ONLY 500 OF 5000 ARE ALIVE.
Indian Earthquake Kills Almost ALI
the People OF kangra.

The latest accounts show that the In
dian earthquake was even more disas-
trous than at first believed. OF total
population of nearly 5000 in the town
of Kangra it is believed that only 500
are left alive. Many of these have fed.
Of the police only deputy Inspector and
four sergeants are alive. Many people
are still imprisoned in the ruins.
Dharmsala, Kangra, Palanpur, Dha.
wan and all the neighborng villages
were completely wrecked. Scarcely a
building remains standing. Not much
damage was done at Haripur. Deragopi
pur, Nadaum or Hamirpur, but Sujan
pur (having a population of about 5000
souls) is reported to be in ruins There
is no news from Kulu valley. bat ac.
cording to native rumors great damage
has been done.
An official dispatch from Dharmsaa
says the place is a scene of complete des
olation. Owing to the scarcity of labor
great difficulty is experienced in eXca
waiting the ruins, but the Ghurkas are do
ing excellent work.
At Sin1la, India, the vice-re5al lodge
has been declared unsafe as a result of
the earthquakes and Lady Curzon. wife
of the viceroy, and her children and the
vice-regal staff have moved into houses
situated within the lodge grounds. Lady
Curzon's bedroom was considerably dam
aged.
An investigation shows that the dam
age to the viceregal lodge is so extern
sive that the repairs will take several
months. Lord and Lady Curzon, how
ever, probably will be able to 0ccuny the
southeast wing during the season.
cablegram received in Philadelphia
from India by the Rev. C. I. Watson
secretary of the board of foreign mis-
sions of the United Presbyterian church,
states that all of the seventy-two mis-
sionaries escaped the earthquake.

CHICAGO TO OWN RAILROADS,
DUNES Election to Mayora1ty Makes
This Certainty.

The victory of Judge Edward F.
Dunno in Chicago, when he was elected
by about $4,000 majority to succeed
Carter Harrison as Mayor, means much
For municipal ownership. He ran on a
platform for city ownership and opera
ton of street railroads and so pronounc
ed is sentiment in favor of this plan
that his chief opponent, John NJ Har-
Ian, also stood for it, though on more
conservative basis. DUNES election il
the greatest victory municipal ownership
ever won.
Concerning his plans Judge Dunno
says:
First, 1 will appoint a corps of ex-
pert engineers to make a careful survey
of all the street railways in the city. so
that we will know just how the city.
when it secures control of the lines, will
be able to handle the proposition This
will take time, but believe that before
many months you will see the city of
Chicago owning and operating at least
one street railway line.
THE traction question depends in =
great measure on the action of the
courts, but in cases where legal proceed
ings are pending l will endeavor to bring
about an immediate settlement. OF
course, it will be years before the CITY
will come into possession of all the street
railway franchises of Chicago, but we
viii gradually assume control of the diff
ferent lines and in time 1 sincerely be-
lieve the day will come when the people
will control the entire street railway
system of Chicago"
Chicago will spend S1O0.O0O,OOO in
purchasing the railroads rights and as
sets.

THE RECENT BATTLE
IN MANcHuRIA.

Regarding the recent engagement in
Manchuria when Kuropatkin, under
orders from st. Petersburg, advanced
against the Japanese for the purpose
of diverting the attention of the Rus
sian populace from the revolutionary
movement in Russia, the Jacksonville
Times Union says:
II now looks as if the recent battle
A Manchuria resulted in decisive de-
teat for the Russians. At first the
Aews from St Petersburg represented
n as a victory. Then came the official
seport, which acknowledged a repulse.
Al the same time the Russians placed
their losses at 10. 900, while they made
no estimates Of japanese losses, only
saying they were heavy. Now comes a
report from Japan, saying that the
Russians lost between 10000 and $4,000
men, and that the Japanese lost 1000.
Il will be remembered that the Rus
sian losses ar Lao Yang and the
Shakhe river were at first greatly
understated. In fact, first reports
from Russian sources did not place
them greatly above the figures for the
battle fought few days ago. If there
ever was a time when a general would
be tempted TO conceal defeat, Kuro-
patkin would be tempted TO do so now.
The result of the battle cannot fail to
have a decided effect on the internal
conditions in Russia News of a vic
tory would have done much TO disarm
opposition 10 the government. News
of defeat would have done much to
strengthen il. There was never a
time when an admission OF repulse
could. more reasonably be construed
as an evidence of a disaster than now.
The only contradictory indication
Is found in the fact that the Japanese
cid not more vigorously pursue their
advantage, but this may be accounted
for BY the condition of the weather.
The mercury stood about twenty de-
grees below zero, and it was too cold
for men TO follow up victory. Unques-
tionably. however the Russians were
weakened by the recent battle much
more than were the Japanese, and will
have comparatively less strength for
the next fight.
