RELIEF TRAIN
TURNED BACK

Palermo. Dec. 30.-A relief train
dispatched toward Messina in the
hope of aiding the earthquake suffer
ers was forced to return here, being
able to go within only ten miles of
the stricken city, on account of demol.
.ished tracks. The engineer said that
all houses along the route showed eff
fects of the earthquake.
There was a slight short undulatory
shock of the earth at 1880 O'Clock last
evening which, in view of the disas-
trous results of the recent earthquake.
was sufficient to create a terrible
panic. There was general rush 10
the squares and open places. accom-
panied by lamentations and shrieks OF
fear. All day the population invaded
the churches and carried out the i'm
ages of the saints and sacred vessels,
then marched in procession through
the streets, imploring a cessation of
the earthquake scourge. News from
Messina calls for urgent measures
there. Food especially Is the present
greatest need as many are in danger
of starvation. All trains bring refu-
gees by the hundreds from the deyas
tated city.

slowly over the devastated area in an
