DIAMOND TRADE CRISIS.
Merchants Said to Have Skipped With
Stocks of Gems.

Brussels, March Numerous and
contradictory reports are current here
as to the crisis in the diamond trade,
and the newspapers refer to impenG-
ing failures of several firms in the
diamond business at Antwerp,
Amsterdam and London. They al
lege that some diamond merchants
have been guilty of extensive defalca-
lions and have fled to London and
New York. The crisis is said to be
due to the large quantity of goods on
warrant which can only be disposed
of at a loss. The Messenger dc Brus-
sells says that the eXtradition of two
men who have fled to New York with
100000 francs worth of diamonds has
been demanded. kilograms received
here tonight from Antwerp says the
diamond market is calmer as a result
of the proposals Of three diamond
merchants to effect arrangements
with their creditors.

TWO MEASURES FOR HER BET
TERMENT PASS SENATE.
TO Open The RESERVATION
Bill Appropriates $1,15O,o00 to Carry
Out Agreements. of Treaty-Great
Falls a Port of Entry.

Washington, March 4.-The ship
subsidy bill was further discussed in
the senate today by Frye, his re-
marks were directed principally to
republican senator's, and he gave
further expression to his views that
the subsidy bill was a logical response
to the demands and principles of the
republican party and that in it's prep
aration he had obviated objections en-
%tertained by senators otherwise friend
ly to the measure.
No other senator desiring to speak
today, the bill was laid aside and a
number of other bills were passed,
among them one appropriating ST.
10000 to carry out the agreement
with the Grow Indians of Montana and
another making Great Falls, Mon
tana, the port %of~entry for the eastern
district.
Washington, March Sit appears
likely now that the senate will reach a
vote on the pending shipping bill one
week from next Monday. When Frye,
In charge Of the measure, endeavored
today to secure an agreement for a
time of taking the vote, that late was
mentioned as being satisfactory to
the minority members of the COM
merce committee.
Clay of Georgia addressed the SEN
ae in opposition to the bill and had
not concluded when the senate adj
journed. He made a forceful and in
teresting argument. which was given
careful attention by his colleagues.
Early in the session the senate passed
the legislative. executive and judicial
appropriation bill, the second of the
big supply measures to be acted on
at this session. n
