One Hundred Bodies Recovered.
RED WING. July l6.-The doleful
tolling of the church bells was still
heard In this city to-day, the list Of
recovered dead from the Seawing dis
a,ter having been greatly increased
since yesterday. Eight bodies were
brought in from the scene Of the disas.
ter this morning. In the afternoon
sixteen more were brought up and
one wss sent over to Lake City. And
tp-night an,tber boat load arrived.
There are now 100 on the death roll
and several others are still missing.
All the bodies taken out to-day were
bloated and blsckened beyond recog-
milton 80 that clothing and jewelry and
papers were the only means by which
friends were enabled to claim their
dead. An unknown man was brought
In this morning and lay for several
hours In the corouer's room and none
came who knew him. Finally plain
gold ring was cut from his finger and
the lettering "Annie, lss2-s-l2" on the
ipside led to his Identification a Peter
Olson. Body No. IS was that Of . boy
of IA, to whose buttonhole his straw
hat was still tied. Frank Stroupe was
ona Of those who gazed long and ear
nestly ct the horrible facts but he raw
nothing familiar there. Finally he
drew from bis pocket piece Of isnnel
and compared IL with the boys shirt
which had changed somewhat b. the
water. Still II was the same and .
glance at the peculiar shoe buttons
caused the fathers eyes TO oil and
overflow. Nothing more was needed
TO tell those around that his son John
ny's body had been recovered. The
warm weather ard shallowness Of the
water, together with the fact that ssv-
eral big cleaners sent up heavy svells
to-day % they passed up the river.
brought the bodies to the surface very
quickly. The patrolling row boats,
which had been directed by g. A.
Carlson Of this city. towed the bodies
ashore and they were identified, boxed
and shipped to this city. Mr.. Carlson's
own boy is one of the lost and the
fathers grief was intensified by his
Inability to get the missing boy. One

Horwedel, who had lived here i've or
six years and was taking his first ex-
cursIon. On 0 steamer now 10 mid.

aud permanent insanity is feared. A,
