Death and Destruction Over whelmed Many Villages Which Nestled on Sides and at Base of the Fiery Mountain
EXTENT DISASTER
 NOT YET MEASURED
More Than Hundred Known to Have Perished-SceneS of DesOlatiOn Presented to Visitors to Stricken District
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPArcH]

CATANIA, Italy, May 9-Earth- quake last r!glr brought death and destruction to many villages near Mount Etna The number of dead up to tonight was officially given at 1:9, with about 35O injured but as yet a yarge portion of devastated terri tory has not been inspected. The affected zone extends from Zaffar- ana the highest village on Mount Etna, to Blanca Air Reale on the south, and Giarre on the north. It includes Linera, the center of the disturbance; Pisano and Santa Ven erina. In Linera alone 110 were killed and 300 injured. In the village of Bongiardo thirteen dead and twenty-seven injured have been talk en from the ruins. At Cosentini six teen were killed and many injured.
 These villages and many smaller places were practically levelled. The district presented a spectacle of des- olation, ruin and death. From the debris agoniZing cries are still to be heard. Others have asked that their injured relatives be transported to Catania.
 Automobiles which made trip through the devastated region were often forced to make d long detour owing to deep Assures across the road. Peasants rushed to meet the automobiles, imploring aid. All train service has been abandoned owing to the ,llapse of bridges, broken tracks and obstructed tunnels.
 Near the central part of disturb snce dozens of bodies were observed lying across the road. Many of them were unrecogniZable. as they were crushed. Heart -rending lamentations arose on all sides, as the injured lay in the open awaiting assistance which was being sent them.
 Where Linera stood is T mass of ruins. Three houses which did not collapse entirely are so broken as to emphasize the completeness of the disaster Tho village considted ot about 500 inhabitants, but d major ity of the people escaped because the shock occurred while the men and some of the women were still work ing in the fields. From the vine yards they saw their houses falling their homes found only wreckage with some of their people buried be heath it. This accounts for the fact that most of the victims were women and children.

by Gen. Quevedo, former Mexican federal commander, who has been ter rorizing the ranchers in northern Chi huahua. He has sent communications to other scattered heads of guerillas urging that they join him. The com munications announce he is anxious to attack Casas Grandez before the mid de of May.
 Strong representations have been made by the ranchers and cattle men to the constitutionalist officers and to the United States secretary of state asking protection against QuevedO, who has operated on both sides Of the border.
 Word has been received here that two men said to be representatives of Felix DiaZ. nephew of the former pres ident of Mexico. have reached this DOT tion of the border. and have endeavored to induce Quevedo and other gueril las, notably the remnants of the band of Maximo Castillo. to align themselves with a movement with Diaz at the head, against all existing parties ill Mexico.
 It WIS reported today to constitution alist officials that twenty-one bandits part of the band defeated last We'd nesday by Captain Castro of the con- stitutionalists. are surrounded near Palomas, Chihuahua. near the interna- tional border by troops from Palomas, Pearson and Casas Grandes.
 Four hundred constitutionalists troopers left Juarez by special train. Part of this force will detrain at Guz- man, and march overland to Palomas and the remainder will be distributed among the garrisons of the western Chihuahua towns.
 This move is said by the constitu- tionalists to indicate their determina- tion to rid the territory held by them of marauding bands.

Gettinn Ready for War

WASHINGTON. May 9.-Through- out the day the war department com pleted preparations for army move ments including endorsements for General Funston should necessity arise Twelve transports have been arranged for and men are working night and day to convert chartered merchantmen at points of authorization to accommo- date soldiers, horses, guns, supplies.
 Orders to the fourth and sixth bri gades at Texas City, the remainder of the second division to be ready to re- inforce Funston at any moment notice were given but the garrison said that no orders had yet been issued for their dispatch.
 Bryan was gratified at news received from American Consul Rodgers at Ha- vana of the action of the German steamship company in directing the re- turn to Hamburg without unloading the ammunition, reported be on board the steamships Kron Prinzessin Cecilia and Bavaria, which was about to be placed in the hands of Huerta at Puerto Mex ico. Bryan said that so far he knew this action was voluntary on the part of the steamship company
 Measuring information concerning the safety of Vice Consul John Silliman was received
 At the navy department the monitor Ozark was ordered to Tampico. The warship is of light draft capable 4f entering the Panuco river, around which the endangered oil fields are To- cated, in case of necessity. A report received from Admiral Badger on con- ditions in the oil fields in the neigh bOrhOod of Tampico is regarded as confirmatory, in some degree, of the news that reached the state department several days ago that American oil men are in danger of losing their property in Mexico because of the suspension of oil production during the long drawn out siege of Tampico. If it can be shown that the lesses are prevented from operating their wells through the fault of their own, it is certain the de- partment will see that a general claim, will be made of all the vast number of American claims against Mexico and that these concessionaries shall be full iy protected in their rights.
