JorxstowN, Pa., June 11.—The debris
of the raft on the castern side near the |

The Situation.
JorxstTowx, Pa., June 11.—The exact
situation of Johnstown is just this: There |
are missing and dead about 10,000 people.
The refugees are living in tents and
crowded into houses of friends on the |
hills. Debris is piled high all over Johns-
town proper, with the exception of a |
wide swath along the Conemaugh, swept
elean of houses, but which is four or five |
feet deep with sand.
The debris holds decaying vegetables
and animal matter, and the acres of
debris remain above the bridge sending
forth at all times the strong and almost
overpowering odor of decay. Many of
the houses Kernville and Horners- |
ville, which escaped total wreckage, are |
breeding places for disease, the cellars
are full of mud and decay, and anong |
them sickness is gradually increasing. |
The sanitary conditions are almost be-

mer just beginning it will be a marvel
indeed if contagion does not run riot.

The Sickening Stench.
People just arriving in Johnstown sa
that the stench is sickening and fearful,
tainting the air the valley every-
where, while those who have worked
here throughout the trying scenes have
noticed it only at times and in certain
places, showing that their senses are be-
numbed.
All the waters are giving up their
dead and the skiffs and grapplers are in
waiting for them. The red shirted lum-
berman standing midway in the raft,
who called the marker and color
beaver, raised his ax to strike, but the
blow never fell. If it had it would have
cut in twain the first of the bodies taken
from the point on the morning of the
tenth day. It was the remains of a
woman, Emma Roth by name, identi-
fied by her broken hearted husband an
hour later,
Immediate Barial Necessary.
The day is past when the discovered
dead can be kept any time for identifica-
tion. Frightful scenes at the morgues
bear quick testimony of this. The keep-
ers say that as soon as the air strikes the
corpses now it becomes almost impos
gible to handle them and the sooner they
are buried the better.
Y There are over fifty new faces on the
slabs at the morgue, and a record shows
that up to noon Sunday, which was just
8 week frdm the time morgues were es
tablished, 1,492 people were buried from
hem who were discovered right in this
vicinity. This has nothing to do with
the valley, or the dead of Ninevah, New
Florence and elsewhere. A great many
were also buried who were not taken to
these morgues,

cally that there 18 a single case of

fatal and is not contagious. It is some-
think like quinzy, but a milder disease.
Religious services were held at several
different places throughout the city yes
terday and were largely attended.
The Waters Give Up Their Dead.
The waters began to give up their
dead yesterday, the ninth since the
flood. Fifty odd bodies were recovered
here, most of them floating in the
water. Seven of them were dragged
out of the raft above the bridge. On
the body of Christopher Kempt, an un-
dertaker, was found $3,100,

CLEARING THE WRECK.
An Immense Amount of Time and Labor
Required for the Work.
Joussrows, Pa., June 7.—~Five thou-
sand men were yesterday at work clearing
away the debris on the island. Last
evening the number was increased to
8,000, Gangs came mm from Hollidays-
burg. Sandpatch and half a dozen other
places and reported for duty. They
were put to work at once, most of them
without any breakfast.
Mr. Flinn estimates that it will take
10,000 men sixty days to clear away the
wreck. At this rate it will require §1,-
500,000 to pay for the work. This does
not include the expenses. Five million
dollars will not be enough to put Johns
town in shape for rebuilding.
The EMicacy of Fire,
Dr. Graff has been given charge of the
sanitary commission. Dr. Oraff talked
at length on the different plans of sani-

tation for the flooded district, and finally
said: “There is but one sure, safe a
burn everything. [I think the order will
be issued to burn everything all over the
district. This is the surest plan to pre-
vent any contagion or epidemic; but un-
derstand there is no immediate
of epidemic as long as the weather keeps
as cool as it is now. There is not so
much danger from decomposition and
putrefaction unless the weather changes
and becomes warm,”
Dr. Graf's plan of d ng of the
debris above the bridge is to scatter ofl
over it and burn it.
Powder More Effective Than Dynamite,

the bridge proved more effective than

detonations coming so close together
that they might almost be taken for the
continuous discharge of heavy guns. An

in some places fifty feet, was made dur-
ing the afternoon.
Endeavors to Save the Dam.
In conversation with a press repre
sentative Resident Engineer Park, who
was on the spot when the dam broke on
Friday, said:
“On Thursday night I noticed that the
dam was in good order, and the water
was nearly seven feet from the top.
When the water is at this height the
lake is then nearly three miles in length,
It rained hard on Thursday night, and |

THE DAM DEFECTIVE
Made of Mud and the Safety Slnlceways
Kept Closed,
Jouxsrows, Pa, Juna 6,—The broken
dam, where the terrible Conemaugh dis
aster had its beginning, is receiving at-
tention now that the first thrills of bor
ror over the catastrophe itself have in
some measure begun to subside
Numbers of correspondents and others
have visited the dam, and no one who
has seen it confirms the stories of its
elaborate structure and fine masonry
which have been told in different quar-
ters, Indeed, the general verdict of
thes e visitors seems to be that there was
no masonry there. The dam is declared
to have been merely a heap of mud,
faced with rough stones and filed in
somewhat with shale,
The Slulcoeways Closed.
Years ago, when the reservoir back of
the dam was used as a feeder to the
Pennsylvania canal, the dam was in bet-
ter shape, and it is said that there were
sluiceways whicn could readily be opened
#0 aa to relieve the reservoir if the press
ure of water became too great,
These sluices had been kept closed by
the South Fork Fishing oh since they
came into possession of the place, in or-
der that the game fish might not escape
to the river below,
Experts have declared that had these
extra sluices been kept in order and op
erated there is no room to doubt that the
terrible calamity in the Conemaugh val-
ley could have been averted,
The Dam Improperly Planned.
Not only do those who have visited
the dam deciare that its material was ig-
suffident, but they also assert that it
was not lined out on an improved basis
of engineering. There was no attempt
to give it extra strength curvature,
