ONE UNKNOWN WOMAN. rHr-
SEVEN CHINAMEN.
The number is nineteen, as sent last
night by the Associated Press. and there
is little doubt that this Is the total list
of the killed.
The bodies of the engineer, fireman. and
Mr.. Van Etten's secretary are yet In
tho river, with small hope of their Inn
mediate ,oyery
The ins..ents and features OF the day
have tinge OF the dramatic around
them Had 1t not been for the fact that
torrents of rain poured down all the
afternoon, the New York Central would
have had an excursion on their hands,
larger than any for many years. As IL
was. train after train of cars filled with
curiosity-seekers reached the scene to
stand and stare at the burning embers
ana mutilated cars.
CHINAMEN IDENTIFIED FIRST.
OF the nineteen dead who lay In the
Coronefs ONCE AT Cold Spring, eight were
heather foreigners, whose names or iden-
tity mean scarcely anything to the gene
raj public, yet those Cinnamon were iden-
titled and claimed long before any one
had come forward TO identify and claim
the white victims.
In the morgue they lay for fully Two
days. unclaimed and unsought, evidently,
while the other dead were claimed and
taken care OF.
The sixteen bodies that were held at
Cold Spring for identification and the
claim of relatives were divided between
the two undertaking establishments
All day long these places were beseged
by crowds of the curious, but only those
who might In any way establish the
identity Of the victims were admitted to
look upon them.
At O'Clock tonight, but for few
burning embers and twisted rails. 1t
would be difficult TO detect any sign OF
tho wreck.
THE WRECK COMPLETE.
Observation-Disclosures Mccoy said
that none OF the cars would ever be fit
for use again, and there was nothing
worth saving. The torch was applied to
the day coach, and the combin0t ion
smoking and baggage-car. The work OF
raising the sleeping coach proceeded
slowly, and II was not until 10 o'clock
that II was hoated upon transport.
While being raised the trucks gave way,
and fell with a crash into the river. The
car was towed down the river, and de-
posted on the bank. where IL was de-
stroyed by fire. The last coach OF the
Inflated train, the Niobe, was gotten out
of the water at o'clock. The express
car is around the little knoll OF the noun
tain, three hundred yards below. No at
tempt will be made to raise II until to-
morrow.
All day a large force of men has been
at work rebuilding the tracks. The north
bound track was moved over five
feet east, firm bed. composed OF sand
gravel. and broken stones having been
prepared for II. A like track has also
been planned for south-bound trains.
Superintendent Mccoy thinks the two
tracks will be in operation by tomorrow
night.
