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.
