Mirwavkke, January 16 —Three more bodies were recovered to-day, making & total of thirty-one taken from the ruilns, When the safe was opened thia afternoon, there were nu- merous papers and documents and three blank bocks, but no register, no transfer hook, no memorandum of the guests or employes could be found. Mr. Antisdel hurrledly threw the matter into a box and basket, and with his men left the scene at once. The theorles advauced as to the cause of the disappearance of all the important volumes are numerous, but none are satisfactory. & In view of ths fact that papersand books of every deseription and kind are found In every direction, only partially consumed, the vanish- ing of such solid books as the reglster and its companion Is regarded as mys- terious and unexplainable. Other books known to have been in the of- fice aro found In part, but nothing to - | show that which would now be prec- ious heyond all price ever existed, de- mands mos: searching investigation.
