THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH,
"TYPHOON'S TOLL. IN JAPAN.
DAMAGE OF HUNDRED MILLION YEN.
Tokyo, July 19. Fuller reports of the Kyushu typhoon indicate that the deaths and injuries among land dwellers are relatively small in view of the storm's ferocity, owing to aniple warning having been given....
About 30 persons are known to be dead ashore, but it is feared that the total has been greatly swelled by sea tragedies.
Even aßoat due warning saved scores, for, although hundreds of boats, mostly fishing craft sank, the majority of these were tied up in the harbour and their crews were safe ashore.
Fairly comprehensive reports are available from Fukuoka and Nagasaki Prefectures.
Houses Destroyed. At Fukuoka 11 persons were killed ashore and 21 are missing. Eighty-eight were injured and 1,000 houses were destroyed and 10,000 damaged.
At Nagasaki, where the wind attained a velocity of 112 miles an hour, it is reported that 600 houses were destroyed and 1,800 damaged, and over 200 boats, mostly fishing sampans, sunk.
Keishorando Province and Korea, it is believed, were serious- ly stricken, but no details are forthcoming, communications be- ing wiped out.-Reuter.
The Death-roll.
Tokyo, July 19.
A partial accounting of the ravages of the typhoon in Kyushu was compiled to-night from police reports, although it is still in- complete. Seventy people are known to be dead while over a hundred are missing. The in- jured total 737 while 4,200 houses were destroyed and over 12,000 damaged. A hundred boats either sank or are missing.
Ta the Nagasaki Profecture 37 people were killed and 460 in- jured, while in the Fukuoka Pre- fecture seventeen people lost their lives in the typhoon. In addition. 90 are missing and the injured number 140. This part of the country suffered the worst in the
storm.
Early estimates of damage have been compiled for two Prefec- tures. In Kagoshima Prefecture it is estimated that the damage totals 19,000,000 yen, and in the Nagasaki Prefecture 20,000,000 yen. This indicates that the total loss will probably exceed 100,- 000,000 yen.-Reuter
Tale of Death and Destruction.
Tokyo, July 20, Fragmentary reports from Korea show that the typhoon swirled across the Southern and Eastern shores of that already stricken peninsula with its fury little abated. Trustworthy 15- limates are not available owing to the disruption of communications, but it is known that Keishonando, Chuseihokudo Keishahokudo. and provinces were severely lashed.
A message from Fusan says that the tale of death and des- truction probably indicates how the majority of parts fared: five dead, injured. 85 houses des- troyed, 8 houses badly damaged and 55 Lonts sunk.
When the typhoon struck, Sen- thern Korea was still inourning hundreds of dead in the recent rains and fonds of which the off- cial death roll is published to- day: 258 known to be dead, 252 missing, believed to be dead, 155 injured, 5,400 houses destroyed. 20,000 homeless.-Reuter
