Red Cross work in China began ia
1904. during the Russo-Japanese war.
The Chinese Red Cross is planning a
reorganization this year on a scale
that will carry the message of mercy
to every part Of the vast empire.
South America. Central America
and Mexico have many efficient Red
Cross societies. In some OF the
smaller countries. the Red Cross or
carnations have had struggle to
keep going, and these are to receiN .
special attention from the congress
at Geneva
The Red Cross organiza tions of the
world generally are considered to be
in a good position to start their com
bined drive against universal distress
and disease.

Capable Society in Germany.

The German Red Cross, as is gener-
ally known. was one OF the most en-
cient parts of the German military
machine. With millions of members.
plenty Of money and a wonderful
equipment. the German society, be-
cause of it's absolute control by the
government in peace, as well as in
war. was regarded by the outside
world as being out of harmony with
the merciful spirit of the real Red
Cross. The fact that the German Red
Cross had refused to subscribe to
articles Of the Geneva treaty intended
to prevent abuse of the Red Cross
emblem. strengthened this feeling
All that has been said OF the
German Red Cross applies to the Red
Cross Society of the former Austro-
Hungarian empire. Most of the states
into which these two great monarchies
have been divided will undoubtedly have
delegates at Geneva

San Antonio. Texas, Sept 15.-Indi-
cations We're that the center of the
hurricane WAS north of Brownsville.
A report from that place through
army radio TO Fort Sam Houston said
telegraph and telephone lines TO the
interior Were cut off. Padre Island
and Brazos Island were reported un-
der water. Point Isabel is surrounded
by water and the United States coust
guard quarters are believed to have
been destroyed, although the men are
safe. Reports from the Galveston
island said 1000 bales of cotton were
afloat in the bay, nnd that salvagers
were being paid so for each bale re-
covered.
Dallas, Texas.-Driving furiously
into the Texas coast, principally in
the section southwest of Galveston,
the tropical hurricane that has skirted
the United States gulf coast for near
ly week, apparently has swept in
land near the Mexican border. Wire
communication was interrupted in
llOSI VI Illt ullttltu AREA anu lllt "a
tent of the storms damage could not
be learned accurately, but there were
no reports of fatalities.
Brownsville and Corpus Christi ap-
parently felt the brunt of the storm,
which has passed ON into Mexico,
where it dissipated in the Mexican
mountains.
Galveston, where considerable anx-
iety had been felt, apparently was
struck by the edge of the storm area
and again the city was saved from
any considerable damage by the pow
erful sea wall constructed after the
1900 disaster.
Water was reported to depth of
six feet in sections of Corpus Christi
and information received by the
weather bureau at San Antonio said
the water was three feet deep in the
lobby of Corpus Christi hotel.
Isolation of Brownsville was COM
plete, so far as wire communication
was concerned, the only information
coming from that city being contained
in brief wireless dispatch from Fort
Brown to southern department head
quarters at San Antonio reporting
seventy-five-mile wind at p. IN.
The storm struck Galveston and
caused the tidewater to flood the busi-
ness section and the north side of the
island to Il depth of three feet The
sea wall withstood the onslaught of
the pounding waves, however, and
there was no damage TO the causeway
connecting the city with the main
land
BY night most Of the water had re-
ceded from Galveston's streets, al
though an area of several blocks still
ran with water to the curb top. Mer-
chants declared their loss was not
great. Galveston marine circles had
no reports of shipping loss.

Poison Used in Woods
to Kill NOxious Pests

State Game Commission officials
who have been making Investigations
into charges that in the west branch
country poisons scattered in the
woods have been the cause of loss
of valuable game and dogs declare
that some of the reports are not we'll
founded and that in others it has
been clearly established that 1t is
the work of individuals anxious to
get rid of vermin and not of game
wardens. In some cases game ward
ems were charged with placing pois-
oned carcasSeS or corn.
Seth Il. Gordon, acting secretary
of the State Game Commission, said
to-day that he had run down sew
eral reports and found that private
persons had placed the poison to
get rid of noXious animals, while in
other cases 1t was clear that the pois-
ons were scattered to kill off dogs.
In some instances dogs have become
a nuisance to farmers and sheep
raisers. In other cases poison was
employed in an effort to thin out the
bears which have become so num-
erous as to be troublesome and to
be killing sheep in the northern tier
counties. State game wardens have
been instructed as to use of poisons
and told to use the utmost care
where they are found necessary,

TO
MEET THIS WEEK
AT THECAPITAL
Leaders Arrange Session of
National Committee There
on Wednesday
By Associated Press

Washington, Dec. S.-The leading
figures of the Republican party will
be, in Washington most of this week
for the meeting of the National Re-
publican Committee which convenes
Wednesday. e
Although selection of a place and
date for the 1920 National conven-
ton is the only business formally be-
fore the committee, the gathering
of party leaders is expected to bring
out great deal of discussion of
candidates and policies with prelimi-
nary jockeying which may have an
important bearing on the campaign.
Several members of the commit
tee and many others prominent in
Republican circles in the various
states already have arrived.
st. Louis has broken the ice of
the fight for the convention by open
ing headquarters.
+ BY Wednesday at least four candi-
dates headquarters are expected to
be at work. The managers for Cen
tral Leonard Wood are to reach
