VOLCANO IN OltKAT SALT LAKE.
t Causes the
Witters to Beeth and
Hull.
R.vir Lakh, March 1. What appears
to be a genuine volcauo has' burst forth
i tho Great Salt Lako a short distance
south of Promontory station, on the Cen
tral Piiciiic road. The phenomenon re
cently appeared in the shape of a small
cloud hovering ovor tho water about a
ilo from shore. It gradually increased
I" dimensions and shot up so high in
tho air that it is now visible a great die
tanco, and tho water in the vicinity bolls
and seethB and the spiny is thrown in
the air for hundreds of feet. The vol
cano is situated in the Trig arm of the
lake, ou the west side of a range of
mountains and is distinctly visible from
Brigham City.
The phenomenon is accounted for by
the fact that for six months there have
been felt several slight shocks of earth
quake in these regions, aud it is sup
posed tho fire and lava which have been
confined in the subterranean depths
have how found an outlet and are spend
ing their force. A number of people
have witnessed the phenomenon, which
causes, great anxiety in the vicinity.
CMiMENCV IS DENIED.
The Santa Fo Murderer Must I'ay the
Death l'eualty.
Washington, March 1. The president
has refused to interfere further in tho
case of the murderers at Santa Fe, N.
M. February 20th he granted a Btay of
the death sentence for thirty days, or
until March 23d. Now, having investi
gated tho case, he refuses a pardon,
saying :
"I am quite clear that these convicts
are not entitled to executive clemency in
any form. I believe the homicide of
which they were convicted was a cold
blooded and deliberate assassination,
and that every consideration in favor of
peace, good order and personal safety
demands the execution of their sen
tence." l'realtleiit Woodruff's Jilrtliduy.
Salt Laki:, March 1. An immense
crowd gathered at the tabernacle to wit
ness the ceremonies and celebration of
the 90th, birthday of President Woodruff,
of the Mormon church. The venerable
president received an ovation when he
took the stand to deliver his address of
welcome. Touching upon politics. Pres
ident Woodruff said:
"I want to say upon this occasion, be
fore God, the angels and all men that
are before me, that I never in ono in
stance have known any leader of this
church to attorapt to dictate tho affairs
of state as a member of the church."
At the conclusion of the exercises a
reception was given, lasting an hour.
The anniversary exercises were attended
by several persons, who were baptized
by President Woodruff, in Great Britain
30 years ago, when he was filling a mis-
sioii to that country.

Onvorninent Arranging to Transport
Troup to l'lorldu Const.
Chicago, March 1. A special to the
Tribune from Tallahassee, Fla., says:
From an incautious word dropped by
a prominent state otticial Here, it is as
certained that the government has been
making arrangements for some days past
to forward the quick transportation of
the federal troops through Florida in
case of "necessity." The story is that
the railroads have been asked to com
municate wiih Northern lines aud have
special trains ready at a moments no
tice to transport government troops to
all points on the seacoast. It is also
stated that the Washington authorities
have been in communication with the
state officers in regard to calling out the
state troops if necessarv, and to pro
vide for their quick transportation to
points needed.
It is understood this has been going
on very quietly for the past week, and
that all arrangements have been com
pleted, so that at a moment's notice
troops could be thrown into Tampa, Key
West, St. Augustine and other coast
towns and Jacksonville. At St. Augus
tine, it is said, the troops have been
warned to be in instant readiness for
movement. The guns at the fort there
have been put in working condition and
the troops have been practicing with
them constantly for the past week or so.
Several torpedoes have been placed in
the outer harbor at Key West, St. Au
gustine and Tampa bay. The state
troops' officers have been worked up
over the reports of being called up for
duty, and several have sent their volun
tary offers to the governor. The state
troops are composed of twenty com
panies of about 100 men each, and four
batteries.
There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all othe diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Science haB nroven catarrh
A,o be a constitutional disease, and there
fore requires constitutional treatment.

Spanish Captain-General is Keportvd to
Uuve ICuslRuud.
New Yokk, March 1. A dispatch to
the Herald from Havana says :
It is learned on the very highest au
thority that Captain-General Weyler
has forwarded his resignation to the
Spanish government at Madrid. Tho
captain-general, it is said, will leave the
island as soon as possible, probably in
about three weeks.
This decisive step General Weyler de
termined to take as soon as he heard of
the releasa of Julio Sanguilly. Tho captain-general
said he would resign if the
crown interfered with his policy with re
gard to prisoners, especially Americans,
and he wa9 incensed beyond measure at
being ignored in the negotiations carried
on by tho Spanish government in the
case of the notable captive. Sanguilly,
was released on Friday.
It is reported that General Ramon
Blaucoy Aronas, the Marquis of Peiia
Plata, may be appoiuted to succeed Gen
eral Weyler.
