E Birmingham, March l2-(Special.)-A number Of bones were dug up from under the wreck on Tuesday last on the Ala bama Great Southern Railroad between the fast south-bound train No. 1, limited passenger. and a northbound Southern Railway freight train near Kewanee, Miss, and there Is no doubt but that this is all that remains of Patrick H. Larkin. the engineer who was on the passenger train. Near this pile of charred bones and little flesh were found also a piece ofsAhe overalls worn by Larkin, his watch and chain and a small bunch of keys. The remains were placed in casket and have been carried to Chattanooga, where they will be inferred.
 A committee of the Brotherhood of Lo- comotive Engineers accompanied the re- mains to Chattanooga.
 Remains found In the wreckage We'd nesday were at first thought to be those of Larlkin. but an investigation and ex- animation of teeth positively showed that they were those of the mail weigher, Da- vidson. and they were buried in Chatta- nooga last afternoon.
 The search for some trace. of the un- fortunate engineer was not forsaken, and the little pile of bones and flesh has now been found. The relatives of Larkin were promptly notified of the find. and the fu- neral will take place tomorrow.
