GOVERNOR ALLEN
 URGES MEASURES 10 ALLAY UNREST
Kansas Official. Before LegiS. lature, Pleads for Indus-
 trial Tribunal

| Topeka, Kan, Jan. 5.---Legislation which he declared is imperatively needed to protect the public in the present period of social and indus trial unrest was outlined in his mes
 sage before the Kansas legislature
 this afternoon, by Governor Henry U. Allen. The governor appeared personally before the joint session of the house of the special ses-
 sion, which convened at o'clock. Pointing to the recent strike as a bitter lesson of the need of indus trial relations court, the governor said:
 To-day all over this land there are men who demand that such govern ment as Lincoln loved should be destroyed and who would rear in it's place a government by intimidation and violence. It is of the utmost importance that we should harkcn to the fact that the battle is not alone between employer and em- ployee. It is between government and those class-minded organiza, tions which seek to supplant it." The governor pointed out the ad- Vantages to be expected from the proposed new laws, as follows: To make strikes, lockouts, boy cotts, and blacklists unnecessary and impossible, by giving labor as well as capital an able and just tri- bunal in which to litigate all con- troversies.
 2--To insure to the people of this state, at all times, an adequate SUD- ply of those products which are ab- solutefy necessary to the sustaining Of the life of civilized peoples. 3-That by stabilizing production of these necessaries, we will also, to a great extent, stabilize the price to the producer as well as the con- sumer.
 4-That we will insure to labor
 steadier employment, at fairer wage, under better working condi- tions.
 -That we will prevent the colos-
 sal economic waste which always attends industrial disturbances.
 t-That we will make the law re-
 sHected and discourage and ulti- mately abolish intimidation and vio- fence as a means for the settlement o1 industrial disputes.
 Referring to the coal strike. the governor pointed out as an illustra- ton of "the baleful determination of the miners officials that no re lief should be granted the public during the quarrel" the case of a hospital at Pittsburg, "the principal hospital of that town, located in the very heart of the coal district" It was without fuel. Two union min CTS who attempted to operate strip pit for the sole purpose of sunnlv- ing the hospital, were warned to quit" Appeals to the union off cials that death would ensue to the helpless sick in the hospital, the governor said, did not alter the union officials order that "not a pound should be produced to relieve even poignant demand of that character" Coal was furnished the hospital by the state.

on reconvening after it's fortnight holiday recess.
 Without formality, both senate and house began disposition of bills on their calendars and within an hour or so both bodies resumed their normal appearance of scant attendance during speech making. Miscellaneous bills only were con- sidered and few of tho less impor- tant passed. The senate late in the day started debate on the water power development bill, considera- tion of which promises to continue into next week. The Sterling sedi- tion bill, which senate leaders had expected to take up today, went over until tomorrow.
 There were few developments and only perfunctory discussion of the peace treaty in the senate. Senator King, democrat, Utah, presented formally his set of compromise re- sorvations and many senators were engaged all day in private confer ences on the treaty situation, but nothing tangible resulted.
 Victor Berger, the Wisconsin so- cialist, elected after being refused a seat, did not arrive today, but to- morrow or immediately upon his presentation of reelection creden- tials house leaders planned to re- fuse to grant him seat. Represen- tatiye Mann of Illinois, former re- publican leader, surprised house members by announcing he would support Berger's claim;
 Many committees of both senate and house got into action today and prepared to grind out the endless procession of bills and resolutions which are expected to hold congress here for the next nine or ter ,,onthc

BATESVILLE IS
 SWEPT BY FLAMES
FIFTY RESIDENCES DESTROYED LOSS IS $250,000. ON ACCOUNT OF HIGH WIND FIRE COULD NOT BE CONTROLLED.

Batesville, April 21.-A disastrous fire swept te residence district of Batesville th.1 afternoon burning to the ground about 50 residences and leaving homeless more than 300 peo- pie, with loss estimated at about quarter of million dollars.
 The fire originated in the home of H. Carpenter, when an electrict fuse burned out. There were no grown peo- pie in the house at the time of the accident and the fire was under head way when the alarm was turned in and the fire department reached the scene. On account of high wind the fire could not be controlled and with out any power to prevent the resi- dence section of the upper part of the city was practically swept out of ex- istance. All business houses were closed and man-to-man aid was given, added to the work of the well equipped fire departments, but the high wind made it impossible to check the fire until the end of the reiden- ce section had been reached.
 Tn Arkansas College boys and girls dormitories were saved, while in the main section of the fire 30 homes be- longing to the wealthy residents of the city were destroyed. More than 30 smaller houses belonging to ne- groes, including g E;..aber of negro churches, were destroyed. There was no time to save the contents of the buildings, every man and available help was employed M the saving of homes and lives. There were no cas- ualties so far as reports are indicated and the loss of the money value may be increased when the full reports are ascertained.

CHINA'S GOVERNMENT
 EXPEC8ED TO MERGE

Shanghai, April 16.-Dominant ele- ments of the Northern and Southern Chinese governments will merge and organize united parliament, proba- bly, in this city in short time, said Wu Ting Fang, administrative lead CT and minister of foreign affairs of the southern government on arriving here today. A constitution and peace programme will be drafted at the meeting, he said, thus terminating the Canton government.
 SunYat Sen, first president of the Chinese republic, and leader of the onstitutionalists, and Tang Shao Vi, former premier of the Picking govern ment, are here and 90 of the 300 mem- bers of the Canton Parliament have arrived. Proxies held by the leader of the delegation give them the voting power of majority of Ie southern governments administrative council of seven, and they will carry out the projects which have been negotiated by SunYat Sen with Yuan Chi Jui, and other Picking chiefs.
 Wu Ting Fang favors the consorti- um in which Japan, the United States France and Great Britain would play a dominant role in the financing of Chinese undertakings, but opposes loans now pending.
