MONTEREY RUINED
BY HIGH WATER
LOSS OF LIFE IN GREAT FLOOD
WILL REACH INTO MANY
HUNDREDS.
SURVIVORS FACING STARVATION
Santa catarlna Works Out New
Channel and Menaces Entire
ToWn--FinanciaI Loss Esti-
mated to IL Millions.

Monterey, Mexico, Aug. 30.-The
uous fall of rain for the past 90 hours,
swept everything before it and hardly
q vestfge is left of the village Of
Monterey, which a few days ago
swarmed with families belonging to
the poorer classes.
1t has stopped raining at last for
the first time since last Thursday
afternoon, and some idea Of the hor-
rors Of the flood of Friday night and
Saturday can now be obtained.
1t was at first reported that 800
lives were lost in the disaster, but
1t is now know that the number
has reached 1900, and may be more.
The river has fallen considerably, and
while still high the danger now is
over.
Fully $4,000 people are homeless in
the flood district and are being cared
for by the attorney general. At noon
5000 people were given bread, coffee
and soup, at the municipal stations,
but there are many more on the
south side of the river still out Of
reach of the aid offered. The prop
erty loss is placed at $2O,0O0OOO
throughout the city.
All through the day and up to late
at night, the bodies have been taken
from the debris and ruins in the path
of the flood and over 500 have been
recovered.
The greatest loss of life occurred
Saturday morning between the hours
Of 9 and IL o'clock when the large
buildings on the south side of the
river commenced to crumble and fall.
In one school building of the south
side OF the river, 80 women and chill
dren We're drowned when the walls of
the building collapsed. This was one
of the most pathetic incidents of the
food. Two priests were with them
and while in the act of blessing them
the walls fell and the whole 80 were
swallowed up in the flood.
Watchers saw buildings loaded
with people collapse and the people
disappear in the waters. 1t was a
sight never to be forgotten. And
there is hardly an establishment in
the city that has not some story Of
the loss to employees.
The main water supply pipe from
the Estansuela reservoir was broken,
and the city is absolutely without
drinking water, and it will be several
days before the leak can be repaired.
Street car traffic has been abandoned
after two or three Intellectual attempts
to run the cars
Steps are being taken to care for
the homeless, but there are so many
that the city has not been called on
to care for any special section. Help
must be had from outside points.
Clothing, food and money are needed.
