New York, April 2s.-John Norris.
chairman Of the committee on papeE Of
the American Newspaper Publishers
Association, delivered his report today
at the yearly meeting of the associa-
ton. He reviewed the situation in
detail.
Because Of the strike in the mills and
the consequent curtailment of the out
put, prices of print paper have ad-
vanced 50 per ton. The canadian mills
tare taking advantage of the situation
and after paying total penalties of Sc
per ton are selling on this side at a
profit. He blames the International
Paper Company for the complications
with Quebec over pulp, which menaces
half the print paper made in the United
States. He urges the American News
paper Publishers Association to take
prompt action and remove this menace.
The paper committee suggests that
the members insist upon weight basis
of thirty pounds for 500 sheets, 24xSS
inches, and that tie yardage be in
dicated on each roll.

Danville, ILL.,, April 2s.-Severa1 per-
sons were injured and property dam
aged to the amount of several thou
sand dollars when eight bulls and one
female elephants of the Ringing show
stampeded here yesterday. AS the
pachyderms were being unloaded after
several hours ride from Chicago, one
of the bulls made a break for liberty,
bowling over the keeper and escaping.
He was follower by seven bulls. Later
while the entire force Of trainers and
keepers we're engaged in the unusual
sport of hunting elephants in automo-
biles, the female escaped.
For several hours the elephants were
at large, despite the fact that the en-
tire force Of police reserves was called
into action and gave chase. After es-
Gaping, the elephants moved for some
time in a bunch, then separated They
stopped for nothing except brick and
stone bui1dingss and small frame struc-
lures, coal sheds, fences and trees in
their path were pushed aside, turned
over uprooted and thrown to one side
At the home of William Miller, three
elephants found there was not suffic-
lent room for them to pass between the
summer kitchen and the residence and
pushed the kitchen aside, badly fright
ened the persons therein.
At the home of Joseph PEBBLES, after
overturning a shed and killing horse,
one of the animals attacked PEBBLES
and hurled him against the side of his
residence He is now in critical con-
dition.
Barney O'Neal, liveryman, was
thrown from his wagon when the herd
of elephants dashed down side street
and in front of his team, F. Krebbe,
one of the keepers, who was assisting
In the taking Of three of the bulls into
their quarters in the cars, after their
capture, late yesterday, was hurled
against the side of nearby barn and
seriously injured.
Other persons were slightly injured
when horses were frightened or thru
their own fright during the stampede.
More than hundred homes were>visit-
ed by the elephants and the damage
will probably aggregate $4,000 or
$4,000.
Truck gardens, orchards and many
buildings were absolutely ruined in the
north and northeast outskirts of the
city by. some of the elephants while
shade trees and residences were greatly
damaged by those which went to the
southward, toward the business dis
trict.
