C., Oct. 30.-Twenty three persons are known to be dead, thirteen and perhaps more are missing and fifteen are nursing injuries as a result of the disastrous flood which plunged down a steep -mountain side Friday night and transformed the model copper mining settlement of Britannia Beach into a scene of deso lation and ruin. Fully half of the 100 neat, freshly painted cottages were carried away on the crest of the flood. Others were smashed to pieces by the force of the on-rushing waters and most of the remainder were still partially sub merged tonight. Four children are dead and ton others are reported to be missing. Ten of the dead and all of the in jured were -brought to Vancouver last evening on the steamer Capitano. All the injured are expected to recover. An energetic search for the miss ing was made today but the work was necessarily slow because of the dif ficultics in clearing away the wreck age in the sea of mud and water. It is considered doubtful if the bodies of some of the missing will ever be re covered as they are believed to have been washed into the' muddy waters of Howe Sound. aManager J. ODonahue, of the 'Bri tania mines tonight described the ef forts made by those on duty at the mines .property, three miles back from the beach, to warn the residents of the danger. When the railway fill, which caused the accumulation of water in the hills, gave iway and released a roaring torrent into the creek, a warning of the disaster to come was sent .over the private tele phone line of the mines. This mes sage was received by Miss Ellen Pat terson, telephone operator on duty at the compressor 1plant in the village. 'She promptly rang everybody coa nected by telephone, relaying the miners' message: "For God's sake get out of your houses; flood coming down the creek." Before the warning could be un derstood and circulated about the town, the waters crashed down the mountain side sweeping away trans mission lines and 'plunging the vil lage into darkness. The waters had fallen 2,000 feet in their three-mile journey down the mountain and smashed ,straight through the center of the settlement. Britainia creek now runs through the village Itself which is under several feet of water, strewn with timber, telegraph poles, furniture and other wreckage. CHARLES AGAIN SUFFERS DEFEAT Former Emperor Captured by Horthy. Troops in FlIght. Budapest, Oct. 24.-Former Emperor Charles and Former Empress Zita were captu red today near Komorn and are now confined in the castle at Tata Tovars guarded by two companies of government trocips.

The episode moved so rapidly that the full details have not yet reached the .capital. As far as is known at the present timo Charles managed to push a train load of troops to Budar, a short distance from Budapest. At first 'he held his own against the forces of 'Regent Horthy but when the iHorthy treaos were reinforced Charles was compelled to beat a retr:>at at 5 o'clock Sunday afternoon, closely fol lowed 'by the iHorthy forces to Her ceghalom. The monarchist troops, who were at tempting to open the 'way for the en 'try of flormer King Charles to the Hungarian capital, were defeated this morning in hand to hand fighting, in which grenades were used, near Tata Tovars, about 35 miles from (Buda pest, They lost 200 ktilled and about 1,000 wounded. The former king sent another pleni ipotentiary to Admiral Horthy, the re gent, today, and discussions lasting several hours rwere carried on but with little hope of agreement at both par ties 'were 'obstinate and bloodshed has aggravated the situation. The Karlist premier, Rakovsky, ,has issued a proclamation to the nation to rally ,to the king's banner and fight against "the ungrateful rebel, Hor thy." Budapest, Oot, 24-The Karlist ipre mier.
