TYPHOON DAMAGE IN LUZON,

A terrible typhoon swept ter the menintains of northern Luzon lastek.

According to a te graphic report made by the senior-inspector at Baguio the blow strack the mountain capital with anprecedented violence. The free of the wind completely demolished destroyed the Constabulary barraoke and corral and partly unroofed the quarters of the senior inspector. The old provincial building collapsed entirely.

It is not known just what the total less of life is, but it has been definitely ascertained that 14 Filipinos were killed at the Antimok mine and it is reported that the mills af both the Antimok and the Consolilated mines are badly damaged, The Beagnet road, which suffered so severely, and many think irreparable, from the July storm in those mountains, has again been considerably affected. The Nagailian trail, known to many ma the back road" to the mountain capital, is reported as being badly damaged as well,

No further details are available regarding the results of the storm, this being the first mess- ago that has been received over the wires from the mountain capital, all communitation having been out of for several days,

DAGUPAN INUNDATED.

Fresh reports of the destruction wrought sy the recent basey rains to the north of Manila were brought in by Dr. Warren G. Smith, ohist of the division of mines, bureau of science, and party of four accompanying him, who returned from a trip into the affected region. The rice. crap is still inundated, thongh apparently not damaged, and it is believed that should the water go down within four or five days there will be one of the greatest crops erer. Reon.

Ahont 1555, under Capt. Pedro do Valenzuela, Aparri the Spanish conquistadores took over the mines, Manila enslaved the patire Indians and compelled the Legaspi..... to work the mines. So eager were the Spaniards Bacolod to get rich quickly that atrocious cruelties were Iloilo Cebu practised on the Indian workers, and this was carried so far that finally the priests complained Labuan to the Crown (King of Spain) that the inaumer- able deaths of the Indiaas omployed in the mines adversely affected the ecclesiastical rarettes. This resulted in the importation of African negroes, bat eventually the mains were partly olased. later the whole region was so desolated that ha During the war of independence in 1816 and two of the mines, Cosquez and Somondono, were entirely lost, and Muz has-produced all the gems since that time. It han boon prolific, but the output has been steadily declining during the last ten years and according to the very best information the ultimate practical abandonment must come in the near future unless now reinsin, thunder, y visiblity, w dow (wet) are uncovered, which is deemed improbable by the English engineers formerly in charge of the workinge.
