BAYONET FORCES
OILERS TO WORK

Galveston, Tex, Sept. 1.-THE city is
under martial law. Some order is be-
ing brought out of chaos. and some
thing like a systematic attempt is be-
ing made to clear the debris and re-
move the dead,
Idlers are being pressed into the ser
vice at the point Of the bayonet and
made to work, and a military Gordon
is being drawn tighter and tighter
abo--t the place.
Every horse and mule that was left
in the city is in service.
Supplies are coming liz from HOus-
ton, and the first line of cOmmunica-
ton with the outside world was OBJ
tanned today via Texas City.
The forces are working on railroads,
and IN a few days the people of Gal
weston believe the situation will be
greatly improved.
The horrors of Sunday were as moth
ing compared with Mondays
An attempt was made to bury the
dead, but the ground was full of water
and it was Impossible to dig trenches
ana the bodies were taken to sea for
burials.
Ghouls have stripped dead bodies OF
jewelry and articles Of value.
The remnant Of the battery of artil-
lery patrolled the streets last night
under direction of the chief of police.
The militia has been called on to send
details for service in the city.
Extent of the Havoc.
West of Thirty-third street the storm
swept the ground perfectly clear of the
residences that once stood upon il, and
piled them up FIVE blocks back of the
beach. strewing the piling with the de-
bris and bodies Of victims.
The fearful work of the storm was
not confined TO the district along the
beach. but took in all the city district
and the Denver resurvey, but it was in
the vicinity of the beach that the most
destruction to human life occurred.
The waves washed away the Home
Of the Homeless, and it is thought that
the inmates. thirteen orphans and
three lady matrons, were drowned.
The government works were greatly
| damaged. In the north part of the
west end the damage was great also
almost every building being damaged
and many completely wrecked.
The cotton and lumber yards in that
section of The city were destroyed and
much valuable machinery is ruined
However, the loss of life was not SO
heavy in that district.
Railroads Heavy Losers.
The heaviest losers by the storm will
be the Galveston Wharf company, the
Southern Pacific railway and Gulf
Colorado & Santa Fe Railway com
pany, and the Texas Lone Star Floor
ing company.
The railroads viii suffer the loss of
millions of dollars actual damage. to
say nothing of the loss from stoppage
OF business. At Galveston their
wharves, ware houses, depots and
tracks are ruined. The costly bridges
which connect the island are in ruins
and must be entirely rebuilt
The international & Great Northern
and Santa Fe have considerable track
washed out, while the Galveston. Hous-
ton & Northern will suffer heavily. Su-
per1ntendent Mulvey has received no.
tice that all the track between Sea
brooke and Virginia Point, with ali the
bridges, have been washed away. and

Washington, D. c.. Sept. 1.-THE state

his credentials are fun and authoritative,
not only for negotiations. but to enable.
MIN without further delay to give assur-
ance that the Ire and property of Ameri-
cans will henceforth be respected through
out the Chinese empire
FROM the formal statement ii appears
that the state department is not yet ready
TO begin direct negotiations with Ii Hung
Chang. 1t does not question his creden-
tisls as a psenipOtentiary, but simply
leaves the matter in allegiance. Probably
this Is because all of the powers have not
returned their RESPONSES TO the Russian
note as It IS desired osavoid the United
states first among the powers to abandon
Tor itself toward the settlement directly
with China.
