NO ANTI-JEVISH RXCTSSES
EASTER ANNIVERSARY OF MAS
 SACRES PASSES QUIETLY.

Danger in Russia, However, Will Not
 be All Over Until the Holidays Are
 Gone = Extraordinary Precautions
 Taken by the Central Government
 Governors Told They VIII be Held
 Personally Responsible for Out-
 breaks.
 St. Petersburg, April 15.-The Easter festival, the anniversary of the Jewish massacres at Kishiney and other places, happily was not stained this year, so far as was reported up to midnight, by anti-Jewish excesses. The measures taken by the central government and the orders sent to the provincial au- thorities to take every precauticn, with the added warning that they would be held personally responsible for out breaks, apparently were effective, though the danger will not be over un- til the Easter holidays are passed.
 The high church feast was celebrated to-day in the usual fashion-with much eating and drinking and the exchange of the kiss of peace. Some slackening in the old religious fervor was notice- able, especially in St. Petersburg. This is attributed to the revolutionary prop aganda which, in striking at the roots of the state, touched also the blind de- votion to the church.
 The streets of the capital have been alive since early morning with the cabs of government officials and clerks mak- ing their congratulatory calls on their superiors Minister of the Interior Dur novo, however, published notice to his subordinates stating that 1t was not not necessary for them to call on him, and in the midst of general surprise his retirement from office was not announce ed, but this declination of congratula- tions is regarded as another intimation that his relinquishment of office is a matter of few days.

 Among the further Easter honors an nounced to-day are the following The | Order of Vladimir of the first class is bestowed upon Nicholas de Lodygen- sky, consul-general at New York; the Order of Stanislaus of the second class upon Paul Kozakevitch, consul at San Francisco; the Order of Vladimir of the third class upon M.

27. 3S5 POLICIES LAPsED.
Equitable's Fears ReaIized--small
 Holders the Sufferers.

New York, April 15.-A statement given out tonight by the Equitable Life Assurance society says:
 Investigation shows that the fears engendered by the developments of the year resulted in the lapsing of 27,SSo policies for $1O0O or under, while only one policy for $25O,OOo was allowed to lapse. Of the entire volume of lapsed policies in the Equitable 84 per cent. were for S3,0G0 or less"
 In commenting on the results Of hls efforts to restore the standing of lapsed policyholders President Morton to-day said:
 My belief that the small policyhold- CT was the chief sufferer from the agl- tation and excitement regarding life in- surance is now confirmed. The holders of policies of $5OOO and upwards are generally men of business experience Through fear, based on misapprehen- sion of the real facts, thousands ot small policyholders allowed their poli- cies to lapse"

bration.
 Naples, April 15.--The somewhat threatening condition of Mount Vesu- vius Saturday sight have subsided with the election of enormous clouds of sand and ashes, these elements have begun to settle slowly again enveloping the mountain in a thick haze and cutting off the view from Naplss, only the out line of the base being visible.
 Professor Mateucci director of the Royal observatory on the mountain, to- night issued the following bulletin:
 My instruments are now most calm. The emission of sand continues in less abundant quantities, and I wait serene ly satisfactory termination of the eruption"
 The sudden renewal of alarm Satur- day night gave way to-day to the eele- bration of Easter with unusual fervor. The festival is always picturesque in Naples, but to-day it was doubly so. Cardinal Frisco, archbishop of Naples, celebrated an elaborate thanksgiving mass in the cathedral, while along the streets crowds prostrated themselves before sacred images.
 The gravity of the situation has now shifted to Ottajano and San Giuseppe where the recovery of the dead from the debris goes on amid the misery of thousands of homeless refugees. A sensational development occurred dur ing the work of salvage at Ottajano to- day, when the searchers unearthed two aged women, still alive, but speechless, after their six days entombment They were among the hundreds who were l crushed beneath the falling walls dur l ing the rain of stones and ashes last Sunday and Monday. Hope had been abandoned of finding any of these per- sons alive. The women were protected by the rafters of the house which they were in, and had managed to exist on a few morself of food which they had in their pockets.
 l Nine bodies were taken out to-day and it is estimated that a hundred more remain under the ruins. The work of salvage goes on amid the twisted mass es of fallen houses, churches and sta- bles and in the deep drifts of cinders and ashes. At some points the ashes are ten feet deep, reaching to the win dows of the second stories of the few novels still standing.
 The work of salvage at San Gieu- seppe has brought to light remarka- ble condition. Bodies have been found of women in whose hands were coins and jewels, and one woman held a rosary, indicating the instinct to pre- serve earthly belongings in the moment of fleeing from death. The excavations at Herculaneum, over which the town of Resina stands, have recorded similar instances of death overriding its vic tins carrying their jewels while fleeing | from fba iOVa ding lava,

Buffalo, n. Y, Oct 10.-Susle
Becker, years old, the daughter of
Fred Becker, is believed to be in the
hands OF kidnapers. Yesterday after
noon while Susie and her brother
were on Main street, about a block
from their home, the girl was ap-
preached by q woman who asked her
to go for a walk. The child readily
accompanied the woman, expecting
the usual reward of candy. At sup
per time, when the parents discov-
cred that Susie was missing, the po-
lice were notified. The only descrip-
ton the lad could give OF the strange
woman was that she was dressed In
gray.
