mated crop loss of $1,000, 900. and two

ing from the hundreds of homes washed
away, and thousands of head of cattle
drowned are the known results OF. a

relief is yet in sight.
From north to south, extending
across the State from the Mecalapa and
the Grijala rivers. which take the two
names after forking near Huinaguillo
TO the banks of the ~Usumacinta, which
for a short distance marks the bound
airy between Chiapas and Guatemala,
the country is a waste. Only the
mountain villages and plateau farms
escaped the waters.
Five hundred families are homeless
in the city OF Atasta alone. Other
cities and towns inundated are Huina-
guillo. Tenosique, Jalapa. Tlacotalpam,
Tlapa, Santa Rosa n a number OF
smaller villages along the Mescalapa
river, while on the south border of the
state, Jonuta, Balacan, Carmen, Pail

DELAWARE, GREATEST WAR
SHIP, WINS SPEED TEST.
Americas DreadnOught Makes
Worlds Record.

NEWPORT NEWS, Va. Oct. 81
With three brooms at her masthead,
significant of a clean sweep of the sea.
he new battleship Delaware has re-
turned here from her successful stand
ardization tests off Portland, Me.
where under 80, 00-horsepower she de.
veloped a speed of 21.9s knots. This is
the greatest speed ever made by a frst-
class battleship. She will low be
placed In commission and undergo her
official naval tests.
The Delaware is the most powerful
fighter afioat, outclassing the British
Dreadnought. In appearance she
differs from the ordinary type. The
forward deck is uncommoniy high ap6
broad, calculated to keep the heaviest
seas from dashing over the bows and
making it possible to fire the guns il
the forward turrets when the ship IL
running at full speed in q storm.

DOCTORS SAVE ARM OF
MURIEL VANDERBILT.
Father Waits All Night at Phone
for News,

II WESTBURY, L. l., Oct. 27.-At the
home of Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt,
jr., it was said today that her daugh-
ter, Muriel, badly injured by a fall
from her pony near her mothers estate
on Monday, was progressing favorably,
and would probably recover without the
threatened a~mputation of her broken
arm.
AT the same time IL became known
that William *. Vanderbilt, jr., the
father of the injured child, stood all
day Monday at his Deepdale mansion.
fifteen miles away, with his ears glued
to the telephone n motor-car ready
at the door to carry him to the side
of Miss Muriel and to his wife, whom
he has not seen since he parted from
her late last summer.
At the Westbury end of tn. telephone
stood one of the physicians whom Mr..
Vanderbilt had ordered into consulta-
ton to decide upon the seriousness or
Miss Murieps wounds
Mr.. Vanderbilt's passionate attach
ment for his three children had been
known long before he and his beautl-
full wife formally agreed to separate
without a court proceeding early in
September. His favorite Of the chill
dren is Muriel, and when the telephone
message reached him, telling of the ac-
cident. he went into a frenzy of grief.
He abandoned all his arrangements
for the Vanderbilt Cup race, and stayed
within reach Of that phone from II
o'clock noon until midnight. Then
came word that amputation would not
be necessary, and Mr.. Vanderbilt limp
iy dropped the receiver and went to
beu.

MASKETTE'S DEFEAT.

The defeat of James r. Keene's Mas
kettle in the Aaueduct Handicap was
the only regrettable feature Of the
opening day at this popular track. Had
Fitzherbert or some horse Of equal
class accomplished II, there would have
been no misgivings; but to have a high
class selling platter like Firestone dim
the record of the queen of FLIES was
displeasing to everybody who loves a
good horse. While the defeat of Mas
kettle was generally unexpected. Mr..
Keene anpounced before the race that
she would have a hard job of 1t carry
ing 126 pounds in going unsuited to
her, and so the ace proved.

WILD STORM RAGING ON lHE GREAT LAKES
Fears Felt For Vessels Out of Safe

Chicago. Nov. 2s.-Rain and slcet, driven by wind that at times reg istered forty-eight miles an hour marked a storm that ragged all day on Lake Michigan and throughout the Great Lakes region. Only a few ves- sels braved the gigantic waves. In the morning government life saving crews answered an appeal for help from the crew of the freighter Boston. which, after battling all night on the way from Milwaukee. was thrown rudderlcss and beyond control. upon a sand bar near Willamette, suburb of North Chicago.
 Eight of the crew of eighteen men elected to leave the vessel. which was fast on the sand and were taken by the life savers to shore Three steamers, the Puritan, the City of Benton Harbor and the Missouri. left Chicago harbor during the day. bare ly escaping serious damage by being dashed against the end of the pier.
 The government forecasts a contin- uance of the storm throughout the night. with snow and a lower tenn perature. Much anxiety is felt for vessels known to be out of reach of safe harbors.

GROWN MUST SUPPORT
 LIBERAL GOVERNMENT
OR THE PARTY WILL NOT TAKE
 UP BURDEN.
There Must Be Selection of Right
 Kind of Peers.

London. Nov. 22--It is my opinion that is is impossible that any liberal government can ever again bear the heavy burden of office until it is se- cured against a repetition of treatment such as it has had to undergo for the last four years
 This sensational declaration by Lord Loreburn, lord high chancellor. on the budget in the house of lords today had an electrical effect on the liberal mem bers of the house Of commons who crowded the galleries.
 Quitting the gallery they surged into the lobbies under the conviction that they had heard the governments last word before the general election. that Premier Asquith will make d similar declaration in the house of commons next week and that the long delayed campaign against the lords has now begun in earnest.
 It was believed that Lord Loreburne's statement would only mean that no liberal leader henceforth will accept office unless he receives a pledge from the crown that enough peers will be appointed on the preTnier's nomination to scurc the house Of commons against interference from the house of lords in financial matters. After the lord high chancellor had made his address inter est waned and the duke of Norfolk. who supported Lord Landowne's reso- lution. confessed that the lords had 8 serious problem to face. but said it should not daunt them in performing their duty.

is little water in the gallery and the air good Hope of rescuing many of the imprisoned miners alive was expressed by searchers. one of the exploring party penetrated forty feet into the lower gallery, which he found about knee deep in water. No sign of life was seen and no miners bodies lay near the shaft. This is regarded by the rescuers as proof that the men retrea,ted toward the end Of the shaft and that they will be found pre- pared to withstand long siege ,of hunger.
 Robert McFadden and Barney Dougherty. two miners who pene- trated 12o feet into the third vein. ex- pressed confidence that a majority. If not all. of the 150 miners imprisoned in this vein are barricaded in pockets and alive.
 Fire broke out with renewed vio- lcnce in the second gallery later and nov threatens to spread to the main shaft. All work of rescue has ceased. while the entire working force is fighting fire. Should the main shaft be injured materially by fire. all hope of aiding those in the mine for many days will be ended
