Burial OF Those Drowned by Recent

New YORK, Sept "A special TO
The World from Savannah, Ga, says:
3 Freidling of the wholesale grocery
firm of s. Buckenheimer g. Son re-
turned from Beaufort on a special tug,
having left there Friday morning. Mr..
Friediing says that at least 800 persons
were drowned in that vicinity, and
that when all reports are in upward OF
1.50O will be found to have persisted.
Up to Friday the coroner had held in
quests on 800. of which 81 were buried
In n pit and 80 in another. 1t is
Impossible t o Procure Collins.
The aggregate loss at Beaufort will
exceed $500. 600. The phosphate in
dustry near Beaufort has been ruined.
and the crops On the sea islands are a
complete loss. The suffering will be
intense.
All that is desired is to get the bodies
out OF the way as quickly as possible,
to prevent epidemics resulting from
their rapid decomposure. No accurate
record is kept of the number of dead,
and the statistics of the disaster will
never be fully known. On each island
and on the mainland the survivors are
burying all the remains of the victims
that can be found. Coroners certificates
are out of the question. Searching
parties make their way around the
plantations and homes, and rs soon as

these parties some sort of record ia
kept, but the greater number of burials
are made by negroes.
The black belt on the coast has lost
not LESS than 1000 Of its population,
with a probability that it is twice the
number. 1t will be a week before all
the dead are found, as there is still
much water on the islands, beneath
which there are undoubtedly many
bodies. The sea, too, is slowly
Casting Up Its Dead.
The sufferings of negroes, who con.
stitute 80 per cent of the u~nfortunates,
are almost indescribabie, and several
days must yet pass before their neces.
stiles can be relieved. The menace tt
