RIVER OF LAVA Is SPREADING
Villages Near Mount Etna Menaced by
Fiery Flood.

Catania, Sicily, March 27.-The
eruptions from the fourteen side era.
tiers of Mount Etna continue and the
fiery river formed at the foot of Mount
Castellazo moved slowly toward Bor-
relic and Belpasso, consuming every.
thing in its path.
The lavatic stream, winding in and
out over the uneven surface at the
mountain base, has covered probably
twenty-five miles, though its head is
not more than ten miles from the
sources in an air line Throughout
the night the summit of Mount Etna
appears to be ablaze, but a cloud of
black smoke envelopes the peak. Pro-
longed rumblings from the central era
ter and frequent explosions from the
side assures served as effectually as
the food itself TO hold in terror the
populace for miles around.

Philadelphia, March 29-The sym

by the Central Labor union there was
a general resumption of work. This
was especially noticeable in the build

city having been generally tied up
since the sympathetic strike was be-

All men who went out on sympa-
thetic strike did not find employment
when they reported. however. their

stances by nonunion workmen. These
cases will cause some friction, but lit
tie trouble is expected.
The Philadelphia Rapid Transit
company is still operating with linn

mendation of the secretary on the
other.
The Pinchot-Glavis side finished
shortly after the luncheon recess. At
torney l.. d. Brandeis, at that time,
made a second Intellectual attempt to
force the committee to call Secretary
Ballinger to testify as the first wit

previously decided against a demand
by Brandeis that he be allowed to call
Ballnger as a witness for the pros.
ecution."
Attorney Vertrees then began his
opening statement, which he read from
carefully prepared manuscript.

n. Y. SKYsCRAPER
Crowds in Busy Park Row See
Body Hurting Through
the Air.

NEW YORK, Aug. 3i.-Crowds on
Park row. one OF the city's busiest
streets, stopped horrified today at the
sight of q mans body hurtlIng through
the air from the roof of the 26-story
Park row building. The body crashed
into the skylight Of the six-story build
ing adjoining and became jammed in
the machinery OF the elevator. 1t was
hardly recognizable and some difficulty
was anticipated In Identifying 1t.
1t was not known whether the man
fell or deliberately jumped to his death
The victim of the fatal plunge was a
we'll dressed man. apparently about As
years of age. From papers found on
the body il is believed to be that OF
e. H. Holbrook. an insurance solicitor,
with offices on Broadway.
The body was later identified as
Holbrook's by officials of the insurance
company with which he was connect
ed. 1t was also learned that the VIC
tim OF today's fatal plunge, who for
merly lived in Philadelphia, survived
by a narrow margin fall OF eighty
three feet in the interior of another
building twelve years ago.
1t was in january 1885, that Hol-
brook jumped or fell the distance stated
down a stairway well in the New York
Life Insurance Company building on
Broadway, receiving terrible injuries.
from which it took him a long time to
recover. His explanation then was that
he had come from Philadelphia to see
officials of the insurance company and
fell over backward while sitting on the
baiustrade on an upper landing. Hol-
brook leaves a wife.
