LATEST NEWS.
!. JoHNsTowN, Pa, June AThe situation
here on the I'd, has not changed to any ex-
tent and the estimate Of loss of life at
5000 does not seem to have been exagger-
ated. Six hundred bodies are now lying
In JohnstoWn, and large number have
already been buried. Four immense relief
trains arrived last night, and the survi-
vers are being well cared for. A portion
OF the police force of Pittsburg and Allie
gheny are on duty, and better order is
ma1ntained than prevailed yesterday.
Communication has been restored between
Cambria City and Johnstown by foot
bridge. The work Of repairing the tracks
between Sang Hollow and Johnstown is
going on rapidly, and trains will probably
be running by tomorrow morning Not
less than $1,000 strangers are in the city.
The following are the names of a few
among the thousands who persisted: f.

bria City and other surrounding towns in
the flooded district are as badly off as
Jamestown. At Conemaugh theinhabitants
OF the lower lying portion of the town
have been literally wiped out Of existence.
At Woodvale the percentage of death is
even greater than that at Jamestown.
Kernville has only house or two as a
monument tosits former respectable pro-
portions. Cambria City is not evena ghost
of its former self, while all along the line
of the torrent the isolated houses Of hun
dreds are without occupants The relief
provisions for Johnstown must be extend.
ed to these other places as rapidly as rail-
road transportation facilities can be fur
nished The towns named all lie between
Johns town and the South Fork dam, whose
bursting caused the disaster At Wood
vale the dead bodies of hundreds are living
in the debris relatively as numerously as
they arc in J0hnstoWn. Il At Conemaugb
the same condition of things prevails. The
scarcity OF the living At both places makes
the recovery Of bodies very slow work.
Each hour reveals some new and horrible
story Of suffering and crime and every
succeeding hour brings news Of swift and
