committees from .arious points along tho

As a result of this conference It was de

laborers to tho number of 2,000 should bo
made to conduct tho sanitary work while
the people of Galveston were given nn op
portunlty of looking uftcr their own losses
and rebuilding their own property without
giving nny time to tho city at Inrge. It is
believed that with the work of theie 2.000
outside laborers It will require about four
weeks to clean tho city of debris nnd in tho

HOUSTON, Tex., Sept. H. The Post to
day prints a list of 2,701 names of the Oal
uston dmd, compiled from various suircis,
but believed to be authentic. There were
hundreds Of bodies burned, burled nt sa
nnd In the sand, ot which no Identlllcntton
was possible. There were other hundreds
who were burled on the beach of the main
land, few of whom have been Identified.
There aro many bodies still In the ruins of
Galveston and scattered nlong the bench of
tho mainland nnd In the marshes, where
tl cy wcro thrown by tnc water. Some of
thrso bodies have been sent twonty miles
Inland nlong small watercourses by the
rush of high waters. Taking nil things Into
ccnsldcratlou, thore Beems no longer nny
doubt thnt the number of dead will reach
beyond the estimates ot 5,000 which has
been made by Mayor Jones, Major P. G.
Lowe und other reliable citizens of Oalves
ton. About 1,300 refugees arrived hero from
Oalveston last night nnd nro being cured
for ns well as possible. Four buildings
have been set apart for the benefit of ref
ugees, but of the 3,500 who have reached
hero so far not more than son remain in the
public ehnrge, the remainder of them hav
ing gone to the homes of relatives and
friends. The owner of the Btcntncr Law
rence hns ordered the boat turned over to
Adjutant Slurry, who l.i In charge at Oal
veston, nnd the transportation of people
from Oalveston to the Interior will proceed
faster. There have been delays in the
transportation of provisions because of a
lack of boats, but there are more boat now
and the work will be faster und more com
plete. Agents of several of the Insurance com
panies are passing through' to Oalveston.
They say there Is certain to be murh con
fusion, but they do not know whnt action
will be taken by the companies concerning
the payment of claims without proof ot
death, which, in many cases, will be Im
possible!. Contributions of money continue
to come In, ns do supplies of all sorts.
IIOI STON. Tex , Sept. 14. There arc
really few prominent names in the list of
dend from Oalveston. Most of them arc
people who wcie not well known outsldo
their own circle of acquaintances. Tho
class of people who aro dead were working
people, small tradesmen nnd small prnfeii
Blonal men nnd their families. The reason
for this Is plain. Inasmuch ns the greatest
force of the hurricane was exerted against
the east end. west end und the water from,
while In the center of the oily, where the
people of greater prominence lived, there
was not so much less of life.

When In South Omaha a few days ago
Congressman Men cr called nt the postoflVe

to Postmaster, Etter that he would Immedi
ntely communicate with the postal depart

three additional carriers be added to the
present force. Congressman Mercer sen
his recommendation on immediately and the
te.Milt was it visit yesterday from AsMitatit
i Superintendent Ends of the ftee delivery
) system, whose headquarters ate at Wash-
lugton.
I In company with Postmaster Etter Super
intendent Kails looked over the ground thor
oughly and before leaving virtually acknowl
edged that additional help was needed In
this growing nnd prosperous city Post
muster Etter snys that If the department
will give him three additional men he will
extend the free delivery system to every
portion of South Omaha.
Of the additional help promised there will
be one collector with n wagon, one mounted
mall carrier end one foot carrier. When
these men nre appointed the entire city
will he redlstrlcted und nrrnngemetits per
fected for the delivery of mall In portions
of the city not rovcred by the present for-'e.
The collector will pay particular nttontlon
to collecting mall from the packing houses,
stork ynrds nnd tho boxes In the buslnrns
portion of the city. As for the mounted
carrier, he will bo sent to the northeastern
part of the city and the district east of
Thirteenth street which Is now without a
free delivery system.
The extra foot carrier will be worked In
the residence portion of the city and, with
his assistance, the present foot routes will
be shortened to some extent and belter
service given In the districts where only two
deliveries ure made dally.
Postmaster rfftcr Is coiilldent that the ap
pointment of these three men will be made
shortly nnd he says that the credit belongs
tn Congressman Meteor, who has taken a
special Interest In the South Omaha .ost
ofllre and Its equipment.

Very few (axes nre being paid Into the
