RIVER OF MUD
Thirty Houses at Basse Pointe Carried
Out to Sea.
iBy Associated Press J


(By Associated Press)
FORT DE FRANCE, ISALND OF
MARTINIQUE, June 19-The river which
flows by tBasse Pointe has risen sudden
ly four times since yesterday, and as a
result thirty houses at Basse Pointe have
been carried out to sea.
The first flood was signalized by the
appearance in the valley Of the river,
of muddy water forty metres wide and
five metres high, which advanced with
frightful rapidity. The first houses that
were struck by the rush of waters were
shattered and thrown into the air, and
their ruins were carried out to sea on
the crest of the torrent.
During all of yesterday afternoon, thick
clouds Of smoke issued from the crater
at the head of the river Fallaise, ana the
river itself has been rushing downward
with such violence that it's banks have
been carried away, and the old river bed
has disa ppeared.
The river has now taken a new course.
A bridge over the F'allaise has been car
ried away One of the chasms result
ing from the volcanic eruptions which
rendered access to the head of the river
impossible is now filled up with vol
canic matter, which has solidihed, and
the chasm on, the newly thrown out ma
terial.
Mont Pelee continues to vomit a thick
column Of cinders, which the wind blows
to the North.
The village of LIE Precheur has been
invaded by stream Of mud.

MINORITY REPORT FILED
Negro Race Must be Left to Work Out
Its Own Destiny.
Especial Dispatch to The Times,


WASHINGTON D. c., June 19.-Repre-
sentative Flood submitted to thu House
to-day his minority report on the Irwin
bill to create a commission to examine
into the Individual condition Of the col
ored people Of the United States. It was
signed by all the Democrats on the Com
mittee on Labor. which reported the bill
favorably some time ago.
1t is more than probable that this re-
port, together with the feeling about the
negroes created by the trip to Alabama
taken by several Republican members at
the invitation OF Representative Thomp-
son, Of Alabama, will prevent any action
upon this matter at this session of Con-
Fgress. The minority say that there does
not seem to be the slightest necessity for
the creation Of this commission nor for
considering the status of the negro race
apart from other races.
THE negro race can never reach It's
full Development" says the report, ''un-
: til it is permitted by the Government to
work out its destiny. as do the other

lieved.

ter Brooks he deserved his fate
The police are not inclined to believe
Miss Hollands statement.
What Miss Crawford says Miss I:cl-
land Gold her Of the Burns-Brooks case
the police believe to he very important.
1t will they say, strengthen their. theory
that Spyers might have been murdered.
AS it is generally known ti:al H,ooks
deserted Miss Burns for aa1rnar girl.
and might have been killed at the for
mer's hands, the police are working on
the theory that a similar motive vas
attached to the Spyers case.
Investigation in the Spyers case here
yesterday developed no fact which can
be said to have any immediate connec-
ton or bearing upon the cause Of his
tragic death in New York.
Facts were brought out however, which
would indicate that Spyers while here
was operating with T. l. Altman as an
organizer of the beneficial society known
as the knights of the Golden Horseshoe
That Altman. who formerly stopped at
No. 121e East Broad Street. has left the
city, and the local detectives who haye
been on the lookout for him for several
weeks, is another phase Of the case which
is not clearly understood. He was in
innate with Spyers while here, and is
said to be familiar with the story OF
Spyers infatuation for Miss Holland.
If there has been murder. as suspicion
rests upon Miss Holland, there is no
clue to motive brought out here. un-
less cause for jealousy can bee seen in
the contents of note found in her
room at Murphy's soon after her de-
parture.
Among the facts brought out by fur
Their inquiry into the movements Of the
couple while in Richmond was the fact
that while in the city Miss Holland had
a picture taken. proof Of which was
seen at the hotel. During their STAY here.
it is said she remained, when not out
with Spyers, closely in her room and
did not make the acquaintance OF other
men. According to attaches Of the hotel,
Spyers was Jealous Of his blonde sweet
heart, and on one occasion when she
showed him note from a Richmond man
aslxiafs that he be allowed the honor Of
her acquaintance, he is said to have
made things little unpleasant for Miss
Holland by leaving the hotel abruptly.
