MORE NEEDED.
Sum Voted by Congress
Inadequate and More
Is Asked.

Washington, May 14.-President
Roosevelt late yesterday afternoon ap-
proved the bill passed by congress ap-
propriating 100000 for the relief of
the citizens Of the French West In
dies.
1t appeared by noon that so rapidly
had the governments agents worked
that the war department alone had
spent over 100000 of the relief appro-
priation. 1t was realized that consid-
cradle heavy items of expenditure re-
mained to be made and it was tho
opinion of the president and his caDi-
net that the 100000 appropriated
would not be sufficient to meet the
needs in the case.
IC was decided that an effort shoud
be made to have congress accept the
estimate of 100000 submitted in the
presidents message Of Tuesday.
The war and navy departments have
decided 10 divide the work of relief
full charge of the general subject of
partment with the accumulation of
the supplies.
The Leonidas, which is now dis
charging her cargo of coal at Port
Royal, has been selected as the most
suitable one to dispatch to Martinique,
and orders have gone forward to load
her with supplies and get her under
way as soon as possible.
Secretary Hay telegraphed Consul
Ayme to ascertain the conditions on
Martinique, with regard to the fresh
water supply, and IL it can be found
that such water is needed, the tenders
at Norfolk and Key West, which al
ready are being loaded by orders from
Admirap Bradford In anticipation OF
need for them. will Immediately make
for the little island.

TERROR !!
STALKS
Upon Devastated Mar.
tinique--Few Bodies
Are Recovered.

Fort de France, May 14.--Strange to
relate, in view OF the number of in
habitants of st. Pierre who were swept
10 death by the volcanic waves from
Mount Pelee on last Thursday, very
few corpses have been found by those
who are engaged in the work Of
eremating dead bodies.
This is due to the fact that the
most of the populous quarters of the
town arc buried under a thick layer Of
cindered lava, which apparently en-
tirely consumed tho bodies OF the vic
TINS.
Words fail to describe the present
situation at St Pierre. A small de.
tachment of French troops is making
efforts to inter the dead, although the
government seems to be atrikingly
uuconcerned rs to what is done in this
direction.
The United States government tug
Potomac, which came to Martinique
from San Juan, Porto Rico, cruised
along tho coast of the island yester-
dey afternoon. She encountered an
fnky black column of smoke, which
made It necessary for her to give
