iNsoclated Ptvkk Cable to The Evening
Tlmea.
Naples, April 6'.—The eruption of
Mount Ves'uvins is now most violent.
On tin Pompeii side the main stream
of lava has divided into two, one
threatening Ottajano, a commune of
20,200 inhabitants, the other threaten
ing Toredel Greco, with a population
of 30,000.
The danger is serious and calls for
the immediate evacuation of Bosco
trecaz, the nearest village to the cra
ter, which has a population of 9,000
souls.
The streams of lava, which are dif
fusing great heat, are progressing with
considerable rapidity in the direction
of Pompeii. From the new crater,
which is 20 feet in circumference, the
lava has already gone two miles and
a half. Hot mud, ashes and black
sand are also ejected, which, with rain,
produce a so-called caustic rain, which
is most damaging to vegetation. Al
though the showers of cinders here
have diminished, peoples can be seen
holding up uAbrellas as a protection
against the falling ashes.

Moscow, April 6.—The political
prisoners, with whom the local jails

strike" (refusing to partake of food)
to compel the authorities to either
bring them to immediate trial or order
their release. Many of the prisoners
have been three months in jail with
out being confronted with the charges
against them, notwithstanding the fact
that Interior Minister Dnrnovo, in an
official order made public some time
ago,'instructed local officials through

the charges which caused their arrest.

CONCESSIONS BY RAILROADS.
Passengers Carried Free in Ireland—
Batlis for Emittoycp in. Rwsia.
The news that the Belfast & North
ern Counties railway of Ireland has
offered free traveling for ten years to
proprietors or tenants of new houses
along its line between Belfast and
Lough Lame has been widely com
mented upon.
One of the chief grievances of male
travelers has been the invasion by
ladies of smoking compartments. The
writer has noticeil that the Midland
company has recently labeled a num
ber—possibly all—of their smoking
compartments, "Smokers only."
French railway carriages standing
higher from the platform than ours I
do, it has Ions been a source ol' com
plaint on the part of ladies and in
valids that they were most difficult to
enter or descend from. The Paris, 1
Lyons & Maditerannean company is I
remedying this matter by the pro
vision of portable steps for the con
venience of those who are not able
bodied. These steps are a yard in
breadth and covered with thick car
pet. The employes are directed to
place them, at the disposal of anyone
who asks for them.
Another most excellent regulation
which has recently come into force on
French lines and which our own com
panies would do well to copy is to
the effect that any first or second-class
passenger traveling with valuables,
such as specie, important documents,
jewelry, paintings or the like may
have a compartment reserved for him
either by paying the price of a single
ticket or by the payment of a charge
calculated on a weight ten times that
of the package.
Russia is not usually supposed to
be particularly up to date in any re
spect, yet there is one line at least,
the Kursk-Charkov-Sebastopol, which
has shown that its methods are very
far removed' from those of barbarism.
The company has built a traveling
bath for use along the line by all their
employes and their families. The bath
consists of two cars connected with
each other by a covered way. One
contains baths fitted with hot and cold
water the other consists of dressing
rooms. The traveling bath is moved
along from one station to another ac
cording to a regular schedule, and re
mains there for so many hours, during
which time the employes and their
families can use it free of charge.
Certain American railways, espe
cially the South Florida and other
southern lines, carry clergymen in the
dress of their profession free of
charge. This Is a most valuable eon
cession to the clergy, whose parishes
are in some cases as large as an Eng
lish county. The late Episcopal bish
op of south Florida once told the writ
er that his average yearly journeying
by rail within his own diocese was
4,000 to 5.000 miles.—Tit Bits.

Aaaoeiated rrma to Tke Bvealag TImia
Washington, April 0.—As soon as
the routine business was disposed of
by the senate today. Senator retiring
presented his views on the railroad
rate bill. Mr. Elkins announced at the
outset his desire to secure legislation
that would secure to the people
"prompt and adequate remedy for the
evils, injustices, abuses and wrongs of
every kind practiced by the railroads
in any way growing out of their oper
ation," bue he said that while he fa
vors the pending bill he wanted to
make it "better and stronger."
"I stand first for the interests of the
people of my own state," he went on,
"and after that for the interests of all
the people of the United States. I'have
no interest that can affedt my judg
ment or prevent
me
doing
my
duty aa
a senator as I see It" He«declared bin
principal objection to the house bill to
be that it does not go far enough in
remedying the evils and expressed the
opinion that if enacted Into a law
would prove a general disappointment
He said he was in hearty accord with
the president on the subject of rate
regulation. Among the shortcomings
of the bill he enumerated the follow
ing:
The prohibition against railroads
producing, selling or shipping their
own coal and other like articles in
competition with other owners the
.requirement that switches shall be
•'built where needed to accommodate
business the requirement compelling
interstate roads to make connections
with connecting lines and the require
ment for a fair and just distribution of
cars among shippers 'W-^SS

the
consideration, by the anthracite oper

of eastern Pennsylvania to arbitrate
the differences existing between them,
the coal workers will make no move
and will, simply wait until Monday for
the mine owners' reply. The operators
are busily engaged on the miners'
proposition. While they have prac

meet the offer, they will not draw up a
formal answer until the members of
