Whole Towns Were Wiped Out
 by Earthquake
MANY ENTOMBEO IN RUINS
Earthquake Shocks Are Still Felt and Subterranean Rumblings Heard, Hundreds Are Destitute
 and Without Shelter.

Rome, September 9.-The effects of the earthquakes were more destructive than at first was reported The list of dead and injured Is increasing and is running into the thousands. Martirano alone shows 200 casualties, while at Parghella the number of dead is estimated at 900 and at Lappollo two hundred.
 Many persons are still entombed in the ruins in these and other districts and in some cases whole families have been wiped out. The greatest agitation con- tinues among the populace. Slight shocks of earthquake are felt occasionally and subterranean rumblings are still heard
 The worst is considered to be over. Those left destitute are beginning to feel the bangs of hunger and there Is also much suffering by those insufficiently clad. Succor is pouring in from all quar- ters. Official figures of victims of the earthquake in the province of Catanzaro show that 45O dead have already been found that about 1000 were injured and that there are an enormous number of persons without shelter.

MALLORY FAVORS
 LATER PRIMARY Thinks 1t Should Not be Held
 Before August OUTLINES HIS POSITION Thinks People of the State Should Not Be Subjected to Inconvenience of
 a Long Drawn Out
 -I....
OUTLINES HIS POSITION

Selma, September 9.-(Special)--H. S. D. Mallory. chairman of the state democra- tic executive committee, Is of the opinion that the primaries for the election of November 1906, should not be held until some time the early part of August of that year and deplores any effort to in- yolve the state in an unusually long cam paign. Tn conversation with the repre- sentative of The Age-Herald this after noon MT. Mallory gave voice to these sentiments:
 Tn the first place" said Mir. Mallory. the election does not come off until November a year hence. There is no nat ional convention requiring delegates from the democracy of the state meeting in June or July and consequently to hold a spring primary would be a tax on the farming interests entirely unnecessary and uncalled for
 The main reason, however, that urges the belief that the primaries should not be held until August next lies In the in- justice to thousands of young men of the state, leading democrats of the future, who have become of ,.ge or will become of age by July next who will be unable to cast their votes In the democratic pri- maries because they will not be able to register and become qualified electors un- til July, when the law provides for the registration in each county.
 T have this early had communications from democrats over the state on this point and I am firm in the opinion that he next state democratic primary should not be held until after the registrars have made their round and opportunity as been given for every democrat who will be able to vote in the November cleo tion to qualify so as to partFs if he so deslresu

Slight Change for the Better.

St. Petersburg September 9. 2:30 a. m.- The situation yesterday showed a slight change for the better. Though there were most alarming rumors, some to the effect that the Tartars were about to sweep the troops from Baku, majority of tine dis patches, including those to oil headquar- ters here, indicated that the rioters had made no headway in their attempts at in- cendlarism.
 Oil men, escorted by the troops, were able. for the first time, to visit the oil fields which for four days had been practically in the hands of the Tartars.
 Hundreds of tanks were destroyed and the pumping machinery is useless. It Is impossible to fix accurately the losses sus- tained but the rebuilding operations wlli take place immediately if the workmen Ie- turn. One oil man estimated the number of dead at over a thousand half of whom were killed In the city during the early rioting.

TREE SEEMS DOOMED.
Historic Elm at Cambridge Suecumbs
 to Ravsues of Time.

Cambridge, Mass, September 9.--The ground has so weakened and decayed the tree under which Washington took command of the American army on July 3. 1775, that the life of the historic elm is believed by the Cambric park commission to be nearly ended.
 The Washington elm, long venerated as the site of Indian councils as well as of Washington's assumption of com mand, has received treatment in order that 1t might be maintained, but the best that could be done has not pre- vented the gradual wasting away of its substance. The tree is estimated to be more than $50 years old.
