The schooner .. Pierce Simpson arrived
here from Orange a few days ago, where
she was fitted up with a motor. The
vessel is at present lying out in the chan-

large cargo of beer and ice for Cuba. It
is learned that lately a law has become
effective which admits keg beer on the
island, the bottled product having here-
tofore been the prevailing product in the
field at that place. Galveston manufact-
urers are supplying the Cuban dealers all
sizes of ice boxes and beer refrigerators
and American methods will doubtless be
fully tested this summer.

New York, April 9.—The officers of the
Housesmiths’ union announced yesterday
that they would make a supreme effort to
bring their fight of the union against the
open shop to a crisis on May 1, when the
building is supposed to begin. They ex-
pect that other building trades unions will
then demand that the open shop declara-
tion against the Housesmiths’ union be re-
called by the Allied Iron associations and

St. Petersburg, April 9.—Belated returns
only increase the magnitude of the op-
position’s victory.
Kurak has returned a solid Progressive
delegation headed by Prince P§ter Do|-
goroukoff. M. Sherkoff, one of the mem-
bers elected to the lower house of parlia-
ment, is now in prison. ,
Vitebsk elected two Poles, a Catholic
priest, one Progressive, two Constitu-
tional Democrats and two peasants.
Vladimir, one of the old capitals of
Russia, where the orthodox faith has
been particularly strong and generally
monarchistic in the electoral college,
elected five Constitutional Democrats.
Tula is the only province except Mos-
cow which returned a majority of Con-
servatives. The result of the Moscow'
province constitutes an anomaly in elec-
tions. All Constitutional Democrats went
down through the result of engineering
by Royalists, who bought the support of
the peasants in the, electoral college by
allowing them to name an- additional
member. The bargain was so distasteful to
M. Shipoff, a prominent member of the-
zemstov, and M. Clietveriloff, that they
determined not to be a party in it and
withdrew their candidatures and also in-
duced Constitutional Democrats to with-
draw from the ticket, which included
Prince Paul Bolgoroukoff, Prince Galitzin,
M. Kokoskhine, Prof. Mouromtseff and
M. Golivin. As a net result the province
of Moscow, the real heart of Russia,
sends to parliament comparatively un-
known men—two peasant workmen,
Prince Gagarn, M. Bashoff, M. Krudner
and Peter Struve. The latter is the most
prominent, being president of the Moscow
bourse.
With the single exception of Tula, in
every province where the peasant class
was in the majority the Progressives cap-
tures the majority of members. Most of
them, however, although belonging to the
peasant class, are actually peasants in
name only and have risen far above their

FEARS DIMINISHING.
By Associated Press
Naples, April 9.—The stream of lava
which has been threatening Annunziata,
the town of 23,084 inhabitants, 12 miles
remained stationary
the fears of
have passed
volcano has
A quarrel which has been threatening
for several days was terminated Saturday
evening about 6 o’clock when John Scott
and John Cooper, both colored, met in a
grocery store on 'the corner of 29th street
and avenue K and Scott shot Cooper to
death.
Scott was released this morning by Jus-
tice Fontaine on $200 bond.
The killing occurred at the store of A.
Cannatella and is the result of a contro-
versy over the dissolution of the partner-
ship in which the two men have, been en-
gaged for eight months as house-movers
and contractors.
Two days ago Scott, who bears an ex-
cellent reputation as a quiet and peaceful
negro and a good mechanic, called at the
police station seeking advice. He ex-
plained that he and his‘partner had had
some disagreement and that he (Scott)
wanted to dissolve the flrm, explaining
to Cooper that he was willing to either
buy his (Cooper’s) interest or sell out
his own interest, and Cooper agreed to
buy out Scott’s interest. But according
to the statement of Scott made at the
station, Cooper was acting ugly about
the settlement. Scott was asked if Coop-
er had threatened him, and if so a warrant
would be issued for Cooper’s arrest. Scott
stated that the man had not threatened
to harm him, but that he showed a dispo-
sition to be ugly and quarrelsome every
time he (Scott) approached him to get a
settlement and divide up the tools and
property of the firm.
Saturday night the men met again, and
it appears from the statement of Scott
and witnesses that he was going to pay
Cooper some money for some contract
work, but Cooper became incensed and
pulling a knife started for Scott and suc-
ceeded in cutting him twice, when the
latter grabbed a revolver and shot Coop-
er. The first snap of the pistol failed, but
the second time the gun was exploded
and a bullet found lodgment in Cooper’s
head. He fell and in a few seconds was
dead.
Scott walked outside’ the store and
waited for the arrival of the police, to
whom he gave himself up and explained
that he had shot Coopei.
Detectives Waters and Rexer inter
viewed a number of witnesses, who cor
roborated the statement of Scott.
Justice Fontaine was summoned,
after viewing the body and hearing the
testimony of witnesses, adjourned the in-
quest until this morning, when Scott was
given a preliminary hearing on the charge
of murder. After hearing all the evidence
this morning Justice Fontaine ordered the
prisoner held to answer to a charge of
homicide and placed his bond at $200,
which was furnished and the man released
from custody. All the evidence pointed
to it being a case of self-defenses

Chicago, Ill., April 9.—A report was re-
ceived in Zion City today to the effect
that John Alexander Dowie, on his ar-
rival at Zion City, will cause the imme-
diate arrest of General Overseer Voliva
and members of his council on the charge
of conspiracy. The rumor caused great
excitement in 'Zion City and the an-
nouncement was made that if Dowie took
such action his own arrest would follow
immediately, and on a charge more serious
than has yet been made public.
Deacon Harrison, speaking for Overseer
Voliva, said: “If Dowie carries out such
a program we are prepared to meet him
in the same way. He will at once be
served w’ith warrants on charges more
serious than have yet been made public.”
Preparations have been made to counter-
act any move that may be made by Dowie
in the direction of causing arrests. Bonds
have already been prepared by officers
of Zion church so that it will not neces-
sary for them to leave Zion City.
Deacon Wilhite left Zion City today
with $500, which he was asked by Dowie
to forward. Whether he wrould take it to
St. Louis or give it to Dowie on his ar-
rival here is not known.

Washington, D. C., April 9.—Congress-
man J. Adam Bede of M’nnesota will in-
troduce a resolution, possibly tomorrow,
asking the judiciary committee to report
on the validity of a proposition to divide
the state of Texas into four states, North,
East, South and West Texas, with a sep-
arate legislature for each but with a
central head for the four states at Austin.
This arrangement would give Texas eight
United States senators, whica is the milk
in the cocoanut of Bede’s resolution. The
western states are eager to increase west-
ern power in the upper house of congress
and Bede’s proposition, if acceptable to
Texas, will find an enthusiastic reception
among western, congressmen. .
Bede will make an elabo/ate speech on
Texas and the subject of his resolution
when h© presents the same.

New York, April 9.—At the request of
the operators the conference between
committees of coal operators and miners,
which was. scheduled to be held in con-
sideration of the anthracite fields, has
been postponed until tomorrow.
It is announced that the postponement
was requested because some of the op-
erators had not sufficient opportunity to
consider the miners’ proposition for arbi-
tration. The two sub-committees held
separate sessions today to consider the
miners’ proposition for arbitration. The
two sub-committes held separate sessions
today to consider the situation as it now
stands. The miners’ committee have had
little, to do, as their latest proposition,
arbitration, is still in the hands of the op-
erators. The members of the committee
informally took up many reports that
have been circulated regarding the inten-
tion of mine operators in order to find out
what the sentiment of the committeemen
on various counter propositions said to
have been considered
Mr. Mitchell and his lieutenants express
the opinion that the operators will not
accept the miners’ offer as made, but will
present an arbitration plan radically dif-
ferent from the one proposed.
CONVENTION CALL POSTPONED.
