HOLY LAND NOW
CAMP
JERUSALEM. Sept, 25—Armed air
ships and aeroplanes are continually
flying over the birth place of the
Prince of Peace at Bethlehem, accord
ing to the Bote Aus Zion (The Mes
senger from Zion) a paper published
in Palestine by a Swiss missionary.
Nearly the entire Holy Land has been
transformed into a military camp.
Soldiers are manoeuvring every day
on the Mount of Olives, at Golotha and
Jerusalem. The English, French and
Russian convents have been turned
Into barracks and between Judea and
Jericho, where transportation was
by mule pack in the days of Christ
came to*bring "peace on earth,” a road 1
Is being constructed for armored mo
tor cars.
Long columns of buffaloes, driven
by Arab peasants are hauling carts |
loaded with powder, projectile and
other supplies for the Turkish army
the favorite routes of pilgrims in Pale- j
stine. Fast dromedaries of the carnet
corps maintain communication be
tween the camps in Palestine and the
Turkish headquarters. It is supposed j
that the concetration of the young re- J
cruits in the Holy Land is with a view
of another attacsk upon Egypt.

TRADE Of SOUTH
SEA ISLANDS
TOKIO, Sept. 25—Since the cap
ture of the South Sea Islands from
Germany by the Brltish-Japanese
fleets, Japan has been exerting every
effort to spread her influence in these
islands, which are now in her posses
sion. The question of the permanent
occupancy, however, will not be set
tled until afer the war.
Japan recently sent technical com
missions to study the Islands from a
commercial standpoint, and followed
that up by dispatching a special
steamer filled with newspapermen on
a tour of inspection. Now, Japan is
entertaining the royalty of the islands.
There is one full-fledged King and
twenty-one other chieftains of various
degrees who have been brought here
on a naval transport from the islands
of Kusai, Jaluit, Seypan, Yap, Pelew
and Ponapi in the Caroline group
which hag been wrested from German
control and are now under Japanese
administration. Roughly, these is
lands lie between the tlnited States
island possession of Guam and the
Philippines.

TOKIO, Sept. 25—The bribery
scandal which caused the downfall of
Viscount Oura. the home minister, and
forced a reconstruction of the Okuma
ministry has extended to others. Four
more former members of the Diet
have been arrested.
Thirteen men are now in jail await
ing trial on charges connected with
parliamentary corruption. These in
clude four members of the present
Diet and seven ex-members of the
Diet. The others are Mr. Kametaro
Hyashida who wag chief secretary of
the House of Representatives and the
manager of a Japanese firm at Dairen.
The reconstructed Okuma Cabinet
has announced that it will pursue the
policy of the old, and as Mr. Y. Ozaki
contiues to be minister of Justice the
bribery affair may be expected to be
probed to the bottom.

ISLE OF liN IS
BY
.—1 .
LONDON, Sept. 25—The Isle of
Man, which has enjoyed home rule
since ancient times Is in such an |
economic quandry that a proposal to
ask the imeprial government that the
Island be annexed to the County of i
Lancashire was recently considered in j
the House of Keys, the legislative
assembly of the Island. The member,
who moved the resolution declared 1
that the island faced "imminent star
vation and bankruptcy owing to the
bungling and incompetence of the
present Island administration."

OF BOATS AT
LIVERPOOL, England, Sept. 25—
For the first time since war broke out,
there are no ships in the river await
ing berths. This clearance of the con
gestion difficulty, which not many
weeks ago was holding up thirty boats
daily Is attributed to the strenous ef
forts of the harbor officials and ship
owners. Prize cargoes have been re
moved from the quays thus affording
greater facilities for handling cargoes
from arriving boats, and a clear way
is also made for the forthcoming cot
| ton cargoes from the Southern States.
