HORRIBLE HORRORS OF WAR
Sir Thomas Upton Speaks of the Aw-
full Conditions in Seryia.

London, March 22.-"Just as 1t
took fire to stop the great plague in
London, so fires are needed to clear
Servia Of typhus. Infected houses
and the clothing of the people must
be burned, as the disease is carried
by vermin," said Sir Thomas Upton
tonight in a statement to the Asso-
ciated Press, in which he recounted
appalling conditions in Servia, where
he has been making personal inves-
tigation.
Il met on the country roads the
sick, too weak to crawl to a hospital;
bullock carts were gathering them
up. Often a woman and children
were leading bullocks, the husband
and father in the cart, ravmg with
fever. Scarcely enough people re-
main unstricken to dig graves for the
dead, which lie exposed in the ceme-
teries.
"The situation is entil> - beyond
the control of the present force,
which imperatively needs all the help
1t can get-tents, hospitals, doctors,
nurses, modern appliances, and
clothing to replace the garments full
Of typhus bearing vermin."
Describing the hospital at Ghev-
gheli, where DR.. j. f. Donnelly of
the American Red Cross died, he
said:
THE place is village in a bar
rem, uncultivated country, the hos
pital an old tobacco factory. In it
were crowded 1,400 patients, on
mattresses, or even straT-men ly-
ing l. the clothes in which they lived
in the trenches for months, swarm
ing with vermin. All diseases-ty-
phus. typhoid, dysentery and small
poX-were herded together. In such
a state Dr.. Donnelly found the hos
pital, where he had a force OF six
American doctors, IL American
nurses and three Servian doctors.
"When | visited the hospital three
American doctors, the three Servian
doctors and nine Of the nurses were
sick.
"The patients were waited on by
Austrian prisoners. The fumes OF
reeking wounds and fever were un-
beara BILE.
THE first thing DR.. Donnelly did
on his arrival was to test the water,
which he found infected. He then
imprOvised boilers in which to boil
water. The boilers saved 500 lives
said DR.. Donnelly. lie also built
ovens in which to bake the clothes
Of the patients, but he was later pro-
Vided with n proper SteriliZing appa-
ratuS.'
Sir Thomas described Dr. Donnelly
as one OF the greatest heroes Of war.

BLEW TOP OF HIS HEAD OFF.
White Man of Greenwood Commits
Suicide With Gun.

Greenwood, March 20.-Belton
Horne, a white man about As years
Of age, committed suicide Thursday
afternoon at his home in the Cam
bridge section of the county by blow
ing the top Of his head off with a
shotgun. This decision was reach
ed by a jury appointed by Magistrate
w. f. Hamilton, who held an inquest
over the body.
The suicide took his own life
while alone in the house occupied by
himself and Jack Horne, and evil
dence showed that he had carefully
planned the deed. Upon his return
from patch Of woods nearby, where
he had been working, Jack Home
found the body on the floor with the
shotgun lying at his side. Ho had
pulled off one shoe and sock and it Is
supposed he pulled the trigger with
his toe.

near Baldoc, was shot and killed

Sheriff Morris and his deputies had
narrow escape from shots from his

cause oF his haste, answered with
pistol shots.

SHOTS ACROSS BOW OF GERMAN
Vessel by American Gums Turn Her
Back to Port.

San Juan, p. R., March 21.-The
German merchant steamer Oden-
wald, which attempted to leave port
late to-day without obtaining clear
ance papers, was stopped as she was
passing out the entrance to the har-
hor by two shots fired across her
bow from 5-inch gun, and direct
shots from Maxim. She then re-
turned and was taken in charge by
the collector OF customs.
Permission to sail was refused the
Odenwald by the collector pending
instructions from Washington. The
steamer has been at San Juan since
August Three days ago she be-
gan coaling and taking on provisions.
Failing to obtain clearance papers,
her commander apparently decided
to risk the attempt to put to sea. A
heavy gun on MORO Castle sent two
shots across her bows, but it was not
until the machine gun opened a di-
rect fire that the steamer headed
back to port.

Increased Production.

A feature of the crop was greatly
increased production Iii California
and Arizona, two States where the
cotton growing industry is in it's in
fancy, and where superior quality
Of the staple is raised.
California's production amounted
to 1885 bales, or 24,917,500
pounds, while Arizona's was 7,142
bales, or 3,571,0 900 pounds.
Unofficial estimates place the
value Of the crop, which this season
has been greatly reduced by the ef-
feet Of the European war, at $780,
0OO,00O for lint. This is based on
an average price of 7.2 cents a pound
to producers and an estimate of 70
per cent as the quantity already sold
with the remainder selling at an av-
erage Of 7.8 cents pound. On the
same basis the value Of the seed is
estimated at $134 100000. These
make the estimated value OF the
19ll-15 crop to cotton farmers
$704, 100000.
