Seven Divisions of New
Army Comprise Little
More Than One of Old

Washing ton. Sept. 1.-THE seven
regular divisions which the War De-
partment plans to maintain at full
strength to-day comprise only 31.473
officers and men. or but little more
than the strength of one division. The
First Division. because of its parade
here tomorrow, has been kept as
near intact as possible and now in
cludes 1900 men including temporary
personnel. but the other six divisions
average around $500 officers and men
each.
On September 9, the Army numbered
less than one-tenth of its peak in
Europe. The remainder were in this
country or enroute home. 49,
designations of officers in the reg
ular establishment continue to be filed
in numbers which cause officials un-
disguised concern. Since August / st,
397 designations have been accepted,
of whom 40 per cent. were in the
grade of first lieutenant Better op-
portunities in civil life and feeling
that advancement in the Army will
be slow in times of peace are be-
lieved to be the reasons for the ma
jority of designations.

Sinton, Texas. Sept. 10
Seventy bodies of flood victims.
mutilated beyond recognition,
have been recovered at Sinton,
the relief headquarters for the
entire surrounding bay shore
territory.
The count so far shows that
40 were found at Westport, p
at Whitepoint, four or five be-
low Odem and few at Port
land No one was killed at Sim
ton. but property damage was
high. Bodies are being held at

Corpus Christi. Texas, Sept. 16.-
With troops patrolling the main
streets and relief trains headed this
way from many parts OF the State,
Corpus Christi to-day began slowly
emerging from the wreckage caused
by the gulf hurricane which struck
the city early Sunday, bringing
death TO an unknown number OF
persons and doing property damage
OF millions.
1t was impossible this morning to
get anything like a correct estimate
OF the fatalities. In the city proper,
the death list was placed by some
officials at between fifteen and twen-
ty-fiVe, but that was regarded by
many as far too conservative. In
some quarters it was said the num-
ha,. ~ ;,,s,
5000 Homeless
One report in circulation to-day
but as yet unconfrmed was that 120
bodies, most of them recognized as
residents OF Corpus Christi, had
been taken from a reef near Port
land on Nueces Bay, upon which
Corpus Christi is situated.
More than 5000 persons were
made homeless. However, with the
coming of relief trains, II was eN-
pected that by night most of these
would be taken care of.
Considerable anxiety was express
ed regarding the fate of the launch
Waldo with fifteen persons on board
which left Corpus Christi Saturday
afternoon on a fishing excursion.
Since the storm no word has been
received from the party, which in
cludes four women.
Tidal Wave Sweeps Town
Fears are entertained that heavy
casualty list will be reported from
surrounding towns. several of which
were directly in the path OF the
storm.
The storm sent a tidal wave ten
feet high over the business and
north beach districts of the city.
At the height of the tidal wave
practically the entire business Sec
ton was partly submerged. The wa
ter was about four feet deep in the
lobby of the Nueces Hotel and every
business house between the bluff
and the bay was under water from
eight to ten feet. House boats fish
ing craft and wreckage of every con-
ceiva BILE character were piled in the
streets by the waters.
Military rule was invoked yester-
day and no one was allowed to enter
the wrecked portions of tho city. All
foodstuffs that had escaped damage
by water were sold under direction
OF city officials, one days rations be-
ing allowed to the customer.
The city was in darknes last
night.
From fifteen to twenty-five per-
sons are known to be dead, approx
