rem Send Car Of Flowers.

SALT LAKE, Utah, May s.-The
latest dispatches from scoheld say that
the extreme estimate Of dead are now
conceded to have been too large and 4!
is numerically impossible to place the
loss of life at 900. as there were not that
many men In the mines. The probabIli-
ties are that $50 will be about the total
number of dead. Relatives of the VIC
Tins continue to arrive from all the sur
rounding towns.
The body Of Tom Bugdon, Of North
Lawrence. Ohio, was located to-day in
mine No. /.
There are not enough collins in the
camp to bury the dead and to add hor-
ror to the situation, the bodies are rap
idly decomposlng and 1t has been sug-
gested that cremation will have to pc
resorted to.
There are afty bodies for which no
provision for burial has been made.
A joint committee of odd Fellows and
knights Of Pythias spent the day
among the dead, Identifying members
of their orders. They found about
twenty of each order among the dead.
The school children Of this city have
gathered a carload of flowers which will
be sent to scoheld, d,saparlHteadentW Well
sy having placed a special car at their
disposal for that purpose.
Subscriptions for the relief Of the suf-
ferers are coming in from all over the
state and the total now amounts to
$4,000.
