AWFUL SITUATION
 IN RUINED CITY

Messina, January 5.-After sleeping one night on a plank, without any covering in the rain the correspondent of the As sociated Press the next night took refuge in hospital on board ship where there were 400 wounded persons without sim gle nurse All night the piteous cries of the distressed persons for water were unheeded because of the lack of attend ants and several of them died before day. light. Many women among the rescued gave premature birth to children.
 The difficulties of removing the injured from Messina and Reggie are increased because of the fact that there are no docks and it is necessary to transfer by row boats
 Many cases of typhoid fever have brok- en out here. This fact will cause dras- tic action to be taken immediately for the disposal of the dead.

DEFENSE OF HANS
 BADLY DAMAGED District Attorneys Questions
 Cause Irritation WORN OUT WITH PRISON Thornton Hains Falters In His Testi- mony Under Sharp Questioning and
 Fails to Remember Ger
 tain Happenings.

Flushing, N. Y, January 5.-New lights We're thrown on the relationships of William E. Annis and Mrs. Claudia Hains in the trial of Thornton J. Hains today when the defendant, under ex- animation, declared that several years ago in Marblehead, Mass. he became aware that Annis and Mrs. Hains had stopped at the same hotel. Questioned by Justice Crane, Thornton Hains said he never spoke of the relations be- tween Mrs. Hains and Annis to Cap tain Hains, and had remained silent on the matter until last spring.
 The fabric of the defenses case was badly torn today when Thornton Hains, under sharp cross examination by the states attorney made many damag- ing admissions. His jaunty manner quickly disappeared in the fire of the prosecutors interrogations, and several times he admitted that he could not remember the minor details of the same testimony he had given yester- day. Once in a plaintive voice Hains said:
 q can't remember. I never was so tired in my life. I have been five months in prison and I'm worn out"
 Thornton Hains couId not say when at the Waldorf, on August Is, on his way to Bayside, why he had not stepped across the street to Jesper- sons office to find out wh ere he was, instead of going to the yacht club with only an impression that he might have been there. The defendant said he did not know whether Captain Hains had time enough to purchase a revolver when he fell behind Weaver and him self on the walk up Broadway on Au gust 15. c
 The cross-examination of the de- fendant was still in progress when the court adjourned until tomorrow, when the defendant will be questioned about the shooting at the Bayside Yacht club.
 Hains Confident.
 Hains gave every indication of con fidence when he resumed the witness stand today. His high pitched voice was clear and he employed it with much dramatic skill in answering the ques- tions of counsel. Other than to pass his hand over his hair once or twice Hains evinced no signs of nervousness.
