TOKYO PLANS BIG FETE

Jnpnncse Certain Capture of German
Stronghold In Only Matter
of DAYS,

TOKYO, October 25.-Tokyo is max
ing preparations to celebrate the fall
OF Tsingchau. which is momentarily ax-
the capital of the German province on
the coast of China cannot hold out
much longer against the furious on
slauGht made by Japanese and Brit
ish battleshlps and men.
All Tokyo Is on edge. and IL is e1-
pected that n holiday will be pro-
claimed when the Kaiser's possession
finally falls into the hands of the Jap
anese and their allies.
1t Is now admitted here that the
cruiser Takachiho, previously reported
DESTROYED by mine, was really sunk
by the German submarine $50. which
escaped the blockade. The submarine
was beached to prevent capture.
Unofficial accounts say that the $780,
masked by heavy seas, dashed out of
the bay and launched her deadly tor
redo. She then ran the blockade and
was pursued by the enemy's destroy
ers. Foreseeing what her fate would be.
her commander drove her on the shore
and fired her magazines. The captain
and the crew of sixty escaped In the di-
rection of Shanghai and were taken in
charge and interned by Chinese sold
iers.
COM
mander OF the second Japanese squad
ron before Tsingchau, reports that the
condition OF the wrecEase 2: the Taxa
chino, the fact that the explosion was
visible for n distance of twenty miles,
and the stories OF the survivors con-
vince him that the Japanese cruiser
was torpedoed by the German subma-
rine. Immediately after the torpedo
attack the magazines of the Taxa
chino blew up.
According to survivors, many mem
bers OF the crew of the Japanese vessel
were blown overheard. These men
even then united in singing the chorus
of the national Japanese anthem, and
thus persisted.
This is evidence how bravely these
men died, and how they voiced their
love of country in the supreme mo-
mcnt." Nice-Adfniral Koto reported

ED AND HENRY BARRETT BOUND
FOR JOLIET PEN,


Ed Barrett, Hearst's principal slug
ger during the newspaper strike, is
going to the Joliet penitentiary. He
and his brother, Henry Barrett, were
taken to the county jail last night
after it was announced that the State
Supreme Court had upheld their con-
viction for the Staying of Henry Mas
terson.
Cook county still has few debts
to settle with Ed Barrett. The murder
of Frank Witt, street car conductor,
is still chalked upon the records
against Ed and his brother Charley,
and Arthur Friedman.
Witt was shot down in his street
car during the newspaper strike two
years ago. But three Hearst strike
breakers have never been brought to
trial on that charge.
The Witt case is probably closed
now. And it is probable that had not
the killing of Masterson occurred Ed
would be still Hearst employe like
his brother Charley.
But during a saloon fight last April
Barrett and his younger brother,
Henry, killed Masterson. The News
paper Publishers Association had
nothing to do with that case. There
was no chance of any unpleasant
truths coming out during the trial.
So Ed Barrett was let fight the case
the best way he knew how.
For killing Masterson they receiv-
ed sentences Of from one to four
teen years.

ONLY ONE THING TO DO

The call has gone forth for a con- ference of progressive delegates at Chicago for the determination of fu- ture plans. What the outcome will be is problematical. It is not pos sibIe of the same answer as if the question was what the outcome ought to be.
 It ought not to require a micro scope to discover the attitude of the great majority of those who formerly made up that party as express ed at the recent election. There are a few bright spots which may cause the light of hope to flicker along for while yet, but looking the situation square in the face there Is only one answer. Those leaders who are for the continuance of the party have made great sacrifices and die hard when it comes to throwing over their cherished ambitions with which they have failed to make any lasting impressions upon the rank and file of voters. Their course has shown the party not only to be needless but a detrinent to the very interests of those who were rallied to it's support. The natural thing Is that it has been deserted by great numbers. It has AOL pSSA Neh4olSl4dLCu L4AGt S4$4S4 Ii4c party, it's leaders or the policies are a bit better than what has been found fault with in the old parties. It has in fact moved along the same lines and employed the same methods, re- gardless of it's claims.
 Those who go to Chicago may have love feast, pat themselves on the back and jolly each other along into the belief that there is need for their existence but the best guide which they can take for their action as to the future is the extensive desertion which has taken place in the ranks, both before and since election. It is sure sign of the end and the only thing to do is disband
