waited upon the table and persuaded
his host to allow her to enter his en-
ploy. This she did and for short
time held the position Of cook in Sir
Henry's household. Then he made her

U. S. WARSHIP THREATENS
, TO FIRE ON MADRIZ' MEN
Attempt to Halt American Ships
Will Cause Trouble

BLUEFIELDS. June 7.-"At the
first shot fired against the American
flag or an American vessel, will level
the bluff"
This is the reply made today by
Commander Harold K. Hines, COM
manding the American gunboat Du-
buque, to a threat made by Gen.
RiVias of the Madriz forces holding
Bluefields bluff to stop any vessel en-
tering the harbor.
Gen. RiViaS practically defied the
United States, declaring he would dis
regard the proclamation issued from
Washington on May 81, to the effect
that the United States denied the right
of either faction to seize American
property without consent of and rec
ompense to the owners.
He warned Commander Hines that
he would prevent, by force, regard
less of any flag, any vessel from enter
ing the harbor.
In response to this the American
commander sent to him the above mes
sage, which would mean the annihila-
tion of the handful of Madriz troops
now remaining in this neighborhood.
A critical situation has thus arisen
which may involve the United States,
but the American officers here are of
the opinion that Gen. Rivias will not
attempt to make good his threat in an
effort to collect customs duties.
There are constant rumors of threats
against the life of Thomas p Moffat,
the American consul general here.

GUESTS At 4 RECITAL
ROBBED BY SNEAK THIEF
Crook Enters Cloak Room at the
Gamut Club and Steals
$4O0 in Articles

While an audience of 800 persons
were listening to the recital of the
pupils of the Won Stein Musical acad-
emy in the fashionable Gamut club
rooms, 1O44 South Hope street, last
night sneak thief entered the dress
ing rooms and pillaged the clothing.
obtaining a valuable cloak, purses and
jewelry estimated at a value of $400.
That the thief was frightened away
before he had completed his work was
evident, for many articles of value
were overlooked and number OF
cloaks in the dressing room had not
been disturbed.
The only possible means of gaining
entrance without attracting attention
was through a side door leading from
the stage entrance.
When the performance ended and
the pupils went to obtain their street
clothes they were surprised at the con-
fusion. 1t needed but a glance to
show that a bold attempt at robbery
had been made and was partially sue
ceSSful.
Miss Blanche Shelton noticed that
her cloak valued at 500 was missing
and Miss R. Rusakoss and Miss
Loretta Payson found their cloaks on
the floor and their purses gone. A sill
yer mesh purse containing money was
taken from Miss Payson and the purse
of Miss Rusakoss was found in a cor
ner of the room with the contents
missing. Other minor losses were re-
ported.
No clew to the sneak thief was found
by detectives who were detailed on the
case.

HAVOC is CREATED IN
PROVINCE OF AVELLIN0

AVELLINO, Italy, June IAN earth
quake, characterized by one severe ana
several minor shocks, which occurred
shortly after 4 o'clock this morning
wrought great havoc throughout the
province of Avellino. The entire re-
gion, extending for a radius of fifty
miles, was thrown into panic.
While the city of Avelllino practical
ly escaped damage, the town of Calitri,
some thirty-fiYe miles distant, suffered
severely.
Reports received here indicate that
half of the buildings in Calitri have
been wrecked. The number killed there
is estimated at from forty-five to fifty,
while scores have been seriously in
jured.
From many other towns and villages
came stories of fallen homes, death
and suffering. At San Sole, in the
province of PotenZa, six persons were
killed and five injured. The convicts In
the prison at San Brevento became
panic stricken and tried to force their
way past the guards, but were over
powered by troops.
King Victor Emmanuel and Queen
Helena arrived here at 10 o'clock to-
night, but spent the night on the train.
Tonight the people of Avellino, al
though somewhat reassured by the fact
that the shocks did not recur through
out the day, are remaining in the open.
Crowds are gathering in the squares
and fields around the town, where fires
have been lighted, about which are
gathered pitiful groups who fear TO re-
turn to their homes

CHARGES FILED AGAINST
LOR|MER IN SENATE
Bribery Allegations Presented in
Form of Memorial from
Voters League

WASHINGTON, June 7.-Formal
charges against Senator William Lor-
inner of Illinois were laid before the
senate this afternoon by his colleague,
Senator Cullom. The proceeding was
the presentation of memorial by
Clifford w. Barnes of Chicago, presi-
dent of the Illinois Legislative Voters
league. embodying the charges of bri-
berry of members of the Illinois legis-
lature. The memorial was read only in
part and was referred without COM
ment to the committee on privileges
and elections.
Many members of the senate say
that even with the submission of the
confession of White and the indict-
ments against Browne, the senate still
lacks definite charges connecting Sen
ator Lorimer with the paying of
bribes.
1t is believed generally, however,
that the papers filed will cause the sem
ate committee on privileges and cleo
tions to take steps looking to a thor
ough investigation.
Chairman Burrows said tonight that
he wanted to examine the affidavit
made by Barnes before calling meet
ing of the committee.

Associated Press1

n ONE, June 7.-Great apprehension
X, has been caused again by seis-
~ mis- disturbances, showing that
the zone affected by the earthquake
shocks today is a vast one, embracing
practically the whole Of Southern It
ally as well as a portion of Tuscany
and Venitia to the north.
But the district where serious dam
age occurred only extends about fifty
miles around Mount Vulture, which is
an extinct volcano near the town of
Calitri in the province of Avellino.
The region has suffered. much in the
past from earthquakes and in 1851 800
persons We're killed. The number of
casualties resulting from the quake OF
today has not yet been ascertained.
Some reports estimate the dead at fifty
and the injured at several hundred.
1t is feared many are buried in the
ruins of the houses which were thrown
down in Calitri, while great damage
was done at other places with un-
known loss of life.
AIDING INJURED
The government has taken hold of
the situation with promptitude and al
though the earthquake occurred during
the night, civil and military authorities
soon were hard at work rendering aid
to the injured, preparing shelter for
the homeless and bending their ener-
gies to the re-esta blishment of order.
Premier Luzzati received word OF
the disaster at o'clock in the morn
ing. less than two hours after the oc-
currence fthe quake, and at once
communicated the news to the king.
The king decided to leave immedi-
ately for the district. He intended to
go alone. but Queen Helena insisted
on joining him.
The king thought this was not neces-
sary as the situation at Avellino was
not to be compared with that at Mes
sina, where their majesties spent sew
eral days in relieving the distress Of
the people.
In reply to the kings protests the
queen retorted:
"As my presence is necessary at all
festivities, it must not lack where the
people die and weep. In the south
Italians suffer; therefore must go. 1t
is my place as woman and q
mother"
The king and queen were cheered
by crowds at the station as they hur-
ried to the train and carefully inspect
ed the medical and other supplies.
Misfortune seems to have chosen
Italy as a target. While the south has
been afflicted by an earthquake, the
vast region of Sardinia, the largest
island in the Mediterranean after Sic
lily, was ravaged today by a cyclone.
The districts of Lanusei, Tortolli, Ilo-
bono, Elini and JerZu have been dew
astated and the crops, vineyards and
cattle destroyed. 1t is believed many
shephehrdds have fallen to their fate
with their flocks.
The damage in Sardinia is estimated
at $2,000,O00.

tions"
VOICE FAILS
Toward the close Mr.. Roosevelt's s
voice failed and he was obliged to

gestures, being cheered repeatedly at
various stages of his address.

Receive a Share

WASHINGTON, June 7.-Attorney
General Wickersham, in decision ans
nounced today, holds that Richard
Parr is entitled to recover from the
government the amount of his claim
for information given against the So
called sugar trust.
PARIS information brought about
the recovery of between $3,OOO,OOO and
$4,OOO,OOO The question of how much
money will be paid him is within the
discretion of tlSe secretary of the
treasury.
Under the law Parr could be al
lowed as much as 90 per cent OF the
amount recovered, but there is no
probability he will receive any such
sum.
