But alas! a comparison of the rates

Railroad Commission.

west ol the Mississippi have been ad

reduction in the through rates to those

would have been 18 per cent.
Phis will appear plainly from the

that the people will be scared iuto be

Notices were posted on all the
morgues to-day, stating that after to
day bodies would be held only twenty
four hours for identification. If they
are not recognized at the expiration
of that time the^ are photographed.
Recognition is a difficult matter.
There is a strong movement on
foot in favor of applying the torch to
the wrecked buildings in Johnstown,
and although the suggestioe meets
with strong opposition at this time,
there is little doubt that the ultimate
solution of the existing difficulties will
be by this method. An army of men
have been for two days employed
clearing up the wreck in the city, and
although hundreds of bodies have
l>een discovered, not one-fifth of the
ground has yet been gone over. In
many places rubbish is piled thirty
feet high, and not infrequently these
great drifts cover an area of nearly
an acre. Those whose relatives or
friends still rest beneath the wreck
remonstrated strongly against ere
inatiou. They insisted that all the
talk of a threatened epidemic was
only sensational gossip, and that the
search for bodies should only be aban
doned as a last extremity. The
physicians in attendance warned the
committee that further exposure of
the putrid bodies in the valley could
have but one result—typhus, or some
other epidemic equally fatal to its
victims. It was a question whether
the living should be sacrificed to the
dead, and whether the sway of seuti-
ment or mandate of science should
he the ruling impulse. Although the
proposition to burn the wreck was
defeated, it was evident that the
movement was gaining many adher
ents, and the result, doubtless, will
be that iu a few days torches will he
jipj^d, not only to the field of waste
in .Wilistown, but also to the debris
that chokes the stream above the
Pennsylvania bridge.
Ninevah saw some woful sights to
day. Durng the period of da\ light
748 bodies were consigned to earth
from the various morgues about town.
This army of dead was placed in
trenches. Less than 100 had been
recognized by friends. None of them
were claimed for private burial,
however, as in a majority of instances
the survivors were too poor to stand
the expense. The bodies were gath
ered from up and down the river be
low Johnstown, and the commission
ers of Westmoreland county furnished
part of the ground where they sleep.
Dr. Benjamin I>ee, the Pennsylva-
a state hoard of health’s icpresenta-
re, was asked yesterday, what, iu
his opinion, were the prospects of
1 epidemic in Conemaugh .valley,
e said. “God oniy knows. No
an living can tell what will come
out of the piles ol drift and wreckage.
To day we put a portion of our corps
of sanitary inspectors iuto the thick
of the debris and in a little while the
bodies of fifty dead animals, mostly
horses, lmd been removed aud hauled
away for burial. If this per centage
is kept up there is a fearf ul amount of
decomposed animal matter to be re
moved or counteracted.*But we will
tight this thing to the end.”
A carload ot supplies was unloaded
1 the track in Johnstown to-day by
the relief committee. There was a
rush for the goods. The sfroug over
powered the weak and g »t the best.
A fight occurred. A car load of
good* from Cleveland came to-hand
to-day. It consisted of water buck
ets containing broad, butter,coffee.
To each bucket was tied a hi;
coffee pot.
A dispatch from I.ock Haven, Pa.,

Johnstown, Pa., June 7.—“Are
the horrors of the flood to give way to
the terrors of a plague?” is the ques
tion that is now agitating the valley
of Conemaugh. To day opened warm
and almost sultry, and the stench that
assails one’s senses as he wanders
through Johnstown is almost over
power. Sickness, in spite of the pre
cautions and herculean labors of the
sanitary authorities, is on the increase,
and fears of an epidemic grow with
every hour. “It is our imprearion,”
said Dr. T. S. White, assistant to the
state Kami of health, this morning,
“that there is going to be a great deal
of sickness here within the next week.
Five cases of malignant diphtheria

Speaking of grea* floods the Savan
nah News says:
*• There has been greater disasters
from broken dikes than that ol Cone
maugh, but is doubtful if modern his
tory furnithes an instance of so great
a loss of life in so short a time from
broken flam. When the dikes at
Dort, in Holland, broke in 1446, as
many as too,000 lives were lost ‘and
seventy-two villages were destroyed,
but the work of dest ruction wa
quickly accomplished as at Cone
maugh. In China, last year, when the
Yellow river left its banks, a gieat re
gion of country was inundated, and
nearly 20,000 lives were lost. All
were not lost in an hour or two, how
ever, nor in a week or two. The
deaths were distributed throughout the
entire summer. A little more than a
century ago floods in opain caused the
death of over 2,000 persons, and in
1813 a rise in the Danube drowned
2.000 Turkish soldiers. There were
memorable floods in France in 1840
and 1846. by which nearly 1.000 peo
pie lost their lives, and when the Vis
lula broke its banks m 1829, more
than 1,000 human lives were des
troyed.
In Europe and this country dams ol

that village and 140 persons; the
ch Brook reservoir, near Wor

gave way. and over froo 006,000 gal
Jons-of water were emptied inia the
valley. Only one life was lost, but
property was damaged to the extent
of pearly $r,000.000.
On March 27, 1877,the Staffordville
reservoir, on the east bank ol the Wil-
liraantic river, gave way, and a torrent
of water rushed down the valley at the
rate of five miles an hour, destroying
mill dams and railroad bridges in its
course. The people were warned by
a man on horse back, who kept ahead
of the flood, and all except ,tw$ of the
residents of the valley escaped. The
loss of property on this occasion ex
ceeded a miliion dollars.

flourishing city of Fort Royal, Jamai

and the place, with 3,000 of its peo

The earthquake of June 7th, 1733,
reached Santiago, in Guatemala, and
swallowed it up with its inhabitants.
On the same day iVI7.>> an earth
quake destroyed the city of Kascban,
in Persia, killing 40,000 human be-
ing*.
On this day also, in 1808, au ex
plosion in the Haydock coal mine, in
England, killed 180 miners.
The same fateful day in 1883
brought a water-spout to Jalisco,
Mexico. Nearly 200 persons lost
their lives, and the -destruction of
property wo* immense.
