fluence to have the bill recommitted, as
they thought that it would be better to
have the bill disposed of in this way than
to suffer outright defeat. These gentle?

the opinion of several Senators that the
bill would not pass at this session.

THE ORIGINAL REPORT.
Tho above was the compromise report,
resulting from the strong objection raised
in the Academy to tne following, which
was the closing section of the original re?
port.
"Early Wednesday morning the chair?
man of your committee went to tlie Capi?
tol and was delighted to note that the
sentiment of Tne Senate was greatly in
favor of the Harvey bill .a'ij,; as the
Legislature assembled, he left the Capi?
tol, feeling- confident of tho success of
the 1?11. nut when he returu-d a few
minutes before the time foe the. con?
sideration of the special order, he was
dismayed to find that the sentiment of
the Senate had undergone a change, and
was now against the bill, or rather in
favor of a postponement, which, at that
late day. meant its ultimate defeat. When
several members were asked for an ex?
planation of this change of sentiment,
the chairman of your committee was told
that their change in position was due to
the fact that Drs. Geo. Ben Johnston and
Jno. P. Davidson had requested several
members of tlie Senate to vote for post?
ponement. The. chairman of your com?
mittee with Dr. Edwin Hobson asked Drs.
Johnston and Davidson if this was
true, an?? if they were fighting the Har?
vey bill. They replied that they were?
not fighting the Harvey bill, but that
they thought the Harvey bill was not a
perfect law ?eonseriuently, without coll?
ii year it would be possible to secure a
perfec flaw; consequently, without con?
sulting with their colleagues on your
committee, they inaugurated a campaign
to postpone action, while the other mem?
bers of your committee Avere doing all
in their power to secure immediate con?
sideration of the bill. When these gen?
tlemen were shown the bill as amended,
they agreed th.tt It would be impossible
to secure a more perfect law by delay,
and volunteered to go then, within a
very few minutes of the time set for
consid?ration of the special order, and
say to the five Senators, whose influence
they had sought for postponement, that
they were now in favor of immediate
consideration, but it was tiien ton Into
to ol?anse the sentiment for postpone?
ment which had r*s origin in'.he intlnj?rt?
of those five Senators, and li a very few
minutes, on a. motion to re-c?mmit by
Senator Watkins, of Prince Edward coun?
ty, the bill was sent to the Committee on
General Laws, where it now rests.'
'ibis was signed by the whole commit?
tee, whose names anpoar above, with the
exception of Dr. George Ren Johnston

jection was raised at the time the rep^t

insisting upon the necessity of returning
the money to the Government.
"As you were a member of the com?
mittee of the Senato on the report of
which the action was taken, I take the
liberty of requesting you not only to
give me your opinion, but the opinion
of any other Senators who may feel
free to express themselves on the sub?
ject."
SENATE'S ACTION.
When the facts connected with the large
commission were, made public and criti?
cisms found expression, both on the
floor of the Senate and elsewhere, rela?
tive to certain occurrences at the time of
the passage of the bill, the bishops of
the Methodist Episcopal Church, Scuth,
addressed the presiding officer of the
Senate a letter, which, while affirming
the justness of the claim, insisted that
the churches "could not afford to accept
it as a gratuity or on conditions that
reflect upon its honor, and that if, by
affirmative action it is declared that the
passage ff the bill was due to misleading
statements, proper steps would be taken
fcr the. return of the money to the gov?
ernment.''
This letter was referred by the Senate
to the Committee on Claims, which re?
ported the. following resolution to the
Senate, which was adopted by that body:
"Resolved. That the former report of
the committee, be approved, .and that no
censure, should rest upon the? Methodist
Episcopal Church South for the. mis
statements and concealments of the book
agents in connection with passage of the
bill for the payment Of the claim re?
ferred to in the letter of the bishop, now
uiuler consideration: that injury resulting
therefrom affected only the beneficiaries
of the fund land not the United States,
and the Senato should take no further
action in tho matter."
THE REPLY.
The letter, signed by Senators Clay and
Bacon, and concurred in by seventy
eight other Senators, iti part, is as fol?
lows:
"The simple statement of this history
of the case would seem to leave no room
for question of obligation devolving fur?
ther duty upon the church in connection
therewith.
"The report of the committee and the
resolution of the Senate, in explicit
terms, exonerate the church from ail
blame or ground for criticism, and is a
clear expression of opinion that there is
no obligation on tho part of the churcn.
to repay the money to the Government
or to make, further offer to do so."
STRIKE SITUATION
SLIGHTLY CLOUDED
Neither Side Likely to Have Big
Majority in Convention of
Miners To-Day.
(By Associated Press.)
HAZLETON. PA., May 13.?The situa?
tion regarding tho continuation of the
present total suspension of work in the
anthracite coal fields of Pennsylvania is
a trillo clouded to-night. The apparent
overwhelming sentiment for a strike,
which was in evidence yesterday, is not
quite so prominent now. and predictions
were freely made to-night that whatever
the delegates in the convention here to?
morrow determine upon, the winning side
will hnve only a baro majority.
President Mitchell and his fellow-of?
ficials still maintain their silence. The
indications are. however, that the dele?
gates favoring a strike are in titu ma?
jority and will win their fight in the con?
vention. The upper district, it is known,
is not a unit on the question of a perma?
nent strike, but it is confidently believed
that the pro-strike delegate* in the mid?
dle and lower regions aro numerous
enough to overcome the considerable ai.ti
strike sentiment in the upper region.
The convention will meet at 10 A. M.
to-morr?w, and will conduct its business
behind closed doors. President Mitchell
will bo elected chairman and will make
an address, in which he will give in de?
tail all that has transpired between him?
self and the coal presidents since the
Shamokin convention.
Most of the local unions held meetings
to-day, at which the miners talked over
the situation. The entire region was very
quiet.

The scenes -within the dead city are
strange and grewsome, says the dispatch.
In the section of the city known as the
Mouillege, no sign of fire is visible, but
everything seems to have been rent and
scaled as though by a tornado. The
iron bedsteads in the hospital are twist?
ed, but bear no marks of heat. The
bedclothes and all textiles in the hospital
simply vanished.
About 200 corpses have been found in
the streets of St. Pierre, most of them
lying face downward. Tho central quar?
ter of the town and the fort are buried
several yards under cinders. In the
neighborhood of -the creek, several houses
were f^und Intact, but their inhabitants
were all dead and appeared to have been
killed by lightning. Here tho bodies
were lying, sitting and reclining in curi?
ously life-like attitudes.
All possible sanitary precautions have
been taken at St. Pierre, concludes the
dispatch, but the stench there is awful.

FORT DE FRANCE, ISLAND OF MAR?
TINIQUE, May 13?(Via Paris).?As a
result of the measures taken by the au?
thorities, access to St. Pierre is now
easier. The ruins of the town have ceased
smoking. Two thousand corpses have
been found in a carbonized condition.
It has been learned that the rain of
firo ceased at a distance of 200 yards of
the village of Le Carbet
Talk with survivors of the disaster
confirms previous statements as to the
awful suddenness of tho catastrophe. It
is thought that an enormous quantity of
gas was liberated, producing great at?
mospheric pressure, which overwhelmed
everything before it. The gases absorbed
by the bodies of tho vistims caused them
to burst, and the fire coming afterwards
carbonized them. This was followed hy
a rain of stones, which enveloped the
town, but there was not. as" has been

DECIDE IN MITCHELL'S FAVOR
Council Hold That First Church Erred
in Excluding Him.
John Mitchell, who was excluded from
the First African Baptist Church some
months ago, under circumstances that
attracted widespread attention, will be re?
ceived into the membership of the Fifth
Street Baptist Church nest Monday
night.
This will he dono upon the advice of a
church council, held here yesterday after?
noon to consider the case. There were
about 300 delegates in the council, repre?
senting seventy or more churches in Vir?
ginia, Washington. Baltimore and as far
north as Philadelphia.
Rev. Dr. George W. Lee, of Washing?
ton, presided, and the matter was fi.Ily
discussed. The entire proceedings vero
harmonious. ? committee appointed for
the purpose reported resolution?, which
were adopted, declaring that the First
Church was wrong in excluding Mitchell
under the circumstances, and that ita
action was contrary to all Baptist usages.
It was further recommended that Mitchell
be received into the membership of the
Fifth-Street Church.
The exclusion of Mitchell from tho First
Church grew out of his publication of the
full proceedings of a rather lively church
meeting, in which the matter of calling a
pastor was debated. He asked for a re?
hearing of his case, but this was refused.
He subsequently applied to the Fifth
Street Church for admission, and the
council was requested to pass upon the
regularity of the proceeding.
