STEAMER WRECKED
OFF ST. MAL0, ON NORTH COAST
OF FRANCE.
1t Is Believed That More Than 100 of
Her Passengers and Crew Were
Drowned-Steamer Had Lost Her
Course During Snow Storm and
Went on the Rocks.

London, Nov. 20.-The Southwest
ern railways cross channel steamer
Hilda was wrecked off st. Malo, on
the north coast of France, and it is
believed that 100 or more or her pas
sengers and crew were drowned.
The Hilda left Southampton Friday
night for st. Malo, with considerably
more than 100 souls on board. Her
passage was greatly delayed by fog
in the channel, and when nearing st.
Malo she ran into a severe snowstorm,
apparently missed her course and
fouDdered on the rocks off Jardin
lighthouse, three miles from St. Malo.
The company's steamer Ada, out
ward from st. Malo, rescued five of
the passengers and one of the crew.
These are now on the way to South
ampton. There is an unconirmed re-
port that 20 had been saved.
Passengers All Frenchmen.
The crew numbered 26 and there
were about 100 passengers, all French
men, the majority being onion dealers
from st. Brieuc and neighborhood.
A telegram from st. Severan,, ad-
joining the town of st. Malo, gives
the few particulars yet obtainable.
The Hilda was near st. Malo Saturday
morning. She struck the rocks at 4
o'clock Sunday morning in the road
stead off the island of Cezambre, hav-
ing missed the tide owing to bad wea-
Their and fog.
The majority of the crew and pas
sengers were asleep at the time. Two
boats were lowered, one of which, con-
tanning five men. arrived at st. Sew
eran. The second boat was picked up
empty at st. Cast, where 13 bodies
were washed ashore. The top of the
Hilda's funnel and the top of her
mast were visible at low tide, accord
ing to advices from st. Severan
The Hilda was built at Glasgow in
1oo2 and registered S4S tons. She
was a screw steamer of iron construc-
ton and was 235 feet in length.
Mad Scramble of Passengers.
The shock as she struck awakened
the passengers, who threw themselves
from their berths and rushed on deck
half clad. A mad scramble was made
for the boats, but long before the
frozen ropes could be worked clear
the vessel had broken in pieces and
the shrieks of the drowning were be-
ing carried shoreward by the wind.
Captain Alexander was on the
bridge at the time the vessel sank be-
meath the waves and his voice could
be heard above the shrieking of the
winds ordering the crew to their sta
tons to launch the boats"

Broader Uses of Soil Surveys.

For several years past the depart
ment of agriculture has been operating
soil surveys in various parts of the
United States for the purpose of deter
mining the value of special crops.
More than G0,000 square miles have al
ready been mapped, and records of the
surface and subsoil constituents and of
drainage have been made. Beyond the
value to agriculture the Importance Of
the information thus gathered is being
appreciated by the war department in
possessing data for military roads in
case of necessity, says the Good Roads
Magazine. Such information at the
time of the Spanish war would have
prevented the selection of a pestilential
camp like that established at Chick
amauga. These surveys will doubtless
prove Of great value, too, in determin,
ing highways for the many uses of
peaceful life, and the scope of the I'M
dertaking may well be broadened to
meet the demand for good roads, both
in defining the most favorable location
and in discovering the best materials
at hand

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
Principal Features of Document Sent
10 Conqress.

Washington, Dec. 5.-The presi-
dents message was read in both
houses of congress today. The mes
sage Is a document OF over $4,000
words and treats at length the prin-
c1pal questions before the people. Tho
president declares for rate legislation,
not IN spirit of hostility, but because
such action is necessary and the fed
eral government alone has authority
TO prevent unjust and unreasonable
rates. In regard to life insurance the
president declares the subject is too
great for adequate regulation by the
states and says the federal govern
ment should impose uniform and
strlcter regulation of the business.
Concerning the tariff the president as
serts that stability of revenue laws is
important to business interests. but he
recommends that congress consider
the question of maximum and MIMI
mum tariffs to be used in fostering
reciprocity with other nations. An
investigation of general labor condf-
tons by the department of commerce
is advised.

Washington, Dec. 5.-The assemb'

their first session was marked by no

the capitol crowds of spectators who
took lively interest in the proceed

In the senate the proceedings were
brief, but most of the spectators
seemed to find quite as much to in

took the oath Of office; the officers and
floor employees of the body We're re-

Millions of Dollars Spent by the Gov
eminent Yearly For Highways.
There are some things in the old
world from which America should
draw instruction and WISDOM says the
Kansas City Star. France has the
best roads on earth, divided into four
classes: First, national; second, de-
partmental; third, military, and fourth,
communal. National roads are built
and kept up by the national treasury;
department roads are a charge upon
the departments through which they
pass; the military roads are usually
kept by the government, but some
times the government is aided in this
work by the departments through
which the roads pass. The communal
roads, like our civil district and town
ship roads, are kept up by the COM
munes, but even these receive assist
ance from the government when they
pass through thinly populated regions.
The departmental roads are thirty-nine
feet wide and the other roads vary in
width
Not less than 100000 is annually
expended by the French government in
making new roads and repairing old
ones. This work gives employment to
$4,000 persons, and the total length of
the roads is something over 100000
miles. The roads are SO we'll con-
structed that one single man can keep
ten miles in repair if furnished with
piles of broken stone, placed at inter
walls along the road, and a cart for dis
tributing the stone. Every rut and
hole as fast as made is filled.
