Loss OF LIFE 10000
RESULT OF GREAT EARTHQUAKE
IN CENTRAL-AND SOUTHERN
PART OF ITALY.
1000 KILLED AT AvEZZAN0
Entire City Leveled to Ground-in-
jured Taken to Rome-Nearly
100 Towns Wrecked-President
Asks if Aid is Needed.

Rome.-From $4,000 to $4,000 still
remain the unofficial estimate of the
casualties resulting from the earth
quake which rocked southern and GEN.
trail Italy January Is.
The amount of damage done can not
yet be determined from the meager
descriptions of the catastrophe that
have reached Rome. Such details as
have come through leave no doubt,
however, that nearly 100 towns and vii
lagos have been demolished or part
ly wrecked, and that great loss of life
resulted.
Thousands of persons have lain for
days beneath crumbled buildings
throughout the earthquake zone. Some
are dead, others are livine. Many have
been removed from the wTeckage and
brought to Rome hospitals for treat
ment or are being cared for in their
home towns in temporary structures
presided over by physicians and
nurses rushed from the capital and
other cities in Italy.
1t is believed many of those caught
in the wreckage we've o injured, but
persisted from cold and. hunger or were
incinerated in fires which broke out
amid the ruins. The number burned
probably was largest at Avezzano and
Magliano-di-M arsi, where fires started
and there was no water to quench
them.
Cities Suffering Most.
The places which apparently suf-
fered most were Avezzano, with about
10000 killed; Pescini, 5000; Celano,
1000; Cenchio, 2400; Marsi, 1000; De-
terno, 1000; San Belino, $50, and Fral-
turo, 200. 1t is reported hat Rassa
Fable lost one-eighth of it's popula-
ton, while Peseasseroli was complete
ly buried.
Avezzano apparently suffered most
from the disaster. Ten thousand per-
sons in that district are said to have
persisted and the entire town has been
leveled.
Sora and Pescini each has 1000
dead, while the fatalities at Giosimarsi
reached $500 and at San Benedetto
5000. Numerous other toxins report a
death roll running from 10 to more
than 1000.
Our Red Cross to Send $4,000.
Washington.-The American Red
Cross has decided to cable $40, 900 i'm
mediately to the Italian Red Cross,
and asked President Wilson, as head
of the organization, to issue an appeal
of the United States for funds to aid
the earthquake sufferers.
President Wilson has telegraphed
King Victor Emmanuel of Italy ex-
pressing sympathy for the Italian peo-
pie and asking if the United States
could be of any assistance.
Buried Under Ruins.
Avezzano, via Rome.-Twelve thou
sand bodies, it is semi-officially esti-
mated, are buried under the fallen
walls of this earthquake-ruined city.
Rescuers believe there still are many
living beneath the tons of debris, and
desperate efforts are being made to
rescue them.
