Bills Approved-Nore Discussion on the
 Garbage Contract.
 A regular meeting of the Board of Health was held last evening Present, His Honor the Mayor presiding, Drs. Winchell, Linds- ley and Mr. Welch
 Bills for the month of June amounting to $3522 27 were approved
 Judge Robinson appeared before the Board in regard to the claims of Mir. Law rence the present garbage contractor He said as to the proposal to annul the present could not be annulled. When new contract was proposed he advised MT. Lawrence under the circumstances to put in another bid He had done so, and while MT. Blakeslees bid was the lowest and the Board had right to reject any or all bids, he thought that the Board should consider the fact that MT. Lawrence had been to good deal of expense under his old contract. The Judge said he had learned that MT. Lawrence's bid was as low as it was possible to do the work without loss, and if this was the fact then it appeared to him that the contract should be given to Mir. Lawrence.
 Mayor Bigelow said he did not like boys play in this matter The former contract was fairly made with MT. Lawrence, and it was fairly understood that if the Board saw fit to amend the contract with Mir. Lawrence at the end of one year, they had perfect right to do SO. MT. Lawrence had done his duty satisfactorily, but the Board had become satisfied that the system of removing the gar bage was all wrong, and they had therefore seen fit to annul the contract and make a new one.
 Judge Robinson said he had understood that the contract was made with the city and not with the Board of Health. This matter had gone by, and he thought that now the Board should give Mir. Lawrence's bid due consideration.
 After further discussion the Board ad- iourned to 4:30 o'clock this afternoon.

The Seawanhaka Disaster-Over Fifty
 Persons Thought to Have Been Lost
 Thirty Bodies Recovered-Sad Inc id ents
 -Horrifying Scenes on the In-Fated
 Vessel-Editor Dana's Statement-The
 Search for Victims.
 NEW YORK, June 29.-The frightful acci- dent in Hell Gate yesterday afternoon cast 8 pail of gloom over the city to-day. The story of the burning of the Seawanhaka filled every soul with horror. It is impossi- b1e to tell yet how many lives were lost. No record is kept of passengers as they go aboard It is thought, however, that be- tween thirty-fve and fifty persons perished. It is now stated that the disaster was caused by the bursting of fue in the boiler. Ad- iacent points on East river have been pa- trolled all day by police looking for wreckage and bodies of victims. Thirty bodies have been recovered thus far, of which thirteen are yet unidentified. Of the dead so far re- covered nine are men, eleven women and ten children. Twelve passengers known to have been on the boat are still missing. Three bodies picked up from the river this morning near the scene of the disaster were taken to the moreue and have been identified One was Theodore Gunther, 35 years old, gro cer of this city, who was on his way to visit friends at Great Neck, L. I. He is married and leaves a wife and family. The second was Clarence Vandewater, aged four, son of John Vandewater, of Glen Cove. The father jumped from the vessel with the child in his arms While in the water he lost his hold of it. The third body was negro's, IL
 There are many incidents of 8 sad and shocking character. Two of the drowned were Aaron D. Bennett and Mrs. Bennett. Mir. Bennett was 58 years of age and born in Connecticut Mrs Eveline D. Bennett was aged 52, and was born in Massachusetts. The remains have been taken in charge by friends Johnston Hawkins jumped from the boat with his wife and child. The last two were reported saved by friends who called at the morgue in search of MT. Haw- kins, who was still missing. The child had it's arm broken, and it is supposed that MT. Hawkins was so injured as to be unable to save himself. He was about 35 years of age, and of the firm of Stephen H. Mills $ Co.,, South street, ship chandlers. James H. Skidmore, jr., of Flushing and Great Neck, was drowned, and his body brought to the morgue this afternoon, where it was easily recognized by brother and friend. He was 23 years of age
