HOUSTON, Texas, July 23-W With
the center of interest shifted from
Galveston, where repetition of the
great storm of 1900 was threatened,
the lower coast regions, cut off TWEEN
ty-four hours from the outside world
by broken wires, are giving up a
greater life loss and property damage
than last returns from Galveston,
which greatly minimized first reports.
Along the south coast, many miles
inward, the loss of life may total
score, while the property loss will run
into the hundreds Of thousands. Com
munication with the stricken district
yet is incomplete, but struggling wires
carry broken reports of the devastion
wrought by the hurricane. which is
said by many to have been worse
in velocity than the storm of 1900.
Bay City seems to have been in the
vortex of the storm, although the life
loss was small, an infant of NJ M.
Galloway being crushed under falling
walls. The damage to the town will
total so per cent and in figures
$4,000
No house in the city escaped dam
age and in the business section half
of the buildings were razed. Martial
law has been proclaimed and the peo-
pie are setting themselves to the task
of rebuilding, handicapped by lack
of labor and a dearth of carpenters.
The city is in darkness electric wires
lying in tangled masses in the streets
and the waterworks has been de.
molished, which cuts off the city's
supply.
At Bay Shore one is reported dead,
with heavy property damage, and at
Velasco, a few miles away, but three
buildings were left standing. There
the water is reported waist deep and
boats, secured from the Colorado Riv-
er, are being used for transportation
and the rescue of people from trees.

OLD ACE PENSIONS
FOR employees

The word pension i'm the United
states ordinarily suggests the soldier.
The first budget of the nation under
the constitution contained provision
for soldiers of the revolutionary war
The fiscal year closing last June saw
Sl53, 900 600 spent for pensions on ac-
count of service u the wars of the re-
public. From first TO last the outlay
for this purpose has been approXi-
mately $1,000, 100000 So far as the
soldiers are concerned, they have re-
ceived generous treatment from an APP
preciative government
In the matter of old age pensions as
general proposition, however the
United States has Jagged behind the
other aggressive nations Of the world,
There have been provisions for depen-
dents In the form OF poorhouses and
other institutions where charity has
been the moving thought But there
has not been that lWely interest in
the subject that has been manifested
on other continents, possibly because
the conditions of life here have been
essentially different Not much has
been done from the point of view Of
recognition of faithfulness Of service
as worthy OF additional cash consid-
Grafton other than that shown in the
gradation of wages and salaries,
Now and then firm has distributed
a percentage of profits at the Christ
mas season, Occasionally an employ
er, In his will, has made provision
for those who have served him with
fidelity for years With increasing
1 frequency corporations and firms are
/ providing pension plans which involve
, the payment by employees of a small
amount at regular periods, Pensions
for policemen, hremen, teachers, are
not uncommon,
The recently announced plan Of But
