Mexico City, Jan. "a new VOL
cano eruption and new earthquake
on Thursday caught the helpless peo-
pie of Vera Cruz in a new situation
of the terror into which the city was
plunged Saturday.
Added to the earthquake casualties
of Saturday, today's casualties are
estimated at over 1000.
Twelve towns and villages are re-
ported completely destroyed. A small
mountain range, known as Cerro de
San Miguel, near Cordoba, Vera
Cruz, was the scene of the catas-
trophe Thursday. One hill was split
in two parts, dispatches said today,
throwing great stream of lava and
sulphurous gases into the air.
A stream of lava 600 feet wide is
flowing from the fissure today, dis
patches said, and flowing out over
plains below the mountains.
Registration Of earthquakes con-
tinues with sudden violence. The up
heaval came without warning, CATCH
ing farmers working in their fields at
the base Of the hills. Many were
killed and their herds were caught
in the rivers of flaming lava.
The dispatches describe the situa-
ton as desperate.

DEMOCRATS FACING
WILSON AND BRYAN
ON TREATY QUESTION
Bryan's Appeal Didn't Split
the Party at jackson
Day Banquet
BY Hugh Baillie

Omitted Press Correspondent
Washington. Jan. 9.-The demo-
cratic party today was faced with the
alternative OF following President
Wilson's leadership and making the
Der election, or following W. III.
Bryan's leadership and securing
quick ratification on the best CON-
promise terms possible. -
In the opinion Of party leaders,
1t did not seem likely today that
Bryan's appeal to the Jackson Day
banquetters, last night and early to-
day, would have the effect of split
ting the party Of weakening Wilson's
control.
Bryan's last speech ended at 2:30
o'clock this morning.
Wilson and Bryan are directly op-
posed in the situation. According to
widespread belief here, the treaty
will 60 into the 1920 campaign as the
paramount issue in spite Of Bryan's
arguments.
From high administration quarters
today came the suggestion that it
might be possible to hold referen-
dunn on the treaty before next elec-
ton. Such referendum would be
purely advisory to the senate and not
mandatory.
Senator Lodge, republican leader
in the senate, declared he was will
ing for the treaty to go into the next
presidential campaign and stated the
presidents attitude made a comprom-
ise impossible.

RADICAL ALIENS TO
PROCEED TO RUSSIA

washington, Jan. 9.-The soviet
ark Buford, with it's cargo OF 249
radical aliens, is about to enter Kiel
canal, according to official dispatches
received here.
While still refusing to disclose the
destination of the ship, officials said
a very good guess might be ventured
since passage through the canal has
become known"
Riga Believed Destination.
1t was believed that the Buford
would go to Riga, port in Livonia,
to discharge its radicals for transpor-
tation across the county into soviet
Russia
So far as has been made known,
negotiations for the transportation of
the radicals across one of the Baltic
provinces adjacent to Russia have not
been completed and the government
will await the outcome OF the Bu-
ford voyage before deporting any
more Radicals to Russia.
Ship at Sea 18 Days.
The Buford. now known as Soviet
Ark No. l." left New York Dec. 21
carrying Emma Goldman, Alexander
Berkman and 247 deported "radi-
calls"
The last wireless message from the
ship gave its position on Jan. 6 as
near the Atlantic end of the English
channel
1t is known that prior to sailing
the Buford's captain obtained special
information as to the approaches to
the famous German waterway leading
from the North sea into the Baltic.
The wireless gave no information of
the ship other than its position,
which leads army officials here to
believe that all is we'll on board.
