Special to Journal.
Washington, D, C April 11. The
president's message read today. No
change from summary sent out by
associated press last week.
Madrid, April 11. Minister Wood
ford and suite left Madrid today un
der an escort. The Spanish conserva
tives pledge hearty support to the Lib
erals in case of war.
Havana, April 11. General Gomez
has notified the United States that
the Cubajs won't accept an armis
tice except on the basis of absolute In
dependence. Key West, April, 11. Monitors of
the Key West Meet have been ordered
to the Sands Keys light house, so as to
be within striking distance of Cuba,
Washington, April 11. It Is re
ported here that Minister Woodford
has left Madrid. The President's
message has been delivered to con
gress and was referred to the commit
tee on foreign relations without de
bate. ADDITION TO THE MESSAGE.
At the close of the second cabinet
meeting last night, on the best au
thority It was stated the meeting
was devoted wholly to consideration
of the message's addition, necessitated
by the receipt of a latter note
from Spain adylsing this government
of the granting of an unconditional
armistice. The suffix to the presi
dent's message merely recites this
latest devolopement of the Spanish
situation, giving the substance of the
Spanish note and "recommending it
to the earnest consideration of con
gress." Otherwise the matter stands
unchanged.
The Spanish note did not alter
either the message or the situation.
"It Is merely," said a member of
thecablent, '-what Spain has been
aiding for all along more time. It
docs not touch the situation, and the
president's message is left precisely
as it was, merely stating the fact of
this latest development."
Another member said after tbe
meeting:
"Our meeting last night was for the
final reading of the message.
The president asks that he bo given
authority to use the array and navy to
bring about peace in the island of
Cuba, and Insure them a stable gov
ernment. Ad argument is made
against the recognition of the Inde
pendence of the insurgents for the
reason that there Is lacking the es
sential features 0! an Independent
people,
It is said some members of the cabi
net recommended further delay,
simply to observe the practical effect
of the armistice, but they were out
voted by the majority, who thought
the president had waited long
enough.
London, April 11. A dispatch to
the Mail from Blurrltze says:
Tbe queen regent and Senor Sa-
A Hot Time in
That's what there is in store, but don't burn your fingers
on so-called bargains, closing out sales and cheap goods, Before
you invest a cent, investigate our stock and low cut prices,

THE
gasta had conferences with leading
men, Including Senor Castclar and
General Holcvlejas, as to the strong
est government for Spain If war? hould
be declared. It was the almost
unanimous opinion that Sagasta
would remain In power, but there is
little doubt expressed that It would
not be long before a military govern
ment would be constituted, probably
under General Campos.
The only volco raised against an
other. vise unanimous resolution to
support Senor Sagasta was the voice
of General Weyler, who said:
"I do not believe In the probability
of war, for the reason that 1 am sure
Senor Sagasta will yield to American
Impositions."
It Is announced that 20,000 troops
are going to Porto Rice. A second
torpedo flotilla Is expected to leave
Cadiz Sunday for St. Vincent and
Porto Rice.
Another naval squadron is being
formed with the newly bought jbips,
and some fast liners of the Spanish
transatlantic company.
New York, April 11. A Tribune
special from Washington says:
The navy department has received
information that the Spanish torpedo
flotilla purchased 600,000 tons of coal
St. Vincent, Cape Verd Islands, and
Is now ready for sea, awaiting orders.
Not only did each of the six torpedo
boats till their bunkers, but the ac
companying transport .ship laid in a
full supply of fuel.
It Is believed hero that the flotilla
was preparing to resume Its voyage to
the West Indies when the situation
became so acute several days ago, and
that it is now held under orders from
Madrid in readiness to return directly
to the Canaries and receive further
reinforcements and protection from
Cadiz.
So long as it stays In port it causes
no particular concern at the navy de
partment, but should it sail with an
unknown destination the strategy
board will strongly urge the Immedi
ate dispatch of the flying squadron
foraciulseln the vicinity of Porto
Rice to intercept the little fleet in
any attempt to reach a base of sup
plies near tills continent or to effect a
Junction with the;Vizcaya and the
Oquendo, which were still at San
Juan de Porto Rice Friday.
Since Sunday the United States has
no consular officers in Spanish ports
to communicate tbe movements of
vessels, but a comprehensive system
will go into operation for securing
trustworthy information promptly.
New Yohk, April 11. A Herald
dispatch from St. Thomas says:
So serious has the situation become
In San Juan de Porto Rice that the
United States consul there, P. C.
Hanna, has been ordered to thin
Island, where the sovereignty of Den
mark will Insure his safety. Fearing
an outbreak against foreigners, cspec
sally against Americans. Consul
Hanna and all the members of the
American colony spent the night
on the British steamer Virginlus.
They did not dare toremaln In their
homes, not knowing what direction
the fury of the inflamed populace
might take.
Military rule which always pre
vails In Porto Rice, lias now become
stringent. Tbe censor will not pass
any news and 1 am forced to use
special boats to this Island to file my
dispatches, Even with the greatest
efforts, the police and troops have not
been able to prevsnt bloodshed.
Wylcrlsm is blamed for the failure
of autonomy and .the troubles follow
ing. Tbe elections are known to have
been falsified, the military forces
taking possession of thepolling booths
to insure tho buccess of their candi
dates. Tbe indignation of the people at the
government forcibly imposed upon
them Is beyond bounds. The number
of persons in the prisons throughout
the island nas oecn increased 00 per
cent. There have been riots In the
principal towns Ponce, Aqulldalla,
Acaye and Vega Baya. The arrival of
a torpedo fleet from Spain, It Is be
lieved, would cause an uprising
against both Amerlcaosjind British If
they were not already afely away be

A fact that lends horror to t)io fear
ful tragedy Is that It may never be
known with any degree of accuracy
Just how many Uvea were sacraflced,
who they were and or where they
came from. Many a poor fellow lies
burled where no human aid can reach
him, and where his remains must rest
until the summer sun melts the tons
of snow and ice under which lie lies
burrled.
Upon tho crpwded trail no record
was kept of the living, toiling mass,
braving hardships and facing death
itself in the mad rush for gold.
The work of rescue has continued
night and day ever since laBt Sun
day, being gradually systematize and
consequently meeting with better ro
suits. Thus far the work hus been
confined to the outskirts of the bllde
in the hope of rescuing those who are
injured, but not as yet dead. The
main portion of the avalanche, which
is estimated to bo 50 feet deep and 150
yards long, lias not yet been touched.
If there are any bodies underneath
they cannot be rescued In time to save
lire.
As Foon as recovered, the bodies are
carried to Sheep Camp, where an liu
provlsed morgue has been constructed
Some have been removed for inter
ment or for shipment to relutlyebin
the states.
The work of retcue has been orderly
und systematic. A public meeting
was held and committees were ap
pointed to search for the dead and
care for the wounded,
The accident was one that could
not have been foreseen, and it is one
that Is likely to happen at any time
whenllko conditions exist, although
it is stated that some warning of the
lmpenoiDg disaster was given oy tne
Indian packers, who are said to have
deserted the trail when the heavy

ANOTHER WOOLEN MILL FIRE.
The T. Kay Plant at Waterloo Burned to
the Ground Saturday Evening.
ThoThos. Kay woolen mill plant
seems doomed to destruction, through
the agency of that dred element the
Arc.
Saturday evening tho company's
entire plant at Waterloo and the ad
Joining hotel were entirely consumed
by hre that Usupposed to have had
Its origin In tho boiler room.
The loss will amount to about SoO,
000 and there is an insurancoof $25,000.
Tho Waterloo woolen mill has been
In operation since 1804. In that year
Thomas Kay & Co. purchased from
the Waterloo Development Company
the knitting mill at that place. New
machinery was purchased, and the
knitting plant concerted Into a
woolen mill. The articles of manu
factures since theday the mill started
up have been cloth, blankets, robes,
flannels and macktnaws. The mill
furnished a large quantity of mack
Inaw goods for the Alaska trade the
past winter. The principal markets
for the product of the mill have been
Portland and San Francisco. Tho an
nual output was valued at $100,000 or
moie. Since the rcceDt tire In Salem
mills the Waterloo mill has been
taxed to till their orders. Saturday's
lire wll throw double work on theSa
lem lull'.
The principal stockholder In tho
Waterloo mill, who own altogether
about nine-tenths of the stock,, are:
Thomas Kay Dr. Jessup, J. M.
Wallace, P- P. Bishop and Squire
Furrur, of this city, and J. K. Weath
erford, of Albany.
Thus. Kuv piesldcnt and manager
of the T, Kay Woolen Mill Co. re
turned Sunday from tho scene of the
tire and was seen this morning, no Is
satisfied the loss will approximate
$50,000. While tho Insurance Is but
$25,000.
The building was a framo structure
and was of tho same dimensions as
that of the local mills prior to the
Hrc some two years ago. Not only
was the building Itself burned but
five of the half dozen now looms that
were received only Wednesday from
the east and valued at $1,000 were
also destroyed while about 50,000
pounds of wool was also consumed In
the conllagrutlon.
Tho company's fire apparatus was
placed in operation but the lire soon
reached the belt that was connected
with the pump thus doing away with
all the avallablo tire protection.
Tho loss is a very seyero one to the
company as the amount of work done
oy rue Waterloo nun last montii by
far excelled that done during any other
one month since the company pur
chased the mill.
Asked as to what the company's
plans were as regards replacing tho
Waterloo mill, Mr. Kay said that it
wus impossible for him to say at
present. It is probable however that
the company may rc-bulld at that
point us tho water-power afforded
there Is excellent.
Butchering Continues,
Key West, Fla., April U. A let
ter recelyed In Ilayanu from Marcos

that a number of reconcentrados who
tried to leave that city for the fields

Thursday.
They cumped at Escambra and be

village sprung at Escambra, almost
in sight of Santa Clara. They had
absolutely nothing with which to be

beyond their reach. All were cheer

Spaniards have been unable to take

Oregon Legislature
Governor Lord May Convene
an Extra Session.
Simon's Promises to Support Him for
Renominatlon Were Broken.
The Portland Tribune, (Mitchell
Republican organ,) has following In
Us Sunday Issue which discloses the I
possibility of
A SPECIAL SESSION.
There may yet be an extra session
of the legislature. That Is the latest
political rumor, and It comes from
sources that arc in close touch with
Governor Lord. A dispatch was re
ceived from Salem last night to the
effect that Governor Lord, on learn
ing that the Simon county conven
tion in this city yesterday had thrown
him down, was seriously considering
tbe advisability of calling the legisla
ture together.
The Slmon-Scott-Cirbctt-Flrst Na
tional hank association of politicians
has abandoned Governor Lord. That
means that there will be trouble. They
have throwu linn oyer after tho
stauochust and strongest promises
made at tho last session of tho legis
lature that ho would receive their
support at the state convention for
renominatlon.
Uhe deal between Governor Lord
and Mr. Simon and Mr.Corhctt is well
known. One of the considerations of
the governor's appointment of Mr.
Corbctttothe United State" senate
was that tho Slmon-Corbett forces of
Multnomah county should support
htm for renominatlon. That was tho
bargain made at Salem during the
winter of last year.
Governor Lord has confidently fig
ured upon tho Simon aid to secure re
nominatlon. It has been his main re
liance. He would never have ap
pointed Mr. Corbett unless he had the
most posltlye assurances of Individual
support.
But Governor Lord has been thrown
down hard. lie has been sacrificed
to Mr. Simon's political necessities.
That Is, ho has learned, llker others,
that a Simon political promlso Is a
thing of variable value. Hero Is tho
way In which Mr. Simon's county con
vention has fulfilled Mr. Corbctt's and
Mr. Simon's promises to him.
-rue uimon piatiorm uocs not in
struct tho delegation to the state
convention for Mr. Gccr, because
that would bo a little too open. It
says that he would bo "acceptable
to.thc Republicans of Multnomah
county" which la an attempt to fool
Governor Lord. The explanation to
him when he shall demand it will be
that it is no more than the truth that
Mr. Geer would be acceptable. But a
man of tho governor's experience in
politics will readily ask why his numo
could njt have beon used Instead of
Mr, Geer's. It Is a half-hearted In
dorsement of Mr. Geer, with an
tempt to fool Governor Lord.
Mr. Simon lias thus sacrificed
governor to try to savo himself.
at-
tlie
He
felt that It was necessary to endorso
Mr. Geer In order to sccuro his aid to
ward seating his delegation In tho
state convention. Ho knows that a
falluroto Indorse Mr. Geer would an
tagonize his friends.

Mr. Occr's friends will probably seo
that the perfunctory lndorsment has
been given simply to secure their aid
It is an acknowledgment that they
can nominate their man Without Mr.
Slmon'a aid.
Mr. Corbett and tho gentlemen ,who
arc dependent in politics upon.the
liberal size or his sack, never Intended
to make good their promises. They
wero merely given because of the ne
cessities of tho situation. They&uc
cccdcd In holding up the last leglsla
ture'.for 40 days; then they Had Gover
nor Lord appoint Mr. Corbett, and
promise to not call an extra session,
all under false pretenses. They meant
to keep their promises if it were poll
tic to do so, or to break them if It
wero politic, to do so. Tho necessities
of the new situation require them to
break their promises, und they have
done so.
But Mr. Simons and Mr. Corbett
have broken their promises, and can
no longer bind Goyornor Lord. Ho is
now free to caftan extra session of tho
legislature to pass appropriations
provide for taxes and elect and a sen
ator it it chooses to do so.
Hanged in Effigy.

of local militia. An antl-psaco meet

tho soldiers marched around tho
