SAINTED QUEENS GRAVE
Romantic Search to Be Made in Elv
Cathedral.

SUecidI taDleEram TO The Star
LONDON. October ia romantic search
for the body of a sainted queen and the
marvelously rich shrine in which it was
inclosed Is about to be instituted in the
hoary cathedral of Ely. Nearly five hun
dred years ago. when Henry VIII suppress
ed the monasteries and issued an edct for
the removal of all relics, images and
shrines, Ely Cathedral possessed VEN
Grated relic of great value in the Jewell
bedecked shrine of ST. Etheldreda the
virgin queen. The shrine mysteriously dis
appeared. and. Notwithstanding all their
exertions, the kings men were unable to
recover it. From that day to this no one
has seen the relic.
Tradition had it that the shrine had been
placed in some cunningly devised hiding
place within the cathedral. and from time
to time search has been made for it, Walls
have been tapped, the floor has been dug
up and numerous likely places have been
thoroughly explored, but disappointment
has always attended these efforts.
Now a further attempt is to be made,
and the dean. DR.. Stubs, hopes that it
will be successful. At the southwest cor
ner, in the two angles of the facade, are
two octagonal towers with circular stair
case in each: but while in the west tower
the staircase goes from top to bottom in
the east the staircase extends only from
the top to the first floor. Below this is ap-
tured that the shrine may be hidden here.
The shrine was covered with rich gems,
and the silver reliquary blazed with pearls,
onyx, beryl, amethyst and other stones.
The corpse Of the sainted queen was placed
in a sarcophagus of white marble.

CALCUTTA. October 13.-The Calcutta
Englishman publishes a remarkable cir

following extracts: Golden Bengal-Fifty

The reply of the Allahabad Pioneer to

Capt Wyrill of the London Missionary
Society's steam yacht John Williams,
which returned here yesterday after a
long cruise in the South Seas, reports hav-

phenomenon at Matautu in the island of

The volcano on the island is emitting
great streams of lava, which flow down a
once fertile valley eight miles to the sea.
AS the red-hot lava reaches the water
tremendous explosions take place, the lava
being blown up to an immense height.
Great columns of steam arise and vol
canic dust is showered for a great distance
around. The spectacle is one of marvellous
grandeur

Specific Action Necessary.

The general sentiment being well de-
fined. but no specific action agreed upon,
the question which naturally presents itself
in the Greater Washington movement is:
What shall be the next specific step follow
ing The Stars initial step?
1T seems 10 me that this is the question
which now presents itself to US, and tina
the quicker we arrive at a determination
the better. In many cities. especially on
the Pacific coast. there are regularly estab-
lshed boom or Information bureaus, with
salaried staffs and the amount Of city ad-
vertising and information dissemination
which they have turned out has been aston
ishing. as have been the beneficial results

"As in all movements of this Kind there
are some men who take an active personal

while in sympathy with the sentiment it is
sought TO foster. take only "A passive inter-
est. We have to rely upon the first for ac-

1t all goes toward the Ultimate success.
Now that The Stars special train has
really been dispatched and has returned
with its mission fulfilled. it behooveS us to
follow it up with some further tangible
proof that we really do mean BUSINESS. and
were an executive committee selected for
such purpose. it would not be long before
other and equally euectiVe methods in
other lines would suggest themselves for
action.

urged this fol ow-uD action. but that no

along such line as this will not prove of
much value. but that specific action and

to follow up the advantage gained us by
The Stars special, an executive committee
such as | suggest could digest this general
sentiment into something specific.

Eight Months Spent in Trying to Get Insurgents Out of Mountain Dispatches About Killing of

Washington, March 9.-Secretary Taft has received two telegrams from Major General Wood at Manila relat- ing to the Mount Dajo fight. The first one is as follows:
 If more detailed information con- cerning the facts connected with the fight is desired, suggest that Major Hugh L. Scott be called upon. He is thoroughly familiar with the sit uation, having spent eight months in the attempts to get these people off the mountain without fighting. Ma jor Scott has been summoned to Washington to answer Secretary Taft and is at present in Washington"
 The second dispatch is as follows
 Sensational cables to the United States relating to the fight were made up in Manila. There has been no report of any cable from Minda- mao about the killing of women and children. On receipt of Colonel An drews' report, sent by me to Wash ington, the American newspapers ca- bled for details. The reporters here had no other information than was cabled in my report and they sup piled the sensational details"

JUMPED FROM A
 FERRY INTO RIVER
UNKNOWN MAN LEFT HIS DERBY
 HAT BEHIND HIM.
Part of Sweat Band Bearing Makers Name Was Torn-The Man Had Just Given a Beggar
 All His Change.

New York, March 19.-Mystery which may not be unraveled even when the body is recovered from the Hudson river, surrounds the suicide of an unknown man who Jumped from Pennsylvania railroad ferry boat early to-day. The only thing which the man left behind was a derby hat which he threw upon the deck of the ferry boat just before he sprang to his death The hat bore no marks which would assist in iden- tifying it's owner. A portion of the sweat band. which may have bore the suicides initials, had been torn out and the tag bearing the makers name also had been removed.
 Persons who noticed the man on the dock while waiting for the boat and who also saw him leap into the river described him as about middle aged and say that he was unusually well dressed. Their attention first was drawn to him when, in response to plea from beggar, the man emptied his pocket of change. When the boat reached mid-stream the man sprang directly in front of the boat.

THE DEAD ANARCHIST.
Emma Goldman Talked of Him al
 Yesterdays Meeting.

New York, March 19.-Johann J. Most, the anarchist leader, who died on Saturday in Cincinnati, was plac- ed on the highest pedestal in the gift of anarchy yesterday at meet ing of the international propaganda groups.
 Emma Goldman presided, and in fiery speech aroused the meeting to an unusual pitch of enthusiasm. Her speech was followed by others equal- ly as fiery and enthusiastic.
 M: Ehguelich, the groups" philos- opher and worker, delivered what was regarded as Most's eulogy. Au- gust Lott, who is said to be slated to succeed Most as the chieftain, also spoKe in glowing terms.
 Resolutions were adopted that Most's body should be brought to this city at any cost. Later in the day a telegram was received from the group" in Cincinnati saying that the authorities advised against removing the body.
 Following out Most's command, it was announced, the body would be cremated in Cincinnati. The ashes will be brought to this city probably on Thursday. The meeting decided that every member of the organiza- tion, which numbers ten thousand. should meet the ashes at the Grand Central station and convey them with great solemnity to the head quarters at No 325 East 75th street, where anarchistic rites will be held.

RUSSIAN ELECTION
THE RADICAL ELEMENT IS FIX.
 GUIDED FROM IT.
Fragrant Cases of Terrorism Are
 Cited ill Many of the Coun- try Districts,

St Petersburg, March 19.-As the elections proceed there is more and more evidence of the virtual exclu- sion from participation of the radi- cal elements of the population. The preliminary stages of the elections will rob the national assembly of much of it's national character. It's authority to speak will be absolute ly denied by the proletariat organi- cations which bore the brunt of the fight for liberty. Complaints of in- reference and duress in the coun- try districts are increasing. Many fragrant instances are cited of the terrorism of local officials in pre- venting free expression of the peas ants and often practically compelling the selection of priests and village elders. The seeming apathy of the small landowners assemblies, to which an average of Sonly 'ten per cent of the voters were present, is explainable by the feeling that they were not free to choose. The most serious phase of the situation, how ever, is the attitude of the workmen III lllc CltlCS WuO SouStitutC cally the most developed and most radical faction of the masses of the population. In spite of repression, wholesale arrests and frequently the exile of their leaders since the strike disorders, many workmen are in- clined to reject the advice of the so- cialists to boycott the elections. The authorities instead of taking advan- tage of this sentiment and inducing the workmen as a class to partici- pate, have with fatuous blindness openly discouraged their participa- tion where the radical elements are in the majority, thus deliberately playing the game of the boycotters and driving the whole working class nto revolt. This was apparent at the workmen's elections in St Petersburg yesterday. Carefully collected infor- nation from the outlying industrial districts to-day shows that the cleo tions were complete farce.

BRICKMAKERS WILL STRIKE UN-

Boatmen Are Mixed Up in This Labor War Also-May Affect New
 York Building Business.

New York, March 19.-A general strike is threatened in all the brick yards along the Hudson on account of demands which have been made by the brickmakers, boatmen and others who have recently been organ ized, for recognition of the union and higher wages. The storm center is at Haverstraw.
 The Central Federated union yes terday decided to write to the brick yard owners and boat owners along the Hudson that unless they con sented to a conference with the men on or before March 25 more aggres- sive measures would be taken. This, it was explained, means that the unions in New York in the building trades will be asked not to handle the brick until the demands are granted.
