THE LATEST.
SEVENTY-FIYE LOST.

The most careful compilation of the
probable loss OF life at the NewhalI
House catastrophe makes the number of
victims not less than Is. On the morn
ing OF the fire II bodies were taken to
the morgue. Since that time 8 of the
survivors of the disaster died from in
luries received by jumping from the
windows. OF the 46 bodies, or rather
remains supposed to represent 46 bodies,
there were subsequently identified those
OF Robert HOWE, David Fl. Martelle
and VIM. E. Wiley. To the list
OF survivors were added the
names OF A. FL. ClaHin, who turned
up at Chicago; Ida Daniels, who was
enormously reported among the missing;
Capt. Edward Coates, who has been
heard from at Pontiac, Mich, and I.
G. Campbell, who telegraphed from
Omaha, Neb., that he made good his es-
cape. Adding these four to the names
OF the saved, and subtracting the names
of the eight who died since the fire, the
list of those known to be saved foots up
1O2. These figures leave four persons
to be accounted for. Whether they
made good their escape and left the city,
thus being beyond the reach of the re-
porters, or whether their charred bodies
are yet under The ruins, is matter of
conjecture; still they have to be reported
as missing. These compilations have
been made upon the basis Of TT persons
in the hotel at the time of the fire, ITO
guests and 81 employees, as given by
Ben Tice, the chief clerk of the hotel.
The recapitulation would then be as fol-
lows:

Brother and Sister

The remarkable reunions we now and
then hear of, of friends and relatives who
recognize each other after having been
separated for years, are almost sugges-
tive of the recognitions of another life,
But there is pathos enough in such meet
ings even when altered looks disappoint
the eyes of affection. A touching scene
of this sort was witnessed on the steam
boat dock recently on the arrival Of the
City of Hartford. A man, short in sta
ture and about forty years old, had been
waiting On the dock for a length of time
to meet an emigrant sister, who was to
arrive by the boat. When nearly all of
the passengers had disappeared from the
vessel, he approached the patrolman
on duty there, and told him he guessed
his sister didn't come on the steamer. A
short investigation, however, discovered
a little old German woman carting her
baggage from the vessels deck to the
wharf. Noticing the resemblance be-
tween the man and woman the patrol
man limited to him that the German
woman must be his sister. Striding up
in front of h9r, he said. in his own Ian

which may throw light upon the civil

down with a club and carried off by her
accepted sutton, the welded pair, within
forty eight hours of the wedding, send a
cup of poison distilled from a hula-hula
tree to each and everyone of the brides

that he cannot become reconciled to the
marriage, he drinks the poison and dies;
but if he decides thathe will survive the
loss Of his intended wife, he throws away
the poison, and feels bound in honor
never 20 show the slightest sign of dis
appointment. By this admirable system
the husband is spared the pangs Of jeal-
ousy, and Is able TO live on friendly
terms with the surviving admirers of bis
