Monterey, Mexico, Aug. 31.-With
800 bodies recovered and buried in
Monterey up to nightfall, 1000 is now
the estimate of the city authorities of
those who lost their lives throughout
the valley of the Santa Catalina river.
The number Of homeless, many of them
destitute, is placed between Is, 900 and
10000.
The Santa Catalina river at Monterey
has subsidized sufficiently to permit a
passage into the district lying to the
southwark. People who had been saw
ed from the flood of Saturday morning
had been without food until today,
when they were supplied with a small
amount of bread and beans.
Once on the south side of the river,
evidences of the terrible destruction
wrought by the food were seen on
every hand. Five blocks of the dis
trict were as though they had never
existed and in the remaining portion
bodies were being taken from the ruins
and inferred by party of gendarmes
sent across for the purpose.
At A O'Clock 400 bodies had been re-
covered and buried on the hillside south
of Santa Luisio. The same number of
bodies were inferred yesterday.
Thus far no Americans have been re-
ported lost. Reports from down the
river say many bodies have been recov-
cred, but there are many that will new
er be found. The bed of the river is
filled with sand. The authorities are
doing all in their power and the gov
eminent has sent $50, 600 for the relief
of the sufferers. Contributions have
been received from San Antonio and
New York firms who have agencies in
this city.
Many houses have fallen from the
effects of the continuous rains which
have occurred during the ~ hours end
ing at II o'clock Sunday. During this
time 81 y inches of rain fell in Monte
rey and up to the Santa Catalina can
yon.
One of the buildings destroyed was
the San Francisco church, which was
built in 1852. The barracks of the rur-
ales was washed away and all military
equipment was lost.
