HONO KONG, Sept. 19..—Following the terrible scenes of devastation as a result of yesterday's death-dealing: typhoon, the sea is today giving up Its dead by the score. From hundreds of wrecked buildings the corpses of those who lost their lives in the city, are today being removed while there hangs over the community the pall of the disaster. There is wreck and ruin on every Bide. The Investigation now on foot Indicates that the death list will mount into the thousands, exceeding by far anything dreamed of yesterday.As reported yesterday, but few foreigners have sustained serlaufH cigners have sustained serious injury except those who were aboard ships in the harbor. The rpoperty loss in the foreign quarter will be large, but is exceeded to a great degree by that sustained in the native residential section. merable ships ashore, causing others The hurricane started at ton o'clock and lasted two hours, drving Innu- to foul or fill with water until they were awash, and causing damage that will amount to several mllliou dollars. • MANILA, P. I., Sept. 19— Hong Kong is today a city of the dead according to numerous cablegrams reaching here this morning. Yesterday's dispatches failed utterly to convey any adequate idea of the real destructiveness of the typhoon. It is now stated that the loss of life will reach more than five hundred souls, tho exact total will probably s never be known on account of the faufc thfct -many unknown vessels ore believed to have gone down outside the harbor. It Is estimated that the property loss will mount well up into the millions. Scores of bodies have been washed ashore today and the morgues, Improvised and regular, are overcrowded.The groatest loss of life was among the natives. Pearl River was crowded with boats and the storm sent hundreds Jo tho bottom. Charles Kirkpatr(ck Tries to Leave Through Windc,/ and Is Injured TODAY'S STOCK MARKET.
