conservative men of Calves

will result from the storm. Over one
hundred lives were lost at other points
in Texas. Ten million dollars. it is
said, will cover Galveston's property

bodies have been weighted and sunk

GhouIs SUMMARY Dealt with.
Martial law prevails now aud
vandalism is being brought to a sud

hundred of these men have paid the
penalty for their crimes by summary
death. The water supply is now re-
ported as adequate and thereby one
of the wors. features of the situation
is eliminated. Provisions are being
poured into the stricken city by car

Many deaths resulting from un-
avoidable neglect and sanitary condi-
