The North German Lloyd Steamship
company has notified Coroner Hoffman
of Hoboken to see that all the unidcnti
fed and unclaimed dead have respecta

Accordingly Coroner Hoffman is making
arrangements to have all the bodies in
the New York molgue taken to iIObokcn.
He has not yet arranged the details fol
the burial of the remains. In many
eases the victims bodies had been burn
ed and charrcd in such horrible manner
as to be hcNond recognition. These Will
be buried first. Those that may be iden-

The Search For Bodies.
The search for bodies ON the Saale is
attended with much difficulty. The yes
sells upper deck is awash aft, and hel
bow is seven feet deep in mud. 1t IL
believed there are many bodies in the
stokehold, and to reach that part of the
ship gangs of men are at work breaking
up and removing the cargo and the
iron gratings which bar the way. As
soon as the cargo and ir0nwOrk are re-
moved the Saale will be pumped out and
hoated.
Fourth Officer Oscar Book and Third
Mac....nist Otto Brockhoff are in charge
of the work on the Saale. Both men
were aboard during the fire Saturday
and are indignant at the treatment ac.
corded them by the tugboat captains
9-'nm they asked for assistance while
strn Cling in the water Book said al
least three captains wanted to know how
much they would pay to be rescued
The fourth pulled them out Of the water
without asking any questions. Book
says he saw one sailor who was trying tC
get aboard tugboat and was pushed
back into the water with boat hook
by a tugbOat hand.
The fire is still burning in the hull OF
the Main. This vessel carried a crew ot
1877 men. OF whom about 10 have beer
accounted for.
The reports as to the number of lives
lost still seem TO be guesswork. No one
seems to he able to form correct idea
as to the number Of persons who lost theil
lives i'm the great fire 1t is stated that

are missing. These. together with tn,

Municipal Government as Illustrated
by the Charter, Finances, and Public
Charities of New York" by Bird S. Co
Ter. Comptroller of the City, is a small
book which contains much interesting ma
terial for thought and study As the con
ditious which prevail in New York are to
a certain extent common to all large eli
ties. this book will be interesting to phi
lanthropists and sociologists almost ev-
erywhere. Among the subjects dealt with
are public charity, the water supply.
TRANSPORTATION. city development and the
church in politics. and as certain funda-
mental laws govern the administration of
public affairs in every community, from
the village to the metropolis, some of
these chapters will be instructive reading
even to the inhabitant of a small town.
Mr.. Coler handles abuses with gloves off.
and from what he says one may infer
that there is need for outspokenness on
certain subjects.
In the chapter on the water supply he
denounces the Ramapo Water Company
and all its works in no Unmeasured terms,
and advocates municipal ownership OF the
city water works. The chapter on trans
portation contains discussion on the
relative merits OF bridges and tunnels, ad-
yocating the latter as less expensive,
more useful. and more practicable in ev-
cry way.
One of the most sensible clear and in
structiye of these brief essays on munich
pal government is that on the relation of
the church to politics. 1t may be intend
ed to hit Parkkurst and other political
