Number of Dead
 ROME, Jan. l6.-Fear is felt thru out the earthquake devastated dis trict that additional shocks may add to the work of destruction.
 According to a report brought to Rome by refugees, a basis for this anxiety is found in a dispatch from Sora, which says another strong earthquake occurred there last night demollshins the walls of partly ruin ed buildings, and menacing suryiv- ors and those engaged in rescue work
 Scant reports of the death and damage in the more remote places which suffered in the disaster have been received at the capital. lnfor- nation from larger places is still in. complete but there is no reason to doubt that when the death roll is made up it win contain fully thirty thousand names Probably twice that number are injured.
 The places which apparently suf fered most were Avezzano with about 10000 Killed. Pescina with 5000, Ce. land with 4OOO, Cenchio with 2,4OO. Marsi with 1000. Daterno with LOGO. Sanbeuno with $50 and Fralturo with 900. lt is reported that Rassa Dalbe lost one-eighth of her popula- ton while PescasseroTi was com. pletely buried
 In the devastated area there are scores of hamlets where probably only small portion of the popula- ton escaped The same Is believed to be true in the rural districts All Italy has turned its attention to the work of rescue and relief. Thou sands Of soldiers and volunteers are digging franucally in the ruins in a hope they may release few who are still alive Hundreds of bodies are being recovered, but first attention is being given where 1t is believed there is a possibility the occupants of ruined dwellings may not yet have perished.
 Vigorous efforts are being made by the authorities to dispatch doctors, nurses medicines and food 10 the ruined cities and villages. Criticism has been voiced because of the delay in sending medicine to some places destroyed but it is pointed out that difficulty of transportation has made greater speed impossible
 The injured are being cared for in makesf@ft hospitals established in the ruined towns or in hospitals in Rome and other cities. Trains filled with survivors are arriving constant ly and refugees are being given the best of care Large sums are being subscribed for the relief of the suf- fering and Pope Benedict is one of the large contributors
 King Victor Emmanuel has re- turned to town after visiting many places in the earthquake zone where he directed the work of rescue and personally distributed relief
 Pitiful scenes were enacted at the railroad stations as the train loads of injured arrived Children seemed beside themselves with terror.
 First succor arrived from Maglia- no Di Marsi forty-eight hours after the disaster. A local doctor who es- capped was almost distracted because of his lack of medicine.
 "It were better had ! died myself" the physician exclaimed to cores pohdent. "I cannot bear to see peo- pie expire simply because ! have no means of helping them. My mother and sister died only because had no medicine to treat them" IIe add ed that he had been compelled to car ry the bodies of his mother and sis ter on his shoulders to cemetery and bury them himself
 Advlces from Frosinone, twenty miles from Sora, say that the walls Of houses are SO badly cracked that occupants fear to remain indoors and spend the nighte in the opon air brayiug the cold weather rather thsu risk the danger Of being buried in the ruins of dwellings
