MINISTERS TO PROVE ALIBI Indianapolis Saloonkeepers Must .At- " tend Church on Sunday. Indianapolis, Jan. 28.—Local saloon- keepers who violate the closing laws will hereafter be compelled to keep their saloons closed until they can produce a letter from a minister cer- tifying that they have attended church on Sunday morning and remained throughout the services. Such was the ruling of Mayor Samuel L. Shank in two cases before him and, he an- nounced, he will deal with other vio- lators. Marion Cummins, charged with keeping his saloon open on Sunday, it is said, announced at the beginning of Mayor Shank’s campaign of law en- forcement that he would close his place and go to church on Sunday. The police declare he did not keep his word. The mayor suspended Cummins’ 1i- cense and told him'that it would not be restored unless he could appear with a letter from a minister on next Monday showing that he had attend- ed church and promised the minister to obey the closing law. M'GUMBER WANTS INQUIRY Asks Comparative Statement on Farm and Retail Prices. ‘Washington, Jan. 2 .—Explaining that he desired to obtain a compara- tive statement of food product prices on the farm and in the retail markets Senator McCumber of North Dakota presented a resolution directing the senate committee on -agriculture to make such an investigation. Mr. Mc- COPYARIGHT, ELINEDINGT WASH. D.G» PORTER JAMES M'CUMBER. Cumber declared the high prices asked the consumer for beef were out of all proportion to the price paid on the farm. The resolution was referred to the committee on agriculture. ‘At the instance of Senator Beveridge Mr. McCumber agreed that in commit- tee the resolution might be so amend- ed as to cover beef exports and show beef prides abroad. > EIGHT JAPS FROZEN TO.DEATH _Escape From Shipwreck to Perish of Exposure. -Victoria, B. C. Jan. 2 .—The news that eight Japanese out of forty who survived. the wreck of the schooner Koseuku Maru were frozen to death while eight others were left to a like fate in the Kamchatka wilds was brought by the steamer Aymeric.

SITUATION IS AFPALLING Italy, Spain, Germany and the Scan- | dinavian Countries Suffer Tremen- dous Sacrifice of Life and Property. Inundation of Rome Threatened by the Overflow of the River Tiber. London, Jan. 28.—Advices from Eu- ropean seaports show that fully 200 vessels, mostly. small fishing craft, have been lost in the storm of the last forty-eight hours and that there has been loss of life in the sinking of at least half of these boats. Italy, Spain, Germany and the Scan- dinavian countries report tremendous loss of property -and life, with a greatly increased death roll feared from the isolation of many towns by high water and snow blockades. The situation is the most appalling that Europe has known in many years. Belated vessels arriving are in a battered condition. Reports from Naples say the water front there has been flooded and the quays wrecked. At Rome the Tiber threatens to in- undate the city. The river has al- ready overflowed many miles of terri- tory and is causing huge damage. Great Damage at Venice. The report that a tidal wave swept Venice proved to be without founda- tion, but the city has suffered heavily from the storm, many builaings being destroyed. The interior of Spain is practically cut off from outside communication and the extent of damage there can- not be ascertained. Rescuing parties are searching for a dozen Alpine tourists who have not been heard from for two days. Snow blocks many of the Alpine passes and- makes it probable that many of the mountaineers and tourists have been cut off from escape. Railway traffic in Denmark is badly interrupted and a half ‘dozen trains are reported inaccessible from snow blockades. The passengers are with- out food and fuel. The snows in Scandinavia are the heaviest in sev- eral years and most of the smaller towns are isolated. ASQUITH FOR HOME RULE Agreement Between English Liberals and Irish Nationalists. London, Jan. 28.—Home rule for Ireland will be the overshadowing issue in the next English election, ac- cording to an agreement that is re- ported on the highest authority to have been reached between Premier Asquith and John Redmond, the Na- tionalist leader. According to this agreement the Liberals and Nationalists will work in complete union in the proposed reformation of the house of lords, in the budget fight and in support of a bill to effect sweeping election law reforms. After these measures hare been put through the home rule will be adopted. The election reform bill, if passed as now drafted, will be of immense advantage to the Liberals and is counted on to keep them in power. regardless of the storm of opposition that the home rule issue will arouse. This would insure the passage of the home rule bill at the subsequent par- liament: Politicians generally deem the com- pact between Asquith and Redmond the most important political agree- ment of recent years and most of them are agreed that it practically in- sures home rule for Ireland within a few years. MEDIATORS IN A DEADLOCK Two Arbitrators in Switchmen’s Case Cannot Agree on Third. ‘Washington, Jan. 28 —Information ] received here is that the arbitrators: selected in the Chicdgo switchmen’s controversy with the railroads, S. E. Herberling vice president of the Switchmen’s union, and C. R. Gray, vice president:of the St. Louis and San Francisco, are unable to agree upon a third arbitrator.. The selection of the third arbitrator, therefore, has been referred to Chairman Knapp and Dr. Neill, the mediators under the Erd- man act. It probably will be several days before they will announce their decision, as Dr. Neill is engaged on |] mediation proceedings in Cincinnati between the Big Four railway and the Baltimore and Ohio Southwestern and their telegraphers.
