BREAD RIOTS in ITALY.
Serious Clashes Between Troops and
MObs of Hungry People.

ROME, May 6.-There were renewed bread
riots at Pavia yesterday evening. The riot
ers stretched chains across the streets in
order to prevent the cavalry charges. Sew
eral soldiers and civilians were injured A
riotouS mob surrounded a detachment of
troops at Sesyo Fiorintino and the soldiers
fired a volley, killing three of their assail-
ants and wounding four others. There were
fresh disorders at Prato, ten miles north
west of Florence, to-day
The extension of the bread riots to CEN
trail and northern Italy is regarded as an
extremely serious feature of the case be-
cause the people in that section are more
enlightened and better educated and there
would be, therefore. difficulty in suppressing
agitation Some of the worst rioting has oc-
CURED at Pavia. Among the killed is a
student, son Of Signor Mussi, vice presi-
Dent of the Chamber of Deputies. The news
of this has caused trouble at Milan, Signor
Mussi being very popular there. con-
fiict occurred between the troops and riot
ers and one was killed on each side and
many injured. At Plato and Florence there
has been serious trouble. The latter city
has been occupied by troops. 1t is believed
that the censorship stops the worst news.

M,KEE,s POPULARITY.
Speculation ms to the Delay in II
Appointment.

Speculation ms to the Delay in His
Appointments.
The feeling among the officers of Camp
Mount is varied as to the delay in the APP
pointment of w. J. Mckee to be general
of the brigade In some quarters 1t is
thought the delay is but a natural one, the
appointment being held back because of the
rush Of other business of the administra-
ton, and that there can be no DOUBT that
he will in the end be appointed. The men
cannot see how it could be otherwise after
the full information given the department
in regard to the feeling of the people of
Indiana in the matter and the great in
fluence Mckee has on his side. Besides,
they point out, no other candidate has
arisen in the State for the appointment
unless the application has been made di-
rectly to the President and kept secret
from the Indiana officials. Others, however,
think the delay is fatal in its significance
to General McKee's appointment and that
after the men are all mustered into the
federal service the nomination of some
the Senate by the President. The universal
popularity which Mckee has in the camp is
undsturbed, and but for the feeling that
1t would be useless to oppose the govern
ment a storm of protest to the officials at
Washington anticipating the removal of
General Mckee would now be heard. Those
who think it now hopeless that General
Mckee will receive the desired appointment
are prophesying that when some other man
is appointed Generals Mckee will bring to a
close his nearly twenty years Of service in
the militia

PARKS FOR NORTHEAST
BOARD OF WORKS GREATLY CUR
TAILS THE SYSTEM.
Reduced to About Eighty-Three Acres
boundaries of the Bene-
fitted District.

In taking the formal steps for acquiring
lands for the Pogue's Run Park yesterday
the Board of Public Works totally ignored
the wishes of residents of the northeast
section of the city and decided on curtailing
the system to the lands owned by the John
Hancock Insurance Company, George B.
Yandes and small tracts belonging to a few
others, instead of beginning the system
further down town. Only about eighty-three
acres are included in the condemnation pro-
ceedings, although the entire amount of land
petitioned for by the northeast residents
QSO acres) could have been purchased for
less than $4,000. People residing in that
section of the city assert that the board
has been particularly short-sighted in this
case. as the original cost of the land is
small and the expense of improving it would
be remarkably light, as the ground now is a
natural park itself.
Along with the condemnation proceedings
the board fixed the boundaries of territory
within which benefits will be assessed
against abutting property The district as
sessed for benefits is about twice as large
as the land taken. The boundary of the
benefited territory is described as follows
Beginning at the juncture of Parker and
Rowland avenues, thence north, northeast
and northwest to and along Massachusetts
avenue to the north line of Section 80, east
to the Belt Railroad south to the line of
Rowland avenue, and thence west to the
place of beginning. II is said that the bene-
fits assessed will amount to about $1,000 a
little over % per cent. of the amount that
is to be paid for the lands condemned. The
property owners most heavily assessed as
benefited are: George 3. YandeS, the Con-
nectcut and John Hancock Mutual Life In
surance companies, Mary Gale Smith and
John H. VaJen. Many others owning lots
in S. X. Fletcher's South Brookside addi-
ton are also assessed for benefits.
Besides the Yandes and Hancock lands
the board proposes to take small tracts be-
longing to S. j. Cummings, John H. Vajen,
c. hlllmer. NJ. H. Ruddell and M. Robbins.

The war revenue Bill discussed.

WASHINGTON, May 6.-The Senate COM
mittee on finance spent to-day considering
the amendments suggested by the Republic
an senator's, as a body, and by Senator
Walcott, as an individual to the stamp tax
schedule of the war revenue bill. These
amendments were largely matters of detail,
but all were intended to increase the vol
ume of revenue to be derived from the pro-
posed law Mr.. Wolcott's amendments were
intended to extend the provisions so as to
make them applicable, as, far as possible.
to all classes of individuals: He expressed
the opinion, in pressing his suggestions,
that the general distribution of war taxes
had the effect of causing the people to be
more patriotic than they otherwise would
be- Some of the amendments look to taxing
the transactions of the grain and produce
exchanges, especially those bearing upon
dealings in futures.
Several changes were adopted and the pro-
ceedings were generally of "a harmonious
character. Indeed, there has been no marked
division except over the bond question and
that as to the amount of revenue the bill
shall yield. The differences were ernpha-
sized again in to-day's proceedings.

Indiana,s Fightine strenr,h

Yesterday morning Colonel Wilson, Gov

of men of war age that the State could
muster by calls for volunteers and drafts.
