' The relief of their suffering calls for the concentrated efforts of all the energies of the nation. Thousands of half demented, naked and starving survivors, half of them suffering from injuries, are crying for food, clothing, shelter and medical attendance. The Government is doing all in its power to meet their needs at least in part. No news yet has been received of any of the Americans thought to * have been in the devastated district, excepting Bishop David Sessums, of New Orleans, and his daughter Alice, who are safe at Rome. It is re- ported that several Americans lost their lives in the wreck of a hotel at Messina. Ambassador Griscom is about to set out from Rome for the South in an endeavor to secure information concerning missing Ameri- can travellers. It is estimated that 100,000 people have fled from the desolated ter- ritory in fear of further convulsions.
