1 NEW YORK FIRE STILL BURNS Workmen Encounter Difficulty in Their Rearch for Buried Victimss TWO BODIES HAVE BEEN RECOVERED SO FOR Eatimates Which Place (Le Life Loxs us Renching Into Have Littls to Confirm Them an Vet All the efforts of ected to clearing | Ta and other | the gre ruins of the wrecked by the are away the hulldings yesterday, in to find Yodles purled in them to aln the cause of the explosion. The efforts of the searchers were rewarded this | eventng by finding the remains of Mr. | Hehmidt and the discovery of what looks | 1o be the bod of three other persons. | Hehmidt was an engravor and had an ofce on Warren street, The body could be seen,piu el down under n mass of twisted iron, but could not be gotten tonight. The identifica tion was made by a nephew of Schmldt. At the northwest coruer of the Tarrant butld- | iog & mass of clothing and Indiscriminate articles was cowe actoss and the mass was sald to be the bodles of three perrons. The firemen went to work with a will dig out the mass, and at 10 o’clock tonigh brought forth u portion of a woman's foot | and a placo of skull. The skull had brown | hatr attached, and 15 supposed to be that of & woman. Just beforo midnight a workman found a black cheviot coat in the exact spot where | the remains wers found. In the pocket were 4 cents and an application for mom- bership in the West End Republican elub. Shortly afterward in the same place an un recognizable mass of human flesh was found. A half of a coat was also found at this pla The laborers stopy work and & now gADE W arted. Suporintendent Oooner had a large force of men working as bard as possiblo tearing | down masses of debrls and removing it. | They worked all day and at nightfall w pructically to the end of tho mass. The fire extends back some distance and 18 yet burning. 1ife Hoth pector Brooks and Captain Wosterfelt were skoptical over the reported largo 10as of life. They both said they did | not expoct that more than four or five bodies | would bo found in the ruins. A revised list | up tolate tonight shows thirty-four persons | still wissing. At 10 o'clock a portion of a human trunk, probably the abdomen, was | dug out and a little later a brown canvas cout. There was nothing in the pockets, but four quill toothpicks. Still later the | firomen found another portion of a skull and a portion of a humsn back. Dr. Cromer of tho Health department, who examined the remains, sald they wore prob- ably afl from the same person as wers the foot and a portion of a skull found earlier. Tho remains were all found in the Tarrant building. Chief Croker of the fire department says the work of digging out the dead has hardly begun. Ho belleves the greater number of dead will be found on the strocts, where the falling walls buried them and the fire charred their bodies. He be- leves, too, that the fire contains more bodies than most persons will admit. Tt was at Warren and Greeno Streets that the most peoplo were killed, according to Chief Croker's theory. When tho crash camo and the walls fell in a heap they had no time to get out of the way. “When we get to that point in digging for the dead,” said Chief Croker, polnting | 10 the rulns under tho Atlantic cafe, “‘we will find many crushed and burned to death.” Walls Waver but Do Not Topple. To got to this point today was Impossi- ble. Not only were the rulns smoking to suffocation und hot, but the towering walls of Eppens, Smith & Weimann, seven sto- ries high, were threatening to collapse at euch breath of wind. Only two of those walls aro loft standing. The front and rear walls were blown down by tho explo- slon. Every time an elevated train passed theso walls trembled. Great cracks ap- peared in them that grew as the day ad- vanced. It will be no easy matter to re move these walls. Dynamite must be ap- plied and the man who places the dyna- mito under them must take his life in his bands. Dynamite must also be used In throwing down the walls of the Home Mado hotel in Greenwich street. With long poles and ropes workmen tried to overthrow these walls today. They would out how many and nace to | a at midoight Loss Probably Not Large. THUSIASTIC CONVERT re Thousands of Them elleve an this Woman Does, Mrs. Ira Knewlton of Butte, Montaua, s n most enthusiastic convert to the virtues of | Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets as a cure for | obatinate stomach trouble.

Nearly everything 1 ate woured on my stomach, sometimes I had cramps in the stomach which almost re- sembled spasms.

Stuart's Dywpepsia Tablets s tho satest a3 well us the simplest and most conven- fent remedy for any form of indigestlon, catarth of stomach, billousness, sour stomach, bloating after meals, sympathetic heart trouble.

Charles Francis Buckley, son of the proprietor, told a story today that con vinces the police that the walls fell on more than one victim When the explosion oc- urred twelve men and women, known as the nikht shift,” were asleep on the top floor There were many men and women who live out of town registered at the hotel.

Main, president and W . Allen treasurer of Tarrant & Co., that tho explosion was caused by gases generated from chemicals by the heat of the fire. There was one important point of difference however. The officers of Tarrant & Co. declare they did not heve in stock sufi- clent chemicals of any explosives character to cause the great damage. Their conten- tion 1s that the fire caused all of their varied stocks of drugs to vaporize and that the resultant gas did the stupendous work of destruction. The Fire department offictals do mot believe the ordinary stocks of drugs and chemicals of a wholesals drug- gt could develop an explosive force cap- able of hurling a steel and stone, seven story buliding into the air. The theory s galning ground the the explosion was caused by the action of water and firo on a great quantity of chlorate of potash stored fin the building. Unless they fore the sec Polic Law Was Violated. Fire Commissioner John J. Scannell said this morning: "I have no doubt that chemicals and olls far in oxcess of the quantity sanctioned by law were stored in that bullding. 1 suppose that keen watch was kept over tho offictal move- ments of inspectors and when It becams known that a visit might be made the quantity of explosives was depleted. After the bullt up again. Any one who has seen the result of the explosions that have oe- curred need not be told: that the law was violated. 1 cannot tell what action will be taken and you may be sure that a rigld investigation will be made and full pun- Isbment meted out to the gullty ones, if such a thing is possible. Tarrant & Co. have not been the only offenders. There are other similar concerns that pay little heed to the law. 1 have in mind one firm which carries a far greater quantity of explosives than that which was stered her We are constantly in fear trouble from that quarter and instructions have beer issued to take the greatest pre- cautlons in case of & fire occurring in the nelghborhocd of the bullding occupled by the firm to which I refer. No, I don't care to glve the name of that firm now. I shall have the matter looked after immediately.” Find First Body. The search for bodles in the ruins, which was kept up all night, was without result until after 8 o'clock this morning. Deputy Fire Chlef Ahearn repogted that the body of a woman had been located under the wreckage In the rear of the Home-Made restaurant and added that he thought about twenty bodles would be found at this point, as he was informed that many women were on the fire escapes of the restuurant a few minutes before the Tar- rant bullding collapsed and that they ran lnto the building just befcre the big explo- slon. Some of those reported missing returned o their homes during the night. Louise Joeckel, an employe of Tarrant & Co., was one of these. She sald she went to lunch at 1 o'clock, and, baving lunched some distance away from Tarrant's, had missed the explosion. She remained about the place for some time watching the fire. Michael Coughland of 133 Monroe street, who Lad been reported missing, went home duriug the night after his friends had been looking for him all day. Herman Borowltz, a bookkeeper, when he found he could not work any more, went to sce some acquaintances. He got bome lato at night to find that he had been repcrted missing. M. Spielkauf had been reported missing, but he got home all right late last night. At 9 o'clock thls morning about 1,200 men were at work on the wreckage and firemen were playing streams of water into the halt burned buildings on Wash- ington street below Warren. Seven fire engines were still on the ground. Following is the revised list of missing: Philip Amend, cigarmaker. James Alken. Mary Bradley, employed in printing office Ira C. Barnes, egg dealer.

Balti- more and Washington are certain to be taken into the fold and it has practically been decided to include Philadelphia In the next season’s circult. President Johnson has admitted that thfwgs have so shaped themselves that the Quaker city could be regarded practically as a certainty. “The American league will take in Bal- timore, Washington and Philadelphia,” sald President Ban Johnson after the meet- fog of the circuit committee, composed of Messrs. Somers, Manning, Comiskey and himself. “We will carry out the plans already an- nounced. The three clubs to be dropped have not been decided upon.

In this afdavit | Anderson denies certain Important state- | ments that he made on the witness stand | In the Powers trial. Anderson telle of mecting Attorney Campbell in Cincionatl and continues in his affidavit Colonel Campbell told me that Joe Owens d told him that 1 had said that Caleb { Powers, at the hotel In Barbourville, prior | to Junuary 2, had used these words, speak- | ing of Williain Goebel: “If we cannot get him killed and it is necessary 1 will kil him myself.” 1 sald to Mr, Campbell that I had never told any one any &ich thing and that Powers had not made such a statement to me. Camphell and Owens in- | sisted I had made such a statement, and 1 | afterward, upon Campbell's suggestion, | sat down ‘und wrote out a statement in which 1 included the foregolng statement of Powers, which was Untrue in every par- tieular, arid upon the triul of Caleb Powers JAwOL: o Itas @ fact, when i truth 1t was not a fact, I_remained in Cinclunat! after this con- versation with Mr. Caropbell and gome time after thay Mr. Arthur Goebel, in his store up etairs Wi the fourth floor, where 1 had gone at his request, agked me it Powers had not, in mw presence, at Barbourviile in Junuary, said me in substance, these words, referring to William Goebel:' “They say he wears a coat of mall, but it won't do him any good,’ or momething similar to that. 1 0ld Arihur Goebel that Powers had never sald anythin that sort in my presence to the best ot owy knowledge.
