REPORT ON PACKING HOUSES
British Agent Findss Sanitary condi-
lions at Stock Yards Unsatisfactory.

London, Sept. 12.-Colonel Hobbs,
who was selected by War Secretary
Haldane to go TO the United States
and inspect the packing of beef in
tended for the British army, has re-
turned to this country. 1t is under
stood that he will in a few days pre-
sent a voluminous report. the gist Of
which Is that while the accusations
that unsound meat is packed is gen.
orally unfounded, the sanitary condi-

unsatisfactory. The report will con-
denim methods in vogue and make sug-
Sestions, which Colonel Hobbs be-
heves, could be carried out without
serious difficulty and the adoption Of
which would remove the objections to

STORY Of S|EDLCE RIOT
DETAILS OF MASSACRE OF JEWS
IN RUSSIAN POLAND.
SOLDIERS BEGIN SLAUGHTER

Fill Streets With Dead Victims Of
Their %Fury-14o corpses Picked Up
and as Many More Believed to Be
Hidden in Cellars.
Warsaw, Sept. 12.-With the
lion Of the authorities, who provided
an armed guard for the mission, the
Associated Press correspondent Wis.
tied Siedlce, the cen of the murder
Gus events of Sept. 8, 8 and 10. The
railway station at Siedlce. when the
correspondent arrived there. was
crowded with Jews, among whom were
many starving women with infants In
their arms. Almost on the moment
there fell upon the ears Of the fright
ened people the sound Of a volley
being fred In the town, which lies half
a mile back of the station. A panic
snsued, men trembling with fear and
women imploring the soldiers for mer-
cy, anticipating the slaughter of their
loved ones and themselves. Proceed
ing to the town the correspondent
lraversed Warsaw street, which pre-
sented a desolate aspect, the stores
showing signs of having been plum
dered. Everywhere in the street were
TO be seen soldiers ready to fire on
the least provocation. The streets
we're Uttered with Jews hats, torn
clothing and damaged carts.
The most severe damage was done
III Pienkna street, where the houses
we're riddled with bullets and in many
instances walls had been demolished
with cannon shots. At the Victoria
hotel the rooms had been broken into
aud their contents thrown into the
streets and burned. From this point
the correspondent vas obliged to turn
back, shooting having recommended.
Refugees state hat Governor En-
Selke was taken sick a week ago and
that control of affairs in Siedlce then
passed into the hands Of Colonel
Tuchanowski, an anti-semite. The
people at once began to desert the
town, apprehending an attack upon the
Jews. It is said that paid provocative
agents so contrived matters that the
soldiers began shooting in the streets
and bombarded houses, the occupants
being forced to fee. To quicken the
flames the soldiers threw oil on burn
ing houses. Soldiers opened fire upon
The Jewish hospital, killing two of the
inmates. AS a man was taking his
wife and newly born child to a hos
pital they were fired upon by soldiers
and the wife and child were killed.
By actual count 140 corpses were
picked up in the streets and it is
stated that as many more bodies are
hidden in cellars. Only II Christian
is known to have been killed and SO
far as can be learned no soldier wa
killed. The undisciplined soldiery
acted with the utmost brutality all
through the troubles.

how an English professor explained

"No.' they cried.
"He said it represented the effort Of
an uneducated man to make a speech.
Every time his vocabulary gave out he
lifted his voice to show he wasn't half

"Oh," said Constance, that Is neither

WELL" agreed Pyne slowly, that Is

he had a nice agreeable sort Of defini
ton, all ready for use, of the way Eng
lishmen clipped their syllables. The
other fellow allowed that he hadn't
pondered on it. Il guess said my
friend, it represents he effort OF an

Though the laugh was against them,
they were forced to Singer approval.

LOSS OF LIFE BY VALPARAISO
EARTHQUAKE NOT AS TERRI

lAaBoR AND SHIPPING ESCAPE
HEAVIEST DAMAGE CONFINED TO
THE POORER RESIDENTIAL
, .. SECTIONS OF CITY. F.

London, Aug. 21.-The Chilean lega-
tion has received a cable message
from Santiago reading as follows:
"On the evening of Aug l6 a severe
earthquake was felt between Val
paraiso and Talca. The loss of life
was not very great. The damage to
property was considerable at Val
paraiso, but was less at Santiago. Pub
lic order has been entirely maintained.
The authorities and private persons
are succor1ng the distressed people.
The foreign legations are lending aid.
The North has been wholly unaffected
by the earthquake"
Private cable messages received by
members of the Chilean legation tend
to show that Valparaiso did not suffer
as much as was at first supposed. The
heaviest damage was confined to the
eastern section of the town, which in
oluded the poorer residential districts.
The port and shipping at Valparaiso
apparently escaped damage.
A Liverpool firm has received the
following dispatch from Santiago:
II do not think there has been any
Joss of life or personal injuries among
the English residents at Valparaiso.
The police arrangements there are
thoroughly efficient. Arrangements
are in fair progress to supply food to
the needy. The fires and shocks are
apparently over"

that are still spreading over the

swamps. Millions Of dollars worth OF
property, towns and mines are in peril
and the danger hangs solely upon the
direction and force Of the wind.
People at various points are back
firing to prevent the encroachment Of
the fire upon towns or mining proper

the newer towns or those about which
the brush and forest still stand in
close proximity. Fear is also felt for
many of the homesteaders north of the
Mesaba. There are hundreds of these.
