MAY CALL An
EXTRA SESSION
Mckinley Intimates That
1t May Be Necessary.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

Call Headquarters, Wellington Hotel,
Washington, May 6.
Senator Hawley conferred with the
President to-day on several political
matters, and in the course of his talk
spoke about the reports of a probable
extra session of Congress. The PreSi-
dent did not commit himself definitely
TO the project Of calling an extra ses-
sion, but intimated that such a course
may be necessary. The President did
not say much on the subject, but all
that he did say plainly indicated the
idea of an extra session has entered
his mind, and that it may develop later
on. Senator Hawley said:
think an extra or early session of
Congress necessary; There will be more
important work before the next Con-
gress than ever before known. Besides,
the election of Speaker and the selec-
ton Of House committees will take
much time"
A number of Congressman now in
Washington desire to know something
oennlte so they can make arrange
ments about their business and house
hold affairs. There is no probability,
however that this information will be
obtained from the White House The
President cannot decide the question
now and will not do so. All he can
say is that an early session may be
necessary, and that as the situation
looks to him now such a session is
more than possibility. Senator Haw-
ley says that members of Congress are
minute men" and should be ready at
any moment to respond to a summons.
The calling Of an early session of
Congress is almost certain, it was
hinted by a prominent official to-day,
II peace is finally arranged in the
philippines. The President said to one
of his callers to-day that he regarded
the insurrection in the Philippines as
drawing to a close. The establishment
Of peace in the Philippines will imme-
diately bring prominently forward the
future of the islands and if this is to
be settled by the next Congress or even
partially considered that Congress will
have to meet early. it is said

BISHOPS
BEING DEPOSED
Changes Made in West
Indies.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, May 6.-Spanish
Bishops are being deposed and it is
probable a call will soon be made for
Catholic priests who can speak Span
ish to volunteer to go on missions to
our new possessions in the West In
dies The first official changes made
there by the Popes delegate, Arch
bishop Chapelle of New Orleans, are
now announced. Bulls from Rome, in
dorsing his nominations for the sees
of Santiago and Porto Rico, are ex-
pected to arrive during the coming
week.
In pursuance of his commission as
apostolic delegate to Cuba, Porto Rico
and the Philippines, Archbishop Cha
pelle visited the islands in the West
Indies early in the year and made
thorough investigation of the affairs
of the church there. He found the see
of Porto Rico deserted by it's Bishop, a
Spaniard, who was appointed just be-
fore the war broke out, but who re-
fused to leave Spain and take UP his
duties on the island The Archbishop
recommended that he be deposed and
that Rev. James Blenk, c. NJ, pastor
of st. Mary's Church, New Orleans. be
made Bishop in his place. Cardinal
Rampolla has cabled that the Pope ap-
proves of this nomination.
In Santiago. the premier see of the
catholic church in the western world,
was found another Spaniard, Monsig-
nor Saenz, who was unwilling to re-
main under the jurisdiction of the
United States. His resignation was
forwarded to Rome, where it was at
once accepted. The Pope, at Arch
bishop Chapelle's suggestion, has ap-
pointed as his successor the very Rev.
Canon F. Barnada of Santiago Cathe-
dral chapter, acting as administrator of
the archdiocese. He is a native of San
tiago and esteemed as the most dis
tinguished of the native Cuban priests.
He speaks English fluently and is a
great admirer of our institutions.
AS soon as the bulls arrive from
Rome preparations will be made for the
conservation of both of these prelates
and their installation in their respec-
tive sees will soon be followed by the
advent of priests from here to help
them to put the Cuban church into
agreement with the conditions that
prevail in the church throughout this
rest of the United States.

DAMAGE
IN FRESNO COUNTY
Gloomy Reports From
Vineyards.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

FRESNO, May 6.-The vineyardists
Of Fresno County have been wearing
gloomy faces for the last week. because
of the damage done by the recent kill
ing frosts. The tender canes of the
vines have turned black. having been
bitten by Jack Frost, who made his
visit just when the most damage would
result. The injury was worse than ap-
peared at first sight, for after they had
been exposed to the sun for a few days
the new growth turned blacker and
blacker
A week ago Alexander Gordon of the
Farmers Club sent out circulars to the
leading vineyardists of the county ask
ing them to state the extent of the
damage done by the frost. Their an
swers were received to-day and COM
parison showed discouraging result.
Fully 33 per cent of the first crop has
been ruined and the damage may yet
prove to be even greater than this fig
ure indicates.
A peculiar thing about the frost is
that it seemed to come in currents.
Certain vineyards were damaged While
adjacent places escaped altogether or
were only slightly bitten.
f. NJ. Helm had just returned from
visit to his ranch and he was pretty
blue" He said he considered half of
his crop ruined, although he hoped
that the outcome would not be so bad
as at present indicated. The vineyard
of George I. Helm, adjacent, escaped
the ravages of the frost, only one cor
ner of about fifteen acres having suf-
fered at all. E. H. KoWasky's place
across the road, which is rented by
Chinese, is said to have been entirely
destroyed by the frost. The Pugh vine
yard suffered. The biting cold did great
damage to the Butler vineyard, the
young growth on the vines having been
burned and blackened. The Forsyth
place showed the ravages of the de-
vouring frost, while the Kennedy place
was damaged. The damage to wine
grapes was even worse than to the
raisin grapes it is said.
In the Scandinavian colony the wine
grapes were badly damaged Colonel
Trevelyan reports that fully a quarter
of the crop of the Barton estate was
destroyed by the frost.

LABOR SCORES A POINT.

LOS ANGELES, May 6.-Ever since the
street railway companies began to des-
ignate rolling stock as mail cars to car
ry mails by special arrangements with
the Postoffice Department, the innovation
has been looked upon with suspicion bv
the labor unions. Labor organizations
think the placing Of the words Tinted
States Mali upon cars is only subter-
fuge TO secure Federal protection against
strikers. This became so general that or
they considered a move against their in
terests, and a telegram sent TO President
Mckinley by street railway EMPLOYEES
brought orders from Washington to-dav
saying that Postmaster General Smith
rules that the words United States
Mall can be used only on ears that ac-
tually carry mails. An order to the Los
Angeles street-car companies to comnIv
Tas promulgated to-day.

GERMANS NOW
WANT DAMAGES
Urge War Claims Against
America.
Copyrighted, 1899. by the Associated Press.

Copyrighted, 1892 by the Associated Press.
BERLIN, May 6.-The belief has
taken complete possession of the public
mind in Germany that German inter
ests in Samoa have been brutally and
ruthlessly disregarded by both England
and the United States. It seems that
this view is steadily gaining strength
with nearly all classes. The press GER
tainly reflects the sentiment with in
creasing violence. The Government has
done nothing the past week either to
fortify or dispel this trend of public
opinion. The Government press has
been strangely silent upon the subject.
The Agrarian newspapers and many
other journals have seized the occasion
OF the birthday anniversary of the I'm
perial Minister for Foreign Affairs,
Baron Won Bulow, to severely attack
him for what they style his supreme
disregard of Germany's legitimate in
terests in Samoa and his alleged obse-
QuiOusness toward Great Britain and
the United States. The matter of
claims for damages. both in Samoa and
the Philippine Islands, for German
property destroyed in recent engage
ments has also been injected into the
press discussion with singularly grow
ing excitement, the assertion being
made that the United States meant to
disregard these Just claims" The I'm
perial Foreign Office, however, has done
nothing TO create or foster this Condi-
ton Of public feeling.
In the course of an interview with
the correspondent of the Associated
Press. United States Embassador An
drew D. White said: The question Of
German claims for damages for prop
erty destroyed in the Philippine ISL
ands or in Samoa in consequence of
the acts Of our naval or land forces
was never once mentioned during all
the conferences I have had with the
Imperial Minister for Foreign Affairs.

The Wheellngs lost the opening game
With the Mansfield team yesterday aft
erncon after the greatest struggle Of
the season. Thirteen innings we're re-
oulrcd to decide the winner, and both
teams put up n game that was full of
ginger from start to finish. Only two
errors were nude by the locals, and
Francis captured both. Both were cost
ly. The first occurred in the first In
ming On the first ball hit out by the
visitors, and resulted in n run. The
other came In the thirteenth and was
responsible for the only other and the
winning run scored by the visitors.
Wells and Miller were the opposing
pitchers. and each showed excellent
form. In the earlier innings Of the
game the locals were not able to do
much with the Manshelder. and in no
Inning did the visitors make more than
one hit off Wells. But for the errors of
Francis the score would have been l
to 0 In favor OF Wheeling not counting
decision by Umpire Colgan. which
many OF the spectators were of the
opinion robbed Mansfield Of run fairly
scored. stE
Mansfield scored the first Of the three
runs made In the entire thirteen innings
In the first. Flournoy was safe on
Francis error. and was advanced to
second on Ouinn's clever sacrifice.

pitch. Keenan, hit to Wells, who as
sisted TO kihm for an out, and kihm got
the ball over to Niles Just in Time to
ret!re Beecher at third, fast piece OF
fielding that was literally npplauded.
Wheeling tied the score In the fourth.
Niles worked base on balls, stole Sec
ond In fine style, went to third on
Ly.le's clean sacrifice down the first
base lina and scored the run on
Tack" Laimor's nice single to short
center.
Hits were scarce for several ensuing
innings, but In tho eighth the visitors
made things quite interesting. Miller
led on with twO-bagger to center field
fence, and was given third on wild
pitch by Wells. Flournoy was an out
to Niles. Quinn hit o grass-cutter to
Helne at deep second. and the throw to
Latmer at the plate was clean. and
