George Slgorovitch saw. his wife aud
children perish before him, while the
water stood up to his chin. The mother
had taken one child on her back and the
father another. The third shifted for
herself. The mother and babe and the
third child were lost but the man sue.
saved himself.
These Instances Of loss of life are mul.
uplied in every locality. They were as
rule and not an exception.
IL j. variously estimated that from 200
TO 900 people persisted on Bayou Cook
and In that section of the country.
Deaths at other points all the way from
Bayou Cook TO Grand island and Chenier
will swell the total TO more than 100,
according TO the best information OBJ
tainable. AT Grand bayou no less than
twenty-siN persisted.
One of the saddest sights witnessed
by party of survivors was the bodies
OF three women dashed TO a plank and
being bnffeted about by the waves. They
were floating in Grand lake, which is
the entrance TO Grand Isle. A log was
hoating between the bodies. and drag
glng from that appeared TO be the body
of q boy.
1t is learned that on Rosario and Linon
island the loss of life was great.
Several boats have already left this city
stocked with hundreds of l0nves of
bread and other provisions for the suffer
ers at Cheniere, Grand Island and Bayou
Cook. soon as the news reached the city
that people We're suffering for lack of
water, relief parties were mude up To
carry barrels Of fresh water TO the surviy
ors. Many as may desire may BE- brought
TO this city by the boats that have been
sent to the scene Of the disaster Ii ~
quite possible that many will take adyan-
tage OF the opportunity 10 return TO town.
IL was learned here tonight that Shell
Beach was visited by the storm and
twelve or thirteen versions lost their
lives. No names are known except that
Of Martin Bonfairo, fisherman. and his
wife and two children. A small island,
reported swept by the tidal wave. Ii had
u population VI twenty and US far
as Is known none were left TO relate the
story of disaster.
x.Congrcssman Dudley Coleman and
party succeeded In reachiug the city from
Woreland. Coleman says two schooners
owned by Pochevant n Favre, have been
lost and the crews Of each, numbering
altogether ten, lost their lives.
These are the only fatalities known to
have occurred on the Mississippi sound.
The railroad company has chartered n
tug to bring all bclutcd passengers to the
city, Along Bayou Senet tl,ere We're
many Cinnamon engaged in the occupa-
ton Of drying shrimp. They were within
the track Of the storm AMI many probably
perlshed.

was today only sadness in the news
from Bayou Cook and various settle
ments that are tributary thereto. There
has been frIghtful loss Of life through

to pieces and smacks destroyed and
wrecked. There will never be any
means Of correctly estimating the exact
loss that humanity suffered Many Of
the bodies have been carried into the
marshes and will never be found. Per-
haps some of these are still living, but
without food and water and they will
likely perish unless assistance is sent
them.
Train crews arriving ON the Grand ISL

bodies and i large number have already
been buried,
