IMPERlALS WHIP REBELS.
Hankow Again in Possession of the
Manchas.

Shanghai, China. Wireless dis
patches from Hankow reporting a
sweeping victory for the Imperial
troops there caused fiutter in Shang-
hal. The reports were received esen
in official circles with incredulity.
Rebel sympathizers declared that the
dispatches were undoubtedly sent from
government source to bolster up a
faltering cause.
The wireless dispatches were caught
by some of the German naval opera
tors. They gave no details but said
that there was fighting all day at Han
kow and that the result was a sweep
ing government victory compelling the
revolutionists to abandon Hankow and
fall back across the Han river into
Han Yang.
Whatever the situation around Han
kow matters have grown more desper-
ate for the government cause in the
vicinity of Shanghai and along the
lower part of the Yang Use river.
There were persistent reports that
Ching kiang, 150 miles above Shang-
hal, was about TO fall into the hands
of the rebels. Ching Kiang is the first
of the series of lower river forts above
Shanghai and is regarded here as the
keystone of the defense of the city.
If ii falls, It is conceded that all the
forts below it as far as Wa Sing will
quickly follow.
Wa Sung, 10 miles above Shanghai,
marks the city's last line of defense.
West of Shanghai the wealthy city of
Su Chow is threatened while above
Ching Kiang three important cities,
Nan King. Yang Chow and WI Hu
are believed to be in danger. All four
of these cities reported that while the
situation was still quiet there is open
sympathy for the rebel cause and
probably little effective resistance will
be offered to attack.

NIAGARA BY MOTOR BOAT
CAPTAIN LARSON MAKES HAZ.
ARDOUS TRIP SECOND TIME.
Has Hard Battle With Stream in His
Sturdy Fifteen-Foot
Launch.

Niagara Falls, N. Y. - Capt. Klaus
Larson. of Detroit, made his second
Niagara river trip in a motor boat
from the cataract to Lewiston. He
completed the six-mile trip through
the turbulent water in rs minutes,
coming through without a scratch.
Larson says he is through with Mag
ara adventures, but next year will
make a trip across the Atlantic in his
boat, the Niagara.
Larson started from the Canadian
Maid of the Mist dock at 1.50 o'clock
and swept under the lower steel arch
bridge five minutes later Coming in
to Swift Drift, where the river breaks
from the calm upper reach to the rap
ids. he veered toward the Canadian
side.
The boat rode the small waves with.
out a termor, but, caught by the fierce
current about midway Of the rapids,
she was hurled up and almost clear of
the mountains Of water Once the
craft was side-swiped and almost
keeled over by comber. The rapids
trip took hardly more than a minute.
AS the Niagara entered the whirl.
pool her engine was working perfectly.
Larson kept towards the American
side of the pool, but he was caught in
a cross-current and was almost drawn
into the vortex
Once clear of the whirlpool, Larsen
headed the boat up stream in order to
put things shipshape for the final test
in the Devils Hole rapids
He was badly buffeted in the lower
rapids, but managed to hold a course
close to the Canadian side and at 2:14
o'clock passed under the suspension
bridge at Lewiston. He had made the
five miles between the bridges in 10
minutes.
Larsen made his first trip through
Sept. Is, 1910. The Niagara is IS
feet long, 5 feet inches beam and
4 feet deep. The engine is 14-horse-
power. About 700 pounds of sand bal
last was used.

London.-The Tripoli correspondent
of the Times, describing Italian retri-
button upon the Arabs, says that al
though the ruthless measures employ
ed were not commended, yet the ne
cessity for drastic action to quell the
insurrection could not be denied.
"The Italians have set themselves
to COW the Arabs" continues the cor
respondent, 'the floodgates Of blood
and lust were opened and In many
cases the men got beyond control. The
innocent suffered with the guilty. and
the memory of this awful retribution
will take long to live down.
Even making allowances for the
exigencies of the military situation.
there is every possibility that the hid
eous severity employed by the Italians
will give rise to a war of sanguinary
and pitiless reprisals upon unfortun-
ates who fall by the wayside."
