Condition of Bodies Rem
ders the Work Exceed
ingIy Difficult.
MANY WERE COOKED
Water Used to ExtinguIsh Fire
Heated ard Boiled Them
All Suffocated.

Cherry, Ill, Nov. 1e.-The second
and saddest act of the mine tragedy,
the recovery and attempted identtnca-
tion of the dead, began today. Be
sides the bodies recovered so OF 76
others beyond reach for the time be-
ing because Of fire. were seen by fire
fighters in the smoldering fire beyond.
Many Turn Away
Grief stricken men, women and chill
dren formed great circles about the
bodies brought UP, but many turned
away unable TO endure the sobs and
cries of those who mourned seeking
their dead Only two bodies have so
far been identified, Dickie Buckles. a
stable boy, and Louis Gibbs.
Bring Up Through Main Shaft.
Cherry, ILL.,, Nov. 19.-Three bodies,
the first recovered through the main
shaft, were brought to the surface at
s o'clock. A pile of others were in
sight, but passage to them was ham,
pered by fire. Four other bodies were
brought up on the next trip of the cage,
one of them a boy.
The ambulance was guarded by mill
tiamen and followed by crowds to the
town hall, which has been turned into
a temporary morgue. Here scores of
women sought to identify the dead as
their own, but the condition of the bod
les made this difficult.
Two or More Claim Same Bodies.
There is much confusion in the fden-
tification of bodies, in some instances
two or three persons claiming the
same body. The Identification of the
two is now In doubt The condition
of the bodies recovered shows clearly
they died from suffocation and that
they have been dead many days.
Cook I'm Water.
Water was poured into the mine
during the fire without quenching II.
The flames turned the water on the
floors of the veins where lay the dead
into boiling rivers and In It were
cooked the unfortunate dead. That
they did not die by fire IS evident be-
cause their clothing is not even
scorched.

RESIGNS.

The Pennsylvania Railroad company
is welding its axe right and left upon
the heads of local freight house en-
ployes upon the strength of evidence
furnished by Albert M. Shoemaker,
now serving a thirty-day sentence in
the workhouse for continuous pilfer-
ing at the depot.
Shoemaker alleged to the detectives
that he was not the only employe at
me freight house guilty Of peculation,
and he named about ten others whom
he stated practiced petty thieving Of
merchandise as well as allowing other
Irregularities to exist. Accordingly
the ten men were promptly discharged
by the company upon no other evil
dence of guilt. One of the men had
been workman at the freight house
for twenty-five years, and several
others had efficiently performed their
duties almost as long.
Owing to some dissatisfaction be-
tween Detective e. R. Walters and the
Pennsy officials arising from the clean
ing out of the depot. the former has
resigned from the service of the rail-
road company.
