house, shows rs unaccounted for. OF
this number, four are not known at the
addresses given by the persons report
ing them as missing Out Of the whole
number, eight are put down by the po-
lice as employees Of Tarrant & Co.
Not a single body up to 10 O'Clock to-
night has been found in the ruins,
though what looked like parts Of bodies
have been dug out. 1t IS thought nov
that any remains found in the mass of
debris will be unrecognizabIes even
should tn. workmen find them. because
of the tremendous heat and the fusinS
of materials. For instance. what was
supposed to be parts of bodies taken
from the ruins. last night. turned out
on examination at the morgue to be
blackened pieces of melted gum arabic.
Again. today, another mass was found
which the workmen first thought to be
human flesh. but is now thought to be
melted rubber The searchers have
found in the ruins of the Home Made
hotel a number Of articles. but whether
their owners escaped or not is involved
in mystery.

vestigation into the amount Of explo-
sives stored in the building with view
