caught when the death-dealing wind
came upon them with terrific force, level
ling everything in its path. The tornado
swept an area of 250 yards wide for a
distance of a mile and a half. Houses
collapsed as if built of cardboard, cov
ering the dead and injured with debris,
which necessarily made the work of res
cue slow.

place this afternoon. The supply of cof

SrRIKE HEADQUARTERS.
Opened by Mitchell at "Wlllcesbarre
The Soft Coal Question. '
"WILKESBARRE, Pa., May 19. Presi
dent John Mitchell, of the United Mine
workers of America, arrived here from
Hazleton shortly after 9 o'clock tonight,
and established strike headquarters at the
Hotel Hart The Natipnal president stat
ed that so far as the miners' side of the
controversy was concerned, the situation
had not changed in the least.
Mr. Mitchell's attention was called to
the fact that the City of Philadelphia had
contracted for a supply of bituminous coal
to take the place of anthracite, which had
been cut off by the railway companies
furnishing It. In reply to a question as
to whether the mlneworkers would at
tempt to prevent the shipment of soft
coal to places where hard coal is used,
he said: "Considering the proposition in
a general way, I will say that we do not
desire to make any city a victim or have
any person suffer because of our quar-H
rel with the coal companies.'
He was pressed for a more explicit
statement, but refused to go into It any
deeper, except to say that it was a. mat
ter which would have to be settled by the
three executive boards of the anthracite
fields. They will meet here "Wednesday.
Judging by the action of the union dur
ing the last strike, when efforts were
made to stop the shipment of soft coal
into anthracite territory, it Is not unlike
ly that the miners may take similar ac
tion within the next few days.
Two carloads of foreigners left the
Hazleton region today. Most of them
were booked for New York, whence they
will sail for their native countries. Most
of the foreigners will seek work in the
bituminous region.
Dyers on Strike.
PATERSON, N. J., May 19. Every dye
house in Paterson. was closed today as a
result of the order of last week for a gen
eral strike. The strikers -will serid repre
sentatives to the Pennsylvania towns,
where silk dyeing is done, and to Peters
burg. "Va., with a view of bringing Into
the union the men working in the dye
houses in those places.
Grocers Will Restrict Credit.
SCRANTON, Pa., May 19. At a meet
ing tonight the Retail Grocers' Associa
tion decided to restrict credit during the
pendency of the strike. The wholesalers
in the afternoon decided to demand cash
payments from the retailers. The com
panies today began swearing in coal and
iron police.
Non-Union 3Ien Strike.
CHICAGO, May 19. Non-union linemen

FORESAW THEIR DOOM
LETTERS WRITTEN AT ST. PIERRE,
BEFORE THE. DISASTER.
No Advantage Was Taken of the
Ample Warning; Given Work of
Relief Continues.
PARIS, May 19. Martinique malls for
warded just prior to the 'recent disaster
arrived here yesterday. The most inter
esting, letter is from a young lady, who
was among the victims. It was dated
May 3. After describing the aspect of "St.
Pierre before dawn, the town being lit
up with names from the volcano, every
thing covered with ashes, and the people
greatly excited, yet not panic-stricken,
she said:
"My" calmness astonishes me. I am wait
ing the event tranquilly. My only suffer
ing is from the dust, which penetrates
everywhere, even though our windows
and doors. "We are all calm. Ma is not
a bit anxious. Edith alone is frightened.
If death claims us there will be a numer
ous company to leave the world. "Will it
be by flre or asphyxiation? It will be what
God wills. You will have our last
thoughts. Tell Brother Robert that we
u ami a. live. tns win, pernaps, oe no
The Edith mentioned was a lady visitor,
who was among the rescued. This and
other letters enclosed samples of the ashes
which fell over the doomed town. The
ashes are a bluish gray, impalpable pow
der, resembling newly ground flour, and
slightly smelling of sulphur.
Another letter, written during the
afternoon of May 3, says: "The popula
tion of the neighborhood of the mountain
is flocking to the city. Business Is sus
pended, the Inhabitants are panic-stricken,
and the firemen are sprinkling the streets
and roofs, to settle the ashes, which are
filling the air."
These and other letters seem to Indicate
that evidences of the impending disaster
were numerous five days before It oc
curred. It is difficult to understand how It was
that a general exodus of the population
of St. Pierre did not take place before
May S. StllJ. another letter says:
"St. Pierre presents an aspect unknown
to the natives. It is a city sprinkled with
gray snow, a "Winter scene without cold.
The inhabitants of the neighborhood are
abandoning their houses, villas and cot
tages, and are flocking to the city. It
is a curious pell mell of women, chil
dren and barefooted peasants, big black
fellows loaded with household goods. The
air is oppressive; your nose burns. Are
we going to be asphyxiated? "What has
tomorrow in store for us? A flow of lava,
rain of stones or a cataclysm from the
sea? Who can tell? "Will give you last
thought if I must die."
A St. Pierre paper of May 3 announces
that an 'excursion arranged for the next
day to Mount Pelee had been postponed,
as the crater was Inaccessible, adding that
notice would be issued when the excursion
would take place.
Although Whit Monday is a public holi
day, the Ministry of the Colonies was open
as -usual, and all the officials were at
their posts.
The advices received from Martlnlaue
'this morning indicate that the local au
thorities are no longer anxious regard
ing food and other supplies, which are
now reaching Fort de France In sufficient
quantities to meet all demands until the
arrival of supplies, which are now on their
way to the island and those preparing
to salL The government believes that
the emergency is over. The correspondent
of the Associated Press learns that the
Minister of the Colonies totally discred
its the report of the destruction of St.
Marie, Martinique, hy flrer which has
reached here, as today's dispatches no not
mention the fact, which they certainly
would have done if the- town bad been
burned.
The congregation completely filled the
fashionable Church of St. Augustine this
morning on the occasion of the solemn
service organized by the League of
French women in memory of the victims
of the Martinique disaster. Bishop Cor
mon, assisted by the clergy of the parish,
celebrated the mass and pronounced the
absolution. This was the first memorial
service for the dead of Martinique held
in Paris. Another will be held in the
new Casillca of the Sacred Heart tomor
row, at which Bishop Cormon will again
officiate.
The officials say the reports of the
French Embassies and Legations at the
various capitals show that the sympathy
with France abroad Is increasing. The
latest subscription Is that of the ex-Queen
Regent of Spain, who has given 1000
francs to the fund, which now amounts to
over 750,000 francs.
M. L'Huerre, the Governor of Martin
ique, has sent the following telegram to
M. De Crals, the Colonial Minister, dated
Fort de France, May 18:
"I have informed the population that
supplies by the United States naval ves
sel Dixie and the steamers Fontabella
and Madlana will arrive here today. The
cargoes of these vessels will be exempted
from all duties and -other charges. This
is done on all food supplies reaching us.
Commander Mentz and Captain Crabb,
of the Quartermaster's Department, have
Just arrived here on the United States col
lier Sterling with the food presented by
the Government o Porto Rico."
PLACE IS UNSAFE.
Worlc
of Excavation at St.
Pierre
Will Be Discontinued.
FORT DE PRANCE, May 19. Acting
Governor IHuerre and the other insular
authorities and the committee of doctors
who embarked on the French cruiser
Suchet proceeded 6n that ship to St.
Pierre to determine whether there was
danger in permitting the examination of
the ruins to continue, Inasmuch as a large
number of the corpses buried there are
in a state of putrefaction. As the au
thorities were about to debark at St.
Pierre a large quantity of lava flowed in
to the River Blanche, and this, accom
panied by an enormous cloud of emoke,
made It appear doubtful whether it would
be possible to examine St. Pierre, be
cause of the danger of being lost in the
ruins. The party did not land, and the
Suchet steamed to the north.
In the direction of Le Prechur the ap
pearance of the volcano was not so ter
rific The ground at i-e Prechur is cov
ered with a thick layer o cinders and
the limbs of the trees are weighted down
with them.
After the cruiser passed Cape St. Ma
rie the cinders on shore were seen tobe
less thick, and gradually decreased as
the vessel approached Basse Point. Here
the Suchet anchored and a small boat
came out from the shore bearing persons
who asked for food. Thirty-eight barrels
of biscuits and hogs were distributed.
There are COO Inhabitants at Basse Point,
and a number of famlles have fled from
the village, leaving all their property be
hind. The river at Basse Point Is filled
with mud, which appears to be congest
ing. The bridge has been destroyed. The
river water has ceased to flow, but cattle
get water from the springs in the neigh
borhood. There are several very fine
sugar cane estates In the vicinity of
Basse Point.
Several women with their children and
baggage embarked on the Suchet there
and the cruiser returned to St. Pierre.
The return trip was quite different, as
the r coasts were at tunes hidden from
view. The temperature of the water was
29.1 degrees, Centigrade. Upon Teach
ing St. Pierre the second tune, the Gov
ernment authorities landed. There was
a strong odor of burnt flesh In th town
and flies were beginning to congregate
in great numbers.
Difficulty is had in burning the bodies.
The committee of doctors examining the
ruins declared that in some parts of the
town It would be impossible to let the
work of excavation continue -
Access to St. Pierre Is difficult today.
LDGOaOTOR 'ATAXIA
How a. New Jersey Man Fraed
Himself From This Affliction.
The busy little village of Branchville,
N. J., has been the scene of a modern
miracle. Charles F. Struble, a well
known farmer of that town, was cured
of locomotor ataxia and rheumatism.
To a correspondent of the New York
Press he said:
"I was troubled with rheumatism, on
and off, for 20 years, and tried all kinds
of treatment. I took sulphur bathe and
was treated with a galvanic battery. I
also tried many doctors, none of whom
did me any permanent good. I tried all
kinds of liniments, but without avail.
"All this time I was growing worse,
and In 1891 the doctor who was treating
me said my case had developed into
locomotor ataxia. He gave me no en
couragement, and after attending me
for a while he told me my ailment was
Incurable.
"I suffered horribly. The cords of
my limbs were drawn tight as the
strings on a drum, and I had such
cramps that the pain nearly drove me
wild. My feet were cold all the time,
and even with a hot-water bag and
heated bricks I could not get any relief.
"Finally I heard of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills for Pale People, and I began tak
ing them on February 5, 1893. In three
days' time I found that the cords In my
legs began to 'let up,' my .feet began to
get warm, I began to eat and sleep well,
and in one month I had gained six
pounds. The numbness In my -limbs
gradually wore away, and I became a
new man. I can walk and work now,
and nine boxes of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills for Pale People did It. In the
eight years which have passed I have
had no return of my trouble."
Mr. Struble took the one unfailing
remedy and was readily cured. Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People
will not only effect a cure In cases simi
lar to the one above, but are an unfail
ing specific for all diseases arising from
shattered nerves or impure or impoverished-blood.
- ,
Dr.-Williams' Pink Pills for Pale Peo
ple are sold at 50 cents a box, or six
boxes for $2 50, and may be had of all
druggists, or direct by mall, postpaid,
from Dr. Williams Medicine Co., Sche
nectady, N. T. '
The town is surrounded by thick clouds
of cinders and vapor, and at times It is
Impossible to see more than six feet.
Cinders are also falling at Fort de
France, and the population became
alarmed but Is now more quiet. Toward
5 o'clock In the evening here breathing
becomes quite difficult, and horses show
signs of disquiet.
The United States cruiser Cincinnati
and the Government tug Potomac are at
Fort da France.
Bodies Will Be Recovered.
FORT DE FRANCE, Martinique. May
19. A party from here has gone to St.
Pierre on the British steamer Indefati
gable, carrying with them, coffins for the
purpose of recovering the bodies of the
family of Thomas T. Prentiss, the late
United States Consul at that place, who
was killed In the disaster. The inter
ment of the remains will -take ptacc here
and will be conducted with military hon
ors. The Indefatigable brought 120 toiu
of supplies.
There was another eruption from Mount
Pelee yeaterday, and ashes fell here. The
volcano Is still violently smoking, and
there are no signs of Its ceasing.
The United States cruiser ClncinnaU and
the United States Government tug Po
tomac will be stationed here indefinitely.
The Potomac will shortly go to the Island
of Guadaloupe to bring furniture, books,
etc., from the office of the United States
Consul there, Louis H. Ayme.

Still Throwing; Oat Cinders.
PARIS, May 19. Governor L'Huerre,
of Martinique, has cabled to the Colonial
Minister, M. de Crals, announcing that
Mount Pelee continues to throw up im
mense quantities of cinders, which, owing
to a change in the direction of the wind,
are now covering the country districts of
the islands. Violent explosions have
