At a. time when consumptive de

Prices of commodities on May 1 rose

Procrastinating consumers who
predicted a collapse in the iron and

greatly augumented the pressure by
tardily attempting to supply their

Omaha, May 10. The lowa state
school for Hie deaf, located three
miles east of Council llluffs. was de
stroyed by fire late Friday afternoon.
N'o one was injured, so far as known.
The loss will reach $400,000. The
buildings are located outside the city
limits and the only lire protection is
an independent plant. When the lire
department reached the institution
the chapel had been destroyed and an
effort was made to save the main
building. The water pressure, how
ever, was so low that little could be
done. The entire structure and its
contents are a total loss.
CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, M/.v 7 15, i 9 c2.
The state department has been re
ceiving dispatches from commercial
houses in New York asking that a
warship be sent at once to Martinique
to afford relief. The matter is under
consideration.
London. May 10.—A dispatch to the
licutcr Telegram Co., from Kingston,
Jamaica, after giving the details of
the Martinique disaster already
known, says: "Thousands were killed
at St. Pierre, where a terrible panic
prevailed. The eruption began Sat
urday. May 3, when St. Pierre was
covered with ashes and appeared to
be enveloped in fog. The flow of lava
continued until Wednesday, May 7."
The message adds: "In the island
of St. Vincent, the Soufricre (vol
cano) is active and earthquakes are
frequent. But, so far, no damage has
been done."
A dispatch to the Daily Mail from
Pointc-a-Pitrc, island of Guadeloupe,
dated Friday, says:
"The Montpelee crater ejected, yes
terday morning, molten rocks and
ashes during three minutes and com
pletely destroyed St. l'ierre and the
districts within a four-mile radius.
All the inhabitants were burned.
Eight passengers from the Koraima,
of the Quebec Steamship line, were
saved by the French cruiser Suchet.
The inhabitants of the southern dis
tricts of the island, who were depend
ent on St« Pi. •rre for provisions, are
menaced by famine."
Another dispatch says:"The first
intimation of a disaster was the
breaking of the cables on Tuesday.
The French cable to Martinique, from
Puerto Plata, was broken Wednes

the northern islands is stopped.

beggaring-descript ion. The Roddam's
men were killed chiefly by molten
lava.
"The Roraima was wrecked in a
terrific upheaval of land and sea. The
whole crew perished. Two ships were
lost with all on board in an attempt
to approach Martinique."
All the newspapers here express the
utmost horror of the catastrophe,
which, they say, for its suddenness
and magnitude, is only comparable
with that of Pompeii, and they ex
tend deep sympathy to the French
nation.
Owing to the cable breakdown in
the West Indies no details of the dis
aster at Martinique have yet been re
ceived here. The available dispatches
from the West Indies represent the
inhabitants of the other islands as
being in deadly fear.
Paris, May 10.— Although the de
struction of St. Pierre, Martinique,
was known here early yesterday, tho
Parisians <to not yet seem to realize
the awfulness of the catastrophe,
which, apparently, hardly caused
more than a ripple of excitement on
the boulevards.
Bridgetown, B. W. 1., May 10. —Vol-
canic dust, from the eruption in the
island of St. Vincent, is still falling
here. The roads and houses are c >v

AT REST.
■Ceniaiiiv of Hear Ailitiiral Sampnuii
llui-ie<l in Arlington Cemetery.
Washington, May 10. —With a pomp
and circumstance exceeding that of
any naval funeral in this country, in
recent years, at least, the remains
of the late William Thomas Samp
son. rear admiral in the United
States navy, and commander-in-chief
of the United States naval forces on
the. North Atlantic station during
the war with Spain, were laid at rest
yesterday. Every department of the
national government was represent
ed.
The military and naval features of
the ceremonies were brilliant and im
pressive. They were conducted un
der direction of Rear Admiral Terry,
uindant of the Washington navy
yard, assisted by Lieut. Ilenry
George, the adjutant general. The
funeral escort gathered early. It
was composed of the light battery
of United States artillery, the naval
cadets from \nnapolis, :.'I7 strong,
and a battalion of bluejackets from
the North Atlantic squadron.
The burial ceremonies at Arling
ton cemetery were simple, being con
fined to it prayer for the dead, the
reading of a Psalm and music. As
the remains were lowered into the
grave the marine band played the
beautiful hymn, "Safe in the Arms
of Jesus," and then followed the
sounding of "taps" by a bugler sta
tioned at the head of the open grave,
markin'g the last earthly ceremony
over the dead officer. The president
and his cabinet did not goto Arling
ton.
Washington, May 7.—Rear Admiral
William T. Sampson, retired, died at
his home in this city at 5 o'clock yes
terday afternoon. The immediate
cause of death was a severe cerebral
hemorrhage. He had been in a semi
conscious state for several days.
Overshot (lie .Hark.
Princeton, N. ,7., May 10.—Former
President (irover Cleveland was asked
Friday for his opinion of the effect
upon the country of the recent ac
tion of the dressed beef combine.
"It looks," said Mr. Cleveland, "as
though the packers had overshot the
mark. I see by the newspapers that
the markets are full, and that the
trust's product is not being used so
extensively as it was, and that the
stock raisers are content to sell their
cattle at reasonable prices. I judge
the situation is beginning to assume
normal conditions."

A VICTORY.

Salvador lo American ConrekNlon
arlen.
Washington,< May 9.—The United
States has won a sweeping victory in
the matter of the arbitration of the
dispute with the republic of Salvador
over the claim of the Salvador Com
mercial Co. and other citizens of the
United States, stockholders in the
corporation El Triumfo Co.. limited,
created under the laws of Salvador,
.sir Ilenry Strong and Don M. Dick
inson, a majority of the arbitration
committee, have rendered an opinion
against Salvador for $.>7.1,178.
The Salvador Commercial Co. was
incorporated in Salvador, but the
majority of the stockholders were
citizens of the United States. It had
concessions authorizing it to con
struct and equip a port and conduct
an importing and exporting business
there. The concessions were signed
by the president, and approved by the
iSalvadorian congress. Afterwards,
by sheer decrees, the president an
nulled these concessions and be
stowed them upon third parties and
Salvadorians. The opinion sets forth
the indefensible character of arbi
trary decrees and was framed on the
lines of the original report on the
case prepared by Solicitor Penfield,
of the department of state.
A STRIKE IS ORDERED.
Oprratorn In tlic Anthracite ICCKIOU
ICeliike to Arbitrate IHll'erenccN.
Seranton, Pa., May 10. —A general
strike of the miners of the anthracite
region has been ordered for Monday
next, but the order has a reserve
qualification attached. The question
as to whether the strike is to be
made permanent is left to the deci
sion of a convention of delegates of
all tin' local organizations of the mine
workers to be held at Hazleton next
Wednesday. This was decided yester
day.
There is not a particle of question
but that the miners will religiously
obey the order and that on Monday
next not so much as a shovel full of
coal will be mined in the Lackawanna
valley.
£200,000 Fire Lout,
Bloomington, 111., May 9. —The
northeast cell block of the state re
formatory at Pontine, was destroyed
by fire last night, entailing a loss of
$200,000. The progress of the flames
through the supposedly fire proof
structure was so rapid that the city
and reformatory departments were
unable to control the flames. Three
hundred inmates were locked in the
cell block, but were quickly trans
ferred to the south cell block and no
lives were lost. The origin of the
tire is charged to inmates of the re
formatory.

Lydia Em Pinkham's Vegeiahßo Compound.
It will entirely cure the worst forms of Female Complaints, all Ova
rian troubles, Inflammation and Ulceration, Falling and Displacement
of the Womb, and consequent Spinal Weakness, and is peculiarly
adapted to the Change of Life.
It has cured more cases of Backache and Leucorrhoea than any
other remedy the world has ever known. It is almost infallible in such
cases. It dissolves and expels tumors from the Uterus in an early stage
of development, and checks any tendency to cancerous humors.
Irregular, Suppressed or Painful Menstruation, Weakness of the
Stomach, Indigestion, Bloating, Flooding, Nervous Prostration, Head
ache, General Debility quickly yields to it.
Womb troubles, causing pain, weight, and backache, instantly re
lieved and permanently cured by its use. Under all circumstances it
acts in harmony with the laws that govern the female system, and is as
harmless as water.
It quickly removes that Bearing-down Feeling, extreme lassi
tude, "don't care" and "want-to-be-left-alone" feeling, excitability,
irritability, nervousness, Dizziness, Faintness, sleeplessness, flatulency,
melancholy or the " blues," and backache. These are sure indications
of Female Weakness, or some derangement of the Uterus, which this
medicine always cures.
Kidney Complaints and Backache of either sex the Vegetable
Compound always cures.
No other female medicine in the world has received such
widespread and unqualified endorsement. No other medicine
has such a record of cures of female troubles.
Those women who refuse to accept anything else are re
warded a hundred thousand times, for they get what they want
—a cure. Sold by Druggists everywhere. Refuse all substitutes.
