employees OF BIG STORES
Conditions Under Which They Work Be.
Ing Considered by Commercial
Club p. A. Committee.

Plans for lettering the condition Of en-
ployes Of the big stores of Minneapolis
were informally considered at a meeting
Of the Commercial Club public affairs
committee yesterday afternoon. Reports
were submitted by Eugene Hay, W. D.
Washburn, Jr., and w. G. Nye, delegates
to the reciprocity convention at Detroit.
Mr.. Nye told Of the work of the public
bodies Of Detroit and Cleveland. In the
Ohio city department stores and factories
maintain branches of the public library.

minds through reading without incon-

that local stores would take kindly to such
an innovation here.

of their own state, worked tirelessly and
persistently in the face of tremendous
obstacles for this national enterprise, and
to no one, not even to the old soldiers
themselves, did success give more gratif1-

War veterans. managers Of the national
home and it's branches and all who have
visited Hot Springs without prejudice
have Endorsed the location as the best,
all things considered that could have been
obtained They found climate mild in
winter and cool and bracing in summer.
Healing and refreshing springs justly
celebrated both sides Of the Atlantic,

and commercial >centers, is by no means
difficult Of access, or isolated The slun-
bering, fertile valleys and lofty mountain
peaks are features Of the picturesque en-
vironment. The symmetrical pine may be
seen in every direction, while the 1cra
of the region are attractive and varied.
Near by Is the wonderful Wind cave,
which has been made a national reserve

commercialism, and other natural Curl

a million or more in conveniences and
comforts for the declining days of its
defenders and individual effort shall have
been put forth more generally, thousands
will journey to this restful spot among
the hills and pines where now but the
comparative few find their way. =

He was then released and the couple

message was received here stating
that the girl had committed suicide by
taking laudanum.
Her parents say her disgrace has
proved too much for her. a week ago
she took laudanum, but was rescued.
Wednesday Traver was arrested at

Likelihood of Anthracite
Troubles Con-
tinuing.
THE PRESENT STATUS
Coal Companies Pre-
pare for an Indefi-
mite Siege.

Philadelphia. May 13.-AIine work
ers throughout the entire anthracite
coal regions of Pennsylvania TO the
number of $4,000 formally began
their struggle yesterday for increased
wages and shorter hours. Never in
the history of hard coal mining has a
tie-up been so complete, not one of the
35T cOllierieS in the territory being in
operation. There is every justification
for the belief that the suspension,
which was to cover only the first three
days of this week. will be made per-
manent 10y the miners general con-
ventiOn. which will meet at HaZleton
tomorrow. Absolute quiet prevailed
everywhere yesterday.
All the local unions throughout the
region met during the day and even
ing and elected delegates to the Halle
ton convention. 1t is significant that
in every instance where the vote of a
local became public property the bal
lot showed decided majority for a
permanent strike unless the operators
grant concessions.
Coal Companies Prepare for Siege.
The coal companies in various parts
of the regions have already made prep
aratiOns for Il seige. Coal train crews,
telegraph operators. switchmcn. car
penterS. machiniStS and other employees
numbering several thousand, not iden-
titled with the United Mine Workers,
have been laid off until further notice.

Erne in the first round of their glove
contest. After brisk exchanges that
did neither any harm, Cans got both
hands to head and Erne seemed Il trifie
dazed. Cans felt him out with Il left
above to the face. drawing blood from
nose. Erne seemed daZed and Cans
rushed. putting right plump on Erne's
jaw. Erne fell slowly to the floor with
his mouth and nose bleeding. rolled
over on his stomach and was counted
out before he could attempt to regain
his feet. The time of the round was
one minute and forty seconds.
The fight makes Cans champion OF
his class. All Erne's friends declare
the win fuke. and one of Erne's
seconds said: Cans viii have to fight
him again. for there was fluke win

SCENES IN THE ILL-FATED CITY
Not Honse Intact-HumanC Corpses Scat
tered and In Piles.

The city of ST. Pierre stretched
nearly two miles along the water front
and half Il mile back to cliff at the
base of the volcano. The houses of
the richer French families We're built
of stone. The still smoking volcano
lowered above the ash-covered hills.
The ruins were burning in many places
and frightful odOrs of burned flesh
filed the air. With great difficulty a
landing was effected. Not one house
was left intact. Niscid heaps of mud.
ashes, or piles of volcanic stones, were
seen on every side. The streets could
hardly be traced. Here and there amid
the ruins were heaps of corpses. Al
most all the faces were downward.
In one corner twenty-five bodies of
men, women and chilren were mingled
in one awful mass, arms and legs
prOtruding as the hapless beings fell
i'm the last struggles of deaths agony.
Through the middle of the old Place
Bertin ran a tiny stream-the remains
of the River Gayave. Great trees with
roots upward aud scorched by fire
were strewn In every direction. Huge
blocks of still hot stones were scat
tered about From under one large
stone the arm of white woman pro-
truded. Most notable was the utter
silence and the awful. overpowering
stencil from the thousands of dead.
Careful inspection showed that the
fiery stream which so completely de-
Stroyed St Pierre must have been
composed of poisonous gases, which
instantly suffocated every one who in
hailed them. and of other gases burning
furiously. for nearly all the victims
had their hands covering their mouths.
or were in some other attitude show
ing that they had sought relief from
suffocation. All the bodicS were car

OVER YOUNG TO BE MARRIED
Mother snes for Divorce for Her Son, Who
Is Under Age.

Grand Rapids, Mich, May 13.--A
somewhat unusual condition of affairs
is disclosed in the bill of divorce filed
in the circuit court by Julia Scribner,
who appears as next friend, in behalf
of her son, Charles Scribner, who in
the eyes of the law is an infant
Young Scribner is not quite 20 years
of age. but has been married for more
than Il year. The suit is brought
against Frances Scribner, who is her
husbands senior and who was n wild
ow.
The bill of complaint makes the
statement that the infant husband has
no trade, and in consequence is en-
abled to earn only a mere pittance. In
view of his heIpleSsneSs in this par
ticular his parents have assisted him
in the support of his wife. and it is
claimed never refused to do so. De-
sertiOn and extreme cruelty and re-
fusal TO live in the home provided by
her husband, that is. with his parents,
are urged as the reasons why Il de-
cree of divorce should be granted.

Fort de France. Martinique, May 13.
1t now seems to be generally admit
ted that about 10000 persons lost their
lives as a result OF the outbreak of the
Mont Pelee volcano at st. Pierre on
Thursday last. The United States con-
sui mt Guadeloupe. Louis II. Ayme, has
reached the desolate spot where st.
Pierre stood, and confirms the awful
story in all its essential details. From
an interview with Colonel Ayme, who
is trained newspaper man, a corre-
sDondent of the Associated Press
learned the following facts:
Preliminary to the Catastrophe.
Thursday morning the inhabitants
of the city awoke to find heavy clouds
shrouding the Mont Pelee crater. All
day Wednesday hOrrid detonations had
been heard. These We're echoed from
st. Thomas on the north to BaradoeS
on the south. The cannonading ceased
on Wednesday night, and fine ashes
fell like rain on st. Pierre. The inhab-
itantS were alarmed. but Governor
Mouttet. who had arrived at st. Pierre
the evening before, did everything pos
sible to allay the panic. The British
steamer Roraima reached st Pierre
on Thursday with ten passengers,
among whom We're Mrs. Stokes and
her three children. and Mrs. ii. ]. Ince.
Swept by Cyclone of Fire.
They We're watching the rain of
ashes when. with Il friChtful roar and
terrific electrical discharges, 4 cyclone
of fire. mud and steam swept down
from the crater over town ard bay,
destroying the fleet of vessels at an
chor off the shore and wiping out St
Pierre at the same instant. There the
accounts OF the catastrophe so far OBJ
tainablc cease. Thirty thousand cOrpses
are Strewn about. buried in the ruins
of st. Pierre. or else floating. gnawed
by sharks. in the surrounding seas.
Twenty-eight charred. half dead, hu-
man beings We're brought here. Six
teen of them are already dead, and
only four of the whole number are
expected to recover. The Associated
Press steamer. chartered in Guade-
loupe, neared Martinique at 6:30 Sun
day morning.
View After the Disaster.
The island with its lofty hills was
hidden behind n huge wall of violet,
or lead colored. haze. Enormous guam
titles of the wreckaGe of large and
small ships and houses strewed the
surface of the sea. Trees. and, too
often. bodies. with hOckS of sea gulls
soaring above and hideous sharks
fighting about them. We're floating here
and there. From behind the volcanic
veil came blasts of hot wind, mingled
with others ice cold.

bitten by a Mad Cat.

Kokomo, Ind, May 13.-Clifford,
the 4-year-Old son of Carl Tatem,
head booker at the plate glass works,
attempted to pet a strange cat, when
the animal flew at him like an enraged
lion and bit and scratched him nearly
all over the body. The child is so
badly lacerated that death is feared.
The ferOcious cat was run down and
killed. The boys arm is about three
times its normal size. and the flesh
has turned almost black. 1t is thought
that blood poison will result.
