STORIES OF ITALIAN CRUELTY
German Correspondent Reiterates
Charqes of Others.

Berlin, Nov. S.-Herr Gottbers, the
Lokal Anzeigers correspondent with
the Italian army in Tripoli, who with
Francis McCullagh, representing the
New York World and other correspond

Ian commander and left Tripoli rath-

of the brutalities he says the Italians
are perpetrating there, telegraphs to
his newspaper from Malta consider
ably amplifying the horrible story told
by McCullagh of the slaughter alleged
to be in progress in the beleaguered
city.
Following the Italian order to clear
the oasis of it's native population.
Gottberg says. as did McCullagh, that
the soldiers remorselessly chased
men, women and children, the sick.
crippled and blind. into the open and
shot them like rabbits.
No officer higher than a lieutenant,
the correspondent asserts, was pres
ent during the butchery General Ca
neya himself never even being seen
where shooting was in progress. There
was not a semblance of a courtmartial,
Gottberg adds, nor did the private sol
diers await orders from their officers
before shooting down the wretched
Arabs.
General Caneva, Gottberg remarks,
seeks to excuse the butchery on the
ground that the Arabs had mutilated
wounded Italians, but he points out
that there is no information that
women and children, the aged and
helpless, were guilty of such offenses

Shanghai, Nov. S.-Governor WI Lu
Chen OF Shansi province has been as
sassinated by Manchu soldiers. The
Manchus accused him of treason to
the throne.
WI was a revolutionist up to the
time OF the issuance of the imperial
edict granting constitutional govern
ment to China.
Like Yuan Shi Kai he favored ac'
ceptance of these concessions, believ
ing they obviated the necessity for the
dynasty's overthrow.
Hoping that he might win the Shan
ST rebels over to his views the EN-
peror recently named him governor OF
the province and he had practically ac
compIished his mission when killed.
BY his assassination all the work ht
had accomplished is undone. The rev
olutionists are convinced that no Man
chu can be trusted. no matter what hs

Shi Kai and others like him to sav'
the dynasty are almost certainly rem

GAFFNEy MAN KILLS FARMER
Prejudice Against Automobile Costs
Whittier His Life.

Charlotte. N. c., Oct. 20. Be
cause he allowed his prejudice
against the automobile to carry him
to the extent of drawing a pistol on
a passing car this evening, Sam
Whittier, a wealthy Cleveland farm
er lost his life. Facing the drawn
weapon in Whither's hand and be-
1ieving that he intended carrying
out his threat, Lucius Randall, a
prominent Gaffney business man
shot Whittier twice, killing him in
stantly.
The tragedy occurred two miles
from Shelby in Cleveland county.
Randall, who is a native of Cleve-
land, made the trip to North Caro-
lima to-day to visit relatives. On a
public road he met Wither in his
buggy. The latter alighted, and
drawing a pistol approached Ran
sdall's machine and announced that
he was going to kin him.
Randall plead with him, but as
he continued to approach, increas-
ing his threat, Randall drew his
own weapon and put two bullets in
the farmers head. He then sur
rendered to the Sheriff. The men
were not acquainted. Whither's
well known antipathy to the invas-
ion Of the automobile is the accept
ed theory in accounting for his ac.
tions.

"A travelling rug on his arm ex-

and the rug examined and found
to contain three little pockets, IN
each Of which was a valuable tiny
dog"
And these by no means exhaust
the means which women employ in
smuggling their pets. There seems
to be no limit to their audacity in
the matter, and the following are
among the we'll known methods
they now resort to rather than
have their dogs sent into quaran-
tine after Continental trips:
Suspend them in bags from their
necks. Women who do this always
wear well-buttoned-up coats or else
plenty of furs
Put them in big pockets of loose
"overcoats."
Carry them in their muffs, one
hand holding the dog inside the
muff. This is a frequent tried
trick at seasons when muffs can be
worn without exciting any comment
or suspicion.
