Yellow River Floods Cause
Great Suffering.
TWO MILLION PEOPLE IN DISTRESS.
Hundreds of Chinese Villages Still.
Submerged—Ainerican Residents
Appeal For Help From Home.
Ship Load of Corn Wanted.
VVASI—IINGTON, March 25.—Citizens
of the United States residing in Chefu,
'China, have made an earnest appeal
through Consul Fowler at Chefu to the
charitable in America and elsewhere on
behalf of the sufferers from the ap-
palling Yellow river floods of this year.
These floods have been described by
the natives as “China’s sorrow,”-and
the petitioners state that never before
rending as now. The most conserva-
tive estimates place the number of
starving at 2,000,000, and time and the
increasing cold weather will undoubted—
ly greatly augment the distress.
The petitioners say that they are dai-
ly, almost hourly, in receipt of reports
from their countrymen in the interior
refugees; hundreds of villages are sub-
merged; cities surrounded by water;
homes, furniture, clothing—in fact, ev-'
erything .is under water or destroyed;
that natives themselves are living in
straw huts. Many have absolutely no
shelter from the winter’ 5 cold and
snow, subsisting on bark, willow twigs,
roots, etc. The summer’s crops have
been a failure, the seed for next
spring’s sowing is gone, and there is
nothing for these starving millions to
hope for in the future.
‘With our knowledge of the terrible
want prevailing,” says the American
committee, “we venture to call upon
the charitable in our home land to as-
sist us in trying to alleviate at least
a portion of this misery. Therefore, we
shall be glad to receive contributions of
money and corn. We earnestly beg the
merchants and others on the Pacific
coast to contribute a ship load of corn.
The natives of.Shangtung, unlike those
dOWn south, subsist upon corn, and we
believe that if the grain men of the
west will ship to the United States
consul at Chefu direct from the Pa-
cific slope a steamer loaded with corn
it will be the means of not only saving
but of opening a
market of from 25,000,000 to 30,000,000
consumers later on, as under normal
conditions American corn can easily
compete'with native, and if this corn be
sent we guarantee that it will be dis—
tributed under the direct and personal
supervision of Americans now residing
In or near the submerged districts. We
ask for money to be sent to the United
States consul here, with which food,
clothing and stock can be bought for
the sufferers, and we: guarantee a strict
ceived. Shangtung is peculiarly inter-
esting to American merchants as the
best market for their products in all
China; to the missionaries because
there are five denominations represent-
ed, comprising 118 adults, scattered all
over this vast province and to whom
we look to assist us in distributing such
relief as we may receive. Probably in
no place in the world, and probably not
in this generation, has there been so
much suffering as is now being endur-
ed in Shangtung. The natives are do-
ing all in their power. One firm in Che—
fu has contributed the equivalent of
$70,000 in cash and 10,000 bags of corn,
and all classes are contributing, but let
us not forget that there are 2,000,000
starving.”
Newfoundland Crisis Ended.
ST. JOHN’S, N. F., March 25.—An ar-
rangement for settling the political
crisis has virtually been concluded. Sir
James Winter, the premier, will retain
the premiership until the end of the
year, which will pe1 mlt him to conclude
his 11 ork as a member of the British—
American- Canadian commission. He
will then take the chief justiceship, Mr.
Morine, former minister of finance, suc-
ceeding him as premier. Mr. Morine
will now re-enter the cabinet, and the
only obstacle in the may of a settle-
.ment is the question of a rearrange-
ment of portfoliosconsequent upon his
recall.
