TAIPEI, Formosa (UPI) More than 100,000 persons were reported marooned in Taipei to day by rising floodwaters trig gered by Typhoon Gloria, con sidered the worst in the island's history. Authorities feared casualties might run into the thousands. The government ordered more than 10,000 policemen and civil defense workers wearing life jackets to take stranded citi zens aboard rubber rafts and landing barges before high tide tonight. Reports said several were forced to leave their homes in low-lying sections. Reports said Shihmen dam in central Formosa spilled over early this morning and caused authorities to open all flood gates, dumping more than 6,000 cubic feet of water a second into the area's already swollen riv ers. Gloria, the most powerful ty phoon in the Pacific so far this year with center winds up to 140 m.p.h., passed within 55 miles of Taipei and was reported bear ing toward the Chinese main land. Officials said it deluged Taipei with 21 inches of rain in 36 hours. By nightfall, the center winds had decreased to 120 m.p.h., but the typhoon was moving past the island at the unusually slow speed of 6 m.p.h., increasing its destructive capability. At least five persons were re ported killed. They included a mother and child buried in the collapse of their house in sub urban Taipei and three train crewmen swept away by a river after their engine was derailed by the winds. But police were too busy with the threat to compile accurate casualty figures and feared that they might run into the thou sands. Floods in August, 1959, killed, injured or swept away 2,000 persons. At Hsinchu, near Taipei, fierce winds derailed a train early this morning and sent the engine and first car tumbling down an embankment into a raging river, according to au thorities. Two engineers and an assistant were swept away, the reports said. In Keelung Harbor, port city for the capital at the northern end of the island, several ships snapped their anchor cables and were reported floundering. At least one Chinese freighter of 10,000 tons were reported adrift. Police said part of a dike broke near Taipei while several hundred soldiers worked fran tically to reinforce it to save the whole structure. Five thousand families in the area were evacu ated, police said. Gloria dumped 17 inches of rain on the Philippines in four days before it hit Formosa. Thirteen deaths were reported in the mountain resort city of Baguio when two separate land slides triggered by the water and winds crushed one house and swept another into a near by river. Reports from Manila said the sun broke out today for the first time since Saturday. However, strong winds continued to be reported. Rogue Valley Edition Page 2A MEDFORDSiWTRIBUNE .
