Atlantic City. N. j., Oct, s1-Two
more bodies were added to the list of
those recovered from the wreck of the
electric train at Thoreughfare bridge
when the middle car was partially
raised from its bed in the mud The
corpse of aged Mrs Sarah Miller Of
Philadelphia, her gray. hair streaming
loose in the waters, was the FIRST dis
covered as the car swung up in@the
grip of powerful steel cables 1t was
pulled through window and lifted
into boat. Soon after the divers
found the body of Mrs. Julius Feis-
burg OF Philadelphia, whose husband,
a physician, also pershed In the wreck,
and later that of Mrs Selma johnson.
The discovery of the bodies was tka
result of the almost successful effcrt
of the wreckers to lift the car free OF
the mud and water with powerful
cranes. The chains snapped, however,
and the car plunged back again into
the water. carrying down any other
bodies that may be in it.
More Bodies In Car.
The. wreckers started at once with
divers to chain the car again, and it is
unlikely that dynamite will be used
until it is certain that no more bodies
remain in the wreckage. Men who
found the bodies of the women say
that they saw one or two others in the
water flowing through the aisle, but
could not reach them.
The official list of the dead recovered
now reaches ffty-thrce, with all pesi-
lively identified except a man suppos-
ed to be William Braney of Philadel-
phia. The partial Identification was
made through letters and papers found
in the pockets Of the dead mans coat,
but every effort to reach relatives has
been fruitless, and the body win be
held until the identification is made
complete
-Four Still Missing.
The known missing who are pinned
in the wreck or af1cat in the waters of
the Thoroughfare includes Armand Te-
desco of New York, whose sweetheart
died beside him; Joseph McElrcy, a
two -year-old boy, whose mothers body
has already been found; Henry Burch
of Camden and Mrs. Salina Miller of
Camden, a eoloFed woman.
The railroad officials and the coroner
assert their belief that all the passen-
gers on the doomed train are now ac-
counted for. Several persons reported
missing have been found TO have Iefe
the train farther up the read.
If the numerous road and native ex-
perts brought here by the railroads
have discovered the real cauEe of the
disaster they have managed to keep it
senet, and both Coroner Gai1kfll ana
the experts he has employed declare
themselves nonplused.
Awful Struggle to Escape.
The front ear. dragged from the wss
ter, was placed on improvisod tracks
and run into the railroad yard, where
curious crowds gathered to look at it.
Backs and rails of seats have been torn
asunder, showing the awful struggle
that must have taken place among the
passengers when they found them
selves prisoners in the rising waters.
No arrests of the train crew who es-
capped or the bridge tenders have yet
been made, but they have been warned
not to leave the city until they can bA
called as witnesses.
