123 Persons So Far Known Killed in Typhoon Manila, Nov. 20.
No less than 123 persons are reported killed as a result of the violent typhoon which cut across the Visayan Islands on Wednesday night.
Damage of at least 8,000,000 posos was caused. In one island alone 10,000 horses were destroyed. The heaviest toll of lives was taken at Cebu, where 31 persons were drowned when three launches sank. Interruption of communications has prevented receipt of news from many districts.—Reuter,
