700 Missing After Philippines Typhoon Sinks Ferry
Rescuers fought the tail of a typhoon swamping the Philippines to reach a capsized ferry Sunday only to find a mystery — scant signs of the more than 740 passengers and crew. Only 10 wave-battered survivors are known to have made it to land, just hours after the ferry, brought to a virtual halt by the storm that killed at least 137 people nationwide, suddenly tilted and went belly up in about a half-hour around noon Saturday.
