Conclusions as to Mont PeIee.

Fort De France, Island of Martin
ique, June 5.-Prof. Angelo Heilprin,
has reached the following conclu-
sions:
The location Of the new crater has
been accurately determined; 1t is
positively known that there has been
no overflow Of molten matter from
the lip of the crater; there has been
no subsistence of the mountain, and
the height Of Mont Pelee is un.
changed; the crater does not contain
q cinder cone; there has been no
cataclysm and no typographical alter
alton Of the country. The period OF
violent eruptions has probably ended.
although the volcano may continue
to be quietly active for q long time
% come.

Pittsburg, June Litigation over

amounting to $3S3.000, were taken
up yesterday in orphans court before
Judge ]. w. Over. The claim Of DR..
Walter G. Browning, of Philadelphia,
for $190,070, was thought to be the

sprung when attorneys for DR.. Brown
ing stated that he would ask for $3.50,
900 as being due him for medical
treatment rendered to Mr.. Magee
and for stock speculations alleged to

Panama Canal Route.

Washington, June AFTER trans.
acting some routine business yeSter'
day the senate resumed consideration
of the isthmian canal bill, Mr.. Hanna,
of Ohio, continuing his argument il
support of the Panama canal. The
Ohio senator declared that no politi
cal considerations were involved in
the canal problem. He presented the
opinions Of SO ship masters and pilots
in favor of the Panama route, as
against the Nicaragua route, for man:
reasons which they cited.
He urged that the construction OF
the Nicaragua canal was beSet with
unknown difficulties, while the con
struction Of the Panama canal was
IAN open door," He laid particular
stress on the danger to the Nicara
qua route from VOLCANOES, and urged
that it was not good business policy
to ignore those dangers in projec
involving an expenditure of 100000,
600. In conclusion Mr.. Hanna ap
pealed to the senate to consider the
matter as business proposition, and
with some feeling, repudiated the sug
gestion that those favoring th'

It is manifest that under these con-
ditions it is for the interest Of the
church, as well as Of the state, that
the landed proprietorship of the re-
Hgious orders in the Philippine
islands should cease, and that If the
church wishes, as OF course it does
wish, to continue its ministration
among the people Of the islands and
to conduct in it's own behalf a sys-
tenn Of instruction with which we
have no desire to interfere, 1t should
seek other agents therefor.
Fourth-It is the wish Of our gov
eminent, in case congress shall grant
authority, that the titles Of the re-
ligious orders to the large tracts OF
agricultural lands which they now
hold shall be, extinguished, but that
full and fair compensation shall be
made therefor.
Fifth-Tt IN not however, deemed
20 be for the interests Of the people
Of the Philippine islands that In thus
transforming wholly unproductive
tracts of land into money capable OF
productive investment, a fund should
thereby be created to be used for the
attempted restoration Of the frtars
to the parishes from which they are
now separated, with the consequent
disturbance of law and order.
Should Be Settled Fairly.
Sixth-The titles to the great
amount of church lands and building:
in the islands other than those OF the
religious orders and now apparently
owned by the state should be settlet
fairly.
eyenth-Provision should be made
for ascertaining what rentals, II any
ought to be paid for converts an(
other church buildings which have
been occupied by United States
troops during the insurrection, thi'
being of course subject to furthe
specific action by congress.
Eighth-The rights and obligation
remaining under the various specific
trusts for education and charity
which are now in doubt and contrc
versy, ought to be settled by agree
ment, if possible, rather than by tn
| slow and frequently disastrous pre-
| cesses of litigation, SO that the benz
| ficient purposes Of these foundation
| may not fail.
