THE CS&jTR.': I NOTICE RELIEF WORK GOES FORWARD IN CHINA Twenty Million Chinese Are Suffering From Famine In Four Provinces. HAVE LAUNCHED LOAN 't ; , ! I Selling: of Children is Common One Boy Was Offered (or 2, With So Buyer Children Found Deserted iu Streets. Rjr Aasuclalrd lras, PEKIN. Oct. . Helief work for .. . . . I the 20.0uil.000 estimated sufferers from famine in the four Chined province wherein? crops fulled this year has been undertaken energeti cally by both Chinese and foreign organizations. One of the latter is nn American committee to raise and distribute famine funds which was organized on the initiative of the American Minister, Charles H. Crane, and is headed by H. C. Faxon, of the American Chamber of Commerce in l'ekin. H. C. Emery, a banker, recently of New York and Washing ton, was appointed treasurer of the American committee. The Itriiish aud French communities will appoint similar committees. The Chinese ministers of finance, agriculture, and interior have ap pointed a commission to dispense $1, 000,000 fund to be raised by means of a short term loan. From Shang hai comes news of another fimd of $l,80tf,0u0 undertaken by seven pro vinces at the instigation of Tang Shuo-yt. the chief southern peace deW-gate. Comprehensive reports submitted to the American relief committee In dicate that the early repors of dis tress havt not been exaggerated. Dr. F. F. Tucker, writing from Tenchow, Sliuniung, bays: "Today an old man with a keen memorv was describing conditions 4 2 years ago when a utemoRuble famine occurred and h is quite sure that conditions are worse, for then, he said, there was a wheat crop just before the drought, which crop we have not had except In very limited areas." Mrs. EdiiT, O. lailmon, missionary, says portions of Shantung and Chihli provinces are practically without any harvest. Even the trees had been stripped of their leaves for use as food. "From Tehchow to Limning (100 miles along the Grand Canal In Shantung not half the planted fields will give back the grain used t o plant them," she writes. "One well-to-do farmer has already used all the produce from his ten acres and has sold the wadded gar ments that bis family need for the winter. Another farmer near Lint- j sing has torn down some of his build- iug.-i In order to use the sorghum stalks of the thick roof for fuel." "The selling of children is com mon," continued Mrs. Tallmon. "A fine little lad a year old was offered for 'i and none wanted him. A boy of five, whose mother had died of cholera and whose father wan sick, was led by an old beggar woman. She had four boys of her own, but she said: 'I couldn't leave him; his father is trying to give him away and says if nobody will feed him he will have to throw him In the river.' Little, children are found deserted In the streets and some have been res cued from the river. Feople are try ing to make marriages fur their daughters, even very young girls." Another writer from the district southwest of Paotingfu, says: "As far CHICHESTER S PILLS v J UK DIAMOND IIRAMI. A i hl.hi-ltrBDimotid Kroti(lV iM IMH In II rd .il Oold tnt MUt l itTt J Tke no oUbrp.

The Argentine senate has undertaken to fight the hoarders and speculators in food. clothing, fuel and other necessities by placing the trade in such articles under the control of a government board with broad powers. A meas ure adopted by the senate would charge the proposed board with the duties of assuring an aucquute sup ply, facilitating distribution and pre venting hoarding and speculating against the common Interest of the nation. t.. kiii nrnvMoa f.ir the finnrihit-l ment of sectional boards throughout the country, empowered to buy and sell, provide warehousing facilities and means of distribution and to pro- ceed against persons storing supplies in order to causa men ast d price;, ir j prices are too high, the board may j recoiniiieend expropriation, which measure can then be taken by di cree , In cases of food hoarding or de struction for the purpose of Increas ing prices, the law provides flues and imprisonment up to $60,000 and two years, respectively.

The hobo, who was unidentified, was buried beneath the wrecked cars and was badly crushed. He was taken lo Gralitr Pass, where he is in a very precariottK condition.
