LITTLE AMERICA, Antarctica, Sep
tember 26.-The uncertainties of Spring
weather are just as pronounced In the
Antarctic as anywhere else, and today
all work outdoors was stopped by a
blizzard. Last night it was ST below
zero, and today 1t is about Al below
and o strong wind blowing. The dogs
that are outside have crawled into their
boxes for shelter and nobody goes out
except when necessary to go to one Of
the other houses.
Men on house duty have an unpleas-
ant time on such days keeping the win
dows free from snow, so that light will
shine through. The windows are at the
bottom of deep holes in the drift over
the house, and from inside one has to
look upward at sharp angle to see the
sky. The dry, powdery snow drifts into
the holes and over the windows and
whoever gets out to clean them comes
In covered with snow and thoroughly
chilled.
One of the stovepipes in the admin
istration house chose this day of all
others to fall apart and SCOT and smoke
made the atmosphere thick for a time
until it was put together again and re-
fastened with wire.
Such incidents, however. offer the OPP
portunity for plenty of humorous COM
ment on the efforts Of those attempting
to put the pipe together again and get
ting well blackened in the process, so
they help to break the monotony Of
life indoors.

MASSACRE DETAILS
REVEAL SLAUGHTER.
,MosIem Men Separated From
Families Before Chinese
Take Their Lives.
BY the Associated Press.


HANKOW, China, September as
Additional details of the alleged Chinese
massacre Of 1000 Moslems in a remote
part of Kansu Province indicate the af-
fair took place at Taochow, an old city
in Southwest Kansu, on the Tau River.
According to information considered
authentic, after a period of Sino- Mos
lem conflict in South Kansu, which was
part Of general Mohammedan rebel
lion in Kansu going on during the last
two years in the southwest of the prov
ince, Chinese authorities, under the Or
der of provincial authorities at Lam
chow, asked Moslems to convene at
Taochow for a conferences and to re-
ceive roasted barley.
Sexes Separated, Males Butchered.
After the Moslems' arrival all of the
males between the ages Of IS and so
were separated from the women and
children, taken outside the city walls
and "butchered like sheep"
No word reached the women until the
next day, when pitiful scenes were en-
acted while women sought to identify
CI1elI QeHu. 1UcU ulUuIuIu CtIcS
echoed through the city.
The Moslems were concentrated in
TaochoW as q result Of intense famine
In Southwest Kansu, which resulted in
thousands of Mohammedans being re-
duced to desperation of starvation,
their suffering intensified by being
forced to live unsheltered as result Of
their warfare with the Chinese.
MosIems Sought Food.
As a result Of these conditions 1t was
considered that the MoslemS were will
ing to meet the Chinese at Taochow in
the hopes of securing food. Reports in
dictate when the Moslems became aware
the Chinese authorities intended TO kill
them they requested no mercy.
Hochow, 100 miles northwest OF Tao
chow, is reported besieged and Chinese
of the Taochow neighborhood are re-
ported panic-stricken as a result Of the
massacre, fearing Hochow Moslems will
ravage Taochow countryside and wreak
vengeance. The locality concerned is
one of the most isolated in all Asia,
rendering acquisition Of information
most difficult.
