W. Jones, Wlnchendon, Mass. Though Coroner Shrady and the po , lice repeated today their declarations that the young woman's death was en tirely an accident, the belief that it may not have been such was still held by the outside world. There were sev .eral discrepancies In the stories told by officials, physicians and intimates of - the bouse. ' . i It was said Friday, after the dlscov ry of the body, that the cause of the accident was an old rubber tuba con necting a gas reading lamp wit the wan bracket,' Because-of the age and poor quality of this it had alinned from the pipe at the foot of the lamp when Mrs. Burden turned the cock and pushed the lamp away from her bed, it was reasoned. . "It was not an old tube; it was, I , thought, brand new," admitted Coroner , Sbradv when questioned today. "It was , a rubber tube covered with green in- . ruiauun ana wouna at tne end bv wire. This wire was loose when I found it and the tube was Just dangling beyond the mouth of the pipe on the lamp. My theory is that when Mrs. Burden pushed the lamp away this became somewhat . detached and the gas pressure further detached it." - Arthur Bcott Burden, a brother of the dead society leader's husband, de clared the suicide theory altogether absurd.

Strong pa trols guard the streets. Reserve forces are held in readiness for Instant serv ice, though qpacealed from public view. Nearly all pflfllc squares are guarded. The entire garrison is under arms. In other cities of the country similar prep arations have been made to meet outbreaks. For' several days there have been ru mors that the revolutionary outbreaks were planned to organise at the time of the assassination of King Carlos. Mili tary preparations were made and the time for the uprising fixed. Government spies reported In the last few days that plans were laid to start uprisings in several parts of the kingdom at the same time, ah details nave not been exposod but enough was discovered to cause the belief that tomorrow Is the Oay for the outbreak. At Betupil serious outbreaks have al ready occurred. Few details reached here, but it is known that the people are in extremely dangerous mood. A gunboat was sent to Betupil today.' oporto is anotner danger point, where demonstrations against the government are to be expected at any time. In case of a real conflict, how strong the government would prove Is problem atical. The outcome is extremely un certain. The loyalty of the army is gravely doubted. The BolJlcrs have not been overlooked by the revolutionary leaders and the ranks aro honeycombed, with dissatisfaction. A decisive victory for the revolutionaries would probably be followed by wholesale desertions to the popular cause. The danger Is well appreciated by the boy king's advisers and this is the cause of the military precautions to crush any . attempted uprising in Its lncip lency.

Washington, Feb. 22. An unsuccess ful attempt was made in the house to day by Representative Heflin of Ala bama and the southern contingent to provide Jim crow street cars in the District of Columbia. The effort engen dered a debate of such sharpness that it sent the crowded galleries into dlsor cfcsr and brought from the speaker a caution that orators must be careful in the language they used. Heflln's amendment to a street rail way bill brought from Foster of Ver mont a protest against "attempting to array one race against another on Washington's birthday." Heflin s retort that Washington would "heartily support the amendment if he were in congress today, brought the first demonstration. Madden of Illinois denounced the amendment as "un-American" and Campbell of Kansas cried, "Shame on Heflin and his party in the south!" His declaration that his children went to school and church, with negroes, brought a chorus of yells from the Democratic side. Heflin wanted to know if he would marry his daughter to a negro. "no. no. no: snouted camDbeii as he leaped across the center aisle and con fronted his tormenting interrogators, his face pale with emotion. xnere is a airrerence between social and political equality, and there are white men mat l would not cermlt mv daughter to marry," Campbell shouted. Simms of Pennsylvania Dleaded that some other day under general debate "the negro question" be threshed out. Olcott of New York charted the south with not furnishing equal rail road racuities ror negroes and wnttes. Heflln's retort that this was untrue brought admonition of caution from the chair. Ansberry (Democrat) of Ohio had spoken for the amendment but failed to vote. A chorus of Republicans yell ing his name embarrassed the Oh loan. The amendment was defeated, 104 to 67.

As a result of a clash of signals the giant Cunard line steamship Etruria, In starting from her Hudson river pier today, crashed Into and sank the barge Dubois, nearly killing the captain and crew.

Mrs. Tree, wife of the English actor manager, was a passenger on the Etru ria and she was standing near the bow of the boat Just where she could see the pern of the barge's crew. Captain Martell aod bis men leaped from their wrecked boat to the May, a coal lighter, nearby, half dressed and carrying their shoes and hats in their hands. It looked for a few seconds as though some of the passengers would Jump overboard and-the women seemed to fear that all their friends ashore would be crushed to death.
