THIRTY-TWO ARE MISSING. Work of Cleaning Away Ruins of New York’s Disaster Proceeding Siowly. New York, Oct. 31—All the efforts of the authorities are now directed to cleaning away the ruins of the Tar- rant and other buildings wrecked by the great explosion in an effort to find out how many bodies were buried in them, and to find out as far as pos- sible what was the cause of the ex- plosion. The search for the dead was rewarded by the finding of the re- mains of H. A. Schmidt and the dis- covery of what looks to be the bodies of three other people. At 10 o’clock firemen working on the mass brought to light a portion of a woman's foot and the top of a crushed-in skull. The skull had long brown ‘hair attached and is supposedly that of a woman, During the day Supt. Dooner had a large force of men tearing down piles of debris and removing it. The fire burned all day and toward night was practically to the end of the mass ot debris at Washington and Warren streets. The fire extends back for some distance and is burning fiercely. The ruins are so hot that but few can get at them and the men have to work at outside walls and debris in the streets. A revised list made up to 10 o’clock last night shows thirty-two persons still missing. Chief Croker, of the fire department, said that the work of digging out the dead had hardly begun. He believes that the greater number will be found on the streets where the falling walls buried them and the fire charred their bodies. He believes, too, that the buildings contain more bodies than most per- sons will admit. COAL ADVANCES. Twenty-five Cents Per Ton Added to the Price. New York, Oct. 31.—The tidewater prices for coal to be established by the Philadelphia & Reading company will be 25 cents a ton higher than the pres- ent quoted rate.

Schumann-Heink, who has re- turned to New York, after singing in the varicus musical festivals, found that the fame of her drinking song had preceded her. Whether she sang Mo- zart or Wagner, there was always a demand to hear the Donizetti brindisi, and until she added that number her triumph was never complete. Next to this feature, Mme. Schumann-Heink found the public in the towns outside New York interested chiefly in the number of her children. Whether it was eight or nine, or ten, or, perhaps, only six little Heinks and Schumanns that she had left behind her in Dres- den puzzled and absorbed the local chroniclers of her movements. The contralto is likely to have the same experience in most of the towns that she visits on her concert tour previous to the opening of the opera company’s season.—New York Sun.
