4 Day of Suspense Among the Rela-

Cincinnati, O., March 9.-This has been
a day of suspense among the relatives
and friends of the victims Of the Long
fellow wreck Searching parties have
gone down the river looking for traces
of the missing. The officers of the
packet company were rewarded for
their zealouSneSs by finding the body
Of the veteran clerk Of the LongfelloW,
Captain j. L. Carter, in the wreck that
had been caught and tied to the shore
near Riverside. The aged clerk was
pinned to the boiler by portion of
the cabin deck, which had fallen on
him. His body was not mutilated.
When the river falls, as it will, doubt
less, by Monday, more extended
search can be made in that part of the
wreck, where it is supposed the bodies
of Mr. Aldridge and of the bartender,
ChauVet, may be found.
The wreckage of the Longfe1low is
scattered for a distance OF twenty-five
miles and everywhere the sl1iffs of
wreckers are busy towing floating cases
to shore, where they are Immediately
rifed. Pirate skiff5 are lowering
around the hull, waiting for pieces of
freight to be detached. The company's
men are doing everything possible to
save the cargo
There have been no developments to-
day TO indicate that the death list will
be enlarged.

amount of light as is furnished by
ordinary gas at S125 Factories are
already completed and the gas will be
offered for general use within a short
time. 1t is now used in house in
