As Communication Is Opened Dis
tress in Porto Rico Becomes
More Appalling.
Two Hundred Bodies Recovered
at Arecibo and Hundreds Are
Missing.
General Davis Says the Disaster
Is Greater Than He Had
Anticipated.

New YORK. Aug. IA dispatch to
The Herald from San Juan says:
Communication with the distressed
districts IS still only partly open. Are
cibo was devastated by the hurricane
and later was flooded by the Arecibo
and Manati rivers. Two hundred bod
les have already been recovered. and
hundreds more are missing. 1t Is
thought they were swept into the
stream, as the town was inundated to
depth Of six feet. The town is now
rapidly filing up with starving persons
from the country. Only four soldiers
were drowned, bat all are without
shelter. Captain McComb and his men
did valiant service in saving life. Forty
persons were rescued from floating
wreckage. a thousand head of cattle
were lost there.
At Naranzlto. 20 persons are known
to have been killed. A thousand are
homeless and starving. Noravis is
totally destroyed.
At Gales. 20 persons were killed.
Many are missing at Barcelonita. Seven
residents were killed. At Cayeye the
death roll is at least 70.
1t is impossible to estimate the loss of
life and property in the country dis
tricts. Every river is still swollen and
passage is we'll nigh impossible.
Children Dying BY Hundreds
The crops are totally destroyed.
Children are dying by hundreds from
starvation and exposure.
All the people are focking to Bayamo
for food and shelter. a courier has Just
arrived here from Yabucoa. He says
the town was demolished by the storm.
Already SO bodies have been recovered,
and II is estimated that 200 persisted.
Many are wounded.
Medical assistance is scarce in all
parts Of the island. What makes the
present distress greater is the fact that
a month ago all public improvements
were stopped, owing to the lack of ap-
preparations. Thousands of persons
were then thrown out Of employment.
A renewal Of public works would be a
great relief.
General Davis says the latest reports
show the disaster to be greater than he
had anticipated, and extends over the
whole island. He is doing everything
in his power to alleviate the suffering
and has every confidence in generous
responses from his appeal to the Amer
lean people. Where possible the troop.
that lost their shelter in the hurricane
have been ordered to San Juan.
