CINCINNATI, April 1T is now thought
that the contents of all the safes in the
court house are saved. The fire proof
material answered all requirements and
stood the terrible test very well. The
will safe Of the probate Office, in which
all the wills are kept, is in excellent con-
dition.
The wounded with few exceptions are
doing well at the hospital. Since the last
report Henry Neimeyer, Phillip Raabe
and Thom. Green (colored) have died.
CINCINNATI, April 3-Alfred Hopkins,
another victim of the riots, died tonight
This brings the death list up to fitty-one
He was an old captain and pilot on the
river; age 50. The Cincinnati trades as
sembly tonight passed vote of thanks
to the members Of the Veteran regiment,
who refused to 60 to the defense of the
murderers in the Jail. They also COM
mended the members of the 4th Ohio
National Guard regiment for refusing to
march to the Jail on Saturday night to
take part in the attack ON the mob. They
also voted to ask the Dayton assembly to

the 4th regiment Of that city.
CINCINNATI, April 2.-The relief ex-
perienced by the removal of the anxiety
which has rested SO heavily since Friday
night can hardly be described. A heavy
rain accompanied by thunder last night
served to keep everybody off the streets.
The militia on duty at the barricades
were completely drenched. 1t turned
colder after the rain and the sentries
suffered somewhat.
One Of the most encouraging outward
signs of the supremacy of order has just
appeared in the removal Of the barricades
in the street about the court house at
noon. The first street cars of the Mount
Auburn line were permitted to pass
through after being shut off since Satur-
day night The entire military force will
be withdrawn to-day except the Seven
teenth regiment which remain until fur
ther orders. The latest revised list of the
dead and wounded places the dead at 45,
wounded 1873.
While the Main street and North and
South Court streets are open to public
travel, the barbados around the jail and
on Sycamore street are still in position.
These cause comparatively little inter-
ruption to business, and they make 1t i'm
possible for the crowd to press closely on
the Jail. At the burial Yesterday of
Adolph Melnkeng, the one killed Satur-
day night, his father tainted at the grave
and was carried home in an unconscious
condition and died this morning,

Pacific freight was ditched within twelve

wounded. The fireman escaped by jump
ing from the engine. No other persons
The train left Glendive behind time, and
in crossing coolie the engineer saw that
the bridge had been burned, but he was
too near to stop the train. He at once

jumping the burned bridge, but the en-
CINE jumped the track and was capsized.

tic express passed the wreck on time, a
temporary track having been built.
Chicago, March 27-The large six
story building, southwest corner of Water
street and Wabash avenue, chiefly occu-
pied by S. A. Cook & Co., printers and
bookbinders, was burned this afternoon.

building being in the centre of the
wholesale grocery trade, a large detach-
ment of the fire department responded.

to the building. A large number of man
ufacturers' agents were in the building.
