1t is now thought probable that hun.
dreds of others were swept away by
the raging torrent. the great confusion
making accurate figures unavailable.
Practically every building destroyed
by water and fire burning at several
points.
Physicians. nurses and supplies be-
ing rushed from surrounding towns
over the mountains to Austin.

Gov. Tener has ordered state health

Many of the bodies are so mangled
that recognition Is impossible.
The survivors are in . frenzy.
There Is no organization, the town
being dazed by the force Of the calam-
ity. which came without . moments
warning.
Hundreds Of men, women and child
rem are searching through the ruins Of
the village for their families and
friends.
Fire broke out from broken gas
pipes almost before the flood had
passed.
Chaos reigned from the moment the
mighty wall Of water tore through the
town, and there was no relief until
help came from the surrounding
towns.
It is estimated that a thousand
buildings have been torn from their
foundations and crushed in the flood,
or have been destroyed by fire. The
water made its way through the busi-
ness section and left only four build
ings standing in Austin.
The valley Of Freeman's run is mar
row and the town was built along its
banks.
There was no one to attempt to
stop the fire and it was allowed to
burn itself out, the survivors Of the
flood standing idly on the hillsides.
stunned beyond the power to act.
A feeble effort was made in the
lower part of the town, where the
flood soon spent its force, to save
property and lives, but it was sporadic.
The full force of the catastrophe could
be seen better from that point perhaps
than from any others and all efforts
were abandoned.
The scene in the Village is appalling.
Here and there can be seen the light
Of some torch or lantern. as dis
tracted father searches along the bank
tor some evidence of his family and
home. Men who day ago were
among the most level-headed in the
community, know not what to do.

MISSIONARIES ARE IN SESSION.
-Four Hundred Gather in Milwaukee to
Hear Reports.

Milwaukee, Oct. missionaries,
congregational ministers and laymen
to the number of 400 are in attendance
at the tenth annual meeting of the
American board OF commissioners for
foreign missions, which opened four
day convention today. The ministers
and laymen came from as far as Maine
and Hawaii to hear reports of the
years work, to listen to twenty-five of
the fifty or more missionaries home on
furlough and to the addresses of lead
ers in the work.
Among the prominent missionaries
present are the veterans, DR. J. X
Greene of Constantinople, who for
nearly so years has watched the dra-
matte events of Turkish history, and
DR.. Chauncey Goodrich, who has seen
a like term at Picking, China.
The report of the treasurer, Frank
H. Wiggin, announced at the opening
session, showed the total current ex-
penditures of the board for the year
to have been $1,O3O.604, against total
receipts of $1,032,O25.
The report mentions the receipt of
million dollar gift to the board as a
memorial to D. Willis James by his
family, the fund to be known as the
D. Willis James foundation. Another
gift amounting to 100000 was re-
ceived from DR.. D. K Pearson for the
higher educational endowment
