The Pittsburx Horror


PIT TsBURe, PA, July 29.-Thousands of
people are again visiting the scene or the recent
great disaster to-day, which has been the case
since its occurrence. At Butchers run As
shadows crept over the sad precincts, the scene
was peculiarly dismal. The thousands of wish
tors who crowded the ruins during the day had
turned from the scene of death and destruction
and In some portions of the district reigued the
silence OF the tomb. In others careless voices of
children sounded in close proximity to deyas-
tated homes, which are now in heaps of shape
less ruins, and which doubtless conceal a large
number OF bodies not yet discovered. Rumors
were current last evening that a man and child
had been taken alive from the ruins, but they
could not be traced 10 a reliable source.
The captain of the steamer l.. @. Mccormick
reports that he passed three dead bodies float
ing IN the Ohio river about - miles below the
city, but was unable to reach them. The Loss
10 the estate of A. Hoeyeler, ON Butcher g ran.
VIII reach SIS 900; the loss OF G. Hoeveler will
reach $1,000.
The Chronicie says, editorally, this morning.
that one OF the most remarkable circumstances
connected with che great flood is the fact that
no list Of the injured appears. The lists as
published read almost invariably "deadn or
missing" In the terrible rushing torrent which
swept down the numerous runs there WAS no
MIDDLE ground, and for those who came in its
course there was only one chance-"sink or

leaves no list of manned or wounded and along
It's raging pathway the only issue is life or
