MANY LIVES ARE
REPORTED LOST
Hurricane Raging on the ISL
and Of Cuba.
CASABLANCA IS FLOODED

From Havana Compelled to Take
Refuge in the HiIls-Wire Communi-
cation With the Interior Interrupted
and Conditions There Are Unknown.
Havana, Oct. 18.-The cyclone that
struck the island Sunday is increasing.
It's velocity is appalling. Beyond
doubt it is more serious than the hur-
ricane of 1906, which cost many lives
and damage to the amount of millions
of dollars.
The sea before noon had swept the
customshouse sheds for distance of
half mile and was carrying off mer-
cnandise valued at hundreds of thou
sands of dollars.
The gale unroofed the main customs
house warehouse and the contents of
the building were drenched. This
building contains the most valuable
goods in the harbor.
The coal hoist of the Havana Coal
company at Casablanca, across the
harbor and a mile from Moro CASTLE
has been wrecked.
Casablanca is flooded and the resi-
dents are taking refuge in the hills
behind the town. A number of sailing
craft are dragging their anchors and
are in imminent danger of being blown
out to sea.
The dredge which has been working
alongside the battleship Maine broke
from her moorings and has been car
ried out to sea. The dredge has on
board the foremost, chains and other
relics from the American warship.
All communication with outside
ports has been hopelessly severed.
The national observatory reports
that the disturbance is only beginning
and will last probably for twenty
hours.
No News From the Outside.
Wire communication with the inter-
ior is cut off and the situation outside
this city is in doubt. The town of
BatabanO is said to be under water to
depth of many feet. A large number
of lives have been lost there, accord
ing to reports.
A report from Regla, across the har.
Dor, says many persons have been
killed there.
1t is rumored that great number
of sailors and longshoremen have been
drowned in the harbor. 1t is probable
the most fatalities and the greatest
monetary damage has been done in
Pinar del Rio, where the destruction
of Thursday and Friday has been add
ed to greatly, it is believed. The su.
gar cane crop is thought to have suf.
fered severely.
The gale came from the south south.
west with terrible violence. Rain fell
in torrents throughout the night, but
let up somewhat at daybreak, though
the wind held as strong as ever.
All traffic in this city and in the har-
Dor is suspended. Scores of lighters
and other small craft have been
wrecked.
All vessels in the port are double
anchored. The steamers are under
steam The Ward line steamer Sara
toga, which was due to sail on Satur-
day, remained stormbound.

Figures of the ScIlaoI Census
Marshal Point Direct to
Race Suicide

Race suicide in particularly
marked degree has settled upon San
Francisco. according to the report of
w. d. Scurlock, chief census marshal
for the board of education, made at
the regular meeting of the board yes
terday. the figures showing a decrease
of 1926 school children from that of
last year. In explaining the falling
off Scurlock quotes Captain Baldwin.
chief of the federal census bureau, in
saying that .'the fault with San Fran,
cisco lies in the fact that there are
too many married people without
children"
+ Captain Baldwin states" reads the
report that there are also too many
married people with only one child
and that there are too many old bache-
lors. His contentious are absolutely
proved by. the school census. 1t shows
that in the city of San Francisco there
average of little over two children
to a family; that is, counting as chill
dren all under II years of age. Furth-
ermore there is only one district in
the city which holds as high an aver
age as two and half children to the
family, while in not one of the Is as
sembly districts will there be found
three children to family"
The school census in detail shows
that in the Is assembly districts there
are 74,729 school children between the
ages of and>17 years. OF this num-
ber 36.937 are boys and 1856 girls.
There are 46,766 families in the Is dis
tricts, the largest number of families
being in the thirty third, which has
1852, and the smallest in the twenty
ninth, which has 2S5
According to the report there are SO
negro children in the city schools and
LIS Asiatics. The total number of
children in the city under II years of
age is given as 100,1sS, of which a5.454
are under years of age and 3,257 of
foreign birth. The census shows also
that 11,045 have attended private
schools and 1885 have not attended
any.
An encouraging feature of the re-
port is the fact that out of the large
number of children but 6S were deaf.
The school census last year showed
that ss,o54 were attending the schools,
as against 74,729 in attendance this
year, being a decrease of 1925. While
the school authorities expected a de-
crease it was hoped that it would not
number 5000. but the census exceeded
their worst fears.

EDUCATION BOARD
MADE DEFENDANT
Student Suspended for Refusing
to Abandon Sorority In
yOkeS Mandate Process

Through her sister. Rz.h Bradford.
Doris Bradford yesterday filed suit
against the board of education to force
that body to reinstate her in the girls
high school, from which institution she
was suspended for refusing to resign
from the Omega Nu sorority At the
time of her suspension. April 27, an
edict was passed by the educators of
the city barring all high school frater-
mites and sororities from the depart
ment. To effect this. which is made a
duty of the department of education in
all California cities. designations were
demanded of all students belonging to
secret societies
A formal demand was made by Miss
Bradford May to be reinstated. When
her resignation from her sorority was
demanded as a condition to reinstate-
ment, she declined to reregister and
declared her intention to file suit to
test the state law.
The action. which was placed on file
yesterday by Miss Bradford's attorneys,
Weinman. Wood & Cunha. which firm
is also counsel for the interfraternity
council, will establish the rights OF all
sororities and fraternities under the
new law which forced them from the
secondary schools. Miss Bradford's po-
sition before the school authorities is
also occupied by Bradford Parrish.
Clayton Dinmore and Van Dyke Johns,
all of whom left school rather than
submit to the ruling of the legislature.
Owing to the fact that Miss Brad
ford is under age, her sister Ruth will
act as her guardian and take the wit
ness stand in defense of the conten-
tions made in the complaint. The petit
ton asks that the board of education
be made to show cause why the gf1f
should not be allowed to register at
the girls high school. The young plain
tiff is the daughter of Wallace Brad
ford of 3673 Sacramento street.
