MILLION II @ VI ELESS
IN CHINA FOLLOWING
TREMENDOUS FLOODS

Washington, September 20-Nearly 1,c00,
900 people have been made homeless by
one of the greatest floods or record in that
section of China where stue American
eRed Cross already has spent $4,000 for
flood protection. and where the s9ooo9,oo0
loan for reclamation work which was
postponed by the war, was to have been
spent. Reports to the state department
today from the American consul at Nam
king said the Hwa river had inundated
an area of about 1000 square miles in
Anhui province. Appeals for aid have
been sent out for the homeless, who vir-
tually are entirely dependent on charity
as all the autumn crops were destroyed.
Today's, delayed advices described con-
ditons several weeks ago, but officials
believe there probably has been little i'm
provement. In the case of previous floods
in that district, the waters have been
held for long periods by the alluvial
soil.
The state department summed up its
dispatches on the subject following the
announcement that department has re-
ceived from the American counsel At

Chihuahua City. Mexico. September 90.
Revolutionary attacks were made upon
Guadalajara, Tampico and Vera Cruz
on September 16 simultaneously with
Villas Hidalgo day attack upon this
city, according to reports received here
today by General Trevino. No details
were received.
General Trevino today announced a
revised list of the casualties in Satur-
days engagement here. The govern
ment losses in killed and wounded he
placed at So, while the Villa casualties
he estimated at between 200 and ESQ, in
GLIDING "a prisoners taken and exc
cuted.
He asserted he had learned from cap
tives that the bandits, who are reported
to be organizing in the Sierra de la
Silla, have with them about $50 wound
ed, who have neither medical atten-
ton nor medical supplies.
Government patrols are operating ev-
erywhsre within radius of 10 miles
OF the city. While it Is not generally
believed that Villa will soon make an
other attack, orders have issued to take
every precaution, artillery having been
mounted on the hills and heavy out
posts being maintained
Statements were issued at the com
mandancia today denying border re-
ports that Villa had made a second at
tack upon the town yesterday and that
there had been defections in the garri-
son. 1t was said also that no arms or
ammunition were seized in the Hidalgo
day engagement and that the govern
ment forces captured from the bandits
a quantity of high-powered rifles and
cartridges, which apparently had been
manufactured in the United States.
The announcement was made of re-
port from Gen. Hillario Rodriguez, in
San Bartolo, Durango, saying that the
campaign against the remnants of the
Canuto Reyes in that section has been
completed and that only a small force

area estimated at 700 square miles.
THE flood extended throughout eight
districts in northern Anhui. There are
10 cities Of considerable size in these
eight districts with total population
estimated at from 100000 to 100000 peo-
pie. The total population of the flooded
region is approximately 100000.
While it is thought that comparatively
few lives were lost, crops and personal
property have been destroyed and there
are thousands of destitute people. nearly
all of whom are now objects of char
ity. The supply of foodstuffs on hand
will be inadequate to feed the people,
and practically all of the autumn crops
in the eight districts have been entirely
destroyed. Appeals for relief have come
In the great flood of 1909 nearly l.
