WELED THE WORLD
Americans Have Been Foremost in
Providing Aid for Sufferers
From Earthquake.
OFFICIAL RECOGNITION TAKEN
Work Done BY italian Government
Defended by Minister-Wonders
Accomplished.

Washington, Jan. S.-Contributions
1.-THE relief of Italian earthquake suf-
ferers which have reached the Red
Cross today bring the total amount re-
ceived from all sources up to over
s6Oo0oO.
Deputies i'm Session.
Rome, Jan. S.-The Italian chamber
of deputies opened today in extraor-
binary session to adopt such legisla
tive measures as are necessary to re-
lieve the distress and make good the
damage in the earthquake district.
Speaking yesterday, Premier Giolitti
summarized the work accomplished by
the government and said that every
thing possible had been done to help
the sufferers.
1T would take much time to de-
scribe all the measures adopted by the
government. Some of the criticisms
of our efforts have been unfair. 1t is
impossible on an occasion like this to
prevent some confusion, to reduce the
time actually necessary for the trans
portation of supplies, or to pour into
the devastated district only so many
workers as can be usefully employed.
Indeed, Italy should be satisfied and
proud of the power OF organization
shown under such terrifying circum.
stances by the army and the navy and
private individuals.
THE rescuers during the first week
accomplished prodigies of endurance
They saved $4,000 people, some wound
ed and others uninjured, from the
ruins At the same time all the sur
vivors. the total running up into the
tens of thousands, have been moved
away, nourished. clothed and housed
all at the expense of the government
There are no survivors at Messina to-
day excepting a small number being
or on board emigrant vessels placed
at their disposal to convey them to a
point near Syracuse.
ships Provisioned for Month.
These last refugees can live for one
month with the provisions on board
the vessels transporting them.
"All this work has required organ
ization and the utmost effort. / alone
have received and answered 1000 tel
egrams day.
"The prompt cooperation of foreign
aid added much to the rapidity and
thoroughness Of the relief work, and
in this respect Americans stand first
Our gratitude to the United States will
endure forever"

More than e,000,0 900 Pounds
Increase of Metal on Hand.

The monthly report OF the Copper Pro-
dueers Association for October, issued yes
terday. was disappointing 10 the trade as.
instead OF the hoped for decrease In stocks.

The total stocks on November / according
TO the report. were l53. .s2s pounds. as
against iSl.472.772 pounds on October l.
The production for the month was the
highest on record. ia. .65T. .T0s pounds. and
the deliveries were 10. .620. $50 pounds, an in
crease OF %. iS7. .s23 pounds over the deliveries
OF the preceding month. An encouraging
feature OF the report. notwithstanding the
expansion In stocks. was the increase
shown In domestic deliveries. which amount
ed 10 l4.zs4.4d2 pounds over the September
hgures. The total. es.Sss. SIT pounds. was
also the largest OF all months, with the ex-
eeption Of last July. since the records have
been kept
me movement OF copper out OF the coun-
Try was also satisfactory. showing an in
crease or 6.lS,id pounds over September.
heaVy sales OF the metal have been report
ed since the first OF this month. and II Is
believed IN the trade that the next report
or the association Will show a substantial
decrease In the stocks OF metal on hand
