BURNING BODIES
OF FLOOD VICTIMS
Corpses Thrown Into the Sea Washed
Ashore-New Horror Confronts
Galveston Sorrowers.
(By Associated Press.)

DALLAS, September 13.-The cry still
comes from Galveston for disinfectaniS.
1t is the one hope OF saving what is left
of the population. kilograms are pouring
into Dallas and every other Texas city
asking for lime, carbolic acid and anything
else that will operate to purify the sitting
conditioEs. The supply of disinfectants
here is almost exhausted
A new horror is confronting Galveston.
It is a second disposition of many OF the
dead. Bodies thrown into the sea are
floating back to the city. They must now
De disposed of by burning. Disinfectants
become more necessary.
State troops that have been on duty at
Galveston are breaking down from their
e2ertions and the unsanitary conditions
Adjutant-General Scurry to-day called out
the Dallas Rough Riders of the First
Cavalry to relieve the exhausted Light
Guards The Rough Riders under COM
nand of Captain Paset will at once start
for Galveston.
Relief work is down to systematic
bass Dallas is the principal point of
concentration and distribution for more
than one-half OF the State and much of
the country outside of Texas. BY actual
count 2G6 communities have renftted their
contributions of money, clothing. food.
drugs etc. TO Dallas. Counting what has
been received by Governor Sayers and the
relief committee at Galveston and Hous-
ton, approximately $4,000 worth of re-
lief has been obtained and the stream is
increasing in volume.
Ten times as much, however, as has
been donated will be needed before the
distress is safely relieved. Drugs, disin-
fectants and clothing are the most press
ing needs.
