THE ROSTER OF THE DEAD
Victims of the Mexican Railroad Wreck
Still Unnumbered
Many Are Yet Camped at the
Scene Of the Disaster

City OF Mexico. March 3.-Many bruised
and wounded passengers continue to
arrive in this city, victims of the terrible
wreck ON the Inter-Ocean Railway.
Many of the wounded and bleeding were
brought into this city on the relief train,
but hundreds of those able to walk made
the attempt to reach shelter in the sur
rounding villages and are strung out on
the way to the Capital City in pitiable
procession. Many fell by the wayside
aud we're afterwards picked up more
dead than alive by other relief trains.
Hun;lr,ds are still camped at the scene,
STING around small fires kindled from
the wrcckage.
Just what the mortality is it is impossi-
bic lis yet to say. 1t is exceedingly prob
able that within the next few days more
bodies will be found in secluded spots in
the vicinity of the smash-up. Many
thinking they were strong enough to
walk the twenty-five miles into the city
male the attempt, but, overcome by weak
ncss.r they sank down by the dozen and
few have been found dead where they
fell. The military hospital in the City of
Mexico, where the wounded were con-
vsyel from the relief trains by order of
President Diaz, still echoes with the
grmns of the dying and the delirious NUT
terinss oi many unfortunates. Death
occas .onaly comes us relief.
The UNIVERSAL newspaper, makes SER
ious charges against Nuffer, the Ameri-
can engineer, who is held by many as
responsible for the wreck. He is now in
PRISON. Numerous suits for damages are
being prepared against the company by
the relatives of those killed and Injured.

OTHER PEOPLES OPINIONS
Bob Wilkinson Says that Sailie Gamble Could
Have Secured $4,000 From Fair


Bob Wilkinson, the cultivated col
ored runner for the Nadeau Hotel, whose
bright eyes see nearly everything which
goes on, but who seldom talks was asked
by The Herald Representative if he came
in contact with Senator Fair while he re-
manned at abe Nadeau.
II shonld say I4did," said Bob, ''but
didn't see him very often any place, ex-
cept leaning over the news counter con-
versing with Sallie Gamble, the bright faced
little girl who used to run it at the time
. Sallie told me one day, while in partic-
ularly communicative mood, that old
Fair wanted her to travel with him. She
said that he would give her, or rather
settle $40, 900 upon her, if she would only
go along. Sallie refused, and think she
was very foolish, for she might as well
have had his money as anybody else.
There is no use of talking, the
old chap was dead in love with
the girl and he made no effort to hide the
fact. Everybody around the hotel talked
about the Irritation. The girl is a good
little thing and her character is above re-
proach. she only met Fair in business
way as thousands of others did during
the months she was at the hotel, and she
was not to blame in any way because Sen.
ator Fair paid her SO much attention"
Jack Lemming, the handsome day clerk
of the Nadeau, was asked last evening by
Herald man if he saw anything peculiar
about Senator Fairs actions while he
stopped at the hotel.
"All can say" replied the clerk, sis
that l am satisfied that Fair was
as crazy as loon when he was here
last summer. l have seen him stand
on the corner of First and Spring streets
waiting for a car, and suddenly pull q
quart bottle of whiskey out of his pocket,
and drink it to the utter amazement of all
the passing pedestrians. noticed many
things too numerous to mention which
satisfied me that his mind was unbsl-
