Picking, Dec. pa revolutionary
movement under the leadership Of

The Chinese government has sent
10000 soldiers to quell the revolt.
The troops have been sent from
Szechuen province, in Western China,
bordering on Tibet. The uprising
started at Yuannanfu, in Yunan PRIV
ince.
Tsai 40 is bitter opponent Of the
monarchy which is to be restored.

chiefship at Picking, alleging his health
had failed. He returned secretly to
Yunan, where he had been the most
prominent leader under DR.. Sun Vat
Sen, the first provincial president of
China, who of late is reported to have
been conducting revolutionary propa-
ganda.

Rain, Hail, Snow, Thunder and
Lightning in East.
HURRICANE VISITS new YORK
Gale Reaches Velocity Of Ninety Miles
an Hour in Gotham, Resulting
in Seven Deaths.

New York, Dec. 27.-One of the
weirdist storms the East has seen
in many years-rain, hail and snow,
accompanied by thunder and lightning
and a gale that reached maximum
velocity of ninety miles an hour-de'
scended from the northwest as the
aftermath of a Christmas fog.
1t caused seven deaths in this vi.
cinity, carried down telegraph wires,
damaged shipping, crippled railroad
traffic and caused considerable proper
ty damage.
A gale from the south, accompanied
by rain, had been blowing, but the
temperature dropped, changing the
rain to hail and then to snow.
The local weather bureau reported
a total precipitation of SO inches, of
which 2.8 was snow.
The wind shifted to the northwest
and increased in violence, reaching
it's ninety-mile intensity, and soon
after carrying off the storm clouds.
The gale continued, however, blowing
in hundreds of plate glass windows,
hurting signs and copings to the
streets and demolishing several part
ly built structures.
The storm had it's center in Massa-
chusetts and the telegraph companies
said their service in New England had
been crippled, although communica-
ton had not been entirely lost with
the principal cities.
Shipping of all kinds scurried to
shelter to escape the heavy seas and
several ocean liners dropped anchor.
Twenty-Five persons aboard fifteen
canal boats, driven ashore off Sandy
Hook, we're rescued by the coast
guard crew.
