tBy Telegraph to The Tribune J


Chicago, July 25.-When eight
exhausted divers quit work tonight
and removed their helmets and har-
ness, 1912 bodies of victims had
teen taken from the hull of the cap
sized excursion steamer Eastland.
In the wreckage of the cabins and
between decks, and under the hull
itself, many more bodies remained.
Coroner Hoffman's latest esti.
mate is that probably $500 lost
their lives when the top-heavy boat
spilled its cargo of Western Electric
picnickers in the river. This, the
highest of half-dozen quasi-official
estimates, is based on the fact that
only about 1000 of the approxi-
mately $500 passengers are known
to have escaped.
Major NJ. L. c. Funkhouser, sec
ond deputy superintendent Of po-
lice, said he believed the death toll
would not exceed 1900. Divers who
have been exploring the hull since
few hours after the Eastland turned
over lashed to her dock west of the
Clark Street bridge agree there are
probably two hundred bodies still in
and underneath the vessel, and a
hundred more floating in the river.
To retrieve the bodies Of the rest
Of the victims a reinforced corps Of
twenty-five divers, most of whom al
ready have arrived in Chicago from
other lake ports, will go to work
early this morning. Among them
will be the original eight who worked
from Saturday morning until last
evening practically without inter-
mission.
Must Raise Hull.
According to the divers it will be
impossible to extricate many Of the
bodies until the Eastland has been
raised. The raising will take about
three days, Acting Mayor Moo
Fouse says.
1t is not a city matter" said Mr..
Moorhouse, "but something should
be done at once. We shall have tc
get the bodies from beneath the
boat. I'll learn tomorrow when the
owners, or the liability companies
that insured the Eastland, intend to
start the work"
Owing to conditions in the hull
and the exhaustion of the divers lit
tie was accomplished tonight. Fire
men and policemen, with pike poles,
continued prodding through the
apertures cut by oxygen flames in
the Eastland's dry starboard side,
but they were almost helpless with
out the divers.
Again, as on Saturday night, the
hull was ablaze with lights. The
glare of the ten searchlights on the
roof of the Reid Murdoch & Co.
warehouse across the river, the arcs
and rows of smaller lamps installed
by the Commonwealth Edison Com
pany served TO attract and hold a
crowd of many thousands of specta-
tors.
All the spectators saw, though-save
those whose business entitled them TO
pass the lines-was the glew OF the
Examinations. Five hundred police
men held back the crowd.
But there were other thousands OF
spectators who, during the day found
vantage points from which they could
survey the scene without police inter-
ference. They crowded The rear win
dows Of commission houses backing
on the river, thronged the more re-
mote bridges, rode back and forth

BERLIN SEES GRAVE DANGER

BERLIN, May (Via The Hague),
German offcialdom refuses to abandon
hope for a peaceful settlement of the
Austro-Italia crisis. No attempt, how
ever, is made to disguise the seriousness
of the situation. The chief hope is that
Italian officials who have tried to do
business with each side. will be influenced
by the Italian pledges to the Triple ALI
ance and will accept the Austrian con-
cessions which, 1t is declared, are almost
as great as Italy could hope to secure.
even though she was able to prosecute a
successful war.
The Lokal Anzeiger, in an inspired edi-
torial discussing the situation, says:
Despite the undeniable seriousness of
the situation. slight possibilities exist,
even at this late day, that we viii be
able satisfactorily to overcome the great
difficulties in the way OF a peaceful set
tlsment."
The Tageblatt says;
while there Is no new development
pointing toward improvement, II is also
true that nothing has happened which

Visers renewed their conference and It
was decided that China could do nothing

few sections of group five, were then
formally accepted. In the group five,
China made some counter-proposals,
which it is believed will be received in
an amicablo spirit by Japan.
The extreme tension which has pre-
vailed about the palace was considerably
relieved today 1t is accepted as certain
that there will be no war. If Japan in
