He has received response in which
Harrity makes an explicit denial, and con

been called to statement that appeared
in some newspapers - notably some of

Loss of Life VIII Never BE Known. but
Not rs Large as Expected.
Corrected reports from various sources
along the river front materially reduce the
estimate Of the loss by drowning. How
many roustabouts went down will prob
ably never he known, rs they are generally
of a class i'm whose welfare there is little
interest, most of them being negro nomads
who move from one port to another. The
steamer j. j. Odill, the Illinois river
packet which went to pieces at the Pitts
burg dyke after tumultuous trip from
the foot of Cherry street, dragged down
five unfortunates to "a watery death. The
victims were: Morris Fisher, we'll
known merchant at Hardin, Ills; Mrs.
Goodar, of the same place; Sim Woods,
chief clerk of the boat, and the second
cook and chambermaid, whose names are
unknown.
Reports circulated that several team
stcrs employed by the st. Louis Transfer
company were drowned when Wig
pins' ferry boat was swamped, are
denied by the officials. At the general
offices of the latter 1t was authoritatively
announced that there was no foundation
for such rumors. Four teamsters were
thrown in the river, but all succeeded In
getting ashore without injury. Several
teams and wagons loaded with cotton
halcs were lost. but no human lives.
The revised list of total and partial
losses In the levee office of the harbor de-
nartment included the following steamers;
