CONGRESS VOTES
$8OO,OOO RELIEF TO
ITALY'S SUFFERING

Washington, Jan. Upon recon-
vening of congress after the holiday
recess the first business transacted was
the appropriation of $500, 600 from the
United States treasury for the relief of
Italian sufferers. This course was rec
commended by the president in brief
message. After the reading of the
message the members of the house
committee on appropriations at once
were called to the speakers desk for a
conference, with the idea in view OF
obviating the reference of the matter
to the committee. Thereupon Mr..
Bingham, of Pennsylvania, secured
unanimous consent for the immediate
consideration Of the following resolu-
tion for relief in accordance with the
presidents message, and it was adopt
cd amid great applause:
''That to enable the president of the
United States to procure and distribute
among the suffering and destitute peo-
pie of Itlay such provisions, clothing,
medicines and other necessary articles
and to take such other steps as he
should deem advisable, for the purpose
of rescuing and succoring the people
who are in peril and threatened with
starvation, the sum of $500, 600 is here
by appropriated out of any moneys not
otherwise appropriated
''In the execution of this act the
president is requested to obtain the ap-
prevail Of the Italian government and
hereby is authorized to employ any
vessels of the United States navy and
to charter and employ any other suita-
BILE steamhipss or vessels"
The senate adopted a similar resolu-
ton, after which the act was engrossed
and sent to the president for his ap-
prevail.

MAY NEVER

LOSS OF LIFE IN ITALIAN
DISASTER ESTIMATED
MUCH HIGHER
Latest Figures Place Total Near
3OO,OOO-Bad Weather Adds
to Calamity Produced by Trem-
blor and Flames--All Nations
Hold Out Helping Hands.

Worse than war and pestilence COM
bined, the ravages of the terrible earth
quakes in Italy and Sicily are begin
ming to become known to their fullest
extent Appalling are the figures now
being gathered on the loss of life and
property, but it will be fully week
before any approximate statement can
be given as to the number who have
lost their lives. London dispatches
from Messina tell of awful suffering
and place the number of those dead at
100000. The scope of the quake, on
account of the great calamity at Mes
sina and nearby places. which has alb
sorbed interest, has not been fully as
certained. A wireless message from
the Strait of Messina states that the
Lipari islands have disappeared. They
were inhabited by $500 persons, and
all have persisted. London dispatches
say nearly every nation has volun-
teered help to the stricken inhabitants
of Italy and Sicily.
