THE PADUA HORROR.
BABY-KILLERS AT WORK. DEMAND FOR REVENGE. Australian and X.Z. Cable Asuociation. HOME, November 14. The Austrians attempted to bomb Venice on Saturday, but were repulsed and bombarded Padua. The biggest bomb fell on a large storehouse, where over IUO cottagers were taking refuge. Sixty-two bodies have been recovered, of whom 20 are babies and 31 women, and 11 old men. Other bodies are buried beneath immense piles of wreckage. The bodies were so mutilated that many women and little children could not he identified. The newspapers are madly indignant at the atrocity, and say that the young men at the front will see that the horror is revenged. The cable news In this Issue accredited to "The Times" has appeared in that journal, but only where expressly stated Is such news the editorial opinion of "The Times."
