New York, March 1S.-Archibald
Clavering Gunter, the we'll known nov
elist, was a patron of the Windsor
hotel and it is feared by friends who
have not seen him since the fire that
he lost his life with his child.
New York, March 1S.-Through the
incessant rain to-day, their efforts him
dered by a choking smoke that arose
from the half-Quenched ruins, more
than 200 men from the building, po-
lice and fire departments sought, but
with only half satisfying results, for
bodies of persons believed to have per-
lshed in yesterdays fire at the Wind
sor Hotel.
Most of the time the smoke was so
dense that the workmen could scarcely
see their hands before their faces and
h heat from the mass of debris,
glowing red in places, held the rescu-
ers almost beyond its limits. Besides
the remnants of the walls left stand
ing were so shaky and threatening that
it would have been dangerous to allow
the men to work about the mass of
iron and brick. Efforts were concen-
trated on clearing away the debris, re-
moving weak walls, drilling the CHM
neys and other parts of the walls for
blasting, and making the way safe for
the men to dig in the ruins for the
bodies.
No more bodies were taken from the
seething mass of ruins to-day. The
latest estimate tonight is sixteen
dead, siXty-six missing and f~ifty-seven
injured.
1t is believed the men will be able
to proceed with the grewsome search
tomorrow with lore satisfactory re-
suits. Several fire engines had kept
their stations all night long, throwing
heavy streams of water onto the ruins.
Occasionally a mass of fame would
struggle up from the unnoticed spot
like a bubble and burst away as the
streams were played on it. Throughout
the day explosions of gas p~unctuated
the continual pumping of the engines.
