DRESDEN, Saxony. April liking
Frederick, Notwithstanding denials, is
endeavoring to obtain from the Pope
the ecclesiastical sanction for divorce
from the Countess Montignoso. in order
to be able to marry again.
This will be possible if the Countess
is willing to declare under oath that
her parents forced her to marry him
while he was in a sonlnolent condition,
which she affirmed after her flight
from the Saxony capital. Lately. how
ever, the Countess refused to swear to
the statement so as to prevent the
King remarrying. 1t is understood
that recently the Pope has been
strongly opposed to the wishes of the
Saxon King and has been comparing
his case with the precedents in which
marriages were dissolved by the church.
The Countess Montignoso was for
merly the Crown Princess Louise, wife
CT Crown Prince Frederick, now King
of Saxony. In 1902 she eloped with
Professor Giron and she has since been
living in Italy.

AT Work Knee Deep in Ashes.

As he came forward to greet the
correspondent his blackened face
and dust-covered clothing told OF the
ordeal through which he had passed.
The portico where he stood was
knee deep in ashes, which had been
swept aside TO make small footway.
From the observatory terrace, to
which narrow paths had been cut
through the ashes, the correspondent
looked out over an ocean of ashes
and twisted rivers of lava, while We
suvius rose grimly in a mantle of
ashes and shrouded dark vapor rising
ike a gigantic fan.
Professor Matteucci was asked to
tell in his own way the story of the
cataclysm from the outset. This he
readily consented to do, and speaking
in good French, gave the following
detailed narrative:
Il first observed Mount Vesuvius
giving unusual signs about a month
ago, when the lava began to over
flow, taking southwest direction.
This gradually increased as several
small lava streams formed into one
great current.
The San Francisco call., 1906-04-15
Great Rent Made in the Cone.

The real danger began the middle
OF last week. Then an enormous
stream of lava came from the summit,
meeting the other streams, which
burst from the lower strata. 1t was
this that overwhelmed Boscotrecaz.
Throughout the lava discharge the
volcano was comparatively quiet and
without electrical phenomena or ex-
plosions. The only ominous sign
was the advancing wave and the Gin
ders forming an enormous cloud in
the shape Of q pine tree over the
crater.
Our really terrible period came at
3 O'Clock on Sunday morning and
lasted until 8 o'clock. The mountain.
which hitherto had been silent. on
Sunday gave out deafening roar and
great rent was made in its cone.
Huge solid rocks were hurled slSv-
ward. Some OF them fell near the
observatory, threatening to crush in
the roof, but most of them fell far
outside the observatory zone. There
was no scoria in this discharge. but
solid, bullet7like stones, which cut
the roof and damaged the windows.

Bald Men Are Scarce

Special Cablegram to The Call and the New

LONDON, April H.-Simultaneously
from two Independent sources comes
striking testimony to the virtues of hair
less heads. 1t is stated, first, that there
are no baldheaded criminals; second, that
there are no baldheaded lunatics
Neither statement Is laid down as ab-
solute or infallible, but it is asserted
that there are just sufficient exceptions
to prove the rule. The authority regard
ing the first statement is ]. T. Riley, q
Magistrate on the Halifax bench. who
said in court that he had met with only
two bald criminals in his twenty-three
years experience
With regard to the second statement
the Rev. H M. Field of Bradford quotes
the head official of the Rains Hill Asy-
lum, who assured him that he would
never need the hospitality of that in
stitution, as he was quite bald
A man who frequently visits Bethlehem
hospital for the insane in an official
capacity said to representative of the
Daily Mail:
MY impression of the 1unatics I meet
here is that they are usually a shaggy
race"
An experienced police inspector bore
out to a great extent Riley-s statement
about the lack of baldheaded criminals,
but he advanced a commonplace explana-
ton.
Criminals" he said, "are a notori-
ously shortlived race. I admit l have

STEAMSHIP TARIFF.
Conference Held At Washington By
 Various officials. .:'.

Washington, Dec 11.-At a confer enoe today between railroads ana steamship representatives and members of the interstate commerce commission the question was raised as to whether steamship lines taking freight from a point In tine United States to point in an adjacent foreign country to be transported to the interior port hay ing a joint arrangement with rau- road is subject to the interstate conn merce law requiring them to give thir- ty days notice before publishing 1olnt or through tariff by way of this route
 Specific incidents were cited in the case of the Pacific coast steamship company carrying merchandise from San Francisco to Victoria, B. C.. thence bv way of the Canadian Pacific to in- terior points in that country and on freight shipped to Mexico.
 MT. J. c. Stubbs of the Union Pacific Company said the Ward Steamship Line carried freight from New York to Mexican ports by way Of Tampico ana the Mexican National Railway, pre- vented successful competition because they can change their tariffs on twen- ty-four hours notice and that the rail- roads of this country delivering goods to the Mexican border must give thir- ty days notice. He sad the railway lines wished to be placed on an equal footing with the stea uship lines m competition in this business.
 It was announced that the Canadian Pacific railroad has volunteered 10 have it's tariffs via steamship limos filed with the commission.
 The question of transportation of theatrical troops under party rates was brought up at the confe ence by g, H. Hardwick, passenger tratic manager of the Southern Railway. MT. Hardwick argued that. lower rates should be glv- en to the theatrical people than those allowed general public. He said 1t IS more convenient to handle them in or ganized form and that if the general public is allowed the same low rates privilege. there fould be a possiblit of ticket brokers making low rates and sending out morgan zed parties, thus causing a loss to the railroads.
