BLACK HAND THREAT.

In letter signed "Black Hand, {"
and addressed to Commander Brauns-
reuter-, in charge Of the United States
naval magazine at Iona Island, the
threat has been made that the enormous
stores of smokeless powder on the island
will be blown up unless the married
men discharged from employment on the
island January /, 1908, be put back to
work at once. There are 5000, 900
pounds Of smokeless powder and other
explosives stored In the numerous mag
azines.
The guards at the island have orders
to shoot on sight anyone found prowling
on the island.
January between 80 and 40 men
civilians who had been employed on the
islsnd-were discharged, owing TO delay
IL forwarding funds from Washington to
continue work. This delay was looked
upon as temporary, and it was under.
stood the men would be taken back as
soon as the money arrived Among the
men discharged, most of whom were
lsborers, were a number Of Italians and
Siciisns.
Since the receipt Of the letter every
to the isl0ud has been guarded
carefully by marines night and day, and
the civilians employed have been kept
under the stric.est surveillance.
Iona Island is 40 miles up the Hudson
river from New York and seven miles
south Of West Point. II contains lie
acres, and is separated from the west
shore only by a small stream known as
Doolittle creek. The West Shore Rail-
way has a right of way along the west
ern skirt Of the Island.
The channel for big boats in the Hud-
son runs so close to the eastern side of
the island that bomb might easily be
thrown from deck to shore.

member of the Italian chamber Of com =
merce, and thirty-second degree Mason,
died within few moments after he WAS
found early yesterday in the Office of bis
warehouse, in West Broadway, with his
skulIfractured and suffering from the
effects of poison.
His death is shrouded in mystery, sc-
cording to the police, who are working
on The theory that a murder has been
committed.
Coroner, Hamburger declared last night
that Celia was struck down by a ham,
mer blow on the head, and thai his as
sailants later poured liquid poison down
the throat, presumably to give an sp-
pearsnce o! suicide. 4 letter signed
with Cella's name, bidding gOod-by to
hisfsmily, was found, and the coroner
says he believes the ssssiants forced
Celis TO wri:e the letter under threat of
desih.
Celia was discovered by Domenico
Gala, his brother, who has been detained
as a suspicious person. Caesar Blanchi,
a stcpson Of Celia, is also held as a
material witness.

The Fleet.

Lims. Peru, Feb. "a The United
States battleship feet resumed coalirg
todsy>~after a rest over Washington's
birthday and Sunday. The work is pro-
qrs,in9 briskly and It Is expected all
bunkers will be illed by tonight.
The task Of fdeling has curtailed the
number of shore leaves for the men, and
the hsrbor fairly swarms with snall
craft loaded With officers and curious ex-
cursionis!s.
Here, as at all other ports the hset has
visited, the conduct of the men ashore
has been above criticism. Though 8, 900
wandered through the streets Of lima
sud Osllao yesterday there was hardly
the sligo of a Misunderstanding with pso-
pie and numerous have been the COM
plimegts bestowed OIL the visitors by the
Peruvian authorities. While the Ameri.
can officers agree that they are glad no
heavy fogs interfsred with the squadron's
navigation of Magellan Strait, as they
did With that of the collier Ask, which
followed The battleships through and ar
rived here yesterday, they say they guess
the fighting vessels would have accom-
plshed the trip without serious mishsps,
anyway. Nevertheless it is conceded
that the western reaches Of the strait are
quite bad enough under the most favor
able circumstances and that the limited
accommodations of Bora and lamar
bays, where the Ajax anchored twice,
would have been altogether inadequate
for the sixteen big war vessels.
President Pardo's visit to the flagship
yesterday and the reception accorded him
by the officers aboard has been the
feature of the stay at Osllao thus far.

TO Stop INVESTIGATIONS.

1t is reported that a conference was
held 10 Richmond Saturday night be-
tween Governor Swanson, members Of
the legislature, and men prominent 10
railway affairs with reference to the 10
troduction of measure ia the legsla-
ture, the object of which will be to
prevent a further investigation of the
railroads operating in this State until
the present financial depression is a
thing OF the past Official figures &C.

hat 10 round numbers Z, 900 men have
hem discharged over the entire sys,em
of the Norfolk aud Western RNiro vi
since December 1, four-fifths of whom
we're en- the Virginia Division. The
Virginia Iron and Bfidge Works, OF
Roanoke. have cut of abont 800 en-
ployes 10 Roanoke during the same
period, aud the business men in Roa-
noke are estimated to have done away
With an aggregate Of 500 clerks aud help
era.
The West End Furnace, of Roanoke,
hes discharged about 100 men. Statis-
tics such as these, which we're gathered
in Roanoke Saturday, were secured
in all parts OF the State and from other
large roads and industries, and every de-
gree of pressure that can be had Is being
brought 10 bear on those In high places
10 Richmond to secure their Endorsement
of the proposed preventive measure.
The reason given for this step Is that the
investigation is killing the business Of
the country, and that if it Is prosecuted
further at this critical time It will mean
that other men will ultimately lose
employment in the near future because
of the decrease in business.
The conference that was to have been
held between the executive officials Of
the Seaboard Air Line Railway, 10
Norfolk, this week to discuss the matter
of the reduction of wages contemplated
by the receivers has been postponed
