MORE ABOCT THE CHICAGO CALAMITY, NINETY DEAD BODIES RECOV:RED. The C.ty Already Rising from Its Ashes Partial Resumption of Business. There is great competition among the live business men of Chicago to obtain rooms and stores for the resumption of business. Tae Cook County National Bank, baving saved all its funds, resumed business yesterday. All of the banks, it is stated, will be able to resume, as the contents of the vaults have, without exception, been found uninjured. Measures Lave been taken for the immediate rebuilding of the Pa- citic Hotel. The two eight-cyli the Chicago Tritune are all for use as soon as steam can be applied. The financial prospect is hourly brightening. The Republic Insurance Company expects to pay every dollar of its risks. This gives assurance: that the home companies are in a better condi- tion than was at first anticipated. THE Ly are probably not so heavy as was at first repre- sented. ‘The total loss of grain is now definitely ascertained to be 1,600,000 bushels. Fonr v sels loaded with grain left for the East yester: and will continue, as there are fully 5,000,000 bushels now in store. Water was let in the south division yesterday afternoon, so all the populated portions of the city are now supplied. A MEETING OF TAE DANKERS of the city was held yesterday, at which Mr. Coolbaugh, the chairman, stated that the insur- anee companies woull be able to pay fifty per cent. upon the total amount of rasnrance losses. He expressed his individual opinion that the banks were solvent, and would pay every dollar of their indebtedness. The deposits amount to twenty or thirty millions, and of that sum, per- haps, in the aggregate, tw ve, thirty-five, or forty per cent. is immediately available. Im: mediate resumption was thought impracticable, but some plan should be adopted by which tae business of ity and country could be pro- tected, and facilities extended to business for the future. A committee was appointed to trame resolutions to be submitted tothe meeting. Sey- eral representatives of railroad lines being resent desired concert of action, and a comm't. Ee of four was appointed to confer with the rail- road rep Fesentatives. DEATHS PROM EXPOSURE. A great deal of suffering has occurred among the “people since Mon: wy might, who were obliged to camp ont on the prairie. Quite a nember of deaths have resuitd from penis The relief committee has impressed all kinds of vehicles to carry water and provisions to them, and are bringing them inte churches and szhool- houses on the west and south sides. RELIEF COMING. Immense quantities of provisions have arrived and Mayor Mason telegraphs that money con- tributions will now be more acceptable than sup- ples of food, A large soup house has becn erected and was ready to-day to issue 6,000 gal- lons daily. Shantics are being built for tem- porary occupation. Twenty car loads of pro- visions and ten thousand blankets have come from Cincinnati, and twenty car loads from St. Louis. Large quantities of provisions have ar- rived from other cities. All the railroads lead- ing out of Chicago are carrying free of charge such of the homeless as have friends in other places. The Common Council has passed an ordinance fixing the price of bread at eight cents for a loaf of twelve ounces, and fixing a penalty of $10 for every viclation of this ordinance. SUMMARY DEALING WITH SCOUNDRELS. The police continue to capture thieves, bu lars and incendiaries. ‘They generally deal wit them in @ summary manner, thus preventing them from causing further trouble. Forty-one persons were shot in making arrests night be- fore last. The station house is filled with pris- oners. The number of bodies recovered trom the ruins now reaches ninety.
