THE DEAD ESTIMATED.
Many Passengers, However, Are Not
Accounted For.

Accounted For.
GARRIsON's STATION, N. Y, Oct. "a
Before noon General Manager Toucey had
formed an estimate of the number of dead,
which he placed at twenty-eight, and no
change in this estimate was made during
the day. A. E. Racken, conductor of the
Wagner cars, was able to account for all
his passengers excepting five, and he was
not sure that they were in the wreck, as
they might have escaped and gone to New
York without his knowledge.
When diver arrived from New York this
afternoon the first thing he did was to go
through the three submerged sleeping cars.
He reported that he found no bodies, but
said that one or more might be under the
berths, which were in great confusion.
1t was 8 o'clock before the derrick and
hoistine engine could raise the combination
cars, consisting of the smoker and baggage
compartments, to such a position that the
top of it was out of the water Slowly the
big load began to raise and in few min
utes it had been turned over so that the
windows were clear of the water. The
body of a man came out of a window as
the car was being brought to the shore. A
boat was near by and the oarsmen secured

cheap clothes and his shoes We're cheap

The Wealth of Imblay Clarke Now
Claimed by Grace NJ. Elliott.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Oct. 4.-After a
Search for heirs extending over score of
years. the vast estate of Imblay Clarke,
now appraised at $25 100000, seems about
to come to its rightful possessor. This is
the daughter Of Clarke, who was mine
owner that died in Australia over twenty
years ago. She is Grace NJ Elliott, adopted
daughter of William II. Elliott, a saloon
keeper, who took her from the Home for
the Friendless in 1878, when the matron as
sured him her parents were dead, that her
father, Imblay Clarke, left her in the home
and had afterward died in Australia Lo-
cal attorneys pronounce her papers fault
less.
A few days ago the Elliotts read dis
patch in the papers to the effect that Vice
President Hobart and Governor Griggs, Of
New Jersey, would make application fol

OF the dramatic horror of the situation
in the combination car when it left the

best account is had from the story of Her

from shock when seen, but the scenes he
graphically described. He said: John
