TOTAL DEAD ITO.
Nearly Every Family At 6oysrso~n y
Affected.

Boyertown. Pa, Jan. l6.-Whsn
njshtfall put stop to the work OF Ie-
covering the dead from the ruins OF the
Rhoades opera house, where Monday
n;oht,s holocaust occurred, the official
roll Of victims numbered 1877 Wheth-
er any more bodies are buried beneath
the ruins cannot be positively stated,
bnt it IL the belief Of those who had
charge of the grewsome work that all
of the dead have been removed, and
that the total list Of victims will not go
over ITO. The ratio OF women and girls
to men and boys Is about to l.. Work
of Identification will not be begun until
TO-DAY. az most of the bodies are still
lying In confused stas at the four
improvised morgues.
The population Of the place Ia about
Q 800, and the disaster paralyzed the
town, and the people are going about
dazed. II Is safe to say that everybody
in the places either lost one or more
relatives or was intimately acquainted
with those who died In the fire. In
several cases, whole families were
wiped out.
tt was almost daylight yesterday be-
fore the flames were extinguished and
rescuers were able to enter the ruins TO
remove the dead. The morning was
bitter cold, and by the time the be-
numbed and exhausted firemen began
the task OF disentangling the mass OF
burned beams and twisted iron the en-
tire ruins were coated with ice and
there was danger Of the walls falling.
The work was slow at first and 1t was 7
O'Clock before the first body was re-
moved.

TENANTS IN RIOTS.
Object to Paying More Than Rate

Side landlord was trying to evict result.
cd yesterday In the gathering Of crowd
OF two thousand or more sympathizers
in the neighborhood, who made &c
much trouble for the police that The
precinct reserves were called out. Dur.
ing the rioting four women and a num-
Der OF men were taken into custody.
The riotous demonstration began
when city marshal and about 25 as
slstants visited the block on the south
side of East One Hundred and Fourth
street, between First and Second ave.
nues, with 80 dispossess warrants for
families who had unitedly demanded
reductions in rents Of dollar month
and had refused to pay the landlord s
collector more than the new rate thew
had fixed. The taking out of the furn-
iture from the rooms of the first family
visited was the signal for an attack on
the marshal and his men by scores Of
tenants.
angry women surrounded patrol
man who had gone to the marshaps as
aistance and had half torn his coat from
MS back when assistance arrived. He
SIrested iour women. Several demon
serative men were also sent to the sta
tion house. The police were by this
time struggling with little success to
dlsperse an increasing crowd of angry
oeesmonstiators, but other arrests by the
omcers finally had the effect of putting
stop to the trouble.
Inc Immediate purpose of the dem
was effected, the marshal
oecloing not to attempt the serving of
more dispossess warrants al the time

POLITICS FIGURE LARGELY


Portland, Jan. 17.--In his opening
address in the Hall-mays conspiIac.
trial yesterday, Francis J. Heney charg
cd that:
Hall wanted resppointment as Unit
ed States district attorney and sought
election OF Senators Mitchell and Full
ton to that end.
He forced State Senator w. W. Stei'
wer to vote for Fulton In February,
1908, by threatening steiwer and others
with criminal prosecution (Hall then
being United States district attorney
for illegal fencing Of public lands.
Fulton was party to this deal with
6teiwer and used his influence In stei-
wer's behalf to cause Hall to institute
civil proceedings sgainst steiwer In
stead of criminal.
Brownell wanted to succeed Hall and
bad pledges OF support from Mitchell
and Fulton. Hall forced Brownell to
retire and 10 TO notify Mitchell and
Fulton, by threatening Brownell with
for acknowledging forged
land papers. for which Brownell later
was indicted through Heney.
Hall threatened Hermann, William
son and Mitchell with land-frsud In
dletment II they did not secure bis re-
appointment.
Hall had agreement with 6teiwer,
and Hendricks by which he
allowed them to maintain their illegal
fences, this being The alleged .conspir-
10Y.
Hall says he and Mays will beth take
The stand In their own defense.
l.. r.. Webster, attorney for Hall,
'aid that when his client first learned
II the Illegal fences in 1901, he noti-
led Steiwer, ct al, that they must not
ence government land. Webster de-
lied that Hall was actuated by ulterior
motives, politics or other.
Witnesses Putnam and King testified |
hat they informed Hall by letter of
be fences as early as March, 1900. |
The fences were not removed until |
9O6, after Hall was ousted from office. |
