Few Casualties.

The casualties were few and the only
persons killed, so far as is known. We're
a young woman and her infant. The We
man had come here only a few days ago
and had settled in rooms which the great
earthquake had left relatively undam-
aged. 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 detached
stones but so far as is known no one was
fatally injured.

Messina. July 1.-Messina experienced
two terrific earthquakes at about half past
z O'Clock this morning, which were accom-
panied by roaring sounds and are said
to have had a stronger and more undula-
tory movement than the one last Deem
Der which destroyed Messina and other
cities laid waste many villages in Calab-
ria and killed 10000 persons.
Although the shocks today had no such
terrible consequences, the 5000 residents
Of the city were thrown into terror. They
ran into the streets panic-stricken, and to-
night nearly the entire population is en-
camped In the open places, fearing to re-
turn TO the structures which have served
them as homes since the city was de-
strOyed.
The broken walls of the old ruins were
thrown 10 the ground and Messina was for
a few minutes smOthered- in a cloud Of

DEAD CHINAhAN
LOOKS LIKE LING
Murderer of Elsie SigeI May
Have Thrown Himself Into
the Hudson River.

New York, July 1.-Although com
plete identification was Impossible TO-
night, there appeared to be strong
probability that the body of a China
man which was found floating in the
Hudson river near the upper part Of
the city this evening was that of Leon
Ling, or William I. Leon, the muir
derer of Elsie SigeL The mans height,
weight and general appearance tallies
with that of Leon Ling. but as the
body was nude except for a silk under
shirt, and had been in the water for
more than a week, a thorough exami-
nation will be necessary to identify it.
Coroner Mcdonald. who was the first
to inspect the body, believes it is
Icons, as DO the police.
If it is Leon, the cause Of his death
viii be another mystery, although one
theory, that Of suicide would appear
reasonable

Resembles Leon Ling.

The body was discovered by Clinton
w. Bell, a resident of Harlem, who was
out on the river in a motor boat with
a young woman. officers were imme-
diately dispatched to the scene and the
body was taken TO a mOrgUe in the
Bronx, where the examination was be-
gun. IN salient features there was
marked resemblance between the dead
Chinaman and the official descriptions
of the missing Leon Lig. The teeth
were good. as were Icons. the height
was about five feet four inches, which
was Icons height, and the weight 125
pounds. which was about the figure at
which Leon tipped the scales when he
disappeared. The age of the dead mad
appeared to be about p or 80 years
Icons age was given out by the police
as 80. The coroner was unable tonight
to arrive at any conclusion as to how
the Chinaman met his death.
