The governor said:

"What do you mean," said the gov

"You take the census statements
which have been published in tho pa

Bald the governor, which reply was
followed by a howl of applause,
"We aro not Indians, Two yeats

TWENTY-SIX ARE
STILL MISSING
No Bodies. However, Are Found in
Ruins of New York Fire Tarrant
& Co. Criminally Liable.
By I ulii'lte IMle lrom Tho Associated l'usa,
, New Vork, Oct. III. A levlslon made
today of those persons missing, and
thought to have perished In tho ex
plosion and file tit Tarrant et Co.'a drug
house, shows twenty-six utmttouuted
for. Of this number four aie not
known at the iiddtesseij given by , the
persons reporting them as missing.
Out of the whole number, eight are put
down by the police as employes of Tar
tan t iVr Co.
Not a single body bail up lo 10 o'clock
tonight been taken out of the ruins,
though what looked like parts of bodies
have been dug out. It begins to look
us If what remains are In the mass of
debris which still cumbers the place
will be totally unrecognizable as of
human composition, even .should the
workmen find them. This i.s because a
tremendous heat, caused by the ex
plosion and the fire and the fusing of
materials which running together form
a mass of all sorts of stuff. For In
stant e, what was supposed to be paits
of bodies taken fiom the itilns last
night turned out on examination at the
morgue to be blackened pieces of melt
ed gum arable. Again, today another
mass was found which the workmen
Hist thought to be human llesh, but is
now thought to be melted rubber. The
searchers have found In the ruins ot
the Home-Mude hotel a number of ar
ticles .such as hooks, a handkei chief, a
cigar-holder, etc., but whether their
owners escaped or not Is unknown.
The authorities In the meantime are
pushing the Investigation into the
amount of explosives stores in the
building with a view to prosecutions.
Along this line secretary Augustus F.
Doherty of the fire department In
speaking of the cause of the explo
sion said to-day:
"The combustibles carried by Tar
rant & Co. were largely in excess ot
what were allowed them under tho
law and their permit granted by the
fire department and in consequence of
this fact they have violated the law.
Hy violating the terms of the penult
they committed n misdemeanor, which
not only vitiates their Insurance
policies but .lenders them criminally
liable and responsible for the damage
to life and property as a result of the
explosion. The lire Insurance com
panies cannot be held for the dam
age."

THE DUTY OF DEMOCRATS
To Remain at the Polls in Good
Strong Relays Until the Count Is
Complete nnd if Fraud la Attempt
ed Stop It Then and There H
Says the Democrats Have Won the
Fight and Will Not Be Defrauded
Out of Victory by Election iTudgei.
lly Kxclu'bi' Witc from The Associated Pieu.
Chicago, Oct. 31. Senator Jones,
chairman of the democratic national
committee, speaking of Croker's recent
nuggestlon that "Democratic voters
congregate about the polling places on
the evening of election day count noses
and then, If the election returns for
Bryan do not tally with the returns
go Into tlie polling places and throw
those fellows In charge of tho returns
Into the street." said:
"I don't see anything tvrons -with
that suggestion. Senator Hill I be
lieve suggested a baseball bat as being
peculiarly appropriate to render jus
tice to a corrupt election judge. In
my opinion the best way is for the
Democrats to be at the polls when
they are open and to remain there in
good, strong relays until the count is
complete. It should bo tho duty ot
these Democrats to watch the judges
and the count and to see to It that
no fraud Is committed and if any
rraua is attemptea to stop it then and
there.
"The Democratic party ii opposed
to violence, but at the same time 1
feel -warranted In saying that the
Democrats fully intend to reap the
fruits of their victory. If intimidation
is attempted at the polls or fraudu
lent counting tried by election judges
there will be Democrats in the vicinity
all ready to take just such action as
may be necessary to stop It..
"There will be neither intimidation
at tho polls, ballot box stuffing nor
fraudulent counting this year. If this
If ijjtteiiipted R wJH be stopped .there
and then. And If anyone gets hurt
in the process of prevention I hope It
will not be the honest man who Is
doing his duty fairly and well. The
Democrats have made an honest cam
paign. We have appealed to the heads
and hearts of the American people. We
have won the fight and, by heaven, we
will not be defrauded out of our vic
tory by the chicanery of election
judges. If our Republican friends will
be honest there will be no trouble but
Intimidation at the polls or attempted
dishonesty in the counts will bo met
by such methods as may be neces
sary and entirely effective."
