quite active in fighting the measure.

Port Guanta, March 13. Six custom

The hay in the barn was very dry and

The persons in the house soon dis
covered the flames and rushed out and
made an effort to save some of the
stock. The horses had been forced from
the barn after much effort by Mrs.
Dunn's 17-year-old son. John, and he
had re-entered the building in an effort
to save some of the other stock. which
was housed in the building, when he
was surrounded by flames and called
for help. His mother and brother made
a noble effort to rescue him from the
furnace of fire that was raging within,
but failed of their purpose after they
had both been badly tho not fatally
burned The body of the unfortunate
young man was not rescued till day
light the next morning and was found
to have been almost entirely consumed
by the fire.

Washington, March 17.-The senate
committee on foreign relations mas ue-
cided again to take up the RECIPROCITY
treaties which are before the senate
with a view to securing such amend
ments to them as will insure their rat

tention on the part of the members
of the house that because these treat

be passed upon by the house as well
as by the senate. The senate commit

posed to concede this point, but be-
cause the Dingley bill authorizing

It has done in adopting the report pre-
pared by it's subcommittee, of which
Senator Spooner is chairman. This
report recommends that each of the
reciprocity conventions be amended so
as to provide that it shall take effect

mittee has acted upon this expression
in a general way, but SO far has made
no effort to attach an amendment to
any of the pending treaties. 1t is un-

direction and it is probable the ques-

who is in charge of the measure said
the impression existed that the bill car
ried something over s60,000000 for the
ensuing fiscal year, whereas it carried
but $24,000,000 of actual appropriations,
the remaining s36,000OOO being simply
authorized to be appropriated under
the contract system. There was also a
mistaken idea that the pending meas
ure carried larger appropriations than
any previous bill. Burton said that the
appropriations for the river and harbor
work instead of increasing with other
governmental expenditures, as was
popularity supposed, We're in reality de-
creasing. He also denounced the popu-
lar idea that unworthy projects for i'm
provement of bays and creeks absorbed
the large proportion of the appropria-
tions in the bill. Great projects in which
