DEATH
TOLL ISfNOW l13
Continued From Page One.)

Continued From Page One.) ~
half dozen houses contained over
300 people, many of whom have
relatives and friends buried deep
in thecanyon. The threatening
snow that hangs above the town
on one side, the roar of occasional
slides in the distance, the howl
ing of wolves and mountain lions
who have gathered to scent the.
dead, all contributed to strike ter
ror into grieving hearts.
During the might the snow,
which had piled upon the roof of
Ballots hotel, slid off with crash
that brought a hundred peopre
from the beds and cots, to the
drifts outside. They feared that
the little mountain hamlet would
be carried to destruction as were
the trains and rotaries.
Words convey but a faint idea
of the scene at Wellington this
morning. The snow is slowly ana
Isilently obliterating the harsh
traces of death. The crimson
trails leading out into the guIch
have vanished; the rescuers loom
dim and hazy; the shouts from
men directing the work come as
from afar. The real material ter
ror has given way to an uncanny
fear. The spirit of death is brood
ing over the gulch.
From Scenic the plodders are
still creeping up the mountain
side, a few carried up with the
strength, but for the most part
spurred ON by despair.
Car Contains Live Persons.
This morning there was a rum
or at Scenic that one car had been
unearthed containing ten persons
still alive.
Despite its improbability it was
accepted as true, SO eager are the
watchers to believe that all have
not persisted. The coach is stIll
buried deep somewhere in the
canyon, buried beyond the reach
or the rescuers, and those who
are in it must long since have
ceased their suffering.
Foreigners Driven Out.
All the foreigners have been
driven out of Wellington and none
but Americans are allowed to Dig
In Death Gulch.
Seyenty-five Greeks, Huns and
Poles were started down the tracx,
last night. Some one started the
rumor that they were robbing The
bodies, and the rumor grew like
the slides. 1t had no foundation.
but superintendent O'Neil told the,
men to leave. The sight Of Sol
many dead has drawn nerves tauf.
1t would take little to make men
kill in Wellington.
Among the workers. Superf1-
tendent O'Neill stands out con

he has been up and going since
tuesday morning. bearing the
burden of direction of all TIE

The dead and injured are stu

down to Scenic was considered too
dangerous before; it is doubly
dangerous now that the snow Is
falling.

CITY AND DISTRICT.
ICE DISAPPEARING.
Potomac River Partially Cleared by
the Warm Weather.

The temperature and the rain of Thurs
day night softened the ice on the river to
such a degree that much of it went
ashore before the westerly winds of yes
terday and. except for gorges between
this city and Alexandria and about Fort
Washington, navigation could have been
resumed. OF Alexandria and as far as
the eye could distinguish down the river
yesterday evening the water was open.
The gorge below this city was caused
by the big field of ice which had covered
the flats on the Virginia side of the river
from Four Mile run to Graveily creek
swinging across the lower channel and
hanging between the steel plant and Shep-
herds landing. This ice was in places six
inches thick and was piled, cake upon
cake. to depth of several feet Steam
ers and tugs had some trouble in forcing
their way through it.
The cold wave of last night made con-
siderable new ice on the river and creeks
and solicited the drifting ice so that to-
day navigation was, if anything. more
difficult than it was yesterday The river
men believe that the worst of the cold
spell is over and that it is probable that
moderate weather will prevail for several
days In this case navigation will be re-
sumed.
Unless there is very decided fall in

belonging to the fleet of the Potomac and
Chesapeake Steamboat Company, will

on the river between this city and Nomi-
nj. except a few i'm shoal water creeks
and will take away the freight that has
been accommodating for the past two
weeks. She will return to this city Mon
day evening.
The managers of the little steamer
Trenton have planned to send her out on
her route between this city and landings
in upper Machodoc creek tomorrow. She
will also return to this city Monday even
ing.
The steamers operating between this
city and Norfolk have maintained sched-
