Houston, Texas, September 11.-People
from Galveston are now numerous and
all tell of terribly calamity. More
bodies have been picked up on the beach
at Virginia Point and Texas City and
searching parties are getting into the
country between the two points. One
member OF the life-saving crew says he
believes that not one-third OF the dead
bodies are being recovered. Many sank
before reaching the beach and he believes
a week Will pass before the bay gives up
all the dead
A man who arrived from Galveston
today says that bodies are being cast
into the gulf with weights attached as
the best method of disposing of them,
wAIle others are being buried In the sand
where found. Many OF these are uniden-
titled and so the death list win never be
known. Scores of people are here trying
to get into Galveston. Many of them
claim relatives there but it is not possi-
bic to reach that city at present. All the
small boats and tugs in the bayou have
been taken down to the bay to be used
in ferriage.
The great storm covered large area of
the cotton growing section of Texas and
did tremendous damage to the crops. A
travelling man who covers big area Of
the state reports that four hundred miles
west Of Houston the wind and storms
have wrought great havoc and chances
for a crop have been destroyed. South
west of Houston, the fields are ruined.
In large cotton growing counties around
Houston, it is said crops have been beat
en- into the ground and are worthless.
The revised list OF known dead makes
a list of about 500 people. Mr., Davis
whom a reporter met on Avenue P
and Both street where he was trying to
find the body OF his wife under the de.
bris, said that there was 30 people IN the
place when the building collapsed.
Among the saddest Of many sad incl
dents OF the storm was the loss of the
families of two police officers while the
husbands and fathers were enga ged in
rescue work.
Officer joe Bird and Officer J John Row.
an were assigned to rescue work in the
east end early Saturday afternoon and
together with other officers they worked
faithfully to succor water bound families
near the gulf. They rescued about 100
people from the fury of the storm. They
returned to the station only when the
high water foated the patrol wagon and
threatened to drown the team of horses
attached to it. They had no idea that
the waters of the gulf had invaded the
western portion OF the city, where 5hey
lived, until they returned to the police
station and heard the report. Rowan
and Bird started Immediately for their
homes but their families had been swept
away. Officer Bird lost his wife and five
children and Officer Rowan his wife and
three children.

1T has been discovered that the EN-
