MARCONI DESCRIBES RUIN
Inventor Tells, of Hearing Voices of
Girls ia Wreckage of School,
and of Failure of Strenuous
Work to Release Them,
ROME. Jan. 15. William Marconi,
who returned here today from Avez
sana on board the train with Kins Vu
tor Emmanuel, declared words were in
sufficient to describe the horrors he
had witnessed. The town had been
leveled, he said, and those of its resi
dents who had escaped death in the
disaster now were destitute. ,
"King Victor Emmanuel told me,
Marconi said, "that he had visited the
scenes of all the earthquake districts
In Italy since he was a child, but this
one surpassed all others, even includ
ins; Messina. The Kins said the sur
vivors of Avezzano were only between
2 and 3 per cent of its population.
while In Messina one-third of the peo
ple escaped.' ,

Describing the damage done in Avez
zano. Mr. Marconi said:
"Avezzano has ceased to exist. In
Messina some buildings, especially the
palaces alons the sea front, give one
the Impression that they are still in
tact,, their facades having survived the
shock while only their interiors fell in.
Not so with Avezzano. No wall there
remains erect. It seems as though the
town had been ground to powder by
some gigantic machine.
' The people of Avezzano, according to
Mr. Marconi, have abandoned their ef
forts to take the bodies of the dead
from the wreckage, and are giving their
entire attention to trying to rescue the
living who are prisoners in the debris.
The catastrophe was of such vast pro
portions, Marconi said, that no organi
zation of men could possibly have done
anything to give relief. The people
were in despair at their powerlessness
to render aid to those who called for
help from their places of entombment.
Uvea of Injured Stilled.
"During the first day of the disaster,"
Mr. Marconi continued, "the rescuers
were so few they could not even at
tempt to excavate at places from which
cries of distress came, and planted poles
here and there at such spots, hoping
to' return later with adequate forces of
men to release the imprisoned persona.
When would-be rescuers did arrive,
however, most of the voices were stilled
and the poles were merely markers of
spots under which lay the dead."
Mr. Marconi personally heard coming
from under the ruins of the girls' school
in Avezzano the voices of two of the
pupils imploring aid. The girls said
they were uninjured. They were pro
tected from injury by a piano under
which they had fallen, and which be
came wedged in the wreckage and acted
as a screen from the tumbling- wTl if
the schoolhouse.
Girls Still Prisoner.
At first choked by dust and later
numbed by cold, they had remained for
two days without nourishment, and, in
spite of the strenuous efforts to release
them, the girls were still prisoners
when Mr. Marconi left Avezzano for
Home.
Prior to his departure Mr. Marconi
said he endeavored to organize small
parties of men to attempt to extinguish
tires which had broken out at several
points among the debris and which, he
added, undoubtedly had burned to death
some of the pinioned victims. The dif
ficulty of fighting the names was almost
Insurmountable because water was al
most entirely lacking in the town.
Mr. Marconi left Rome tonight for

of the city, but up to the time I left
fewer than 100 of the inhabitants bad
been taken from the ruins. Many prob
ably died last night, as it was bitterly
cold and the voices of those soil alive
had become faint.
In Rome the scene is as if wounded
were arriving from battle. The rail
road station is given over to ambu
lances, doctors, nurses helpers and the
Red Cross. Trame with wounded are
continually arriving, while the bos
pitais are overflowing with patients.
Some suffer mentally as well as Doauy,
ha vine ever before their eye the nor
rible deaths of their families, friends
and companions.
Vast sums of treasure are buried, as.
owing- to the moratorium, each family
keeps relatively large sums in its
house, which otherwise would have
been in the banks. Probably it will
never be recovered, as when sure that
none of those buried can possibly .sur
vive, the debris will be left for a time
untouched. A new town will rise on
top of the old.

Many Narrow Escapes Attend
Destruction of Those That
Are Washed .Ashore.
DUTCH COAST PERILOUS
English Mine Cannot Be Taken
Apart and Must Be Exploded,
Case and All French Model
More Easily Disposed Of.
AMSTERDAM, Dec. 16. (Correspond
ence of the Associated Press.) The sea
mine ia a problem even after it has
been washed ashore, and for those who
must destroy it, this terrible enemy of
shipping offers the same danger it does
to the crew of the vessel it happens to
wreck. This is the discovery made by
the men under Lieutenant C. J. Canters,
of the Amsterdam torpedoboat station,
who has been charged) by the Dutch
government with the destruction of the
mines that are washed ashore along the
Netherland coast
So far no serious accident has come
to the men who render the stranded sea
mines innocuous by exploding them
where they are found. But there have
been many narrow escapes, due mostly
to the fact that the English mines can
not be taken apart, as can the French
and Dutch mines. Ia case of the latter
the shell of the mine consists of two
half-spheres, united by a flange and
rivets, while the English mine-shell is
cast in one piece and then loaded
through a "manhole."
while it would be possible to remove
the cover of the manhole, this is con
sidered too dangerous, for the reason
that the sensitive initial charge of the
mine lies close to the aperture. This
leaves but one method . in which the
mine may be destroyed explode it,
case and all.
The fragments of the shell fly far
and- wide; one of them, weighing six
pounds, was recently found 6 yards
from the scene of the explosion.
Bigger Number Are English.
Of 83 mines on which reports have
been made so far by Lieutenant Can
ters, 70 were of English origin, or na
tionality as it is expressed here; four
were French and eight Dutch, while
the remaining one could not be identi
fied. These figures show that the task
of the mine destroyers has been no
pleasant one. Being hit by a fragment
of the shell was a chance the men took
every time they attempted the disable
ment of an English, mine.
The French sea mine is more easily
disposed of. In this case the shell is
broken open with a light charge of
picrid acid; the charge of gun cotton
is then removed and exploded without
scattering a hail of iron in all direc
tions. The operation resembles almost
that of opening a walnut with a knife
and in a way Just as easy.
The mine is so placed that the equa
torial seam rests well in the sand. To
one side of the seam is then placed the
bit of picrid acid, about the size, shape
and color of a piece of laundry soap.
Into this has been inserted a small ln-
tial charge of fulminate. A fuse about
400 centimeters long and burning about
400 seconds, sets oft the charge.
Some Exploded ay Shot.
The flange has then been broken and
to separate the halves of the shell is
has been damaged, are disposed, at ia
the same way.
The English mines are exploded usu
ally by placing a beavy charge under
them. They may be exploded by firing
a shot into them. The bullet penetrate
th shell easily enough, aa a rule, and
strikes the charge with sufficient force
to produce the shock needed to set it
off. In gun cotton as in nitroglycerine,
both being what is known to chemists
as "chemical mixture" explosives, there
exists an unstable equilibrium between
atom and molecule. This the striking
bullet upsets' and an explosion results;
Grrmii Mine FoauadL
Contrary to what has been asserted,
so far. not a single mine of proved Ger
man origin has stranded on the Dutch
coast The mine entered as of unknown
origin may have been. German how
ever. It lacked all marks, and was
formed of two halves. -
A torn cable has shown in a majority
of cases that the mines which bad
drifted ashore had been anchored and
that the cable had been too weak to
hold them in place.
There is no special condition which
would cause all "wild-cat" mines to
drift on the Dutch coast, it is asserted. (
In fact, it is believed here that many ;
of the mines have been carried through ,
and beyond the channel by the currents ;
in that body of water. Those which
have done so will remain a scourge to
navigation for many months, because, r
unlike tbe floating or free mines, those I
which are kept in place Dy ancnors
have no device that causes them to sink
after a time.

DANGER OF FAILURE.
Democrats Tell President Conservation
and the Philippine Independence
Bills Cannot Be Reached.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15. Democratic
leaders in the Senate, beset by every
parliamentary obstacle that minority
Senators can resort to, have practically
abandoned hope of accomplishing any
general legislation in the few remain
ing weeks of the Sixty-third Congress,
except appropriation bills and the Gov
ernment ship-purchase bill. -
Even the ship-purchase measure is
in danger of failure, in the opinion of
some of the Senators. Although they
have assurance that this measure can
be passed, they are fearful lest tne
press of appropriation bills,' coupled
with -the concerted plans of Republi
can leaders to fight the ship bill, will
operate to keep the latter from reach
ing a vote.
It became known today that some of
the Democratic Senators had told the
President that the conservation meas
ures and the Philippine independence
bill, which he had urged in his annual
message to Congress, could not Be
passed at this session. They also made
known to him their apprehensions re
garding the ship-purchase bill.

Its inhabitants, gradually crumbling
until not one stone was left on another

dust.
Cries Have Hopelcaa Sound.
This impression was quickly dispelled
by the sight of numerous dead and one
bad the same mysterious feeling that
is experienced on entering a cemetery.
But here, instead of silence, there were
hartrending cries from the many liv
ing who were buried beneath the ruins
wixh the dead and the dying. The im
prisoned victims were calling for help
without ceasing, but. as they had been
calling In vain for many hours, their
cries had a hopeless 'sound and were
intermingled with sobs and wails of
anguish.
One heap of ruins was recognized as
the remains of the orphan asylum and
here could be heard the wails of 150
children pinned under the debris and
weeping themselves to death. In other
ruins identified as tbe places where
barracks, convents, sugar refineries,
palaces and churches had stood cries
could be distinguished, but as the day
wore on the voices became fainter and
fainter as life slowly ebbed away.
Doctors Work In Kevcriah Haate.
In freight cars near the ruined rail
road station 150 injured survivors were
under the care of doctors, who were
working with feverish haste. Only 60
of the patients had been recovered from
the ruins in the town, the others hav
ing beenfound along the roadside ut
terly exhausted.
Soldiers were hard at work among
the ruins and were overcoming tre
mendous difficulties. Often after work
ing an hour and removing tons of
debris they would succeed in recover
ing victims, only to find that help had
come too late. In one instance they
brought out the mangled body of a
child still clinging to its dead mother's
breast and still warm, but ti was im
possible to save its life.
The earthquake in Avezzano, though
It worKed less havoc than that in. Mes
sina, was a greater catastrophe, as only
a small percentage of the 10.000 in
habitants escaped death. Systematic
excavation was not practicable, as there
was no way of telling where all the
living were to be found. In some cases
it was discovered that the occupants
of ruined and silent houses were all
alive, but unable to speak.
Many of Injured Suffocated.
Survivors say that for hours after
the city was destroyed clouds of dust
rose above the ruins so dense that
breathing was Impossible. It seems
