Services In the chapel from which the
bodies were buried consisted merely of q
prayer by one Of the survivors. No
minister was present. Each coffin had n

similar card was placed so that bodies
can be removed later by friends.
The Cambria hospital has now 800
patients. DIR. Buck, with en- efficient
corps OF aids, Ia in charge. Two Of the
patients died yesterday, Miss Hughes, a

AN ALLEaEp MIRACLE.
The miracle, as II Is called, that hap
pened at the Church OF the Immaculate
Conception, has caused tremendous
sensation, A large number of persons
will testify to the nature OF the event,
and, to put 1t mildly, the circumstances
are really remarkable. May deyotiona
were In progress ON Friday night when
the wafer descended on Cambria City.
The church was filled with people ct the
time, but when the noise Of the hocd
was heard the congregation hastensd to
get out OF the way. They succeeded, as
far as escaping from the interior Is
concerned, and In few minutes the
church was partially submerged, the
water reaching 10 feet up sides and
swirling around the corners furiously.
The building was badly wrecked, the
benohts were torn out, and in general
the entire structure, both inside and out
side, WINS fairly diamantled. Yes.
terday morning when an entrance was
forced through the blookaded doorway
the ruin appeared to be complete. One
object alone had escaped the waters
wrath. The statue Of the Blessed Virgin
that had been decorated and adorned be-
cause OF the May devotions was as un-
sullied as the day 1t was made. The
flowers, the wreathe, the laos veil, were
undisturbed and unsailed. Not wrinkle
was observable in it's outlines. The
marks on the wall showed that the statue,
which is three feet high, the surface of
the water had risen to o height of 10

from all contact with the liquid. Every
one that has seen the statue and its sur
roundings is firmly convinced the incl
dent was miraculous one, and even to
the most skeptioal the affair favors of the
supernatural. There are abont 80 Oath
Ollie priests and nuns here. This Sisters
are deyoting themselvea TO the oars of
the sick and injured in the hospitals,
while the priests are doing anything and
everything and making themselves gem
orally useful. Il
There was much comment over the
finding OF lLo body OF the nun cut in
two. II was ct first thought that she was
resident OF Johustown community,
but as none of them have been reported
missing the snpposition is that she was
travelling at the time Of the accident on

drowned at Harper's Ferry.
LIST OF THE DEAD.
Reports from all parts Of Maryland re-
ceived by the american give additional
facts about tho great floods along the
Monocacy, Potomac anG Susquehanna
rivers, as we'll as the damages caused by
the swelling of smaller streams, which
were soon changed into raging torrents.
The losses to the railroad companies and
to the farmers will be almost beyond
computation. The indications are that
the Chesapeake and Ohio canal will be
complete wreck, and the estimate of
compstent engineer now at Point OF
Rocks is that it will cost at least million
and half of dollars to put it in repair.
The damage at Port Deposit was very
severe, and the losses will foot up many
thousands of dollars. There were also
heavy damages at Havrs e-Grace and
other points on the Susquehanna
The loss OF life SO far as reported in
Maryland was as follows:
Joseph Oresger, OF Petersburg,

cause the water was three feet deep there.
She said she was writing from the second
story and the water was gaining steadily.
She was frightened and said many houses
around were flooded. This was evidently
before the dam broke, for our man here
said something encouraging to her and
she was talking back as only q cheerful
operator can, when the receivers skilled
ears caught sound on the wire made by
no human hands. The wires had grounded
or the house had been swept away by the
food from the lake. No one knows

every spectator find most eloquent ex.
preston In silence, the silence that be-
speaks mans recognition OF his sub
servieney tc the elements and impotence
to avert catastrophe. The insignihoanoe
of human life Ia only fully realized by
those who see such scenes as Johnstown
aud Chatsworth and Ashtabula, aud those
whose memory retains the picture OF
horror the dread experience cannot fail
to be fitting lesson.
Up to this morning people living here
who lost whole families and parts OF fam
lilies hardly seemed to realige what a
dreadfully calamity had befallen them.
This morning, however, they are get
ting to understand the situation
and agony is stamped on the face of every
one, and this is city Of mourning. Ten
bodies were taken out Of the debris at
9.20 O'Clock. There was nothing to iden-
tify them, as they were burned almost to
crisp. II ia thought, however, that
several Of them belong TO one family, as
they were all found under the roof Of a
house hardly burned.
ANOTHER STORM THREATENED.
This morning opens up dark and
dreary. Great drops Of rain fall occa.
sionally, and another storm seems immi-
nent. Eyery one feels thankful though
that the weather still remains cool, and
that the gradual qualification of the hun.
dreds OF bodies that still line the streams
and lie hidden under the miles of drift
wood and debris is rot unduly FASTENED.
