Guam Devastated by Terrible Storm

THE terrible storm which recently visited the island of Guam and sunk the auxiliary cruiser Yosemite, wrecked hundreds of houses, practically wiping out some of the towns on the island. At one town twenty-eight persons were killed, and a number of lives were lost in other villages. The coconut crop is reported ruined for four years, and there is much destitution among the natives. Supplies have been sent from Manila, and building material will be sent from the United States.
