabernacle. The
service was held in this city by the official
decree of the W. G. L. u, because of
Miss Wizards many friends and admir-
ers i n the east.
On Thursday next service will be
held at Evanston, Ill. Before final inter-
ment takes place, however, the body will
lie in state in Willard hall, at the W. c.
T. U. temple at Chicago, probably tho
greater portion of Wednesday next, ard
while en- route to the western n metropolis
will also lie in state for a short time in
Church vile, N. Y, Miss Wizards birth
place.
The church was crowded, among the
attendants being many women from
neighboring states, representing the state
unions.
A great many floral tributes Lad been
received, and these together with palms,
were used as decorations in the church.
Miss Willard's request that her funeral
service be simple, was carried out. Por-
tions of the Scripture were read and
hymns sung, ,and then the Methodist Epls-
copal service was read. Rev.E s. Tipple,
pastor of ST. James Methodist Episcopal
church, was the principal officiating
clergyman. He was assisted by Bishop

Washington, February 20.-Unless the
Cuban question or some phase OF the
Maine disaster should come before the
House this week, the time with the ex-
ception of tomorrow, which under an ar.
rangement made last week. will be given
m to the consideration Of private bills,
and will be devoted nominally at least
to the sundry civil appropriation bill. 1t
Is understood that the information re-
last week by the House has been prepared
by the state department and is ready
for transmittal.
In view of the condition of public sen.
timent pending the result of the official
investigation into the cause of the disas-
ter to the Maine, it is considered prob
able that the answer of the state depart
ment will be withheld for several days.
A stirring debate involving the recent
sensational events in connection with
the explosion of the Maine, the recall
of the Spanish minister and the latest de.
velopments in Cuba may be precipitated
at any time.
The diplomatic and consular and the
military academy appropriations will be
considered and passed by the Senate dur
ing the week. There will be less debate
in executive session of the Hawaiian an,
nexation treaty, and speeches will be
made on the claim of Mr.. Corbett to a
seat in the Senate on the appointment OF
the governor of Oregon. The Corbett
matter will not be pressed except to the
end of having the speeches so far disposed
of as to make sure that getting vote at
the time fixed, a week from tomorrow.
1t is understood to be Senator Aliens
intention to make an effort to secure the
Incorporation in the consular bill as an
amendment, his provision for the recog-
milton of the Cuban belligerenoy, and If
he should make this effort the result
| might be a general discussion of the
Cuban question. While. however, this is
among the possibilities 1t doesTnot at
this time appear probable for the Senate
is not now in mood for the opening of
the question pending the Maine inyesti-
cation.
Independently of the Cuban amendment
the diplomatic bill is likely..to cause de.
bate on other questions.
The advisability of amending this ap-
preparation bill with provision for the
annexation of Hawaii, which was at one
time considered by some of the support
ers of the Hawaiian treaty, appears to
have been abandoned.

1 to he Taken to Key West.
Havana, February 20.-Lieut. Com
mander Barnett, of the survey boat Rache,
said to correspondent of the Associated
Press today:
aYou want the facts? can tell you
there are 95 chances out Of hundred
that the investigation will show that
the forward magazine Of the Maine did
not blow up first, If it exploded at all,
and that it was not the cause Sf the ter
rifle consequences that followed. The
condition of the wreck when first stud
led and a later careful scrutiny made
this an almost absolute certainty"
Capt. Chadwick of the Maine has re-
covered considerable sums of money with
letters and other personal property from
the bodies taken from the wreck. In one
case the initials can be seen on the coat
| lining, and may serve to identify the body
of the wearer; but the harbor water is
so filthy that the marks are nearly illegi-

Some friction. it is reported, has oc-
CURED between Consul General Lee and
the other United States consuls in the
island over the distribution Of food and
supplies sent from the United States for
the reconcentradoes. The complaint is
made that, though food and money have
been coming for several weeks. nothing
has been distributed outside Havana
province.
Consul General Lee, when these mat
tiers were brought to his attention, replied
that there was not the slightest intention
to neglect the reconcentradoes in the east
ern provinces, bat he pointed out that
Havana, being the largest city, was con-
sequently more in need of succor. Ho

button to Miss Clara Barton, who has the
confidence of all parties, and who is al

from Rear Admiral Sicard saying the

no present intention of going to New

merely those of maintaining an efficient
patrol about the ship. Aside from the

thorities of the presence of the Vizcaya
in American waters. 1t is expected
that Gen. Merritt, commanding the de-

vIZCAYA Off GERS SYMPATHETIC
New York. February 19.-After cruising
around in the upper bay the letter part
of last night, a reporter of the Associated
Press boarded the Spanish cruiser Vizcaya
at 8.45 a. IN. today, in company with
Commander Sobral, naval attache at the
Spanish legation in Washington, and
other officers from the Spanish consulate
general in this city.
Everybody on board knew of the Maine 8
fate, and from the youngest apprentice
aboard to the senior officers all the Span
iards were eager to express their sorrow.
An officer, long in the Spanish navy.
said:
s'The loss of so many brave men and SO
fine ship is an appalling catastrophe.
The American navy and people have our
sincere sympathy
The idea that the Maine was destroyed
by treachery was scorned. Not an officer
on board would for moment entertain
any solution of the disaster except that
it was caused through accident. Those
spoken to confined themselves to saying:
''Such things have happened. 1t is ter
rible, but it is part of the lot of battle
ship In peace her danger Is oftentimes
as great as in war"
No one could be found on board who
vinced the slightest anxiety as to the
safety of the Vizcaya or the treatment
they would receive in New York farbor.
The extraordinary police precautions taken
for theil protection were unknown to
them until the reporter of the Associated
Press went on board. Expressions on this
subject were guarded.
The trip of the Vizcaya from Las
Palmas to New York was not without
incident. Between the Bermudas and
Cape Hatteras she ran into series of
minor cyclones, which ended in a hurri-
cane Capt. Eulate, speaking of hisIboat's s
behavior, said: sShe is a magnificent sea
boat, and despite "a hours battering of
heavy seas no accident occurred nor was
man injured"
This hurricane explains the hardness Of
the Vizcaya's arrival here, which gave
rise to some doubt yesterday as to her
W heteabouts.
