 BOSTON, June 13, 1sso To Chief of Police, Stonington:
 1 The body of Mo- is my boy. Will call to-
 morrow. (Signed) W. M. STEVENS | It is not known who was in charge of the child, but the recognition is complete. This | afternoon MT. A. P. Dix, of Brooklyn gen. I tleman doing business at 27 Wall street, ar rived here in search of his three children. He 1 was accompanied by his brother. It would | appear that Mrs Dix and her three children, l their ages ranging from to 12 years, and
 their nurse left New York on the steamer l Narragansett. The mother has been saved,
 but there is not the slightest trace of the 1 three children or the nurse. MT. Dix was taken to the morgue this afternoon, but did not or course recognize any one Cnore Ills | condition of mind can be better imagined ! than described. MT. Dix also went out to the l wreck, but was unable to discover anything ! regarding the whereabouts of his family The cutter Dexter arrived here to- night and brings word from Captain Scott vessel and finds the saloon deck burned 1 through in several parts. Captain Scott says l the wreckers can see into the staterooms on the main deck. No bodies were found there or elsewhere. The freight is being taken out I rapidly, and several pieces of baggage have lower cabin. The keel is only cut through to the foreroom. It is thought there are not any more bodies. The tide was running very strong.
 There has been one glad heart at least in Stonington to-day. It is MT. J. Bleidoron, of 132 Nassau street, New York. He had a nephew on the Narragansett named Willie Reinho1d, aged 13, who was going to Need ham, Mass. Early to-day MT. Bleidoron was waiting in the company's office here after a fruitless search for the boy, when telegram was put into his hand which read: Willie is safe at Needham" It was source of re- lief to the gentleman to know that his young relative was safe. A rumor was current here to-day that Alfred A. Reed of East Green wich, was one of the drowned. Careful in quiry was made and 1t was learned that Mr. Reed was alive, having got ashore in safety It has been ascertained that Mir. L. Parks and Mrs. R. Fish, of Mystic, who were sup posed to have been drowned, were recovered alive yesterday and forwarded to their homes This morning metallic life boat belonging to the Narragansett was found at North Hammock Rock, near Fishers Island She was bottom up, with life preservers dashed in her. During the day anxious in- quiries have been made by MT. McBirney, of Atlanta, Ga, for children of the name of Chilston. None have been heard of yet.
 Notwithstanding the fact that many inqui- ries have been made of the officials here as to the probable cause of the accident, nothing can be obtained of satisfactory character. They positively refuse to answer any such questions. It is generally believed here that the Narragansett will be raised, as it is thought that, barring a heavy storm, she ing until all her freight is taken out. THE LOST AND MIssING-AN INCOMPLETE LIST
