the Popular Association Of the three
Eastern provinces, and the Chinese are
begged TO have nothing 10 do with

Crippled.

HAVANA, oct. 1l.-This city is In the
grasp Of a tropical hurricane. which
has unroofed many buildings. blown
down hundreds Of trees, and completely
paraiyzed the telephone and telegraph

Many lighters and other small craft

Tremendous rains have accompanied
the storm. The streets are flooded

houses filed with water The storm
showed no signs of abating until .
o'clock. All the newspaper plants
were so csippled by the storm that no
papers were published today.

Storm At Key West.

A destructive hurricane was centered
from fifty 70 seventy-five miles west
Of Key West this morning, according
to advices received by the Weather
Bureau. Hurricane warnings were sent
to all parts in Florida and along the
coast as far north as Charleston.
Emergency warnings were sent also
to interior points in Florida. as it was
believed that the hurricane would pass
over that state on its way Northward
Later sdvices to the bureau reported
the remarkable low barometrie record

sity." said Prof Moore, chief Of the
Weather Bureau. this afternoon. ct

tive of life and property. The bureau
is doing its best 70 warn the inhab-
itants of Florida, not only on the coast.
but in the interior, as well as coast
points Immediately north of that State.
It IS hoped that BY means Of this
warning, the effects Of the storm may
be reduced.
Indications are that the center Of
the storm will strike the southern part
OF Florida early this evening, and will
sweep during the night northward
through the middle OF the State"
Washington is going TO feel the ef-
fects of a cold wave now sweeping

aftermath OF the hurricane at Key
West.
SO far as snow, intense cold, or "A real
hurricane. the Capital is out Of the eX-
element belt. This is the comforting
assurance given out by the Weather
Bureau this morning
II is all the more assuring because
the Weather Bureau predictions regard
ing the snow squalls in the West and
the hurricane on the Gulf were fulfilled
TO the letter in developments today.
The hurricane still has the Bureau
slightly puzzled, however, as 20 its prob
able course and its duration. The fore
casters declare they can not size up the
hurricane accurately until it strikes

MUCH CONFUSION.
Because of the more or less con-

Aviator Wright, in Short
Flight, Shows Complete
Mastery of Machine.

Wilbur Wright could not find any
world records to break when he got up
at College Park this morning, so he

II for the third time without the use
OF weights and a derrick, and set a new
record, which somebody else can break

The new mark set by Mr. Wright
was for a plain, ordinary variety OF
circle. He made a circle IN Il 3-5 sec

not only was this mornings work well
done. but It showed also Prof. Wubur's
ability 70 operate the biplane at re-
marlsably short angles
He estimated that he flew about $50
feet, covering a circle with a radius OF
about l35 feet. When IT. is remembered
how sharply Orville used to turn at
Fort Myer when he was making cir
cles with a radH Of several hundred
feet Il can be seen easily that Chevalier
Wilbur's performance this morning was
out OF the ordinary.

tence of Fifteen
Years. 80
HIGHER TRIBUNAL
MAY HEAR CASE
Verdict Is Unanimous That OBJ
jections of Morse Are
Immaterial.

NEW YORK. Oct. u--Charles W.
Morse lost his appeal from the sentence
OF fifteen years Imprisonment imposed
on him by Judge Hough. following his
conviction Of violating the Federal
banking laws.
Appeals today unanimously affirmed
the record Of the trial, and declared OBJ
3ections raised by Morse and his attor-
neys were immaterial All OF the counts
10 which Morse objected are affirmed by
the higher court.
AS matter Of legal right. Morse has
no further appeal. though he can apply
to the Supreme Court Of the United
states for a rehearing of the case. In
such a case It would be wholly optional
with the Supreme Court whether it con-
Bidered the application or not.
Martin w Littleton. chief counsel for
Morse, was IN court when the decision
was HANDED down.
A little later Littleton and Morse we're
reported TO be in conference. The de-
.cision, which was rendered by Justices
Lacomb. Coke. and Noyes. was appar-
emily a great disappointment TO Little
ton.
In sustaining the verdict against
Morse the court says:
We fully realize the consequence TO
the defendant which must follow an aR-
hrmation OF the judgment. and yet we
cannot doubt that he was given fair
trial. and that the verdict on fourteen
counts was amply sustained By the
proof. No unprejudiced person can read
the record without being convinced that
by the defendant's procurement the
bank bought its own stock and the stock
Of the American Ice Securities Company
and that BY his procurement the entries

1ions were so arranged as to conceal the
truth ara 10 report transactions which

Morse was the guiding genius in the

big corporations, including coastwise
steamship lines. He was tried and con-
victed on fourteen counts Of three In
dictments. together with Alfred H. Cur

The chief allegation against them was
that they had used the funds OF the
