H4rTTAN REVOLT SPREADS.
EcVOlutiOnlsts Threaten Cape HaStleD
Change In Our Naval Plans.

WASHINGTON. Jan 22-Despatches re-
calyed At the State Department to-day indi-
cate that the Haytian revolution Is spreading
from the western TO the northern part OF
Havti A cablegrsm was received from
Consul Livingston at Cape Haytien saying
that the revolutionary forces were In pos
session of the neighboring villages and that
Cape Haytien was threatened.
A despatch was also received at the Navy
Department from Commander MARVEL Of
the gunboat Eagle saying that he had ar
rived at st. Marc and had found the situa-
ton there quiet and satisfactory and had
proceeded 10 Gonaives. st. Marc, accord
ing 10 dispatches received yesterday, had
been retaken by the Government forces
and they are pushing northward along the
west coast of Hayti toward Gonalves IL
ia expected that a conflict may take place
between these two cities.
II was admitted at the State Department
to-day that there was reason to believe that
the present revolution was Matched IN New
York ,OSeUh NJ. Gordani the Haytian
under arrcs- in New York, II was said, was
known to be IN communication with Gen.
Firmin, who left St. Thomas several days
ago and is thought to be on his way TO Hayti
TO take command q the evolutionary
forces. Il is respected that he will attempt to
land either at Gonaives or at Cape Haytien.
The officials OF the State Department
fear that the revolution may extend beyond
the Haytian border and will interfere with
the present customs administration of the
Republic Of Santo Domingo, which Is under
the supervision OF the American Govern
ment II the revolutionists are defeated
in the expected battle with the Government
troops il is certain that they will retreat
over the border into Santo Domingo and
may stir up trouble among malcontents
there.
The Navy Department has changed IL
plans and has decided to send the gunboat
Paducah from New Orleans to Hayti &c
protect American interests instead OF send
ing the cruiser Des Moines, now at New
York. as was announced at the Department
yesterday. The reason for this change 4
that the Paducah at New Orleans Is nearer
to the scene OF the trouble than the De1
Moines and will be able 20 get 70 the HaytiaI
coast several days sooner than II would
be possible for the Des Moines TO make tn.
cruise from New York in. The Paducak
will leave New Orleans to-day or early
tomorrow morning and will probably
arrive in three or four DAYS,

LONDON, Jan. 22--The Great Eastern
Railway Companys steamship Amsterdam
while entering the waterway at Rotterdam
to-day coilided in the fog with the British
steamship Administer. The former had a
big hole torn in her bows and the latter
had her stern smashed.
The Amsterdam transferred her passen-
gers 70 the Administer. Two boats with at
least twenty passengers and several Of the
crew of the Amsterdam disappeared, but
they are probably aboard ons Of the fog
bound feet of the Hook Of Holland.
4 despatch from the Hook Of Holland
cent late tonight states that one OF the
boats containing seven persons was picked
I'D this evening. The other boat Ia variously
stated TO have from a dozen to twenty-seven
persons on board. IL has not yet been
found.
The fog is very heavy. rug and a
lifeboat have searched for the boat in all
directions but found no trace OF it. The
tug was in collision with an unknown vessel
and was so badly damaged that her captain
was compelled 20 beach her 70 prevent her
from sinking.
The sea is calm, but II those missing are
still drifting they must be suffering from
hunger, thirst and the cold weather. The
boat had no supplies Of provisions or water

GULF ISLANDS DISAPPEAR.
Great Changes Reported as Result Ot
Recent Volcanoes.

MEXICO CITY. Jan. ?2.-The meteoro-
logical bureau Of the Federal Government
has been advised that the subteTranean
disturbances which recently took place on
the coast Of Yucatan have caused three
islands TO disappear. These islands were
called Oblspo Norte, Obispo Sur and Cayo
Nuevo. They were Of considerable size
and were well known to navigators OF that
part Of the Mexican coast.
So far as known here there was no per-
manent habitAtion upon any Of the islands.
but at last accounts there we're several
guano camps upon two Of them. Whether
the sudden disappearance OF the islands
caused any loss Of life is not stated in the
report to the Government.
The waters Of the Gulf adjacent TO Yuca
tan and Campeche have been disturbed by
p series Of uplifts and phenomenal demon
strations from below during several
months In places the shore line has been
completely changed. The haTbor at Pro-
greco has had its depth greatly decreased
by a general bulging Of the earth's surface
at that point The masterU and crews Of
vessels recently arriving at Vera Cruz re =
port having passed through a shower OF
ashes while crossing the Gulf Of Campeche.
These phenomena lead to the conclusion that
a volcano is in eruption somewhere in that
region.

PLEA FOR NEW FIRE ALARMS.
Underwriters Find the Present System II
q standing Menace"

The New York Board Of Fire Underwriters,
through its chairman, G. F. Shallcross,
yesterday sent a letter to Commissioner
Lantry Of the Fire Department urging
him 20 ask the Board Of Estimate and
AppOrtionment to appropriate money for
a new system OF fire alarms in Manhattan
in accordance with plans already approved
by the bureaus chief engineer.
Mr.. Shallcross's letter says it is safe TO
say that the appalling conditions Of the
present fire alarm system are somewhat
worse to-day than they were two or three
years ago" The letter continues:
%The extraordinary condition Of the
equipment is a disgrace and a standing
menace to this community. The whole
system is in imminent danger Of break
down, and errors in transmission and
false alarms are Of daily occurrence through
inherent defects There lie no patching UP
which will materially remedy conditions.
Underwriters are living in continual
dread that the good luck which has made
it possible for the Fire Department to be
notified Of fire when a fire alarm box has
failed TO transmit a call will not always
last and that fire will be allowed TO gain
headway causing a loss of millions Of
dollars"

Neither Confirm II.

WAEHNaToN, Jan. 77.-Announcement
was made to-day Of the engagement Of
Miss Msude Ashford, daughter Of the late
MahlOn Ashford, . Warrington lawyer,
and Henry GasaawaH Davis. former Senator
nom West Virginia, who was q candidate
for ViOe-PreEdsnt on the ticket with Alton
B. Parker.
Mrs. Ashford. Mss Ashfords mother,
said that her daughter and herself regretted
that news Of the engagement had become
public prematurely. II was true, how
ever, she said, that her daughter was en-
gagged to Mr.. Davis. No date had been set
for the wedding. Mrs. Ashford added.
The announcement OF the engagement
was due to a rumor that Mr.. Davis had
left the home OF his daughter. Mrs. Arthur
Lee. where he resided. and taken rooms in
hotel because Of opposition TO his mar
riage. When Miss Ashford was told Of
this report she said:
There is no truth in the rumor that my
engagement TO Senator Davis has been
broken. Early denials Of our engagement
were made because Mr.. Davis and l be-
lieved that the public was unduly concerned
over what we thought was a matter of a
personal nature. know nothing Of Sena-
tor Daviss reported troubles with his family
because Of our engagement. He has told
me nothing Of any disturbances. should
there have been any
Miss Ashford said ii was true that Mr..
Davis was living at a hotel and had been
there for several weeks. but he had had
no trouble with Mrs. Lee and she and Mrs.
Lee we're together yesterday. Miss Ash
ford denied a report that Mr. Davis had
stopped family opposition by agreeing to
settle 81 500. 900 on her. Il have never dis
cussed financial matters with Mr. Davis,
she said
Mr.. Davis declined 10 discuss his engage
ment but referred all inquirers to Miss Ash
ford. The venerable ex-senator is 81 years
old. He has lived in Washington since 1871,
when he came here 70 enter the Senate.
One Of his daughters Is Mrs. stephen B.
Elkins. the wife Of the senior Senator from
West Virginia
Miss Ashford has been social secretary to
Mrs. Elkins and Mrs Lee the daughters Of
Mr.. Davis, and for some time covered
society news for a local newspaper. She is
in her thirties. Her brother is Snowden

Jury at the same time. and the detectives
will make every effort to have the men
brought together before that body.
Franz Heible. an employee in Stutz's
pork factory in Williamsburg. caused
Wolfe's arrest. Many citizens in Browns
vile came forward and bailed Wolfe out.
The police secured pictures and records
that seemed to identify Wolfe with an eI-
convict who had served SIX terms in q st.
Louis prison and nine in Chicago. Then
the man was surrendered by his bondsmen
and made a partial confession.
Heible told Police Captain Kuhne that an
effort was being made TO intimidatO him.
Detective Niooli for several days worked
side by side with Heible in the pork packing
establishment. Saturday the complainant
received word to meet man at Park avenue
and Broadway. There 9 man who spoke

Miss Helen Gould has leased the private
dwelling at East Forty-soventh street
to a fashionable ladies' tailor for a term
of Ave years. The house adjoins Miss
GouIds Fifth avenue home. II was ac-
quired some years ago for the express
purpose Of keeping out mercantile OF other
undesirable neighbors. However. the pri-
vate dwelling at East Forty-seventh
street was let recently 10 a well known
modiste. proving the fruitlessness Of further
attempt 10 check the advance of trade.
In the lease by Miss Gould il is stipulated
that the exterior of the house shall remain
as IL is and that only an inconspicuous
sign shall proclaim the nature Of the ten
ants business.
The gap between the Fifth avenue shop
ping section running north from Forty
second street and that extending southward
from Fifty-ninth street il rapidly closing
up. and a large proportion Of the private
residences remaining in the avenue as well
as in the abutting street blocks are to let
for business uses The Gould house is not
now among the number. but If it isn't soon
it will not be through any negligence on
the part OF the enterprising Fifth avenue

TO IGNORE CONVENTION CALL.
SIX DeIeEates 20 Re Elected TO chicago
From Each Territory.

From Each Territory.
WAsHrNoroN, Jan. 12.-The recent report
that the Taft managers are planning 70
ignore the call Of the Republican national
committee by causing the election Of six
delegates instead OF two from each OF the
Territories 10 the Republican national
convention was partially confirmed to-day.
The project has its origin In the belief Of
the Taft men that the delegations Of each
Of the Territories TO the national convention
will be favorab able to the nomination OF the
War Secretary. As all the Territories, or
nearly ell Of them. are regarded as sure for
Taft Il il desired 10 make the delegations
as large as possible.
The call Of the executive committee,
issued last month. prescribed that the num-
ber Of delegates from each Territory should
be reduced TO two. There are seven Terri
tories 20 be represented In the national
convention-Alaska, Arizona, Hawaii, the
Philippines, New Mexico, Porto Rico and
the District Of Columbia; The total
DELEGATE strength from each. II six delegates
were allowed, would be forty-two. but the
call OF tho executive committee reduces
this number 70 fourteen. The Taft man.
ayers think that twenty-eight more dele
gates are worth having and plans are now
making 20 elect ak from each Territory.
Solomon Luna. Republican member OF
the Republican national committee from
New Mexico, called at the White House
to-day with Gov. Curry.

TreAsury's working Cash Balance.

Treasurys working Cash Balance.
WARRINGTON. Jan. 22.-owing to the
marked Improvement in financial and bank
ing conditions throughout the country and
partly to the necessity Of replenishing the
working cash balance Of the Treasury
Secretary COrtelyou has decided 70 make
a withdrawal OF public deposits from de-
pository banks in New York and elsewhere.
amounting in the case Of New York 20
$40, 900 OOo At later date not far distant
a general call will be issued for moderate
Withdrawals from banks holding deposits
OF Federal money in other parts Of the
United States.
Secretary Cortelyou is satisfied that these
Withdrawals will impose no hardship on
the banks and will cause no embarrass-
ment to business or commercial interests.
He has been in Communication with bankers
in all parts of the country during the last
fortnight and from advices received
by him IL is apparent that the money
stringency is a thing Of the past. Cur
rency payments have been resumed in
all the large cities, and although there may
be certain places in which clearing house
certificates form a part OF the circulating
medium this makeshift has been quite gen.
orally abandoned.
The likelihood is tlsat the Withdrawals
in the near future will not amount TO more
than $40, ,oOO, 900 or S25 200 900. The SeCre-
tary's aim will be to call In the Governments
money to a limited extent only for the
present and by such gradual degrees as to
cause no embarrassment in financial circles.
The decision to withdraw deposits to a GER
tain extent Immediately was announced
in a statement made public by Secretary
Cortelyou as follows:
The Secretary of the Treasury to-day
announced that owing to the great i'm
provement in financial conditions through
out the country he had begun the gradual
withdrawal of deposits Of public moneys
in moderate amounts from the national
banks. The flrst call has been made upon
New York banks and amounts TO approx
mately SIC, 900, 900. This is In addition TO
about $40, 900 900 returned by the New York
banks since December 10.
The Secretary also announced that a
general call for a moderate amount will be
made upon banks in other cities at an early
date
