It wa expected that headqnartara would

be practically agreed upon before the time
Cam for hi nomination and not more than
one ballot would be necessary to nominate
him whoever he might be. . .

NEW TORK. June Is. A diver who today
renewed -tfie searcti for .victim of Ih
tteamef Oeaeral Slocum disaster, found' a
deep hole In the bed of the river practically
tiled with bcniea. Within an hour after
the searCh wal'Vegun elglit Oodles 4ad
been brought te th aurface, and when he
waa forced to abandon work for a time
because of the swift current, he stated
that between thirty and fifty bodies tlll
remained In the hole..
The diver was searching along th river
bottom and had reached a point near
the foot of the (loping lawn on North
Brother Island, wher th bodies of the
first Victim of the trsgedy were laid
kt Wednesday, when he found aeveral
bodies lying together, and at first the diver
supposed there were no more than half
S dosen Irt the pile, but upon removing
everal he found a greet hoi In th rWer
bed literally pecked with dead. He says
that not leas than thirty more bodies
Will be found when the tide again turn
and permit a resumption of work. Thl
number, he say, may be greatly ex
ceeded. One of the bodies taken from
the water today was that of a woman,
wrapped or entangled In a large American
flag.
After the lapse of three day lnc th
disaster, th molt earefully collected data
show that Ml bodies have been recovered
up to this time.
Harel to Oet Sufficient Hearses.
Based on the same data the list of
missing today was estimated at 330, while
fifty-three victim of the disaster were -In
hospitals slowly recovering from their In
juries. E'aborat arrangement had been
mad by the police for the handling of the
crowds that were expected to attend the
many funeral In th stricken district to
day. So far a could be learned plan had
been mad for thsvburlal of ill bodies from
heme In the vicinity ef St. Mark's church.
Th arrangements Include services In
thirty-seven church, of all denominations.
In that neighborhood.
Considerable difficulty had been experi
enced by th undertaker who have con
tracted for the burial of the bodies In se
curing a uflldent number of hearses and
It becam ncasary to call upon Jrsy
City, Newark, Hoboken and various places
In Westchester county In order to supply
the demand. - - 1 ;
' In accordance with the. German' custom
the people who were obliged to be. out
of doore passed through the streets In th
Stricken district with bared heads. Busl-'
n'ess was practically suspended arid' nearly'
very store wa draped 1n black. The
treet were literally filled with hearses.
Th funeral began at an early hour and
at times th street were completely block
aded and traffic of other kind' was Im
possible. Every church In the vicinity wa
filled to Us capacity. Clergymen from
all part of the greater city had left their
own congregations, and come down to the
bereaved district to do what they could
to give spiritual consolation to th afflicted.

mouldering wreck of the big excursion
steamer General Slocum had sunk off
Hunt s Point in the. Bast river,, the. full
extent of the disaster to St. Mark's Lu
theran Sunday pohool picknlckers had not
been learned. Out of . t ha nearly i;ei pleas
ure seeking women and children - who
boarded the steamer on Wednesday morn
ing, the bodies of MS have been recovered.
More than S00 othera are in the illst of
missing and the search' for them Is con
tinued along the shores and on the Islands
of the East. river, while divers regularly
relieve each other In the sunken hulk and
wherever under the water there seems a
possibility of finding any victim of th
disaster. In this search a diver today dis

ST. PETERSBURG, June 18. It trane-

berg's march southward was the dlreot
outcome of a plan agreed upon by Vice
roy Alexleff and General Kouropatkln' at
Mukden, Immediately ' after the battle of

Arthur. The authorities' apparently are
Satisfied ' with the results of Stekelberg's
mission, he having compelled the dispatch

Japanese army, commanded by General
Nosu. delaying the slese to that extent.
while at se'a the raid of the Russian squad
ron has rendered the. further transport of
troops from the Japanese mainland Im
possible. ,
The admiralty has no direct news from
the Vladivostok squadron and has .not
Intlmnted what its. further mission is.
The paper are all rejoicing at Its ex
ploits, the Novoe Vremya describing th

It I understood that ' kouropatkln sent a

TOKIO, Jun 18. The Japanese govern

Herein lie one disadvantage' nf the Japa

that, no matter 'how flagrant the viola
tions they may 'charge cf the law of na
tions, they are unable to substantiate them
without the testimony of neutral witnesses.
The Japsnese people are Intensely incensed
at the Tellssu Incident and the press bit
terly ' denounces the Russian army com
manders. While the Japanese government
desire to wage war In the most humane
way, It is Improbable ' it' can restrain Ita
men from violations In revenge for atro
cities perpetrated by the enemy. .
