Survivors Reach Cincinnati.

Cincinnati. April 21.-The Big Four brought thirty-seven survivors of the City of Pittsburg here tonight. They had been previously accounted for in the list of passengers and crew saved as published in these dispatches. They therefore did not relieve the pressure at the office of the Memphis, New Orleans and Cincin- natl Packet Company. where crowds have been making inquiries all day for missing friends. Among those for whom great anxiety is felt here are Harry Brownfield of Covington, Ky. who was the pianist on the steamer. Dr. Dow of Memphis and Glen Bowman. who was en route to St. Lous.
 At least ten victims were from this city and towns on the Kentucky side of the river.

Only Three Identified.

A careful estimate by those who were aboard the City of Pittsburg tonight puts | the loss of life at sixty-three at the low est ,and the opinion of some who have kept a tab on the missing is that the list will approximate 100. Of this appalling death list only three bodies have been recovered and identified up to a late hour tonight.
 The insurance men and wreckers ar rived tonight from Cincinnati, and it is thought their investigation will bring out
 more than has been disclosed today. All
 of the injured are doing we'll. and all who escaped from the burning boat without their effects have been clothed and made comfortable and most of them have de- parted for their homes. The inquiries to- day confirmed the report that Harlow Dove of Ashland was among those who perished.
 L. l.. Hunter, who has been listed as Tidioute, Pa, is said to have had very large lumber interests with headquarters search for his body. No attempt to re- cover bodies has been made yet in either the wreck or the river.
 The crew. except the captain and clerk, departed today for Cincinnati, and in- cluded: Glenn Crawford( Harry Clemson, James Holland. s. M. McGowan, James Marshall. c. II. Clifford. James Neville, Pilot Doss, Fred Rents, Ed Holly. Mau- rice Judd. William Whitney and some seventeen rousters Pilot Pritchart. wife and girl have gone to Paducah.

Ky. have gone to Memphis: Don Buchanan to Sikeston. Mo; J. R. Milligan has gone to Memphis.
 The Cairo ladies today gave generously of their clothing. shoes. skirts. wrappers. hoisery, etc. to those needing these ar- ticles. A passenger and his two sons were driven by the heat to the rear of the boat. and. stepping off the end, all three dropped into the river saying, We will all die together" They were all drowned.

the contract for building the tunnel,

work was begun. The penalty for
