London, Aug. 19.-The japanese isl.
and Of Torishima has been over
whelmed by disaster similar to. that
which fell upon the island of Marti-
niQue. =, j.. -.
At least 150-possible more-per-
sons have been swept out of existence
by volcanic eruption. ::
The eruptions, which began Aug. 10,
are still continuing, and the sea in the
neighborhood of the stricken island is
so violently agitated that ships cannot
go near.
The first eruption took place on the
afternoon of the 18th, and was fol.
lowed by an ominous calm, during
which several ships approached the
place and learned of the destruction
that had been wrought.
Suddenly there was second erup-
ton, both on the island and under the
sea, and in an. Instant the air was full
of flying rock, while the waves rose
mountain high.
Several of the ships had narrow es-
capes from being engulfed by the agi-
tated waters, while tons of volcanic
debris settled on the decks and threat
ened to snuff out the lives of the men,
bers of the crews.
: The submarine explosions extended
far out to sea, and it was only by
crowding on all steam that the several
vessels in the vicinity were enabled
10 get out of harms way.
The island of Torishima Is one of a
chain extending from the BONN isl.
ands to the Isle of Hondo, the largest
Of the Japanese islands.
: The island had a population Of from
$50. to 200 and was q: remarkably
pretty place.

UKcClO-KOMAN DcbAIE.
Christian Church we'll filled. 80.
Debate one of the Finest
ever heard in this City.

Those who did not attend the debate
at the Christian church last night missed
a rare treat in that line, as will be
agreed by every one who was there. The
general opinion that such subjects can
not be successfully handled by school
boys and girls, was certainly disprovsd
by the debnters last night.
The question for the debate was "Re-
solved, That OF Greece and Rome, Rome
was tho Greater" The question was
handled by Lee Hampton, May Weir
aud Linda Olson on the affirmative, and
tue negative was taken by George Hamp-
ton, Percy James and Gertrude Rupp.
The speakers were clear and distinct,
not one OF them failing in respect to
their attitudes nor the modulations Of
their voices. A closer decision was prob
ably never reached In any contest than
the one last night. The judges were by
no means partial, yet had they rendered
q different decision they would have
pleased as many people. for the majority
of the audience was undecided as to the
side which had'won. The decision OF
the judges was not unanimous, but the
majority favoring the argument OF the
negative, that side was given the decision.
The success OF the debate was due
more than anything else to the manner
10 which history has been taught the
grade by Prof. Fisher. After the gene
raj study had been taken for several
months, the class was divided into two
factions. Greeks and Romans. Each
faction then studied the strong points OF
their own side and the weak points Of
their opponents. In this way the points
for both sides OF the debate were OBJ
tanned and studied.
While perhaps there was some feeling
that the other eide should have been
given the decision OF the judges, yet
there was 80 close a contest that it was
almost impossible to determine who WAS
best,
Aside from the debate there was u
splendid program OF music. A recitation
by Ralph Rice, delivered in Latin, was
very good, as was also tho reading vi
Grecian poems, in the Greek language
by Prof. X. q. Rheinschusssel
The judges for the debate were Mrs
Q. F. Oaswell, g. N. Wheeler and Hor
ace T. DeLong. The latter made the
speech announcing the decision, and in
very complimentary terms said to the
ami native side that while they had lost
the debate, yet their arguments we're
very fine indeed, as wore the other feat
ures which we're considered in marking.
and that they were to be congratulated
upon their effort.

Union Pacific COntemplates
Moving Its Shops.
Would Bring 1000 Workmen
From WyandOtte.
IT MAY BE A BLUFF.
Company Has Had Trouble Over
It's Taxes.
Commercial Club Will See What
Can Be Done.
IT MAY BE A BLUFF.

Plans for the removal Of the Union
Pacific railway shops from Kansas City
are under consideration, and in event
such move is made Topeka seems to
offer the logical location for the estab-
lishment of the new shops. It may be
that the move is simply bluff to bring
the Wyandotte people to time With an
effort upon the part of the Topeka Com
mercial club it may be possible to Sc
cure the removal Of the railway shops
that are located at Armstrong, in the
heart Of Kansas City to this point. over
1000 WOrkmen are employed in the I'm
ion Pacific railway shops at Kansas
City
The Union Pacific shops at Kansas
City were built shortly after the civE
war and although they are well pre-
served for the length of time they have
been standing, the shops are all wooden
structures and at best are very poor 1t
is only matter Of a few years until
they viii have to be replaced by sub
stantial structures, and the question of
q decision as to whether they shall be
kept at Kansas City or located at some
other point where conditions are more
advantageous to the railroad, has not
yet been decided. However, it is told
on good authority the matter has been
under consideration and that if the pro-
per effort is made the shops may he
brought to Topeka with the 1000 EN-
ployes and their families.
The Union Pacific is very much dis
satisfied with the manner in which it
has been treated in Wyandotte county
in regard to taxes. About 20 years ago
when the cities OF old Wyandotte and
Armourdale were united, it caught the
Union Pacific with its properties and
holdings Just between the two towns.
The Union Pacific fought for a number
Of years against being included within
the city limits but eventually lost in the
struggle Consequently the railroad is
compelled to pay very high rate Of

COTTRELL STAYS TILLJULY
Agricultural College Professor t.
Complste His Experiments.

Prof. II. N. Cottrell viii not leave the
Kansas State Agricultural college TO
take charge of Walter VrOoman's model
farm at Trenton. Mo. until July /. This
is to enable him to complete valuable
farm experiments in which he is now
engaged.
The loss Of Prof. Cottrel is a serious
one to Kansas. He is one of the very
best agricultural experts in the United
States, and is so recognized all over the
country. While he is an expert along all
lines Of agriculture, his speciality IS
dairying and the production of beef.
He was for seven years superintendent
of Vice President MOrton's model dairy
farm in New York, but came west be-
cause he wanted to work in this region.
Although he receives a much larger sal
airy from Mr.. VrOoman, and will be
given liberty to run the big model farm
as he sees fit, it is said that the chief
reason why he leaves the Agricultural
college is the strife that is constantly
going on there and the lack of SYM
pathy Of some of those ia authority
with agricultural work. which is really
the principal object of the institution

Rupin, against J. NJ knight for $4,000
damages for running her life. The case
was tried at the previous term and the
jury disagreed. The case was being
tried for the second time. DR.. Ruptn
was being questioned by the attorneys
for the defense.

Yes, sir replied DR.. Rupin,

planation of why he had gone there,
and drifted to the wrong done his
daughter. The lawyers did not care TO
have him go into details. The attorneys
for the prosecution commanded him to
stop. DR.. Rupin kept right on. The
attorneys for the defense called upon
him to stop, He paid no attention.
The court ordered him to stop, but the
witness kept right on. Then Judge
Hazen ordered Bailif John Coyne to
escort DR.. Rupin from the court room.
The doctor was still talking when he dis
appeared through the door. The eyi-
dence in the case was then closed and

Attorney General Knox.

Chairman Bullowa and the other

their surprise when shown dispatch
from Washington in which Attorney
General Knox expressed the opinion
that the call for the conference was un-
warranted. Chairman BulloWa SAID:

taxes and a rate which in the estima-
ton of the railroad company is unjust.
More trouble has arisen this year be-
tween the officials of the railroad and
the assessors over the matter of raising
the assessment valuation of the switch
ing yards and other properties about
one third.
In addition to the high rate of taxa
ton the railroad has been made the de-
fendant in q large number of heavy
damage suits that might not have arisen
in a small city.
These matters in conjunction with
other circumstances are responsible for
an antagOnistic feeling which the off,
cials of the road have for Kansas City,
and which viii make il an easy matter
to secure the decision of the officials to
remove the shops.
The land upon which the shops of the
Union Pacific are located in Kansas
City is valuable for other purposes, and
the officials would also welcome a move
that would Vacate the land and make it
free for use in other directions. All the
railroads entering Kansas City are
somewhat crowded for yarding facilities
and the space covered by the shops
would make a handsome addition to the
Union Pacific yards
The people of Lawrence, Kan, were at
one time excited over the report that
the shops We're to be removed from
Kansas City and taken to Lawrence.

well known Bismarck grove but nothing

GENERAL ORDER 100.
1t is Called Up to Justify Acts Of
General Smith.

Washington. May lit IS reported at
the war department that its answer to
the resolutions proposed by the military
affairs committee OF the house as to the
nature Of the instructions sent to Gen.
Jacob Smith from Washington for his,
guidance in the Samar campaign, will
be very brief. According to the OFF,
cials no orders were sent to Gen. Smith
from Washington and the officer acted
entirely under the instructions Of his
immediate superior, Gen. Chaffee. 1T
also is declared that Gen. Chaffee was
not instructed from Washington as to
the kind of warfare to be waged in Sa-
mar The nearest step in that direction
is the republication as a guide of the
general order 100, the department taking
this means of calling attention to the
fact that the order was still in force
If the court martial now trying Gen
Smith accepts the view that this order
is in as full effect as when it was pro-
mulgated in the days of civil war. then
it is predicted here at the department
that Gen. Smith will rely for his ae-
duittal upon article 80 of that order
which authorizes a suspension of all
rules of civilized warfare and retalia-
tion when the enemy acts in similar
manner.
