Ice jams in the 8t. Lawrence river are flooding many houses in Montreal suburb«. Russia has demanded that Japanese instructors with the Chinese army be dismissed. The passage of the Yalu by the Jap anese will not be strongly opposed by the Russians. President Pro Tem Frye, of the sen ate, and Speaker Cannon, of the house, have signed the 1905 fair bill. Colorado m ilitia officers, adjudged in contempt of court for action in the strike, declare they w ill defy the judge. A battleground has been picked out by the Russians in the interior of Man churia, were they propose to slaughter the Japanese. The agitation in Spain over France’ s acquiring a firm hold on Morocco does not cause anxiety in France, as it is believed the irritation w ill subside without straining the relation between the two countries. Russia is short of men for her fleets. Spain is very bitter because of the Anglo-French treaty. Easter services in Russia are much more impressive than usual this year. Queen Alexandra’s persistent urging makes Britain ready to deal with Rus sia. Burke Cockran, of New York, says the house is losing caste and bids it wake up. Barbara Street Car Overturned and Five Killed Outright. Santa Barbara, Cal., April 13.— A street car loaded with passengers re turning to town fiom the Old Mission ran off the track at Garden and Mis sion streets today and five deaths have resulted. A ll of the dead were Santa Barbara people. Over 20 of the pas sengers were injured, many of them being frightfully mangled. Over half of the injured had bones broken about the body and not a few of them suffered serious fractures of the skull. The accident was due to a defect in the brake apparatus, was as revealed from an inspection of the car, after the accident. W hile the rear brakes were tightly set against the wheels, tha for ward brakes were of no service because of the breaking of a part of the gear ing. The motorman discovered that some thing was wrong with the car several blocks above the point where the acci dent occurred and endeavored to set the brakes, but failed to check the speed of the car. At the intersection of Garden and Mission streets there is a sharp curve, and the car was moving at its highest speed down a 5 per cent grade when the curve was reached. The car was thrown from the track upon its side, the passngers being thrown in evrey direction. One section of the car was smashed into splinters. Those who were instantly killed and many of those who were most seriously injured were standing upon the guard rail on the side of the car as it crashed into the ditch. As soon as the news of the accident spread throughout the city every avail able physi ian was sent to the aid of the injured and many prominent resi dents of the city were among those who aided the suffering and dying. A majority of the injured were taken to the hospital and the remainder were- iemoved to their homes. VOTELARGESUM American Policy Will Contlnur, No Mat ter II New Treaty Is Made.

Washington, April 13.— The bouse today passed the bill reported by the committee on rivers anil harbors appro priating $3,000,000 for the restoration or maintenance of channels, or for oth er river and harbor improvement. Burton (O .), chairman of the commit tee, in explaining the bill urged the adoption of settled principles with re gard to river and harbor work. Bur gess (Dem., Tex.) and Rsnsdell (Dem., L a .) favored increases in the appropria tion for river and harbor improvement, the former urging that they should be doubled and the latter regarding $100, 000,000 as not too much. Quite large number of bills of minor import ance were passed. The house then went into committee of the whole for the consideration of t'le emergency river and harbor b ill general debate being limited to three hours. Burton, (O .), in charge of the bill, made an explanation of it and gave a general survey of the subject of river and harbor improvements. He said the amounts expended for this purpose, when the vast extent of our waterways was considered, was very small. The system pursued in the United States, he thought, contrasted most unfavorably with those of foreign countries. The bill then was passed without amendments. Under its provisions, the money appropriated becomes imme diately available, and is to be expend ed under the direction of the secretary of war and the supervision of the chief engineers DIFFICULTIES OF IRRIOATION. AUTOS FOR USB IN THE WAR. Ct1INE.SE W ILL BE KEPT OUT. ments the whole subject of the status Oi the Chinese immigration question as it will be after the lapse of existing treaties, has been thoroughlv digested and it can be stated that the adminis tration feels that it has ample w arrant for continuing to enforce the rigid pro visions of the the Chinese exclusion act regardless of the denunciation of the treaty. So far from opening the door to Chinese immigration, the lapse of the treaty, will, it is said, actually render the entrance of Chinese into this country more difficult than while the treaty remained in force. This fact has been pointed out to the Chinese government by Mr. Conger, who has not yet abandoned the effort to induce the Chinese government to reconsider its denunciation. However it is positively stated that the exclusion laws w ill continue to be emorced after December next, whether the treaty expires or not. Attorney General Knox has undei consideration the question of the valid ity of the exclusion law of 1902 in view of the denunciation of the treaty, and he w ill prepare and submit to the pre*' ident an opinion on the subject. Both the president and the attorney general have discussed the matter with mem beis of congress. It is being consid ered, too, by members of both branches of congress, and if it is deemed neces sary some legislative action will be taken on it before adjournment. If it should be concluded that the denuncia tion of the treaty by China would ren der inoperative existing laws regarding Chinese exclusion, the probable course of action will be to attach to one of the pending appropriation bills an amend ment forcing the exclusion of Chinese. Members of congress are generally agreed that no difficulties w ill be ex perienced in passing the legislation if it should be regarded as necessary. JAPAN TO HAVE FINE SHIPS.

Bend— Cline Butte, 15 miles north of Bend, has been found to contain a large mass of gold bearing rock. The whole butte is supposed to be of the same character and there has been quite a rush to locate claims there. There 1« room, however, for less than a dozen mining claims on this butte, but a sim ilar geological formation extends through a string of hills to the west- waid and prospecting is in progress there. The rock is porphyry and quartizite and it carries about $4 in gold and a little silver to the ton. This surface outcrop is considered very promising. The ease with which this rock can be mined gives it value, even at this low grade. It is estimated that at least half its value will be profit. The rock is of the same kind that is found in the Ochoco mines, northeast of Prine- ville. This discovery was made by Otto Retzlaff and C. P. Becker, the latter having spent a year and a half on the Yukon, where he became acquainted with gold mining. Steps are being taken to develop the Cline Butte claims.

Commissioner Dunbar. Salem— An increase of over 10 per cent in the fire insurance business, a decrease of 17 per cent in net premi ums on fire insurance, an increase of 18 per cent in both business and net premiums in life insurance, and the withdrawal of all but three surety com panies, are the most prominent features of the annual report of Insurance Com missioner F\ I. Dunbar. The report covers the year 1903, and was compiled on April 1, as required by law. Though the report shows the healthy industrial growth of the state, as indicated by the increasing fire in surance business, it also shows the de creasing profits caused by unusual fire losses. In the past five years the amount of fire risks written per year has increased about 50 per cent. In 1899 the total as $64,100,000. In 1903 it as $95,500,000. The net premiums for 1903 are less than in 1902, or for any other year since 1898. The fire losses for 1902 were $859,000 and for 1903 $1,314,000, or an increase of almost 100 per cent. Seven companies lost money last year on their insurance business in Oregon. Coles Hot Springs Sanitarium.
