A SMILING
 CONFIDENCE Succeeds ApprehenSiOnS of
 NedpOlitanS
Director natteucCi Sends a Pleasing Report From ObserVatOry--Thanks- giving at GOod Friday Services.

Naples, April 13.-No better evil dence of the improved condition of af- fairs in the section affected by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius can be presented than the following telegram from Director Matteucci sent this eve ming from the observatory on the side of the volcano:
 Last night and today the activity of Nesuvius and the agitation at the surface of the volcano sensibly dimin- ished. Electric discharges ceased to- day and the discharge was less abun- dant. From the presumed formation of the crater and other indications. and if the news coming to me is true. of the cessation of lava at Boscotrecase, l predict with reserve that within two or three days the volcanic calm will reign"
 The publication of this assuring dis patch has brought joy to the people, and tonight's good Friday services at the churches which were attended by large congregations. took the form of ferVent thanksgiving for dangers past.
 Conditions at Naples were so mucn better today that the people were all most credulous of the tales of terror told by those who have scaped from the town, villages and country farther within the zone of devastat ation. The weather was fine and the wind had shifted so that clouds of ashes from the volcano instead of envel- oping Naples, were carried in the di- rection of Caserta The apprehensions of the pOpulace gave place to a smiI- ing confidence in which there was no reflection of the terror which had pre- vailed for the past week. But in other quarters there is no escaping from the awful evidence of the volcano.
 After the last great eruption which occurred in 1872. the land covered by cinders did not produce crops for seven years, and the losses in this respect alone averaged S2O.O0O,OOO yearly It is believed that it will take ten years to bring the land under cultivation again.

AN ESTIMATE OF
 THE PRESIDENT
His Worthiness From Standpoint of
 "Gum Shoe BilT'.

Kansas City, Mo, April 13.-Five
 hundred Missouri democrats attended a banquet at the Midland hotel in this city tonight given by the Missouri state democratic press association to commemorate the birthday anniver- sary of Thos. Jefferson. Of this num- Der 150 were editors of Missouri news papers and the remainder were prom inent democrats from various parts of the state.
 The principal speakers were Cover nor Jos. W. Folk. United States Sana-
 tor Wm. J. Stone and Congressman Chas. A. TOwne of New York. Ad- dresses were also delivered by Chas.
 w. Knapp of the St Louis Republic, Judge Wm. Evans, chairman of the democratic state committee; Col. Fred w. Fleming of Kansas City and sev- eral others who responded to requests for imprOmptu speeches. F. w. Stephens, president of the association and editor of the Herald at Columbia, Mo-, acted as toastmaster.
 In closing his address. Senator Stone said: Enough has been said in all reason to show that Theodore RoOsevelt's administration of his great office is not such as should inspire democratic adulation. Although Ob- trusive, audacious and spectacular, his career, as l view it, has been signal ized by weakness, not strength; by vacillation, not steadfastness; by vain glory, not solid worth. For whatever he may do that is right give credit. I am neither for him nor against him; 1 simply take him for what he is. I will support him when he is right but I shall not court him with blandish- ments. nor swell his vanity by blow ing upon him the incense of flattery. 1 am a democrat and under the ban her of that grand old party I am con tent to stay. And so let us all stand here in Missouri"

SUBIATE CONFESSFS
 GUILT OF CASTRO
But He Himself is as Innocent as
 Babes yet to be Born.

Deputy Sheriff Cunningham return ed yesterday morning from Silver Bell. with Ysabell Subiate, charged with forgery. Subiate and Isdro Castro a few days ago offered a check for s7s to Selim Acllel in payment for some goods. It was accepted and the bal ance of the amount of the check was given to the men. The check had been made payable to w. T. Martin. MT. Ackel learned the next day that he had been made the victim of forgery
 Both Subiate and Castro had then left town and for a short time no clue could be secured to the direction they might have gone They were heard of in different parts of the territory but nothing definite was learned until word was received at the office of the sheriff that Subiate had been caught at Silver Bell.
 The whole crime was admitted by Subiate, but as usual. he had nothing to do with the transaction. He only happened to be along when Castro negotiated the check and did not really know that there was really anything wrong until after 1t was all over He regrets it very mucn and hopes that the arch sinner Castro may be caught and properly punished.
 On account of the absence of AckaI from the city yesterday, nothing was done, but Subiate will be arlaIgn,-d before Justice Burnett this morning.

 We are nearer a peaceful solution of this question tonight than we nave been at any time.

Delay Will be in Intersst Of Sigma tory Powers and a Favor to Other Nations.

Washington. April I3.-An import ant step toward the agreement upon a date for the assembling Of the sec- ond Hague conference was made to- day when Secretary Root informed the Russian government that the con venience of the United States vr-uII be served by the selection of any date later than Sept 2o next This da-e was mentioned because it was caIc-lIat- ed that it would mark the conclusion of the Pan American conference aE Rio and make it within the ability of the delegates in attendance there te reach The Hague in case they were charged to represent their gove-u- ments in both instances
 Great satisfaction is expressed at the readiness witt which the. Russian government accompanied the suEEes- ton from the state department for the designation of later date th1n July for the conference at The Hague.
 An important objection to an i-nu1-- diate convention was connected with the proposed representation Of the south and central American statcs iu conference The states found. upon an inspection of the invitation Go the conference that they would not enter al once upon an equality with those that had signed the original Hague treaty. no steps having been taken ta give effect to article TX of The Hague convention. which reads
 "The conditions upon which the powers which were not represented af the first international conference can adhere to the present convention shan form the subject of subSe4uent agreement among the cont-acrins powers"
 The South and Central American states invited to the second coufrrrnt- make it a condition of attendance that the signatOrv powers of the first s-sr- ventiOn shall give effect to thc artisl.. quoted before the second meeting All of this will consume some time. and probably the coming summer wiu D. consumed before lhis can he cn-nr-----L

Washington, April 13.-Speaker Cannon was distinctly in his element today when every indication pointed to a clash between MT. Dalzen of Penn sylvania and MT. Williams of Missis- sippi over the use of certain sentences in a speech made by Mir Hopkins of Kentucky. Immediately after the journal had been read the house plunged into the consideration of a resolution offered by MT. Gardner Of Massachusetts to have expunged from the record certain remarks reflecting upon the integrity of MT. Bennett of New York
 Acrimonious words were general. The debate grew in intensity of ex- pression. and the minority leader, MT. Williams had severely impugned the motives of MT. Bennett, who had se- cured the passage of a joint resoIu- uon some days ago waiVing the immi- grafton laws in the case of an idiot Finally MT. Dalzell was drawn into the discussion and there seemed inn minent a clash between the Pennsyl- vanian and the Mississippian when Speaker Cannon ordered both gentle men to their seats and directed that the unparliamentary language used by Mr. Dalzell and MT. Williams be strick- en from the record. as both gentlemen were speaking out of order. The re- solution was finally passed.
 The pOstoffice appropriation bill was completed during the day. after a roll call on the southern fast mail sub sidy that provision was retained in the bill
