New York, Dec. 31.-The work of
organizing relief for the victims of
the earthquake, which was begun
here almost simultaneously with the
receipt of the first news of the dis
aster, assumed official form with the
issuance by the mayor of proclama-
ton calling upon the people of the
city for subscriptions for the relief Of
the sufferers. Mayor Mcclellan will
act in conjunction with the American
Red Cross society, forwarding all
subscriptions to Jacob II. Schiff,
treasurer Of the New York branch of
the society.
A systematized effort is to be made
for the Capitalization of the many
channels of relief through which
funds for the succor of the hungry
and homeless of Sicily and Calabra
are now being collected. The Italian
Red Cross society has already been
recognized as the agency through
which funds contributed by sympa-
IHilSlS III IOIelSu Countries are TO Dc
distributed. 1t is now aimed to make
the American Red Cross society the
medium for transmission to the Ital-
ian Red Cross society of all money
collected in the United States. With
that idea in mind, Bishop Greer sent
out proclamation to the clergy and
laity of the Episcopal church in his
diocese asking that all funds sub
scribed for the earthquake sufferers
be sent through the New York state
branch of the society.
Already the society has cabled $10,-
600, and in addition the executive
committee of the national society has
arranged to remit Immediately to the
Italian Red Cross the sum of $4,000.
The Christian Herald advanced $780,
900 on fund which it purposes to
raise shortly by contributions from
its readers and cabled the sum over
to the Italian Red Cross society d.
rect. Another remittance sent by
cable was $4,000 contributed by the
Italian newspaper, II Progresso.

GAUNT HUNGER STALKS ABROAD,
RELIEF WORK IS ORGANIZED
Earthquake Victims Without Means Of SuStnance America and the
World are Collecting Funds for Their Relief.

Rome, Dec. 31-The immensely OF
the disaster in southern Italy and
Sicily can only be measured by the
fact that it is now estimated that
10000 people persisted in Messina
and Reggie alone A score of other
towns have been devastated and
thousands Of victims in these places
must be added to the roll. In the
face of these awful totals, all Italy
stands appalled,
Nor has the full death list yet been
reached. Shiploads of refugees have
arrived at Naples and other ports,
and the vast majority of these are
sorely injured. Other thousands re.
main near the ruins of their homes,
or wander hal, starving, half naked
over the land. The forces that over
whelmed the cities also destroyed the
communication has been established
with Messina, the apparatus having
been established in a railway van
Messages which have come over the
line, though they have been meager
in detail, show that hope is gone.
Nothing remains of the city but a
mass of ruins that have been swept
by fire. A mere handful of survivors
is being cared for by the rescuing
forces, but their distress is great and
it is increased b. the violent icy
wind that followed the deluge of rain
Destitution is everywhere and appal-
ling. There is little food and less
water. OF Messina's 10000 population
it is believe dthat fully 10000 per-
ished. Forty thousand people died in
Reggie.
Z King Victor Emmanuel and Queen
Helena were in Messina The king ex-
plored the ruins regardless of the
danger to which he exposed himself.
He was often moved to tears at the
heartrending scenes he came upon at
every turn. The king was loud in
his praise of the splendid work ac-
complished by Italian, Russian and
English bluejackets. who saved many
persons who otherwise would have
inevitably persisted. The queen spent
the day in the wards of improvised
hospitals, visiting the wounded, many
of whom lost all that was dear to
them. Her majesty did her best to
cheer them with womanly words of
consolation, often breaking into sobs
as she listened to their dreadful tales
of suffering.

MEAGRE REPORTS HAVE BEEN
RECEIVED IN JUDICIAL PRIMARY
Votes Being Counted in Some Outside Precincts in Clark Comfy and
Judge Benton Seems 10 Have Swept the County,

The election seems to have passed
off very quietly in this city. Much
drunkenness was seen among the
foaters Wednesday and Thursday
morning. There was no evidence as
to where the money was coming from;
but evidently some one was furnish
ing free whiskey, if nothing else. This
is, of course, in violation of the rules
laid down by the committee of the
district and in violation of the pied
ges of the two candidates.
Judge Hays charges fraud In the
election and that votes are being
bought. Warrants have been issued
against J. T. Stokely and T. |. Molloy.
One McCann in the Mt. Abbott pre-
cinct swears that T. j. Stokely ask
ed him to vote for Judge Benton and
offered him $500 for his vote. j. B.
Breeze swears that he saw Mccain
with a paper and then with $500
that he says was given him by 7. |.
Molloy. The affidayits were present
ed to Judge Evans and the warrants
were issued by him.
Judge Hays says that he proposes
to present the facts to the Democrat
ic Committee of the Twenty Fifth Ju-
dicial District and let them pass on
it.

WAIT ON REVISION
Iron Market Is Quiet Owing to Tariff
Uncertainties.

New York, Dec. 31.-The Iron Age
says: There have been exceedingly
few transactions of any significance
in the whole range of the steel in
dustry during the past week, and
there have been no happenings from
which indications of the trend of the
markets might be inferred. The I'M
certainties of tariff revision are be-.
coming more potent factor and are
expected to keep the markets rather
quiet until the outcome can be meas
ured. 1t is not believed that the sit
uation will be clear before early sum-
mer. In the meantime, conservative
buying by consumers will prevail
since they seem to be generally con-
vinced that revision means a down
ward readjustment of prices

is being made by the state depart
ment to obtain news of American cit
liens who were in the earthquake
zone in Italy and whose fate has
