Pensacola Journal.

Tallahassee, Fla, Dec. IF. N.
Andrews, former treasurer of Brad
ford County, who was sent to Raj
ford to serve a two year sentence at
hard labor, because his accounts
We're found to be short, was pardoned
by the board, after it was shown
that he had served all but five
months of his time, that his young
wife was teaching school at Starke
to support the two little children,
and long petition together with
letters from many prominent peo-
pie in Bradford County read to the
pardon board.
Representative A. S. Crews, of
Bradford County presented the case
and Judge J. T. Wills, who tried the
case, asked that clemency be extend
ed. At the conclusion of Judge
Wills remarks, Governor Cats said
that if the board would join him. hs
would vote to pardon Andrews at
once This was done.
Roland Alberry, who killed his
wife at Key West and was serving
a life sentence, his plea of the un-
written law failing to acquit him,
was paroled at request of and To
Judge Arthur Gomez, who will care
for Alberry in future. Alberry had
developed tuberculosis at Raiford.

Tallahassee, Fla, Dec. Cover
nor Cats leaves tonight for Camp
Wheeler, Macon. Ga, to look. after
the interests of ''his boys" from
Florida, and after he has Investigate
ed and determined what is neces-
sary for improved sanitary condi-
tions at the camp, he will proceed to
Washington to bring the needs of
the cantonment directly to the notice
of the officials and have issued the
necessary orders for improvements.
The governor says there are so
many Florida boys encamped at
Camp Wheeler he feels fatherlv in

power to stay the epidemic of colds,
pneumonia and black measles, or get
the boys transferred to the delight

that such station has the endorse
ment of some of the high officials of

STRICKEN HALIFAX Is
SWEPT BY BLIZZARD
OF MOST SEVERE TYPE
Bv Associated Press.

Halifax, n. s., Dec. 7.-Strfcken
Halifax was swept tonight by rag
ing blizzard that forced rescue work
ers to suspend operations. 1t Is be-
lieved certain all the injured under
ruins of shattered buildings have per-
ished from cold and hunger. The
plight of survivors is little short of
desperate. Windows and doors of
virtually every house We're shattered
by the explosion, and attempts to heat
buildings are hopeless. The suffer-
ings of those who escaped injury
have been increased by every avail
able blanket being requisitioned for
injured in hospitals. Serious fears
that the cold shock and exposure will
result in an outbreak Of pneumonia.
Added to this, are fears the storm will
interrupt traffic and cause a food
shortage. No concerned effort is yet
made to compile a list OF dead but
there is no reason to change the es-
innate Of two thousand dead. and
three thousand injured.

upon their occupants, shrieks and
awful din and in all parts of the city
men, women and children ran into the
streets, many tnsufficiently clad. Then
fire broke out in a hundred places.
Orders were at first given that
everybody should flee to the south
and in short time harrington street
resembled a road of Belgium when the
Inhabitants fled before the Germans.
Every variety of vehicle was pressed
into service for the sick and infirn.
Men, women and children, some
hurried along the pavements and
overflowed the streets. Stores were
deserted. houses forsaken and the en-
trance to Point Pleasant Park was
soon black with human beings, some
massed in groups, some running fran
tically back and forth.
When flying automobiles brought
the good word that the danger was
under control, the crowds returned to
find their home a mass of wreckage
or in ashes, and relatives dead or
wounded.
The report that the military hospital
at Rock Head, close to the narrows
had been destroyed and all the pa
tients killed, has proved untrue.
Scratches and cuts from flying glass
were the worst injuries suffered by
the patients, with two exceptions,
although the building was virtually
wrecked.

HOUSE DEBATE IS OPENED BY
CHAIRMAN FOREIGN AFFAIRS

Washington, Dec. Debate IN
the house on the resolution to de-
clare war on Austria was opened by
Chairman Flood of the foreign af-
fairs committee. He asked the house
to pass the resolution unanimously.
The declaration, he said, was essen
tial to the welfare of the allies, and
further that Austria in an unre-
stricted and ruthless submarine war
fare had sunk American ships and
murdered American citizens.
"This is war by Austria upon
this country" said Mr.. Flood. "The
assault upon these ships and the
murder of these American citizens
was as much an act of war against
this country as if Austria had land
ed an army upon our shores and
marched it to this city, burning our
homes, and numbering our citizens
as it came. Our flag has been in
vaded, the lives of our citizens
taken and to submit would bring ir-
reparable injury, loss and suffering
to our people.
eve should accept the gauge Of
battle from Austria, just as we did
from GeHnany," he declared, and
dwe1t upon the moral effect particu-
larly on Italy, saying it would
strengthen the front and the whole
allied cause.
Let us pass the resolution speedi-
ly," he declared, blinking together
for overwhelming defeat the two
medieval governments which plung-
ed the world into war and still stands
as the worst obstacle to just peace
among the nations"
