CITY STILL UNDER MARTIAL LAW
Hundreds of Bodies Await Burial and
Epidemic Is Feared

Hundreds of Bodies Await Burial and
Epidemic Is Feared
BY Associated Press.
VALPARAISO. Chile, Aug. 23.-Some
of the business houses reopened today
for the first time since the earthquake.
Telegraphic and telephone communi-
cation with Santiago has been re-estab-
lished, but the lines are used almost
exclusively by the government officials.
The city is still under martial law.
Traffic ceases at o'clock in the even
ing and everybody Is compelled to take
some part in the work of restoring
normal conditions.
AS first installment the government
has appropriated $4,0O0000 for the relief
of the destitute. The custom house
was reopened today and traffic by
water and by rail has been resumed.
The postal service also is in opration.
One of the greatest difficulties en-
countered by the authorities is the in
terment of the bodies recovered from
the ruins, as all the cemeteries were
destroyed.
At the various temporary morgues
heaps of collins have been accumulated,
awaiting the designation of their place
of burial. The work of recovering the
bodies is being pushed to the utmost in
order to avoid an epidemic, in fear of
which many families are leaving the
city.
Through the whole length of Brazil
avenue and all over Victoria square
large sheds have been constructed to
shelter the homeless from the severe
rains
VIII Rebuild Valparaiso
Survivors of the earthquake say that
during the shocks it was impossible to
stand erect without support. A move
ment is on foot to organize a company
to facilitate the raising of the money
necessary to reconstruct the city. 1t Is
poposed to advance the sums needed
without interest for the first six
months
The plan is to construct the new
buildings of light materials and to lay
out the streets so that they will have
uniform width of twenty meters.
All the provinces of the north and
south which have not suffered from the
earthquake are sending supplies Of
money and food to the stricken cities
and towns.
The department Of public works at
Santiago has appropriated 100000 for
the construction Of sheds to shelter the
refugees from Valparaiso and else
where who continue to arrive at the
Chilean capital In large numbers.

II is the custom to place candidates who are
line with each other on the ballots. On those
sent to the Board OF Elections by the Secretary OF
State, Whtehouses name came a line with
that of Jaycox. Jaycox is a Republican and

years of his college life at Colgate University.
he was taken to the Sheldon Opera House,
which crowded to the doors with eight hun
dred people.
Two hundred college students. sitting in the
gallery, rolled out the long varsity cheer with
Hughes" on the end as the candidate came in.
Mr. Hughes recalled his college days saying:
Mr. Chairman and Fellow Citizens and Fellow
Students of Colgate: Thirty years ago came
to Hamilton as a student, and, while dld not
graduate at the university here, there are no
more vivid and pleasant Fecollectlols OF stuueHI
days than the days l spent under the lnstruc-
tion Of Dr. Andrews and others OF the uiliFeF-
sitv in the good old town of Hamilton on the
hill. 1 return with feelings of delght ana pleas
ure at the renewal OF acquaintance with these
associa tiOns and with keen sense of reSponst-
bflity with reference to the issues of this cam
paign.
EDUCATED HAVE RESPONSIBILITY.
Speaking to the college men, Mr. Hughes said:
do not share the idea that the educate l
classes of the community illustrate in their lives
most prominently the virtues that admire.
l have found in my experience that unselfsh-
ness and charity and brotherly feeling are for
the most part best exemplified by those who
have had the fewest opportunities and who
bear the heaviest burdens of existence. But
upon those who have opportunities and educa-
tion rests the most serious responsibility. for
we are he wing brought home to at this time
that the one great need of the American people
is the exercise of discriminating judgment and
the insistence upon accuracy and truthfulness
and sense of justice in dealing with the abuses
which aff1ict
Mr.. Hughes also said:
The day of bosses is over The day of dicta-
tion on the part of those who would assume for
selfish purposes to control the political inter-
ests OF various communities is The peo-
pie of this state and of other states deter
mined that they will have true political liberty.
They want their representatives to recognize
their direct responsibility to the people They
do not want servitude, but service straight
honorable, conscientious service They may
disagree with their representative this on
according to ones oath Of office and in the light
Of mis- own manhood, according to his conscience.
Now, in dealing with matters Of corporate
abuses, when we come to complex questions We
need study, consideration and concentration Of
thought. You cannot get these things into head
lines. (Applause) They are not adaptable TO
the business Of selling every day several edf-
tions of newspapers with something supposedly
novel in every one. (Applause) They are too
serious for that
After the meeting Mr.. Hughes took time TO
speak to some of his old professors and some
Of the younger generation. They told him that
if the rest of Madison County did well as
Hamilton for him on Election Day his plurality
would be enormous.
As soon as he arrived at Utica, at $50 o'clock
Mr.. Hughes took a special trolley to Herkmer
where he was greeted by an enthusiastic audi
ence, made up largely OF workingmen.

END OF A FARCE

The city council will not approve of
the mayors dismissal of the library
board, whose members unseated Miss
Jones and put Charles f. Lummis in
her place. No one ever expected that
it would. The dismissal of the board
by the mayor was a monumental bluff
in the first place, and has been proved
to be a piece of nonsense as well, be-
sides being a breach of faith on the
part of the mayor. He wanted Miss
Jones removed, and the board merely
carried out his wishes. Then, when
the club women raised a row, the
mayor crawfished and went squarely
back on the board. Naturally, knowing
these facts, the council refuses to sus-
tain the mayor.
This whole library investigation was
a farce, and never should have been
held. The board. everyone knew. had
a perfect right 10 remove Miss Jones
and to name her successor. A lot of
overzealous club women espoused the
cause Of the deposed librarian, ana to
their pernicious activity the whole
ruction il due.
