New York: Probably more than 1000
persons were burned to death or
drowned by the burning of the KniCk-
erbocker steamboat company's triple
deck steamboat Gen. Slocum, in the
East river Wednesday afternoon, while
the boat was passing through Hell's
Gate. 4 he vessel burned to the waters
edge and sank off North Brother
Island. Nearly all of those who were
burned or drowned were women and
children members of the Sunday School
Of st. Marks Lutheran church. in Sixth
street. The excursionists we're en-
route to picnic grounds up the river.
Between 1.40O and 1900 persons. so
far as can be learned, started out on
the Slocum. Nearly q third Of them
were babies. Try as best they could
the police and hospital authorities and
the officers of the church reported
Wednesday night that they cannot find
more than 300 or 400 survivors, hence
many believe the dead will reach 1000
Nothing approaching the disaster has
happened in New York waters before.
The exact number of the women and
children who were killed will not be
known for several days 1t is certain
that more than 500 corpses have been
recovered already. 1t is believed that
many-perhaps hundreds more-still
! lie in the entrance Of the sound, Just
| outside Hells Gate, and that they
will be brought to the surface day by
day. Many corpses are being recov-
cred hourly and the lists of missing
have reached an appalling length.

GEN. TYNER APPEALS
TO ROOSEVELT
Asks That Charges Made Against
Him Be Withdrawn.

Washington: Enfeebled by the
weight of years, and broken by the
troubles which have come upon him
late in life, James N. Tyner, former
Postmaster General of the United
States, has appealed to President
Roosevelt, to withdraw the charges
of gross CORRUPTION" made against
him in the White House review of the
Bristow postal scandal report.
General Tyner was only a few weeks
ago acquitted of charge of conspir-
acy to defraud the government, and
the indictments brought against his
son-in-law. Harrison ]. Barrett, were,
quashed after the first trial had drag
ged on interminably. Much pity has
been excited for the old man, who, In
an invalids chair, was daily wheeled
into the courtroom.
1t cannot be learned what the Presi-
dent will do with General Tyner's
letter. He did not answer the protest
which General Tyner sent him after
the publication Of the Bristow report
last year, and there is reason
to believe that the President stills
holds to the views which he then
expressed.

Ell upon the territory within the bound.

released.
The men sent out Tuesday are near
ly all union men or union sympa-
thizers. Quite a number of them are
married. Food was taken on the train
for the prisoners.
Preparations are under way here
looking to the eventual abrOgation of
martial law. which It is expected will
take place In one week. A large num-
Der of Deputy Sherifrs will be com
missioned to take charge of the dis
trict under Sheriff Bell. when marital
law Is declared on.
A list of men to act in that capacity
is being prepared.
Other deportations will be made,
but just when the next train-load OF
men will be ready to be sent out is
not stated at military headquarters. It
is very quiet here, and has beoa all
