By the Associated Press. Iiver mounting estimates of property damage and death toll emanated today from the hurricane-lashed east coast of Florida. \ property loss above the $200,000,000 mark was fixed by newspaper men after an inspection of the Miami district, and the number of dead was estimated to range from 600 to 1,300 in the Miami area and 200 at Moorehaven, 75 miles northwest of Miami. The West Indian hurricane continued its furious sweep up the Gulf of Mexico, and at 11 o'clock this morning was reported to be hammering at Pensacola. That city was isolated from out- side communication. Before the lines of communication were severed the wind was reported to have attained a 100-mile ve- locity. Trains and Airplanes Rush Aid. While fast trains and airplanes were rushing medical aid and supplies into the stricken area steps were being taken in various cities to raise relief funds for the sufferers. A\t Avon Park 56 bodies lay in an improvised morgue and nearly 200 persons were missing. The death toll there was placed at 200. been washed away, Reports teday from Clewiston, which was feared to have said no lives were lost there. Thomas Temple, executive secretary of the Chicago Chapter of the American Red Cross, estimated that “it will take at least a vear to rehabilitate Florida.” Carl (. Fisher, one of the pioneer developers at Miami Beach, announced at New York that steps would be taken shortly to rebuild it I'he national headquarters of the American Red Cross made an i ial contribution of $100.000 to the Florida relief fund. Two hundred children, separated from their families, were walking through the ruins of their home in Miami, the newspaper men reported, while the roads leading tb West Palm Beach were crowded with automobiles filled with refugees. Fears for the health of many children were prevalent because of lack of water, milk and proper sanitary conditions. Clewiston, which in early reports was reported wiped out, sur- vived the storm with no ca ualties. A wall of silence guarded the extent of the hurricane's toll in Fort Lauderd dale, said to have heen one of the heaviest sufferers. Hundreds of persons were injured in Miami by flying debris during the nine-hour storm, a Pullman condu:tor reported. He said the wind tore heavy galvanized iron sheets from the roofs of buildings and carried them about like paper. Bread Lines Formed in Miami. Bread lines have been formed in Miami and severe penalties fixed for hoarding and profiteering The city is under martial law and no one is gllowed on the strects at night unless on urgent business. Refugees reaching Sebring from Lake Okeechobee said that only the brick buildings came through the gale unscathed and that wreckage was gtrewn over a wide area. They said the Mayflower Hotel at Moore Haven was turned completely around and that numerous small buildings were wrecked. A man reaching lakeland from Moorehaven, however, i most of the buildings were standing, mates of the death toll in this sec- ranged from 50 to 100. The flood was receding to Doctors and nurses w in the disaster section today, bring- ing supplics of food and Urgept calls had been sent out equipment to handle 300 X-ray cases at Fort Lauderdale.

An unidentified man who swam to shore said he was a_member of the crew of a schooner wrecked near Fort Lauderdale. He left his captain on board with both arms and his back, broken and a companion who started the swim perished. The man was too exhausted to give further details. Citrus fruit suffered severe dam- age thronghout the storm-swept area. The west coast of Florida, although in the grip of 75 to 90 mile gale for several hours Saturday afternoon, escaped with comparatively _slight damage and no casualties were re- ported. Miami Admits Only Officials, Br the Associated Press MIAMI, September 20 ranging from 600 to 1,500 dead pre- vailed tn the Miami disaster area this morning as first contact with the out- side world was established by air- plane, automobile and relief trains. The damage was estimated at $150,- 000,000 In the Miami storm area district are included Hollvwood, Fort Lauder- dale, Redlands, Moorehaven and Clew- iston Little contact with these places had been established, as the causeways were flooded and wreckage and high water barred fraffic.

Scores of automobiles were, leaving here hourly with refugees; for the most part families with .cl ren for whose health there was concern due to the scarcity of milk and the lack of proper sanitary-facilities. Identification -of the dead in the various sections was proceeding slowly as search continued for addi- tional les. City Manager F. H. Wharton of Miami has ordered all persons from the city’s streets unless they are searching for missing rela- tives, attempting to identify the dead are assisting in relief work. Relief trains from West Palm Beach have arrived, bringing addi- physicians, trained nurses, medical supplies and essential foods.

By the Associated Press, AVON PARK, Fla., September 20.— With 56 bodies in an improvised morgue here today and the missing totaling nearly 200, rescue workers in Moore Haven were bending every ef- fort to remove all persons from the flooded area. Nearly 500 refugees ar- rived last night. Officials who returned here this morning said the water was receding and that the collection of the dead would be resumed immediately. According to one eyewitness the dike along Lake Okeechobee broke at 8 o'clock Saturday morning and the water poured over the land until it stood 12 to 14 feet deep in the highest spot in Moore Haven. In the lowland it was over the roofs of houses. Few expected the break, as the dike was supposed to be invulnerable. Lake Port, a village of about 200 people, also was isolated. Stories of tragedy and occaslonally of heroism were told by the refugees from Moorehaven. But incidents of humor so ofter found in time of stress were not described; humor seemed not to have penetrated the realm of death. Dr. Y. W. Chandler, one of the 5§ refugees, told of the finding of 11 bodles in one building; of a mother who tied her three children to her and when two were drowned .in raging waters, cut them free and raised the third to her shoulder. She held out until ‘rescued. > Boy Rescues PFather. A boy saw another youngster carry- ing his father op his back through water up to their necks. - Mr. and Mj$. J. A.

This appeal followed by several sident and John Barton ayne, chairman of the board of gov- ernors of the Red Cross, At that time Judge Payne informed the President that not only were first reports, of the catastrophe in Florida undoubt- edly true but that later dispatches indicated the extent of the tragedy would be even more appaling when the full story is known. At the end of the conference it was decided that a proclamation from - the President asking the American Nation to con- tribute to the relief of the stricken Florida cities weuld not be ‘decided upon until aftef another meeting at the White House this afternoon. Tssuance of the President’s appeal interpreted ‘as meaning that later in- formation had convinced Mr. Coolidge that further delay in asking the peo- ple of the whole Nation to go to the assistance of their stricken fellow citizens in Florida could not be con- sidered.

In line with the President’s expres- sions of sympathy and offer of co- operation, officials of the War and Navy Departments already have initlated moves designed to further | the work of relief and protection Secretary of War Davis wired n Martin that every means in the power of the military will be placed at the disposal of the relief authorities. At the same time the war head ordered Maj. Gen.

Secretary Davis also instructed Army officlals to make a survey of Army surplus supplies in the south- eastern section of the country, with a view to turning them over to dis- aster victims.

These men will be used for relief and police duty, it was said. o At the same time Postmaster Gen.

Senator Frederick Hale, Republi- can, of Maine was another caller at the Executive office, but he did not remain to see the President person- ally. He left with Everett Sanders, the President's secretary, however, a pressing invitation for Mr. Coolidge to attend the annual meeting of the National Grange at Portiand, Me., next month. Mr. Sanders promised to present the invitation to the Presi- dent. Mr. Coolidge was up even earlier than usual this morning and enjoved a long walk around the White House grounds, renewing old friendship with familiar _flower beds and tucked-away nooks that he had not seen since he departed for the Adirondacks of New York 72 days ago. Several secret service men ac- companied Mr. Coolidge on hjs tour and he seemed to reflect something of keen satisfaction at this walk through the gardens that have be- come so familiar to him in the vears he has presided over them as the President. After a hearty break- fast he went direct to the executive office. Mail Is Stacked High.
