Bnrkc-MoCanii Co., Tonight, Madrid, April 10. - It appears thnt underneath the foundations of the reservoir whioh gave'way with such disastrous results on Saturday, causing the death of nearly workmen, were water pipes used to supply the palace and old Madrid. It is asserted that this was the cause of the subsidence and not the surfitee of the ground, which, when tests were made, sank only eleven millimeters. The vault was built of cement, with iron girders, as were also the supporting columns. The first fall caused all the pilrt-s to .bend and lire end of the ironwork to stretch, resulting in a general and uniform collapse. These explanations, however, cannot be considered final. Since the days of Dion Beausisault, who first introduced the refined, whole-souled singing Irish character 011 the American stage, up to the present time there has always been a demand for the Hibernian comedy drama. Many singers have earned tame and fortune in this style of entertainment among whom the most loved and famous was William J. .ScanIon, whose songs have been whistled and sung in almost every American home. The youngest exponent of this elevated type of Irish character is Wm. Francis Burke, whose work resembles that of the lamented Scan- Ion.

British Borneo, April 10.— The British ship Knight Templar, in yesterday from' Saigon, in French Indochina, brings startling news of the Russian fleet. It would seem from the authentic story of Captain \\ illiams, confirmed by several of the ship's officers, that the Russian warships which passed through the strait of Malacca on Saturday were not in command of Admiral Rojestvensky and that, as a matter of fact, his four great battleships and several of his cruisers were not in the squadron. Frederick, Okla., April 10— Deep in the wilds of the Indian reservation President Roosevelt has turned his face from civilization for live days, lie is now enjoying the pleasures of the chase far to the east of this city.

Mr. Loeb will be in touch with the executive by wireless telegraphy, dispatching and receiving plants having been installed at convenient points by army engineers. Many heartrending incidents and painful scenes are reported. Ten of those who were rescued alive have gone mad. A huge crowd stood around the scene throughout the night, watching the attempts at rescue in the light of huge -electric lamps. Crowds of workmen and women carrying black flags forced all the theaters to close on Saturday night. New York, April 10.—Because of the extradition proceedings in Ohio which seek to bring to this city J. Morgan Smith and his wife, the orother-ln-law and sister of Nan Patterson, the actress charged with slaving hci lover, Caesar Young, the trial of the "Floradora" girl was postponed for a week. Counsel for the defense made strong objection to the postponement, but Recorder Goff granted the motion of the district attorne, stating that a week's dela would work no hardship to the woman. "Way Down East," Tomorrow "Way Down East" will be the attraction at the Broad tomorrow evening. It is a play with a story which touches the heart, but which is told in a charming manner. Brielly the tale may be sketcl%rtl. A girl who h*s been deceived by the villain through a mock marriage, goes to a New England village to begin life anew, that had been all but shattered. She becomes a sort of companion and assistant in the household of a farmer whose son is engaged to a cousin. The young man falls in love with the new comer, he and his betrothed never ever caring much for each oth- This settlement is the remote mountain home of the Calcutta tea merchant)1 and missionaries and was one of the loveliest districts of India. The houses of the better class of natives and Europeans are all built of stone, and when the earthquake shocks came all were overthrown in a moment upon the, inmates. The reed houses of the poorer people swayed to the quivering of the earth, but the solid residences collapsed instantly without (living the occupants a moment's chance to escape.The appearance of these ships outside the roadstead of Vladivostok would constitute a potential threat against Admiral Togo's rear, which will compel the retention in or dispatch of n number of heavy fighting ships to Japanese waters. Thus Admiral Togo seems to be virtually placed between King Alfonso had a telephone wire laid from the scene of the disaster to the palace and by that means was kept constantly informed. He has repeatedly visited the hospitals. Some of the injured have died.

The president rode off into the wilderness as happy as a schoolboy. As he was passing through the woods out of sight of the band of friends that had gone with him outside the city he turned in his saddle and waved his sombrero In farewell. He carried, a hunting rifle with him and was in readiness for any game that might crftss his path. Seven hundred workmen are engaged in clearing away the debris. During the day students and workmen paraded the streets, colteeting money for the families of victims of the disaster. The public is contributing freely. er. Just as the love making of the son and companion is reaching a climax, the village busy-body learns something of the girl's story, and tells the farmer. He investigates enough to learn that there is some truth In the story, and then orders the girl from the house. It is night, and here Is shown one of the most realistic bits of stage craft ever given. A blizzard is blowing and the storm is seen as she opens the door. As she leaves she denounces her betrayer, who by a strange co-incidence is visiting the farmer. The son defies his parent and follows the girl. He finds her In a snow drift and takes her to a deserted sugar camp for shelter. Of course the farmer relents and goes to look for his son and the girl and everything ends happily. That Dark 15ro\vn Taste and Indiges- The first of the many tremblings came on the dawa of April 0. when nearly all the residents were in bed and asleep. The houses are constructed of massive materials because of the windstorms to which the district is subject, and it was the collapse of these heavy stone walls that was so fatal. The houses simply became n pile of ruins, under which the inmates were pinned. tion Indicate Dyspepsia If you have a coated tongue and a bad taste in your mouth, the gastric juices of your stomach are not doina their duty—they have gone 011 a yvmanent strike—and dyspepsia hp# its grip upon you. The governor of Madrid has prohibited a great popular demonstration of mourning which the workmen wish to organize, but he received delegates of the workmen's associations, whom he Informed that a street procession would be permitted under certain restrictions. Mr. Roosevelt expects to spend most of his time hunting wolves, although plans have been made for the hunting of small game. Six greyhounds were taken along for use with the jack rabbits that are plentiful in the thin brush and open stretches of country. The hunt will be confined to the tract of land thirty-six miles square leased by Captain Burke Burnett, a Confederate veteran, from the Comanche Indians. The region comprises some of the best hunting land iu the west. It teems with deer, wolves and small game of every kind native to the state. The president will have a turn at each kind of game, the programme, which will be followed as closely as possible, providing several hours of limiting of small game each day. A little later you will have a fully developed case of chronic dyspepsia and will begin to experience, if you do not already, indigestion, shortness of breath, nausea, with hot bitter fluid and partially digested food rising in your mouth; headache, dizziness. blurred vision and foul breath. With so much depending upon the issue, these Influences argue, both countries have common interests in avoiding an actual test, and it is not impossible therefore that a new move in the direction of peace may come just as the world expects to hear the call to quarters for the greatest naval battle of modern times.

He is probably coming through the Sunda strait, between the islands of Java and Sumatra, and. as lie has four first class ships, has nothing to fear at present from the cruiser division of the Japanese fleet.

Those missing are the Borodino, Orell, Alexander II. and the flagship Kniaz Souvaroff.
