ANOTHER QUAKE
VISITS MESS|NA
Residents Are Driven From Their
Homes and Are Now Camped
in the Fields and Streets.
The Broken Walls of the Old Ruins
Thrown to the Ground, But SO Far
as Known, a Mother and Child
Were the Only Ones Killed.

Messina.-This city experienced twu
terrific earthquakes at about half past
Z o'clock Thursday morning, July /,
which were accompanied by roaring
sounds and are said to have had a
stronger and more unduatory move,
ment than the one last December
which destroyed Messina and other
cities, laid waste many villages in
Calabria and killed 100000 persons.
Although the shocks Thursday had
no such terrible consequences, the 25,.
600 residents of the city were thrown
into terror. They ran into the streets
panic-stricken, and nearly the entire
population is encamped in the open
places, fearing to return to the struc
lures which nave served them as
homes since the city was destroyed.
The broken walls of the old ruins
were thrown to the ground and Mes.

cred in cloud of dust.
The casualties were few and the only
persons killed, so far as Is known,
were young woman and her infant.
The woman had come here only few
days ago and had settled in rooms
which the great earthquake had left
relatively unchanged. She was
standing at the door when the shock
occurred and rushed inside to save
her child. Before she could escape
from the room the second shock threw
down the walls, burying both mother
and child under the stairs.
Several persons were struck by de
tached stones. but so far as is known
no one was fatally injured
All commerce ceased in the city and
the places of business along the sea
front were closed. AS result sew
eral thousand workmen were idle and
special precautions are being taken
to prevent disorder.
Reggie suffered almost as severe a
shock as Messina, but no casualties
have been reported at that place. Ac-
cording to the reports the effect of the
earthquake was practically the same
as at Messina. The seismic disturb
ances was felt at Taormina but no
damage was done there. Within
twenty-four hours the shocks at Mes
sina numbered twenty-three.

During the year just passed $50 per-
sons in the city of Newark were
slain by tuberculosis. These figures
are, indeed, alarming, not only on
account of their magnitude. but
because, of the wreckand ruin thus
brought into the homes of our citi-
zens. the loss to our city and State
of many worthy men and women,
and the poverty and hopelessness
Of the families thus deprived OF
their wage-earners.
With the death rate from this dis
ease so large; with the certainty
that there still exist many hun
dreds of cases within the grasp OF

with the admitted fact that the
disease lis communicable. it seems
unbelievable that we have re-

ravages. and that we should allow
ourselves to be subject daily to its
dangers.
Efforts are being made to stamp out
!. this evil, or at least to allay its
growth. In this crusade the city
Of Newark is now taking its
place. A Committee of One Hum
dred of its leading citizens has
been formed, and sub-committees
have been assigned to take up the
details Of this warfare In behalf

An appeal to the public for funds
to aid the Committee OF One Hun
bred in the fight against t~ubereufo-
sis was decided on at a meeting OF
the finance committee of the general
committee in the board room Of the
Federal Trust Company late yes
terday afternoon. A formal state
ment to the public was issued.
All the members of the committee
were present with the exception of
James s.. Higbee and ex-Mayor
Henry NJ. Doremus. Charles G.

tional committee of the Committee
of One Hundred, was also present
by invitation.
1t was the general sentiment X
pressed that the funds raised should
be used in sucha way as to meet the
approval of the Board of Health.
whose cooperation the COMMITTEES
feels is necessary for the success OF
the movement.
The appeal Is as follows:
To the Public.
This is an appeal in behalf Of hui
manity. The greatest menace to
health and the most prolific reaper
of death is the dread disease tu-
berculosis. The home of poverty
and the palace of wealth are Wis
tied alike by this scourge. In Its
wake it has left. and is still leav-
ing, it's rayages and desolation, and
now alarm is abraod at it's spread.
This alarm in itself is reassuring,
for it shows that the public at last
is awakening to the horrifying fact
that they have permitted to exist
in our midst conditions which have
served but to increase the death
rate of this loathsome and infec-
tious scourge beyond that of any
other disease.

the annual reports OF, the de-

another one-story frame building be-
longing to the group at the western
end. Beyond that was another frame
structure used as a dwelling house.
That was not touched at all.
The fact that the buildings bordered
on the canal made 1t difficult for the
men to get to work properly on that
side. and that was where the flames
we're rapidly taking hold. The tow
path is but six feet wide and offered
no opportunity I'd erect ladders n
play the streams down upon 1t.
Some of the engines were therefore
dispatched to the other side of the
canal and lines run across the roof of
the r. p. Howell factories on that side
OF the water.
THE several buildings abutting on the
factory, although lower than the large
nuilding, gave the firemen a chance to
get their pipes up through the windows.

8, with a squad of men, lined these

The most dangerous feature that had

Appeal to Public 10 Hid In fiSbt
AGAINST TIE Dread White Plague

In addition to this campaign of
education the committee hopes to
be helpful in the establishment
and maintenance of a complete
public record OF the existence Of
all cases Of tuberculosis, and the
creation and enforcement of pub
lie regulation and control thereof.
Its aim also is to provide suits-
BILE places of isolation, not only
for the incipient case, but for the
advanced patient as we'll, seek
ing thereby not only the public
welfare, but the control and pos
sible cur of the patient.
A vigorous campaign against the
disease will surely bring success.
In localities where earnest effort
has been made > material reduc-
ton in the death rate has been
effected. The same result can be
attained here.

terests and wel-being OF all the
