BODIES RECOVERED
AT JACKSONVILLE.

Jacksonville, Fla, May 6--The
body of Harry Bonnetbeau, real es-
tate dealer, was recovered this morn
ing from st. Johns river. The bodies
of two negroes were also recovered.
All the victims were of Fridays disas-
trous fire. There were many rumors of
loss of life, but owing to the depart
ure of thousands of people from the
city, it will be impossible for several
days to verify the reports unless
bodies are found. The vast army of
idle negroes is likely to cause some
trouble. 1t is believed before the day
is over all negroes who will not go to
work at 81 a day and rations will be de-
ported. Martial law continues to be
rigidly enforced.
