JAPANESE SHOT HIMSELF.
After He Fails to Kill Woman at
 New Haven. ssa.

New Haven, July 26.-H. I. Maka- ka ana, Japanese we'll known in st his city, shot and killed himself in a local hotel early yesterday morning. after ln unsuccessful attempt to shoot Mrs. Mary Roan of this city, who was his nompanion for the night. To the lsolice Mrs Roan made the statement that Makayama shot at her, the bulA lei grazing her ear, owing to her con- sfnued refusals to run away with him. She is now in New Haven hospital, laying nervous breakdown as a re- suit of the affair. sfss <
 Makayama left three letters sealed, Which told of his intentions ito kill himself, Mrs. Roan and a third party whom the police cannot identify. He had visited Mrs. Roan at nearby summer resort and persuaded her to come to this city with him During the night he had urged her to run away, but she refused She told the nolice he had ripped up a sheet and bound her to the bed during their oc- cnpancy of the room

 Best Informed Authority.
 And this is from one of the best informed Polish authorities in Eng land, the energetic young woman of ficial of the Polish committed, the bearer of one of England's great names, and the center into which pours all this mass of information concerning the colossal tragedy of Poland.
 There are many other enthusiastic Polish workers here, notably Mme. Syanislawa Bevan, the Polish wife of the prominent English painter, Robert Bevan, who is chairman of the com mittee looking after Polish refugees coming to London Mime. Bevan, born in Poland, has sacrificed her jewels to aid in caring for her countrynen. One of the rings she gave for the cause is significant of the burning hope underlying the Polish cause It is an old famiy heirloom, bearing date just after Poland was torn into three parts and passed around tD Austria, Prussia, and Russia. What n appears to be a seal on top is in truth miniature coffin, em blamatic of Poland's burial. But when a tiny spring is touched, the coffin opens and a Polish knight in the full regalia of old Poland, rises with sword aloft from his tomb in which Poland has slept since she was disme bered-
 The Anglo Russian entente creates many political obstacles to getting de- tails of conditions in the Eastern field for publication, and even in telling the truth. For example, Cardinal Bourne, archbishop of Westminster, made a remarkable address recently to gathering of Poles and Polish adherents. It was presumed that such an address would be printed in all its details, but when the text ap- peared in the Universe it was with frequent paranthetical phrases De leted by Inc Censor Even one of the appeals for relief of Polish vic tims has fallen under the ban and had had to be withdrawn. Thus England is loyal to her Russian ally. and the political status of Po1And is necessarily viewed in London from the Anglo Russian viewpoint. But the actuali- ties of the Polish people the havoc and distress among them, stand out in startling magnitude notwithstand- ing the veil which is kept so tightly drawn over the political status.

 Twelve Children Die Every Day.
 One of the scenes MT. Gibson pie tured was a Polish village where he passed a cemetery toward dusk and saw a crowd collected. On inquiry, he learned it was the joint funeral of twelve children who had died that day; and he learned further that this was the normal average in this and other stricken yillages--twelve child ren a day dying of starvation. At one point he noted an old woman who had crawled sixteen kilometers to get handful of black bread. These were merely few instances out of 8 great number which led him to the conclusion that the desolation in the wake of the armies in Poland was greater than that in Belgium, where he had made a similar inspection.
 The Polish student group here is al- so receiving frequent mail advices from their friends in the various parts of Poland. One of the last posted of these student letters summed up re- cent advices which got through as follows:
 Germans Seize Ground.
 "out of .127. 1000 square kilom meters in old Poland, 84,00O square kilome- ters have now been occupied by the Austro-G German armies. The depart ments which have suffered most are Kaliska, Piotrowska, Kielecka, Ra- dowska, Suwolska, and Plocka; also four districts of the government of Lonisynsky, ten districts of Warsaw which is a department half the size of Wales in addition to the city of Warsaw, four districts of Lubelskicj and five in Chlemmskiy. Out of 12,- 100000 inhabitants of this region, g. 100000 have suffered. Of 27s000 villages, $500 or about 20 per cent. are partially destroyed, and another 1000 villages are completely leveled to the ground, not trace of them re-. maining beyond the heaps of smould- ering rubbish and ruin.''
 The peasantry are pictured as mov- ing about like great tribes of gypsies over the blackened fields, carrying and pushing their scant belongings in small carts Miss Alma-Tadema gives a graphic picture of this wholesale desolation: Industry is at a stand still; millions are out of work; the meadows and arabic lands are fur roWed by deep trenches, riddled with shellholes; the sambe tracts have been swept over and over by immense battle waves; nothing remains. The barns and ricks are burned: the horses and cattle all stolen or slain ruin everywhere. The women and children have been driven out into the open, they cover in the woods; the nanse. the manor house. the old castle in the park, all are destroyed there is no, one to help, there is nowhere to fly
