Hurricane Which Roared Its
Way Over North Carolina
Coast Imperils 500 Souls on
Little Island Near Hatteras
(By Associated Press.)
RALEIGH, N. C., Sept. 8.—No lives
were lost on Oracoke island in Wednes
day’s storm, according- to advices reach
ing- here from Hatteras this afternoon.
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
CHARLOTTE, N. C., Sept. 8.—A ter
rific hurricane that whipped its way
along the North Carolina coast Wed
nesday imperilled 500 lives on Ocra-
coke island, devastated every port from
Wilmington t 0 T~ -died Bay, and left
a death toll impossible to calculate
I and a trail of wreckage now estimated
at over $5,000,000 loss.
Never in its history. has North Caro
lina experienced such a storm. Wires
are down to nearly every portion of
the stricken country, th$ island of
Ocracoke is cut off from the world,
•only days can reveal in full the sicken
ing details of the disaster.
Swooping upon the southern end of
the state late Wednesday afternoon,
the storm screamed upward along the
coast, battering through coast town aft
er coast town, splintering buildings,
tearing away bridges and railway lines,
Hooding cities, driving inhabitants to
the cellars, smearing havoc and dea^i
'over every mile of the seaboard. Off
Cape Hatteras the storm is believed to
have taken a final fling by submerg
ing completely th e little** island Ocra
coke before moaning its last way sea
ward. *
Washington. Beaufort Morehead City
a..- Newbern and other smaller port
towns, suffered the most vicious dam
age. All of these towns are cift on
from communication with this city. In
Beaufort county alone, where Washing
ton is situated, the property loss is
over $3,000,000.
In Washington itself the damage is
at least $1,000,000. The tide rose ten
feet above previous records, flooding
the streets of the city waist high.
Wreckage floated on top of the veri
table sea, and water in basemnets stood
five feet deep and over.
For twenty-four hours wearied fire
men hbve been- steadily at work on
pumps, striving to clear the houses of
water. Trees were uprooted/and resi
dences washed away, lumber mills are
smashed to flinders and hundreds of
head of live stock are drowned.
The loss to two railway lines, the
Norfolk Southern and the Atlantic
Coastline, is estimated at a million.
Thirty miles of railroad near Washing
ton were ruined and two magnificent
bridges dashed away.
Wireless sfations along the coast were
destroyed and all telegraphic communi
cation ended, It will be days before
wires to all the stricken points can be
put up, and it is feared their establish-,
ment will only lead to more accounts of
death and disaster.
Besides the Ocracoke rumor only one
other definite instance of loss of human
life is reported. At Farmville a tobacco
warehouse was knocked to* srnithereehs
and two men were killed. Seven others
were seriously injured. Walter Bynum
is given as the name of one of the vic
tims.
Ocracoke island is a narrow kev of
the group that shuts off Pamlico sound
. from the Atlantic. It lies twenty miles
* to the southeast of Bluff Point, N. C.
Its only village, Ocracoke, is near its
southern extremity, just off Ocracoke
inlet.
Eight hundred persons, principally the
families of fishermen, compose Ocracoke
village. All buildings are erected on
stilts above the water, and communi
cation from.house to house is conducted
bv means of boats. High tides have
frequently threatened the village, which
is reputed to be the most hazardously
located on the Atlantic coast.

Chicago Police Uncover Den
of Celestial Opium Smug
glers and Slave Traffickers
and Find "Black Book"
Which May Lead to Whole
sale Arrests of Confederates
of Yellow Men
(By Associated Press.)
CHICAGO, Sept. 8.—The police*
of a dozen cities were asked tonight
to investigate the records of residents
living at addresses recorded in the
Chinese “black book” found today by
the police while searching for a trail
of the murderer of Charles Sing, a Chi
nese merchant here.
The apparent in/portance of the
black book and its list of addresses
with its marginal notes in Chinese
characters caused the police tempo
rarily to lose sight of its search for
the assailant of Sing.
Chinese interpreters declared that the
bock listed agencies for conducting
sales of opium and that the book ap
parently had been the property of a
Chinese official high in some smug
gling ring.
The book als^> contained records of
Chinese smuggled into the United
States, and the police believe the net
work of cities comprises a ’tunnel” for
hiding smuggled Chinese until they
can he assimilated by tlie Chinatowns
of the big cities. The finding of more
than twenty letters signed by white
girls caused the police to believe they
had uncovered a white slave ring. One
letter was signed by Emma Davis,
Joliet, Ill., a sister of Mrs. Alice Sing,
the white wife of the dead Chinese,
who is seriously ill at a hospital ^ere.
In part the letter reads:
“If you send me my ‘fare I will come
and see you Wednesday evening, but
don’t tell Alice. She would be mad.”
Most of the letters were in similar
vein.
The police said the book’s revela
tions probably would result in convic
tions for smuggling both c^pium and
Chinese for violation of the Mann v mte
slave law.
John Davis, of Kansas, City, Mo.,
the father of Mrs. Alice Sing, came
here today and visited his daughter at
the hospital. He explained that she
had become interested in the Chinese
through mission work in the Kansas
City Chinatown.
“She spent much of her time visit
ing the Chinese, reading to them, and
teaching them English,” he said. “I
did not know she was going to marry
a Chinese. Then she told me she had
and went away to Chicago, with him.”

HOT
Springs, firo swept, six million dollars
of its property destroyed, and 2,500 of
its people homeless, today issued the
following:
“While we do not wish to be placed
in the attitude of asking for outside
assistance, the cry of Kuffering hu
manity suggests the propriety of ac
cepting any assistance that may be
offered by a generous public. Thousands
of people have been rendered penniless
and homeless. The destitution is acute
and the need of assistance is imperative
and immediate. Ordinarily we could
take care of our local citizens in a dis
aster of this kind—but there are hun
dreds of citizens from other states
thrown on our bounty. This makes our
burden greater indeed.”
The appeal was authorized by a com
mittee composed- of city officials and
citizens. M. A. Kisle, 8l prominent citi
zen, war, chosen treasurer.
The city. exhausted in fighting the
conflagration which originated Friday
afternoon in a negro cabin and burned
over an area of 200 acres, nevertheless,
devoted the day to relief measures for
the homeless. Three thousand dollars,
subscribed at a mass meeting in the
forenoon,' was devoted to their pressing
needs. In the afternoon citizens and
the city council canvassed the situation
and decided to issue an appeal for aid.
Tonight two companies of state troops,
one from Conway, and the other from
Beebe are en route to Hot Springs on
orders of Governor Hays, to aid In
policing the place. There has been no
tension, but city officials, believing the
presence of the militia would be help
ful in handling the situation, asked
for the troops.
Latest estimates of the loss vary but
ltitl efrom the earlier figures, $6,000,-
000. The public utilities company has
partially resumed a lighting service,
and ,with mule-drawn cars, is furnishing
transportation. %
A generoifs downpour of rain, which
began shortly before noon today,
proved a valuable aid to the weary
workers fighting the smouldering ruins
of the $6,000,000 conflagration which
swept this city late yesterday and last,
night. In all, about 55 city blocks are
in ruins today. Perfect order prevails,
however, due to the efforts of the 250
citizen police, enrolled at last night’s
mass meeting. The 2,500 persons ren
dered homeless are being cared for,
and it is probable the city authorities
will not extend a call for assistance
from the state at large.
Governor Hays, who arrived today,
together with Mayor Taylor, of Little
Rock; J. W. Dean, general superinten
dent of the St. Louis and Iron Moun
tain railroad, and others are working
in conjunction with Mayor McClendon
in alf effort to bring order out of the
chaos. Two companies of state mili
tia will be used as guards, it is said.
The light and power company has pro
vided emergency facilities for the
newspapers and other industries to re
sume operations, but the city will be
in darkness for at least thir*’ r days.
At a mass meeting of citizens today
a committee was appointed to meet
with the city council this afternoon to
provide immediate fire fighting appa
ratus and care for the homeless. It
is probable Mayor McClendon will ac
cept the offers of apparatus from Pine
Bluff, Texarkana and Little Rock.
More than 6,000 feet of hose was
destroyed last night, and many of the
department horses rendered unfit fbr
further duty.
Ilayor McClendon today praised the
efforts of the local and Little Rock
fire fighters last night, pointing to the
fact that not a single fatality occurred
and only four persons were slightly In
jured. The patients from the Ozark
sanitarium were removed to other hos
pitals with little inconvenience before
the blaze attacked that Institution.
As complete art estimate of the loss
as could be made today follows: Park
hotel and furnishings, $500,000; pub
lic utilities. $350,000 to $400,000; South
western Telegraph and Telephone com
pany, $150,000; Garland county court
house, $200,000; Moody hotel, $110,000;
Hot Springs High school, $150,000;
Cooper Brothers, livery and transfer.

shops, $25,000; Dillard’s laundry, $40,-
000; People’s laundry, $40,000; Orange

pany, $30,000; Hamp Williams Hard

ness buildings $800,000; 625 to 700
residence buildings, many of them pa
latial structures, $2,000,000.
Hot Springs, a city of hotels and
rooming houses, found not difficulty in
caring for its homeless.
Every man, woman and child who
had lost property and homes found j
comfortable lodgings last night, and at j
midnight the city was as quiet and or- ;
derly as any city could be under the
circumstances.

Administration Bill Goes to
House Monday, With Minor
ity Report Filed
I (By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8,—The Bsnate
banking committee wandered from the
provisions of the administration cur
rency reform bill today and delved into
theoretical discussions of plans for cur
rency revision which has found favor
with some of its members.
Plans to refund the entire present
issue of government notes with a gen
eral federal currency secured only by a
50 per cent gold reserve, and proposals
to amqpd the present Aldrich-Vreeland
emergency currency act, formed the
basis for much of the questioning of
James B, Forgan and George H. Reyn
olds, of Chicago; Col Wexler, of New
Orleans,^and Prof. Sprague, of Harvard
university.
The senate committee had not com
pleted its hearings when adjournment
came tonight. Hearings probably will
be extended through next week.
The administration bill will be taken
Into the house Monaay with a favorable
report from the majority of the house
banking committee and debate will be
gin early in the week.
Representative Lindbergh, of Minne
sota, Progressive member of the com
mittee, today filed a minority report
criticising many features of the bill.
The bankers before the senate com
mittee took a positive stand today
against the feasibility of any issue of
government notes secured only by a
partial gold reserve, and put out as
the direct obligations of the govern
ment. * *
They referred with emphasis to the
days of “fiat money” to show that the
government’s credit might easily be im
paired and that it might be put into an
embarrassing position.

U. S. PAYS EURE BE
CITIZENS FROM MEXICO
PAYMASTER HELD UP
BY
pay Government, All Right,
If They Can't, All Right
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8.—The United
States government today broadened the
powers of Its consular representatives
in Mexico to such a degree that It is
believed there will be no further obsta
cle to a mbre general withdrawal of
American citizens from the danger
zones of the souther republic.
American consuls in Mexico who pre
viously had been instructed to furnish
first class transportation to any who
desired it on condition that they later
would reimburse the state department,
today received supplementary instruc
tions to give Americans whatever trans
portation they desired and they would
be expected to reimburse the govern
ment only if they were able, and at
thei r convenience. The adoption of this
liberal policy resulted from the possi
bility that many Americans would need
lessly linger in the trouble torn dis
tricts unless every facility for their de
parture was afforded.
Some Washington officials commented
for the first time on Provisional Pres
ident Huerta’s declaration that if the
American government was reluctant to
give the refugees firstclass transporta
tion, he gladly would do so. These
officials, instead of resenting the state
ment, regarded it as an act of generosi
ty and remarked that they hoped Senoi
Huerta’s beneficence would be extended
to repay Americans and other foreign
ers for the great losses their invest
ments had sustained through the cha
otic conditions resulting from Huerta’s
Irregular assumption of governmental
power.
There was no change today in the
Mexican situation. No messages of con
sequence were received either from
John Lind at Vera Cruz, or Nelson
O’Shaughnessy, the American charge
d’affaires at Mexico City. *
It is considered most likely that de
velopments will await the arrival here
next week of Senor de Zamacona, who
is expected to carry forward here the
negotiations for a peaceful settlement
of the difficulties in Mexico.
Though no announcement of the ad
ministration’s attitude toward his mis
sion has been made, it was predicted in
many quarters, he would be courteously j
received.
PARR SHOALS, S. C., Sept. 8.—Pay
master H. W. Maher, Assistant Cashier
Fred Boatman and Deputy Sheriff Joy
ner, of the J. G. White Construction
company, were held up by three armed
bandits shortly after 2 o’clock Friday
afternoon and robbed of $16,000, which
had been sent from a Columbia bank
to be used in the pay rool of the 1,800
employes of the company. The latter
was shot, but not seriously injured.
Three men,\ each armed with two re
volvers “covered” the paymaster and
his associates soon after the money had
been taken fro mthe express car at the
railroad tsation. Deputy Joyner attempt-
e dto resist the highwaymen and was
shot. The bullet entered the fleshy part
of his side. The others, seeing the result
of resistance and being unarmed them
selves, were forced at the point of six
revolvers to give up the bags contain
ing the money. The three bandits es
caped Into the woods and at 4 o’clock
this afternoon searching parties are
scouring the country in every direction.
The immense power plant now being
constructed has ben ordered shut down
in order to have all the men possible
available for the hunting parties.
Bloodhounds, several deputies and mem
bers of the Columbia police force, all
heavily armed, left Columbia at 4
o’clock this afternoon to take up the
trail of the bandits.
