PELEE'S HEIGHT 5 UNCHANGED Volcano Shows No Loss | From the Great ! Eru~tion. |A Philadelphia Geocgrapher ! Makes Ascent to the | Crater. e —— a FORT DE FRANCE, Martinique, Junc § a. m.—Professor Angelo Heilpri president of the Philadelphia Geograp! ai Society, here for the Nati Geograph! came into Fort de France last night from his explorations of the crater on the summit of Mont Pelee. The following important points have been settled by Professor Hellprin: The location of the new crater has been accurately detrmind. It is positively known that there has been no overilow of molten matter from the lip of the crater. | ere has been no subsidence of ihe mountain and the height of Mont Pelve is unchanged. The crater does mot con- ain a cinder there has been no catzclysm and topographical altera tion of the coun: The period of violent eruptions has probably ended, althou: the volcano may continue to be quite ac tive for a long time to come. Referring to his expedition Professor Hellprin sald to-day: ! “May 31 we made our ascent of ano. The party consisted of Mr. the vol- Led- better and myself and three colored boys, | We were on muieback. At an aititude of 700 meters we began the ascent of the airete. We passed along its east side and slightly to the north of the mountain. We arrived at the lip of the old crater and former site of Lake Paimiste at 11 o’clock. Here it began raining. Rain clouds and the clouds from the volcano enveioped us and we could not sec ten feet. A terrific thunderstorm had begun and we sat on the edge of the crater for some time, spec- ulating whether the detonations we heard were of thunder or from the volcano. River Runs Boiling. s we afterward found the river Fai- laise to be boiling, the detonations were probably volcanic. local attraction or the electric conditions our compass refused to work. Its vari- ation was about twenty degrees to the eastward, but later we found that it acted normally’ at the lip of the crater. We finally groped our way down that awful amid great electric discharges. At every stej re di | tated into the hideous gorges on either side. *“The extreme top of the volcano is cov- ered with ashes, scoria, boulders and an- gular rocks, which had been ejected from the crater. Further down the mountain is covered with ashes and mud, and these | |are thick on the airete. On our way |down we saw the river Fallaise rushing along with great steam and mud. “At Acier we met George Kennan and his party and determined to attempt.a second ascent the next day, June 1. The ascent made this day with Kennan was re trying and difficult than the one I i previously made with Ledbetter. The ¥ was intensely hot and it was raining. When we reached the old crater it was again enveloped in vapor. velocity, ture of the basin of Lake Pa'miste, taken ' three inches below the surface, was 124 degrees Fahrenheit. Between rifts in the clouds or vapor we could see the crater. Sudderly the vapor cleared away and we made a dash forward. We reached the | edge of the new crater and from where | we stood we could have dropped stones into the white hot mass within. EW CRA | “The new crater is a crevasse running north and south and expanding into a | bowl. This crevasse nearly rifted mountain. It runs transversely to:the old | crater and might be called -a huge gap. From it volcanic material had been freely | erupted. | ““As we stood off the edge of the crater a sublime spectacle began. I have some | conception of what is going on inside the earth, and have been a spectator of na- ture's secret interior works. We were as- sailed with noise. Far below there was a | hissing of steam like that of a thousand | locomotives, as well as violent detona- tions. The principal output of the crater while we were there was steam. The phe- nomenon was limited and was not essen- | tially different from those of other vol- canoes in action. Positive assurance was gained that no molten matter has flowed over the lip of the mew crater. observations taken with the aneroid bar- ometer showed that the height of Mont | Pelee has not changed.

Combes’ ministry will probably include the retention of Delcasse, General Andre | and Leygues, formerly Ministers of For- eign Affairs, War and Public Instruction, respectively; the appointment of “Cruppi, Republican member of the Chamber of Deputies and a well-known lawyer, to the post of Minister of Justice, and that of Deputy Camille Pelletan, Radical Social- | ist, as Minister of Marine. ——— | HUNTINGTON ESTATE ‘ SUES FOR A BIG SUM Executors Seek to Recover Money Said to Have Been Loaned.

BUILDING TRADES MEN SAY BATTLE IS WON Declare the Contractors Will Refuse to Employ Brother Carpen- ters After July 1. The suspended district council of the Brotherhood of Carpenters, which remains Joyal to the Buiiding Trades Council in {ts fight against the local unions of the brotherhood, met last night and consid- ered reports from the agents of the coun- cil. President McCarthy of the Building Trades Council, who attended the meet- ing, stated that the cause of the building trades was progressing favorably. He announced that the contractors would stand by the council in the fight and that after the end of the month they would refuse to employ carpenters who could not show the working card of the build- | ing trades. The millmen also agreed to do likewise. ‘ The brotherhood men declare that this statement is false and that the contract- ors would not take the action pointed out by McCarthy. The contradictory state- ments issued by the contestants cloud the issue materially and it is Impossible to ipredict with certainty what the end of the fight will be. The International Union of Steam En- gincers No. 64 met last night and nom- inated the following candidates for the election to take place next Wednesduy evening: President, W. J.

Recommendations by Grand Chief Companion—Pres- entaticn The fifteenth annual session of the Com- panions of the Forest of America opened ! in Foresters’ Hall, in the Alcazar build- ing, yesterday morning, with Grand Chief Companion Miss Alice Ticoulet in the chalr.

The grand officer suggests that the varigus circles of the order as- certain the cause of each suspension, not nlerely that the member has not paid dues, but the exact reason for non-pay-| ment, and report the same to the execu- tive council.

The grand chief pays a compliment to The Call for notices of the doings of the order, and also makes special mention of the American Foresters’ Review, the of-; ficial organ, for notices and timely sug- | gestions. She recommends that circles instituted within sixty days of the meeting of the Grand Circle be allowed delegates in the grand body; that the office of the grand financial secretary be located in this city; that to prevent wholesale withdrawais frem circles no more than six withdrawal cards be granted during any one month; that the work of organization be contin- ued; that there be no reduction of the per capita tax; that the Grand Circle pro- vide for the entertainment of delegates and grand officers at Grand Circle ses- sions; that the order establish boards >f relief; that an instituting officer be al- lowed a reasonable sum to meet inci- dental expenses incurred in the work >f organizing; that a funeral fund be cre- ated; that boards of deputies be estab- lished; that Memorial day be properly ob- served in all circles, and that the official organ be encouraged. In the afternoon the rest of the report was read and the reports of thé other of- ficers were presented and referred, to- gether with that of the grand chief, to| the committee on distribution. H The report of Grand Representative Mrs. | L. Atwood, who returned to this city as supreme subchief companion, ~was also presented and read, after which that of- ficlal was escorted out of the room and re- turned for presentation to the grand body as a supreme officer, when she was re- ceived with the honor due her rank. She gracefully acknowledged the compliment. J REVISION OF CONSTITUTION. | There was also taken up the report of the special committee appointed at the previous session to revise the constitu- tion. Eighty-eight changes were recom- mended and nearly all were adopted, the majority being to rub off rough edges in the construction of sentences. A law was adopted authorizing a small per capita tax to provide entertainment for grand officers and delegates. At the last held session a committee was appointed to prepare a set of resolu- tions thanking Companion Ernest C. Stock for personal services to the order. Yesterday the chairman of the committee, Mrs. Emma A. Harrington, announced that after due consideration it had been decided to substitute for the proposed res- olutions something that might be more useful, and then, on behalf of the Grand Circle, she presented to the companion a set of silver backed brushes, appropriately engraved and every pilece bearing his monogram. During the noon recess New Century Circle gave a sumptuous lunch to its dele- gates, Mesdames Zeissing, Beversen, Lemme and Drendel. To this were invited all the grand officers and an hour was spent at the festal board. There were no | speeches and the only unusual event was the presentation by Companion Mrs. Wil- kins of a bunch of flowers to. each of the delegates.

LOS ANGELES, June 4—Los Angeles is agog over a function that is to occur to- morrow night. The affair is designed to test how far the uttered dictum of a clergyman shall dominate uppertendom. The hostess-to-be is a woman of charm- ing personality, wealth and unimpeach- eé social standing, but she will give this entertainment to determine just where she stands in the highest social circles of the Angel City. Not long ago the Rev. George Thomas Dowling of Christ Episcopal Church in a sympoglum on the subject, “Divorce,” fald that he would never consent to mar- 1y a divorced person unless he were con- vinced that the person was the innecent party to the divorce suit. Rev. Mr. Dowling officiated at the mar- riage of Edwin J. Earl, the millionaire {fruit man and newspaper owner. There- fore, it is argued by syme, the Rev. Mr. Dowling, by this action,gractically made it appear that, whatever was the cause cf the divorce of Edwin J. Earl and Emily Runyon Earl, the husband was the innocent principal. Because of this it is deemed expedient by Mrs. Emily Runyon Earl to see how much weight the clergyman’s words and actions carry in the exclusive set. Ac- ceptances to the 500 invitations she has sent out for the entertainment to-morrow night in the Hotel Angelus will tell the {afe, and doubtless will convey to the Ckhrist Church pastor.a_ significant hint that his sentiment on divorces and his decision concerning divorcees are not final. WILL PRESERVE HISTORIC CALIFORNIA LANDMARKS New League Holds Meeting, Adopts By-Laws and Fixes the Monthly Dues. The California Historical Landmarks League held its second meeting last night in Balboa Hall, Native Sons’ Building on Mason street, for the purpose of incor- porating and electing directors. The object of the league is the preserva- tion and restoration of the landmarks of the State, notably the old missions and for fostering the study of Californian his- tory in the schools of California with the ho; of ultimately sustaining a chair of California History in the University of California. The evening was taken up with the reading of the-minutes of the last meet- ing by the secretary, Mrs. Laura B. Pow- ers, and reports by J. A. Devoto, repre- senting the committee on permanent or- anization, wherein he gave the reasons gor the organizing of the I ue and the work it expected to accomplish.

Mayor Schmitz stated yesterday that he will direct the Chief of Police to order his men to strictly enforce the ordinance pro- hibiting driving over street crossings at a pace fagter than a walk. Numerous com- laints ‘have been made of the reckless riving of teams, especially from Market street into intersecting streets, and man: serious accidents have been barely avoid- ed. The Mayor, Commissioners Casey and Manson and Chief of Police Wittman went on a tour of inspection yesterday in the business district to ascertain the amount of obstructions on the public streets. A number of storekeepers wers notified to remove their merchandise from the sidwalks.
