J SHYLOCKS CAUSE FAMINE
Returned Missionary Declares Is Folly Send Shpoads of

AKLAND, CAL, Feb. 6.-Dr Maud

a medical missionary from India.
who arrived today on the steamer
Doric, after an absence of seven years,
says that it is foolish for the American
people to send ships fun of wheat for
the succor of the famine sufferers. be

the suffering natives at the same time
that India is actually exporting wheat

There is class Of men there called
banyas." said DR.. Allen. who are the
owners of the money and have no com

HAY ASKS ABOUT THE
CASE OF RADCLIFFE

Denver, Colo. Feb. 8.-The News to-
day says that a demand has been made
upon Governor Orman by Secretary Of
state Hay at Washington for an in
vestigation Of the destruction last sum-
mer of the buildings of William Rad
Cliffe. an Englishman, located on
Grand Mesa lakes in this state by a
mob. Radcliffe appealed to British
Ambassador Pauncefote for redress,
demanding 1000 damages of Colorado.
The trouble grew out Of dispute be
tween ranchmen and Radcliffe over
fishing privileges. and eliminated in
the killing of a ranchman named Wo-
mack BY one Of Radcliffe's men. a
few DAYS later the buildings on the
lakes were destroyed by fire, 1t was
claimed, started by friends of Womack
in revenge of his death. The matter
was originally referred to Governor Or
man early in January, and, according
to the News. a communication from
Secretary Hay has just been received
asking what had become Of 1t.

an extent they can fix the price at
which the product of the fields must
be sold. The farmer is always in debt
10 these men.
1T is the want of money and not
the want of wheat that brings so
much suffering. There have been two
famines during my stay in. India, but
they have been confined to certain dis
tricts. The rest of India could supply
these districts with wheat, for the
warehouses are full, If the people had
the money to buy IT.
We have often wondered why the
American people did not know this con-
ditiOn existed. We have been amused
at it ourselves. OF course. the wheat
is distributed, but where does q ship
load of wheat go with 100000 starving
peOple?"
Why doesn't the government inter-
tere When it sees thousands starving
and dying Of hunger Dr. Allen was
asked.
Because the government Is afraid
Of another Indian mutiny. To inter
iere with the banyas would mean an
uprising that would cost thousands Of
English lives. for they are the all
powerful class. The government can't
force them TO give away their wheat.
