Relief parties are now doing all in their power to miti gate suffering, hut the people are re duced to the lowest possible physical condition, are skeletons, the skin liter ally adhering to their bonea, and in rags, if clad at all. Our illustration, from an official photograph taken at the hospital, represents one of the vic tims found dying and revived with dif ficulty, and is but representative of the condition of a people dying by scores and almost savage in their misery.
