SALARY INCREASES OPPOSED.
Amendment to Appropriation Bill
Stirs Up the Senate.

Washington, Jan. 16.-An amend
ment in the legislative, executive and
judicial appropriation bill increasing
the salary of the president to 100000,
of the vice-president and speaker of
the house of representatives to $780,
600, with $4,000 additional allowance
for carriages and coachmen for the
vice-president and speaker, and in
creases for the judiciary aggregating
$328,500, precipitated a lively discus
sion in the senate yesterday.
Senator Borah of Idaho made
point Of order against these increases
on the ground that they involve gen.
eral legislation, which, according to
the rules of the senate, cannot be
placed on an appropriation bill in
face of a single objection. The debate
centered upon the first Of the amend
ments objected to, which was to in
crease the salary of the speaker of the
house of representatives, and various
criticisms were called forth against
such extensive advance of salaries,
although many senators without OPP
posing some increase insisted that it
should be considered in separate bill
and not on one of the great supply
measures of the government.

ST. AGATHA ON MOUNT ETHA
PoPULAcE OF cATANlA GREATLY
EXCITED BY VISION.
Believe She Saved Their Country from
Quake-Duke Pompeo Litta's
Colony Plan.

Catania, Jan. 16.-For two days the
state of great excitement over re-
port that an apparition of st. Agatha,
the protectress of the town, had been
seen on the summit of Mount Etna.
Those who say they saw the spectre
declare that the vision seemed to them
like an angelic dream" St Agatha
being enveloped in thin vaporous
dazzling light, while her right hand
was extended as though in sign of
benediction and protection over Ca
tania. Because of these reports the
belief has spread among the simple
folk that Catania was saved from the
earthquake only through the interces-
sion of st. Agatha.
Reggie, Jan. ia child of five
years was taken from the ruins of

ton from which the cries came AS
he worked wall fell and he was seri-
ously injured, but he continued his
task until he had rescued the impris-
oned child.
Paris, Jan. 16.-Some details were
given yesterday by Duke Pompeo Litta
concerning his offer to donate por-
ton of an extensive tract of land in
Manatee county, Florida to victims of
the earthquake in Calabria and Sicily
He said the land was owned by a
syndicate of which he was the head
and of which his brother-in-law J.
Lamb Perry of Charleston, 8. c., was a
member He had planned to work out
in Florida scheme along the lines of
his colony in Lombardy, where he had
distributed land directly to peasants
and shared with them the revenues de-
rived from it's cultivation
In Florida, the duke said, the Italians
would be given five acres of land in
their own right, but would be asked
to develop second farm for the bene-
fit of the syndicate, receiving, how
ever, wages in payment for the work
done upOO tho 1aftar

Rarely in any court of law has such

Juror Boenig held out until the final

Captain May Not Be Tried.
Officials of the district attorneys Of

saying that the verdict in this case
probably means that Capt. Hams will
never be brought to trial and that he
will be surrendered into the care of
his family or the federal government.
Under this verdict it is perfectly

STRIKE or HAT MAKERS IS on
MOVEMENT MAY INVOLVE ABOUT
$4,000 WORKERS.
Results from Decision of Associated
Hat Manufacturers to Discontinue
Use of Union Label.

New York, Jan. ia general strike
$4,000 workers was inaugurated in the
hat manufacturing centers of the coun-
try yesterday as the result Of deci-
cision of the Associated Hat Manufac-
turers to discontinue the use of the
union label in the factories represent
ed in the association
Reports from various places re-
ceived here last night indicate that
the hatters in this vicinity, including
those in the factories in New York,
New Jersey and Connecticut, have gen
orally obeyed the order to strike.
There were no signs of disorder any
where, the hat makers peacefully re-
firing from the factories when the or
der to quit work was received.
The manufacturers, in explaining
their o~der to discard the union label,
said it was the result of the failure
of the union to keep working agree
ment with the Guyer Hat Company Of
Philadelphia. Their action to discon-
tinue the label, they declared, was
unanimous
The leaders Of the hatters, on the
other hand, claim that the step was
only the first in an organized and
general plan of employers in all lines
to do away with the union label and
that union labor was prepared to com
bat it. A conference Of representa-
tives of labor unions using labels is to
be called by the American Federation
of Labor to consider the matter, it was
declared, and large gum of money
has been appropriated to carry on the
fight
The manufacturers have called a
meeting to be held here tomorrow to
consider the situation.
Danbury, Conn, Jan. 16.-Except for
the unusually large crowds of men on
the streets there was nothing to indi
cate that the employees of 26 of Dan
bury's hat manufactures, which are
operated by members of the Associated
Hat Manufacturers, left their places in
protest against the action of the manu-
facturers in disallowing further use OF
the union labels in the hats made by
them. In this city and in Bethel be-
tween $500 and 1000 men and women
are out, while the total of idle union
hatters in Connecticut is close to 5000
