earthquake last evening about .
o'clock. According to the many re
ports that came in from different
parts of the city It's duration was
about fifteen seconds. There were in
reality two separate shocks felt. Al!
though last nights shock was slight
it was considered the heaviest this
city has felt in five years or more.
The fact that Kilauea has been got
ting active lately may be the cause
e the slight earth movement. The
wave effect on land seemed to be
from north to south. Shortly after the
shake, the cable Office Was called up
and the operators said they had heard
there was a shake but felt none.

o. c. Allis, a fruit grower living near

that he thought 1t was more efficacious
to let hogs loose in the orchard than
to attempt to spray the trees, took a
stand for incubation of the trees with
asafoetida, sulphur and other ingred-

Alls who had been leaning for
ward, so intent was he upon the re-
marks of Van Houten, here again got
into the arena, with the remark:
Il see that my friend doesn't under

you get to the heart the water just

Van Houten, "how does tree live with

"For the same reason that a man
lives with hollow wooden Leg" came
back Allis, and then others, who be-
lieve in the efficacy Of spraying, took
up the argument.

Sioux City. Dec 5.-Developmcnts
are coming fast in the controversy
in the Iowa National Guard growing
out of the contest between Colonel
Chantland and Major Parker and the
recent election in the Forty-sixth reg
iment.
Captain w. Cornish Beck, of Sioux
City, resigned as regimental adjutant
of the lTifty-sixth regiment post he
has filled with honor for several years.
The second development is the ac-
credited report that startling charges.
involving men high in military circles,
are being prepared against Major
George NJ Parker of Sac City, will be
filed within few days by an officer
in Sioux City. 1t Is said that the
charges embrace nearly seventy counts
and are sensational in the extreme,
but their contents are II secret until
they reach Adjutant General Thrift,
of Des Moines, who will at once order
the court martial for Major Parker.
This action was decided upon by Of
ficers of the local companies OF II and
l., following a protest by Major Park
er that the election of Major Chant
land as colonel Of the Fifty sixth reg
iment, was fraudulent and illegal, SUBJ
hitting affidavits by various members
of the local companies citing irreSu-
larities. These atfidavits have fallen
into the hands of the Chantland forces
who will file counter claims making
sweeping denials of the charges in
toto.
The names of the men who made
sworn statements against Captain
Stafford Lieutenant Taylor, Acting
Commander Flynn and others, are as
follows: Miles w. Newly, of OnaWa,
Ia, battalion adjutant, who voted In
Sioux City who tells Of bitter dis
pute between Captain Stafford and
Captain Beck and alleges irregulari-
ties; G. E. Lindberg, battalion SER
geant major of this city; w. Cornish
Beck, whose resignation as captain has
just been accepted and who accuses
Captain Stafford of fraud, and who
says: Il was reliably informed that
the members of Company H, Gust r.
Lindberg, w. ]. Lynch, Louie Stolpe
and M. Comical voted for Major Park
er and that the election records show
but two votes in Company H were
counted for Parker" Captain Harry
H. Edwards, quartermaster of the
Fifty-sixth regiment and others.
II wish to state" said a well known
military official today chat if Cap
tain Beck had not resigned when he
did, charges of conduct unbecoming an
officer and gentlemen and prejudicial
to good order and military discipline
would have been preferred against him
inside of ten hours. And furthermore
every one of the affidavits are denied
