Lack of water is hampering the task of putting out the numerous fires, while gas fumes are hindering the soldiers and gendarmes who are searching for victlvs. Two hun- dred bodies have been recovered, and there is little likelihood that any more persons will be resoued -alive as the cries of the wounded amid the wreck- age which were heard throughout yes- terday have now died out altogether. It is still impossible to estimate the total number of persons killed, but sever- al hundred were wounded, many of them hopelessiy. Great numbers of them have been removed to'the American hos- pital founded by Dr. Reglna Flood Keys, of Buffalo, N. Y., which, some- what removed from the scene of the ex- plosion, escaped with slight injuries.

Most of the time she remain- €d indoors at the home of her sister, Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson, who was the ar- tists' model for the famous “Gibson Girl.” There she received reporters, photograph- ers and social callers. She auswered many letters and then went for a walk. In her interview, Lady Astor made clear her opinion that home should come first with a woman and then politics, which, she belleved all of her sex should enter, at least to the extent of voting in- telligently. She ' sald she considered teaching children the most important thing in the world. Learning that Lord Balfour had ac- cepted an earldom, she sald the only rea- son he did so was because he had be- come too old to labor in the house of commons, Jocosely, she remarked that nobody in his right mind would enter the house of lords. Turning to her husband with the query: “Would they, my lord?" Lord Astor shook his head smilingly. Defending prohibition, Lady Astor said “Let the rich drink If they want to, it would hurt no one but themselv She thought lquor dulled the brain, and for that reason disliked it. “If you think the people of America want drink back, put it to a vote,” she said. “but yowll mever get it.” “Da you mean the liquor or the vote?” “The vote,” she replied. Lady Astor expressed opposition to the bonus. but favored all possible aid to the isabled and to all ex-saldiers in the matter of finding employment for them. “Men ought not to be paid for fighting for their country,” she thought.

Lamont, of J. P. Morgan and company, who presided over the ses- sions, spoke opt istically of the meet- ing, ' but said he was unable to discuss the work of the committee until after its conference with Senor De La Huerta. Other members asserted that a suc- cessful termination of the committee’s ef- forts would go a long ways toward re- storing confidence in Mexico, and there- by pave the way for recognition, Besides the French and Belgian groups those attending the meeting were Sir William Wiseman, representing Kuhn Loeb and company, and Vivian H.

At the close of a session of the joint sub-committee on wage contract negoti- ations S. D. Warriner, spokesman for the operators, said: “We informed representatives of the anthracite miners, with whom we have been in conference since March 15, that it was our firm conviction that wage and other demands which would result in an increase in the price of coal, could not be granted. On the contrary, our attitude was that ther must be a sub- stantial reduction in wages. “Developments sinh: these neghtia- tions began have only served to confirm the opinion already expresses by the producers of anthracite that the price Was too high. Not €ven suspension of production has served to stimulate sales. “We are faced by the practical diffi- culty that the consumer will not pay the price for coal that we are required to ask in order to maintain even the pres- ent costs.” DR.
