A STREAM OF FIRE.
Hts Source Ii the Soufriere Volcano ON
ST. Vincent Island The Top OF the
Mountain Has Been Blown or

Kingstown, Island of st. Vincent,
Sept. 9.-The sights in the Windward
district of this island resulting from
the eruption of the Soufriere volcano
September 3 are very interesting. The
kabacca river even now is stream
of fire a quarter of mile or more
wide. The greatest part of the Rn-
bacca estate is wrapped in vapor and
there are mimic eruptions every
where. The river bed is continuous
ly throwing up columns and dense
clouds of steam, mud and pebbles
The land has spread farther seaward
and is changing considerably the ap-
pearance of the district from what it
was prior to September 3. This was
probably caused by the ejecta that
flowed down the slope filling the sea
about the coast.
The port officer of Chateau Belair,
who saw Soufriere from the sea, made
the following report:
"The mountain is considerably low
er than before September 3 and the
appearance of che summit has
changed. A large proportion has evi-
IDENTIFY been blown off and the hill has
a much more jagged contour. The
neighborhood is altered. New ridges,
valleys and a strange rayine have
been cut in the west side of the vol
cano, down to what was formerly the
Carib settlement of Maracai, where
liquid matter was seen flowing during
the afternoon of September 3. The
northwestern estates, Petit Bordene
and Sharpe's, are covered with from
10 to 20 inches of gritty substance.
The crops of arrowroot and cocoa are
ruined"
During the night of September 4
there was terrific storm, accompan-
led by binding lightning and terri
BILE peals of thunder and a moaning
sound from the agitated crater.

BREAKS ALL RECORDS.
Amount of Gold In United states
Treasury Larger Than Ever Be-
for In History of the Country.

Washington, Sept. 9.-The sum Of
gold now in the United States treasury
exceeds that of any previous time in the
history of the country and with one
possible exception, it exceeds that of
any country at any time in the history
of the world. The single reported ex-
ception is that of Russia about eight
years ago, when that country was pre-
pairing to resume gold payments. At
that time Russia is said to have had
in it's treasury $5os,0Oo,oo0 in gold.
Last Saturday the vaults of the Unit
ed States treasury contained $573, 1885,
1874, an increase since July 1, 1901, of
$79.os7,s97. This stock of gold is now
being added to at the rate of 100000
to 100000 a day, with no immediate
prospect of a cessation in the rate of
deposits.

st. Paul, Mimi, Sept. s.-A special
from Aurora, S. D., says: Two little
girls were burned to death here while
playing in a barn. Edna, the only child
of q. ID. Cheatham, and Mary, daughter
of Fred Lilly, both children about
four years of age. The alarm was
given by Mr.. Lilly's boy, who is sup
posed to have been playing with the
little girls and set the fire. Although
far beyond control when discovered,
the fire was prevented from spreading
to other buildings, and the bodies Sc
cured before they were burned beyond
identification. A horse was also in the
barn, and burned.

Island of Mindnnao.

Manila, Sept. 9.-Gen. Chaffee has
ordered Gen. Sumner, commanding the
department of the Mindanao, to lead
a column against the Macin Moros. In
his order Gen. Chaffee suggests that
eight companies of infantry, two
troops of cavalry and one battery shall
form at Camp Wears, Island of Min
danao. Moro chiefs whose followers
have attacked American soldiers have
rejected all friendly overtures. The
military records show that since the
Bayan fight last May the Moros have
made IL attacks on American soldiers,
killing four Americans and wounding
IL, including on officer.

governor in Mondays election from 200
cities and towns give Hill (repD 34,O51;

city. Lamon is recorded as having
said: mo more timely and effective

lucky, had just arrived, and that he
was military man of experience.
Requesting the men to await his
return, Lamon went at once to Clay's
room, stated the object of his visit,
the capitals peril, Scott's desire, and
then, without waiting to hear more,
Clay ran to his trunk, took from it
his old uniform, sword, hat and sash,
put off his travelling clothes, and
said: 81 came here ready for serv-
dee. This uniform 1 wore in the
Mexican war. This sword shall al
ways be found flashing beneath the
stars and stripes while l live"
They returned to the hall, where
Clay, in uniform, made speech
which electrified the men. The or.
ganization was completed at once
and Gen. Butterfield, of New York
assumed the duties of orderly ser.
.geant and drill master. Within "a
hours the command was enlarged
until $40 men were on duty guard

ecutive departments and all of the
bridges approaching the city.

Especial washington Letter.l

ESIHIS is the story of two heroes.
They are almost the sole sur
@2 vivors of as brave band as
ever defended any lofty principle.
Their deeds have not yet been
blazoned upon shaft, architrave or
: monument, but history. shall not per-
INIT them to be forgotten.
Seeds of dissension had been sown
for many years. Ambitions of un-
worthy men cultivated and developed
them. The fructifcation of treason
marked the Inauguration of Abraham
Lincoln. The national capital was a
hotbed of secession. The govern
ment itself was not loyal to the peo-
pie which sustained it. The execu-
tive departments were depleted by
the designations of clerks who went
forth to aid those who would destroy
the government.
Lieut.. Gen. Scott, venerable and
feeble, was one of the few upon
whom President Lincoln could posi-
lively rely. The old general re-
ceived reliable information about the
middle of April, 1861, that on GER
tain night an attack would be made
upon this city by confederates then
encamped at Alexandria, Va, only
five miles distant. The city was
practically defenseless. There was n
battalion of men at the arsenal, but
their commander was suspected of
disloyalty, and Gen. Scott could not
trust him. Afterwards he demon
strated his loyalty. President Lin
coin was greatly disturbed, and Gen.
Scott could devise no defense until
soldiers from northern states might
arrive, and they were exceedingly
slow, their movements having been
delayed by reasonable artifices.
Gen. Scott at last devised the plan
which saved the capital, and proba-
bly, prevented the immediate recog-
milton of the confederacy by foreign
governments. The old general sent
for Ward II. Lamon, formerly Lin
coins law partner, but then the new
1y appointed United States marshal
for the District of Columbia. He re-
quested Lamon to organize, arm and
equip a military force to be known
as the marshal's guard, and to re-
port to army headquarters for or
ders.
Marshal Lamon went to old Will
1ards hotel, selected ten reliable
men, invited them into n private
room where he unfolded the plan OF
the lieutenant general, and they
heartily approved the plan. Each
one of them agreed to select ten
other reliable men and assemble al
the hotel at eight o'clock that night
Lamon secured the keys to Willard
hall, an adjunct of the hotel, and al
eight o'clock 100 determined men
assembled. Lamon had made requi.
sition on the war department for
arms, ammunition and sabers. The
men were told the purpose of the
gathering, they accepted arms and
solemnly vowed to stand together
for the defense of Washington until
the long-eXpected troops should ar
rive. Lamon offered the command tc

is BRADFORD A PERJURER ?
u So, He Has Been Big gamist for
Many Years, and Also Guilty
of Wifc-DesertiOn.

Chicago, Oct. 15.-If Eugene L.
Bradford is perjurer now, as al
legged, he has been "A bigamist for 27
years, and also is guilty of deserving,
nearly forty years ago, the girl he is
said to have married while serving as
solSier in the civil war.
Bradford, who is 81 years old, and
lives at Kingston, ILL.,, was arrested,
tuesday, on a charge of perjury.
Twenty-seven years ago he was mar
ried to Maggie f. Welch. Two years
ago woman claiming to be Mrs.
Ollie Bradford, of Knoxville, Tenn.
applied for pension as the widow Of
Eugene l.. Bradford, formerly pri-
vate in the Elgin battery of the Illi-
nois light artillery. The woman said
she was married to Bradford at
knoxville on January &c, 1865, and
that she lost track of her husband a
month afterward. AS the pension bu-
reau had a Eugene L. Bradford on
its rolls, the Knoxville woman's claim
was rejected. To examiners of the
pension office Bradford admitted hav-
ing been in Knoxville with the union
army in 1868, but denied any ac-
quaintance with the woman who saws
she became his wife.
After more than a years investiga-
tion of the case the pension commits
sioner urged vigorous prosecution,
which resulted, last week, in the fed
eral grand jury indicting Bradford
for testifying falsely in regard to
his wifes claim for pension.
