Fort Worth, Tex., April 23. All of
Texas has needed rain, ao the great
evungelist Dwight Moody, called upon
his audience of 8,000 Christians to pray
for the floodgates to be opened. This
was at 3 P. M. today. Tonight when
the tabernacle was crowded by 10,000
people, Mr. Moody announced that word
hud come from several points that rain
had fallen. A few minutes later the
storm burst on Fort Worth and torrents
of rain fell. Then Mr. Moody gave
thanks to God and called upon the con
gregation to join in singing "Corona
tion," aud "All Hail the Power of
Jesus' Name, Let Angels Prostrate
Fall." The latter song had surged
forth from 10,000 voices when a crack
ing noise was heard, and then the roof
sank and the rafters gave way and the
heavy timbers and boards, covered
with tar and gravol, came down on a
portion of the congregation. There
was a panic Scores upon scores of
women fainted, some men lost their
heads and piled pell-moll over them.
Mr. Moody grasped the situation, and
moving to the middle of the platform,
lifted both hands to heaven, moving his
arms slowly too aud fro. His attitude
and calmness stopped the panic and
men began to escne those in danger.
A drenching rain was falling, but they
worked hard and the wounded were
soon taken out and carried to their home
or to houses near by. The casualties
were:
J. V. Ingraham, cut on head and
ohest, internal injures; will die; W. J.
Parley, left leg crushed, back injured,
seriously hurt; Mrs. Mary Murphy, cut
on head aud loft arm; Miss Carson, cut

Andrew Johnson and Alfred Nelson
had been living at Pelican point for
some time, but were ejected about two
months ago on a suit brought by Oliver
A. Slude. The men were missed for
some time, and Monday last the body
of Hayes was found near the lake
shore. Death had been caused by two
gunshot wounds. Late yesterday aftor
noon the bodies of Johnson and Nelson
were found. The bodies were found in
the lake on a wagon, tied down with
ropes. The bodies presonted a sicken'
ing appearance. The murders probably
occurred in February. Tho murdered
men were all oousins, and were run
nlng a stock business on the ranch.
The theory is that the men were umr
dored in the cabin during the night'
and thrown into the lake, as the bodies
were partly undressed when found.
The gunshot wounds appear to have
been made with a 44-caliber riflo.
Suspioion, it is said, points to H.
Hayes, the stepfather of one of the
murdered men, and a son of his who is
missing. Other theories are advanced,
but have no motive to support them,
The country surrounding the village is
wild and broken, and has been the
scene of many tragedies between In
dians and early settlers. The coroner's
jury examined the bodies and will con

Additional Retails of the Chlno-Japan
eae Treaty.
Yokohama, April 22. Nichiuichi
today publishes the terms of tho treaty
of peace concluded between China and
Japan. Tbe new details furnished are
that the indemnity is payable in seven
years, with interest at 5 per oent, but
if the amount of 200,000,000 taola
paid Japan in three years no interest
will be demanded. Japan is also "en
titled under the treaty to the most-fav
ored-nuHon treatment, and has the right
to navigate the Chung Liang, Foo Chow
aud Hong Kong rivers, to import goodi
of certain grades and machinery free of
duty and establish factories. A new
treaty of commerce is to be concluded,
based on exsting treaties with foreign
powers. China is to comply with tho
customs laws of Japan, and part of the
expenses of occupation of Wei Hui Wei
Port Arthur, etc., by Japanese troops,
are to be borne by China.
China engages not to punish returned
prisoners, nor to inflict punishment
upon Chinese who may have aided the
Japanese army and navy. China also
binds herself to return Japanese prison
ers unconditionally. The exchange of
ratifications of the treaty will take
place at Che Foo not later than May 8,
One stipulation of the treaty between
China and Japan is that Chinese who
have been captured by the Japanese,
and others who had sold supplies to the
Japanese troops should not be beheaded
according to the Chinese custom. Until
the beginning of the war between
China and Japan each country had con
sular jurisdiction over its subjects in
the other country. It now appears that
Japan will now no longer grant this

Ttoaala Hay Ask Chines Territory,
London, April 22. The Standard's
correspondent in St Petersburg sys:
"The newspapers continue to express
discontent with China's cession of
mainland territory to Japan, but only
a feeble idea is given by them of the
extreLwly difficult position in which
Russia is placed. It is a fact that the
gravest apprehension exists in politcal
circles, and it is evident that Russia
cannot submit to the ratification of the
treaty under present conditions; but it
is very difficult to see what path will
remain open should Japan and China
persist in the ratification. There are
excellent grounds for believing that
Russia will ask for the oession of other
Chinese mainland territory. If this bo
refused, consideration for her prestige
will compel her to take decisive and
prompt action."
The Standard's correspondent in Od
essa says:
"In the last few weeks 60,000 sol
diers have sailed from this port for
yiadivoBtook, and 6,000 of them will
embark soon. The cruisers are held
ready to transport them, despite the
conclusion of peace in the East. "
Mot Willing to Open Peking.
London, April 22. The Times' cor
resdoudent in Peking says:
"It is understood that China has con
ceded every requirement of Japan, ex
cept that making Peking an open port.
XhiB she has strenuously resisted.
nothing is Known here or any peace
conditions likely to involve other na
tions in complications with Japan. The
majority of Chinese are still ignorant
of Japan's demands. The utmost Bea
recy is observed.
"Li Hung Chang, who is returning
irom Himonosuki with his son-in-law,
is Btill in high favor. '
"I near that false returns exaggerate
the number of soldiers at Shan Hai
Kwan and elsewhere. Peculation
among the officials continues.
'The American missionaries are re
turning to Kulgum, 800 miles to . the
northward, as no further danger is
feared. During the last few days the
natives here are more insulting to foreigners."

TIIECANALCONCESSION
Nicaragua Does Not Want the
Company to Surrender It.
TIKE LIMIT WILL BE EXTENDED
In Addition to Thla, Kvery raelllty and
Kneonrageinent Will Be (liven
tho Construction Party.
Washington, April 20. Dr. Guz
man, Nioaraguan minister, waa asked
today concerning a roport that Nicara'
gua desired that the present Nicaragua
canal company should surrender the
concession under which work has been
done thus far, and that the United
States and. Nicaragua should jointly
unoertaao the future work as a govern
mental enterprise. The minister ex
plained the roport was duo to a mis
apprehension. The Nicaraguan govern
ment had no wish, he aaid, that tho
company should surrender its con
oession. It had every confidence that
the company would push the enterprise
with all possible speed. Under these
circumstances, Dr. Guzman aaid the
joint govermental proposition was not
a live one, and it was needless to spec
ulate on a contingency which Nicara
gua did not regard as a remote possibil
lty. 1 no government wanted to five
every faoility and encouragement to the
oompany, and did not want the im
pression to go abroad that it considered
forfeiture likely or even possible.
Dr. Guzman says the misapprehension
arose through crediting to him a state'
ment wuicn oe had communicated to
the state department as an enclosure.
The statement had been made during
an interview Detwen the United States
minister at Nicaragua and the govern'
ment authorities. It waa forwarded to
Guzman and by him sent to the state
department without any intention of
indorsing the views. It has since been
found that the report of the interview
at Managua was very defective. Min
ister Baker was talking in English and
understood no Spanish. The Nicara
guan minister was talking in Spanish
and understood no English. Thore waa
naturually some misunderstanding,
from which the recent reports have
arisen.

Salem, Or., April 18. Governor
Lord, Secretary of State Kincaid and
Treasurer Metschan returned from
their Eeastern Oregon tour today; Sec
retary Kincaid today announced in
plain terms that he hud fully made up
his mind on the holdover commissioner
question, and his decision is.
WiJl not issue warrants to .the old com
missioners until forced to do so by "the
process of law. The question now
Who shall represent the state in
defense and whence will come the
funds with which to pay the attorney1
fee? Secretary Kincaid does not con
aider it incumbent on Mr. Idloman
represent tbe defonse in opposition to
an opinion already rendered, nor will
he ask the services of anothor attorney,
making his remuneration dependent on
the next legislature. Tho most feasible
course, it is hold, and the one that will
probably be followed, is to ask for pri
vate subscriptions to dof ray the expense
of defending the suit thut is expected
to follow. One Portlund man has offer
ed to contribute $100 and the secretary
thinks enough can be secured by volun
tary conrtibutions to oonduct the do'
fense. A Portland attorney has offered
to represent the state for $250, and Mr.
Sehlbrede thinks Roseburg will also
contribute funds. The secretary is oon
firmed in the belief that the citizens of
the state almost universally ondorse
his refusal to recognize the holdover
commissioners.

MORE TROUBLE IN ARMENIA'
American Missionaries In Persia.
Washington, April 20. United
States Minister Tyler, at Teheran, Per
sia, appears to have had a great deal
of trouble lust year in securing adequate
protection for certain American mis
sionaries striving to establish a Jewish
mission school in that country. The
missionaries were rudely treated by the
inferior Persian officials, and had diffl
culty in protecting their pupils. Ow
ing to the energetic efforts of the min
ister, which found a ready response
from the shah, the school was finally
put upon a firm basis, although it was
found necessary to caution all mission
stations to observe very carefully the
treaty stipulations, and refrain from
extending refuge to Persian subjects.

Turkish soliders had attempted to leave

true, and a massacre was prevented
only by the action of the oommander

the first sign of an outbreak ordered
the troops to return to their quarters
immediately. - The command was not
obeyed, whereupon Shah Pasha ordered
a volley to be fired by the troops who
