Paris, June l7.-Nine bodies OF thos'

been recovered up to late yesterday aft
ernoon. The work of excavation to I'M
earth streets undermined by overtaxet
sewers had not been completed and il
was feared that many more bodies would
be recovered A number OF persons are
as vet unaccounted for,
The flooding of the sewers and con
duits is believed to have formed under
ground passages Of considerable mag
nitude in several sections of the city
and fears are felt for more cave-ins.
The cabinet yesterday discussed the
problem of preventive measures-includ.
ing some more modern method of taking
care of heavy rainfall. That of Mon
day was of such magnitude that the
sewers were utterly unable to carry it
Off
Belief that the death list would reach
nearly score, was expressed yester-
day when workmen began digging in
the debris of several streets, sunken by
the terrible deluge OF rain.
The bodies of two-a man and a
woman were recovered, horribly
crushed. from a gaping excavation tf-
teen by thirty feet, where the Rue Tro-
chet, Rue Amber and Boulevard Hauss-
man ntersect The street sank under
the washing out of overtaxed sewers.
A man and a woman in taxicab
passing near by were engulfed in the
sliding mass of earth and crushed to
death.
A number of families reported some
of their loved ones missing yesterday,
and vigorous search in the debris was
started.
In addition to the cave-in on the
Boulevard Haussman, big section Of
roadway on the Place Saint Philippe du
Roue at the intersection of Rue de la

I'm BOSTON MARKETS.
Butter Steady, Eggs Short in Supply and
Steady in Price.

Boston. June l7-Butter is steady in
the local market but this condition is
| due in no small measure to the firmness
of the outside markets. Business at best
! is only moderately active, and receipts
are seasonably heavy, but the trend OF
other markets suggests higher replacing
costs for goods sold, and consequently
there is no pressure TO sell. There is an
easier feeling in the cheese market, ow-
ing to weaker turn in the primary
markets No change has been made in
quotations, but trading is so slow that
it is doubtful If the lower figures are be-
ing exceeded. Hennery eggs are short
and firm. Really good gathered stock
is none too plenty for wants and also
holds firm in price.

SEES U. S. OWNERSHIP SPREADING
First Step in Washington d. c., Says
Author of Bill.

Washington, June IL Government
ownership will spread like dew through
out the United States if the District OF
Columbia takes over and operates its
street car lines" said Representative
Crosser of Ohio yesterday.
"We will surprise the United States
| by showing how successful government
ownership can be-" he added. 1--WE will
demonstrate to every city in the coun-
| try the real advantages OF municipal
ownership.
Crosser, who is the author of bill
providing for the condemnation of the
los miles of roadway and all the car
property in the district, said he firmly
believed the bill would pass both the
House and Senate.
One Senator told him, he added, TO
get it through the House and We'll
show you how quickly the Senate can
decide the question"
II is proposed to pay the two corpora
tions owning the street car lines $780,
100000 for their property.
"If Washington city goes into the
street railway business it viii be the
greatest lesson for the people of the
country that this district will ever
teach said Crosser more people from
more communities come to this city
every year than go to any other one
place in the United States. In addition
there are representatives here OF every
community When these two classes of
citizens see how successful municipal
ownership is they will demand it in their
localities"
Strong support is assured by various
members of Congress with municipal
ownership "hobbies."

THE DEVIL BABY"
OF HULL HOUSE
Jane Adams Explains Story to Club
women to Win Friendship for
the Immigrants.

Chicago, June l7.-The story of the
devil baby of Hull House was told by
the head of the social center Jane Adj
dams. to the convention of the General
Federation OF Women's Clubs here yes
terday.
The story was told in connection with
plea OF clubwomen to extend the hand
of fellowship to immigrant women, es-
pecally the older women. Miss Adams
said that the origin of fairy stories
seems to have been with primitive wom-
en-. who invented them to influence to
gentler ways their brutal lords and mas.
tiers.
There was of course no devil baby
but such currency did the story have
that for six weeks the ordinary activ-
tiles of Hull House were almost suspend
ed while we explained to hundreds of
ignorant inquirers that it was all fairy
story" said Miss Adams.
Finally we placed detectives at work,
and we found two versions. The Italian
version was that Christian girl mar
ried an atheist who. at the elimination
of an assault ON his wife, tore down a
sacred picture and declared that he would
rather have a devil in the house than his
wife, And when a child was born ran
the story, 10, it was a devil with horns
and hoofs, and tall
THE Jewish version differed but lit.
tie" continued Miss Adams. ut con
cerned father whose wife had borne
him seven daughters, and upon the APP
prosch of the eighth he swore he would
rather have devil in the house than
another daughter. And the story, like
that of the Italians, concluded with the
birth of the devil baby In both cases,
went the gossip, the frightened parents
had brought the imp to Hull House,"
Miss Adams had explained that de-
tectives found that immigrant mothers
were trying to persuade their daughters
against unorthodoxy. or doubtful con
duct by threatening them with impish
progeny.

ANALYZING COAL
To Determine the Best and the Cheapest
Fuel.


Each summer the United States Geo.
logical Survey issues a small pamphlet
giving analyses made by the bureau OF
mines of the coal samples that the sur
vey has collected during the year. These
analyses are made for the purpose OF OBJ
tanning data upon which to classify and
value the public lands, and for general
information regarding the various coal
fields of the United States.
The latest pamphlet OF this series of
the geological survey bulletin 54l- J
gives the analyses of 1875 samples col
lected by uniform methods in Alabama,
Colorado. Illinois, Kentucky, Montana,
New Mexico Oregon. Pennsylvania,
Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wyo-
ming. Most of the samples were OBJ
tanned in working mines and therefore
represent the actual coal that is mined
and reaches the market; but few We're
collected from surface exposures or old
prospects, and the analyses of these sam
plies have only doubtful value and
should be used only as indicating the
quality of the coal They should not be
accepted as final until they have been
checked by the analysis of fresh mate
rial. The heating value is given with
almost all the analyses, so that il is easy
to determine which of two Goals is the
better. The bulletin also gives brief
description of the samples, including a
section of the coal at the point sampled,
and an outline of the different classes of
Goals recognized by the geological sur
yey.

SETS OUT 1900 APPLE TREES.
Middletown Springs Man Going Into the
Business on Large Scale.

| Because of the great interest in apple
growing throughout Vermont at the
present time, Leroy Southworth, the
sage of Middletown Springs was asked
yesterday about the plan to be followed
by B. c. Buxton of Middletown, who has
recently planted an extensive orchard
near the village. Mr.. Buxton is brother
in law of r. r. McRae of Castleton Cor
ners and is interested financially in the
mammoth orchard near the Corners
planted by Mr.. McRae.
Mr.. Southworth said yesterday:
'Inspirited by and acting upon what
may be termed the higher conception Of
poinology, DIR. b. c. Buxton has recently
completed the planting of II 000s apple
trees upon his large real estate holdings
at Middletown Springs.
"Tbe seedlings in this orchard are
chiefly the Northern Spy, Rhode Island
Greening Mcintosh Red, Alexander and
Spitzenburg being set u feet apart each
way, varieties interspersed to promote
polarization, in view of later removals,
so that AZ feet spaces will intervene as
the trees grow to maturity.
"0ne half stick of dynamite, exploded
about two feet below the surface of the
ground, afforded the excavation for each
tree, careful attention being given to
secure the most favorable condition of
earth and soil for living and extending
roots.
This orchard. henceforward, is to re-
eeive the bestowal of scrupulous benefits
of the most modern and best methods of
cultivation. Marauding pests OF every
tribe and cline may be assured OF an
eager and early welcome to the embraces
of the kindest hospitable extinction"
