The Chinese pov ernment has placed severe restrictions on telegraph lines, evidently for the purpi.-c of preventing communication between the rebel.

Hunan, Kianc-si, ze-chuen, K el-Chow and Yunan. tin tins account Hankow, where the revolution is at its height, is cut off. l'n:il lately the Revolutionist, hav ing free use of the wires, received and disseminated information concerning the vrocress of their plans In all quarters. Ti e government refuses to reveal the lui.n'ur or t lie destination of the troops who are being sent southward. Begin ning tomorrow, only a single first-class train will be run daily between Tekln and Tlcntstng. about 70 miles to the southeast of the capital. This Is due to ai heavy movement of troupa and for the purpose of preventing any great number of rebels from coming Into !ktn. r.issenger and freight traf fic lis been entirely suspended be tween i-i ki.i and lil&nkow. Sao far. the government has refused to permit correspondents to accompany the army. Both sidesi are desirous of favoring foreigners, ahd It is believed that the government will reconsider this refusal If the. Imperialists meet with initial success. The last dispatch received froimllan kow said that the Revolutionaries had organized a Fled Cross Society and had Invited the co-operation of the American Kplscopal mission. This In vitation was accepted provisionally. GOVEKX.MEXT GETS ULTIMATUM Yuan Shi Kui Won't Ilo Viceroy t'n less Kefortns Are Grunted. I.O.VDO.V. Oct. 13. A Shanghai dis patch to a I.ondon news agency says that Yuan Shi Kal. who was recalled by the grovernment and appointed a viceroy of Hu-Feh and Huna provinces, has declined to accept the appointment unless it is accompanied by Imperial guarantee of Immediately effective re forms and the enforcement of constitu tional measures, such as are demanded by the leaders of the present agitation. The Insurgents disclaim the capture of revolutionaries. They have styled themselves the Constitutional party, contending that the constitution guar anteed by the late Emperor has been violated under the existing regime. The Insurgents, says the dispatch, were well organized and leaders have their forces thoroughly In hand. All looting and lawlessness is mercilessly repressed. The shyness of coin report ed from Hankow Is due to the rich resi dents having handed over their wealth to the Insurgents, who have also com mandeered all the specie In the banks, for which they have given receipts. Another dlf patch received here from Hankow, purporting to bar the date of Sunday. 11 A. M., says: "Perfect order Is still being- main tained here, and foreign concessions respected by the rebels, who occupy the city." - FLOOOMELP REBELLION PESTILENCE ADDS TO MISERY INY.NGTSE VALLEY. Mutilated Corpse In Uniform Seen in Illver Tell of Kate or Many , Imperial Soldiers. VICTORIA. Oct. 15. News was brouzht by the Kmpress of Japan that thousands were dying of starvation In Kianusu. along the Yangtse. following the floods, and the situation was expected- to result In a great augmenta tion of the rebellious outbreak which began in Szechuen and has since spread to other provinces. Refugees paint a black picture of dire distress. Put briefly, the whole of the coun try Is under water, the Yangtse has risen tosuch an extent that It is now bounded only by the ranges of hills which rise some distance from the hanks, corpses are floating everywhere, and famine-stricken refugees are dy ing dally from disease. The river in places Is 35 miles broad and floating bodies are seen In large numbers, while starving dog.- were seen feeding upon them. An officer of one of the river gutehoats tells of see ing several mutilated corpses In uni form. Indicating the fate of some Im perial soldiers at the hands sof the starving peasantry. Between 50.000 and 70.000 refugees, probably from Anhul, are clustered at Nanking in the hope of being able to get. food and shelter, but their condi tion ts appalling. Yet It Is not through hunger that they are being carried off, but through the ravages of disease. Cholera Is raging among them, and typhus Is .said to be equally bad. be side other forms of pestilence. The death rate' Is reported to be between 200 an 300 a day. Food has been sent to them, but under the awful conditions now pre vailing there it Is next to impossible for medical science to do anything. It is difficult to see how the situation can be alleviated at the present Juncture, and what will happen later Is almost too horrible to Imagine. With corpses laden with disease germs spread broad cast everywhere the situation as soon as the waters subside will present a hopeless complexion, such as has not been known for decades.

' SWISS FARMERS MAJORITY Remit of AdTertlslnj Campaign of Oregon In Newspapers Shown - in Numbers of Colonists Here and on Way. In the SO.day period of reduced rail road fares -from Eastern cities to the Northwest that closed yesterday. th number of hemeseekers coming from the rural dli tricta of Europe" ha? been a notable feature.,. , . , Railroad officials and civil authori ties engaged in the development of the elate have been surprised at this fea ture of the c-olonlst movement, but see n it one of the mtst hopeful signs for the rapid settlement of unoccupied lands. While the movement from the East ern states has continued steadily and in a volume that lias been encouraging to those communities seeking future land owners and farmers, the influx of those from Kurope k an added Joy that thev did not take into early considera tion. Probably the most pleasing feature of the Immigrant movement has Us source In the class of Europeans com tmr to Oregon- Nearly utie-half .those lominir from KurnDe are 'natives of Switzerland. A large number are Swedes and Xorwegians. Some are Hermans and a few come from tne countries of Southern Europe. It is the Swiss immigration, however. that i most noticeable. Nearly every day eees the arrival of one or more families from the Alpkte regions. Many that came in the last few days had gained some knowledge of Oregon through correspondence with friends already here, and all were destined to the farms. Few. if any. Swiss imml grants have expressed an intention of locating in Portland., Svtlas Purchase Small Tracts. This is another phase of the situation particularly pleasing to the authorities. In all their recent efforts to attract colonists to the state they have sought to discourage them from remaining in the cities. They point out that if the lund is settled, cultivated and made productive, the cities will grow a natural consequence. Some of the Swiss farmers have pur chased garden tracts In the immediate vicinity of Portland. -Others have gone down along the coast, where they ex pect to engage in dairying. Quite t few single men are among the number. They are seeking employment on the farms and expect eventually to own property in the state. Yesterday seven Swiss families ar rived. One had nine children. All the others had children., the number rang Ing from one to five for each family. They were of all izes and ages. They seemed to be fairly well-to-do and had definite arrangements for locating on small farms east of Portland. They came from the neighboring cpmmunl ties of Innerhoff and Interlochen. As a rule the Swiss immigrant has enough money to give him a comfort able start, as by nature he is thrifty, energetic and honest. Railroad offi cials and officers of commercial bodies say the Swiss are among the most de sirable class if Immigrants. In the last year the advertising cam paigns for the exploitation of Oregon have been carried by the railroads Into European cities and to the rural dis tricts. The steady Influx of people from across the Atlantic is evidence that this method of publicity has had results. Many Thousand to Settle. Estimates of the aggregate number of colonists that will come to the state as a result of the low fares that have been offered by the railroads in the 30- day period Just closed Indicate that the movement this Fall has been nearly as heavy as that last Spring, when fully 35.000 new citizens came to the North west. Of that number approximately 25,000 became permanent residents. Railroad Immigration agents say that Oregon is receiving more colonists than any other portion of the West to which they sell low-fare tickets. The im mense areas of unsettled land waiting for development are attracting thou sands. It is these sections that the railroads, as well as the people of the state, art eager to have taken up and developed. Reports from the Eastern gateways yesterday brought the Intelligence that the rush of Oregon-bound travelers at the close of the period was every bit as great as that of six months ago. Trains on the Northern Pacific. Great North ern, Milwaukee. Canadian Pacific, Union Pacific and other lines that lead into Oregon ara running In two sections to accommodate the crowds. Reduced- rate tickets were old up to midnight. Purchasers are allowed a reasonable time to reach their destination. They will continue to pour Into the state until the end of the week. QUAKE KILLS IN SICILY Buildings Collapse and Church Is Demolished; Eighty Injured. CATANIA. Oct. 15. An earthquake cf brief duration occurred in Sicily to day.

The greatest growth,, however,' is and. has, for the past, three years, been Rose City'Park way in fact, 50 per cent of . all residences built in the last two'years has been in the Rose City Park district. Isn't it reasonable to figure- that the greatest growth will still continue in this same direction? . It can't help it. . It's the ONE natural avenue in which to' expand. Then stop for a moment and realize that Parkrose lies just beyond Rose City Park in the direct path of this growth. , Realize that the Rose City Park carline will be extended to the center of the tract immediately. It all means that Parkrose will witness the greatest upbuilding and development that have ever been seen in this city. ; , . - But that's not all.

Programme for Dissolution Will Be Submitted to Federal Court Today Voting Power to Be Controlled Rigidly. NEW YORK, Oct. 13. The plan for the dissolution of the American Tobacco Company, in compliance with the de cision of the Supreme Court of the Vnited States, decreeing It an illegal ,..Kin.tinn. win be submitted to the United States Circuit Court of the Southern District of New York for 'ap proval tomorrow. The official plan provides for division of the American-Tobacco Company into four companies, no one of which. It is satd. will have a controlling Influence. The four companies are the present American Tobacco Company, which will continue In Its corporate existence; the Liggett & Meyers Tobacco Company, which js to be reorganizeo r.nr'.ilard Company, also to ized. and the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, an existent corporation. Dis integration is to be brought about by soiling $115,000,000 of the property of the American Tobacco Company, con sisting of factories, brands, business and capital stock of tobacco manufac turing companies now owned and con trolled by it to the Liggett & Meyers Tobacco Company and the C. P. Loril lard Company for cash and aecurities of the two vendee companies, and by distributing to common stockholders of the American Tobacco Company two thirds of the stock of the R. J. EUynolds Tobacco Company, now owned by the American Tobacco Company. Tht plan also provides for distribu tion in the form of dividend of the se curities of the various subsidiary com panies controlled by the American To bacco Company to .the American To bacco Company's common stockholders, and the division of some of these sub sidiary companies, which were held to be Illegal combinations,' into companies holding no interest in each other. It provides further for radical changes in the voting power of the stock, so that the defendants who for merly controlled the American Tobacco Company will surrender this control. The principal financial feature of the plan is an assessment on the $40,210, 000 common stock of the American To bacco Company, amounting to $31,351, 925. or about 91 per cent, which will be -jsed toward the proposed retire ment and cancellation of the company's existing bonds. For this assessment, however, the common stockholders will receive common stock of the Liggett & Meyers and P. I.orillard companies.
