UNSUCCESSFUL HANGING.
Officers Forced to Spring Trap ;
Second Time.

Pittsburg, March 24.-Two men
were hanged here during the day
and the first unsuccessful hanging
was recorded in Allegheny county.
Reno Dardaia went to the scaffold
first and his neck was broken. Will
lam J. Byers followed him and when
the trap was sprung the loop of the
moose pulled away, precipitating him
to the ground. For about one minute
he staggered around under the scat
fold and then Sheriff Dick caught him
and, removing the moose and black
cap, carried him into the Jail. He
was not badly hurt as the result of
the fall The rope was again adjust
ed and Byers, pale and trembling,
was again placed on the scaffold and
the trap sprung. This time there was
no mishap and death resulted from
strangulation.

TEN DEAD AND MANY INJURED
I'M EFFRAY AT LAMENTA,
RUSSIAN POLAND.

Kutno, Russian Poland, March "a
Ten peasants were killed and fifty
were wounded at Lamenta March Il
as the result of the shooting of infan-
try sent to quell disturbances. A
crowd of peasants from Benignowa
proceeded to I4amenta to induce the
farm lahorers to strike and rioting
occurred. The chief of police, with a
company of soldiers, went to the
scene and the troops fired two vol
leys at the peasants, killing two on
the spot and wounding fifty. The
latter were brought in carts to the
hospital here. where seven men and
one woman subsequently died. Eleven
others are dying.
The shooting of peasants at Lamen-
ia has aroused intense excitement in
the whole district. The action OF the
authorities in shooting down un.
armed peasants is angrily criticised
and a deputation of residents of kut'
no is proceeding to Warsaw to lay
complaints before the governor gen.
eral.

EUROPEAN POWERS MAY DECIDE
TO PRESS CLAIMS AGAINST
SANTO DOMINGO.
CONSIDER AMERICAN TREATY LOST
SEkhrE'S FAILURE TO RATiFY
CONVENTION THE CAUSE OF
APPREHENSION.

Washington, March 24.-In the alb
sence of the Belgian minister, Baron
Won Moncheur, nothing is known at
the Belgian legation regarding the
reference of President Morales in the
dispatches from San Domingo to the
Belgian claims which, the president
says, are being pressed. Several days
ago Baron Moncheur received from
his government cablegram asking If
any investigation was to be made by
an American commission into the
Dominican situation. 1t is supposed
that, in view of the senate's refusal
to deal with the Dominican matter,
the Belgian government feels it is
forced to pursue its own course.
| Other European powers also, while
willing to await the negotiations of
Secretary Hay, regard the attitude of
! the senate as so opposed to the pro-
posed course of the government that
they fear they will be obliged TO act
individually on the question. The
Belgian government has kept in close
touch with the state department in
the preceding phases of the San Do
mingo matter. Last fall, with Italy
and Germany, Belgium made inquiry
as to the intentions of the United
States relative to the collection OF
customs under the San Domingo I'M
| proyement company's protocol and
they expressed apprehension that the
! interests of their citizens having
claims against San Domingo would
suffer under the operations of the
protocol for the reason that sufficient
revenue to meet them would not be
available after the Dominican govern
ment had provided for its own main
tenance and the United States had
collected the revenues at Monte Cristi
and Puerto Plata. Their apprehen-
sions en- this score were somewhat
| relieved by the submission to the
senate OF the proposed Dominican
| treaty. With the failure of this treaty
state department officials think with
| President Morales that these creditor
nations have conceived the idea that
the treaty is lost and that it Is now a
case Of each one for himself.

GREAT RUSH OF IMMIGRANTS
Officials ut Ellis Island Are Almost
SWamped.

New York, March 24.-The spring
rush of immigration has almost
swamped the government officials at
Ellis island. In the last three days
10000 immigrants have reached this
port.
Reports received from abroad indi-
cate that the rush will continue to
increase in April and May and it is
feared that Ellis island will be taxed
beyond its capacity. Great demands
for steerage passage are being made
at nearly every port of immigrant
embarkation. The steerage capacity
on all of the principal steamship lines
already is booked many weeks ahead
and the companies are compelled to
put on extra steamers ITO meet the
great European exodus. Over 1000
Russian Hebrews have reached here
since the first of the month, but the
immigration from Italy leads the list
In point of numbers. In the last
twenty-five days Ellis island received
$4,000 Italians. The percentage of
Hungarian Immigration is also show
ing a remarkable increase.

ALL BUSINESS SUSPENDED
PUBLIC FUNERAL SERVICES FOR
VICTIMS OF BROckTON
(MASs.) DISASTER.

Brockton, Mass, March 24.-Public
funeral services were held during the
day for more than two score of per
sons who lost their lives last Mon
day in the explosion and fire which
created the greatest calamity in the
history Of the city and one of the
greatest New England ever has
known. Twenty thousand of Brock
tons inhabitants work in the great
shoe factories of the city and all that
vast number joined in the public
manifestation of sorrow. Sixty fac
tories closed their doors. Business
so far as possible was suspended.
Street cars did not run during the
funeral service and traffic on the
streets was almost entirely stopped.
Everywhere flags we're at half staff
and buildings draped with long black
streamers attested to the presence OF
a great universal bereavement. March
ing bodies of silent men, accompa-
MED by bands and drum corps play
ing dirges for the dead evidenced the
general sympathy with those left be-
hind by the men and women VINO
went to work Monday morning and
never returned to their homes.
During the forenoon the bodies OF
the fifty-five victims recovered from
the factory ruins were placed in cas-
kets. Three public funeral services
were held, one at the City theater,
another at the Porter Congregational
church, the third at st. Paul's Episco-
pal church.
Only fifteen of the fifty-five bodies
recovered from the fire ruins had been
identified, the remaining forty being
so mutllated as to be totally unrec-
ogniZable.

SITUATION is RELIEVED.
French Official Opinion of Venezuelan
Dispute.

Paris, March 24.-In the course of
Ambassador Porter's weekly visit to
the foreign office he conferred with
Foreign Minister Delcasse relative to
the Franco-Venezuelan situation and
it was disclosed that the French gov
ernment considers that the emer-
gency of the situation has been en-
tirely relieved as a result of the in
definite postponement OF the decision
of the Caracas court in the case OF
the French Cable company. The fr-
ture course is expected to be slow
owing to the necessity for carrying
on negotiations by mail. The authori-
ties here share the belief concerning
the hopelessness of the present re-
gime in Venezuela and incline to the
view that sooner or later some unit
ed means may have to be taken to
ensure respect for foreign interests
in Venezuela.

JAPS IN CLOSE PURSUIT.
Continue to Follow Russian Rear
Guard Northward.

Gunshu Pass, Manchuria, March "a.
The Japanese are following the
Russian rear guard, which is moving
north from Santoupu at the rate Oh
eight and half miles a day. On
both fianks the Japanese are operat-
ing a wide turning movement, but the
strength of the fanking forces has
not been definitely ascertained. At q
number of places along the railroad
between Santoupu and Gunshu pass
there are broken hills, with steep
sides and gorges at the bottom where
stubborn resistance might be made,
but 1t is doubtful whether General
Linevitch will make a stand before
he reaches the Sungari river and
.Chantchiatu. Unless he Is able TO
hold the line of the river the Russian
position will be SO weak strategically
that he may be compelled to retire
back OF Harbin into Siberia owing to
the fact that as they approach Har.
bin the Russian front parallels the
railroad. rendering the danger of a
severance of the sole line of communi-
cation constantly greater. The pros.
pect OF the isolation of Vladivostok
must also be met and it is urgently
necessary to supply the garrison with
provisions and ammunition, not for a
few months, but for two years.
Two hundred thousand reinforce
ments from Russia are now necessary
to make 1t possible for the Russians
to meet the Japanese on anything
like even terms.

Steamer Being Built Fitted Out With
New invention.

Berlin, March 24-The Hamburg
American line is building new
steamer at the Vulcan works at Stet-
tin which will be fitted out with an
invention of Otto Shick, an engineer
of Hamburg. which, 1t is expected,
will reduce the rolling of vessels at

Washington, March 24.-The sud-
den growth of the sentiment in Rus.
sian offlciai circles in favor of peace
is not at all surprising to the officials
here, because it is in line with the
predictions of the American embassy
in ST. Petersburg when last heard
from on this subject. In fact, it was
gathered that the real obstacles in the
way of beginning negotiations to this
end was to be found rather in the
jealousies of European powers out
side of Russia than in the cZar's own
court. There have for some time been
substantial evidences that, by the
execution OF quiet pressure from the
outside upon the st. Petersburg gov
ernment, it might be induced to break
the deadlock in the situation which
results from the reluctance of each
belligerent, as matter of pride, to
make the first overtures for peace.
But just at this point the efforts OF
the real friends of peace are said to
have been negatived by the fear OF
some of the European powers that
their interests might suffer in set
tlement which they did not themselves
arrange. There is reason to believe
now, however, that the great financial
interests of London, Berlin and Paris,
looking to their own salvation and the
security of their enormous Russian
loans, have risen above national lines
and that to the eXertion of their pow
erful influence is due the present
promise of peace in the near future.
