A large number of representatives of
life, accident and fire insurance companies
are here, trying to reach an approximate
idea OF the losses. The greatest uncer-
tainty still exists. In many cases whole
families were extinguished, and the bene-
ficiaries reside at such distance that COM
munication with them cannot be had at
once. To get the number of unrecognized
dead adds TO the complication. The repre-
sentative OF one tre insurance company
says that the liabilities of the fire insur
ance companies will be small, because the
property had all been destroyed by water
before the fire broke out at the bridge.
The accident policies are supposed to reach
fully S2,0OO0OO

A motion was made that after forty eight
hours further search of the debris of the
city that it be consumed by fire. Engines
are to be on hand to play upon the valua-
BILE buildings that might be ignited by the
general conhagration.
Those whose relatives or friends still rest
beneath the wreck demonstrated strongly
against such summary action.
The physicians warned the committee
that further exposure of the putrid bodies
could have but one result-the

TIT II7Is
By this it is plainly apparent that large
number of survivors will not take the
pains to register.
The great number of bodies not identi-
fed seems almost incredible. Some OF
these have lain in different morgues for
four days. At Nineveh they are burying
all the unidentified dead, but in the NOR
CUES in this vicinity no bodies have been
buried unless identified.
Up to noon 72S bodies had been en-
balmed at st. Columbus Catholic Church,
Cambria City. Only one was secured to-
day, that of small child. number of
bodies were taken from the debris at
Kernsville this morning.

P. E. Chaplin, of Washington, who built
the Gautier Steel Works, and until Jan.
uary, 1888, was General Superintendent ot
the Cambria Iron Works at Johnstown,
said last evening the loss was about as fol.
lows: Johnstown proper, $i5,0O0,00O
Pennsylvania Railroad, $4,000, 600; Gau.
tier Steel Company, S2500,O00; Cambris
Iron Company, 100000. The general
losses at Mineral Point, East Conemaugh
Woodville, Conemaugh Borough, Kern
vile, Grubtown, Buckstown, Millville
Sheridan and Morrellville, are about 81.

1t is doubtful if twenty years will enable
the valley to recover from this shock.

During the past twentyfour hours sixty
bodies, embalmed, were taken from this
place. This morning five bodies were
brought in, one of them, Oscar Henne-
kamp, for whose recovery a large reward
was offered. A Gordon of soldiers will be
stationed around the town, and nobody be
allowed to enter it without pass.
The real work of ascertaining what the
living and dead of Johnstown are was
started this morning. A corps of clerks
under the direction of the Relief Commit
tee, will go to every house in the vicinity,
to secure the names of the living. Another
corps will endeavor to find out who the
missing are.
a revision of the register list shows only
$1,000 people registered to l o'clock this

TYPHUs OR SOME OTHER EPIDEMIC
Equally fatal to its victims Although the
proposition to burn the wreck was de-
feated, it was evident the movement was
gaining many adherents, and the result
will doubtless be that in a few days the
torch will be applied.
At Minerva 1856 bodies were consigned to
the earth to-day from the morgues about
town.
This army of dead was placed in
trenches. Less than 100 has been recog-
nized by friends, and none of them were
claimed for private burial. However, as
in a majority of instances, the survivors
were too poor to stand the expense.
There is an unusual amount of sickness
about Kernville. Physicians claim that

Check" Achieves Some Things.

There was quite big fire over on the
North Side the other night Two young men
saw the reflection in the sky, hailed a cab,
and told the driver to drive them to the scene
of the confagration Ee did so. When they
arrived there the burning structure was blaz-
ing fiercely. Directly across the way was an
unoccupied building, yet unfinished, in the
windows and open doorways of which were
forty or fifty people watching the progress of
the fire.
Ono Of tho young men in the cab COM
planned that he could not see the fire. His
friend said that he would "fx it." and get
ting out and going up to policeman near by
he said to him: Here, officer, how is it that
those people can overrun my buildinga They
are liable to deface it" The officer addressed
called two other policemen and together they
cleared the vacant building of sightseers in a
jiffy. Then the cheeky young man and his
