200 DYING DAILY
The Awful Ravages of Famine and
Plague In China.

Picking. - Famine and the plague
are sweeping over China. The known
deaths from the plague number 3d.
600, and, according to the official
statistics, the death rate averages 200
daily. Bnt the officials have little
knowledge of the conditions in the
interior, or if they have, they are not
permitting the facts to be known.
There are few or no foreigners in the
interior and conditions there for this
reason are not attracting much pub
lie attention.
1t is impossible even to estimate
the number of deaths that have re-
suited from lack of food. DR.. Sam
uel Cochran, an American, who is en-
gagged in the work of relief, writes:
Zone million people will die before
the first crop is harvested. This will
be scanty, because the people have
not the strength to till the soil and
no animals remain for blowing"

500 BURNED ALIVE IN CHINA
A Terrible Punishment of Starv-

From Plague.

Victoria, B. C. = Rendered des-
perate by hunger, bands of hundreds
of starving refugees are rowing
through the famine-stricken area of
China, plundering and killing, and a
reign of terror prevails, according to
persons who arrived here on the
Tamba Maru, which just reached
port from the Orient.
At Kunsham, walled village with
in so miles of Shanghai, the villagers,
after desperate raid in which stores
were looted and many killed, meted
out punishment peculiarly Chinese
in it's callousness to the raiding refu-
gees. A band of more than 500 are
reported to have been surrounded in
compound and burned to death.
The refugees had taken possession
of Kunshan and for two days ran
sacked the stores of everything eat
able, killing or wounding all who re-
sisted.
Many villagers were slain and 9TH
ers were taken prisoners and held
for ransom. When the raiders moved
on to plumber the next village, the
Kunshan people held council of
war and offered to pursue the fugi-
tives They came up with them in
small village and surrounded the
houses. The gates were locked and
the houses fired.
The refugees brought five prison
ers into the compound in view of the
siegers and threatened to kill them
unless the siege was raised, and on
the villagers pressing them back to
the burning buildings, they slowly
hacked%he five men to death. Three
other prisoners were tied to stakes
in the burning building and were
burned with their captors.

WILL TAKE THE
PAUPER'S OATH
Greene and Gaynor May Then

BELIEVED TO HAVE MONEY.
Government Decides to take No Steps
to Prevent Their Taking Oath,
but May Prosecute Them
for Perjury Afterward.

Atlanta, Ga.-Benjamin D. Greene
and John E. Gaynor, who have APP
piled for the privilege of taking the
pauper's oath, to escape the payment
Of the fine of $4,000 imposed along
with their prison sentence, for COM
plicity in the Savannah harbor
frauds, will be allowed to take the
oath, and will then, in all likelihood,
be prosecuted by the government on
charge of perjury.
This is the view taken by United
States District Attorney Carter Tate,
In whose jurisdiction Greene and
Gaynor are at present.
According to Tate, when Greene
and Gaynor appear before United
States Commissioner Colquitt this
week, no opposition will be made to
their swearing they are paupers. The
government, however, will warn
Greene and Gaynor that they are rem
dering themselves liable to prosecu-
ton for perjury. 1t will then be w
to Greene and Gaynor to decide
whether they will take the oath and
risk prosecution on a perjury clause.
The government officials are con-
Vinced that Greene and Gaynor have
large sums hidden and the govern
ment wants some of this money in
satisfaction of the fine. The money
Is believed to have been turned over
to relatives of Greene and Gaynor,
and it is thought threat of prosecu-
ton for perjury will cause some of
the money to be offered in payment
of the fine.
