TION BY ITALIANS REPORTED
Another Message Says Attack Has
Been DeIayed-ltaiy Halts Attack OF
Prevesa After Destroying Forts and
Scattering Enemy's Ships-Blockad
Of Coast Effectual.

London, Oct. 2.-Strict Italian CEN
sorship is keeping the world in the
dark in regard to the progress OF
events in the Mediterranean.
From italy itself. from Tripoli, Tur-
key and the seas, where the Italian
Eavy is operating, conflicting reports
continue to come in.
One cablegram announced definite
that Tripoli had been bombarded s
occupied. Another said that no at =,
had been made. Only one thing Is =
tain, and that is that the ltaliar q
not attacked the town up to IN mt
Saturday, for had they done 9 leir
guns would have been beare . the
steamer Castlesarth, which LETT Trip
oil shortly before that hour and arrived
a; Malta this morning.
Prevesa Reports Conflicting.
The reports as to the situation at
Prevesa are equally conflicting. Turk
ish officials here confirm a news dis
patch saying that the fort had been de-
stroyed and 1000 troops landed, while
Italy gives an emphatic denial OF the
report, saying that the Italian govern
ment has no intention Of resorting to
acts against the territorial status OF
Turkey in Europe 1t is believed that
what actually happened was that the
Turkish vessels in the vicinity are
scattered and the forts destroyed to
prevent raids upon the Italian coast
shipping.
Will Not Attack Greece.
Europe is greatly relieved at the re-
ceipt of news that Turkey has assured
Greece that she has no intention OF at
tacking her The success OF the Italian
blockade of the Tripolitan coast and
her securing of the seas is shown In
the arrival of two captured Turkish
transports at Taranto and Sridisi
Reports Of the capture Of Turkish
torpedo boats come from several
sources. The impression prevails that
the hostilities will be, Of brief dura-
ton. 1t is believed that Turkey, find
ing herself unable to dispatch troops
to Tripoli, will accept mediation OF
Germany.

nj proposing the presidents health
Mr. Bryan said:
Lincoln is honored today by the
presence Of the highest official in the
world. The presidents position is
greater than kings. His authority is
more vast than any civilized people
would entrust to hereditary ruler and
he holds the place not by accident of
birth but by the suffrage Of his coun-
trymen. Tho in campaigns he is the
leader OF a party he is after election
the chief executive Of the nation and
his arms WELD the strength of ninety
millions of people
Lifted by voters to this position he
becomes a most exalted of our public
servants. 1t is fitting that we, a group
Of the sovereigns whom he serves,
should pya respect to him and to the
office which he holds. / ask you to rise,
fiji your glasses with the beverage upon
which the Almighty has set the seal OF
his approval and drink to the health
of President Taft and may God give
him wisdom to discharge Alright the
honor and duties upon him."

death list Of nearly 800 persons. az
many more injured and the surviving
inhabitants dazed to inaction, is the de-
struction worked Saturday evening by a
food which broke the concrete dam at
Austin. freeing a lake Ave miles long
that engineering science had held In
leash in the valley Of Free,nans Run.
The torrent Of water, carrying with it
millions Of feet of pulp logs, swept
away the buildings in its path. and. as
the structures were dashed from their
foundations, fire sprung from the brok-
en- gas connections and spread to the
buildings higher up in the valley.
The flood, repetition Of the Johns
town disaster. first destroyed Austin. a
town of 5000 population, swept its
buildings along in the current and
dashed them into the town of Costello,
short distance down the valley. Co.'S
tello before the flood had 500 inhabi-
tants. A survivor who made his way
to Austin thinks one-third Of those are
now dead and many others MANNED.
The flood was in full daylight, but
the inhabitants had relied on tho
strength OF the DAM which had held
water but a week The dam was five
miles above the town. and when the
report came that the water was run
ming over the top. many went out to
see It.
1t was while these persons watched
that the pile of cement and rock gave
way and the lake, Ave miles long, $50
feet wide and fifty feet deep, swept
down on the towns. There was no
chance to give warning, and those in
Austin and Costello were caught.
Hearing the rush Of water and the
tumbling logs it carried on its surface.
many rushed for the higher surface
and had scarcely reached safe places
before flames shot up about them.
People in their homes and in places
Of business were killed instantly or
were injured ana carried along with
the torrent until they died OF exhaus-
ton. -
Survivors See Homes Burn.
The flood left the survivors with
out means to protect themselves from
the second danger that sprang up. and
they sat on the banks Of the receding
river, daxed and powerless, to watch
their homes burn. No apparatus was
available to help them, and none could
be obtained from surrounding towns
before Austin was in ruins.
Darkness came before the surviving
people realized the extent of the de-
struction and that added to their be-
wilderment Whole families were de-
stroyed and in other instances men
and women returned to find their
homes gone. They wandered up and
down the valley, calling, and getting
no response. looked for the bodies.
Most OF the bodies could be identified
only by the clothing the force Of the
mood and the debris 1t carried had been
so great. BY the glare Of the burning
houses the survivors looked for the
bodies and helped rescue those who
had been; washed ashore or had been
pinned beneath fallen structures that
had not been entirely carried away. AS
they worked the nature of the catas-
trophe came to them and in many
cases they became disheartened. quit
work and waited for daylight. Men
who had been leaders in the commnn-
ity had no power Of direction and the
survivors had no leader to direct the
work OF rescue or OF recovering the
5hndies

rev Houses Left Standing in Austin
and Village Of Costello = Bursting
Dam Sends Down Wall Of Water and
psIuas Of Less and Heavy Timbsrs
on HsIpisss Hundreds.

Austin, Pa, Oct. with the arrival
of a carload Of coffins here this morn
ing the grimness Of the tragedy which
has practically obliterated this town
vas impressed upon the survivors and
a considerable number of workers who
TODAY besan anew their efforts to mine
deeply into the hard hills Of debris.
Twenty victims. including two at
Costello, have been placed in tenn
porary morgue 1T Odd Fellows hall,
one Of the few buildings standing on
the ruined district. The identified dead
are twelve and include ]. e. Baldwin,
father of State Senator Baldwin.
Taking Census Of Living.
The most essential matter In hand
here aside from the persistent work OF
clearing away the more accessible
ruins is the completion Of a census OF
the living Austinians.
II the death list aggregates anything
like the enormous number some have
estimated the health officials realize
that conditions demanding prompt at
tention will arise within a few days In
the ruins. The most careful and well
informed investigators. however, are
unprepared to learn that more than 200
have perished. There is indeed pos
sibility that $50 will be the total.
An Appalling Scene.
The aspect Of Austin, Costello and
the valley beyond today is as dreary
as It Is appalling. The towns are pic
lures of desolation. The valley side
hills in which they lie are still Uttered
by the shattered homes Of their people
and the remnants Of prosperous places
Of business and manufacturing plants
No reliable estimates Of the property
loss can be soon made but it is safe to
say that it win not be less than S.
100000.
