The engineer misunderstood the signals
and there was a frightful railroad coils
ion, with terrible loss of life. The whole
country was appalled, by that accident.
There is doubtless a far greater loss of
life occurring every day, in various Sec
tons OF the country, for which the ONLY
excuse is,-''the doctor didn't under
stand the symptoms" These cases are
not he subjects of special inquest or the
country would be aglIast at the sacrifice
of life to ignorance.
1t has been the experience of DIR. K. V.
Pierce and his staff of assistant physi.
clans, that ninety eight out of every
hundred persons submitting TO their

ishment. 1t is soaked with water and
provisions that have been treated to
a bath are not very palatable. The
provisions that reached here today
came from Houston by steamer, but
there are so many to feed hat it did
not go far. A crowd quickly gathered,
and the provisions were distributed in
a short time. Many hurried away
with what they got to their families.
Others got cooked food and ate it
where they were.
The dead are still being searched
out and buried, some of them in the
sea and some of them in the sand on
the beach and still others in the Gene
teries. There are no collins left. PEG.
pie are knocking together pine boxes
and getting lumber from the ruins of
their homes in which to bury their
dead. They cannot take them to the
cemeteries, so they bury them in what
was once their yards, intending to in
ter them in cemeteries after matters
have assumed their normal aspect.
The dead who have no relatives left
are treated with scant courtesy.
There is no time for ceremony, and
they are put into the sand of the beach
or into the gulf.
The injured are being taken care Of
as well as could be expected. Physi-
clans are on the go all the time. Those
who are not badly hurt are being put
aside temporarily for those who real.
ly require the services Of doctors or
surgeons, and these are many-so
many that their number cannot be
computed with accuracy. OF those
who are slightly hurt there are
some thousands, as the majority OF the
people one meets in the streets have
wounds or bruises Of some kind.

the Rosenberg school is only probe

of the people escaped before the build

Scenes of Horror Witnessed in the
Stricken City-First Relief Ar

Houston, Tex, Sept. 12.-The loss
of life at Galveston is now conserva'
lively estimated at 5000, while many
believe that from 5000 to 10, 900 people
have persisted.
Houston, Tex. Sept. 1.-THE ghouls
have been holding an orgie over the
dead at Galveston. The majority OF
these men were negroes but there were
also whites who tool part in the des-
~ecration of the dead. Some of them
were natives and some had been al
lowed to go over from the mainland
under the guise of relief" workers.
Not only did they rob the dead but
they m%utilated bodies in order to Sc
cure their ghoulish booty.
A party of ten negroes when return
ing from a looting expedition were
shot on the spot.
They had stripped corpses of all val
uables and the pockets of some of the
looters were fairly bullying out with
fingers of the dead which had been cut
off because they were so swollen the
rings could not be removed.
Incensed at this Dissertation and
mutilation of the dead the looters
were shot down and it has been deter
mined that all found in the act of rob-
bling the dead shall be summarily shot.
Fingers and Ears Cut Of.
During the robbing of the dead not
only were fingers cut off, but ears were
stripped from the head in order to Sc
cure jewels OF vaIue.
A few government troops who sur
vived and private citizens have been
patroling the city and have e%ndeavor-
ed to prevent the robbing of the dead
and on several occasions have killed
offenders. 1t is said that at one time
eight were killed and at another time
four. Altogether the total of those
thus executed exceeds fully fifty.
Houston, Tex, Sept. 12.-Order has
begun to take the place of chaos which
has reigned In Galveston since Satur-
days terrible storm, and citizens are
recovering from the stupefaction of
their sudden disaster. All conserva-
estimates have been shattered by the
estimates of Mayor Jones of Galveston
and other prominent and conservative
men, who in a statement to the Asso-
ciated Press, declare hat 5000 deaths
will result from the storm.
Late advices say that 700 human
bodies have been weighted and sunk
at sea-some identified, but more GO
ing to their graves unknown.
Martial law prevails now and van
dalism is being brought to a sudden
check. Sickening details of the work
of ghouls in mutilating and robbing the
dead have been received and half a
hundred of these men have paid the
penalty of their crimes by summary
death.
Many deaths are resulting from un-
avoidable neglect and the sanitary con
dition and superhuman efforts are
being made to clear up the mass of
debris which bids fair to breed pesti-
lence.
