CFBOM A. STArr C0KRBSPONDE5T.1 Cosvestios Hall, i MnrcnuroLis, June 10. The falls of the Mississippi which had shone so gloriously the previous midnight under the moon to all who came out of the darkened convention hall were foaming un der a golden sun as the miehty throng went by at 11 this morning. Shed Shook said to me, the last word the night before: "I don't believe Harrison can get it" Quay, with a pair of spectacles on and a soft hat, now stood reading telegrams. Washburn stood by his nephew, Hempstead Washburn, JInyor of Ctiicago, a small chumpy man, of Creole look. The introduction of Pittsburg's resolution against a second term and demanding six years has been opposed in the Minnesota delegation as one ot the many reflections upon the President. The hall was crowded at prayer. "Will he be nominated on a Friday?" asked Jones. "Who wouldn't take it on a Fri day, the Mahometans say," answered Rob inson, of Minnesota, chosen a Harrison tommitteenian. Quay Drop! Oat Amid Cheer. Sewell, a manifest STorth Irishman, Aeemed to be the Harrison manager. Har rison's report went through, Quay with drawing opposition amid loud cheers. Piatt had an eyeglass and a look ot want of sleep, out otnernise was gentle ana even miling. Suspicious sorts of activity were seen at the rapid approach of nominations. Quay went a good wars to confer with Duf field, of Michigan, as to what to do with Al ger whether to take him out by the heels, or rive him a ducal crown, bad become a prime question, Various expressions were heard against too much negro in these conventions. The yellow Jersey negro, who supposed himself consecrated as an alternative, still slipped llong the front of the stage. Sam Thomas, Brice's and Foster's partner.a partisan man, was active in the aisle. Clarkson seemed to realize that his view of Harrison beine a good politician had been approved; he has been receiving spiritual messages that he is wanted for Vice Presi dent, hence, perhaps, these straddle conces sions. The various Southern delegations were still fighting about something or other with a spoon in it. Foraker IrfHes His Temper. Foraker seemed mad about something or other as he discussed with a bleached col league. A iemale suflragist took the plat .orui, straw and black bonnet, corsage 1-ouquet and bine badge. She did not per ipire like the other sex; was eood humored, And gave a mild flavor of family dinner to the scene. It seemed clear that she was an Iowess. She made good taffy for the male sex, and was up in declamation. Amuse ment seemed to be the expression of the delegations, and the human owl in the gal lery whooped as she left and raised yells of defight, A little after 12 the States were called for Presidental candidates. Edward Wolcott, of Colorado, took the platform. Of the stock of Washingtons and Hamiltons, Wol cott is said to be a preacher's son. In the first sentence he let oflf the name of Blaine and wild yells followed. Cheers for Blaine and music Wolcott had some notes, kept a handkerchief between his fists, had brown hair, fashionable clothes and spoke right on, shaking his head as on a pivot, stepping back, moving with rolling gait, his voice loud, pleasing, distinctly echoed, his whole manner youthful and manly, and yet a Senator of the United States. He was per fectly at home and seemed to make a great advantage upon the heavy-spectacled Inger soll, who called Blaine the Plumed Knight. Everybody Held by B'alne's Orator. In a little while, by his talent and qual ity, intellect, forensic and social, Wolcott held everybody, friends and enemies of Blaine, and speaking short and pretty, he ended without any repetition and amid lond shouts of the delegates rising. Chauncey Depew narrowly watched him, for he had a task to do to discount Wolcott Foraker listened intently. All the orators felt that a new man had come to divide their applause. Indiana soon sent up Dick Thompson. He spoke to the.point, at nearly twice Wol cott's age, and wasting no words, ended amid triumphant yells for what he named "the warrior statesman." The galleries were about equally divided between Blaine and Harrison. Thompson referred to Depew, as he came up the aisle, and who was to make the great effort of his life. Eustis, ot Minnesota, a lame man, fol lowed for Blaine, and his voice was not well heard, for few men can speak in such a vast encampment and most of the poor speakers want the most time. Quay put his hand oi his head and looked ilL The speaker pluck lly faced unpopularity and got cheers ga lore, A most extraordinary scene was pro duced by a bunch of pretty women behind the stage, led by Mrs. Lake, a pretty Ja cobin with a white parasol; grasping it with both hands she began a frantic waving and calling the name of Blaine. Her beauty and youth gave a Joan of Arc look to her earnestness. In a few minutes she seemed beside herself, and the contagion spread to Mrs. K. C Kerens, of Missouri, who waved a flag and was assisted by her daughter, while Kerens, on the floor, was for Harri son. Ktoii Heed Had to Laaclu Tom lieed stood up and laughed. The delegates got flags and Mrs. John M. Thurs ton unfolded a white parasol with "Blaine" upon it A kodak man arose and took the scene with a grin and a string. Blaine never was cheered so much, and Mrs. Blaine got even for a good deal of abuse of herself in the morning papers. Some dele gates led the music with umbrellas. Hiscock and Depew sat still, listening to this 20 minutes' pandemonium. Finally the women around him made Tom Reed get up and cheer, and thu, like Marshal Ney, lie fell in the arms of the Xnpoleon he went to fieht A light of battle days came on Beed's face as he waved for Blaine, and a great star was raised over his head by Mrs. Kerens. -Another ten minutes of cheers went on, amid cries: "Blaine! Blainel James G. Blainel" This was the apothesh of a man beaten only by his apostatized friends and the offices. The scene was the greatest, long est and most frenzied ever seen' in a con vention, and resembled the sea green of battle where the wounded Islamites raised all the night long the painful cheer of "Yah I Mohammed !" Finally Madame Lake was suppressed by Monsieur Lake, and this ended the carmagnel. Mattison, of Mississippi, a typical mulatto with a pretty, musical voice, got on the stage for Blaine, and read from a tablet and had the best modulated, most agreeable tone, and the least excita bility of any speaker we had heard. Drpen't Greatest Effort ot Ills Life. After great hullaballoo again our Chaun cey arose, badges all over the breast, stood straight as an arrow, hands behind his back and turned on the overflow. This man is a progressive student, and his artful syntax he punctuated by fine inflections. He raises his hands, opens his fingers like a pianist, and know the rostrum from boy hood. A little lacking in impulsiveness and in the art of praise and reflection, he suits the West as well as the East, and cre ated little affection for his subject He resembled some Latin statesman, in his hooked nose, bald head, hollow chin and in creasing age. An old French or Austrian marquis ot 60 vears of ae, he might be. His head is a shallow inverted bowl, resting in his collar, his forefinger is forever raised to God emphasizing, till both elbows work the grand emphasis forward as if he was lowering a jib on his father's sloop. That youthful voice was raised for Fremont when just out of college, to his father's dislike. As e mentions McKinley's name therr is a great ovation pre clusive of votes for that Governor, who sits pale and ready, and old General Mahone gets on a chair and joins the shouting. Depew pays a tribute to Blaine and all the rest goes "into commentaries and becomes collegiate and mysterious. The University of Minnesota makes a man to do some oratory like this. He savs Harrison has been Secretary of State and of the Treasury also in place of two disabled men, and the Indiana men shout This becomes immense when he Bays Harrison saved the despair of years by carrying New York in 1888, and reads from Blaine to Garfield about a second term. A Speech That Commanded Attention. Depew's speech commanded attention, but its orignality is not manifest and its expertness was its chief ornament. He labored to keep down resentment: At the end yells broke out again for Blaine and the band played "We're All Surrounded." while a big picture of Harrison and a bis fla: pro vided for the movement waved down to the stage. Suddenly a sreat blue and rjurole banner of the Chicago Club moved up the main aisle, with .Blaine's picture in oil before its golden eagle. Another man took a great Blaine plume and dusted Harrison's por trait with It as he retieated down the aisle. Elliott Shopard now dusted Clmuncev's head with his handkerchief. Everybody shouted. inclusive or a woman chewing gum, who stood upon a cualr, but was not pretty. Some one got a cowbell, another imitated the hoodoo bird. The umbrella tool napped It open and shut, others had their watches out, lesolved to whoop longer than their rivals had done. When the voting commenced it speedily became apparent that Harrison would bo nominated on the first ballot, and his oppo nents broke Into two columns, some ob stinate ones adhering to Rlaiue. nthm breaking away to McKinley. When Foraker announced U votes from Ohio for McKinley there was great excite ment in the convention, both in the galleries and on the floor, and McKinley himselr stood up gravely, striking the desk with his gavel. The noise lasted but a little while, and was too late to arrest the drift toward Harrison. McKinley now attempted to cor rect the report of the vote, as the chairman of the delegation, but Foraker, with a mix ture of good humor and satire, reproved hltn, saying that he had retired from the chairmanship and his place was on the platiorm. McKinley had the rotl called, to the disfavor ot the audience, which wanted food. When Foraker himselr led the list, voting for McKinley, there was a loud oheer. McKinley easily got his whole State, casting All .Eyes Fixed on Pennsylvania. The Oiegon alternate cast the whole vote for McKinley, when there was a loud whoop, the Blaine men whooping to get time to nominate McKinley. Everybody waited for Pennsylvania. Quay was up toward the speaker, with the vote In his hand. Tu multuous shouts passed over the body of the delegates, as if they thought liehtning might drop upon the rod which has been up for seven days. The Pennsylvania delega tion was standing up and disputed Quay's count The forlorn chance of turning the movement into a McKinley victory w as at Its climax. It was generally said that Mass achusetts bad flunked on her promise and cast neaily all her votes for Mc Kinley. Dlsston, the saw manufac turer, led off for Harrison, and was loiiowed Dy Eitini. or the street car syndi cate. Oliver started the vote Tor McKinloy on behalf of the Quay men. McCormlok, of the Marylaal family, voted for McKinley; Harry Bingham voted tor McKinley; Graham, the United States District Attornev, voted for HairUon: Butler voted for Blaine; ex-Sneaker Galusha (J row's alternate voted for McKinley. Chris Magee, standing up and taking the count, voted lor Harrison, amid applause. He is a large man, with a broad chest, a small nose and small mustache, and dark gray hair parted in the middle. Quay voted Tor McKinley and evoked a roar of applause. Pennsylvania gavo McKinley nearly as many votes as Ohio (42), but in the convulsion Harri son's vote had sprung up to 19. Rhode Island turned almost bodily over to Harrison, and South Carolina was reported to have gone nearly solid for Harrison, but a negro chal lenged it While they were taking this poll it was manifest that Harrison had run up over 400 votes. South Dakota went clear over to Harrison. The vote of Tennessee raised a loud shout, when ChriB Magee raised his hand and led the approbation, as Harrison was now about nominated. Texas Settles the Whole Business. It was now seen that Texas would nomi nate Harrison. When Texas voted every body in the house knew that the work was done, and all sprang to chairs and waved handkerchiefs. The delegates were mixed with the people, without regard to caste. The band forthwith struck up, and at S:S5 o'clock on Friday afternoon Harrison had achieved his own nomination. A large portrait In oil of Harrison was let down from the back gallery, inscribed "The Union League's Candidate." Horace Porter leaped on a chair and shook his handker chiei to some ladies. A large white hat n as tossed to and lro among the audience. The evidences of approbation were about as strong as at the nomination of other candi dates in other conventions. The Blaine men weie generally silent, and the leaders or the Harrison forces were around among the crowd seeking each other and shaking hands. The total vote, as counted among the re porters, was almost exactly according to the prediction of Hiscock made to me the first day of the convention, that Harrison had not less than 630 votes. I related this predic tion, audit was generally scouted at It turns out to have been prudent The private influence of Harrison was considerable in this convention, many of the best men in it becoming attached to him from personal acquaintance. Mrs. Har rison's niece married Lieutenant Paiker, of the navy, and a nne-toued young man who had experience in the Samoan Islands, and who was needed as the naval attachee at the Berlin conference. Beturning on the steam ship, the Lieutenant and Chris Magee, of Pittsburg, were taken with one another. Bespect for Parker led to Magee espousing Harrison's cause. How Harrison Made Many Friends. George Boyd, ot the Pennsylvania Bail road, was appointed to tako the Harrison family upon various excursions, and his ac quaintance with them caused him to be a warm advocate of the President's renoml nation. In this still way the Harrisons have reached into the Vandeibilt. the Pullman and numerous other families, and obtained respect and confidence. That is why so many of Blaine's best supporters were found on Harrison's side. Theie are no deep scars left after this con flict Harrison is believed to have enjoined his men here to avoid personalities and to seep tue tone oi trie controversy above the gutter. He was, in any event, the next choice after Blaine in two-thirds of the Blaine States. There is no such hostility to be anticipated to the Harrison ticket irom the Blaine side as might have met the Blaine ticket irom the Harrison Bile. The remark is commonly made by persons coming home from the convention that this will be the last time that a President will be supported for a second term by the aid of his own constabulary. A resolution to that effect would have been offered and carried In this convention but for tlio plea that It would be an Insult to President Harrison, Geoeoe Aueed Towssxsd. REGRET FOR BUI The Prevailing Sentiment .Among the Bepublicans at Washineton. CAUSES OF HIS DEFEAT. His Resignation at Such a Time Blamed as Political Suicide. HARRISON'S VICTORY A BIG ONE When He Had. Such Unusual Odds to Fight and Yet Fulled Out. THE HOODOO ON THE BLAINE MANSION .'SPECIAL TELEGRAPHIC LETTXB. Bureau or The Dispatch, Washisotos, D. 0 June 10. ( "2fever before were there so many dis tinguished political corpses made with one blow of the ax," was the remark of a Re publican Representative this afternoon as the bulletin was read in the House an nouncing the triumphant nomination of Harrison at Minneapolis on the first ballot, with well onto 100 votes to spare. "Look at them," he continued, "first, the Plumed Knight lies lifeless upon his bier, after an exciting, fitful political career such as comes to few men. Stretched beside him are Piatt, Quay, Clarkson, Dudley, Warner Miller, Alger, Foraker and a host of lesserlights, and even McKinley, the young Uapoleon of protec tion, makes a narrow escape on account of permitting the use of his name in the futile effort to defeat Harrison." It is agreedjupon all sides that the victory is a most remarkable one. Notwithstand ing the apparent test vote of last night on the report of the Committee on Credentials, it could scarcely be believed here to-day that Harrison could win. As the balloting besjan this afternoon I sat in the House be side that sterling Republican and Harrison man Hon. J. D. Taylor of Ohio, and even at so late an hour that gentleman said he did not see now such experienced and scillful organizers as Piatt and Quay and Clarkson could be beaten. What Caused Blaine's Defeat. Everyone admitted the strength of Har rison, and recognized the wonderful steadi ness of his lines all through the battle, but everyone hoped or feared that at the last moment the great strategists who won the victory for Harrison in 18S8 would come in with some grand coup, some sort of charge or flank movement not suspected, and wrest victory front the almost evident victors. "What did it?" is the general question, and the answer is usually in accord with the sympathies of the person Questioned. First and foremost Harrison's worst enemies con fess that his strong and pure administration (pure exoept for the fact that he has kept some perioni in high office against whom serious charges nave been made) was a tower of strength to him. With this also came the force of the working pol iticians who hold office by his gilt. These formed a solid nucleus around which to marshal all the President's friends not In office, those delegations or Individual dele gates instructed for him, and full of sincere admiration for him, and supporting him be cause or his dignified and confident conduct of his office. TAese aro the reasons given wny the Harrison forces were so unswerv ing. The Fiesident was their general, and all they had to do was to follow him. No Tool Wanted bjr Anybody. On the other hand, there wastbe.disorgan lzing fact, well-nigh fatal of itself, that tho opposition originated among offended lead ers, and that the great name of Blaine was simply used to conjure with. Granted all his popularity, even his most ardent devotees did not like to think that the beginning of his candidacy, after he had announced him self as out of the field, was arranged In the councils of a few brilliant political man agers who fixed upon him to do the work of slaughtering Harrison. This sent an icy chill to the marrow of the Blaine movement In its inception, and the great wonder is that it developed so much heat and retained its fervency to the last. Add to this fact Blaine's own sad mistake of retiring Irom the Cabinet on the eve ot the convention, while still professing that ne was not a candidate, giving the President a parting slap in the face by his note of res ignation, absolutely insulting in its curt ness, and thus indirectly but unequlvocnllv announcing that he would lend hand and name In every way possible to the defeat of the man who had him as chief counsellor for more than three years, and you have the last and most-to-be-rezretted reason why Blaine the giant and his supporting anti Harrison giants, have gone down in one awtul wreck together. Blaine's Resignation a Fatal Blow. Blaine's resignation, in the circumstances which surrounded it, has caused him such adverse criticism as cannot be described. I have heard a scoie of eminent Republicans say to-day that it did him untold injury, not only as a man, but as a candidate, and that that alone probably cost him the nomina tion. It was a surprise to his warmest friends. It was a defiance that was little less than disgraceful, under the circum stances. It was his last dramatio cojip, at which the groundlings laughed, bnt which brought tears to the eyes of the serious and thoughtful who saw in it a lack of Judgment which was a sure indication of a weakened mental grasp. I have tho most direct information from Minneapolis that Quay, Clarkson and Piatt, while they made desperate attempts to turn the resignation to good account, agreed in their Innermost councils that the act was a reckless one and that it added immeasura bly to the difficulty of their task. The pity that Is felt here for Blaine Is be yond description. It is not mere sympathy it is u pity that Is absolutely painful. On all sides and from all sorts of people it comes in expressions more or less eloquent, but always heartfelt. A few malignant minds in whose memories the btings of Blaine's partisanship or opposition still rankle give vent to feelings of gratification occasionally, but they are frowned upon as though they spoke ill of th mighty dead. A Crashing B'ow to a Proud Alan. How crushing the below must be to Blaine may be easily conceived when it is remem bered that the most humiliating emotion a proud man can Invite from his fellow men is their pity. I saw In the House this after noon and in the hotels this evening tears in the eyes of many a strong man, not on ac count of the defeat of Blaine, but on account: of the manner or his taking off from public life. No one thinks he will ever be heard from ugain, In an official capacity, in the councils of the nation. Had he not given way to a last ambition to try once more to catch that lgnus tatuus which has lured so many great men to destiuction he might have remained peacefully in his high office until he retired with his chief. Such a retirement would not have been dramatic, it would not have been quite Elaine-like, but it would have finely rounded out his career, and would have lett no cloud upon his passing away. As it 1 the only llfe he has known is crushed out of him by an avalanche of criticism tempered only by a pity that is more Insufferable than Boom. Ho ono need Bay that Quay and Piatt ana Clarkson led Blaine to his destruction. I happen to know from the best authority that Blaine was a most willing co-partner with those eminent "conspirators." At the first wink ne nodded. Possibly he may have oeen urgeu on uy tno snubs that had been heaped on him by members of the adminis tration, but certainly he cannot pose, and his friends cannot pose him, as a great man who has been made a victim of the deceptive wills of wicked, scheming, unprincipled politicians. Never to See Washington Again. To do that would be' to place Blaine on a plane of weakness lower than would be credited by his worst enemy. With suoh mental eyes as he now possesses he wont into the movement for his nomination with those eyes wide open. However, all this does not change the pathos of his political wiecking. It is 'safe to say that lie will nover again set his foot in Washington. His friends say they gieatly fear the effect of to-day's work upon his health or body and -mind, and predict that he will either be come a sort of recluse 1n his Maine home, or that he will go abroad and remain for the rest of ni- lire. After discussion of the excltlmr, and one might say.trala events of the day at Minne apolis, speculation turns to the effeot upon the party of the nomination of Huvi son. Will there be a truce between him and Ouay, Piatt, Clarkson, tho majority of the National Committee, and the rest of that aggregation of national, State and local managers, who, while they have failed to defeat Harrison in convention, may not raise a single ' hand to save him from slaughter at the polls! Weeks ago one of these great managers said to me that Harrison might win at Min neapolis against all their opposition, as they could not concentrate their forces, but that without their assistance he could not suc ceed in November. What may be done o conoilinte them- is problematio, but that Harrison will attempt to gain their good will and hearty support may be confidently predicted. , In No Danger of a Swelled Bead, -." Harrison is in no danger of getting tne swelled head. While he may be as harmless as a dove, he Is also as wise as a serpent. It may be found that he la quite enough of a practical politician for this difficulty, as he was for the difficulty bf the convention. If he cannot win them.he will take the shrewd est possible steps to win without them. He has powerful friends, and his brilliant success or to-day against such odds as no former President ever' had to fight will add Immensely to his strength. Shrowd men who nave opposed him predict that the reaction in his favor on account of his unprecedented victory will make him within a few weeks by all odds the strongest candidate the Bepublicans could have. If. with this added sentimental strength, he can also bring to his assistance all the now disaffected element, theie Is no telling what may be effected in the way of national enthusiasm, and the more especial ly if the Democratic factions remain at war In New York, as it Is predicted tney will. Harrison Is a firm believer In himself and his destiny. He believes he is destined by Divine Providence to enact a great role.and mac tue roie is not "played out." as one statesman put it to-day, and not at all In tending to be irreverent: "Harrison bfelievos that God Almighty intended him to do great thingB, and he constantly says to himself, What can any enemy do against me and God AlmightyJ' " An .Administration That Wears Well. It cannot be otherwise than that Har rison's administration will grow upon the public It has been full of exciting and threatening events. No other administra tion since the war basa had to deal with so many delicate and dangerous questions. He has handled all of them with as fine Judg ment as probably any man of this age could have done. I sav "he," because he has done it all himself. Never in this republic has there been so thorough a one-man admin istration. He has kept his hand on the lever in every department. His Cabinet Ministers have been his clerks. While treat ing them oourteonsly, he has used his own Judgment in all matters outside of mere routine. In trivial or Important affairs he has maintained that some unruffled Im perturbability and confidence which mark his demeanor at chskch, in his carriage, in his walks or at his ordinary receptions. His calmness, his mental content, his certainty of himself, under all circumstances make him not only an exceptional man, but one dis tinctively exceptional among exceptional men. .While there is no personal magnetism in this cold, introspeotive, almost insuffer ably self-reliant human creation, there is a wonderfnl magnetism in his strong, cautious, confident, successful grasp of men and things, and this, with the Waterloo to day of the many Napoleons who opposed him, may lead him to viotory against even the mighty force which will be brought against him in November. The Hoodoo on Blaine's House. Of course, it was Inevitable that the old story of the haunted Blaine mansion, and the Ill-luck that attends all who inhabit it, should come to the surface again, since the latost owner has been sent from it to bis political grave. Its story is well known and need only be referred to. It was a club- bouse when Barton S. Key had his Intrigue with Mrs. Sickles, 'wife of General Sickles. , From a window in it Key and Mis. Sickles, who lived across the square, were wont to signal to each other. In front of It General Sickles shot Key to death. In the same room where Blaine has been sleeping, and also often languishing an Invalid, lay Will iam H. Seward when he was stabbed by the assassin Payne, and there Frederick Seward was beaten half to death, and a United States armv officer was stabbed, while attempting to intercept Payne. From that time to the date of Blaine's pm chase and occupation of the place it has DC ia.n f.iioht.ort K.. rr n.nmln.nt and for some reason no housekeeper could 'wi. .uuuwi.f.. ... ... n. VU..HI..I, UUDUUi person, be Induced to remain for very long, rent free. Since Blaine's advent there he has lost his health. His favorite son. Walker, lipped while alighting from a carriage in front of it, broke his leg, and died from the effects of the injury. Mrs. Copplnger, the Seoretary's daughter, died suddenly.a grand child followed her, and several other near relatives went to their graves. Young Jim Blaine had a runaway match with Maria Nevin, a divorce and scandal upon scandal ensued, and now the Secretary resigns his office in a most unaocountable manner and leave the city, only to hear that his latest Snlitical hope Is laid In the grave. Only Mrs. lalne and her sister, "Gail Hamilton," seem to be impervious to the evil influences of the place. Of course these are mere coincidences, but they are coincidences that are sure to make tho ignorant and superstitious believe that tho house Is given up to baleful spirits. Doubtless the property will now be for rent or sale at a low price. Who will occupy or buy? LionTKEB.

Contributions Reach the Scene of the late Flood Too Slowly. LAST ESTIMATES OP THE LOSSES At TitusYille Will Place Them at More Than a Million and a Half. A MIXINTHEIDENT1FICATI0N OF BODIES IPBOM A BTATT COBBESPONDEST.f Titdsville, Pa., June 10. The sensa tion of the day, if anything can happen here now coming under that head, was the finding of five more bodies, victims of the late ' horrible flood and fire. The circum stances connected with the discovery of these bodies was sensational in the extreme. Mr. Bingenheimer, the only one left of a family of eight children and a wife, was at an early hour this morning searching in the ruins of his home when he was horrified by discovering under a pile of debris, where the sitting room of his house had been, the blackened and half decomposed body of his 10-year-old son Harry. The features were perfect and there is not the slightest'doubt as to the identity. Here, then, is certainly a mystery, for on Monday last Mr. Bingenheimer identified a body as this same boy, and the corpse was buried with his other children in the same grave. There were 11 people in the Bingen heimer residence at the time of the disaster. They were Mrs. Bingenheimer and her eight children in one part, and Mrs. Jacob Haehn and Delia Rice, her mother. On Monday last nine bodies were taken from the ruins, while the remains of the last mentioned women were picked np some distance below. Parts of Bodies Dug Out. Besides the body found there to-day, Mr. Bingenheimer brought to the surface a hand, two feet and two hips. The hands are not those of the same person, and the hips not of the same size. This proves that they are from separate persons, but as some of the bodies previously recovered were minus members, this proves nothing. The finding of the boy, however, conclusively proves that at least one ,of tho Whalon children, who with its lather, mother and sister died in the adjoining house, was burled with the Bingenheimer family. There was not suffi cient care taken in marking and numbering the bodies when taken from the ruins. The surviving members of tho Whalon family are greatly grieved and shocked at the dis covery of the mistake, bnt the health offi cers very properly refuse to allow the graves to be opened. The other bodies recovered were those of Miss Nellie Qulnn, aged 17, and Mrs. Susan O'Maia. 'J hey were both found within 40 feet of each other in the rear of John Breon's restaurant, on South Franklin street. This is nearly in the center of what Is left of the flooded district, and great in dignation is expressed regarding the matter. Bodies Found fu the Bobbish. It certainly does seem curious that the heap of rubbish under which the putrid re mains weie found should not have been examined sooner than six days after it had been washed there. The place is only a square and a half from tho residences of the unfortunates. The bodies were discovered by Mr. Brown who, while-looking out of his back window, saw a swarm of flies hovering over the spot. When Mr. Qulnn saw the body the stricken old man was completely overcome and had to be carried from the spot. It t as truly a sad scene. A more is on foot to have the Councils ex tend the Are limits. If this is done it will prevent any buildings being rebuilt except of brick. This plan is looked on with much favor by all with whom I have talked. There is plenty of room elsewhere in the city-for small wooden dwellings and tene ments and the sites made vacant by tho flood will mako fine locations for industrial plants and at the same time place house holds on higher and safer grounds both from flood and fire. Good Order Krpt by the Soldier. The soldiers of Company K are attending strictly to business and the best of order pie vails. The bars remained closed nntil yesterday, when they again resumed busi ness, but are very careful regarding their sales. The total number of bodies now recovered is 58. Subscriptions fell off to-day, only about $1,000 being lecelved, while the appli cations for aid and assistance Increased nearly half. The city needs all the help it can get, and there should be no cessation from any quarter in thematter of donations. The total cash subscribed is now $16,000. The actual damage is not 1 cent less than $1,500,000. Just for a flyer I received yester day a tew opinions from leading citizens re garding this matter. John L. McKinney said $1,500,0W was a low estimate, while his brother, C. J. McKinney, contended that $2,OC0,0O0 would not cover It. Jos. Seep said ne never realized, tne actual loss in all its vast magnitude until he went over the ground, and was certain he could see fully Jl.500,000 gone. Estimates Place the Lou at 81,500,000. Hon. W. B. Benodict said it was nonsense to place the loss at less than $1,600,000 and that was a low estimate. Mr. M. C. Wilton, always conservative, first said $1,000,000, but Instructed me last night to raise that to $1, 500.000. Mayor E. O. Emerson, Hon. Jesse Smith. M. N. Allen and Frank Tack all said $1,000,000, while President McNaughton of the Select Council, Junius Harris and Roger Sherman gavo me $1,500,000 figures. Louis K. Hyde, Cashier or the Second National Bank, thought $800,000 was about correct. The Coroner's Jury has adjourned one week when they will bring In a formal ver dict and adjourn sine die. Most of the re fineries will rebuild at once with the excep tion of the Crescent. Mr. Schwartz, the owner, say he does not know yet what he will do. Out ot 40 iron tanks and stills he has bnt two left. The others all lie at various points between here and the Allegiieny river. The landlords have mostly decided to rent for terms less than a year, consequently quarters were yesterday secured for many of the homeless. One man went with an adjuster yesterday to settle his insurance and not even a vestige of the lot conld be found, the creek having Its course there now. This Is the case in many instances. Buffalo and Harrlsb-irg were heard from yesterday, large and numerous boxes of nrst class goods arriving from those places. The contents consisted mostly of men's and children's books, shoes and clothing. The people hero look forward to the future with hope, tinged, of course, with anxiety, but if the outside world remembers Tltusville as it has always remembered others all will bo well. Four bodies are yet known to be missing. Pettit. FIFTY OIL CITY VICTIMS.

T., aim who was employed here by the Oil City Electric Company. He was doing noble rescuing work when killed, William Zlm gives the'ntartltns details of how four young women from Palace Hall made arrangements Sunday for self-destruction rather than become victims of the flames. They rushed np the hill when the fire came, thoroughly frightened and thoroughly convinced that the whole town was doomed and that their escape from death by fire was Impossible. V hen the carpenter reached the point where they were he found them all on their knees, with blanched faces and lips and tongnes almost paralyzed, offering up what they believed to be their last prayer. One of them held a revolver in her hands as she piayed. The carpenter took it Irom her and urged the young woman to get up and go on. THE WORK GOING ON.
