They declare themselves | Prince Frederick Has Petitioned the OPENING WEEK WILL BE DULL Senate \\fll Convene With Little Business to Occupy Its| Attention for Several l)n)‘si e ! FIRST | | Committee Reports to Be Re-| e ceived and Vote on Panama | Treaty Will Be Rushed panadots WASHINGTON, Jan. 3.—After a re cess of more than two weeks the Senate ! will resume business to-morrow with- | out any definite programme. Indeed, it may be stated the Senate has no pro-: gramme for the entire session beyond the passage of the appropriation bill, the consideration of the Panama canal | treaty, the determination of Senator | Smoot’s case and the disposition of some other comparatively unimportant | matters. One of the appropriations, namely, the pension bill, has reached the Sen- ate, and that has not yet been consid- ered in committee. It is probable, how- | ever, that it wiil be reported at an early | date. The Panama canal treaty also is ! in committee, and it also probably will be reported to the Senate during the | present week. The Smoot case will be procepded with by the Committee on Privileges, but the indications are that some weeks will elapse before the ques- tion can be brought before the Senate in regular order. Notwithstanding the fact that the canal treaty is not at present in the Senate, there is little doubt that the canal question will form the leading topic for discussion during the week. Senator Lodge will speak on this subject on Tuesday, and it is quite certain he will be followed by other Senators, especially by some who an- tagonize the attitude of the administra- ticn LODGE WILL SPEAK. Senator Lodge will uphold in an elab- orate ech the right of the President to recognize independence of Pan- ama at the time and in the manner in which President Roosevelt gave them ognition 1so has intimated his intention to discuss this subject. The committee is expected to report the canal treaty by the middle of the week, and it is the intention of the of the administration to press deration as rapidly as p ible, with the idea of getting the speeches out of the way and having the treaty disposed of as early as possible. With the treaty once reported they will make an effort to confine the discussion to the executive sessions in the hope that by =0 doing they will shorten the consider- ation of the question. The Committee on Military Affairs probably will report the nominetion of General Leonard Wood at the first ex-' ecutive session. A meeting of the com- ittee has been called for to-morrow, with the understanding that a vote on the nomination shail be taken. There will be an effort to secure cbnsideration of the nomination as soon as possible. The nomination probably wiil lead to much debate. LIGHT WORK FOR HOUSE. When the House reassembles to-mor- row it will be confronted by almost bare calendars. Only a few items of legislation have been reported by com- mittees, and all these are of compara- insignificance. It therefore will be recessary for the House to wait for a few days upon its committees before beginning the transaction of complete business. The disposition is to take up no matters of general interest outside of appropriation bills, and thefe is no appropriation measure in shape to be reported from committee. The legisla- executive and judicial bill will be the first to receive attention, but there is no expectation that it will be report- ed from the Appropriation Committee before Friday or Saturday. In the meantime the House will consider pri- vate pension bills and other questions of not much importance unless some matter should be taken up for general discussion. The week, however, will be one of great activity in the committee rooms. GIL AN ENEMY OF MORALES Deposed l'l'(-smont of Santo Domingo Will Soon Join Forces of General Jiminez Pt s SAN JUAN, P. R, Jan. 3.—Thirty of | the followers of General Wos y Gil from | Santo Domingo, including all the Do- | minican revolutionary generals now here, will sail to-morrow on the French steamer St. Simon, going direct to| Puerto Plata. From there they will hasten to join General Jiminez before | confident they will be able to over- throw the government of President| Morales. | The St. 8imon will carry a good sup- ply of ammunition and stores, as well as a number of horses, secured in Porto Rico. Other Porto Ricans recruited by the revolutionists will sail Tuesday on the schooner Mayaguez. General Wos y Gil says he will re-| main in San Juan three weeks more on the advice of his friends, who fear he will be assassinated should he return to Santo Domingo now. A cablegram was received yesterday from revolutionary sources at Puerto Plata that General Caceres, the provi- sional Vice President, has been killed. ————— WANTS MARRIAGE OF PRINCESS ANNULLED Pope and Charges Infidelity of Don Carlos’ Daughter. ROME, Jan. 3.—Prince Frederick of Echoenburg-Waldenburg has sent a lawyer to the Vatican to present a peti- tion to the Pope asking for the annul- ment of the marriage of the Prince with the Princess Alice, daughter of Don Carlos, pretender to the Spanish throne. The Prince’s petition will say that the infidelity of the Princess has been proved. RESO URCES OF CHICAGO UNDERTAKERS "TAXED TO BURY STRICKEN CITY’S DEAD | Tolling of Funeral Knells 'Is Continuous Throughout the First Sabbath of the New Year and Yet Many Mourning Relatives Are Forced to Postpone Temporarily’ the Interment of Loved Ones CHICAGO, Jan. 3.—To-day was a day of funerals in Chicago, and yet many were unable to bury their dead. Tte unprecedented demand for hearses | and carriages would have been enough in itself to tax to the utmost the re- sources of the undertakers, but the | heavy snow that has fallen duging the last two days has increased their dif- ficulties enormously. All of the ceme- teries in Chicago are miles from the business center and resident districts, and with good weather and the streets in passable condition it requires several hours to reach any of them. To-day, when every hearse was in demand, it required about twice as long to reach a cemetery as ynder mormal conditions. Arrangements were made by the un- dertakers to have as many funerals as possible held in the early part of the day, in order to allow, if possible, the use of each hearse for a second funeral in the afternoon. In many instances families who waited for the return of a hearse were disappointed and were compelled to defer the burial of their loved ones. It is expected that by to- morrow the streets will be in such a condition as to permit the passage of funerals in almost the ordinary time. GRAVE-DIGGERS KEPT BUSY. The cemeteries compelled were to keep men at work all through the n|ghl‘ digging graves, and, in some of the large cemeteries, they barely managed | to make them with sufficient speed. At one time to-day fourteen buriald were in progress in Rose Hill Cemetery. In the rooms of one undertaker a fra- | ternal organization held services over | | five members of its order at the same time. The funeral services over Ella and| Edith Freckelton, sisters, was held in Boulevard hall. Fully 2000 persons were in attendance, and fully 500 more stood outside, in the biting wind, until the funeral had departed for the cemetery. In the home of the millionaire manu- facturer, Ludwig Wolff, was held the| quadruple funeral of his daughter, Mrs. William G. Garn and her three chil-| dren. A crowd of more than 1000 per- sons surrounded the house, and the po- lice were compelled open a passage- way for the pallbeafers. The funeral was one of the largest ever held on the West Side of the city. LAST RITES OVER FOUR. A funeral conducted in a manner was held a few squares from the Wolff residence at the same time. 1t was that of Mrs. Mary H. Holst and her three children, all of whom died in the ill-fated second . balcony. Holst was a sister of ex-Chief of Po- ilce Badenoch and it was he who identi- fied the bodies of the mother and her three children. Fully as many persons were aroind the small frame church in | which this funeral gathered as outside the pretentious Wolff mansion, and here, too, the police were compelled to open a passageway for the caskets as they were borne to the hearses. These arc but instances of what oc- curred throughout the length and| breadth of Chicago to-day. Multiply | by twenty the funerals mentioned and a better idea can be had of this first Sabbath day in the new year. The list of dead was increased to 588 to-day by the death of Le Roy Rain- bolt, a boy of 4 years, who had been severely burned. Of the ten bodies at the morgue four were identified to-day. They were Mrs. Mary A. Fair, Sadie Ludwig, Dorothy Lemager, 13 years old, and Emma Reynolds, 7 years cld. The injured, of whom therz is a rec- ord now number 103, although the number of those who were nurt slight- ly would swell this number greatly. Numbers of persons went to their homes after the fire without reporting themselves to the police as Injured. POLICE SEEKING SCHMIDT. county Outside of the numerous funerals that were held to-day it was the first day of rest the city has known since last Wednesday afternocn. Less than tweaty persons called at the of- fice of the Chief of Police for permits to visit morgues and few were at the | hospitals. John Schmidt, the stage emnioye who is said to have left open the reflector that prevented the asbestos curtain de- scending, still sought by the police. He is believed to be in hiding in the city, but the Chief of Police received an intimation from his friends that Schmidt will ‘be ready when he |is wanted as a wifness at the Coroner’s inquest next Thursday. There were no more arrests of mem- bers of the “Mr. Bluebeard” company to-day, and none are expected unless there be unlooked-for developments. Assistant Chief of Police Schuettler de- clared that no further obstacle would be placed in the way of members of the | company who desired to leave the city. “I have been assured by Kiaw & Er- langer,” he said to-day, “that any member of the company who is wanted | as a witness will be returned from New York, and with that understanding T have ordered that there be no further inler!ercnce with the departure of the company.” INQUIRY “'1LL BE THOROUGH. To-morrow morning Coroner Treager and the jury empaneled to sit at the inquest will resume its task of collect- ing evidence. An exhaustive examina- tion of the building will be made, and particular attention will be paid to any violation of the building ordinances that may be found. In accordance with the request of the members of the jury. all sightseers and even watchmen will be excluded from the building while the examination is in progress. The jurors have said to the Coroner they did not wish any person to hear the questions that may be asked, as they fear pub- licity will interfere with the thorough- ness of the inquiry. Because of the unlimited scope that the Coroner intends to give to the in- vestigatéon, it is expected the work of taking testimony will consume several wecks. Contractors and all others who can give expert testimony wiil be sum- moned, and the Coroner to-day issued a notice to all survivofs of the theater humbler | Mrs. | i | | | | that. horror that he ‘would be glad to have them appear and give their evidence. MANY NEW LAWS PLANNED. From all indications the meeting of the City Council to-morrow night will be taken up entirely by the introduction of resolutions relating to the fire. Ordi- nances will be presenied covering every imaginable detail of the management and equipment of a theater. Alderman Dunn will introduce an order forbid- ding members of the City Council ac- cepting passes, either from raliroads or places of amusement. Mayor Harrison sald to-night: “I Intend to hold a meeting of all the Aldermen, and, if possible, of all the- atrical managers also. I want to talk over with them what is best to be done. So far I have acted upon my own re- sponsibility, without consulting anyone, There are one or two theaters that could oven to-morrow by placing fire- men upon the stage, but they must do As far as I am personally con- cerned, not one theater shall open its doors in this city until it shall have complied with the last letter of the or- dinances.” The Mayor said he had heard nothing of a rumor that a warrant was to be taken out for his arrest. “One.cannot tell,” he said, “what a man who has lost all of his family in a fire like that of Wednesday will do. He could hardly be held responsible for his actions.” 3 2 “FIRE!” CRY STARTS PANIC. A serious panic occurred this after- noon at the funeral of Miss Mary Car- ries, one of the victims of the fire. The services were in progress in the South | Chicago, Congregational Church, in the suburb of South Chicago, and the building was filled. Fire broke out | three doors from the church and the | first intimationof its was conveyed to those in the church by a cry of “fire” in the street. Many rushed for the doors. Two po- licemen stationed in the church called out to the people that there was no danger and urged them to resume their seats. Their advice was not heeded, | however; the pall-bearers went to the side of the casket and stood in readi- nese to remove it, and the family of the dead girl prepared to leave. Suddenly a cloud of smoke came jn through the open door and the sight and #nell mad- dencd the gathering. The two officers had barely time to swing the dcors open when the rush came. This was all that prevented a severe crush and probable loss of life. When the street was reached and it was seen that there was no cause for alarm the greater part of the mourners returned to the church and the ser- vices were finished. Nobody was in- jured. — el NATIONS ARE SYMPATHETIC. Foreign Governments Offer Condo- lences Concerning Chicago Fire. ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 3.—For- eign Minister Lamsdorff, Minister of Interior Plehve, M. Saengere and nu- merous representatives of high society have called on United States Embas- sador McCormick to express condo- lence on the Chicago theater fire. The Russian commission appointed some time ago to investigate the pro- tection of theaters against flle has de- | cided to undertake a series of expen- sive experiments. They will build a miniature theater in which small ani- mals will be placed, to determine the extent of death due to fire and to as- phyxiation. ROME, Jan. 3.—United States Em- bassador Meyer to-day went to the Foreign Office and communicated -to Foreign Minister Tottini the high ap- preciation of the United States Gov- ernment for the message of condo- lence of the Italian Government on the recent disaster at the Iroquois Theater, Chicago, which was conveyed through the Italian Charge d’Affaires at Washington to the State Depart- ment there. WASHINGTOX of his Government and people Austro-Hungarian Embassador, Hengemuller, has expressed to Government profound sympathy the sufferers in the Chicago fire. LONDON, Jan. 3.—John Redmond has sent a cablegram to Mayor Harri- son expressing the sympathy of the Irish people with the sufferers from the Chicago fire. MR C VR B “HARRY JUDSON'S" Jan. 3.—On behalf the Mr. this for FUNERAL. Immense Crowd Attends Obsequles of Chicago Fire Victim. BINGHAMTON, N. Y., Jan. 3.—One of the most largely attended funerals ever held heré was that of Clarence Burr Scott, “Harry Judson,” of the <Billionaire” company, who was burned to death in the Iroquois The- ater fire in Chicago. Rev. Dr. A. W. Hammis, drawing a lesson from the sham protection of the theaters, said: “God gives a protection to those who trust in Him that drops down in time of temptation and is made of as- bestos and not of burlap.” S COULD NOT BUY SEATS. Two Eyewitnesses Tell of Their Expe- rlences at Iroquois Theater. ‘With their thoughts still dwelling on the horrifying scenes attending the ter- rible fire in Chicago last Wednesday, Frank Jermyn and L. C. Smith arrived from the East on the overland train last evening and registered at the Pal- ace Hotel. Jermyn is a coal magnate of Scranton. and his companion the head of the typewriter manufacturing firm which bears his name. The gentlemen are en route to the Orient, and on their way to San Francisco they were com- pelled to stop over in Chicago on the day of the frightful disaster. Having nothing to do they decided to attend the,. matinee at the Yroquois Theater. Arriving at the box office they found a large crowd clamoring for tickets, and the best they could obtain in the way of seats were twoin row R, on the right of the theater. On reaching the interior they called an usher and offered him a dollar to get them two seats nearer the footlights. The boy returned a few minutes later and informed Jermyn and Smith that he was unable to accom- V- modate them, and being dissatisfied with the seats in the rear of the house théy concluded to leave. They were about to leave their seats when the cry of fire was heard and a second later the fateful nandemomum bhad devel- oped. Hardly ten secnnds had elapsed be- fore the front entrance to the theater was choked with frightened people en- deavoring to make their escape. Jer- myn and Smith were among the more fortunate. After a hard struggle they managed to reach the sidewalk just in time to become unwilling witnesses to a revolting spectacle. As they stepped out on the sidewalk a woman, who had plunged from a window above them, was dashed to death on the hard pave- ment before them. In describing the affair last night Jermyn said that the sight of the badly mangled form of the unfortunate woman so shocked him that he closed his eyes and rushed madly into the street, along which, with Smith, he was rapidly hustled to a place of safety. Of the scenes that en- sued the gentleman stated that he could add nothing to the telegraphic descrip- tions sent out by the Associated Press and special correspondents, except that words could not fully portray the mis- ery that was suffered by victims of the awful affair and the heartrending scenes that followed later in the day when relatives began searching for their missing loved ones. On the same afternoon Jermyn and Smith gladly re- sumed their journey toward the West. ——————— WRECKED ROAMER'S PASSENGERS ARRIVE All Are Well Except Colonel Camp- bell, Who May Be In Dying Condition. NEW YORK, Jan. 3.—The Ward Line steamship Orizaba, which arrived to- day from South Sea Island ports, via Nassau, brought as passengers Captain George B. Campbell, master and owner; and the crew of seven men of the auxil- iary yacht Roamer, which was wrecked at Rum Cay, Bahamas, on December 10. Colonel T. bell's father, who was on bcard the Roamer when she was wrecked, was also a passenger on the Orizaba, and is in a critical condition, suffaring from exposure and shock. Coionel Campbell is one of the best known criminal law- yers in the country, being chief pros- ecuting counsel in the trial cf the as- sassins of Governor Goebel of Ken- tucky. He was taken to a hospital, sald to be in a dying condition. IS FASTEST OF BATTLESHIPS. Vessel Japan Purchased From Chile Malkes Astonishing Speed. In her recent trial the battleship La Libertad, purchased last month from Chile, ostensibly for the British navy, but which, according to the expressed belief of the Japanese admiral, Matsa, was really bought for the Mikado's navy, developed a speed of 17% knots during twenty-seven consecutive hours, with a consumption of 1.7 pounds of coal per unit of horsepower. During the six hours’ full speed trial six runs made over the measured mile course gave an average speed of 20.2 knots, which exceeds the speed of any battleship yet built by nearly one knot.

There were about 500 people in the hall and one of the two exits was closed by the wreckage. The people became panic stricken and fought to get out, many being trampled on and seriously injured. Galalda was burned about the head and face. His wife was thrown against the ceiling and fell unconscious to the floor.

SACRAMENTO, , Jan. There wasa remarkable scene at the Sixrh Street Methodist Church to-night whken the pastor, the Rev. W. W. Case, delivered & sermon elaborating the twenty-five reasons why the Tuesday Literary Club should not give the society dance pro- posed for next Thursday night. Long before the lights of the church were turned on the sidewalk was crowded with men and women anxious to gain admission. ‘When the pastor ascended the pulpit the large auditorium was packed to the point of discomfort and ushers were at the doors sending hundreds away. The Rev. Mr. Case began with vigor and attacked the dance on moral and ethical grounds as he had explained in advance in The Call. He said that since the publication of his views on the subject he had been called vpon by scores of men and women who congrat- ulated him upon his stand. He added that he had nothing to detract and proceeded to denounce dancing in un- measured terms, charging it with much of the immorality of the present day. “I know,” exclaimed the pastor, “that my name is being cursed in the dance halls and dives of San Francisco to- night, as it is in the palaces of sin in Sacramento. But I am here to speak the truth concerning this modern evil.” At the conclusion of his sermon the Rev. Mr. Case was besieged by mem- bers of his congregation, both men and women, who, amid handshakes, ex- pressed their approval of his words. The unusual spectacle was presented of fashoinably dressed young women and young men going forward and pledging the pastor their word that they would hereafter refrain from dancing. ‘While the Rev. Mr. Case has stirred the religious sentiment of a portion of the population by his attack upon the “Tuesday Club’s full dress val therz is no abatement in the preparations for the event, and the society women who have it in charge declare that for every reason the Rev. Mr. Case can offer why the dance should not be held they can supply 100 Why it should and will be held. ——————————— SKELETON IS FOUND NEAR LIME POINT BEACH Hunters Discover Bones of a Person Whose Burial Took Place Many Years Ago.
