LITTLE DOUBT OF THE LAND BILL'S ADOPTION Change in All Parties Over Irish Ques- tion Is Illustrated. LONDON, May 6. — Lord Dudley, lord lieutenant of Ireland, and several Irish peers, listened to a debate on the land bill in the house of commons to day. After speeches by William O'Brien, Nationalist, and Sir Edward Grey, Liberal, welcoming the measure and promising that it would solve the land problem, there was a desultory discussion by less prominent members, which showed, however, the general desire of all parties to see the bill adopted. At midnight the debate was adjourned until Thursday. John Redmond, leader of the Irish party, and Lord Dudley had a long and friendly talk about the bill. This was much commented upon as showing the change which has come >over all par ties in the matter of the Irish question. Montreal Refuses a Carnegie Offer.

HAITI TO BE CONQUERED BY AMERICAN NEGROES Scheme for an Afro-American Repub lic Is Sprung. NEW HAVEN, Conn., May 6.—Wil liam Pickens, the negro who won the junior exhibition prize at Tale, has been asked to become the head of a new Afro-American republic, to be es tablished in Haiti. In his ovation, which won the prize, Pickens discussed Haiti's freedom and declared against it. The scheme is to effect a conquest of Haiti by American negroes and to get a government Utopian in character. The junta of the movement is at Stur gis, Ky., and the correspondent of the society is N. L. Musgrove. He asks that Mr. Pickens act as secretary and board member in this section, and says that the Yale man would eventually be chosen as president of the society. It is also suggested that he take the lecture platform and raise funds for the organization. Mr. Pickens, when seen, said he had the matter under consideration and would seek advice before enlisting his services in the movement. THB ST. PAUL GLOBS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 6, 1903. i - EMPEROR AND KING VISIT MONKS William and Victor Emman ual Explore the Abb ay of Monte Cassino. MONTE CASSINO. Italy, May 5.— Emperor William and King: Victor Emmanuel arrived this morning, ac companied by Crown Prince Frederick William, Prince Eltal. the Duke of Aosta. the Duke of Abruzzi, the Duke of Genoa and the Count of Turin. They were accorded an enthusiastic recep tion. Quaint crowds of peasants, friars and sisters gathered from miles around the village. The reasons for the visit were the part taken by Em peror William in assisting the Bene dictine institutions in Prussia and the promise which he made to visit the celebrated Mother house here. Gorgeous royal equipages, accompa nied by a military escort and the suites of the sovereigns and princes, drove up to the abbey from the sta tion, cheered by the peasants. At the abbey a detachment of troops render ed military honors, and a battery of guns fired a salute. When the abbot, the Rev. Father Boniface Krug, appeared, surrounded by the friars, at the foot of the grand staircase, the contrast in the two groups, the sovereigns and their party and the abbot and the friars, with the background of grim, historic walls, which had resounded on various oc casions with battle cries as well as with prayers, presented a most at tractive spectacle. It was the first time an emperor of Germany had been received at the abbey of Monte Cas sino. The Rev. Father Krup received the emperor and king- Emmanuel In a most cordial manner, and expressed his ap preciation of the honor conferred on the abbey by their visit. Father Krupr had prepared four of the ancient rooms for the accommodation of the quests, and Emperor William went out on the balcony of his room to admire the magnificent scene—the Appenines and the Mediterranean. The emperor descended into the crypt of St. Benedict and watched the men employed on mosaic work. He examined the colors and said such work would give new life to the an cient art. The emperor also referred to the fact that thirty-foru popes were Benedictines, and mentioned Father Krug's last visit to the United States. ROME, May 5. —The two sovereigns and the prince returned to Rome at sunset. They were greatly pleased with their visit to Monte Cassino, es pecially Emperor William, who said with enthusiasm that he felt as though he had lived through several centuries in a few hours. Emperor William's day of.sight-see ing ended with a reception in the Cap itolin museum. The bare walls of the rooms were hidden with ancient tapes tries, and the beauty of the scene drew enthusiastic praise from his majesty. Tea was served in the hall of tapest ries in the china belonging to the Co lonna family. After this the king and the emperor, from a window at the tops of the museum witnessed the illu mination of the fort and the Palatine hill. The pope has sent Chancellor yon Buelow a magnificent case containing, a collection of all the medals struck' during, his pontificate. m GERMAN TESTIMONY ON OUR STEEL TRUST Not Such Simpletons as to Take Ad- vantage of Consumers. BERLIN, May s.—Herr Moeller, the Prussian commerce minister, speaking before the Magdeburg chamber of commerce today, asserted that Germany needs greater concentration as being the only efficient weapon left with which to meet American competition. He added: "The nation that does not follow the tendency of the times toward concen tration of industries will be left behind. We cannot hold our own in the world's markets without specialization and concentration. One of Mr. Morgan's associates said to me some time ago that the distrust which the United States Steel corporation caused was not justified. They were not such sim pletons as to try to take advantage of the consumers, although they were able to do so. Their objects were a di vision of labor territorially, to produce only where production was the cheap est, and to get rid of the middleman. The struggle against the middleman will continue with us, as in the United States." CENSUS OF ELECTRIC ROADS IS OUTLINED Figures on Trackage, Finances, Etc., for Last Fiscal Year. WASHINGTON, D.

To these sev eral persons were clinging, among them being the- ! aged captain, J. S. Tunnel. When he was taken off it was found he suffered severe internal in juries. The Hamilton hung around the scene of the "wreck for more than an hour, but no sign of life could be seen amid the mass of floating freight. Two bodies, one of a man and the other of a woman, both clad only In night dresses, were observed drifting between bales of cotton and eases of goods. The Hamilton arrived at her pier in this city this afternoon. Her bow plates were stove in, and much wrecking still clung to her. All of the damage, however, was above the wa ter line. The survivors of the Saginaw on board the Hamilton had been given clothing by the passengers and sea men of the more fortunate vessel, and a collection was taken up among the passengers to be distributed among them. The Victims. The number of the drowned is not yet known. According to the Clyde line officials, the names of only eighteen passengers ar« known, and it is admitted by Sec ond Officer Morris that fifteen colored women, all of whom are now dead, were swamped in the life boat. The crew of the Saginaw numbered twelve. Those knows to be lost are: Passengers— A. "GILMORE, P. PENDLETON, FLORENCE NEWBY, EDNA WARD, M. E. JONES, MARY ROBERTSON, all colored Crew — Edward Gosle, first mate; William Bates, first assistant engineer; Mary Anderson', stewardess; , cook; Morris, steward; unknown colored waiter; Peter Swanson, a lame members of the crew, is among the missing. Just how many of the eighteen pas sengers of the Saginaw were lost in the swamped boat cannot be determined as yet. Among the; known saved from the Saginaw are nine pass<*igf-s, Capt. Tunnell, Chief Engineer Beelser, Sec ond Assistant Engineer Murray, Sec ond Mate W. T. Morris, several colored deck hands, firemen and coal passers* The Saginaw was in charge of First Officer Gosle when the collision oc curred, and the first officer of the Old Dominion ship was also at the wheel of his vessel. The density of the fog made . high speed perilous and both ships Vere going at reduced rates. Their fog whistles were kept blowing regularly. Most Horrible Awakening. The passengers and most of the crew of both ships were" asleep below when the disaster happened and when the terrible shock and grinding noise awakened them a panic-stricken rush for safety took place. The discipline of the crew was admirable. "Women first," was the initial command of Cant. Tunnel after the life boats had been prepared for lowering. The frightened colored women piled into the first boat from the Saghiaw and lost their lives. The following statement was made by Capt. Boaz, of the Hamilton: "It was clear when we left New York yesterday afternoon, but we ran into a fog four miles north of Egg Harbor, which lasted until we reached Cape Charles this morning. It was about 4:40 this afternoon and we were pro ceeding at about nine knots an hour. We had been under reduced speed since encountering the fog. We could not see a ship's length ahead when we heard a whistle on the starboard bow two points ahead. We stopped the Hamilton and then I heard another whistle.., Suddenly the Saginaw loomed up three points on our bow and the Saginaw attempted to run aaposs the Hamilton's bow. We backed at full speed, but struck the Saginaw on the port quarter. In a very short time she went down. When the Hamilton back-' ed off she was sinking. We lowered two boats, but meanwhile the Saginaw had lowered her boats and a raft. I picked up two of these boats and a raft. The third was probably sunk." Purser McCormick, of the Hamilton, estimates that the Saginaw sank ten minutes after the collision, though there are others who say the time was probably longer. Capt. Tunnel, of the Saginaw, did not leave his vessel until the last min ute. He finally; was taken from the rigging of the sinking ship, and when brought aboartf the Hamilton he was found to be seriously but not fatally injured. Engineer Selzer, of the Saginaw, re ported to the Clyde officials here this afternoon that the Saginaw lies in fifteen fathoms of water. First Mate Gosle. of the Saginaw, is among the missing. The Clyde officials' estimate of the lost is six of the crew and nine "pas sengers. The Hamilton was in com mand of Capt." R. B. Boaz. Related by a Passenger. C. K. Berwin, of New York, was one of the passengErs on the steamer Ham ilton. He said: "Fog settled/ down like a pall on the ocean about 7 o'clock this morning. Suddenly, this morning, when we were going slow, six bells rang, and I knew there was something wrong. Then the crash came, and I felt the shop shiver. Nothing had happened to our ship be low. Then came the awful sight. As I stood there gazing out to sea, the Saginaw appeared with twenty feet of her stern carried completely away. So completely was this carried off that I could look completely into the steamer. At that time she was afloat, but she quickly disappeared in the dense fog and sank just fifteen minutes after the crash. The first thought was for our own safety and our own boats were lowered and the hull examined. When it was found she was not damaged, the captain and crew turned toward the other boat, hoping to save some human lives. When the Hamilton came near we saw the Saginaw through the mist. Two masts were showing, as if she had scuttled and was resting on the very bottom. Our boats brought off'sixteen persons, of whoiri five were white. So great was the confusion that one man put life preservers on his feet, and when seen later was drowned, float- Ing feet upward."

LONDON CAN'T DRI^E OUT AMERICAN FLOUR Big Millers Will Not Attempt to Form a Combination. LONDON, May s.—An investigation of the report that negotiations are on foot here for a combination of the London flour mills, with a capital of £12,500,000, with the object of driving American flour out of the market, shows the corn exchange does not look upon it seriously and believes the com bination is impossible of accomplish ment. The negotiations are being en gineered by small millers and it is said that the big millers will not entertain the proposal to form a combination. A corn broker said today: : "Even if the combine Is effected if could not drive out the Americans, who have much greater milling capaci ties than the British millers and who have a large surplus, which they could afford to ship here at any price they could get." POSTAL INVESTIGATION HAS LONG BEEN BREWING ' Mr. Payne Said It Was Agreed Upon Early Last Winter. WASHINGTON, D. ~C. May 5.— There were two moves in the postoffice investigation today. First a letter call- Ing for the evidence in the possession of Mr. T-ulloch, former cashier, of the Washington city postofflce, to substan tiate his charges against the adminis tration of the department several years ago, and second, the announcement • that the present investigation was agreed on early last winter. Mr. Payne today said it was pro posed to see if any "crookedness" ex isted in the department. It was a big undertaking, he said, to go over the country and take up the investigation and the method pursued was adopted as most likely to serve the interests of the people. He said at the time the in vestigation started it was not believed there was any dishonesty. Philanthropic Pawnshops. NEW YORK, May s.—Thomas M. Muley, president of the St. Vincent de Palu society, and others are backing a philanthropic pawnbroking enter prise, in which they hope to embark soon after a bill incorporating the per sonal property loan company shall be signed, with a capital of 510,000.
