Detroit, Mich, November THE
work of rescuing bodies of the victims
Of Wednesdays explosion in the Jour
nal building went steadily on all day
and tonight. The list Of missing de-
creases about correspOndingly with the
number of dead bodies taken out Over
thirty dead bodies have now been re-
covered and identified, but the number
changes frequently on account Of new
and ghasuy discoveries brought to
light in the ruins. The number killed
will approximate forty. To-day's de-
velopments demonstrate conclusiyely
that negligent care of the boilers was
the cause OF the catastrophe.
Official inspectors and competent en-
gineers examined portions OF the wreck
ed boilers to-day and pronounced the
cause as low water, causing a super
heated condition OF the flues which was
followed by the dangerous injection of
cold water. Engineer Thompson's s
carelessness is strongly condemned.
The engineer of the Free Press building
states that ne had previously warned
Thompson against leaving his boilers
without having any assistant to watch
them. Some occupants of the building
give similar testimony. Thompson in
sists that he saw both boilers ten min
utes before the explosion, and that they
contained plenty OF water and 65-pOund

That Wasn't Stolen, Didn't Walk or, but
Still Got Away.
A very strange incident is reported
by the c. & p employees to-day. The
Tiltonville mail sack was hung out as
usual a short time before noon to be
caught by the down coming mail. A
freight, however, passed south in front
of the mail train and it so happened
that a projecting rod upon a coke car
caught the sack and brought it on
down to Martins Ferry The freight
stopped here and car inspector Geo
Haas, of Bellaire, who happened to be
passing that way, found the sack sus-
pended with a very small hold. It was
turned over to the mail agent who was
much surprised to thus come into pos
session Of it. He said the Tiltonville
agent thought the sack had been stolen
and was much excited over the matter.
