Hong Kong, Sept. 2l.--The entire

lost in the typhoon. This increases
the mortality to ten thousand persons.
Practically all Of the Baluchistan
troops are cooperating in clearing the
wreckage of the recent typhoon. Bo-
dies are being carried off in carloads.
Many scavengers are being overcome
by the terrible stencil.
Terrible Scene in Harbor and Town.
The scene in the harbor and sur.
rounding districts is one of death and
desolation. The waters of the bay
are filled with floating debris inter-
spersed with human bodies, terribly
swollen and purifying under the
fierce rays of the sun. Ow-
ing to the fact that so many of the
smaller crafts were lost in the storm,
the work of clearing the harbor and
the river. is rendered difficult. Most
of the bodies among the ruins of
buildings. on the land, have been cart.
ed out and buried Soldiers. civilians
and collies work side by side, digging
graves and gathering bodies for burial.
Many of those missing were lost at
sea. Mothers search for children,
wives for husbands and friends for
friends. The exact loss of life will
probably remain unknown.
Storm Which Followed Typhoon Add.

The storm which followed the ty.
phoon, a night later, added greatly to
the confusion. 1t did little damage
but the people were frightened and
fled inland. Many suffered severely

Ing been destroyed by the typhoon.
