A MYRIAD DEAD.
Nearly Twelve Hundred Bodies
Recovered AT New Florence
Words Cannot Describe the
Terrible Scenes of the Day.

PITTsBUReH, PA June 1.-The
Johnstown horror is withouta par
allel in Americas history The
worst fears are confirmed, and may
be far more serious than even now
anticipated. Conservative persons
near the scene of the disaster esti-
mate that from 1000 to 5000 lives
have been lost. The difference in
estimates is due to the unsettled
condition of affairs. The beautiful
valley is stunned by the blow.
Johnstown, the devastated, was
reached this evening, shortly before
dark. Three-fourths of the once
thriving place is still inundated.
No boats were at hand and IL search
is impossible until the water sub
sides. The relief parties could not
get in the town, only being able to
reach Carson City.
Pittsburgh has notonly made fran
tic efforts, but brave efforts, all
morning to reach Johnstown and
extend the strong arm of sympathy,
but all without avail. Up to L
o'clock this afternoon nobody had
gotten within the town center.
Skiffmen row across the ruins and
estimate that there is AZ feet OF
water in the main street. There is
not left standing, they say, a single
house. But until the flood rolls
away, the city. of Johnstown will
remain unseen and the horrors that
will then emerge can only now be
imagined. A telegram from the
nearest operating station, New
Florence, states that 1,1T5 bodies
have been recovered. If so many
have been cast ashore at this COM
paratively early stage, it is terrible

human lives will be revealed by the
full and authenticated returns.
Mayor McCallin received tele-
gram from Johnstown this morning
stating that they were badly in need
of collins and undertakers, and they
wanted 200 collins, all sizes, sent
Immediately. The Mayor, upon
receipt of telegram went to Samp-
sons undertaking establishment
and ordered the collins, stating that
he would be personally responsible
for the payment. The collins were
sent on the relief train.
Kaufman Bros. have donated
$1,000 worth of mems, boys and
children's clothing, boots, shoes and
hats, which will be sent to the stuff

of property. Two men are reported

The Great Disaster.
8 berine tbe Eh.,aI..


Remesi.b ering the liberality of
the people Sc this country to the
sufferers OF the Ohio Valley in the
flood of 1884, of which Point Pleas
ant was a bountiful recipient, our
citizens should respond o the ap-
peal for aid from the sufferers of the
Johnstown, Pennsylvania disaster.
Nothing approaching its loss of life
and property has ever before occur
red in this country. 1t is not too
late to do good. Give what you can
to help the unfortunate people. If
you can give thousand dollars, do
50. If you can't spare over % cents
why give that amount. This town
and vicinity ought to raise $4,000.
at least, for the sufferers. 1t is
never too late to do good. In this
paper we publish an editorial from
the Wheeling Sunday Register, Civ
ing a graphic description of this
terrible disaster. Read it and your
hand will involuntary clasp your
pocket-book.

QnaY.s Harrisbufg moael. This.


Qnay's Harrisburg model. This
extract from Senator Washburn's
interviey is striking
y opinion is the party in power
is weakened by patronage. The
wrath of the disappointed more
than offsets the work of the men
who are favored with place.
Seriously, / think the patronage
question is the rock that is most
likely to wreck the administrations
of to-day. a very prominent gem
tleman in this city, who has him
self been a candidate for President,
said to me this morning that he
did not believe another President
would be re-nominated and re-elect-
ed for the next hundred years.
The incumbent of the Office of
President would be so handicapped
with old promises which he had
not been able to keep that it would
be dangerous to think of re-nomi-
mating him. i am inclined to think
he is right. The tendency of the
times is against renominating Pres
idents. Mr.. Harrison should make
up his mind to retire at the end of
his four years.
1t will probably not depend alto
gether on Mr.. Harrison making up
his mind. The people will do that.

thus formed hundreds, perhaps
thousands, of people were struggling.
for life.
The scene to-day is one of the
most narrowing possible for. the inn
agination of man to conceive. The
accumulated drift gorged up all the
yiaduct to a height of 40 feet, and
then took fire from the upsetting of
stoves or lamps.
SIGHT OF sIcKRNING TERROR.
There were strong men made sick
at the sight. As the flames crack
led and roared among the dry finder
of the floating houses, human bod
les We're seen pinioned between the
house roofs, locomotives, iron beams,
freight, passenger, Pullman and bag
gage cars, heavy iron beams, the
greedy flames licking with haste
their diet of human flesh. The
scene was horrible beyond descrip-
ton. From infancy a few days old
to the wasted figure of age, were
burned before the eyes of the be-
holders, and no rescue from such a
fate was possible. Strong men
turned away with agonized express
sions and women shrieked at the
horror of the scene.
DEAD NUMBER EIGHT THOUSAND.
The dead has been computed at
not less than 5000, and the number
may even exceed this estimate
This seems incredible, but until the
waters will have abated and the
work of removing the dead from
this tremendous mass is done, it will
be impossible to tell how many
lives have been lost.
