Paris, May 9.-Commander

NJ. De Lanessan, from TT. De
France, Island of Martinique,
under date of May s, 10: p. m, as
follows: Have just returned
from St. Pierre which has been

"President Roosevelt, if he
thinks any trust conflicts with
the welfare of any nation, may be
relied upon to do what he can to
protect the people, but, except in
railway systems, l don't think
Legislation will be needed. Con-
gress may fix railway rates before
long"
Regarding the Steel Trust, he
said:
II don't bother with the details
of management. The owners of
the stock know what they are
about. | have none and never
had any. The trust is booming.
THE demand for steel is enor-
nous and the Republic will this
year come very near making as
much steel as all the rest of the
world. Next year she will pro-
badly do more than this and the
nation that makes the cheapest
steel is to pc reckoned with. The
Republic is too prosperous to give
foreigners any of its steel. De-
velopment at home takes every
tor it can make. Happy is the
country that develops its own re.
sources and hasn't to send its
steel way to develop in other
lands.
More than 10000 emigrants
reached its shores in April and
the human tide is flowing toward
it. There is plenty of work al
highest wages. The prosperity
of the United States continue,
unchecked. No change is ye'
visible. Much depends on thi,
years crops"

SAYS AMERICA Will
ABSORB ENGLAND.
Care Fig for the Flag; Its the Dividends
That Count Says nr Carnegie.

London, Nav S.-Mr. Andrew
Carnegie is an optimist of opti-
mists. He landed at Southamp-
ton at 7 o'clock this morning and
arrived at London two hours later.
After removing the CRIME OF
travel he sat down and gave out
an interview, which fairly bub-
bled with hopefulness and salts
faction with the world and HIM
self.
He reiterated his idea that the
day will come when Great Britain
will be a State in an Anglo
American federation and that in
matters of trade and politics the
two countries should treat each
other not as rivals but as partners.
In the future, he said, the English
nation must turn its face to its
kin beyond the sea and its own off
spring. In the future Britain is
not to be d European power but
will Join hands with its own race
in the west.
The feeling towards the 'old
home" was never so strong or cor
dial as now. Race patriotism has
taken root.
AS to Morganizing and the At
lantic shipping combination, Mr..
Carnegie said:
ITO make combination in sea
traffic is a big order. There is a
free right of way over the old
ocean and the tramp steamer we
have always with us.
1.-THE merger may give regular
daily SalllngS tor passenger ser
vice, which would be advanta-
geous.
Il cannot imagine that the
combination has any other motive
than a business one, etfeCting
economies by rearrangements oi
services and Offices and insuring
monopoly of traffic for certain
American railways, while raising
freight charges and fares.
1T is purely a matter of max
ing money. There is no patriot
ism in it. Trade does not care
fig for the flag. It's the divi-
dendS that count"
AS to trusts in general, Mr.
Carnegie said:
Combinations are the tenden
cyOf the age, and combination
will compete with combination
and quarrel, as individuals hav,
done. and will not long be allowc,
to erioy exceptional returns.

DISPATCH FROM FRENCH CAPTAIN.
Paris, May 1O.-The minister
of marine has received the follow
ing undated dispatch from Pointe
A'Pitre, island of Guadeloupe,
from the commander of the French
cruiser SuChet: II obtained the
following information of the
events yesterday. The volcano
threw up a considerable mass of
smoke and earth. A whirlwind
of fire Immediately followed. In
stantly the whole town of St.
Pierre was in flames, and the
ships in the harbor were dismast-
ed and burned.
"A shower of rocks lasted for
a quarter of an hour. arrived
at St. Pierre at 2 o'clock in the
afternoon of the same day and
and saved few persons from the
burning ships. | saw no living
creature in St. Pierre, to which
it was impossible to penetrate.
There were numerous corpses
near the quay.
ERUPTIONs CONTINUE.
Fort De France, Martinique,
May 1O.-1:45 pm The earth
quakes have ceased but volcanic
eruptions still continue.
CONGRESS TAKES ACTION.
Washington, May 10.-The
senate passed a bill introduced by
Senator Fairbanks, of Indiana,
appropriating 100000 for the
purchase of supplies for the relief
of sufferers by the disaster in
Martinique.
The bill for the relief of citi-
zens of the French West Indies
was presented to the house short
ly before | o'clock. Mr.. Under
wood, of Alabama, expressed the
opinion there was no occasion for
a "legislative spasm," He said
the reports might be exaggerated
and thought some official report
should be had before Legislative
action be taken. 1t would do no
harm to wait uutil Monday.
RESORT WAS SPARED.
Paris, May l0.-A cable dis
patch says Morne-Rouge, a beau
ti.ul resort situated between st.
Pierre and the crater of Mont.
Pelee was spared.
RECOVERED -FOUR HUNDRED
New York, May 1O.--The
French cable company's Offices in
this city were advised today that
their repair steamer Pouyer
Queentier has arrived at Fort De
France, having rescued $50 per-
sons from st. Pierre. 1t will re-
turn in search of others.

continues.
ALI. ISLANDS ISOLATED.


Kingston, Jamaica, May 9.-All
the islands in the neighborhood
of Martinique are isolated, appar-
emily by an earthquake. Cable
communication to St. Vincent,
Barbados, Granada, Trinidad,
Mederia and St. Louisa is inter-
rupted.
ALL PERISH.
St. Thomas, D. w. l., May g.
Commander French reports that
at one o'clock Thursday the en-
tire town of St. Pierre was wrap D.
ped in flames. He endeavored to
save about thirty persons, more
or less burned, from vessels in
the harbor. His officers went
ashore in small boats seeking
survivors, but were unable to
penetrate the town. They saw
heaps of bodies on the wharves
and believed not a single person
resident in St. Pierre at the time
of the catastrophe escaped. The
Governor of the colony and his
staff, and wife were in St. Pierre
and probably perished. The ex-
tent of the catastrophe can not be
imagined. The captain of the
British steamer Roddam was very
seriously injured and is now in
the hospital at St. Lucia. All
his officers and engineers were
killed or are dying. Nearly every
member of the crew is dead.
VERY SERIOUS
London, May 9.--Gov. Llew.
ellyn of the Windward Isla nds

PR0F. DlVlD I. HOUSTON.


The board Of directors Of the
Agricultural and Mechanical COL
lege Of Texas have disposed Of the
duty Of selecting a president for
the institution in q manner that il
likely to meet with the hearty APP
proval Of the people Of the state.
Their choice has fallen upon
Prof. David +. Houston. of Austin,
a gentleman who was not candi-
date for the position. and whose
name bad not previously been con-
nected with il. II seems to have
been a case in which the Office
clearly sought the man, inasmuch
as the press dispatches state that
the directors communicated with
Prof. Houston and asked il he
would accept the place before he
was elected.
The selection seems to have been
most excellent one, and at Col
lege and in Bryan, so far as the
writer has been able to learn, il is
viewed with great satisfaction,
while those who are personally ac-
quainted with the president elect,
are enthusiastic in their express
sions of approval. 1t is also
source Of qualification to the friends
OF the institution that the selection
is one which has no political fla
vor or significance, and entails no
obligations save such AS duty may
impose.
Prof. Houston is 80 years Of age
and was born in South Carolina.
He received his education at the
South Carolina State college, get.
ting a degree in 1887. lie served
his college one year and declined
the reappointment to accept the
SUPPLEMENTARY Of the city schools
OF spartansburg. 5. c. He then
pursued graduate work in Harvard
for three years, holding a fellow
ship in economics and government.
lie left Harvard in 1894 to accept
an adjunct professorship in the
Texas university and was later
promoted 10 an associate profess
sorship and three years afterward
was given full professorship and
was elected dean of the faculty i
which position he now holds. His
char in the university is the sci
ence of economics and government. !
lie Is man OF high moral char
acter, strong mental endowments |
and marked administrative ability. |
As a disciplinarian he is kind bat
firm and unyielding. He is very
popular among his associates at
Austin, where he is regarded as
,ne Of the most efficient men in
he faculty of the state university.
Prof Houston will be installed
Is president ofthe college as soon
IS it is possible for the arrange
nents TO be made.
