Following close upon the Martinique
disaster comes the startling news of
worse horror of a similar character
IN Guatemala. The volcano Santa
Maria broke out in violent eruption
On October 2t5h, destroying the town
If Santa Maria, with its population of
10000, and devastating the surround
ing country. An area of thirty miles
was buried to depth of from one to
seven feet of lava and ashes, and it is
estimated that 10000 people perished
A number of villages were wiped out
Of existence, and many of the coffee
plantatios we're ruined. At last &C
couts Santa Maria was still in erup-
lion, and the Inhabitants were fleeing
N every direction.

THE PENNSYLVANIA
 MAKES A RAISE
Voluntary Twelve and a Half Increase
 of Wages.

Philadelphia. November 13.-The Pennsylvania railroad company today announced an increase of ten per cent in the wages of all employees oi the company east of Pittsburg and Erie now earning less than $200 a month
 The advance became operative on No vember 1. This advance, which was decided upon al yesterdays meeting of the board of directors of the Pennsyl- vania Railroad company, will. it is es- timated, affect about 59. GOO employees.
 The various division superintendents
 were notified of the directors action. and notices announcing the advance
 were immediately posted. The cost of i the increase to the company will be heavy Estimating the average wage rate per month at $50 per man, the ad- ditional expense to the company would be about s4. .25O,OOO year
 First Vice President Pugh, of the Pennsylvania railroad, speaking of the increase in wages, said the advance
 was due to the increased business of the company, and also to the fact that living is at present more expensive than heretofore. He also said that many employees of the company had
 not had their wages adjusted for some time. and as they had worked faith fully for the interests of the company. it was considered only just that they should receive some substantial recog- milton of their services.

DEAD AND MANNED
 BY AN EXPLOSION
Nine Puddle Furnaces in the
 Vicinity Were Wrecked
Four Men Killed and Many Scalded, Their Eyes Blown Gut, Their Hands Blown Off The Death List Will Be Longer.

Lebanon, Pa, November 13.-The ex- plosion of a large boiler in a scrap puddle furnace. No. 3, at the West works of the American Iron and Steel Manufacturing company's plant today caused the death of four workmen and about forty others were more or less seriously injured.
 The dead
 JACOB BRICKER, aged 67, a labor CT: leaves a wife and six children.
 WALTER TURNER, d puddler, leaves wife and one child.
 JAMES PASSENGER, a puddler, leaves a wife and four children.
 WILLIAM CAKES, aged A, puddler, leaves widow
 The boiler exploded without warn isg, and in an instant the entire place was black with debris. The wreck and ruin of the nine immediate puddle fur naces were complete.
 Physicians were called from every quarter of the city and hospital ambu- lances and other vehicles were hurried into service. The offices of the works were at once converted into a hospital and a corps of nurses from the Good eSamaritan hospital was brought to the place. Into this temporary hospital the maimed and scalded workmen were carried and given attention. Some have their eyes burned out, others their hands blown off. It is impossible to learn the names of the injured. Many it is believed cannot live through the night.
 It is feared that the list of dead will be materially increased when the ruins of the nine wrecked puddle furnaces are explored. The exploded boiler was hurled high into the air and passed over the offices, burying itself in the south banks of Quittapahilla creek, several hundred yards away.

THE START.

Smedes, Miss. November 13.-Presi- dent Roosevelt and his party arrived here shortly before 4 o'clock this after noon, and in their hunting togs started soon afterward for the camp on the Little Sunfiower river As the distance is a good fifteen miles and the trail is rough and bad in places, the chances are that it was after dark before they reached the camp.
 Smcdes is simply a siding on the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley railway, where cotton is loaded from the big Smede plantation. A plantation store and the residence of one of the mana gers are the only structures except negro cabins. Work on the neighbor- ing plantations was suspended this afternoon, and severa! hundred negroes were at the siding when the train stopped Most of the men sat on cot ton bales, but the black mamnies and the pickanninies stood along the track. They showed their white teeth in hare grins. but made no other demOnstra- ton as the president stepped from the train. He was clad in hunting cos tune, khaki riding trousers, heavy leather leggins, blue flannel shirt and corduroy coat, and wore a brown slouch hat. Around his waist was buckled his cartridge belt and at his side hung his ivory handled hunting knife.
 The other members of the party also wore hunting suits. While the guns, ammunition, blankets and other small baggage were being loaded into four mule wagon, the president chatted with the manager of the Smede estate and two ladies, who were great admirers of him and who had come especially % greet him.
 When all the party was in readiness the members of the party, except MT Fish and Mr. Dickinson, mounted small, wiry, tough looking horses and dashed away for the woods at breakneck canter. The presidents mount was black horse. He did not look spirited, but it was explained that he was just the sort of animal needed to force Il way through the underbrush, and fol- lowed the others in blackboard drawn by two mules.
 Two disappointments met the presi- dent here. The first one was that MT Mangum. who had much to do with arranging the hunt, was too i'll to pro- ceed to camp tonight. and the other was the story which came back from camp that in trying a pack of hounds today half of the dogs had gone off after a deer which was jumped, while
Arizona republican., 1902-11-14

Hoke Collier was on the track of a bear. As there are only twenty-two dogs in the pack the split is very disquieting NIr. Mangum as soon as he heard of this accident put himself in communi- cation with BobO, d famous bear hunt er who has d fine pack of forty-five dogs on a place about one hundred miles north of here, at Bobo station.
 If this pack can be secured there will be great sufficiency of dogs. IE place of MT. Mangum it has been ar ranged that Hugh Foote and Hoke Col Her will hunt with the president. They will start out at daylight tomorrow morning. Paths have been cut through the underbrush, to be used as cut offs to the river crossing, and on these sta tions the members of the party except the president will be stationed. The president and his guides will follow the hounds through the undergrowth in order to be at hand if a bear is brought to bay
 Tt will be powerful hard" said MT Mangum, and I predict the president will lose at least five pounds in the next five days. I rode through there a few days ago, nd when l got out my clothes were almost torn off of me. l locked as if I had been in a railroad wreck"
 Mir Mangum says the black bears he-eatouts weigh from 800 to eco pounds.
 We hve a set Of scales at the camp !" said he, and the beasts will be weighed when they are brought in"
 The signs of bear in the vicinity of the camp are plentiful, and Mr Parker promises the president a shot before tomorrow evening. In one waterhole Hoke Collier on Monday found the fC0t- prints of nine.
 The presidents train is on the side track here, and telegraph station has been riSged up in a box car on the siding. The arrangements made here to prevent a crowd of curious people from spelling the presidents fun will be strictly carried cut.
 The people o; Vicksburg wanted to run an excursion up here this afternoon to enable them to see the president start on his hunt. but President Fish of the Illinois Central would not per nit it.

Parker has charge of the preparation for the hunt, and the president appears great Iy pleased with the arrangements.
 The camp is located fifteen miles west of Smedes, on the banks of Little Sunhower river, in practically an un- broken wilderness. There are no set tiers for miles in any direction. There is an oak, ash and cypress forest choked with undergrowth budvine. A trail has been cut and camp horses have been provided for the party. The camp it. self consists of three sleeping tents and one cook tent.

New Orleans, November 13.-Presi- dent Samuel Gompers at the opening of the American Federation of Labor today delivered an impassiOned warn ing to the members of the 0rganiZat ton that the immediate future of trade and labor assemblies was seriously cndan- gercd by the conflicting claims of the jurisdiction made by different bodies. Unless such things are fixed in calm ness and handled with moderation, he declared. the labor organizations CT the country would soon be involved in a conflict which would, by comparison, dwarf all the struggles in which labor organizations have so far been en- gagged. The matter would, unless checked he asserted. come to a point where laboring men would fight with laboring men from behind barricades, in the manner in which men deal with their. mortal foes' His warnings O.. danger and his counsels of peace and moderation met with a hearty response from the assembled delegates, and wild applause greeted the speaker as he closed that portion of his annual ad- dress in which he pointed out the perils which in his opinion would surely come unless methods are altered, and altered soon.
 The first day of the convention, aside from the address of President Gompers, was not of great interest to outsiders, and many delegates found it fatiguinS. The morning session was occupied with addresses of welcome and responses. and the report of the committee on ere dentials.
 The afternoon was consumed in the address of President GOmpers. which occupied two hours and twenty min utes O, rapid reading.
 The words Of praise accorded by the speaker to President Mitchell of the Mine workers union were greeted with great applause.
