sOr Hotel Fire.
New York, March 2O.-Search of the
ruins of the Windsor hotel was begun
by a large force of laborers. The fire
Is still smoldering, despite steady pour
of streams of water from two fire en-
gines throughout the night. The big
Office safe was dug out apparently in

jewelry, purses, bundles of papers,
photographs and wearing apparel
which had belonged to occupants of the

The wormen with picks and spades
were called off, and others put to work

was felt that the bodies, If any were UNI
covered, would be so badly burned that
Identification would be almost impossi-
BILE except by means of some personal
belongings. The first body found was
discovered little later by the workmeli
on the Forty-siXth street side of the
ruins, ten feet from the sidewalk, and
twenty feet from the rear of the build
ing. The first seen of it was the skele-
ton of the breast, including the ribs ana
breastbone. Close by foot with nearly
all the flesh on it was found. 1t ap-
peared to have been severed from the
leg by the falling of some heavy piece
of debris. second body was found IL,
the debris where the office had been.
1t, like the first, was burned beyond
the possibility of recognition.
The bodies were examined at Belle

the dead wagon. Body No. 1 is that OF
a man. The trunk is near complete, but
the legs, arms and head are missing.
Body No. is that of young woman.
