Tokio, June 21, 9:25 p. m.—Reports ¢f a terrifying volcanic eruption at sea two days ago, south or Japan, has Leen brought into Yokohama by in- coming steamers. The disturbance is regarded here as a direct cause of an earthquake shock in central Japan vesterday, the strongest experienced in several years. The marine erupticn took place at June 19. 1Its location is given as about’ seventy miles southeast of Tatsizio, or Hachijo Island, which is 150 miles directly south of Yokohama. A pillar of fire and dense smoke ob- scured the sun and turned day into might. Huge rocks and quantities of | lava rained down into the sea, and the waters are described as becoming “red and boiling.” 'Che ' steamers which observed the disturbance were | struck by tidal waves, but they escaped injury. The earthquake which took place in Japan yesterday damaged a ' number of houses in Tokio.' but there were no casualties.

Government Has Lost $27,000,000, Says McAdoo. ‘Washington, June 21.—Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo in a statement given out Jast night shows how. vio- lations of the oleomargarine law have defrauded the federal government out | of at least $27,000,000 due in stamp and special taxes. The statement of the secretary is based on a prelim- inary report of a sweeping investiga- tion conducted by Cominissioner of Internal Revenue Osbourne. 1902, immediately after the | enact- ment of ‘the law, have been uncovered by the commissioner. He began his inquiry seme months ago, and from time to time news of prosecutions has reached the public, but until last night wide scope of the investigation or of its extraordinary results. Unpaid taxes aggregating $851,000 have been recovered and 'deposited in the treas- { ury, “with the prospect of further very large collections.” Forty-two violators of the law have been cor: prison sentences have been given twenty-nine of these.

Navy Man, Just Re- turned, Gives His Impressions BRITISH NAVY INERFICIENT Henry Steadman, Guest of Dr. J. B. Poyer, Tells of Force of 50,000 Brit- ish Being Cut Down to ! ‘0,000 in Operations in he Straits. Henry Steadman who received his States Navy last week when he re- turned on the U, S, S. North Carolina from the Dafrdanelles, is the guest of | Dr. John B. Poyer and in discussing the war situation today he told a graphic story of the dreadful carnage resulting from the terrific naval en- gagements there./ He stated that of all the English forces in the Darden- elles, the Australians have proved themselves to be the most. efficlent. Mr, Steadman also remarked on the ‘utter unprepardeness .of England when the war broke out ana stated: that her supposedly wonderful navy has fallen down badly. He also made the statement which he says the Eng- lish have not allowed to be published, that of 50,000 men garrisoned at Alexandria, Egypt. who were sent in- to the Dardenelles only 10,000 of them have returned alive so great has been the slaughter during the oper-{ first. class Mr., Steadman was a while cruising about the Mediteran- ian he was able to observe much that was going on. Although he did not | get on the firing line 1n the Dardan- elles he saw the boats and transports going into -and returning from ‘the battles and is therefore able to judge of their magnitude. The former navy man said the | North ‘Carolina steamed into Alexar- dfia on May 27 and was lodged . on a'sand bar, remgining there until May 29 while, seven -tug. boats, dredges. and other vessels tried to release her. On the return trip the North Carolina { stopped at all of the Meditterranean ports and at Gibraltar coaled for the | final trip across the Atlantic. Bring Wounded to Alexandria. At Alexandria Mr. Steadman said, of transports converted into hospita: ships tringing the dead and woundel into . the port where all of the prins cipal public buildings’ have been taken over by the English governd ment as temporary hospitals. Heo stated that of the 50,000 soldiers, sdilors and marinés who were station- ed at this port when the action in the Dardanelles began, but 10,000 = have survived the awful slaughter, 40,000 of them having been sidin. This fact has been carefully covered up by thn. English he said. U. s, Sailors Insulted. “A United States, 'sailor cannot walk the streets of Alexandria with- | out being insulted and getting into an argument or fight regarding this countrys attitude on the Lusitania matter,” said Mr. §teadman. He then explained that the English sol- diers 'and sailors are not the trouble makers, but it is the merchant ma- ‘rines that think the United States is lax. Mr. Steadman himself got into several warm arguments over the in- sults heaped gn this country, While 1n; \the Dardanellegy he saw \/Britisn, | dréadnought “Queen Blizabeth,” uu-nwing shells into the forts on tae shore and said that it was necessary for the gunners to train their guns so that the shells distance of taree or four miles, agd land on the forts beyond. Turks Blow up Trenches, The worst massacre of which Mr. Steadman knew while there occurred As soon as the land- ing parties reached the shore the Turkish forces in the trenches, com- manded by German officers, fled and the English then occupied them. But before the weapons of the invaders could be landed the trenches were the retreat of the Turks having been but a ruse. Mr. Steadman states that the Turks | in many cases maltreat their English | prisonersiand he has seen many eigh- teen year old Englishmen who have eéscaped ', who-have been fearfully abused. The English soldiers anda sailors ‘are not entirely ‘blameless, however, he states, as in many cases the British men have been known to annoy and abuse the Turkish women. The Hindu soldiers fighting for Eng- land in this region are suffering ter- ribly from typhus, stated Mr.. Stead- man, This is a disease brought on by the sting of ‘an insect and is generally fatal. Great care must be taken by all there not to become infected. But in every instance the Turks are fight- ing valiently under - their German leaders and are giving the allies a fierce combat, When the North Carolina stopped | at Java Mr, Steadman saw an Ameri- can girl rescued from the Turks who had tried to jrob her. She was taken to another port and left. At Beruit, where there is an American college, the United States saiiors had a short (Continued on Tenth Page.) | as a rule he worked steadily. | thought that he was brooding | pany. { flying the colors of Sweden. ENDS HIS LIFE AT HOME OF DAUGHTER Philip Chase, Bricklayer, Found Dead in Yard—Commits Suicide by Drinking Carbolic Acid. Philip Chase, until a -few months ago a resident of this city, committed suicide. sometime between Saturday night and Sunday morning By drink- ing the contents of an ounce vial of carbolic acid at the home of his i daughter, Mrs. Nelson, 'in Southing- ton. His lifeless forml was found lying in the yard by his son-in-law early Sunday morning. The family can give no reason for his rash act. Chase was a bricklayen' by trade and was a.drinking man but It 1s over troubles of which he kept the naturef { to himself and did not confide in his friends. He left the home of his daughter Saturday afternoon in apparent good spirits and came to this city. How long he spent here could not be de- termined but the bottle which con- tained the acid bore the label of a lc- cal drug store, The deceased leaves a daughter and a son, Frank Chase, whose present whereabouts is not known.

TO PROTEST MISUSE OF AMERICAN FLAG New Note to Great Britain Will Prob- ably Carry Representations Against Actions of English Steamers Washington, June 21.—New repre- sentations to Great Britain on mis- use of the American flag by English steamers probably will be made in the new note which fis being prepared to deal further with interruptions to neutral commerce: It was stated of- ficially today that individual plaints of such instances had come to the state department; they had been laid before the London foreign office, but that the next note would again deal with the subject generally. The state department was in receipt today of a despatch from Ambassador Gerard representing Germany's claim that the submarine U-29° was vam- med and sunk by a British steamer The message, it was said, containing no comment as to the possible effect on the possible effect on the negotiations | with Germany. The British admiralty has denied the Gérman allegation. Berlin takes the view that the inci. dent has a bearing in the negotiations with the United States over submarine warfare. American officials; while not admitting this, are. curioud to know how the German admiralty got its information inasmuch as every one on the U-29 was reported lost. Officials feel, however, that misuse of neutral flags complicates the issue with Germany and the new note will contain something on the subject. Sev- eral instances of the use of neutral flags other than that of the - United States have been brought to the at- tention of the state department. The ambassador has as yet been unable to give any indicatiors of the | probable date of the reply to the last American note. It is assumed from official reports, however, that it may be sent some time next week. i b WEATIIER. L A Hartford, June 21.—Pair tonight.

Speculation on Angeles. The representations for '~ Angeles brought considerable - speculation. in One version was that he was to con- fer with Mexicans who have taken no part in the revolutiohary activity, i but who recently have been planning to form a coalition with some of the forces now in the field to enable | them 'to get the ‘‘active -moral sup- port” . which President Wilson re- cently announced the United = States would soon give some group unless warring factions could 'agree among themselves. Another explanation was that - Angeles had ‘left Villa because of personal ‘differences with him, Although officials’ ‘are . watching | cidsely. changes .in Mexican policies they are taking no hand in the devel- opments.

Thousands Facing Starvation. Further reports of distressing con- ditions .among Mexico’s hungry civil population continue to reach Ameri- can Red Cross headquarters here. Latest advices said that at least twen- ty thousand peons were on the verge of starvation in the vicinity of Pachu¢a and that Mr. Shanklin, the American consul general at Vera Cruz, had arranged to send to Pachuca several car loads of grain which had been shipped to him by the Red Cross. A belated report from the Boston headquarters of an American mining company in Pachuca stated that there was only enough food to last four days, many of those facing starvation being employes. To Ship Foodstuffs. The Red Cross announced that it would immediately ship three car loads of corn, beans and flour to Pachuca, the cost of which is to be borne by the company.

Colorado, Guay- mas, Mex., June 21, via Radio to San Diego,. Cal., June 21.—Fighting was reported today along the Yaqui Riv- er north of the Americah settlement, indicating that Villa trops are now be- ginning active operations against the Yaqui Indians. No Yaqui attacks on foreigners have been reported recent- | ly. The Colorado arrived here last night to protect Americans if the Mex- ican . forces prove unable to stop depredations of the Indians. ‘Carranza trops are advancing from North Sinaloa against the forces of General Maytorena.

Connors of New York City. At the exercises of the academic class the oration was by Edwin A. Burtt of New Haven, the poem by Archibald MacLeish of Glencoe, Ills., and the class history by Charles A.' Merz, of Sandusky, Ohio. The principal address to the class at law school was by Francis Joseph Swayze, justice of the supreme court of New Jersey on the subject, “The Growing Law.” In the course of his address Judge Swayze pointed out the manifold changes in the written law and in the interpretations, attribut- ing this to the new force which has come to the front in the past forty vears and which he said might be- come predominant. In conclusion he | sald: “The courts must always be the tribunals which put legal principles to the final and practical test, for the law is not only a science but an art, and the dangers of academic discus- sion can be avoided by submitting the theories of the closet to the test of practical experiment.” Cambridge, Mass.,, June 21.—Phi Beta.
