Millions Starving to Death.

NEW YoRK. January "A cable special
gives extracts from the London Stdadards 5
Shanghai correspondence in regard to the
tremendous loss of life in China, from the
overflow of the HOang Ho river aud the tre-
mendous famine now Threatened II says
About one-sixth of the entire area of the
Garden of China, as Ho Nan is styled, is now
converted into a vast lake, with here and
there a pagoda top or the gable of some high
er wall rising over the ever increasing wa
tiers TO mark the site of what were but short
time ago prosperous cities. The rest OF the
country is overrnn with wretched refugees
who were fortunate enough TO escape with
their lives, though with naught else.
In hundreds of instances men who three
short weeks ago were men of wealth to-day
sit stunned. hungry. stupid and detected,
without rag to wear or a morsel of food TO
eat. The inuEdations commenced a little
distance from Kia! Fung Fu one Of the larg-
est cities of the province. and in an instant
almost some four miles of a solid embank-
memt of stone brick. sand and clay were
swept away In the districts of Ching Chow
and Chen Chow. no less than 5000 large vii
lages were engulfed and scarcely any of their
ill-fated people had time to save themselves,
as the breach occurred in the night time
The accounts daily published in the native
and foreign papers reveal the fact that the
most horrible sufierings were undergone by
the survivors, who are now perishing of
famine. According TO the most trustworthy
authorities, the loss of life will be numbered
literally by hundreds of thousands, while the
starving people must amount TO millions.

Soldiers Angered.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Strand Army of the
Republic men are indignant over the recent
developments in connection with the death
and ignobe burial of Captain Amos Cliff an
old comrade. Captain Cliff was employed
in the Pension office. He had served on
General McCleIan's staff and was a post
commander of Post No. 30, Mystic River,
Conn. Captain Cliff went TO Providence
Hospital. an institution in this city, for the
maintenance of which Congress appropriates
$4,000 annually After being in the hospi-
tai while and without giving any informa-
tion about himself or friends, he died on De
cember oath. He was buried in Potter's
Field and day before yesterday his body was
discovered on a dissecting table in the
Georgetown Medical College.
His friends in the Pension Office and
Grand Army men were unaware of his death
for week or more after it occurred and
were then inexpressibly shocked to hear
that he had been buried in Potter's Field.
Tomorrow Captain Gifts remains will be
decently inferred by the Grand Army of the
Republic comrades with Christian ceromo-
nies in Arlington Cemetery. Grand Army
of the Republic men blame the hospital au-
thorities for not taking proper steps tn find
ont Captain Gifts friends before burying
him like pauper, and propose to go to the
bottom of the whole matter.

Lamars Last Act.


WASHINGTON, January 9.--Secretary La
mar will retire from the head of the Depart
ment of the Interior tomorrow, and Assist
ant Secretary Muldrow will act as Secretary
until the confirmation of Villas Secretary
Lamars last official act was the removal of
John W Lebarnes, of the District of Column
bia, one of the two law clerks in the Gener-
al Land Office, and the appointment Of
John v Wright, an ex-Confederafe from
Tennessee who is now chief of the mineral
division of the land office
The removal of Lebarnes was due to his
disagreement with the Secretarys policy in
regard To the land decision adopted shortly
after the President decided to nominate him
for the supreme Bench, and from which re-
suited the forcing out OF office of Commits
sioner Sparks and several obscurer persons.
Mr.. Lebarnes states that his disagreement
with the Secretary was based upon the clear,
unmistakable letter of the law He thinks
that the Secretary had no thought of his re-
moyal until within the last few days, when
a request for removal was made by certain
Republican Senators who will vote for
Larnars confirmation At any rate he
thinks il would have been in better taste if
the Secretarys successor in office had been
left to deal with him

Ohio's Governor Says CleveIand's
Ideas Would Cause Industrial
Disaster.

CoLUMBUs, Jan. 2.-Governor Foraker's
message was read to both Houses late to-day
Ii concludes with a reference to the Presi-
dents message, in which it is argued that if
the Presidents proposition prevail the couse-
quences will be disastrous to every industry
and section OF the country, and to no class
more surely than the farmers and the labor
ing people.
Other and better ways can be provided TOR
disposing of the surplus revenues than by
breaking down our home industry and ex-
posing our labor to foreign competition. We
should stand firmly together in support of a
Protective tariff policy which has been pur-
sued for . years. We should afford direct
Protection to our labor by carefully discrim-
mating against every kind of soeialistic,
criminal and disreputablc characters who
may seek 20 iiunsigrate to our shores Next
after our obligation TO God it is our highest
duty TO take care of America.

BlackIistins Drunkards.

ATLANTA. Ca, January s.--A certain fea :
ture of the new liquor law in Atlanta is the
blacklist. When a man appears before the
City Recorder ON charge Of drunkenness
for the second time, and he is convicted, he
is black-hsted, and his name is furnished 10
ali liquor dealers. who under a penalty of
$500 line, are forbidden 10 sell him liquor
within one year. The first case has already
developed, being that Of Peter Dunlap He
was first convicted December %, and now
for the second time is again convicted, and
his name stands qt the head Of the Atlanta
black list. There is but little sympathy for
the prisoner, but the feature of the law which
requires every dealer TO keep such persons in
mind for year Is regarded as onerous and
likely to lead to appeals in behalf Of person
al liberty equally as loud as were the COM
plants against the original prohibition law.

Moody Draws the Color Line.


LouIsyILLE, KY, Jan. 5.-Much dissatis-
faction has arisen among the colored churches
of the city because the managers of the
Moody meetings have made arrangements
for separate Sunday services for their race.
The meetings begin next Sunday, and will
continue one month. When the programme
was announced it was stated that Mr..
Moody would hold services for c.lored peo-
pie only at II o'clock Sundays A eolored
pastor objected that it would interfere with
their regular services, but it was stated that
Mr.. Moody had fixed the hour himself, and
nothing more was said.
The dissatisfaction has been growing since
and to-day Revs. w. H. Venable, we'll
known colored ministers. began agitating
the matter. Mr.. Venable declares that such
an attempt to draw the color line will cause
his people TO stay away from the meetings
altogether. The managers say the matter
will be referred To Mr.. Moody for settlement
