CHINESE IN
NEED OF AID
Population of I0.OO0.OOO Suffering
From Famine.
N'arly 100000 Actually Starving
Epidemic May Come Next - All
Sufferers May Die Unless Charity
Comes to Aid - Hundreds Perish
Daily.

Victoria, B. c., Jan. l0,-The steam
er Shinano Maru, which arrived today
from the Orient, brought further ad-
vices regarding the appalling famine in
Central China. The extent of the IA
mine area is bounded on the south by a
line from the sea through Human and
along the Huai river in North Anhui,
on the west by a line from Ochou to
Kweteh, north from the eastern corner
OF Honan to the sea which bounds the
eastern side.
The worst conditions are expected to
set in after Chinese New Year in mid
February. The population affected is
set at 100000, of which Viceroy
Tuan Fang estimates that 4 200, 900 are
in actual want, mostly starving. The
famine area is about 10000 square
miles, embracing between 20 and 80
large walled cities, besides the scattered
country population The figures given
from nine large cities show 500, 900
starving refugees have already collect
ed, with no account of those who have
migrated south or congregated in walled
cities outside the famine area
Mr.. Bostwick, sent from Shanghai to
investigate, says all these refugees may
perish from starvation unless fed by gov
ernment or public charity. He esti-
mates the daily expenditure to feed the
100000 now starving at $40, 900,
while the period of relief. must be ex-
tended over some months.
With tens of thousands of starving
huddled in the walled cities it is feared
epidemics will add to the horrors of the
famine.
The North China Daily News, of
Shanghai, publishes many kilograms
from missionaries in the famine areat.
A typical one from Hsuchoufu says:
"Half people actually without provi-
sions daily and die. Many leave coun-
try. Numberless brigandages and muir
ders. No local relief hoped for

Eugene last month, it was supplied at

was held for the purpose OF impressing
on the members Of the legislature the
necessity for railroad legislation.
The people are SO terribly in earnest
and so unanimous in their demands for
remedial railroad legislation that prac-
tically every other matter tC come be-
fore the legislature has been lost sight

a large number of people who We're at

they can get action at Salem.
At this meeting, as at Eugene, there
were none of the "cinch-bill' type of
politicians, and but little unreasonable
abuse OF the railroads. The attendance
was made up of people who have been
so seriously hurt in a financial way by
the car shortage that they are becom-
ing desperate and are prepared to 90 to
most any length to improve conditions.
The details or the form to be taken by
the proposed legislation have not yet
been worked out. AS matter of fact,
they are no farther along than when
they Were at the Eugene meeting, and
the Albany convention might not in
appropriately be termed ratification
meeting inspired by the Eugene affair.

Chicago, Jan. 11.-The investigation
by the Interstate Commerce commits
sion into the traffic alliances and other
business deals of the railroads con-
trolled by f. II. Hartman, was COM
pleted today, so far as Chicago is con-
cerned, and the commission adjourned

Julius kruttschnitt, director in charge
of maintenance and operation; Z. A.

Testimony showing that the consoli-
dation of the Union Pacific and South
ern Pacific had eliminated competition
to certain extent was given by Mr..
Hiland and Mr.. kruttschnitt, who ad
mitted that the purchase of rolling
stock for both systems was practically
under his control. Mr.. Mccormick

ANNUL TIMBER AND STONE ACT
Senate Committee Proposes to Sell
Timber and Keep Land.

Washington, Jan. 10.-The senate
public lands committee today agreed to
report favorably the bill to repeal the
timber and stone act and substitute
therefor a law directing that the govern
ment retain title to its remaining tim
Der lands, selling only the timber, at
not less than apprised value, As this
bill virtually creates forest reserves OF
all government timber .land, the land
can never pass to private ownership,
and hence can never be taxed.
To compensate for this loss OF taxes,
Senator Fulton secured the adoption OF
an amendment to the bill stipulating
that 25 per cent OF the money derived
from timber sales shall be paid to the
counteis in which the timber is cut.

THIRTY-FOUR BURNED.
Explosion Scatters Molten Iron With
Fearful Results.

Pittsburg, Jan. 10.-Three workmen
were killed, seven fatally injured and "a
are missing as the result of an explosion
tonight at the Eliza furnaces of the
Jones & Laughlin Steel works. Gas,
accumulating at the base OF the fur
naces, became ignited. In the result
ing explosion tons Of molten metal
were showered around the furnace for a
radius of 40 feet, overwhelming the
workmen in fiery food.
While the mill officials are inclined
to believe all of the missing men were
not cremated in the molten metal, moth
ing definite is known as to their where
abOuts. Only one man, George Knox,
has appeared since the explosion. He
says everything happened so quickly
that he doubts whether the men escaped
The scenes about the entrance to the
mill were pathetic when the families Of
the victims learned OF the disaster.
Women, men and children gathered be-
fore the gate and made frantic efforts to
gain admittance. Several of the fren-
zied women rushed upon the officers
and tried to fight their way into the
mill. Children ran through the streets
CRYING that "Father is dead" " Later
it became necessary to call additional
police, forcibly to escort the women and
children to their homes.
The officials at the mills refused to
allow anyone to enter the yard where
the furnace is located. Information
was refused to newspaper men, the Off
cials saying that later they might issue
a statement. A heavy guard of foreign
workmen was placed at the yard en-
trance and even the police were power
less to get past.
