PLAGUE AND HUNGER
MORE HORRORS HAVE COME TO THE SUFFERERS OF ITALY
 AND SICILY.
LATE ESTIMATES PLACE DEAD AT ll5,oOO
Thousands of Hungry People Fight for eread-Thirty Years Will Be Re quired to Replace Damage-oniy Few of Palmi's 14,oo0 Alive-Priests Do Good Work.

Rome. Jan. 1.--To the terrifying spectacle of death caused by Mondays earthquake has now been added the horrors of starvation and the fear of spread of pestilence.
 In the ruins of Messina, Reggie and scores of smaller towns in Sicily and Calabria lie the bodies of the dead which 1t has been impossible to extri- cate, while everywhere thousands of hungry and homeless persons throns the filtered thoroughfares.
 An official estimate made Thursday places the number of victims at 115,- 900. There is reason to believe that this number may be greatly exceeded.
 Words are inadequate to express the horror of the ruin and desolation that has overwhelmed Calabria and Sicily The earth's trembling and fire and water have combined to change the smiling, verdant country into des- erts. Messina exists no longer At least 30 years will be necessary to repair the ruin that natures violences have wrought there.
 As yet it has been found impossible to obtain any news of the fate of the little villages along the coast, many of which, it is believed, have been en- tirely wiped out In many cases en- tire buildings have been swept out to sea and no trace of them remains. Flourishing villages have been wiped out of existence.
 In some of the smaller towns, such as Palmi, near Monteleone, the sud denness and the completeness of the catastrophe was overwhelming. Of the 14000 inhabitants of Palmi. only few score are alive today. Wednes- day 2,300 bodies were buried in the cemetery there.
 The survivors of Palmi, reinforced by rescuers from other points, under 1 the lead of soldiers and doctors, are performing prodigies of valor. Many of them have been overcome by the awful conditions under which they are working
 The bishop of Morabito and other priests, with touching devotion and courage, have done much to preserve order by the example of calmness and self-denisl they have given the people. They are busy carrying comfort and consolation to the dying and the be reaved.

ONLY BURTON LEFT.
C. P. Taft and Foraker Withdraw
 From the Ohio Race.

Columbus, O., Jan. 1.-Theodore E. Burton of Cleveland will be the next United States senator from Ohio. sue. ceeding Senator Foraker.
 This result was made certain Wed nesday by the unexpected announce. ment of the withdrawal from the race of Charles P. Taft, the president. elects brother, quickly followed by the announcement from Senator For. aker that he. too, was out of the race.
 Mir. Taft's announcement is the re- suit of the conference held Wednes- day night between MT. Taft and Mir. Burton. Party harmony is the ground on which the Cincinnati editor bases his action Senator Foraker was not a party to the conference, and the announcement from him was even more of surprise than that of Mir. Taft. It is supposed. however, that he recognized the fact that with the Taft and Burton forces combined the election of the Cleveland man WIS a certainty.
 Senator Foraker says he is gratiiied that matters have turned out the way they have, that he himself is willing at all times to make personal self sacrifice for party unity. The with drawal of MT. Taft, he declared, cleared the situation and made his candidacy no longer necessary
