score of cities and towns in Sicily and
killed 100000 persons, Messina and
Reggie were again visited this morn
ing Oy quake which, mad the towns
been rebuilt, would have laid them
waste a second time.
1t would seem that nature is de
termined to blot out Messina. but re-
Gently one of the fairest cities in the
world. 1t is not yet possible to de-
tt trminc the number of casualties and
while some reports are alarming they
cannot be verified. The population
fled in fear, praying for their lives.
After the quake of last winter the
Messina people had gained moro con-
fldence and had gradually returned
to the city until there was a popula-
tion of $4,000. Now they do not feel
safe even in makeshift huts.
The shocks occurred here this
morning and at Reggie at 7:2C

MAYOR MCCLELLAN
REMOVES BINGHAM
New York Police Commissioner Put
Out Because He Would Not
Discharge Two Men.

New York, July Theodore A.
Bingham, police commissioner, today
was removed from office by Mayor
George b. Mcclellan, following the
refusal this morning of Bingham to
dismiss two of his most trusted lieu
tenants at the orders of the mayor.
The dismissal of Bingham is the re-
suit of a long feud between him and
the mayor.
The removal of Bingham was i'm
mediately followed by the announce
ment by the mayor that he had ap-
pointed william r, Baker. chief
deputy commissioner, to succeed Mr..
Bingham.
Proceedings in behalf of an in
conspicuous and friendless youth
caused the downfall OF Bingham. He
declined TO take pictures of George
Duffy. a 19-year-old boy, from the
rogues' gallery, though urged to do
so by efforts in behalf of the boy,

Among the prominent suffragettes
on the program of the convention are
the presidents of all the leading state
suffrage organizations, including Mrs.
Ella Hawley Crosett, of New York;
Mrs. Ella :. Stewart, of Illinois; Mrs.
Maud c. Stockwell of Minnesota, AMI
Mrs. Pauline Steinem of Ohio. All Of
the western states which have gram

represented and the beauties of the
system will be explained by the fair

Seattle is agrcebly surprised in
that the suffragette invasion has

common in caricatures, but an intel

While a majority of the delegates are

New York. July With the fail

champion to knock out Tony Ross in
six rounds in Pittsburg last night, the
betting in favor of Stanley Ketchel in
his coming fight with Johnson takes
new strength. The fact that O'Brieu
was not knocked out by Johnson, but
was twice knocked out by Ketchol
also lends color to Ketchel's aspira-

The fight was only permitted to go
six rounds and was called a draw
because of the Pennsylvania law

cheered whenever he landed "a blow

Washington. June SO.-The cor

the income tax was again the sub
ject of discussion in the Senate to-
day. Borah of Idaho was speaking
when McCumber, who disavowed
any sympathy with the remarks of
Aldrich as TO his reason for support
ing the corporation tax, declared
that Aldrich spoke for himself and
not for the members of the finance
committee generally.
Borah said he could prove conclu-
sively that the corporation tax meas
ure had its inception in the desire to
defeat the income tax measure. He
declared II would die when it had
served its purpose. He read abstracts
from a speech of Senator Lodge in
1898, which strongly condemned the
corporation tax plan proposed by the
Democratic minority.

AN ADULT AFFLICTED.
InfantiIe Paralysis Claims Larned
Man as Victim.

DIR. S. j. Crumbine, secretary of the
state board of health, has received
word of the death of man 20 years
old at Larned who is said to have
died of infantile paralysis. DR.. Crum-
bine received a query Sunday from
Larned asking for certain symptoms
of the dreaded disease and before he
could get to Larned and investigate
the case the man was dead.
This disease has travelled over Kan
sas for the last two months, killing
and manning scores of children. No
one knows what causes it or how to
cure it. The death of this Larned
man makes the second fatality among
adults. 1t is said that when infantile
paralysis makes itself apparent in an
adult it is always fatal.
1t is thought that the coming cold
weather will put a stop to the cpl
demic which has spread over the
state. The state board of health has
lately received notice of two new
cases in Saline county,
