SlclLlANS IN PANIC.

Stromboli and Etna Sending Forth
 Destruction and Causing Terror.
 MESSINA, Sicily, May 10. = The eruption of Mount Stromboll, the vol cano on Stromboli island, in the Liparl group, is more violent, and apprehen- sion is growing.
 The violence of the present disturb ance Is declared to be without prece- dent even the oldest inhabitants of the Lipari islands not remembering such a threatening condition. Almost all the people of Stromboli island have made their escape. Ashes from the volcano have destroyed everything on the is- land.
 The detonations are heard at all tho other islands of the group, Panaria, Salina, Filicudi, Alicudi and Lipari itself, with remarkable distinctness and produce an effect of terrific roar. ing. Fears are held that the entire is- land of StromboD may be shattered and engulfed.
 At the same time the activity of Mount Etna, on the eastern coast of Sicily, has increased. The column of smoke rolling out of the crater serves to reflect the fire within. and the il- luminated smoke clouds can be seen from Catania, Taormina and even from the strait of Messina.
 The people living in the vicinity of Mount Etna are panic stricken. They are fiocking to the churches to pray for the intercession and protection of the Virgin and their patron saints.

Several Serious Clashes With Non- union Strike Breakers-Ocean Lin- ers' Freight Traffic severe-

ers' Freight Traffic severe-
 ly Crippled.
 NEW YORK, May 1O.-On the heels of the worst riot that has yet marked the strike here of 3O,00O longshoremen the men who are out gained their big gest victory when the Savannah line, the largest of the coastwise companies, capitulated. All of the coastwise lines have practically reached an agreement with the men, but the transatlantic lines are standing fast. It was the at. tempt of one of these, the White Star, to place 15O strike breakers upon its docks from the land side that brought on an attack by 300 of the stevedores.
 Many Italian strike breakers were knocked out in the fight at the White Star pier. A great crowd of sullen faced strikers had been lining the east side of West street, facing the wharfs. In front of the groggeries they were gathered in such number that they blocked the sidewalks. Suddenly picket down the street shouted a warn ing. He had seen two street cars con- ing, both of them loaded with strike breakers
 In an instant the longshoremen were leveling several handy piles of granite paving blocks. With their arms full of the heavy blocks they charged the two cars, whooping. The strike breakers were just disembarking in front of tho docks. Two private detectives from an employment agency who had them in charge were trying to keep them in some sort of order.
 But at the sight of the oncoming strikers the scared Sicillans milled to- gether like sheep, trying vainly to dodge the big, sharp cornered cubi. forms of granite that began to hurtlc about their heads.
 The police soon jumped into the mass of strikers with their nightsticks, swinging on heads and arms and shoul- ders.
 For five minutes the strikers held their own, although there were no longer any victims for their granite target practice. Then they broke and scurried into the side streets, with the police following and scattering them.
 Two Italian strike breakers were set upon at West Twenty-third street and Eleventh avenue and beaten into un- consciousness. It is thought one of them will die. Two strikers who were shot were taken away and concealed from the police by their friends.
 After meeting called by the strik- CTS it was announced that the union had received contributions amounting to $15,000 to carry on the fight It was decided to increase the original de- mands of the men and that now they would not be satisfied with less than 70 cents an hour for day work and 60 cents an hour for night work. At the lime the men went out on strike they were getting 25 cents an hour for day work and 30 cents an hour for night work.

CLORIFIER'S PRIZE
Metropolitan Handicap Opens
 Belmont Park Track.
DESpISED OUTSIDER FOOLS SPORTS

 ben, Came In Third.

NEW YORK, May 10.-The Metro politan handicap was run at the open ing of Belmont park, and one more victory was marked up to the credit of J. H. McCormick's horse Glorifier.
 Okenite, an added starter at the last hour, finished close second, and Rose ben, the public's choice, on whose chances vast sums were wagered, was third. The time was 1:40 4-5, over mile course deep with mud. Jockey Garner rode the winner and handled his mount with rare good judgment.
 In spite of the fact that Glorifier had won the Carter handicap at Aqueduct and ran second in the Excelsior at Jamaica two weeks later, he was an almost despised outsider in the betting, opening at to and closing at 20.
 In spite of poor weather conditions probably 25000 persons saw the fif- teen thoroughbreds splash through a mile of mud for the $10,0O0 Metropolis tan prize.
 The big race was started on the op- RuoltC 0ldc Ol llS DIOdu SlCCn lAACtu, with drifting haze. making clear view almost impossible, and the field of fifteen was a mere herd of strug- gling, splashing horses until the first turn was rounded. Here the crowd caught up the various colors as 1t strained to locate it's respective choices. It saw Sewell, Bat Master son, Nealon, Superman, Roseben and J. c. Core running in the front posi- tions, with Glorifer, Okenite and Disha- billie leading the others and impra1-ing their positions with every stride.
 As the field rounded into the long stretch Sewell ran to the outside of the track and lost all chance of winning. Roseben crept up into second position, and there was the old familiar shout, "Roseben wins. For brief moment the big bay flashed into the lead, but was forced to relinquish that position at the seven-eighths' pole to Glorifier, who brought up on the rail by Garner, was running without effort and grad ually widening the breach.
 Jockey Martin drew his whip on Roseben, and for a few strides the big horse responded and regained some of his lost advantage. He was at the end of his best distance, however, and Glo- rifier, without the use of whip or spur, came under the wire a length and | half in the lead. Okenite, coming with | a belated but resolute rush, passed the tiring Roseben in the last fifty yards | and took second place by two lengths. | Nealon ran into fourth place, four lengths behind Roseben, with the oth- CTS strung out, It was a bad day for fayorites, but one finishing in front.
