URE FAVoRABLY. -.-.
By Its Terms 30, 900 Acres of valu-
able Mineral Lands Will Be
Donated to Schools Of
Alabama.

Washington, June 4-(Special. 1.-The
House Committee on Public Lands today
decided to favorably report for passage
the Bowie bill which gives to the common
schools of Alabama 10000 acres of public
mineral lands. The favorable report by
the committee Is the most significant step
in the passage of a bill through Congress,
and it now looks as If the Bowie bill will
become a law.
Under the terms of the measure the
school fund will very probably be in
creased by million or more dollars, as
the land is very valuable. Some of 1t
may be sold for SO an acre.
For the passage of this bill Represen-
tatives Bowie, Burnett. Clayton and
Thompson have worked necessarily and
their success is cause for congratulations
by their friends. The bill is one of the
most important that Alabama has been in
terested in this session.
To Representative Burnett the thanks
of the State are due for the favorable
committee report. He is a member of
the Public Land Committee. and has
fought in season and out to have the
committee take up the bill and con-
slider it.

STREET CARS TIED UP.
Nearly Every Line in Rhode Island
at n Standstill.


New York. June 4.--Every street car
line in Rhode Island barring those In
Newport, in Woonsocket, In the Scituates
and in Foster, which are Independent
companies, were tied up at midnight, says
a Providence special to The Herald TINS
was the result of decision reached by
Division No. 200, of the Amalgamated AS
sociation Of Street Railway Employees AT
a special meeting.
A ten hour bill for street railway en-
ployes was unanimously adopted by the
General Assembly last fall. IT was 10 go
into effect last Sunday. On Saturday the
United Traction Company posted notices
to the effect that the ten-hour act was
unconstitutional and that 1t was the in
tention to test it in the Supraeme Court.
Division No. 200 yesterday afternoon
sent an ultimatum to the United Traction
Company, which Is about to be controlled
by a Philadelphia syndicate.
The demand included a specific observ-
ance of the ten-hour law: that all en-
ployes now receiving more than $Z,2o
day shall continue to have the same
wages for ten hours work; that all others
shall be paid 20 cents an hour for ten
consecutive hours the first year and % IL
cents an hour thereafter. That all en-
ployes other than gripmen. motormen or
conductors. whether in the car houses, re-
pair shops or power Houses. shall be en-
ployed not exceeding nine hours a day
and have the same pay given them, and
that all work more than ten Hours shall
be at the rate of % cents an hour.
II these concessions were not agreed to.
1t was declared. the entire system of
the United Traction Company will be tied
up. beginning at midnight.
The company refused to grant these
demands.

HERBERT AS AMBASSADOR.
Senior de ojede Succeeds the Duke
d'Arcos.

u 1ASOS
Washington. June 1.-Two important
changes in the diplomatic representatives
in Washington were announced today.
The Hon. Michael Herbert succeeds the
late Lord Pauncefote as British ambassa
dor and Senior do Ojeda succeeds the Duke
de ARGOS as Spanish minister.
Notice of Mr.. Herberts appointment
simply confirmed the judgment of officials
as to the succession and is welcomed by
them. At present Mr.. Herbert is first
secretary of the embassy at Paris. but
with the rank of minister plcnipotentiary.
In very few instances does the British
Government employ an official of such
high rank in the office of secretary Of
embassy.
The change in the Spanish legation here
came as distinct surprise to all but the
intimate friends of the Duke d'Arcos. He
came to the United States as the first
Spanish minister after the war and nat
urally his position was a very delicate
one. requiring the exhibition of infinite
tact to avoid unpleasant incidents. He
was very successful in his mission, while
socially his relations have been very
| pleasant.
II is understood the change is attribut-
able entirely to the retiring minister's
desire to secure the best possible treat
ment for his impaired vision, which has
caused him much and growing concern.
therefore he has secured transfer to
the Spanish legation at Brussels There
he will be as near as practicable 10 an
eve specialist who already has undertaken
| his treatment at Inconvenient intervals
Senor dc Oieda. who succeeds the Duke
d.Arcos comes to Washington with ex-
cellont credentials He was secretary OF
the Spanish peace commission at Paris
and is at present minister to Tangier.

feat anv canal protest. He referred TO the
latest argument against the construction
of the Nicaragua canal, the CANCER from
earthquakes and volcanoes ana SAID tnat
the canal bill had been covered with VOL
canic SCOT and ashes as by a funerai pail
A part of the report of the minority OF
the committee, he said, was so soHlnfe
that he was surprised that the report rec
commended the construction of any canal
at all. Mr.. Morgan said his committee
did not regard the danger from volcanoes
or earthquakes as either probable or Sc
rious either as to the Nicaragua or Pa
mama route After the volcanic and sells
mic disturbances of recent months ne
was satisfied the danger to an isthmlan
canal had been lessened materially.
Mr. Morgan declared that Nicaragua
had been free from seismic disturbances
during the recent general disturbances,
but the region about the Panama canal
had ben disturbed seriously by earth
qnakes. He quoted Minister Merry as say
Ing that only the enemies of any canal
used the volcano or earthquake argument
against any canal route. Mr. Morgan
again referring to the disturbances re-
ported from Nicaragua, quoted a letter
from the Minister of Nicaragua to this
country calling attention to the fact that
the reports printed were untrue and that
the Associated Press had reported moth.

had the story been wei founded. He
maintained that all projects other than
that of the Nicaragua route were being
put forward in order to defeat any cana
legislation.
In conclusion the Alabama Senator
made a powerful appeal for action npor
the measure to which he has devoted
much Of his legislative life.

Washington. June 4-(Special. )-Repre-
sentative Thompson Of the Fifth District

Importance to the State.
One provides for the appropriation Of
100000 for the erection and maintenance

diers of the war with Spain and the
Mexican and Indian wars. The bill pro-
yides that the home shall be erected In

Mr.. Thompsons other bill provides for
the appropriation of $4,000 for the erec-
ton of a monument to the soldiers killed
at Emuckfau in Tallapoosa County by the
