JAPs MAKE THEIR KICK.
Progressive Party Makes Vigorous
Protest Against Peace Terms.

Tokio-The council of the progress
sive party held a meeting Saturday
and passed a resolution strongly con-
1emning the government for conclud-
ng peace that is termed humiliating
and one that resulted in an uprising
in Toxic, necessitating martial law.
Count Okuma, the leader of the
party was absent from the meeting,
owing to illness. The resolution
passed reads as follows:
The peace concluded by our pleni-
potentiaries is opposed to the purpose
Of the war. forfeits the fruits of vic
tory and is diametrically against the
national interest. 1t is a lasting hui
initiation and the government must
be held responsible therefor. The eff
ficiency of the police, resulting in the
proclamation of martial law and the
annulling of the freedom of speech
guaranteed by the constitution is the
greatest offense since the establish
ment of constitutional government
'"The cabinet is responsible for this
grave offense."

EARTHQUAKE DESTROYS
MANY ITALIAN VILLAGES
Eighteen Villages In Calabria Said to
Have Been Destroyed and Inde.
scribable Scenes Of Terror
Enacted.

Rome. ALI Italy is suffering from
terrible depression because OF the news
from the south. where one of the worst
earthquakes ever experienced occurred
Friday Although the earthquake was
felt all over Calabria and to certain
extent in Sicily, the worst news comes
from Pizzo and Monteleone and from
eighteen villages which are said to
have been completely destroyed
According to the latest news re.
ceived $40 persons have been killed
and a great number injured. It is as
yet impossible to even estimate the
property losses.
The shock was felt at 2:55 O'Clock
in the morning. 1t lasted for eighteen
seconds at Catanzaro and soon there.
after was felt at Messine, Reggie. Mon
teleone, Martinano, Stefacomi, Pisco-
PHO, Triparni, zammaro, Cessaniti,
Mazda, Olivadi and other points.
Scenes of indescribable terror en-
sued Women aroused from their sleep
rushed half-clothed into the streets
screaming with fear, carrying their ba-
bies and dragging along their other
children, and calling for help on the
Mandonna and the saints. The men
escaped into the open with their fami-
lies, all calling on their favorite saints
for protection
The cafes were taken by assault by
the strangely-garbed crowd, but as
daylight broke without d repetition of
the earthquake the crowd gradually
melted away, until by 8 o'clock the
streets had almost assumed their nor
NAL appearance, except in the ruined
villages, where the inhabitants had no
homes to go to-
The general confusion was added to
by dreadful cries from the jails, where
the prisoners were beside themselves
with fright and in some cases mutt
MED, but fortunately all the prisoners
were kept within bounds.
Troops engineers and doctors have
been hurried to the scenes of disaster
TO assist in the work of rescue and sal
wage. The ministry of the interior
sent $4,000 for the relief of the desti-
tute, and Minister of Public Works
Ferraris left for Calabria Friday even.

Tokio.--The navy department an.
nounces that the battleship Mlkasa has
been destroyed by fire and the eXplo-
sion of her magazine, causing the loss
of 500 lives, including men of other
ships who went to the rescue.
The fire started. from an unknown
cause at midnight on Sunday night,
Sept. 10. Before the officers could be
rescued the FIRE reached the aft maya
zine, which exploded, blowing a hole
in the port side of the vessel below the
water line and causing the ship to
sink An investigation is now being
held to determine the cause of the
fire
The MilSasa was the flagship of the
Japanese navy, flying the flag of Vice
Admiral Togo, the COMMUNICATIVE chief,
but Admiral Togo was not on board
when the disaster occurred She was
present at all the principal engage
ments during the war and was on sew
erai occasions reported severely dam
aged in action. At the battle of the
Sea of Japan she led the fleet into ac-
ton and her name was mentioned in
connection with some of the most stir
ring events of this famous sea fight.
The Mikasa was one of the largest
and most powerful vessels in the Jap
anese navy. She was built at Barrow,
England, and was launched in 1902
She had a displacement of $500 tons
and her speed was 1876 knots, with
16,431 indicated horse power. Her
armament consisted OF four twelve.
inch, fourteen siX-inch twenty twelve.

Founders, eight three-pounders, four
two and one-half Founders and eight
millimeter guns
In the battle of the Sea of Japan the
Mikasa was the heaviest loser of the
Japanese ships, having sixty-three
killed and wounded She approached
nearer to the Russians than any other
battleship
The Mikasa was also the flagship of
Admiral Togo in the great naval
battle fought off Port Arthur ON Aug
ust 10. 1904. on which occasion the
Japanese flagship also suffered the
most, but continued In the lighting
line On that occasion the Mikasa had
four officers and twenty-nine men
killed, six officers and twenty-nine men
severely wounded and four officers and
