They Were Under Ruins For Nine- teen Days--The Official Esti- mate of the Catastrophe at Messina--A Good Number of Arrests Made. ; Messina, Jan. 18.--A thrilling rescue was effected, on Saturday, when, after having been buried for over nineteen days under the ruins of their home, three children of Nicolo Minissoli, were saved, Francesco Minissoli, a. boy aged nine years, managed to crawl out alone by burrowing from the ruins and through a hole which seem- ed too narrow for even a cat to pass through, His two sisters who had been buried with him, then were res- cued by soldiers. On the morning of the earthquake, he said, he saw his mother A ed to death. under the beams of the ceiling of their home. Francesco and his two sisters fled to the next room, but ina few minutes they were precipitated to the cellar. In absolute darkness, holding each other's hands, and imploring the pro- tection of the Madonna, the' children groped about the cellar and found a Jaw onions and some wine, water and oil. This wonderful rescue is taken as an indication of the necessity to con- tinde the work of excavation, and as a further argument to this end the fact is. recfiiled that after the earth- quake of 1783 persons were unearthed alive afterfaving been buried for fif- ty days. Ped =} Counting The Dead. Messina, Jan. 18.--An official esti- mate of the dead in Messina as a re- sult of the catastrophe of December 28th, made by Stuart K. Lupton, the United States vice-consul, on behalf of the American embassy at Rome, © places the number . at 90,000. Mr. Lupton estimates also that there are to-day still 10,000 people in the city. The work of getting information con- cerning individuals who were in Mes- sina at the time of the earthquake is extremely difficult, as there are un- doubtedly still tend of thousands un- der the ruins and other tens of thou sands ~ have scattered themselves throughout Sicily and the peninsula. The people still in Messina are camp: ing out in the outskirts and it has been quite impossible to take any census of them. Fs { Ha Eighty-Two Arrested.

Howard Folger Says the Ramona Will Be Used For Charter and the New Craft Will Do the Club Ramble. , | Howard Folger, manager of the Thousand Island Steamboat company, while in Watertown, N.Y., last: week, stated that as a representative of the company he was at present negotia- ting for a large yacht, which will be added to the fleet of the Thousand Island Steamboat company this com- ing season. Mr. Folger was very optimistic that the deal would go through. According to Mr. Folger's plans the Ramona would be taken off from the club ramble and placed for charter. The proposed new yacht is one' built but a year or two ago and has a| capatity of about 225, yet not too | large to make the intricate channels] taken by the Ramona. Mr. Folger believes that the com- ing season will be a good one. To strengthen hig belief he says that he has already had a large booking fo excursion parties and that only yes- terday Mr. Crossmon iniormed him that more than the usual number of | applications had been received from Xcurs sis. excursionists - Reported Sale. It is reported that the steamyacht Castanet, of the Visger line, was sold at Alexandria Bay to a Mr. Miller. The boat is now at Shipman"s Point in Canadian waters.

It was impossible {o carry the wounded around the wreck, and this fact delayed the relief to passengers for move than an hour. The passenger train is said to have been going at a high rale of speed when it reached the siding at Dotsero. It is supposed that the engineer of the passtnger train thought the freight had passed the siding, and. was going {oo rapidly to stop his train when he saw, tho danger. "The freight was in the act of taking the siding on orders to allow the passenger train to pass, but had only placed hali its train up- on the side-track when the passenger train came tearing along and plunged into it. It was from the chair car that the dead were taken, and twenty bodies have been recovered thus far, The dead : Gus Olsen, engineer of the pas- songer train, Salida; forty-nine passen- gers, names unknown. Known injured : Sigel Olsen, engi- nece on freight train, badly injured may die; J. I. Jeffrey, engineer on freight engine, badly injured, may die; thirty passengers, names unknown. All the sleoping cars remained on the track- and none of the passengers in them were injured. Reports indicate that the wreck is most complete as far as the forward cars of the passenger train and the engines of both the freight, which was a double-header, and the passenger trains, are concerned. : I'he three monster mountain locomo tives are standing on end, a mass of wisted and broken iron, while the smoker, the chair car and the for- ward tourist car of the passenger train are cither complete wrocks or badly smashed. The ¢hair car, in whicl most of the killéd were riding, is cut in twain and the tourist car teles coped. The latter is lying overturned alongside the track, while the chair car iy across the right-of-way. The Pullmans remain on the track and are undamaged. " The occupants of the Pullmane per- formed valiant service in caring for dead and injured, and worked throughout the night at this task. According to information received, the wreck was caused by the failure of Enginecr Gus Olsen, of the passenger train, to Gorrcetly read the time indi- cated by his watch. When nearing Dotsero, Olsen looked at his watch and read the time to be 0:45 p.m. It was 9:50. Thinking he had plenty of time to make the next siding below Dotscro, he pulled the throttle of his engine wide open and was making forty-five miles an hour on a down grade whon he collided with the freight train, which was la- boriously climbing up the hill under a full head of steam of two big engines. When the passenger train did . not stop at Dotsero, Conductor McCurry jumped to tha bell cord and signaled to the engincer to stop the train, but it was then too late to avoid the dis to- | lastor and the two trains crashed | gether. The wreckage caught fire immediate- ly after the collision, and a holocaust was averted by those passengers who were not killed or seriously injured and members of the train crews, who secured shovels and boards and put out the blaze with snow, which is 4 tablished a close friendly feeling with both the British and Maltese.

SOLVING THE PROBLEM ROYAL COMMISSION AD- VISES AFFORESTATION. 9,000,000 Acres Available--~Recom- mends Purchase of Land Under Act--Would - Employ 36,000 Men--Financed By a Loan. London, Jan. 18.~The royal com- mission which has been for some time experiments" in afioresta- Britain to meet the employment difficulty, has reported unanimously in its favor, and re- commends the appointment of special commissions with edthpulsory power to purchase land on the precedent of the "Small Holdings Act" of 1907, subject to certain specified reserva- tions. The report asserts that the available for afforestation in Great Britain is 9,000,000 acres, namely, 6,- 000,000 in Scotland, 2,500,000 in Eng- land and 500,000 in Ireland. It adds that 150,000 acres might he afforested annually, giving direct temporary em- ployment to 18,000 men in the winter mouths, and indirect employment to nearly 18,000 more, and permanent direct employment to 9,000 when the whole area is planted. The scheme calls for the expenditure of £2,000, 000, and as afforestation represents a productive investment it should be financed as a loan, the interest on which should be met by taxation. The commission estimates there would be a deficit of £90,000 the first year, rising progressively to £3321 - 250 in the fortieth year, after which the forests would be self-supporting. After eight years the net revenge otight to be £17,500,000, at pre- gent prices, but a great rise Jn prices is to be expected, with a ecorrespond- ing profit to the state. a considering tion in Great area Swallow, of St. John's, Nfld, was wrocked off the Long Island shore and her crew five or six men perished.

Picton, Jan. 18.-- "Co-operation" was the theme that brought some 200 farmers to town on Saturday with the mercury at ten below zero, and kept them interested in the town hall whose interior temperature was keeping even with Jack Frost out of doors. Mr. Macdonald, of Glasgow, Seotland, an erstwhile Torontonian, was the speaker, and he told of the workings of co-operative concerns in England and Scotland, where the peo ple benefit by the purchase of needful commodities of life in bulk, and thus cut out the profits of middlemen, turning them to their own good. He told of the beginnings of the move ment in Toronto which he, with his confederates, aim to make a ceutral depot of distribution, and he said that to-day (Monday) a co-operative bakery was to start for the first in Toronto. It was pointed out that not only could people buy, but that far- mers could sell their produce to ad vantage under this system, and being members they came in for. declared dividends.
