ENGLAND IN AN UPROAR WHEN
 PAPERS ATTACK LEADERSHIP
BRITISH PAPERS ACCUSE

LONDON, Jan. 7.-The newspapers of London this morning almost unanimously arraign the government and military leaders in manner which has probably never been heard of in history The papers declare that the members of the and the directors ot the war have shown nothing but inactivity and ndecsion from the beginning and that the empire is faced by dS aSter through their ncompetency The report o1 General Ian Hamilton on the situation at the Dardanees to Lord
 Kitchener has been published to show what is called the criminal incompetence of the military leaders It IS shown by the report that Kitchener asked Hamilton to give an estimate of what he believed the losses would be
 in the evacuation of Galpo peninsula and that Hamilton answered on October II that the idea of evacuatg was unthinkabe and that it would mean tremendous disaster as well as an rredeemable loss of prestige In SptG oI this the report shows General Hamilton was relieved o1 his command on October 16 five days later and the order was given for the army to retreat from the DardaneeS The newspapers also declare that the SEya Bay landing failed and ended in disaster because the British troops were untraned and incompetent and for this all the great journals are blaming the government and Mtchehef' The whole nation seems to be overwna named an 70 oae dares to prophecy what the outcome of 1t all will be-

NOME ON VERGE OF
 DESTRUCTION BY ICE
Storm Piles Ice Mountains Near City and Sesnon Caisson and Pier
 Are Crushed.

NOME, Jan. 4-(Delayed in Transmission)-The city of Nome was threatened with destruction last night when terrific storm drove the ice of Boring Sea nshOre and piled it into mountains against the doors of the build
 ngs the beach side of Front street In places the ice piled up for over fifty feet and towers above the buildings so that one standing on Front street itself can look over the tops of the houses at great glacial peaks rising from within few feet of the boarded thoroughfares The Sesnon caisson and pier which have stood all the storms of years were crushed crumbed and destroyed like an eggshel For time the people believed that only few hours more would be necessary to have the whole business part of the city buried under the ice mountain which rose as the storm drove it in from the ocean, bowling blz gard accompanied the storm and made matters look even worse than they As the ice foes came in the tond atons of the buildings seemed to act as dam and sea after sea rushed in to pile berg on berg In spite of all this the line of buildings remanied intact except that the backs of the houses walled in with ice Above and below the city vast piles of ice have been heaped to great elevations on the tundra Along Front street the sea shut out from view at Barracks square and elsewhere by the great emountan ridge When the stupendous piles of ice are taken into account the wonder is that the dam age was not disastrous At the mouth of Snake river and along the Spit vast bergs piled on top of each other pre- sent most extraordinary spectacle AS this message being sent the storm is moderatng and the danger IS be- lieved to be over

 fired the first shot in the war of labor against enforced military service by reSgning his place in the cabinet as protest in behalf of labor against what he calls the de- struction of British liberties Two other members of the cabinet will likely resign immediately and it is now universally believed that general election will be precpl- tated and the whole government be OverhrOwn. Never was such scene witnessed in the British house of com mons as the time came for the voting the momenouS measure The opposing sides deieyered the most bitter speeches and terrible tension carried all through the sit
 ting Then came the cries to divide and the closure and members walked off to the voting Hobbies manner that gave the impression that each believed he about to vote on question which involved the welfare of the em- pre As the result of the vote announced the victor ious conscrptionists cheered and cheered again. m- mediatey afterwards Henderson handed in his reSigna
 on to Asquth and the lines of battle were drawn Bit ter attacks were made by some of the conservatives be- cause Ireland excluded but Asquith answered by de- caring that Ireland would stand for the humiliation of being forced to fight for empire which had failed to do it's duty towards 1t in the past He reminded that Ireland was aiding to extent voluntary and that no more could be expected It expected that meetings Will be called by the representatives of labor at and that the whole matter will be brought to crisis before more than day or two have elapsed All the labor members, almost without exception voted against the conscrpton bill but the vast majority of both the great national parties joined in passing it.

U. s. AMBASSADOR
 IS SHOOTING GAME

BERLIN, Dec. 30.-(SpeciaD-"If meat gets scarce this winter" joking ly remarked Ambassador Gerard, "l guess I'll have to supply the Ameri- can colony with game" And that's how the Berlin Americans first heard about Gerard's latest role-that of hunter.
 During the last month the Ambas- sador has bagged a fine lot of game, including deer, ducks, pheasants, rab- bits and other animals on his game preserve near. Berlin. The Ambas- sador is considered an expert shot. Recently he bagged duck at 200 yards with his army rife. The last two roebucks he killed were sho, through the head. Many table in the American colony these days is weighted down with 5 or 100 pound roe-buck steak, which is considered the finest meat in Germany.
 When the Ambassador first learned that it would be impossible for him to take vacation because of the un- certain international situation, he rented the lodge. Every day he leaves the embassy about p. m., rides to the lodge in his automobile, tramps about the fields and woods until about 10 D. m., when he returns to the city. Sometimes he takes Dr. Ohnesorge, assistant naval attache at the em- bassy, with him.

Prof. A. E. Swanson Declares
There Is Little Uniformity
in Business College Courses

A survey of the courses now being Of
fered in thirty-four universities and
colleges under the head of business or
ganization. management or admins
tration indicated that there is little
uniformity in the subject matter taught
in these courses, Prof A. z. Swanson
of Northwestern University, Evanston.
Ill. told delegates to the educational
section of the Pan-American Congress
today.
This great diversity in the subject
material, to my mind, is not a dis
couraging fact" he added. 'as it is to
be explained principally by the new
ness of the subject. The teaching of
business organization and administra-
tion in our colleges and universities
dates back in very few instances as far
as 1900. and most of the courses have
been taken up within the last five
years"
Prof. Swanson said that, in his opin-
ion, in the study of operative organiza-
tion and administration course in funda-
mentals should precede and serve as an
introduction to the applied courses.
Following this elementary study" he
continued. strictly applied courses should
he given in production and distribution in
which a presentation can be made of spe-
cific problems of organization and admin
istration in the light Of the fundamentals. :"
