since made her name well known across
the continent by refusing tho hand Of Prince

BAN Francisco, CAL, May 31.-At
midnight sil the bodies recovered from
the Oakland disaster had been identified.
Parties were still at the wreck searching
the bad OF the creek but it is believed no
more lives were lost.
Following is the correct list Of victims:
Capt. Thomas Dryer of Sacramento; +.
K. Irwin of Oakland; Henry s. Austin Of
San Francisco and his daughter Miss
Florence; Miss Katie Kerns aud Misc Nell
lie KorDs of San Francisco; II. 8. Aud
OF Honolulu; Matthias Williams Of San
francisco; L. Il. Robinson of San Frsn-
cisco; Miss Bryan 0'Connor OF San Fran
cisco; Martin g. Kelly Of San Francisco;
Luigui Maletests and bis sor of San
Francisco.
Captain NJ. Il. Roberts, his niece, Mrs.
>. Ii. Roberts, and her two daughters,
were among the saved from the first car.
The captain and his relatives occupied
the end seats next to the tender, in the
first car, and when the accident occurred
were the first to be submerged. As the
car went of the bridge it parted from
tho train, and on striking the bottom Of
the bay, the coupling connecting it with
the tender broke, allowing that end to
come to the surface. The eutire occur-
renee happened SO quickly that the tirst
thing the captain realized was that he
was floating under car veniilators with
one OF the children, Effie, clinging to his
neck, and Mrs. Roberta and her eldsr
daughter struggling in the water. Real
izing his danger he called to the others to
follow and Immediately dove through
the car door, which was submerged. On
coming to the surface he found boat, to
which he and the others hung until the
arrival of boat, which took them to the
wharf.
MISC Mary Austin, daughter OF Henry
s. Austin Of Auatin & Phelps, was saved,
but her sister Florence and her father
were drowned. Miss Austin is almost
crnzed with grief over the loss of her
relatives.
Immediately after the accident re-
port spread that Sam Dunn, engineer of
the train, and Charles 0'Brien, fireman,
had gops down with tue wreck, but this
was conirGdieted by acquaintsnces of
both men, who claimed to have seen
them. Dunn and O'Brisn said to John
Williams, ar Alamedian, that they had
Jumped into tine water when the engine
had gone ogsr the end Of the trestle and
climbed up on piles to the wharf.
The crowd that assembled even in that
short tame Yves manifestly hostile TO them
and O'Brien said that as no was climbing
up onto the wls,i stranger had tried to
throw hira back into the water. Fearing
violence they left tie scene of the acci-
dent and went at once to Alameda.
