ANARCHISTS DEFY u. ;.

New York, May l3.-As a reply to
the governments intention to formu-
late plan for the deporting of all
anarchists, the Anarchist Federation
of America, of which Alexander
Berckman is one of the leaders, to-
day issued an official manifesto de-
flying the Washington authorities to
act. The manifesto says, among 9TH
er things:
You cannot exterminate anarch-
ism, because ii embodies mans high
est aspirations toward liberty, well
being and the enjoyment of life. For
anarchy does not mean violence; on
the contrary, it wants to do away
with all violence by abolishing pow
erty and government, those eternal
breeders of violence.
"As long as you have hunger they
say you will have crimes and vio-
lence in one form or another. And
as long as you have monopoly of the
necessary instruments of production
you Will have economic slavery, in
dustrial robbery and resultant pow
erty and hunger"

SlU|C|NG DEBRIS
FOR MORE EVIDENCE
No New Developments In Indiana's S
Murder Mystery and Nothing Has
Been Found About the Burned
House to Show Whether Mrs.
Guinness Is Dead or Alive.

La Porte, Ind, May 13.--Unless the
sluicing of the powdered debris taken
from the cellar of the burned Guinness
farmhouse results in startling discov-
cries today, the production of further
tangible evidence in the big murder
mystery is not likely. No further de-
velopments in the case were an
nounced this morning.
Officials are still working about the
place in the hope of uncovering more
bodies or of finding in the ruins Of
the house some evidence that will
establish to a certainty whether Mrs.
Guinness Is dead or alive.
Mrs. Guinness hired man, Ray
Lam mphere, vigorously denied today
that he had made a confession or
promised any to Z. A. Schell or to
anyone else. Lamphere Is under ar
rest, charged with completely in the
wholesale murders disclosed by the
investigation at the Guinness farm,
following the fire which destroyed the
farmhouse. in which Mrs. Guinness
three children are known to have per-
ished Whether Mrs, Guinness was
also burned to death yet remains a
mystery, as no evidence has been re-
vealed to establish that fact.

CITIZENS PROTEST
AGAINST ADDITION

Pennington, N. NJ, May Is.-The
hoard of trade of Pennington has
passed strong resolutions which will
be presented to Governor Curry, to-
gether with request that he present
them to President Roosevelt, In which
they wish the president TO rescind his
order of some months ago by which
the Navajo Indians have had added to
their reservation some 1000. ZOO acres
of land, about half of which is in New
Mexico. d..
The resolutions set forth that there
are already 100000 acres in the
Navajo reservation, including many
acres of good land which the Indians,
1t is said, have not attempted to use,
and Of this amount some 10000
acres are In New. Mexico, mostly in
san Juan county, The resolutions set
forth that this tract is sufficient for
the Indians without further allot-
ments.
The 1000, ,O0O-acre allotment in
cludes 10000 acres along the east
boundary Of San Juan county and
government agents there, 1t is said,
are fOrbidding sheep men from
crossing this land with their herds.
Sheep men have been in the habit Of
crossing this land to reach their sum-
mer ranges ever since white men have
occupied these parts. There are
about 10000 Navajo Indians on the
reservation

Seattle, Wash, May 13.-News of
the greatest disaster that China has
ever known--a sudden tidal bore in
the Yangtse Kiang river. which in
volved the loss of nearly 10000 lives
at Hangow-was brought by the
steamer Titan, which arrived at this
port last night.
According to the report brought by
the Titan the great wave that swept
down the river. taking unawares the
thousands of residents along its banks
and in junks, sampans and small
boats on its surface was twenty-six
feet in height. Without warning the
great wave flooded the river, which
was quickly turned from a peaceful
avenue of commerce into a raging
torrent, filled with the debris of hun
dreds of small craft and the strug-
Cling bodies OF their occupants, all
mingled together In horrible confus-

were wrecked.

NO ANTI-INJUNCT|ON
LAW THIS SESSION
Misrepresentation Has Spoiled the
Chances for One of Presidents
Pet Measures.

Washington, May 13.--PreSident
Roosevelt has given up hope of OBJ
tanning anti-iniunction legislation at
this session of Congress, and Repre-
sentative Townsend of Michigan, who
had been leading the fight in the
House, has abandoned the effort. The
reason for this Is the charges of mis-
representation with reference to the
proposed legislation by both the labor
organization and the Manufacturers
association.
The unions have demanded that a
bill should be passed which would
prevent the issuance of any restrain
ing order against labor organ cations
The Manufacturers associations have
been circulating literature charging
that this was exactly what the advo-
Gates Of the anti-injuuction bin in
tended to do. As a result letters have
been pouring in upon members Of the
House from both sides To the contro-
yersy, both protesting against the
only form Of legislation that was pos
sible. In view of this, Representative
Townsend went To seo the president
today and told him that because OF
misrepresentation and misunderstand-
ing Of the whole purpose Of those who
have Ocen fighting for the anti-in-
junction legislation il will be impos-
sible TO do anything at this session
satisfactory to either tine labor organ
cations OF the employers Of labor.

Hangow and they were enveloped by
the great wave, which swept the
broken junks splintered sampans and
a heterogeneous mass of debris, to-
gether with swarms of drowned Chi
nese, away on its surface.
Other villages along the river were
wrecked and added their inhabitants
to the thousands of bodies floating in
the river.
The scene for many days after the
disaster was horrible in the extreme.
The river side was strewn with dead
bodies and the debris of wrecked
craft for many miles and the surviv-
ors were forced to leave many places
because of the lack OF food and the
stencil from the thousands of bodies
strewing the river banks.
The tidal wave above referred to
had been previously reported by cable
A. dispatch from Shanghai dated April
Is, said that disastrous flood had
occurred on the Yangtse Kiang in
which 1000 lives were lost. The cable
advices did not show the flood to be
as disastrous as does the Seattle dis

THE WILLIAMS BILL
AS AN AMENDMENT
Rules Committee Has Prepared
Procedure and All Time That
Can be Spared viii be Given
to Discussion of the Bill
Fight Is Expected.

Washington, May 13.-The COM
mittee on rules, of the House, will,
this afternoon, bring in a rule for the
passage tomorrow of the Vreeland
currency bill, under suspension Of
rules. The Democrats will be given
an opportunity to offer the Williams
currency bill as an amendment.
All the debate possible within to-
morrow's session, deducting the time
necessary for roll call, will be allow
ed the bill.
Under whip and spur the Repub-
lican leaders in the House expect to
put through the Vreeland currency
bill on Thursday of this week. They
expect to do it in the fact of a prac-
tically solid Democratic opposition
and despite the Republican insur-
gency, and it's leaders, Representa-
tives Fowler, of New York, chairman
of the banking and currency COM
mittee; Prince of Illinois. and Hayes,
of California.
Presuming that every member of
the House will be in his seat and that
all the Democrats will vote against
1t, twenty-nine contrary Republican
votes will defeat the bill. So the
situation as it now is falls within
these lines Mr.. Watson. of Indiana,
as whip of his party, has pledged
every Republican to be in his seat
next Thursday. The insurgent lead
ers claim their total strength was
thirty y-six--the requisite twenty-nine
and seven to spare, and that the
prospects are bright for holding
these three dozen firmly together.
