SUBNERGING VESUVIUS REGION
Oceans OF Mud Inundating the Entire
Section-Situation Described as q
Black Misery.

Naples, April 28.-Oceans OF mud
brought from the mountain side by tor
rental rains Friday night are practi-
cally submerging the vesuvius region.
The situation can only be described as
a black misery. and IL 1t rains again
soon 1t will be absolutely hopeless.
The recent eruption Of Mount VesuvIus
having closed the old water channels, a
torrent Of rain Friday night had thou
sands OF outlets in all directions, and,
carrying black mud with II, broke up
bridges. weakened houses at the bases
as the ashes had already done on the
drinking water and attacked all .haG
the ingenuity of man had erected for
his own benefit
Among the people today was seen
the calmness Of despair, there were no
rawlings or terror, but the despair
which weakens the will and removes
the desire to do anything. About 80
houses were almost submerged, but
have not yet fallen may be saved IL
the rains are not repeated; but IL thA
down pour starts again preparation
has been made to blow them up with
dynamite In order TO preevnt a worse
disaster.
Wood huts are being erected rapidly
AZ Ottajano for the homeless, and the
houses that were damaged by the
eruption are being strengthened by an
army OF nasons.

INDIAN APPROPRIATED BILL
Measure Passes the Senate-SpOOnel
the Champion of the Indian.

Washington, April 2S.-The Senate
today passed the Indian Appropriation
bill. Several hours were devoted to 9
spirited debate on the question of 1e-
moving the restrictions from the al
lotted lands of the Choctaws, Chero-
KEGS, Chickasaws, Creeks and Semi
noles, except full bloods. After an
amendment was offered and amended
to suit those who favored it, a point
of order was made against the pro-
vision and sustained by the vice presi-
dent
Mr.. Spooner was the particular
champion of the Indian in preventing
the renewal of the restriction, but
Messrs. Teller, Long and others who
favored the amendment charged that
he was misguided in his zeal, and the
Indians themselves wanted to be per
mitted to seek market for their sur
plus lands.
Mr.. Spooner said the entire argu-
ment appeared to be for the white man
with nothing for the Indian.
The Senate adjourned until Monday.

CRAPsEY CASE WITH JUDGES


Batavia. y. Y. April 2s.-The fate
Of Rev. DR.. Aigernon s. Crapsey, as q
clergyman, OF the Protestant Episcopa,
church, rests with his judges. The
trial of the rector OF St Andrews,
Rochester. on charges OF heresy and
violation OF ordination VOWS, ended to-
day with the final arguments of coun-
sci for the accused and for the pros
ecution. The ecclesiastical court of five
members took the evidence under
consideration. and will render a YER
dict TO Bishop Walker. Of the diocese
of Western New York, on or before
May 18th.
Edward Nj. Shepard of New York,
concluded for the defense.
He declared that the church is not
simply an organization ruled by by
laws and regulations, a legal docu-
ment, or a club but rather a beautiful
and expanding growth; church
which loves liberty, which looks with
indulgence upon its presbyters when
they err through human frailty. 1t
recognizes the possibility. the likeli-
hood of human error and says: Cad
will take care that the truth will
come out and prevail
in which he said that several well
known English clergymen have ex-
pressed views which could assuredly
have been declared more heretical
than those uttered by DR.. Crapsey, and
either have never been brought to
trial for them or have been tried and
acquitted.
Judge Stiness, of Rhode Island for
the prosecution said:
Mr.. Shepard argued almost every
question except that actually before
the court, which is Has DR.. Crapsey
under his ordination vows, the right
to say Christ was not born of the Vir-
gin Nary"
The plea has been made that the
court should acquit the defendant on
the ground of lberality, but I say
to you that the church must guard in
violate its sacred doctrines. The
church has a solemn duty to teach GER
tain truths and she cannot permit a
man holding contrary beliefs to serve
her"
Following Judge Stiness John
L. O'Brian made the closing argument
for the prosecution.

Minority HOUSE Leader Concludes
His Speech
WAS REPLIED TO BY CUSHNAN
Williams Unable to Conclude on Ac-
count of NeuraIgia-He Discussed
the Speech Made by Hepburn-Eu-
logies to be Delivered on the Life of
the Late Representative pinckney

Washington, April 2s.-Mr. Williams,
the minority leader of the house, COLI
cluded his speech begun yesterday, oc-
cupying the floor for two hours. With
the experience of the many Interrupt
tions of the day before, the leader of
the minority threw himself upon the
mercy Of the body, and asked that
he be not interrupted. Generally his
there questions were put to him by
Mr.. Boutell of Illinois; Mr.. Hamilton,
OF Michigan, and c. B. Landis, of Indi-
ana, which nettled the speaker not a
little. Mr. Williams was unable to
conclude on account of severe attack
Of neuralgia, contenting himself with
what had been said against existing
tariff schedules, and availing himself
Oh the privilege to enlarge upon the
subject in his published speech.
Mr.. Cushman, OF Washington, replied
to Mr.. Williams, but was taken off the
floor before he had really got started
owing to the former action of the
house, agreeing to conclude general de-
bate on the agricultural appropriation
bill at $3.50 o'clock, at which time the
house adjourned until tomorrow when
eulogies will be delivered on the life
Of the late Representative Pinckney, of
Texas.
Mr. Williams again discussed the
speech made by MI. Hepburn, of Iowa.
He took exception to Mr.. Hepburn's
Ir,y y>fy ,cr''f hn ha
has come into use much like the ''sur-
plus" used in the disposition of goods
abroad He said that the selling Of
goods abroad was neither dumping
process or surplus" process, but was
an ''exploitation" process. He de-
clared that the American steel trust
had been dumping their goods in for
eign markets for the past ten years and
there was indubitable proof that the
steel people did sell their product low
er in foreign markets than in the
home market He had no sympathy
with the statement that the lower price
was obtained abroad because of the
over production in this country. The
fact remains, he said, that prices were
greater at home than abroad.
Mr. Williams, after holding the at
tention of the house for the greater
part of two days concluded his speech
with the statement that protection
ism is rank socialism, rank agrarian-
ism and rank communism.
Mr.. Sims, of Tennessee, said he had
just commenced to fight in favor of the
rural patrons of rural free delivery
building their own rural boxes insteai
of being compelled to purchase boxes
authorized by the postofice depart
ment.

SALARIES ARE TOO HIGH
Senate Committee Discusses the Ques>
ton of Amounts Received by Canal
Commissioners.

Washington, April 28.-In consider
ing suggested legislation for the gov
eminent of the canal zone, the senate
committee on inter-Ocea1ic canals to-
day discussed the question of salaries
Of canal commissioners and incidental
ly the nominations pending. 1t was
argued that the salary of the chairman
was too high, and several senators IA
the compensation Of various canal
officials at considerably less than
they are now receiving. In the event
the salary of the chairman is decreas-
ed it is expected Theodore P. Shonts,
the present incumbent, will resign. He
now receives $4,000 annually.
The chief engineer, John Z. Stevens,
receives the same amount, but il is
the intention of the committee not to
disturb his compensation. Another
question that will be considered by the
committee before the resolution is re-
ported is the holding Of dual positions
by canal officials. Governor Magoon.
of the canal zone, is a member of the
canal commission, member of the ex-
ecutiye committee and minister 10 the
republic Of Panama. The committee is
said TO be unit against the man hold
ing so many positions. II is said The
resolution also will provide for the Ill
vorcing OF joint positions where the in
cumbents serve the canal commission
and the Panama railroad. It was
agreed that nothing should be done
with the nominations OF canal commits
sioners until after the question OF sala-
ries has been determined.
