Renovo,s Distress.

RENovo, Pa, June ll.-Ten days have
passed since the disastrous food swept
through three-q quarters Of Remove and laid
waste the houses OF the working people OF
the town
SO much has been said and written Of the
sutferings in other places that Remove has
been almost forgotten, except in the matter
Of provisions
Sufficient clothing and food have been con
trihuted 70 relieve the immediate wants Of
the distressed, but unless aid Ia the shape Of
money comes 70 the people they will be I'M
able TO again build up the homes which We're
destroyed by the food
The condition Of the people here Is distress
ing in the extreme. The majority Of the
homes destroyed represent the lifetime saw
ings Of workingmen, and unless outside aid
comes there will be suffering and poverty
such as hns not yet been known.
Unaided the people are unable TO start
anew the building up OF their destroyed
homes, and Chief Burgess and citizens gen
era ~ OF the town have asked the United
Press correspondent 20 make known through
the prass the condition OF affairs at this
place.
