which Is In great favor on tho const,
and, though only the first floor Is fin
ished, there is ample room on bo sec

Because of Its simplicity It should
also prove to be nn economical house
to build. The rooms nro nil of gen

Tho accident occurred at 4:30 a. m.
and at tho time all those who per
lohod wero asleep. The boat'began
to dip and take water and in an In
stant wns gone down, breaking in half.
Uiconscious of danger, those on deck
lound thomsolves precipitated Into the
swift current of tho deep channel.
They succeeded In catching hold of ob

attention from shore.

JAP WARSHIPS AT SANtPEDRO
, , ,
First to Enter Pacific Coast Port In
Ten Years.
Los Angeles, Cnl., April 2G. For the
first time In ten years warships of
Japan entered a Pacific const port of
the United Stntes when the cruisers
Soya and Aso, comprising the Japa
nese training squadron, commanded
by Rear Admiral Hijichl, steamed into
San Pedro. Tho Aso nnd Soya are

duration, which will tnke them to all
of tho principal ports of tho Pacific
coast. Tho two ships are prizes of
tho Russo-Japaneso war. The Aso Is
tho former Russian cruiser Dayan,
found in tho harbor of Port Arthur
after General Stoessol surrendered.
Tho Soya was formerly tho cruiser
Varlag, which was captured In the
harbor of Chemulpo. They nro com
paratively modern warships, carrying
heavy battnrios and equipped with
high speed engines.
QUAKES CEASE IN PORTUGAL
Number of Villages Wiped Out and
Many Lives Lost.
Lisbon, April 26. The seismic dis
turbances have now ceased throughout
Portugal. Every one is greatly im
pressed with tho courage and energy
of King Manuel, who after directing
the firemen In tho city when the first
and most violent shock occurred, set
out with physicians and supplies for
the districts where tho destrur'.l-
was the greatest. A number of vil
lages have been wiped out. Salvaterrn
and San Stefano were badly damaged.
Thirty-nine bodies have been taken
from the ruins and 120 persons aro
missing.. Hundreds were Injured, It
is reported that two large fishing boats
foundered and their crews, numbering
thirty-eight, perished. Parliament has
voted $10O,C00 for the relief of the
ouiferers.

Constantinople, April 20. The Ylldlz
garrison surrendered to the constitu
tionalist forces. The commanders ot
these bnttnllona begnn sending In
their submission to Mahmoud Scher
hot Pasha during tho night "and tb-i
whole of the troops protecting tho pal
ace gave their formal and uncondi
tional' surrender shortly after day
break. Nlacl Bey, who is called the hero of
the July revolution, Is now in com
mand of the garrison.
Sultan Abdul Hamld has been per
mitted to remain within the walls of
tho Yildiz Kiosk, where, in company
with his ministers, he had' waited for
the outcome of tho struggle between
his loyal troops and tho army of In
vestment, each hour bringing to him
word of a fresh disaster. It has been
stated, since victory rested with tho
constitutionalists, that tho sultan him
self gave orders to his men not to re
sist. Whether or not this is true, it
can bo safely said of tho troops with
in tho cnpital that they put up a stub
born resistance nt all points, and tno
losses on both sides aro exceedingly
heavy for tho length of timo tho en
gagement was in progress.
Parliament to Deal With Sultan.
A report of the commander in chief
ot the constitutionalist forces is au
thority for saying thnt the sultan will
bo dealt with by tho parliament and
that there will be an adequate Inquiry
Into the sovereign's alleged complicity
in tho recent mutiny. Up to tho pres
ent the ministry has not been dis
solved', but Constantinople and a num
ber of other places have been declared
in a state of siege.
Martial law prevails, and while
there Is somo uneasiness among the
people, order has been maintained
with a strict hand. The last garrison
to surronder was tho Sellmleh artil
lery barracks, in Scutari, opposite
Stnmboul. Four thousand men sta
tioned there, with a hundred guns,
threatened to blow tho city into ruins,
but General Schofket ordered up sixty
big guns and several batteries of ma
chine guns to positions wnlch com
manded' the barracks nnd tho cruiser
MedlJIeh stenmed out of range of tho
field pieces and prepnred for nctlon.
Tho commnnder of the barracks there
upon submitted.
Following Saturday's terrific fight
ing, the city took on an aspect of
strnngo quiet. Beyond n few scat
tering shots there was nothing to dis
turb the pence of tho city. Tho In
vesting troops wero reinforced, hov
ever, in the fear that the Yildiz gar
rison would rcmnin loyal to tho sultan
nnd continue the strugglo to tho end.
Fortunately iho officers In command of
these soldiers saw the hopelessness of
resistance and there was no opposition
when vnrlous commanders laid down
their swords nnd gave over their de
tachments to the strongly entrenched
"enemy." '
25,000 ARMENIANS MASSACRED
Latest Estimate of Number Killed In
Vilayet of Adana.
Beirut, April 2G. The situation In
Asiatic Turkey, is one of extreme grav
ity. How many thousands ha'a been
massacred cannot even be estimated,
because tho disturbances have ueon
so widespread that it is impossible to
secure details of the happenings dur
ing the past ten days. The latest esti
mate of thi number killed in the vil
ayet of Adana reaches approximately
25,000 and thousands have been done
to denth in the towns of other dis
tricts. The state of Bloge which sev
eral of the places experience have
brought the inhabitants to tne verge
of starvation and each day brings its
tales of further atrocities and the
depths of misery and despair to which
the savagery of the fanatics has
brought the people. Several warships
are now in these waters, but the dis
orders are so far reaching that tho cf
forts of the powers to restore norma,
conditions as yet have been bardl.
felt.
Sultan to Lose Throne.
Constantinople, April 27. The depo
sition of Sultan Abdul Hnmtd appears
now to be certain, and the 101 guns
saluting Mehmed Rechad Effendl as
the new ruler of the empire probably
will be beard before the next Selam
Ilk, on Friday. The dignitaries of tho
church care as little for Abdul Hamld
r.s does the committee of union and
progress, but the clergy are seeking
to curb the agitation of the enthusi
asts of the Mohammedan league. Sen
ators and deputies who have made in
quiry among the Ulemas find them In
different degrees favorable to the sul
tan's removal.
Two Thousand Slain.
London, April 26. Tho Standaro'a
Constantinople correspondent esti
mates that 2,000 men wero killed in
the lighting In the capital Saturday
and that tho losses were heaviest on
the side of the constitutionalists, who
did all Mm attaching and who offerml
good targets In the open.
