and nothing that will tend to prevent the outbreak of an awful pestilence Is being neglected Yester day morning It was found that large numbers of bodies whieh had been previously tin own In the bay weie washed baek on the shore and the sit uation was thus rendeied worse than before they weie taken In the barges and thrown Into the water It will now never be known how many have lost their lives Intimates run all the way from 1000 to 10000 The formal figure is given by Lieutenant Poiry n aide on General MoKibbens stall The number ol dead bodies along the shore aeeordlng to Lieutenant Perry lias been over estimated and will not reach over 1000 Ills estimate is laughed at by numtiers of men who had been In Galveston earlier They claimed that at least UfiOO bodies weie buried or carried out on brages before Lieutenant Perry arrived It will be Impossible to formulate a list of the dead from now on Mayor Jones still contends the dead will number 5000 and others whose opportunity for judging is less than that of the mayor place it at 10000 The wounded everywhere are still needing the attention of physicians and despite every effort it is feaied that a number will die because ot the sheer physical inability to lend them the nid necessary to save their lives Every man In Galveston who is able to walk ut worked li gaged m telief work with all of their energy Hut despite all this they cannot keep pace with the miserable conditions sur rounding them Water can lie ob tained by able bodied men but with great ditilculty Dr Shaw said that there was liOO people at St Marys infirmary without water They had been making coffee of salt water and using that as their only beverage Very little stealing was reported yes terday and there were no killings The number of men shot Tuesday for rob bing the dead proved a salutary lesson nnd It is not expected there will be any more occurrences of this sort Another tralnload of clothing and provisions the third in the last 21 bouts came here last night from Hous ton The steamer Charlotte arrived last evening from Houston with 10 000 loaves of bread and other provis ions The amount of food sent in so far has been large but

Washington Un reports give some valuable additional Information about the storm The wind gauge recorded a two minute blow at the rate of 100 miles an hour and was then demolished by the hur ricane which continued to increase in violence While the exact velocity of the wind was not recorded after the destruction of the instrument the ve locity was estimated at between 110 and 120 miles an hour It did not maintain this terrific rate for any length of time perhaps for halt a min ute but it was sutlieiont to wreck any thing that met the full force of the storm A journal of tho local weather bu reau contains the leport of an appar ent tidal wave of tour feet which swept in from the gulf some time be tween the hours of 7 and 8 p in It should be lemeinbered that there was a tide of about live feet and a terrible swell In the gulf during the storm and that the tidal wave of four feet rose this wall of water and Increased the force and speed of the sea that washed over the city Efforts were made today to pick up the dead bodies that have floated hack with the tide haying once been cast Into the sea This is awful work and few men aie found with sufficient nerve to last at It more than HO
