New YORK, March 23.-Beside the Is

have been in the Windsor hotel when
it was destroyed on Friday, are yet un-
accounted for. No bodies were recOv-

o'clock Wednesday night a fragment
of charred flesh was found on the 5th

other bodies were found, but deeper

One has partly been identified by two

Identification is not conclusive.
The rain Wednesday interfered with
the rapid progress of the work to some
extent and it was not until the after
noon that the workers succeeded in
getting steadily down to the removal
of the debris. The fire department
still has it's lines about the ruins, isc-
lating a considerable section of one OF
the busiest parts of the city.
A force of about $50 men was en-
ployed throughout the afternoon and
a new shift of the same number was
put on at night.

THE UNFORTUNATE BLUNDER
The French Cable Co. Responsible for the
Erroneous Announcement of the Death
of Hon. John Sherman,

SANTIAGO, March 23.-It now turns
respecting the unfortunate re-
ports of Mr.. Sherman's death, which
were the main topic of conversation
here Wednesday-that the announce
ment was made by the French Cable
Co. and the signal corps within ten
minutes of each other. When Capt.
Leigh, the chief signal officer, ascer-
tanned that the report was erroneous
he Immediately communicated with
the Guantanamo station to discover
the cause of the blunder.
The man in charge of the station re-
piled that, having received message
of inquiry as to Mr.. Sherman's health
and not having any information him
self. he visited the manager of the
French Cable Co., who assured him
that the report of death was well
founded. Thereupon he telegraphed
a confirmation of the rumor, having
no reason to doubt the assurance given
him. The French Cable Co.'S officials
here claim to know nothing regarding
the matter.
Mr.. Sherman's relatives on board
the Paris are naturally very indignant
at somebody's stupendous blunder, but
Capt. Leigh considers that the man in
charge OF the Guantanamo signal Office
was entirely justified in accepting the
statement of the French Cable Co. s

not see it. Then a carriage, the driver
of which wore a high hat and blue
coat with brass buttons, whirled past.
The hoofs of the horses knocked the
blood-stained messenger out of Gielow's
sight.
His heart sank within him. Trem-
blingly he took off his remaining cuff,
but the blood drop had become smeared
and dry on his wrist, and his right
hand shook pitifully.
Its no use," he said, with groan.
Again he peered through the crevice.
The sun seemed to be going down. The
lovers had risen, and, arm in arm, were
strolling away. For a few moments
Gielow lay motionless on the straw,
then he tried to replace the wedge of
stone to hide the opening from Ban
tinni but he was so weak that it fell
from bis nerveless fingers.
All at once it grew dark about him.
He felt as if he were being tossed on the
bosom of an angry sea.
Twenty-four hours later there was a
hurried step outside. The door opened
and Count Bantinni came in, holding a
lantern over his head. He brought pen,
ink, pad of paper and an envelope.
The darkness outside and the shine of
his lantern prevented his seeing the
crack in the rock.
Putting the lantern down by the ar
tist, he shook him violently.
'Wake up" he said, grufiy. 81 want

But Gielow die not stir.

And he is weary of the grind.
And work that follows day by day,
And dark forebodings fill his mind
AS he is forced to toll away.
He sees his neighbor loll at ease
And hears of trips to foreign lands,

And frets. but no one understands!
He frets, but IA one understands.

THE AMERICAN COMMISSION.
Self-Government and Perfect Lib
erty Is offered.

New YORK, March 2S.-The Journals
Manila correspondent cabled Wednes
day that the address to the natives OF
the Philippine islands, drafted by the
American commission in behalf of the
United States government and en-
bodying the views of the president, has
been made public. After being trans
lated into all the native dialects it is
to be disseminated throughout the
archipelago.
The address assures the Filipinos OF
the intention of the Americans to de-
velop the powers of self-governmenti in
the people. 1t explains that the United
States has assumed international obi
cations which it must fulfill and which
makes it responsible to the whole civ
ilized world for the stable government
of the Philippines. The commission,
it is explained, is to interpret to the
natives the purposes and inten
tions of the president toward
them, and also suggest the establish
ment of such a government as shal
suit the capacity and requirements o.
the Filipinos and be consistent with
the interests of the United States
The protection of the United States i:
not to be exercised in any spirit o.
tyranny or vengeance; but having de
stroyed the Spanish power anC
accepted the sovereignty of the
islands, the United States il
bound to restore peace in the
Philippines. To this end all insur
gents are invited to lay down theil
arms and place their trust in the gov
ernment that emanated out of the op
preston of Spanish rule. The major
ity of the commissioners incline to
ward giving the Filipinos a sort O.
tribal or provincial local autonomy un
der central government, which shall
be military until purely civil system
is proved to be feasible.
