THE JAPAN EARTHQUAKE.
At Least Three Thousand People Killed

At Least Three Thousand People Killed
and Great Destruction of Property.
LONDON, Oct Dispatches received
here from Hiogo, Japan, say that the
earthquake which occurred in that
country on Wednesday last destroyed
the towns of Nagoya, Gifu and Ogaki.
All of the public buildings and most of
the smaller structures in these places
were thrown down. A fire which
started among the wrecked buildings
in Nagoya completed the work of de-
struction in the most crowded quarter
of the place.
1t is estimated that the total mum ber
of persons who lost their life by the
disaster exceeded 5000. Many vessels
are reported to have been wrecked in
the vicinity of Hiogo, and during the
seismic disturbances the waters in the
lakes in the surrounding country were
violently agitated.
The various wagon roads are block

almost all communication with the de-
vastated places. In consequence full de-
tails of the catastrophe cannot be
learned for several days to come.

THEY SEE 1T At LAST.
Even the Bankers and Business Men Are
beginning to Understand what Is Meant
by the Term Money Power.

Even the Bankers and Business Men Are
Beginning to Understand What Is Meant
by the Term Money Power.
Mr.. J. +. Holden, of Emporia, Kan.
a banker and lender of eastern capital
by profession and occupation, has writ
ten and published book to which he
gives the significant title of Metallic
Money and Hard Times" In this book
Mr.. Holden comes out unequivocally
for the demonetization of both gold and
silver and the establishment of a scien-
tifc system of finance, which shall use
and recognize nothing but legal tender
absolute paper money. His preface
reads as follows:
ut is within the power of 210 men,
constituting majority of the American
congress, by single just legislative
act, TO produce among the industrious
people of the United States an era of
unprecedented prosperity, among whom
now reigns industrial depression; an
alarming condition of private, corpor-
ate and municipal indebtedness, and the
evils generally that are insepara BILE
from the centraiization of a nations
wealth in the possession of few of its
citizens.
This seemingly exaggerated state
ment will, in the opinion of the writer,
The Brookhaven leader. [volume] (Brookhaven, Miss.) 1883-1891, 1891-11-05

appear the more so to those least famil-
lar with the one immediate cause of
existing social evils-gold and silver
money.
IAN attempt is made by an appeal to
the reasoning faculties of such as are
capable of arriving at correct conclu-
sions from given statement of facts,
to establish the truth of the following
propositions, viz:
81. That the present inequitable dis
tribution of wealth is attributable to
the operation of cunning legal enact
ments rather than to the superior
energy or mental power of the few
who now legally possess the bulk of
the nations wealth.
''2. That, as in the southern states of
the union prior to 1861, few thousand
masters enjoyed the surplus earnings
of several million black slaves by the
operation of a legal system of chattel
slavery, so, at the present time, by the
operation of a more subtle but equally
effective legal system of interest
slavery, do a few thousand financiers
appropriate to their use, without max
ing due return therefor, the greater
portion of the earnings of the indus
trial classes of the country.
80. That the wealth producers of the
world are enslaved by single errone-
GUS belief-a general belief that the
natural value of gold approximates its
coined value as money"
Explaining the causes which led to
the investigation instituted by him,
which eliminated in the production of
his book, Mr.. Holden says:
"Some three years since, the writer
began an investigation of the various
theories advanced by different eco
nolnic writers as to the immediate
cause of industrial depression; such
investigation being prompted by the
discovery that, although, in the prose-
cution of a reasonably successful busi-
ness (that OF loaning eastern capital to
Kansas farmersl he was accumulating
property, yet from some unseen cause
such property was gradually decreas-
ing in value. In vain has he sought
for a satisfactory explanation of this
fact in the theory so ably presented in
Progress aud Poverty" and in the
writings of those who attribute busi-
ness paralysis to the effect Of the dis
eliminating features of protective
tariff
"In venturing to present to the pub
lie the results of his Investigation
which are so widely at variance with
prevailing ideas-a desire to treat dry
subject as briefly as possible has re-
suited in an expression of his own
views rather than in discussion and
refutation in detail of the theories of
those who attribute existing evils 70
other causes. In the presentation of
these views no claim is made by the
writer to exceptional philanthropy. his
dominant motive being an earnest de-
sire to restore that value to property of
which it has been insidiously divested
by the operation OF a financial policy.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-. Oct. 30.-The fol-
lowing dispatch was received this after
noon:
Lawyer Willard Bone, who has just
arrived from the western part of the
state, reports terrible prairie fires in
Gray and Ford counties. For miles the
Santa Fe train, on which he was pas
senger, travelled at its utmost speed
through a sea of flame, wit h every win
dow and ventilator fiattened down.
From the train could be seen burning
farm buildings and stacks of grain and
hay. and people and stock fleeing be-
fore the flames
"Mr. Bone says there must have been
a number of human lives and many
head of stock lost in the vicinity OF
Beaumont, Butler county. Thousands
of acres of grazing land were burned
over last night, fences destroyed and
stock burned or scattered in all direc-
tions."
The following dispatch was later re-
ceived from Omaha: Great damage
been done in the last two days and
nights by an immense prairie fire which
has swept over the country south and
west of Arnold and Candy in Lincoln,
Logan and Custer counties Thousands
of tons of hay have been destroyed
and many farmers who had not yet
threshed their grain in the stack. have
lost their entire crop. Another prairie
fire swept over the Wood river valley
last NIGHT near Olax doing serious
damage. 1t has entirely destroyed the
Kenebec ranch and two farm houses,

PARIS, Oct 31.-The Petit Journal
publishes news from Madagascar of a
massacre by natives of French soldiers
forming the escort of medical officer
Dr. Beziat, chief of the medical staff
of the French colony at Subervieville,
was ascending the Betsiboka river, es-
corted by eleven native soldiers form
ing part of the auxiliary French force,
on his way to Majunga, when the party
was suddenly attacked by Madagas-
can bandits, who opened fire up
on them from the river banks,
where they had ambushed them
selves SO successfully tat the
French doctors party was right
under their rifles before the presence of
the bandits became known. The native
soldiers forming DR.. Beziat's escort be-
haved bravely and promptly returned
the fire. They here, however, at great
disadvantage from the fact that, while
they formed a clear target for the
bandits the latter were so effectively
concealed that the escort was only able
to aim at puffs of smoke and flame
from the bandits guns The doctors
boat was kept going down stream as
fast as possible while the escort an
swered the bandits fire. DIR. Beziat was
one of the first TO succumb. He was shot
through the body as he was e.mptying
his revolver at the natives hidden on
the banks. AS he staggered and was
on the point of falling, a second shot
him, causing him to fall into the river,
where he was subsequently dispatched
with assegais, thrown by the bandits
from their hiding places. Eight native
soldiers were also killed. The bandits
plundered the baggage of the doctor
and took possession of everything port
