Galveston, Sept. 21.-The first train

Trains are now running regularly. More

building OF the temporary bridge, 21s
miles long, was q remarkable achieve
ment Of engineering.
Martial law Is at an end.
The conditions continue to improve
rapidly. Every one is so busy that there
is little time to mourn over ones losses.
This is doubtless fortunate for the suffer-
crs. FOR instead of spending their time
in g:'ieving they forget their troubles and
lend helping hand toward the better
mcnt Of existing conditions. The number
of patients in the various hospitals is
much smaller than would have been ex-
pected considering the number of dead.
This is due to the fact that few who We're
entirely helpless succeeded in escaping
alive. There are several hundred per-
sons who were more or less bruised but
their wounds are rapidly healing.
The general health Of the city, accord
ing to DR.. Wilkinson, is better than un-
der normal conditions. The number of
people leaving the city is decreasing, and
there is no longer any necessity for sick
and injured to 20 elsewhere for medical
attention.
