matters. The rest of the rules are
the same as those of the last ses-
sion, with just a few changes in the
wording.
The new committees provided for
are these:-
A committee of nine members, to
whom shall be referred all bills pro-
viding for the establishment of, sup
port of state normal or state agrl-
cultural schools and other schools
supported in whole or in part by

Avalanche on Canadian Pacific
in British Columbia.
ALL The VICTIMS WORKMEN
Swept to Death While Removing
Obstruction on Tracks.

Vancouver, B. c., March 6-In a
snowslide between Rogers Pass sta.
ton and Glacier, on the line of the Ca.
madam Pacific, in the Rocky noun
tains, fifty men were killed. All the
victims were workmen for the railway
company and more than half of them
were Japanese.
The men were working crew clear.
ing away a small slide that had come
down early in the evening. They were
working rotary engine, when large
slide came down and carried them to
their death in the canyon below.
At first it was believed that all of
the hundred men engaged in the work
had been killed, but later it was found
that many had escaped. The death
total is now estimated at fifty.
All passenger trains on the line are
safe, though it will probably be day
or two before they are able to pass
the place where the slide occurred.
1t was one of the worst nights ever
experienced in the railway section OF
the Canadian Rockies. There was a
heavy storm of rain and sleet and
sometimes snow.
A storm also occurred in the Arrow
lakes. Communication with the East
is down. A long section of telegraph
line was carried away by the slide.

Series of SnoWsides.
Spokane, Wash, March 5.-The
death list in the recent avalanches in
Northern Idaho is known to be thirty
one and it is believed more dead will
be found in the splintered cabins in
the several villages which housed the
families of the victims.
At Mace, where the first avalanche
struck, eleven are known to be dead
and eight are badly injured Sweep
ing down the mountainside the great
mass of snow and earth crushed the
cabins and small houses like egg
shells, burying the occupants in a
mass of logs, snow and earth.
At Burke, where the second slide
occurred few hours after the one at
Mace, five people are known to be
dead and two badly injured. So cha
otto is the condition in the small min
ing town, however, that the list is be-
lieved not to be complete. The sad
dest incident at this place is the
death of the whole family of Albert
Newman. He, with his wife and two
children, without seconds warning,
were buried in the avalanche.
At Carbonate Hill, where the third
slide occurred, two persons are dead
and half a. dozen injured. It is not
known how many more are dead be-
meath the wreckage. >r

INQUIRY IS DEMANDED
Sensational Charges Against
Merchant Marine League.

Washington, March 4.-Sensational
charges alleging that officers of the
Merchant Marine league of Cleveland,
O., along with them former Governor
Herrick, have conspired and federated
with a view to securing the enactment
of ship subsidy legislation by corrupt
means are contained in a resolution
presented to the house by Represen-
tative -Halvor Stevenson of Mime
sofa. The Stevenson resolution,
which was submitted in the open
house, provides for the appointment of
a special committee of seven mem
bers to inquire into the charges. It
was referred to the house committee
on the judiciary.
The STEVENSON measure is a lengthy
document. It recites that the officers
and other members of the Merchant
Marine league are engaged in issuing
pamphlets, periodicals and other
printed matter devoted to the advance
ment and agitation of legislation for
appropriations by congress for ocean
mail service and subsidy payments
generally. Further, that an effort is
being made improperly to influence
members of congress in connection
with this legislation.
In pursuance of this conspiracy the
resolution recites funds are being col
lected in various states of the Union
from interested persons.

Extensive Labor Demonstration
at Philadelphia.
MANY UNIONS ARE ON STRIKE
Quit Work in Sympathy With
Street Car Employees.

Philadelphia, March 6.-Philadel-
phia is experiencing the most extern
sive labor demonstration in the his
tory of the city-the long heralded
general strike in sympathy with the
striking street car men.
Declared to be the first general
sympathetic strike ever called in this
country the movement of organized
labor thus made memorable was fur
Their unique for the fact that no dis
order attended the walkout. The
street car service was as good as any
day recently, lob cars, according to
the company, being operated in the
early hours.
The strike call was responded to
by many thousands of workers, but
their action was quiet and peaceab!e.
The police, who had expected trouble,
were greatly relieved to find nothing
more serious than a trivial affair at
one of the trolley power houses.
The number of men on strike can
not be accurately ascertained Direc-
tor of Public Safety Clay says not
more than 10000 walked out.
Labor Men Say $4,000 Are Out.
The only assertion the strike lead
ers will make is that $4,000 workers
are out. Officials at the city hall and
Rapid Transit company representa-
tives scoffed at the idea that the lat
ter had gone out
The promise made by Timothy
Heely, representative of the station
airy iremen, who said he could cripple
the power plants, apparently was not
fulfilled The power plants were op-
Grated and cars were running with
extra policemen to guard against the
trouble looked for by the department
of public safety.
The superintendent of the subway
and elevated lines of the traction
company said that branch of the
service would not be affected, as the
men were unionized The company is
making a great effort to keep this
great artery of travel open.
1t was said by the union leaders
that Intentionally public facilities,
such as the service of milk, ice and
bread, had not been curtailed and that
the men would go out after having
notified their patrons supplies were
to stop.
