Gulf Hurricane. Cause Of Nu-
merous Fatalities.
SOME LEvEEs ARE DESTROYED
Flood Menace Results From Damage
to Protective Works Along the
Lower Mississippi.

New Orleans, Oct. 2-The number
of known dead, reported dead ant
persons missing in Louisiana and
Mississippi as result of the tropica
hurricane is put at SOC in total com
piled here from many points on the
gulf coast and in the interior. Prop
erty damage is estimated at $4,000,
900.
The known death list already stands
at 1s1, with 2OS reported dead. In ad
dition there are III known missing.
While undoubtedly there has been
some duplication in tabulation of re,
ports of bodies found it is said there
are indications that the dead will not
be fewer than $50.
Property damage throughout the
storm swept territory has been enor.
nous and the destruction complete.
Relief parties returning from the del
ia section said that the rich planta-
lions in that section had been wiped
out, crops ruined, orange trees de-
stroyed, buildings demolished and
washed out to sea and that the coun-
try for miles is under water four to
fifteen feet deep.
Levees Break in Many Places.
The levees in many places have
been destroyed, adding new menace to
the inhabitants and making more diff
cult the work of rehabilitation. River
pilots expressed the opinion that it
will be impossible to reconstruct the
levees in many places.
Many people are reported maroon
ed on the tops of unchanged levees,
where they took refuge when the full
fury of the storm broke.
While no official estimate has been
obtainable Of the storm damage in
this state and along the Mississippi
coast persons familiar with the terri
tory believe that it will approximate
$12,o0O,OoO.
Relief work is progressing rapidly,
due in great part to the quick recov-
cry made here and in larger cities
from the effects of the hurricane.
Vessels left from practically every
point along the coast to visit isolated
villages, fishing settlements and
camps which were in the path Of the
