BERLIN. Nov. 6.-Statistics show that
during the year, from October is. 1908.
to October rs. 1909. the deaths due TO
misadventures in the Alps were eighty
four. The greatest number OF casualties
occurred to Swiss and Germans.
Three famous Milanese climbers were
lost in crevssse on Monte Rosa. Another
Italian. with two guides. was engulfed on
the same mountain. Numerous search
parties were able 20 find a trace OF
either party. The Jungfrau also claimed
six victims.
