SEVENTY THOUSAND DIE
IN ITALIAN EARTHQUAKE
Disaster of Yesterday Proves to be Horrible Vista
tion, With Greater Loss of Life Than Has Come
In Many Hundred Years. Shock Followed
By Tidal Wave and Fire.

Rome, Italy, Dec. 29.-South Italy
and the Island of Italy have been Wis
tied by an appalling calamity, the ex-
tent of which cannot yet be grasped.
The earthquake yesterday wrecked
city after city and obliterated smaller
towns and villages without number.
The tidal wave swept along the
Straits of Messina and added to the
horror of the earthquake that of drown
ing the people in their helplessness
and panic. Then fire came to complete
the work of destruction and countless
and children were burned to death.
Loss of Life 10000 to 10000.
An adequate estimate of the total
casualties as yet is impossible but
the Tribuna places the number be-
tween 10000 and 10000. For horror
and destructiveness this visitation
will probably exceed that of any earth
quake in Italy since 1888 when 10000
perished at Messina alone. Reports
of heavy loses of life are coming in
every hour from city and villages
stricken with disaster and the story
in detail has only begun to be told as
the horror of the reports comes in.
Rome, Dec. 29.-The disaster in the
province of Calabria and the Island
of Sicily today assumed staggering
proportions. Each successive report
from the stricken region makes it
more apparent that the first stories of
the widespread destruction were lit
tie, if any, exaggerated. Messina al
one reports $4,000 victims but it is
feared that this is only partial list
of the dead and wounded. Reports
coming from other towns are giving
their estimation of the dead therein
from 500 up to several thousands
Reggie still remains in isolation.
The Roswell daily record. [volume] (Roswell, N.M.) 1903-current, 1908-12-29

I 1t is impossible to get word from the
| stricken city and this silence gives
| rise to the most fearful apprehension.
News comes from Messina. eight
miles north of Reggie but no reliable
| estimate is given of the dead there.
Vandalism of the worst kind has brok-
| en- out and the government has adopt
ed the most severe measures. Robbers
and looters are shot on sight. The
prison at Messina collapsed and some
| ten prisoners were killed but the sur
| vivors escaped and joined the 3'hooli-
gans' who are sacking the city.
Such confusion reigns that robbers
met with no resistance. The chief of
the local police lies dead in the ruins
of his Office. The barracks at Messina
were demolished. The commander of
the troops was killed outright and
many of the victims were enlisted
men. The government last night sent
General Fierra de Cossatto with an
army corps, to take full command of
the troops in the devastated territory.
One of the first moves will, be to de-
clare martial law.
The robbers pillaged the ruins of
the shattered buildings and even stole
clothing and valuables from the bod
les of the victims. They were not de-
tered by flames that broke out in
several sections of the city, but took
advantage of the light for their van
dalism.
The night in Messina was one of
horror indescrfbable; fire. robbery,
the dead and dying on every side.
The city was in the utmost confus-
ion and the people were panic strick-
en- and under spell of terror. Troops
began to arrive in Messina last night
and this morning number of steam
ers arrived from the peninsula with
soldiers. The patriots at once organ
ized and efforts were made to bring
some order to the situation. Bands of
citizens were formed who helped in
the work of rescue and many coura-
geous acts were performed by sold
iers and citizens alike, and in some
cases the rescuers themselves lost
their lives in trying to help others.
were extinguished and the lootfng was
under partial control, and comparative
order was restored. Everything posi-
BILE is being done to succor the woun-
ded, but the relief measures are still
utterly inadequate owing to the i'm
mensity of the disaster.
The finest churches, palaces and
theatres of Messina are heaps of ru-
iAs. Countless bodies are lying in the
.wreckage and their decomposition
will doubtless bring pestilence to add
to the horror OF the situation.
The devastation of the entire dis
trict is more or less complete. No
part of the province of Reggie or Cal
abria escaped. The disturbance was
most severe along the shores of the
Strait OF Messina, where the cities OF
Messina and Reggie are situated. In
more than one town the shock caused
the gas meters to explode and disas-
trous fires resulted. The flames help
| ed greatly to swell the death lists.
The configuration of the Straits of
Messina has been greatly altered
The tidal wave that completed the de-
struction of the earthquake was thir-
ty-two feet high. The wireless tele-
graph has been of the greatest assist
ance in getting reports from the dew
astated regions. and is helping the

Sells Another Fine Farm.

Walter Brown closed another
nice real estate deal here Tues
day when he sold his 240-acre
farm near Ferdinand to Clemens
Frei, of that place, for SO, 900, or
$40 an acre. In the deal Mr..
Brown took over Mr.. Frei's 160-
acre farm south of Ferdinand for
81, 900.
This deal gives Mr.. Frei one of
the finest farms in the country
as practically every foot of the
land he has bought is fine farm
land. The place has been farm
ed by A. N. Richardson for the
past couple years but Mr.. Frei
will take possession shortly after
the first of the year. That he
will make a very valuable place
of it is certainty.
