OUTSIDE RAIN OF FIRE.

Zone.

Village Of lie Carbet Not in the
Zone.
Fort de France, Island Of Martinique
May Is, via Paris.-As a result of the
measures taken by the authorities, &C
cess to St. Pierre is now easier. The
ruins OF the town have ceased smoking.
Two thousand corpses have been found
in carbonized condition. It is learned
that the rain Of fire ceased at a dis
lance of 200 yards from the village Of
lie Carbet.
Talk with survivors Of the disaster
confirms statements as to the awful
suddenness of the catastrophe. IL is
thought that an enormous quantity Of
gas was liberated. producing the at
mOspheric pressure which overwhelmed
everything before it. The gases alb
sorbed by the bodies of the victims
caused them to burst and the fire COM
ing afterward carbonized them. This
was followed by a rain Of stones, which
enveloped the town. but there was not.
as has been said, any flow of lava.
A gardener at the village Of MOrne
Rouge. seven kilometers distant from
st. Pierre, saw at the moment Of the
disaster seven luminous points on Mont
Pelee. He SAYS he had the impression
OF being violently drawn toward the
volcano by a powerful current Of air.
Then the mountain opened, according
to the description Of the gardener. and
sung tornadOes Of fire at st. Pierre.

Thieves Steal Several Gallons of
the Fluid For Sampling
Purposes.
(speclaI to - Herald.o

Evanston, WyO., May 13,-At a late
hour Sunday night unknown parties
made a raid on the enclosure around
the well of the Union Pacific Railroad
company at Spring Valley. wrenched
the cap of the casing and purloined
some fifty or sixty gallons of oil.
The object Of the raid was not to
steal the oil, but for the purpose of
ascertaining the quality and quantity
Of the product, and, incidentally, to Sc
cure evidence that the land is more
valuable for mineral than agricultural
purposes. for use in the contest case
filed against the company's claim.
The company has established a sort
of a dead line around the well since
the raid and il is understood that
guard has been placed on duty there to
protect the property.
Citizens Of Evanston. and more es-
pecially those interested in the local oil
fields, are in high feather as a result
Of the raid. Heretofore people have
been in doubt as to the character Of
the oil and quantity in the Union Pa
cifc well. u had been reported that
all signs of oil had disappeared but
the raiders found that the well not
only contained oil but that the product
was flowing over the casing in a steady
stream.
The discovery at the Union Pacific
we'll will have the effect of stimulating
interest in the local fields. and those
who have been skepticaI are now more
than satisfied. 1t win result in more
development, for operators are now
confident that the oil is there and all
that Is necessary is to sink the drills
and tap the oil basin.

AGAINST THE LEASING LAW.
Commissioner Hermann Is Preparing
an Adverse Report.
Especial to The Herald)

Washington, May 13.-Land Commits
sioner Hermann is preparing an ad-
verse report on the bill recently referred
TO the interior department permit
ting the leasing Of vacant public lands
IN Nebraska for grazing purposes. He
holds the bill is open to the same OBJ
jections raised by him against the Mil
lard and B0wersock bin. He further
contends that the enactment Of a leas-
ing law for Nebraska, or any other
state, would be regarded as discrimi-
nation against the stock-owners in
other states, and will eventually lead
to a general leasing law.
Commissioner Hermann is opposed to
any leasing law whatever. and he will
report adversely on the Lacey bill in
troduced recently. and which is to be
considered By the house public lands
committee tomorrow. Hermann saws
there is no demand for a leasing law.
save from few cattle barons. that
homesteaders do not want such a law.
Small stOck-owners do not want It. and
the present conditions are satisfactory
to all except monoDOlistic owners.
Advocates Of leasing legisla ton say
that Commissioner Hermann's seal
against leasing is actuated by per-
sonal interest, in that leasing legisla-
ton is not popular in his own state.
where an election is pending. He is a
candidate for United States senator.

nearly 400. 900 acres ceded 90 the gov
eminent by the Shoshone and Bannock
Indians.
Senator Dubois stated today that 1t
has been ascertained that the delay in
opening the Fort Han reservation has
been caused by representations made
to the interior department by National
Committeeman Standrod that the lands
within five miles Of Pocatello con-
tanned valuable minerals and should
not be opened "a public entry. SEN
ators Dubois and Heitfeld entered Wig
orous protests and asserted positively
that the lands in question do not con-
tain mineral. on the strength of this
representation tie department went on
with the plan OF opening
Senator Dubois says 1t Is unfortunate
that the law governing the opening
does not provide for the protection Of
the rights OF those who have been live
ing on reservation for many years. He
advocates the creation Of public SEN
timent for the protection of these set
tiers so that they may be allowed to
retain their holdings unmolested.

Victims Of the Psbug Disaster Include at Least One Person
From Almost Every House in the Vicinity of the Yards
Officials Fear Another Explosion

two public school buildings today were
almost deserted.
The officials of the PAN handle road
fear a worse explosion than the three
which wrought so much damage yes
terday. A danger line has been made
500 yards on all side of the burning
wreckage and the railroad police are
keeping the curious crowd back.
A few feet below the burning wreck
age lies the big thirty-six-i main Of
the Philadelphia company. which comes
from the gas fields in the southwest
ern portion Of the state, and which
supplies the McKee's rocks and lower
Allegheny districts with natural gas.
It is feared that the conclusion was so
great yesterday that some OF the
joints or even the pipe itself might
have been damaged aRe II ssuch is the
case the gas. which is under great
pressure. win soon force its way
through and another terrific explosion
viii follow.
About twenty cars are piled up be-
tween the Sheraden station and Gork's
Run in the Sheraden yards. This is
still a mass Of fame. In this there are
all kinds of merchandise. Little head
way is being made TO extinguish the
fire owing to the fact that the entire
wreckage is saturated with naphtha
and kerosene. and every now and then
a fresh volume Of fame shoots out
from the smouldering ruins.

clouded tonight.
The apparent overwhelming senti-
ment for strike which was in evil

President Mitchell and his fellow Off
Gals still maintain their silence and
every attempt that has been made to
get their opinion of the situation has
proved futile. The indications, how
ever, are that the delegates favoring a
strike are in a majority and will win
their fight in the convention 1t is
believed that the pro-strike delegates

auction and viii not be opened up
