BODIES FROM THE sLocUM.
Known Victims Of Awful Disaster Nov
Number 581.

New York.-Unceasing search for
over three days and nights has result
ed Saturday night In bringing the total
to 5S1 bodies Of victims Of the awful
disaster that befell the excursion
steamer General Slocum Wednesday
Although this appalling number does
not represent the full extent of the
calamity. hopes are expressed that
comparatively few bodies remain to
be found. There is a possibility that
when the charred hulk Is brought to
the surface a considerable number OF
corpses may be within the tangled
mass Of wreckage which has defed all
the divers attempts at complete explo-
ration. Doubtless, too. many bodies
have been swept away by the whirling
currents of He'll Gate and carried out
in the broad waters Of Long Island
sound or out past Sandy Hook to the
open sea.

our guns.
Shortly afterward two more trans.
ports were sighted to the southeast.
They proved to be the Hitachi and the
Sado, the former with troops and the
latter carrying coolies, horses and a
railway plant. The transports refused
to surrender and at the end of the per-
iod granted those on board to take to
the boats, the two vessels were sunk
by tOrpedoes and shells.

months scout In Korea, brings verbal

on the Yalu river have become decid-

itants are well disposed toward the
Russians.
Many Koreans, armed and led by
Japanese officers, constitute the rear
guard Of the army.
The raiding party came in contact
with the Koreans frequently and some
times there were several skirmishes
daily. There was some heavy fighting
and one battle lasted all day long,

and the japanese lost so killed.
The Cossacks were eventually re-
pulsed by superior force of Japanese
cavalry which was sent to cut them OH
at the Yalu and which outmarched and

From the Washington Post, Dem. ~
The platform of the New York Demo-
Gratis derives its Importance chiefly from
the. fact that n is regarded as Judge
Parker's keynote. It was expected to be
conservative, and it more Than meets that
expectation. It contains more axioms
than issues and is far more suggestive
Of skim milk than Of that robust bever-
age to the use Of which virile politicians
are supposed to be addicted, although it
has never won the favor of Judge Park
er's manager, the willy Sage of Wolfert' S
Roost. =
Concedihg that in platform promu1-
gated under the unprecedented condi-
tions attending Judge Parker's candidacy
there was more danger of saying too
much than of leaving a deficit, II does
not follow that" a caution and reticence
strongly limiting at timidity should have
characterized the performance. There
was room for sharp arraignment, but
that is not apparent; there was occasion
for frank and fearless enunciatlon of pol
icies that would challenge vigorous oppo-
sition and enthuse all the elements of the
electorate outside the ranks of hide
bound Republicanism. But the desidera-
tum is not visible. An evident purpose 10

bill had been drawn by Judge Koch.
Tim called the governors attention
to that, and remarked that the state

judge the constitutionality of the bill.
