but they are insufficient.
According to the latest accounts
there are now thirty-six ships at Mes
sina engaged In relief and salvage.
Communication between the ships
and the land Is difficult and slow
owing to the destruction OF the land
ing stages. Five thousand soldiers
have already been landed. They are
engaged in burying the dead. Iden-
tification in innumerable cases Is i'm
possible owing 10 the way the bodies
are mangled, and also to putrefaction
having set in. The speedy disposal
of the remains is imperative in the
interest of the living.
The burials are being made in long
trenches, as after big battle. 1t is
doubtful whether the bodies of the
foreign visitors who perished can be
distinguished from those of natives,
but wherever Identification is pos
sible a record is kept.
Several cargoes of quicklime have
been landed and scattered on the
ruins, partly to prevent contagion and
reduce the odor and partly to prevent
dogs from devouring the bodies.

Messina, Jan. 5.-The first cases
OF typhoid fever have broken out.
This fact will cause drastic action to
be taken Immediately in the disposal
of the dead.
The hope Of rescufng any OF the
living beneath the ruins have now
been abandoned
Until the present time attention
has been concentrated upon the re-
mova1 of human bodies from the
streets. while the careasses OF AMI
mails killed by the earthquake and
those of dogs and cats shot by the
patrols have been left lying where
they fell. The delay of these car
casses has greatly augmented the
danger OF the spread of disease.
The earth shocks are continuing.
though they are diminishing I'm iuten-
sity. At night especially are they
frequently felt. The fires In the city
also are being gradually extinguish-
ed. The Official figures complied
thus far show that 1900 bodies
have been buried in four cemeteries.
that 5000 refugees have left the city
and that 5000 persons still remain
| here.

that every house In which IL IL be-
