BEARS DISTURB PEACE ON ISLAND OF YETOROP Correspondence of the Associated Press. TOKIO, August 15.—It is reported from Nemuro, Hokkaldo, that bears are increasing so rapidly in Yetorop, the largest island in the Kurile group, that the Inhabitants are seriously con- sidering appealing to the Japanese government for ald. It is variously estimated that there are now between 8,000 and 10,000 bears on the island. Hundreds of horses and cattle are | killed and eaten by the bears yearly, it is said, and unless something 1s done to exterminate the bruins it is feared stock-farming on the island will have to be discontinued. A bounty of 15 yen is at present given for each bear killed. e e Nothing exciting happens in somé villages except fires and mad dogs and church weddings.
