John w. Robbins left for his
home in Austin this morning after
spending yesterday looking over
our country. Mr. Robbins is now
our state treasurer and prior to
securing that Office he served in
the legislature for two terms, being
the author of our game law almost
exactly as it stands TO-DAY. Mr..
Robbins has large interests in
lands in the panhandle country
and has probably done more to
bring to pass the recent great de-
velopment of that country more
any other one man. While here
he spent almost all his time driv-
ing over the country and looking
at the soil and crops. Mr.. Rob-
bins expressed himself as being
highly pleased with the looks of
things in this corner of the world,
and expects to return when he has
more leisure and examine the
country thoroughly.

Hartman VS.. Hill.

PORTLAND, April 10.-The Ore
gonian tomorrow will print an article
to the effect that on Monday Hill and
Hartman forces met in a serious
clash near La Camas.
According to the version Of the
Columbia Valleys men, they stole a
march on their opponents, the Port
land & Seattle forces, and occupied
a deep cut where they began digging
the lower Portland & Seattle grade.
In order to brighten them away.
the Portland & Seattle graders
dropped dynamite into the cut, the
first few sticks not being ignited,
then several sticks with lighted fuses,
which were promptly pulled out by
Engineer Wise. The Hill forces then
dropped sticks with short fuses. Both
crews ran away. leaving the dyna-
mite to explode harmlessly.
Portland & Seattle officials deny
knowledge of the alleged dynamite
throwing by their construction gangs.

BAER BALKS PEACE.
Coal Operator the Cause
Of More DiscOrd.

NEW YORK, April 1O.-The an
thracite operators at conference
with the minew0rkers today declined
the proposition to have the concilia-
ton board arbitrate all grievances
submitted wageworkers, and made a
counter proposition that the COM
mission appointed by President
Roosevelt in 1902 be required to de-
eide whether any changes of condi-
tons in the hard coal regions had
occurred which would require the
award of the commission be modi-
fed.
At the conference today Chairman
Baer of the operators subcommittee
made public a letter sent to the COM
mittee by the independent operators,
in which they state that "any agree
ment to arbitrate with the United
Mineworkers would be an unjusti-
fable surrender to anarchy and mob
violence"
The letter was a surprise to the
miners, and does not tend to bring
the contending parties nearer togeth-
err. 1t was announced after very
brief session that another meeting
would be held Thursday.

held the undivided attention of the
senate with a speech in reply to Sen
ators Spooner and Knox. The day
was one of the most notable in the
senate's history Very few senator's

Several senators and many others
went without. luncheon rather than

both parties.
Bailey contended that congress
had the power to deny inferior courts
the right to suspend an order of the
interstate commerce commission
pending litigation. He cited many
authorities in support Of his position,
interspersing his citations with COM
ments.
Senator Hale announced his will

dence that, If Bailey would agree to

In No Hurry to Besiege Zion, but

CHICAGO, April 10.-Dr Dowie
did not advance on the "hosts Of
Zion" as suddenly as expected. To-
night he held a long conference with
his lawyer, after which Dowie gave
out the statement that it might be
several days before he saw fit to en-
ter the city he founded.
He arrived here this morning, and
was met by an immense crowd at the
depot.
Just what proceedings looking 10
Dowie's reinstatement in Zion will
be had is not known, but Dowie
did state emphatically that there was
to be no compromise with voliva,
and that he, Dowie, must be leader
Of Zion, or nothing at all.
This same spirit was manifested
at Zion City tonight when at con-
ference of the business committee OF
twelve appointed by Voliva it was de-
cided to send al the churches
throughout the world an order stat
ing that no more money would be
sent for Mexican land warrants. Re
garding this order, Overseer Piper
said the step was taken because of a
desire to completely block Dowie's
Mexican plan, and at the same time
to remove all chances of his access TO
the funds.
Dowie. when questioned regarding
the secret chamber discovered in the
basement of Shiloh house, admitted
knowing of his existence. He said
the former mayor of Zion, being an
extremely cautious man, believed it

ROME, April 1o.-A dispatch to
the Tribune from Naples reports that
500 persons persisted IN the district
between Otta Jano and San Giuseppe
In Naples a building fell on 200 per-
sons within. killing twelve, MORALLY
wounding two. dangerously wound
ing twentyfour, and more or less in
juring hundred more. Several Of
the dead are crushed and mangled
beyond recognition.
The hope of relief entertained by
sufferers early today faded away as
night approached. and the fate of
the villages and towns grouped
around the volcano seems more hope
less than ever.
The fall of cinders and ashes is in
creasing. Even the clothing and
hair of the people are covered with
ashes, giving them the appearance Of
CHASTITY gray ghosts. The flow of
lava from the crater is steadily in
|creasing, and the amount Of volcanic
ejecta is incomprehensible. It is
feared the weight Of ashes on the
roofs will cause the collapse Of many
more buildings.
A late dispatch from Naples says
the number of dead taken from the
collapsed church was twenty-six, and
that seventy nine were seriously in
jured.
