THREE OVER TROUBLE WITH BRITAIN Repeal of Siiver Purchase Clause and Revinion of Wilson Tarift Are the Most Hecent Factors in Sum- moning Legislators, (I'rom a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, Oct. %—(dpecial)—The extru sesslon Of congress Lo meet Monday, November ¥, to consider our trade rela- tions with Cuba will be the fourteenth ex- traordinary session of congress in the 14 years of our nhtional existence. The power vestcd in the president by the constitution & to the convening of congress on extraor- +dinary oocaslons has been exercised by eleven presidents since the adoption of the constitution, namely, John Adams, Jeffer- ®on, Madison Van Buren, Willlam Henry Harrison, Plerce, Lincoln, Hayes, Cleve- land, McKinley and now by Mr. keosevelt. In view of the reasons which prompted the <all of the fourteenth extraordinary session the ratification of the reci- ty with Cuba, it is interesting o look back and to see just what prompted presidont Roosevelt's predecessors in call- ing congress together out of the time fixed by the constitution when it should meet in regular session. The first extraordinary session called by President John Adams convened on Mon- day, May 15, 1797, and was called on ac- count of the suspension of diplomatic inter- courss between the United Btates and France, growing out of the Jay treaty, in relation to the West India possessions. This Was the beginning of the Fifth congress. ‘Weo had no extra session again until the elghth congrees, which was convened by President Jefferson on Monday, October 17, 198, and had direct relation to the purchase of Loulsiana. Some Troubles with Britain. Two congresses later, the Tenth congress, the third extra session was convened by President Jefforson sind had relation to the attack upon Cheasapeake by Leo- pard and the seisire of the alleged de- merters from the British navy under the “right of search” claimed by Great Brit- ain. The recommendation of the passage ©of an “embarge” mct by President Jeffer- #on wag promptly acted upon by the senate and houge, and liberal appropriations were Vvoted for gunboats and for coast and har- bor defensos. We were gettiug ready for w. ®ur second war with Great Britain. Four - the fth congress on November that year to consider questions grow- ing out of our strained relations with Bn- The war spirit of the day was st ly shown in the election of Henry Clay as speaker over W. W. Bibb of Qeorgla, the peace candidate, by a vote of 75 to 3. Dufing this session customs du- ties were doubled, $5,000,000 worth of treas- ury notes were authorized and a 6 per cent loan of $11,000.000 was granted so that when President Madison issued his proclamation of war against Great Britain the govern- ment was as fully prepared for the emer- &ency as possible. The fifth extra sesslon was called in September, 1814 to consider negotlations then on foot with Great Britain for & re- turn to peace or order a more effective propecution of the war. The congress as- wembled in Washington under pecullarly distressing circumstances. The city had been nearly destroyed by the navy and the Army of Great Britajn, The captiol was charred and blackened. Desolation relgned. ‘There was discontent in the New England states oyer the expressed desire of some of the leaders of the president's cabinet to atill further prosecutc the war. A great treasury deficlency faced the leglalators as they came Into the caplito! of the United States. Fortunately the war was brought | to an end through the treaty of Ghent ana | the bird of poace Apread its wings over our country once more. Finance Requires Attentlo Not again until 1857 was thers reason for an extra sesslon. Presicent Van Buren convened the congress on September 4, 1537, for the purpose of taking cognizance of deficit in the treasury. The only measure of rellet proposed by President Van Buren was the plan of the subtreasury, thereby divoreing the government and all its op- erations from banks. While Van Buren's proposition falled treasury notes were (s- sued and this, though less in amount than recommended by the president, brought temporary relief. On May 31, 1841, an extraordinary session of Congress was called by President Wil- liam Henry Harrison, to take up matters in relation to the finance of the country. And 1t was during the Twenty-seventh congress that the first distinctly national bank act ‘was passed. The Thirty-fourth congress having failed to make apropriations for the army un extra session was called by President Plerce meeting three days after the close ©of the first session of that congress. ‘The ninth extra session began the famous Thirty-seventh congress, called by Presi- deut Lincoln, on acount of the opposition to .aws of the United States on the part of cerfain of the southern states, who were in secession. During this session many ini- portant laws were passed increasing the military and naval establishments, revising the tarl® and levying a direct and income tax. Sixtoen years later, in 1577, President Hayes called the Forty-fifth congress to- gother In extraordinary session because of the fallure of the Forty-fourth congress during its second session to make appro- priations for the army. The final adjourn- ment of the Forty-fifth congress without making the usual appropriations for the legislative, exeoutive and ju. \Glelal departments and the support of the army. President Hayes convened the first session of the Forty-sixth congress With an extra session on March 18, 10, The twelfth extra sesslon was convened by President Cloveland on August 7, 1%, for the purpose of repealing the purchasing clause of the Bherman silver act. T Fifty-Afth congreas began with an extra wession convened on the proclamation of President McKinley for the purpese of re- vising the Wilson-Gorman bill passed by preceding cougress.

VIENNA, Oct. %.—(New York World Ca- blegram—8pecial Telegram.)—Crown Prin- cess Marie of Roumania has arrived here accompanied by young Waldorf Astor and Fhis sister, Pauline Astor, who have been on ~xher long visit to the Roumanian court sharest. They are having a very * Sgogether in Vienna. The crown % “gnjece of King Bdward, belng y Miier of his brother Alfred, Sizh and of Saxe-Coburg and Go 4 was born in England and married "<® & Prince Ferdinand of Roumania teri years ago. She is the mother of three children. A Roumanian court official tells the World correspondent that the story that Miss Astor s betrothed to Foreign Minis- ter Bratino of Roumania s quite dis- carded, although originally it was cred- ited, and that young Astor really is the persona gratissima in the crown princess’ household. The crown princess is extremly clever, dashing and unconventional, almost, deed, a realization of Offenbach's grand duchess. She “rules the roost” absolutely at Bucharest, despite the frowns of Queen Elizabeth (Carmen Sylva). In Viennese court soclety people merely shrug thelr shoulders when some fresh manifestation of the crown princess’ dis- regard of the conventionalities s men- tioned. Now they are asking: “Who is this good looking young American that is ever at her side?" The visit of King Leopold to Emperor Franels Joseph was made very disagreeable for the Belgian king, owing to the studied cool demeanor of the emperor. When Leopold stepped from the railroad car he advanced effusively tq the emperor, evi- dently intended to kiss him on both checks. But the emperor held him stiffly at a distance, giving him two fingers to shake. When Leopold, looking awkward In the unaccustomed costume of an Au duki, trian colonel, drew bimself back, his shako | fell off and was handed to him by a foot- man. He also had considerable trouble Wwith his cavalry sword, as he had to carry & stout cane in his left hand to support himself, as he has grown so feeble. He realized painfully that the whole thing was @ frost, especially when he saw not a single decoration anywhere in his honor. The emperor has strongly advised Leo- pold to make friends with Countess Lonyay and end a palntul scandal before Europe. But Leopold's vindictiveness toward his family now amounts to a mania, and it is not belleved that he will act upon the emperor's advice. The Countess Lonyay Is King Leopold's second daughter. Her first husband was Archduke Rudolph, Emperor Francls Joseph's only son. COUNTERFEIT AMERICAN COIN Italian Police Capture Members of Soclety Who Counterfeit For- elgn Money.

CHIEF OF BUREAU MAKES HIS REPORT Owned Twenty-Five Are Being Built, WASHINGTON, Oct. 2.—Rear Admiral Bowles, chief of the bureau of construc- tion and repair, in his annual report to the secretary of the navy reviews at length the progress made by this government in naval construction during that period. It is shown that the following additlons have been made to the effeciive force of the navy during the year: One battleship, four monitors, twelve tor- pedo boat destroyers, one torpedo boat and seven submarine torpedo boats. The lst should have been increased by two battle- ships and five crulsers, the report states, but owing to strikes and other causes thelr completion was delayed. The report states that the “rate of progress of vessels under construction at the present time presents some yery encouraging Indications for com- pletions of many of the most jmportant con- tracts, but, considered as a whole, the pro- gress made during the last fiscal year has been very unsatistactory.” Speaking of the battleship Connecticut, which is being built at a government yard, and which is a sister ship of Loulslan: being built by a private company, the re- port says that although slightly behind Loulstana, the progress made has been well up to the present previous average of con- tract.

FATHER KILLS TWO CHILDREN Indiana Farmhand Murders Boys Who Lived with His Estranged Wite, MARION, Ind., Oct. 2%5.—Jesse McClure, a farmhand, murdered his two sons, aged § bodies in a cornfield. While a mob was forming to capture and lynch him McClure drove on a run to this city and gave him- selt up. He has been secreted by the aue thorities, who fear attempted violence. McClure lived near Frankton and had separated from his wife a year ago, she refusing to live with him and returning, with her children, to her father's home. At noon today McClure hired a rig at Elwood and drove to the father's farm. He found { the children playing in the front yard and |induced them with candy to take u ride { with him. He drove a mile up the road, | carried the children to a fence corner and hot them with a revolver. The older one | was found dead a few minutes later and the younger was dying, a plece of the candy | still being in his mouth. McClure fled and | was pursued by a crowd of young farmers, | The alarm was given and from ali sur- rounding towns armed pursuers started, McClure succeeded in reaching the jail here without being stopped. Intense excitement | prevails. To the jail turnkey, McClure admitted the murder of his two children and said he had killed them because his wife had left him | | and retused to see him.

ROME, Oct. 25.—The pope appeared before 2000 Venetian residents in Rome in the court of San Tamaso today and was en- thusiastically recelved. He spoke to the Venetians most affably, saying he enjoyed hearing spoken around him the Venetian dialect, for it made bim feel younger and reminded him of his entire life from child- hood. Hymns were sung and addresses were delivered and the ovation given to the pontiff was notable. After it the pope admitted the leading personages of the Venetian colony to the hall of inseriptions.

MEN IN CHARGE SAID TO BE CARELESS Superintendent and General Forema of Works Are Placed Under Are rest Pending Result of the . Coroner's Inquest. NEW YORK, Oct. %.—~Ten lives were lost by the cave-in of the roof and walls of the subway tuunel at One Hundred and Ninety- ! fith street last night and four persons were badly injured. All of the dead and injured were workmen and most of them Itallans. The following Is the list of lead: TIMOTHY SULLIVAN, foreman. WILLIAM SCHUETTE, electriclan. GUISEPPE BARONE. SBTANZIONE BRUNE. LOUIS TIPPIO. Five unidentified Italian laborers. Injured: Juno Pasquale, Batasto Velan- tio, Alphonse Armatello, Juno Basko. The accident was the most disastrous |that has occurred in the construction of the subway. At the point where the cave- {in occurred a gang of twenty men were at jwork in the tunnel, which is about 110 feet |below the surface. Rufus C. Hunkagen, | superintendent of the tunnel work, said today that two converging seams had ap- peared In the roof of the tunnel during the day work of Saturday. The presence of these seams, however, was not believed |to indicate any more dangerous character of rock than had previously been encoun- tered, although it was thought necessary to prop the roof with a number of up- right timber braces. Three Blasts Exploded. The tunnel was being bored by opening |a perpendicular embrasure in the face of the bore and blasting the sides to the right |and left of the embrasure. Three blasts were arranged by the drillers, the holes being charged well toward the root. The drillers withdrew and the three blasts were set off in rapld succession by electricity, |loosening large quantities of earth and |rock. The drillers say that about ten min- utes elapsed to allow the smoke to clear away before Timothy Sullivan, the fore- man, and Electriclan Schuette advanced, the latter intending to string wires and hang electric lamps to light the way. They were followed by sixteen workmen. The vanguard of the gang, had reached the broken stone when a rumbling sound was heard. It grew in volume with lightning rapldity. Those in the rear had just time to turn about and run when, with a deaf- ening crash, hundreds of tons of rock fell on the men at the face of the boring. The drillers and two or three Itallans who were out of reach of the deluge of rock were knocked flat on thelr faces by the rush of wind driven through the tunnel. en in Charge Arrested. ‘When found the heads of the men in most cases were toward the exit, indicating that they had plunged to the north when the rush of stone was heard in an effort to es- cape. Bach body was removed only by the lifting of tons upon tons of rock. The last two bodies found were taken out at 10 &'clock this morning. Rufus C. Hunt, superintendent, and Rich- ard Beyers, general foreman for John B, McDonald, the contractor who is bullding the tunnel, were arrested as soon as they reached the scene of the disaster, but, be- ing experts in tunnel work and blasting, were permitted to direct the work of res- cue, Later a magistrate remanded them to the coroner, who held them in $10,000 bail each. Coroner Jackson sald he belleved the ac- cident was caused by criminal negligence. | The seams which appeared Saturday are | belleved to have been about the great rock which fell directly In the ceiiter of the ex- cavation. As soon as this boulder acting as a keystone was reicased the stones on both sides, which had been loosened, fol- lowed It. The fall of stone continued some minutes until all the dislodged pleces had fallen into the tunnel. From men who had worked in the tun- nel it was learned that props had been used to hold up the roof. The heavy tim- bers, 12xi2 Inches, were crumbled like of the cave-in, | SAVE CREW WITH DIFFICULTY Fishing Schooner Goes Ashore and Life Savers Are Endangered in Rescue.

For a short time there was a deadlock, but Adjutant General Mayes stepped into the office, cer- tifled to the facts in each ease, supplied the certificates to the mustering officers, who turned them in with their muster rolis, and the national guardsmen were assured of their pay before leaving for home. The maneuvers for tomorrow will com- prise the attack and defense of an en- trenched position. Brigadier General C. C. Carr will have command of the attacking force and Colonel Steever of the defense. The Intrenchments for the problem have been constructed by Major Leach of the engineers,' who was 8o successful last year in conducting the defense in a similar problem.

Dietrich spent a few hours in Omaha, having just returned from his Alaskan tour. "“I just came In," sald the senator, “to answer the advertisement in The Bee in- quiring for my whereabouts. I returned by way of Kansas City and my daughter went through to Aurora, Ill, to visit friends. I £0 back to Lincoln and Hastings today and will remain in Nebraska until it becomes necessary for me to go to Washington for the extra sessfon. “I could tell you a whole lot about Alaska, but I have not the time. Alaska is a great country, but it's agricultural possibilities have been greatly exaggerated. I saw Pat Mullen up in Juneau and also N. V. Harlan. Both of them are doing very well. Mullen's son has a position in the store of a big mining company there. “My northern dbstination was Point Bar- row, but we had to stop about sixty miles this side, because of an icepack which pre- vented the boat from going further. 0t course I am glad to get back. T can't speak of the political situation, as 1 will have to famillarize myself with what has been done since I left five months ago. I am at the service of the party managers to do what I ean for the success of the repub- lican ticket." BETTER SERVICE TO DUNDEE Improvements Suggest that ¥ Cars May Soon Make Through Runs. The street car company has a force of men at work straightening, releveling and | relaying the track of the Dundee line from Fortieth and Farnam to Forty-elghth and Dodge streets. New rails of a more modern and heavier type are being put In, and, al- though the company will not divulge any information, it looks though the time is not long distant when the Farnam street cars will make the trip through to Dundee. A cross-over switch also has been put in at Fortleth and Farnam streets, and this will avold delay In the running time of the cars, which has heretofore’ been a hin- drance when any work was done in that locality. Dundee residents have been anxiously awaiting the extenglon of the Farnam line for the last year, and promises have been | made from time to time that the service was to be extended in the near future. This looks as though their hopes will be realized. Employes of the company say that if the cars run through there will Itkely be several new ones put on, which will afford residents along the Farnam line quicker and better service.
