Damage Will Total Well Over a
Million Dollars.

Indianapolis.-A destructive tornado

million dollars at New Castle and sew
eral thousand dollars in Wayne
county.
The dead in Wayne county are the
two children of Harvey Gray. Ora

through the air, suffered a broken
back and probably will die.
The storm swept over New Castle
in a southeasterly direction, demolish.
ing virtually everything in path two
blocks wide and more than ten blocks
long. For several hours the city was
entirely cut off from communication.
The South Side school, the rolling
mills and a shovel plant were de-
stroyed.
While the storm also hit the better
residence district it was not damaged
as severely as that in the neighbood-
hood of the Maxwell automobile fac
tory.
Appeals for help were sent out by
Mayor Leb Watkins of New Castle
and Governor Goodrich was asked to
send troops to police the city.
Adjutant General Harry B. Smith OF
the Indiana national guard is at his
Office directing relief measures.
Two companies of militia were or
dered to New Castle.
Physicians, nurses, undertakers and
ambulances were ordered to New Cas-.

GENERAL CARRANzA
! CHOSEN PRESIDENT

Mexico City. - General Venustiano
Carranza has been elected president
of Mexico by what is believed to
have been the largest vote ever cast
in the republic.
Although the voters had the privi-
lege Of writing in or declaring any
name they desired General Carranza
received all but few scattering bal.
lots. The estimated vote cast runs
all the way from several hundred
thousand to a million.
This presidential election WAS pro-
vidsd for in articles Adopted by the
constitutional assembly which met at
0nsretaro. -
Many OF the old residents declare
Nat this was the first real election
sver held In the country.
Reports from various parts of the
ropUblic indicate that there was no

DECLARES ENGLAND
IS FACING FAMINE

London.-More drastic restrictions
in imports were predicted by Ed
ward Carson, first lord of the British
admiralty, in a speech at the Aldwych
club, in saying the peoples food is
really threatened.
The cabinet minister took sharp
fling at amateur strategists. "Disre-
gard those who are impatient and
ready to gamble" he said, referring to
suggestion as to use of England's
navy. 1--WE cannot afford to gamble
with the fleet. II we failed it would
mean the end of the British empire.
II am neither a pessimist nor a
coward, but we must face the facts
and not allow the public to be sudden
ly confronted with situation they
had not anticipated, because remedies
conceived in panic lead to revolution.
England will fight and endure, de-
spite German methods"
