MOUNT ETNA SUBSIDING.
EXAGGERATED REPORTS. ONLY 400 HOMELESS. Australian and N.Z. Cable Assn. Received June 25. 11.20 a.m. LONDON, June 24.' The Morning Past's Home correspondent says it is now realised how absurdly exaggerated have been the accounts of the eruption of Mt. Etna. The net result is none killed, and only 400 homeless. The total damage is 70,000,000 lire. Many owners of destroyed property are multi-millionaires. The lava stream is diminishing, and the intensity of toe eruption is drawing to a close.
