EVERYTHING WITHIN A

Volcano Belches Forth Fire and

Communication Are Down.

by Associated Press
San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua,
June S.--San Salvador, the capital
OF the republic Of Salvador, with
a population of more than 6O.O00.
has been totally destroyed, &C.
cording to a dispatch from San
Miguel, Salvador. No details as
to the manner in which the CITY
was destroyed have been re-
ceived, but IL undoubtedly was
the result Of an earthquake or vol.
canic eruption.
A dispatch from Tegucigalpa,
Honduras, says that in addition to
the wiping out of San Salvador
the towns of Quexaltipeque, Ne
japa, Suohichoto, Paisnal, Armen-
los and Mejicanos also were de-
stroyed. Mejicanos was a suburb
of San Salvador.
At 8 clock this morning there
was still no communication be-
tween San Salvador and Teguci-
galpa.
At 7 clock last night the tele.
graph operator at .Tegucigalpa,
Honduras, reported that the oper-
ator at San Salvador had in
formed him that earthquakes had
been felt there. The shocks were
also felt at Tegucigalpa, where
the operator at 7:45 p. m. lost com.
munication with San Salvador on
all wires.
From Sensuntenpeque, in north
central Salvador, flames were seen
arising, apparently from a vol
cano in the neighborhood of San
Salvador.
An operator who reached the
edge of the destroyed zone report
ed at 9:20 o'clock this morning
that San Salvador was in ruins
and that everything within ra-
dius Of 80 miles had been de-
stroyed by the earthquake.
The town of Santa Teola has
been destroyed, according TO this
report. Residents of San Saliva
dor are camping in the streets and
parks. At the time the report was
sent it had been raining heavily
for five hours. The disaster is
supposed to have beeA caused by
an eruption of the volcano Of San
Salvador, at the foot Of which the
city is situated.
San Salvador ia about three
miles southeast OF the volcano of
San Salvador and is the seat of
the government OF the smallest
but most densely populated of the
republics of Central America.
More than 200 persons have lost
their lives in San Salvador in
the last two years as the result Of
earthquakes
The city, which WAS founded
about 1925, is located about l20
miles southeast of the town OF
Guatemala and is on a small
stream which flows into the Pacific
ocean The city is connected by
rail with Acajutla and La Lib
ertad and contains a large univer
sity, the national palace, the ma
tional library and Astronomical
observatory and botanical gar
den. The population Of the cap
ital is 81, 900

For the past several weeks Father A. P. KashevarOft, working with the force in the office of Secretary Charles E. Davidson, has been trans Hating and transcribing the early vi. tai statistic records of the Russian Church into the English language and making the records of the office as

Slip Out From England on Steamers as Coal TrimmerS Is Plot
 Discovered.
GERMANS ALSO ESCAPE
Prisoners in Disguise Make Getaway From British Isles
 in Safety.

NEW YORK, Jan. 5.-That many Germans who had been intcrncd as prisoners in England, as well as a number of Englishmen dcsirous oi escaping military service, have been smuggled into this country as coal trimmers on board various liners, was intimated here today. The case of William Farrell. also known as Kernahan, for whom a writ of ha, beas corpus was sworn out in the Federal court, was said to have led to the disclosures.
 Farrell, a coal trimmer on beard the British steamship Adriatic has been placed in irons, it was charged, because he declared that if he were permitted to go ashore he would not return to the vessel. The writ Of habeas corpus sworn out in his be- half directed Captain Rlsome, of the Adriatic, Co produce Farrell be. fore the Court. This, however, the captain refused to do, stating that the mere fact of bringing Farrel ashore would liberate him. Judge HOugh, who heard the argument, dis missed the writ.
 TestimOy was introduced to the effect that Farrel had lived in Lon lon for several years. One witness declared that at no time was Far ,ell "a German soldier"

ana had a greater future than the original location Of The Advocate plant, and it was moved there. Bee gle. however, had determined on more exciting things than a long, GuH existence on an obscure country paper. He accepted the offer of Q position in the customs service and was station at various towns in the North during the fifteen years fol- lowing his appointment in 1896.
 Five years ago Beegle organized the BeegIe Packing Company and has been associated with the can nery business since that time. He is enrOute to his home in the North after a business trip to California and is a guest at The Seattle.

Insanity WiII Be Plea of Man Who Killed Millionaire by
 Poison.
DEMANDS NEW HEARING
Convicted Dentist Tells BrOthe. of a Secret Cache of Fatal
 Drugs.

NEW YORK, Dec. (SpeciaD . Face to face with death, separated only by a thin wall from the electric chair in Sing Sing prison, where in short time he is scheduled to eX- plate the murder of his fathcr-in- law. John E. Peck, of Grand Rapids, Mich, Dr. Arthur W. Waite, the mysterious man from Egypt and New York dentist, is preparing a final fight for llfe-a fight that, if wGged successfully, will transmute the phy- sical death sentence into q sentence of living death behind the walls of the famous Mattewan insane asylum.
 This fight against death. 11th hour grasping at a straw, was begun today, when Frank Waite, brother of the condemned man, after q Christmas visit to the Sing Sing death row." announced that Dr. Waite had confessed the hiding place of phial of deadly poison brought by him from South Africa.
 Subtle Drug Revealed.
 With this subtle drug, Frank Waite says, his brother Arthur could have killed whole families without leaving a trace of his crime.
 By the use of this drug Dr. Waite could have murdered his father-in- law, his mother-in-law, his wife and the woman of the otber half of his double life, and himself lived to enjoy the fortune of his victims.
 It would not have been ncces- sary, Frank Waite says, for Arthur to have left his obvious fatal chain of evidence by purchasing poisons from dental supply concerns.
 Insanity Hearing Demanded.
 No sane man, with this deadly South African drug in his posses sion would have ensnared himself, says Frank Waite. And then he voices the obvious inference, Dr. Ar thur w. Waite is insane.
 The law says insane men must not be executed. If Waite is in- sane, or there is even slight evil dence to indicate that he is insane, a trial must be held to determine his condition of mind. And that trial will be demanded.
