LAST NIGHTS STORM.
Slight Damage Done by Lightning
 Savin Rock Flooded.

The storm that broke over New Ha- ven about o'clock last night was the fiercest of the year, and at the west shore some of the hotel keepers said that it was as wicked a combination of the elements as they have ever seen. It Irained hard and the wind blew at the rate of forty miles an houiafor several minutes, and. together with the fierce lightning and thunder, the effect was worth seeing. Beach street, Grove street and some of the side sreets at Savin Rock were under water after the storm, and as a consequence the great crowd that flocked there to see the fire works deserted the place in an amaz- ingly short time.
 On the other side of the harbor, at Lighthouse Point, the electrical end of the storm seemed to have more effect than at any other place about here Hundreds of people were stalled at the Point on account of the cars being dis abled, three being helpless between the Pequot club house and Lighthouse Point The electricity from the storm caused their fuses to burn out, and 1t be run through Another car at the Yale field was afflicted in the same manner.
 The house of John w. Kenney, the builder at No. 19 Park street, was struck by lightning and damage to the amount of $50 was done. The lightning shattered the rear of MT. &enney's house.

ening in charge of Pirate Blake, who will have charge of the crews in the ab- sence of MT. Bancroft. The crew did not go on the river.
 D. C. Storfow, 'S9, former head coach assisted MT. Higginson to-day in coach- ing the crews The four oar was the first to go out this afternoon They went over the two mile course, and al- though there was strong head wind and rough water, the coaches do not feel satisfied with the showing made. The unofficial time for the two miles was about 1925. Otis returned to the boat to-day Ivy being i'll with typhoid malaria. Derby rowed at two. The crew as a whole was awkward and slow.
 The varsity eight, coached by MT. Higginson and MT. Storrow, rowed two stretches of a half mile each for time. They rowed down stream from the start for half mile and returned. The time was about 2:40 in each case, con- sidered by the coaches to be much too slow. The weather conditions during the trials were poor.

NATIONAL NATAL RESERVE.
What Shall Constitute 1t Discussed b,
 Naval Militia Association.

Baltimore, June 1S.-What shall con-
 stitute the proposed national naval re- | serve in this country was the theme of discussion at the opening days session of the annual convention of the Naval Militia association. Assistant Secretary of the Navy Darling and Captain Swift, of the general navy board made it plain in their addresses on the subject that the navy department is anxious for the cooperation of the naval militia or ganizations in the various states. They did not, however, offer any solution to the vexed question as to how the pro- posed naval reserve should be consti- tuted.
 In the many addresses on the subject it was made plain that a national naval reserve is of the utmost importance in furnishing the great increase in trained men needed in the navy during war times. It was also argued that the off, cers of the state naval militia should be given the same rank in the national reserve. Among those in attendance are:
 Massachusetts-Capt G. R. Buff fington and Lieutenant-C Commander Edgar; Connecticut, Captain Frederick L. Averill; Rhode Island, Captain Gard ner Simms; Maine, Lieutenant H. w. Bigelow.

SHIP TRUST ALARMS FRENCH
i GRAVE SITUATION CREATED
 BY THE COMBINE.
Statements by Members of the Two tion Not nn Utopian Dream but an Capital, Directed by Men of Strength aud Integrity.
aud Integrity.

l Paris, June 13.-The request made by M. Etienne, vice president of the Cham Der of Deputies. for permission to inter- pellate M. Trouillot, the minister of commerce, on the grave consequences which may threaten French shipping as a result of the formation of the Ameri can shipping combination, and to which interpolation M, Trouillot has promised to reply in two weeks, after he has in- vestigated the situation, has aroused considerable interest here. The secre- tary of the Compagnie Generale Trans Atlantique, in an interview on the shipping situation, spoke as follows:
 T agree with M. Etienne that the situation for the French steamship lines which has been created by the forma- tion of the Atlantic combine is most grave. Up to the present time our com pany has been left aside, and, more- over the French government would never authorize our entrance into he new combination. I think, however, the government should intervene to protect us, because the Atlantic shipping com bination is not Utopian dream, but an enterprise disposing of immense cap-
  strength and integrity"
 M Lecas, a director of the Messa- geries Maritimes, one of the leading French lines of steamers which operate vessels to South Africa and China has also been interviewed on this subject, and saysA
 If the operations of the shipping combine between the United States and Europe prove successful it must be fireseen that the combine will endeavor to monopolize South American trans portation, and there is every reason to believe that efforts in this direction will meet with success. The effect of the combine will probably be more or less disastrous to French shipping, accord ing to the rigor with which the work of the combine is prosecuted, but in any case it constitutes an immediate danger to which the French government cannot l remain indifferent"

ASCENT OF SOUFRIERE RE
New Lake Formed at the Bottom of
 the Mountain.

| Kingstown, St. Vincent, Wednesday,
 June 11.-Fleet Surgeon Isaac H. An lderson of the British navy and the scientific commission appointed by the Royal society to investigate the volcan- ic disturbances here arrived at Kings town yesterday and left to-day for Chateau Belair, with the intention of ascending the Soufriere volcano when
 possible. Considerable interest is felt in the work of the commission. The general feeling of anxiety here has not abated. There has been no big
 eruption since May 30, but the appear ance of the volcano Is not reassuring. There are frequent emissions of black steam.
 The American scientists, Professor Hovey of the American Museum of Natural History, New York, and George c. Curtis of Harvard, made another as- cent of the Soufriere from the east Monday They heard the rumblings of boiling water in the old crater when half a mile off, waited until the fog cleared and found the southeast crater quiescent. The old ridge that used to run from the Saddle to the bottom of the crater remains. There is no water in this crater. They did not venture to approach the old crater.
 Professor Hovey says that apparent ly the crater of the 1872 eruption took no part in the recent outbreak and so far as he and MT. Curtis could see no streams of molten rock, like those which issue from Mount Vesuvius, have flowed only superanuated steam, old lava ashes, etc., having been thrown out
 A lake has formed at the base of the mountain. Its banks are volcanic mat ter which fell during the eruptions Thick clouds of steam arise from this lake at close intervals The Assures in other parts of Waallibu are still smok- ing.
 The relief works are progressing. The is now sheltering and feed ing 1000 persons. The United States collier Leonidas has arrived here and is relief lumber.
 A large number of natives are now and trade is brightening gen. erally.
 Vessels arriving here report fall of dust at great distance out at sea. The bark Jupiter, from Cape Town, met dust on the morning of May s when 930 miles south-southeast of St, Vincent.

QUlEgER IN NANTUCKET.
ACTION WHICH MAY END REIGN
 OF L4WLESSNESS.
Deputy Sheriffs, Who Served No Good Purpose and Only Incited Crowds to Acts of Violence, Removed from the Withdrnwal-Retire of Troops May Begin TO-day.

Pawtucket, R. l., June 13.-Action
 which the authorities hope means the beginning of the end of the reign of | lawlessness incident to the street rail- way strike was taken to-day by High
 Sheriff Hunter c. White removing his | deputy sheriffs from the street cars.
 He did this on representations made to
 him that the deputies accomplished no good purpose but melted the crowds to
 acts of violence.
 | After the withdrawal of these men l the city became quiet The 1,500 troops
 ordered out by Governor Kimball yes- terday are still on duty but if condi-
 tions warrant they will be withdrawn gradually, the first installment to leave tomorrow. There was no rioting dur ing the day. Seven men were arrested for misdemeanors committed on Paw
 tucket avenue, the route of cars from Providence to this city None of the lines of the Pawtucket city system of
 the United Traction company were in operation and the lines in Central Falls,
 Cumberland and Albion, suburban towns, were tied up. Tomorrow it is proposed to reopen the city system un- der the protection of the police, assisted by the militia.
 When the first car of the Pawtucket Avenue line reached the city to-day it was hanked and guarded by companies of militia and troops of cavalry with machine guns trailing along. The car was escorted safely past the point @l, or made. The crowd was kept on the move and as soon as there was a sign of demonstration, arrests were made, the prisoners being locked up at the state armory. They will be turned over to the police. After that cars on the avenue were operated without further hindrance.
 Mayor Fitzgerald was active all day holding conferences. He saw Governor Kimball at the state house in Provi- dence and High Sheriff White was there. The mayor asked that the depu- ty sheriffs and troops be withdrawn. Governor Kimball told him that the deputies had been withdrawn but that he could not send home the troops un- til the Pawtucket police showed some evidence of being able to preserve or Ger.
 MT. Fitzgerald then asked that the militia be withdrawn temporarily, on the mayors promise of reinforcing the police with suitable men.
 The governor directed HigS Sheriff White to confer with General Tanner. This was done and at its conclusion 1t was announced that no more deputy sheriffs would serve, and the militia would be dismissed if the police show ed themselves able to control the situ- alton.
 Mayor Fitzgerald assured the officials that he would allow no more mob vio- lence.
 The mayor then conferred with Chief of Police Rice, who was civil war of- ficer, and it was decided to engage suit able special officers as rapidly as pos sible and use every effort to suppress violence.
 It now devolves on Mayor Fitzgerald and the police to maintain order and if this plan is successful the troops will be sent home.

STRIKERS RANKS SWELLED
MORE FIRE BOSSES JOIN THE
 COAL MINERS.
Result of the Meeting Yesterday After noon-Campaign Against Engineers, Bremen and Pumpmen Nearly Over Most of Thes Men Being Out-Method Of Boycotting s'Unfairo Workers.


 Wilkesbarre, Pa, June 13.--The work of the strikers in attempting to bring out all men who are still in the employ | of the coal companies goes steadily on. Their campaign against the engineers, firemen and pumpmen is nearly over,
 most of these men being out, and the | union is now paying more attention to the fire bosses, clerks and others who have taken the places of those who quit. Quite a number of the fire bosses
 have already stopped work because they had been asked to take the strik- CTS places, and at a meeting held here this afternoon about dozen more con- sented to join the strikers.
 The company officials are aware of the attack upon the fire bosses, and they are making every effort to hold them.
 The miners union is now planning to expel from the organizatio all engi- neers, firemen and pumpmen who do mot obey the strike order by tomorrow night.
 The rank and file of the strikers open ly admit that they try to boycott all men whom they look upon as being unfair" workers. Tradesmen are in- duced not to supply food to the families of those men, and they are also subject ed to other annoyances.
 Reading, Pa, June 13-Another car load of workmen went through here for the coal regions to-day. Thus far, it is said, the Philadelphia and Reading company has secured more than one thousand men, mostly firemen. engi- neers and pumpmen. It was stated by an official that there is not a colliery in the Reading company's territory where the pumps are not being manned to-day where desired.
 Washington, June 13.-George w. Perkins, one of the active members of the firm of J. P. Morgan & Co.,, was among the callers at the White house tonight and immediately after his visit took the train for New York. He was at the White house about an hour His presence in the city was not known until late tonight, as MT. Perkins did not register at any of the hotels and it could not thus be learned what his mis- sion to Washington was. It was said in sources that could be well informed on the subject, however, that it was not in connection with the coal strike, though that matter might have been during his talk with the president.
 Bluefield. W. Va, June 13-In the Flat Top region the striking miners are steadily losing ground, and the opera tors predict that within a week the strike will be a thing of the past. A large percentage of the men returned to work to-day, and the loading through out the field was almost double that of yesterday. In the Tug River district it is different. But little coal was deliv- cred there to-day.
