SIX HUNDRED LIVES ARE
LOST IN FLOOD
IN JAPAN
Rising Stream Passes Through
Town Destroying Every
thing In Sight.
WATER ROSE SO FEET
IN ONLY FEW HOURS

Victoria, b. c., Sept. 27.A-Advices
of a terrible disaster due to the
great floods prevailing in Japan have
been received here. The overflow of
the river Otonashigaw, running
through the town of Fukychiya near
Kyoto, caused loss of over six hun
dred lives. The river rose more than
fifty feet in a short time.
Streams in every part of Japan
are very high and the continual
rains are causing a constant rise in
the rivers, inundating the lowlands,
and killing off people, animals, crops
and every living thing.
Government Is Aiding.
The famine which followed the
first food several months ago was
hardly alleviated when the rains
again caused another inundation Of
the lowlands in the northern part OF
this island. The second food was
worse than the first and thousands of
people lost their lives. Hundreds OF
others died of famine.
The present flood exceeds in height
the other two and the fact that the
rains continue and that all streams
are far out of their banks. has led
the government to again take up the
relief work with a view to saving the
lives OF the thousands who are in
danger.

DUMMY ENTRYMEN
MUCH IN EVIDENCE

Boise, Idaho, Sept 27.-Several
dummy entrymen,' who made
deeds conveying the title to their
lands to George S. Long, were ex-
amined at the morning session of
the Borah trial today in order TO
get the deeds in evidence. These
deeds all bear endorsement as having
been recorded at the request OF w.

them declared that they paid moth
ing for recording the deeds, autho-
rized no one to pay fees for them,
never employed an agent or attor-
ney, and never even saw the patents
issued to them by the land office at
Washington.
The entrymen examined today all
declared that they got their money
through former State Senator John
Kinkead. Borah's counsel continued
the policy of not putting the alleg-
ed dummies" under cross eXamina-
ton.

EIGHT GREEKS KILLED
WHEN TRAINS
COLLIDE
UMnjured Section LdbOrerS
Drove American Crews Into
Hills Along Road.
ATTEMPT TO AVENCE
THEIR DEAD COMRADES

Bakersfield, Cal. Sept 27.-Ac-
cording to the latest accounts from
the scene of the wreck of the South
ern Pacific work train, which col
lided with a freight train near the
entrance of tunnel II, two miles west
of Tehachipi last night, eight Greek
section laborers were killed, and
twenty injured. The crew of the
trains are hiding in the hills to save
themselves from the enraged COM
rades of the dead men. After the
accident the uninjured men attacked
the train and threatened destruction
to much railroad property. A special
train with twenty armed men on
board has been despatched to the
rescue of the beleaguered trainmen
and the relief of the wounded. There
were about fifty Greeks in the car
which was demolished.
Greeks are Angry.
In addition to the Greeks who
were on the wrecked train, a num-
ber of others from this part of the
country Joined the crowd which
drove the trainmen to the hills and
"A good sized riot was soon in pro-
gress. Unable to talk English or to
comprehend the cause of the dis
aster, they became so angered at
their comrades deaths that they att
tackled the first American who came
in sight. Several members of the
crews were severely beaten before
they could escape. 1t is believed,
however, that the posse which
reached the scene today will simplify
affairs in a short time, though the
train crew is still in hiding.

14O COUNTS NAMED
IN THE INDICTMENT
MANY Violations Of Shipping Laws
Through Port of San Francisco
to Chicago Alleged to be
Cause for Extensive
Prosecution.

San francisco, Cal, Sept, 27.--Ac-
cording to a report In circulation
here, six indictments were found
yesterday by the federal grand jury
against the Pacific Mail Steamship
company and the Southern Pacific
railroad company. In these indict-
ments 1T is understood that the
names of Edward III. Hartman, John
c. Stubbs and r. p. Schwerin are
mentioned. The indictments, Ii is
said, embrace 140 counts and relate
particularly to violations of the law
on shipments from the Orient
through the port of San Francisco
to Chicago.
Many Witnesses Examined.
A large number of witnesses have
been before the grand jury in rela-
ton to this wholesale Indictment
during the past few weeks, and many
of the records of the steamship and
railroad company, and the collectors
of the port have also been produced
in evidence. The specific charges in
the various counts are said to each
concern some individual offense,
most of them being of the same ma
ture, though alleged TO have been
committed at different times.
The relation between the Pacific
Mail steamship company and the
Southern Pacific railroad company
was also investigated by the grand
jury, and 1t is stated that the evil
dence tended 20 show that Edwara
H. Hartman Is the owner of the
largest amount of stock in the two
institutions, and that the freight car
ried by one for export or import, Is
monopolized as far as possible by
the other, to the exclusion of other
roads and steamship lines.
Harriman's Connections With Of
fense.
1t Is said that Harriman's connec-
tion with the alleged offenses Is due
to the fact that he is the principal
owner of the transportation lines,
and not to the belief that he per-
sonally committed the violations, II
there are any.
Hartman, like any other railroad
owner, is responsible for the acts of
his employees to a certain extent and
attorneys declare that no criminal
knowledge of the offenses named in
the indictment need be proved to Sc
cure a conviction.
Believes Case Is Strong.
The prosecuting attorney today re-
fused TO make any other statement
concerning the indictments further
than to state that there was plenty
of evidence at hand to sustain every
indictment returned by the jury. He
would not admit or deny that the in
dictment had been returned against
the steamship and railroad COM
panies, Hartman and others.
