Insurance Agents and photographers.

One of the features of the day was the
arrival of a large number of life and ac
cident insurance agents. Fully 100 ar
rived and they are hard at work looking
up the victims who were insured in the
different companies. Very little infor-
nation can be procured yet. as there is
really no official list of the identified
dead. and even if there was there are so
MANY people who cannot be identified
that there Is little or no hope for the in
surance agents getting anything like
complete list. Another feature in the
arrivals is the number of professional
and amateur photographers who have
put in an appearance. On every hillside
and at places among the ruins cameras
can lie seen in abundance.
The List of the Survivors.
The registration of survivors goes on,
but not 80 rapidly as yesterday. The to-
tai registration to date Is only trifle
over IL. 900, out of total estimated pop
ulation of the torrent-swept district of
from 35 900 to 10000 last Friday. Al
lowance must be made. of course, for the
large numbers of survivors who have
sought refuge with friends in other
places. as well as many who have failed,
either from ignorance or from omission.
to register. But the falling off leads the
authorities TO apprehend that their worst
fears may vet be realized and the death
roll may amount well up into the five
figures. Visits to several of the registra-
ton offices and inquiries among survi-
vors who came in TO register and COM
pilation of the replies TO them, indicate
that the proportion of the saved and lost
is about equal.
Bob Fowier's Experience.
One of the most mournful stories yet
related was told by Officer Fowler of the
Pittsburg police force. He said that
while standing guard at the Baltimore
and Ohio relief station he was ap-
preached by troop of nine children
walking single file. who were under the
command of girl Is years of age. She
told in a simple. straightforward way
how she was the oldest of her family
and that her father. mother and older
sisters had been drowned, while they had
survived. The officer fed them and then
put them in charge of man who veri-
lied their story.

Remarks of Irish

CHICAGO, Feb. u.-Most of the prominent
Irishmen in the United States have been in
terviewed in regard to the testimony before
the Parnell commission of the witness LIE
Caron The latest to be seen by the in
quiring reporter We're John E. Fitzgerald. col
lector of the port of Boston; and John Boyle
O'Reilly, of the same city. The
former said that the fact that the
Irish conventions at Chicago and elsewhere
were attended by many who believed in the
physical force" plan did not prove their con-
nection with Parnell nor his with them, and
concluded his comment with: lie Caron is
probably wretch 50 sordid that he only sees
the present pecuniary assistance which his
treachery brings him"
Fitzgerald also remarked in effect that
informers like lie Caron ALWAYS find death at
the hands of some avenger, and lie Caron
would probably lie no exception to the rule.
O'Reily said 1.-The fellow may have met
him at some convention, but he 70 Reilly did
not remember him. Said he: lie Caron's
evidence is a web of lies, and the truth all
harmless and the lies deliberately insulting to
Mr.. Parnell." He is liar of
phenomenal wickedness and foresight" =
Such men as this lie Caron are al
ways scoundrels in their personal character,
yet their testimony is set against honorable
men"
Ex-senator Jones, of Florida, cables from
Detroit TO Michael Davitt that lie Caron's
statement that he Jones' negotiated Russo
Fenian alliance Is absolutely false.

Tomorrow night the famous Boston

theatre for the benefit of Buford Post.
@. A. r. The Boston Adoertiser thus
speaks Of the entertainment:
SO uniformly excellent were the num-

comment, except TO say that, from the
beautiful opening piece to the familiar

there seemed nothing wanting to make
the performance perfect OF its kind.
There Is special charm attached to these
wild. rythmic plantation hymns of "spir.

of presentation before the audiences in
two continents. The best entertainment
Of the Jubilee singers is unique in this,
and in the peculiar adaptation of relig
ious pieces to secular audiences by
touches of brightness which have in them
nothing of irreverence. The power and
scope of the voices of this company are
remarkable, and they have been cultivst-
ed to fine finish of tone. The audience
last evening was thoroughly apprecia-
tive, testifying this by its generous ap.

means of an ancient chart in locating gold
mine which was worked by Spaniards over
200 years ago, have been murdered, it is said
by American intruders. The latter secured
the chart after desperate fight, in which
the Mexieans were killed The discovery OF
the bodies at the mouth of the abandoned
San Salvador mine has brought to light a
romantic story, rivaing all the tales about
Capt. Kids buried treasures.
Miguel MARTINEZ, at the head of party OF

here that they were in search of an aban
doned gold mine which they believed to be
very rich and were going to develop Mar.
tinez carried a chart traced on parchment
which he said was 200 years old and was
made by an ancestor of his in the seventeenth
century. The chart had been lost for years
but recently turned up, and at once the party
was organized.
His party was not heard of again till Sat
urday, when hunter named Keller reported
that his party had discovered their bodies
All of the Mexicans had been shot and carved
up by knives, showing that the struggle was
hand-to- hand one. There were evidences
that the victorious party had lost three OF
four men and had made a hasty departure
carrying its dead and wounded with it. What
surprised the hunters most was to find the
mine had recently been worked 1t was moi
known that pick-ax had touched it since
two men starved to death there in 1877.

consent, and went down and married her.

Death of Thomas Nj, Michel.

New YORK, Feb. ll.-Thomas NJ Nchol
who was conspicuous several years ago as ar
advocate of coin currency, and as a debater
on political and financial subjects, died in the
hospital here of spinal disease. He was A
years old, and had been helpless invalid for
some years. Two Or three years ago queer
story obtained currency to the effect that
some sort of nervous irritation rendered it
impossible for him to endure the touch OF
clothing and that lie had been compelled to
seek permanent seclusion in a room where,
stark naked, he lived alone and dictated his
business and newspaper writings TO a sec
rotary in an adjoining room. Ten years age
his sobriquet of "1ard Money Nichor" was
known from one end of the country to the
