TOPIC OF RAILROAD MEN

W. C. A. Henry, Assistant, is Spoken of as Possible Successor Is Young Man, But has Wide Experience in Railroad Motive Department. Columbus, O., Aug. 1. iSpl.) The sole topic of conversation among officials, office men, and shop ri:-n of the Pennsylvania railroad for three days has been the death of Michael Dunn, superintend' Ht of motive power for the southwf.it system, with headquarters in Columbus, and his probable successor. The name oT V. C. A. Henry, for some weeks Mr. Dunn's assistant, was almost the only one considered by officials in the latter connection. The office of assistant superintendent of motive power on the southwest system, was created a few weeks ago, when it became apl'arcnt,that Miv Junn would not recover," and it "was generally believed when Mr. Henry was appointed to this place that he would be Mr. Dunn's successor. No official appointment has been made yet, however. Mr. Henry is well known in this city, having been assistant engineer of motive. power her for a year some three years ago. He is scarcely thirty years of age, and has been out of college only five years. The appointment, if he receives it, will show the high opinion of his ability which is held by the Pennsylvania officials.

BOTH IN GOOD HEALTH

Congressman "Nick" Announces that Speaker Cannon Will Ee on Hand to Make a Speech in His Eeha'f Mrs. Longworth Shows Willingness To Help. Cincinnati, Aug. 1. Congressman Nicholas Longworth and his wife, the daughter o' President Roosevelt, arrived here, at their future home, this afternoon, after their protracted trip abroad. Hoth Mr. and Mrs. Longworth expressed pleasure at beum again in Cincinnati, and said they would now remain here permanently. They will reside in the old Longworth mansion, Rookwood, on Grandin Road. Mr. Longworth will at once begin his canvas for a return to congress from the First District of this city. Mrs. Longworth said, laughingly: "I would willingly try to Ivlp my husband return to congress if he would permit me to do so." Mr. Longworth remarked that Speaker "Joe" Cannon would be in Cincinnati, and make a speech in behalf of his candidacy during the campaign. When pressed with the question of whether he would have the support of the George R. Cox Republicans, he would truly say: "I will not discuss those matters." He said he was certainly a candidate, but that was all there was to say on the subject now. He said he found Englishmen greatly interested in V. J. Iiryan as the great American orator, and flocking to hear the Nebraskan at every opportunity. GEORGE MORRISON DEAD Shelby ville, Ind., Aug. IS, (Spl.) George C.

NEW CIRCUITS PLANNED

The Work of the Methodist Protestart Conference at Greenfield Drawing Rapidly to Close Memorial Service Will be Held TciayGreenfield. Ind.. Aug. 1 s. (Spl.1 The committee iu charge of the stationing of the ministers of the Methodist Protestant Conference is encountering numerous perplexing problems iit establishing new boundaries of some of the circuits, and it is possible the committee will not be able to report on the assignment ot pastors until late Mondaj. The discussion of church union was curtailed yesterday afternoon that the conference might hear William Brown juilue of the jue!ii!e court of Salt Lake City, Ft ah, who stopped o:T in this city on his way to Winona. He described the undesirable inHucnces that surround the young and said he regarded the cause of cigarettes one of the prime evils. He regretted that the Indiana Supreme Court was obliged to destroy on ;i technicality the purpose of the law. The Rev. W. A. Shaw, of Indianapolis, also condemned the cigarette and urged the closer union of churches. The anniversary of the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society was observed tonight. The annual memorial service will be held tomorrow morning and will be followed by the ordination sermon by the Rev. Dr. M. L. Jennings, of Pittsburg. Tomorrow afternoon will be devoted to the Christian Endeavor rally. All the pulpits in the city will be occupied morning and evening by members of the conference. The session will adjourn Monday. The real business of the conference today is in the hanjfs of the various committees .and the members are working industriously to complete their work. WERE KILLED IK THE QUAKE (Continued From Page One.) as the refugees ' could be taken aboard because it was feared by the commanding officers that a tidal wave was due and therefore it was necessary to take all precautions. None of these ships have as yet succeeded in getting back here. Other Places Stricken. It is not alone at Valparaiso, however, that the damage has resulted. Vina Del Mar, a suburb whose population is about nine thousand, is reported a mass of ruins; Quil Puque, a small place east of there, and Limache, are also badly damaged, but up to the present time no loss of life is known. Santiago, Chili, is also badly damaged and although the city is absolutely cut off from the outside communication, it is now known that a triple shock devastated almost all of the larger structures in the business section. The loss of life there, like the loss at ' Valparaiso, inust remain problematic for a time, most of the messages received here simply being of the character to indicate that certain persons efcaped with their lives. The Latest Advices. According to a brief message received here tonight from Albernal Hastings, of Galveston, who is the South American representative of a big Eastern concern, every structure that fronted on the Alameda highway is in ruins, and as this is the most important thoroughfare in the capital city, it seems certain that the danage in the city must be very groat. However, as the houses in the City are only small structures it will )o possible to repair the damage soon. In fact, judging by advices already received here, the Chilian i troops on the scene are in absolute control of the situation and have driv en all persons out of the city with the exception of certain construction forces who have already been pressed into service to clear away the ruins and assist in remedying the damage done by the quake and the resultant fares. Assistance Offered. Boston, Aug. IS. Mayor Fitzgerald telephoned to City Hall from his summer home at Old Orchard today and gave instructions to forward the following telegram: "Mayor of Valparaiso, ChPe: "Boston extends sincere sympathy, and offers any assistance desired. (Signed) "JOHN F. FITZGERALD, Major of Boston. Mass." Modern City. Washington, Aug. 18. Manuel Vega, the Chilean charge hre, has been unable to get into communication with hi3 government, and he is dependent entirely on the newspapers for news of the disaster. Chilean consular representatives in various parts of the United States have appealed o Mr. Vega for news of the earthquake, but so far he has been unable to give them any satisfaction. Because of the admirable construction of buildings in Valparaiso Mr. Vega is not faclined to believe that the loss of life has bcn heavy. The city is one ot the most modern in South America and lacks the narrow Etreets and frail buildings, which are common to so many cities in Latin AmericaProduced Tidal Wave. .

RESULT OF THE INQUIRY GREATEST ROGUE OF THE CEN TURY IS HOW THE MISSING PRESIDENT OF CHICAGO BANK IS CHARACTERIZED. tPubtishers' TrrssJ j Chicago, Aug. IS Theft through I forgery, perjury and manipulation to jthe amount of more than Jl.OOO.OoO j is officially declared to be the record ; of Paul O. Stensland. who is called the greatest bank crook in history in the report of State Ra'ik Kxaminer C. C. Jones submitted to State Auditor McCullough and made public today. The report, which is the first of its kind ever bared in this way. gives the result of the examination of the Milwaukee Avenuo State Rank and sets forth in detail the methods by which the fugitive president looted the institution. Is No Parallel. Mr. Jones says that there Is no parallel in banking history of the successful carrying out of such an extensive scheme of robbery, forgery and looting, extending as it did over ;i period of five years and continued without detection through a dozen bank examinations. He declares Stensland to be the shrewdest crook in history and ,says the closing of tho bank has ended a most remarkablo career, bringing in its train, as it has, suicide, death and misery. Failed to Detect Fraud. As an excuse for his failure- to detect the fraud on past examinations, he says that he took the forged notes at their face value, especially inasmuch as many of them were inndorsed with interest payments, somo of such payments extending back for years. An Exciting Incident. There was an exciting few minutes In front of the failed bank this morning. Flourishing a revolver and declaring Bhe would kill Paul O. Stensland if she could find him, a woman led a crowd of 200 strong in a charge on the doors of the wrecked Mllwaukeo Avenue State Bank. The crowd was made up of the depositors who had been led to believe through tho order of Judge Brentano, that a 20 per cent, payment would bo made immediately, that they should get their money at once. Frenzied at the efforts of those in charge to prevent their entrance to the bank, and failing to understand that affidavits of deposit must be approved, (he crowd refused to disperse. Denouncing Stensland and all concerned with the bank, tho crowd responded to the cries of tho woman, as she elbowed her way to the door of the bank, swinging her revolver around her head. She called on tho officials to open tho doors and pay her the money sho had deposited. Balked in her efforts to enter, the woman turned and delivered a harangue to the crowd. Excited by her words, other depositors pressed close to the door and were fast reaching a point where at a signal I they might have stormed tho bank, when the police arrived. ports from the islands CV Hawaii, Maui and, Hilo report a tidal wave, the general height of which was five feet. In the enclosed bay of Malea, on the island of Maui, Its height was estimated to be 12 feet, where it carried away a wharf and Its superstructure. The phenomenon was manifested by an unprecedeutedly heavy surf. The tidal wave is attributed to the earthquake at Valparaiso. Thirty years ago an earthquake in South America produced similar effects. Many Houses Destroyed. Buenos Ayres, Aug. 18. Telegrams from Mendoza (which is an entrepot for the trade between Buenos Ayres and Chile, with which it communicates by the mountain passes of Uspallata and Portillo) are to the effect that many houf.es in the Los Andes district were, destroyed by earthquake and that ther have been a large number of casualties. The Interruption of ajl means of communication with Chile causes much anxiety. Many rumors of disaster are afloat. Many Buildings Destroyed. Hamburg, Aug. 18. The North German bank received from Its correspondent, the Banco De Chile y Alemania at Valparaiso, the following dispatch: "All well. Bank building only .slightly damaged. Many houses destroyed by fire. We are unable to state extent of damage. Banks are closed." Firts Followed Quake. Liverpool, Aug. 18. A local firm received the following cable message from Valparaiso: "A severe earthquake occurred. The town is much damaged. Large fires have broken out. It 13 impossible to estimate the amount of damage." Town Nearly Destroyed. New York,, Aug. 18. Wessel, Duval & Co., which does a large business In South America, especially Chile, has Just received the following dispatch from Valparaiso: "Town nearly destroyed.
