Mayor Desidierio Amas was authority for the death list and he estimated that a>t least 300 had been injured. Governor Jose Varselo, of Oriente province set the damage figure and his estimate was termed conservative by other officials. As tiny 'groups of residents, still stunned from the panic of the early morning, discussed the disaster in hushed tones, Harry F. Guggenheim, United States ambassador to Cuba, arrived by airplane to promise assistance to the stricken city. Hospitals continued their care for the wounded while approximately 75 per cent of the 130,000 population streamed into outlying country away from stricken, wrenched homes. Approximately' 160 major operations were performed on victims during the day. In the harbor floated the. United States destroyer Hopkins, with navy doctors, medical corpsmen and surgical supplies. Offshore was the U. S. S. Cruiser Augusta, ready to lend aid so far not needed because of excellent relief organizations within the town. A further survey showed extensive damage to the Swift and company building, the customs house, the third floor of the Woolworth store, the San: Carlos club, the two buildings of the Hotel Venus, and the Hotel Casa "I Granda. The buildings of the Bacardi distillery and brewery were slightly damaged, and the company lost 756,000 quarts of beer when vat pipes were broken. An Italian cruiser and destroyer have been ordered to Shanghai to cooperate with the ships of other nations there. Annual Tag Day for the Camden Hospital, Saturday, February 13th.
