The wort of clearing the streets of King ston of debris and recovering a. the corpses of the victims of the earth quake and conflagration Is proceeding rapidly, , , "The southwestern portion of King ston looks exactly as did Bt.

Sweotenham and offered assistance in the shape of armed guards to pro ject the banks and public buildings ana to sena asnore rescue parties to aid in recovering the dead. The lat ter offer was accepted with thanks and a party of marines were landed Thursday afternoon and are still working like Trojans performing a service that will forever be remem bered I nthis Island. The former of fer was declined, as the local troops, militia and constabulary were deem ed sufficient to preserve order and protect all buildings that needed pro tection. (Other dispatches from Kingston declare that American marines had been landed and were protecting the city. On the whole the conduct of the populace has been admirable, There have been only a few attempts at looting and these have been confined to rum shops and provision stores. The guards have not had occasion to lire a single shot. Perfect order reigns throughout the devastated city. An admirable example has been set the lower classes by the Governor and Lady Swettenham and the higher officials and their wives who are Working unwearily to relieve the dis tressed and nurse the wounded. Amer ican naval doctor palso are doing magnificent work In assisting the lo- cal doctors. The original estimates of killed were too moderate. Over BOO victims have been burled up to to-day and Xftres of half-burned bodies have been taken from the ruins of collapsed buildings and cremated at the cross ings of thoroughfares with the view of avoiding the outbreak of an epi demic.
