representatives by President George j
H. Denny, of the University of Ala- j
hama, on "Certain 'Higher Duties of

in the University chapel,
Prof. Charles Lee Raper, of the University

Blease. In introducing tlie speaker
of the evening' Governor Blease took
occasion to pay a handsome tribute
to the acting president of the University,
I>r. A. C. Moore. "I hope the
time will not be far distant," he said,
i ''when the board of trustees of the
L University will make Dr. Moore per|
manent head of the institution." Con
tinuing, he said: When this is done
r 1, as governor, shall lend my full aid
* and nower to adequately providing for
the needs of the University."
Dr. Denny Speaks.
President Denny, in beginning, spoke
- of the changed attitude which the peoL
pie generally feel toward the colleges
and universities of the country. :'I
R think this has been brought about
principally through the fact that unionH
^liooroc nf fhp land have
VC1 auu v?. w -
begun to ally themselves more active
}y than ever before with the vital
forces of their respective State and I
HE to back up with all their power every i
mf agency making for advancement and
W progress."
Dr. Denny developed the three
thoughts, that college men of the present
must take as their creed a motto
of service; that tney must ngni, me
ultra-commercial tendencies of the
times, and must lend their efforts toL
ward the raising of ethical standards
ll of conduct.
The hall of the house was crowded
with an audience which showed its
appreciation of the address of Dr.
Denny with frequent applause.
Prof. Raper's Address.
This afternoon in the chapel of the
Vniversitv Prof. Charles Lee Raper, of j
, the University of North Carolina,
spoke of the tax system of this State,
showing that its present status parmits
of much inefficiency and injustice.
The address was very practical
and was heard by a number of the
members of the legislature. To-night
a movement is on foot to have a
similar speech delivered before the
general assembly to-morrow by Prof.
Raper, and this will possibly be done.
^ The State commission on taxation
if and more rigid laws governing the returning
of property for taxation were
among the principal ideas advanced by
the speaker.
The subject of the oration by M. A.
"Wright, of the student body, was "A
National Mission." The address dealt
" with the peculiar opportunity which
America has in leading the movement
for universal peace.
PRESIDENT ASKS AID
As Head of Bed Cross Mr. Wilson
Appeals to Americans to
Aid Japanese.
> Washington, Jan. 15.?President
Wilson late to-day issued an appeal to
the American people as president of
the American Red Cross for funds to
m assist the people of Japan, who are
fF suffering not only from the earthquake,
but from the failure of crops.
K The president's appeal follows:
JP "Our sister nation of Japan is suf'
fering from two very serious disasters.
The failure of crops in the northeastern
part of that country has brought
hundreds of thousands of persons face ;
to face with the terrible misery of!
slow starvation, and in the southwest-,
era island of Kyushu a sudden great i
volcanic eruption has carried death
p and desolation to large numbers in a
& thickly populated district.
"I appeal to the humanity of our
American people that they may give

B to-night that an appeal had been sent j
V out to all State chapters asking local
chapters to gather the funds.

Col. Robert M. Thompson, chairman
of the executive committee of the NavyLeague
of the United States, started a
subscription list with $1,250, to which
other members of the League and officers
of the navy added.

Kaneko, of the American Friends Society,
of Tokio:

People Terrified.
Kagcshima, Japan, Jan. 15.?Houses
on the Island of Sakura that were left
standing are enveloped in lava and
resemble gigantic wasps. [Fugitives
who have returned are still terrified
and refuse to enter their homes except
to make a hurried search for
valuables.
The western part of the island is
thirklv with melted sulDhur.
The southern part is coated with deposits
of ashes. The condition of the
central part is obscured by the heavy
smoke.
The staff of the Kagoshima observatory
throughout the eruption remained
at their posts facing extermination.
They recorded each phase, although
almost suffocated by poisonous
gases.
Half of Island Was Destroyed.
Washington, Jan. 16.?An official
account of the recent volcanic catas"
trophe in Japan was made public by
the Japanese embassy here in the
form of the following cablegram from
Tokyo:
"The volcanic eruption took place
on Sakura-Jima, an island off the city
of Kagoshima, on tie 12th and of 3,500
houses on the island half were
destroyed. The inhabitants took
refuge oil the opposite shore; casualties
unascertainable yet but supposed
not to be great; one report puts it at
200. Volcanic action still continues
but rumbling has ceased.
"The city of Kagoshima also was
visited by earthquake, while the cinders
poured down from across the
channel; the inhabitants closed
houses and fied; casualties 20 or more.
Majority of houses received some
damage, and railway, telegraphic and
telephone communications interrupted
for a while but already have been
restored.
"Actual extent, conditions and damages
now being ascertained but believed
not to be so serious as reported
-by the press.
"Karishima-Yama, a group of volcanic
mountains covering the north
side of the city of Kagos'aima, showed
volcanic action for a short period,
while the rumblings of Yso-Zan, a
volcanic mountain with the largest
in tho wrtrl r? nhnut 7n milfts
to the north of the city of Kagoshima,
also lasted for a while, but no damage
resulted."

WOULD SOUND KNELL
ON RULE OF KEASON
Stauley, of Kentucky, to Present New
Anti-Trust Law Amendment.?
Gives Individuals Right to Act.
Washington, Jan. 16.?(Representative
Stanley, of Kentucky, after a
conference with the president, introduced
late today an amendment to
the Sherman law mihich would make
illegal monopolization or restraint of
trade "in any degree," striking at the
"nilp of raason" laid down bv the
supreme court in *he Standard Oil
case.
The amendment also would invest
United States circuit courts with jurisdiction
to restrain and prevent violations
of the act, irrespective of the
attorney general. It was drawn to
meet the wish of the president, expressed
in his last message to congress,
to reduce the debatable area
surrounding the Sherman act. Representative
Stanley today discussed
the measure with the president.
Not Administration Measnre.
The Kentucky congressman, who
was chairman of the special committee
which investigated the United
States steel corporation, does not offer
the measure as an administration j
amendment, but believes it will be of j
service to the committees of congress j
which will draft the anti-trust legis- j
lation after the president's special
message is delivered.
The Stanley bill would amend the
second and fourth sections of* the i
I
Sherman law.
In section 2, in which the supreme
court injected the "rule of reason,"
the words "in any degree" are inserted
so that the section would read:
"Every person who shall monopolize
or attempt to monopolize, or combine
or conspire with any other person
or persons, to monopolize in any
degree any part of the trade or com
merce among the several States, or
with foreign nations, shall be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor, and on conviction
thereof shall be purnished by
fine not exceeding $5,000 or by imprisonment
not exceeding one year, or
by both said punishmen in the discretion
of the court."
