GREAT TIDAL WAVE.
Wipes Out Two Towns on the Coast
of Jamaica.

Kingston, Jamaica, Nov. IA great
tidal wave is reported to have practically
wiped out the town of Savanna La Mar
on the southwest coast and Lucea on
the northwest coast of Jamaica.
Forty-two people were killed by the
hurricane in Montegro bay, according to
a report brought by fruit vessel which
arrived at Port Antonio today.
Confirmation has now come to hand of
the great destruction caused by the re-
cent hurricane in the western end of the
island. Floods, which accompanied the
storm, caused immense damage, a hun
dred houses being blown down. Tele-
graphic communication still is suspended.
The governor of Jamaica has left on
special train accompanied by a detach-
ment of artillery men who have taken
with them 300 tents and foodstuffs in
certain sections the people are homeless
and destitute.
The gale began on November Is and
continued in increasing fury for several
days. Vessels arriving in port reportN1
that the wind was blowing over 100 miles
an hour.

Clerk Instructions.
RETURNS ARE IN A MUDDLE
Expert Accountant Couldn't
Tell Who Is GOvernOr-Elect.
LeavenwOrth Says Hodges Has
Made Gain in County.

Each day there is some new element
thrown into the Kansas gubernatorial
fight that adds to the uncertainty of
results and insures the earlier beliefs
that the contest will end in long drawn
out litigation before the contest tribu-
nails. Attorneys for both Arthur Cap
per and Senator George H. Hodges are
gathering their final claims of revised
majorities in nearly one-half of the
counties of the state. These altered fig
ures will be laid before the state can
vassing board when it convenes next
Monday.
Attorney ]. S. Dean, of Hodges
counsel, is bitter in his denunciation
of a report that he agreed to a plan
for recanvassing the returns in the
various counties. Today Dean declar-
ed that the only agreement which he
has made was one regarding instruc-
tions sent to county clerks and that
this agreement has never been bro
ken. In this stipulation, Dean con-
tends, both sides reserved all rights
and Dean has not changed his opinion
concerning the legality of admitting
supplemental reports when the can
vassing board meets.
At the present time the supplement
tai returns are a mere tumble of fig
ures and an expert accountant would
be required to determine who has the
better of the argument on the face of
these returns. Chairman Dolley, of the
Republican state central committee,
sent an accountant to Leavenworth
county this week to investigate the re-
turns. In a morning paper was pub

DAWSON'S CAMPAIGN.
1t Cost Attorney General Only $3.50

Attorney General John S. Dawson has

which show that IN the race for re-
election he spent S556.94 The larger
portion of Dawsonss expense was for

mittee, postage, bills and incidental ex-
penses.
In accounting for his campaign ex-
penses, Dawson remarks that he wrote
and had intro duced the original bill, but
that it was so badly butchered when it
left the legislative mill as to be beyond
recognition of its own parent. Account
ing for his various campaign expenses,
Dawson'S expenses were covered in
these items: Assessment and expenses

Secretary of State Gives Out
Official Figures.
TAFT VOTE WAS 74,844
Socialist Candidate POIled &c.
SO7 Votes in State.
Wilson Total of 143,670, While
Roosevelt Got 12O,12S.

Woodrow Wilson carried Kansas by
23,547 votes over Theodore Roosevelt
in the recent presidential election.
Wils s vote in the state was 143,67O.
r ,osevelt received 120,12S, Taft IA
844 nd Debbs received 26,80 votes
the largest Socialist vote ever polled in
Kansas.
Returns from all of the los counties
Secretary of State Charles Sessions
show that in the recent election in
Kansas, Taft ran third IN the presi-
Dental race in this state. And yet,
his Kansas vote was surprisingly large.
It had been reckoned by the wise poll
ticie-nS that at no time was Taft'S
C, ance in this state better than third.
The fight was to beat Roosevelt. But
the final three weeks of the fight show
ed that Wilson had strangle hold
in the Kansas electoral vote and the
Republican league urged its members
to stay with Taft. 1t had been con-
$4,000 votes in the state, but his vote
&C almost $4,000 was. surprise to
even his staunchest admirers.
The final returns show that in the
election of November 5, Wilson car
ried II of the 105 counties, while
R, osevelt carried 81 counties. Taft
r &C we'd a majority in but two coun-
t1eS-Chautauqua and Doniphan.
Debbs carried Crawford county. And
for the first time in the history of the
state a Kansas county gave a majority
to a Socialist candidate for president.
The vote of more than $4,000 which
Debbs pol1ed in Kansas was another
surprise in the election. Added to
this situation is the fact that the So
cialists have elected one state senator
and at least three members of the low
er house of the state legislature. The
Socialist vote of 26807 is more than
double the vote of four years ago. In
tie 1908 campaign the Socialists polled
12,420 votes.
Roosevelts vote was scarce as large
as his friends had anticipated, although
Roosevelt ran strong in almost every
portion of the state. Yet Roosevelt
was the center of the fight in Kansas
so far as the presid dential situation was
concerned and the fact that he ran
first in 81 counties and second in at
least 35 additional counties, is evidence
that the Progressive leader was a DOW
er with Kansas voters ra
One Of the surprising situations in
the election was the fact that Arthur
Capper, Repu blican gubernatorial nom
inee and a Roosevelt supporter. was
beaten more than LOO votes in Wyan-
dotte county and Roosevelt carried the
county by nearly 800. Lyon county. the
home of William Allen White. national

Italian girl threw herself in front of an
automobile today and thus prevented tie
kidnapping of her s15-year-old sister Nicol-
Iata who had been seized near her hor'e

down Luigi, the driver of the machine
stopped and the delay gave the police time

his name as Lucchia Cera, came from
