New Haven, Aug 12.--M. J. O'Hara, the missing keeper of re- cords, Improved Order of Red Men, of Elmira, IN. Y., who disappeared on his way to the great council session at Gloversville, has been in this city, and started to return home last night. While here he was in care of Maurice Meany, a distant relative, and according to the latter O'Hara was probably drugged on the train. Mir Meany says that O'Hara came here Tuesday from Hartford and ex- plained that while on the train from Elmira to Gloversville early Sunday morning he accepted an invitation to take drink from a bottle which a chance acquaintance, who professed to be delegate to the great council handed him. According to O'Hara's story he shortly after felt the effects of the liquor but was unable to con trol his actions and it was not until Tuesday morning that he was able to definitely make up his mind what to do. He says that he found himself to be in Hartford so he took a train for New Haven to see MT Meany and get medicak treatment. At his request MT Meany last night sent g message to Elmira informing rela- tives that O'Hara was all right Af- ter that MT O'Hara started for the railroad station to return home.

An Immense Deposit of Qu1cIxsand at
 Eden's Wrecked Bridge.
 PUEBLO, Colo, Aug. 12.-During the funerals of many victims of the Eden disaster all the large business houses were closed, notices posted on the doors reading; Because of the city's Iead."s
 Further shipments of bodies to points outside this state included Captain Frank Bodeman to Florence, Mass; Miss Carrie O. Bishop to Hartford Conn, and Mrs. l.. A. Stevens to Northampton, Mass.
 Developments indicate that the bodies of the missing victims have been suck ed into the quicksand and will never be recovered. It was shown by the hoisting of the wrecked engine that an immense deposit of quicksand lay under the piers of the wrecked bridge, and, it is also believed there is an un- derflow that has carried bodies deep down into the sand. \
 Careful revision of the lists of dead and missing confirms the original esti- mate that not less than 100 lives were lost

The Two riurderers of Americans in

Fl Paso, Tex, Aug. Police Commandant Torres of Aguas Calien- tes, village of Sinaloa, Mexico, and the two policemen who killed Clarence Way and Edward Latimer, Americans, have been sentenced to be shot. The sentence was to have been executed this week but influential relatives of Torres secured stay of execution. A pardon for Torres is not looked for, however, as the sentiment is high against him.
