REPORTS WERE EXAGGERATED
Not Nearly SO Much Suffering In Ia
pata County, Tex, as Was at
First Reported.

Dallas, Tex, Sept. 2.-Advices to
the News show that the reports of the
effects of the drought in Zapata coun-
~ have been much exaggerated. Rep
resentative Seabury, who represents
Zapata county i'm the legislature, has
letters from friends in various parts
of the county advising him that the
reports that anyone has starved to
death there are unfounded. There
has been no suffering, for while some
have not made sufficient crops for
their own subsistence, the better
classes are willing and able TO sus-
tain them. This is being done, rem
dcring outside aid unnecessary, Rep
resentatiye Seabury says.
