ABBOTT ALIAS ALMY.

The New Hampshire Murderer Pos
 ftfvely Identified as an Escaped
 Prison Convict-Seven Years Hang-
 ing over His Head.
 HANOVER, N. H., Aug. 23.-The usual quiet of the Sabbath in Hanover has been disturbed by the arrival of large num- Der of old acquaintances and relatives of George H. Abbott alias Frank 0. Amy. Notwithstanding the fact that Warden Oakes of the Vermont state prison and two subordinate officers of that institution, together with several Thetford people, yes terday identified the murderer as Abbott, there was not few who refused to believe it was he. They defended their position by saying that it was simply pre- posterous to suppose that Abbott, with an unexpired term of seven years hanging over him and a reward offered for his cap ture, would be so foolish as to come back to place within a dozen miles of both the prison, whose doors are still open for him, or the town in which he had lived so many years, and where his robberies the people, as a matter of self defense, to shoot him. down, only eleven years ago. They argued fur ther that while he had not hung around the stores of the village when his duties at the Warden farm did not require his pres ence there as the hired farm laborer usual | ly does, yet he had attended plenty of pub | lie exercises, at any of which he was likely | to meet his former acquaintances. Then | again in his choice of a tonsorial artist, l whom he frequently visited, he selected | in ha l where he would often sit reading in plain | view of everybody who passed along the 1 principal street of the town. But those l who did not look at it in that way were unshaken in their faith, as they remem- bered that Amy, even since the murder,
 had been located everywhere except in
 this vicinity and that by the same line of reasoning, viz: That his meth
 cd of escape would be that of the
 average man. The events of this fore | noon have practically removed all doubt
 in the minds of unbelievers that the pris-
 oner is Abbott. Amy was seen this morn
 ing by ex-Sheriff Scion K. Berry of Thet-
 ford, the neighbor of Abbott, who, in his
 off cial capacity, captured and had Abbott
 in custody in 1880 and before. Mir. Berry
 says: ''It is rank nonsense to say that
 this man is not George Abbott. Why
 could pick him out of a million men. It
 makes no difference whether the fracture
 examination of his body shows the sup,
 posed small scars or not. He is the man
 beyond all question"
 Ephraim Wilmont, brother of Abbott's
 own mother, was among the prisoners
 visitors to-day. He was accompanied by
 A. 0. Cambridge, formerly of Thetford
 Mr. Wilmont says: 'T have not seer ) George since he was in Windsor prison ] but the man on the cot upstairs is he. Mir , Cambridge was of the same opinion.

To be Reproduced at the Hyperion
 October 8.
 The dramatization of Longfellow's Dream which was 80 elaborately and successfully presented at the Hyperion theater some time ago and scored such triumph will be repeated at the same theater Thursday October 8, under such auspices as will make the coming production even more of & success if possible than the former pre- sentation. The author, Henry Bedding ton Brown, esq, of Boston, Mass, has thoroughly revised the text of the dramati- ration, taken out some portion and insert ing others so that the work is practically 8 new one, and even more meritorious than heretofore. He is in this city, where he will remain to-day and tomorrow, super intending the preliminary arrangements for the coming production. A meeting of the committee having the matter in charge will be held this evening at the Church of the Messiah and to this meeting all inter ested in the production, and particularly those who took part in the former produc. tion, will be welcomed.

 tSpringhe.d Republican,
 Connecticut's militia, it may be said in brief. compares pretty favorahly with that of contiguous states, although the rife with which they are armed is an sntiqus- ted, condemned model of the Springfield breech-loading, single loader. In general efficiency, in ordinary camp duty, field maneuvers, marching, and the manual they are quite as well trained as one can expect from citizen soldiery. Ahead of Massachusetts and New York, and the whole country, for that matter, is this state in the experiment of utilizing the bi- cycle as as & military equipment The success of this bicycle experiment at Camp Watson this year has been pronounced, it appears, and it forms in reality the only feature of the encampment that is worth the attention of the militismen of Msssa- chusetts and of other commonwealths

 NEW YORK, August 23.-The all night search for the bodies of the unfortunates who were buried beneath the ruins of the ill-fated building in Park Place that col lapsed yesterday brought to light four more bodies. At two o'clock this morning the body of man apparently about 30 years old was found in the ruins near where the body of boy had been taken out twenty minutes before. At 4:5O o'clock another body of a man about 5 feet and 10 inches tall was taken out. In the pockets of his trousers was found two cents. At 6:20 o'clock the body of young man apparently about 19 years old was found. It was clad in dark trousers and tennis shirt. At 9:30 o'clock the body of Andrew B. Peterson, % years old, of s53 Eight avenue, the son of the man who kept the restaurant on the ground floor was taken out. At :35 o'clock two more bodies were discovered in the debris at No. 72 The first removed was that of a man about 30 years old. The second also that of man, was burned beyond recognition. The flesh hung in shreds and the intestines hung over the spine as the body was carried to a coffin. This made sixteen bodies that had been removed.

WORK STOPPED BY RAIN.

WOhh olOFfhD hAlN.
 Several other bodies were recognized during the day. They were those of Otto Walser, twenty -four years old, of 10S East Eightieth street; Charles Brecher, fifteen years old, and Frank Hatch, thirty-three years, of 121 First street. At o'clock to- night the heavy thunderstorm with the steady downpour of rain stopped the work of removing the bodies from the ruins, the men being forced to quit work and seek shelter in the adjoining buildings. The ruined structure with it's tottering walls presented dismal picture, but all through the pouring rain anxious watchers stood outside the fire lines patiently waiting to hear some news that would give them a clue to missing friends and relatives. Hundreds of people called at the Church street police station to inquire for missing friends, and it was reported there late to- night that the number of missing would reach eighty. There is no doubt but that large number of persons now reported missing would be found in an unrecogniz- able state beneath the huge mass of brick and mortar.

THE MoRGUE BEs1EGED.

The morgue was besieged all last night and to-day by friends and relatives of those who are missing. They pass in by twos and threes and failing to recognize any of the bodies which lay upon the marble slabs would leave as quietly as they came. Around the scene of the disaster anxious persons stood watching the men at work, peering into the ruins on the lookout for missing friends The cordon of police detailed to guard the fire lines were busy through the night and day keeping the people back. The fremen and laborers worked diligently all this af- ternoon, but they made poor progress, owing to the heavy machinery in the ru- ins. It will probably be necessary for the men to use derricks to get the machinery and heavy iron girders out of the way.
 John Lowe of Brooklyn called at the morgue this morning, and after carefully examining the bodies identified one as that of his son George, fifteen years old. The old mans grief at the sight of the charred remains of his boy was unspeaka- ble. Strong hearted men stood by and looked on in silence at the sorrowing sights. Mothers came looking for their sons, brothers for their sisters, and thus the dreary march of visitors was kept up all day long.
 Two other bodies were identified later on as Gustav Zickler of BIO Washington street, Hoboken, N. J., and Leonard R. Cole of Bedford avenue, Brooklyn.

DETAILS OF THE ACCIDENT.

At 12:30 o'clock Saturday an explosion occurred in the five-story building extend- ins from No. 6S to "A Park Place, and in 8 moment a frightful rumbling noise was heard and the whole front portion of the walls collapsed and fell outward in 8 pile on the street.
 Many lives were lost in the fated build ing by being crushed to death under the debris or burned by the fierce fire that followed the explosion and collapse. About 50 people escaped from the building with their lives. All the fire engines in the lower portion of the city were sum- moned to the scene. The police reserves were called out, and the widest excite ment prevailed throughout the city.
 The fire burned fercely, but the fire men, by heroic labor, got the flames under control within an hour and half, and the work of digging at the ruins began for the bodies of the unfortunate victims. Ambulances were summoned from seV- eral hospitals and the dead wagon came from the morgue to remove the dead. As it was the noon hour, the restaurant was crowded with customers, and the kitchen in the basement filled with help. Louis Rosenfelds & Go. had metal lea1 and bronze factory on the first floor, and I. W. Lindsey, type foundry on the sixth floor. From some of the upper floors there were many narrow escapes.
 The occupants, when they heard the ex | plosion, rushed to the rear fire escapes o1
 escaped into the corner building and from there into the street. Although the walls of Eos. 69 to "A collapsed, the building en tire, known as the Taylor building, ex tended from 66 to 76. No. 76 is on thu
 corner of Greenwich street, and som
 of the manufacturing lofts openinl l from that portion of the building
 which collapsed into the corner build
 ing. means of escape were afforded in thi
 way.

SEVENTEEN BODIES RECOVERED.

The total number of bodies taken from the ruins up to the time the men stopped work tonight is F. The number indenti
 fled is IA, as follows: Leonard R. Cole, John Gibbs, Sarah Ann Heagney, Charles Heagney, Michael Slattery, Phillip Eberte, John Barry, A. B. Peterson, George Lowe, Gustave Zeitler, Gustab Roherdick, Char les Breitner, Frank Hatch.
 Besides there are number of unidenti- fled bodies at the morgue. Several fire
 engines were busy at different intervals
 dnring the day throwing streams of water
 on the flames that broke out at irregular
 intervals at various places in the ruins.
 Chief Reilly said that it was liable to
 break out as the debris was removed. A
 gang of Italians worked all day taking away the debris. Work has to be carried on carefully or the walls, woodwork, etc., will fall. It will be several days proba- bly, before the rubbish is removed. The greatest excitement continues throughout the city and nothing else is talked about. | The coroner will hold an inquest on the bodies of the dead.
 He will them impanel jury which will | include number of expert builders, and l every effort will be made to discover the ! collapse of the building. Although a thunder storm ragged at 12 o'cloc k tonight l and the rain fell fast there still remained a crowd of people about the ruins. The opinion prevails tonight that less than hali ! the bodies have been recovered from the wreck, and it is thought that not less than fifty persons were killed.
