K e y West, Fla., Oct. 12.— As a result
of the hurricane which struck the
southern coast o f Florida today, K ey
West tonight is a mass o f wreckage,
aud the damage to property is esti
mated at $ 2 , 000 , 000 .
M artial law was proclaimed, and the
K ey West guards took charge of the
city.
The United States government has
beeu asked to dispatch troops here
without delay.
Chaos reigned on every hand, aud
few people remained in their homes.
Hundreds

were
totally
wrecked, and others damaged.
W hile the hurricane is the worst that
K ey West has ever experienced, the
local weather observer said tonight
that the indications are that the entire
east coast o f Florida would suffer.
One hundred vessels were in the har
bor, but five remained at anchor, the
others having either gone to sea or
been washed upon the beach. Streots
along the waterfront are a mass of
wreckage.
Brick, as well as frame buildiuga
throughout the city suffered from the
hurricane, and many close escapes from
death have befen reported.
Several factories were partly de
stroyed, including the Havana-Ameri-
cau, Martinez, Nichols, Huy Lopez,
Manuel Lopez, Fleitas Toreya, Cortez
and W o lf cigar factories. The top of
the First National bank was blown off
and the postoffice is damaged.
It is known that many have suffered
serious injury, and unconfirmed reports

Coming from a source o f unquestioned
authority on the ailments of men, it is
presumed to be infallible, while the pro
fession generally endorse the ingredients
and prescribe them in many different
forms o f various diseases. The following
formula is highly efficient in quickly re
storing in nervous exhaustion, melancho

ness. heart palpitation, trembling limbs,
insomnia, thinness, cold extremities, tired
all-in feeling and general inability to do
those natural and rational acts upon which
depends a man’s success and happiness in
social and every-day life.
The instructions for mixing at home se
cretly so that no embarrassment may be
felt are as follows: First get three ounces
o f syrup sarsaparilla compound and one
ounce compound fluid balmwort; mix and
let stand two hours. Then add one ounce
compound essence cardio! and one ounce
tincture cadomene compound (not carda

tions are to take one teaspoonful after
each meal and one when retiring, until
bounding health and full strength are re
stored. Even a few weeks will witness
most wonderful results.

Havana, Oct. 12.— The most serious
tornado since tho big blow o f October
17, 1906, struck Cuba early today, de
vastating the western portion o f the
island. In Havana many minor build

five persons were killed and about 25
were injured.
The greatest damage done was in the
harbor, where fo rty or fifty lighters,
many launches and small tugs were
either sunk or blown ashore.

throughout the day fo r the safety of
the Ward liner Morro Castle, from N ew

Both o f these steamers, however, ar

Insulting Aggression o f Japan Is Olven
as Reason.
* Tokio. Oct. 12.— Copies o f circulars
issued in North China b j a body of
Chinese calling itself the Popular As
soeiation o f the Three Eastern P ro v
inces have been received in Japan after
having been spread broadcast among
Chinese o f the lower classes. The cir
culars contain inflammatory statements
against the Japanese. They bear upon
wliat is called the “ weakness o f poor
China” and the “ insulting aggression
o f Japan.”
Assertions are made that Japan has
devastated the arable lands o f North
China and has enslaved laborers along
the line o f the Antung Mukden railroad,
that Japanese officials have beaten the
men, insulted the women aud terrorized
the people.
The circulars point out that the weak
ness o f China in a m ilitary sense
makes it impossible for her to resent
this treatment, except by a boycott, and
call upon the people o f China generally
to refuse all dealings with the Japanese-
A ll students and persons who value
freedom arc called upon to propagate
the doctrines and join in adopting the
programme o f the association. Failing
in this, they are threatened with vio
lence and even death.
The document concludes with the re
quest that Chinese vehicles, vessels and
railroads refuse to carry Japanese
goods. An endless chain is sought on
the request that patriotic citizens into
whose hands the circulars may fall shall
have them reprinted and scattered
broadcast, until Japan is completely
shut out from all commercial communi
cation with China.
These circulars have created some
thing o f a sensation in Japan. Kffort
is being made to provent the spreading
o f their contents among Japanese o f the
ignorant class because the danger o f
arousing feelin g at this time is recog
nized.
Meanwhile there is reason to believe
that Japan has called, or will immedi
ately call the attention o f the Chineso
authorities to the boycott propaganda,
demanding that tho circulars be out
lawed as illegal documents, and that the
DopulaV Association o f the Three Fast-
era Provinces be brought under disci
pline.
Tho exact method by which China is
ablo to control her people in this way
is not known, but it is believed hero
that the government o f China can sup
press promptly any boycott movement.

N ew C hief o f Police Exposes Terrible
Condition in Chicago.
Chicago, 111., Oct. 12.— Appalling con
ditions brought to light during the trial
o f Inspector McQunn o f vice conditions
on tho W est Side, the immediate fo r
mation of Jewish crusnders to drive
their people out o f the pnndering busi
ness, the organization o f reformers,
state, nationnl and international, to
check, i f possible, tho infamous “ white
sla ve” traffic, all expose the shameful
fact that two men who have grown
enormously rich in criminal business
still hold important municipal positions
here and continue to have a prominent
voico in making the city laws.
The drastic order issued last night by
Chief o f Police Steward to all mem
bers o f the department to stamp out
vice, exposes frightfu l conditions in the
first, ward, tho very heart o f tho city,
where two politicians who hold office
in the city council are collecting an
nually more than $117,000, every penny
of which is spotted with blood and
crime. These two men and their army
o f “ specialists” have tho groat red
light district on the South Side abso
lutely under control.
From the dives, tho shady hotels, the
saloons and the gamblers o f tho South
Side territory, extending to and em
bracing the Tw enty second street “ red
lig h t” levee, two powerful business
men o f tho district nre pocketing a
golden stream o f graft.
For years the gigantic system of
corruption has obtained. I t puts the
West Side ring o f tribute collectors
that was routed by S ta te’s Attorney
Wayman, through tho conviction of
Police Inspector McGann, to shame. An
army o f lieutenants has been mar
shaled together to see to it that no
blood stained penny even escapes the
coffers o f tho master-soldiers o f the
night. They are constantly on guard.
N o breaks o f faith ever sever the
masters from the victims. There are
novor any knife-in-the-back tactics
that result in scandals.
