MANY FOREIGNERS
VICTIMS OF QUAKE

81 United Press Leased Special Wire.
ROME, Jan. 2.-Church authorities
at Messna reported 10 the Pope to-day
their fear that a number Of Americans
are IN the ruins Of that city.
The Pope has inumated that he wishes
Archbishop ireland. of st. Paul. who is
now IN Europe, TO go to the scene to
help clear up the doubt concerning the
fate of Americans. The archbishop Will
doubtless comply with the request.
The messages received by the Pope con-
cerning the safety OF Americans and other
foreigners differ materially from the re-
assuring reports made TO the government
authorities.
The number OF foreign victims is likely
70 be materially increased by the probable
loss OF a large passenger steamer which
was last seen in the Strait Of Messina,
a short time before the initial shock. No
trace Of the vessel has been found since.
No report has yet been received from
Major Lands the American military at
tache who was senc with two others, TO
the scene by Ambassador Griscom.
The delay I'm news from him, however.
Is natural owing to the great congestion
OF the telegraph service. which the gov
ernment is mS opolizing. Private mes
sages Of only the utmost necessity arc
permitted to be sent out.
