Bodies Found Burned to an Un recognizable Mans The search Temporarily Stopped Tbe Bin Presses ot the "Timet PerhapH a Total Lost. Philadelphia, April 29. Search for the victims of the Central theatre fire be gan at 7 o'clock this morning. Upon the belief that the bodies would be found close to where the stairway 011 the right leading up from the rear of the stage was located, work was begun at that point. The rear wall of the theatre and the still higher wall of the Times build ing being threntcnly over the workmen, great caution was necessary in digging around the base of the theatre wall. After two hours and a half of slow, la' borious work, the searchers had uncov ered part of one body. A half hour's more of work brought the body com pletely into view, but it was only a charred and blackened mass of flesh and bone, so little likeness to the human being that it could not be told whether it was a man or a woman. Little more than the trunk ol the body was left. The head was gone, both arms were burned off to the elbows nnd both legs to above the knees. All of the clothing was burned away. Beneath the spot where the body laid was found some burnt nieces of cloth ing, and protruding from the pile of oricKs was an arm. A tew minutes rapid work served to show that the arm was connected with a body, and the work of uncovering it was proceeded with. This was taken to the coroner's undertaker where it was found to be that of a woman. The clothing found beneath it was identified by the wardrobe woman of the theatre as that ol Miss Flora Lorclla. As fast as bodies are removed they will be taken in charge by the coroner and when all the missing memliers of the company are found their friends will be given their bodies lor burial. Geo. S. Thatcher, who was in the aud ience who was reported as missing re turned to his home late last night. Enough of the ruins of the Times build ing have been removed to allow a par tial examination to be made of the press room. The double ceiling of the room in which so much dependence was placed in the event of just such an accident as that that has occurred were found to have been crushed in by the falling building. Two of the presses are completely cov ered by debris, and it is feared damaged beyond repair. The third press is not so much damaged and mar possibly be fit to use again. The two destroyed press es cost $42,000 each. The search for bodies storjocd at noon because of the danger that the over hanging walls might tail on the search ers. These will be taken down at once and the search resumed. Thos. Achesou,aged37 years, who was burned while making his escape from the burning theatre, died today at the Penn sylvania hospital. Achcson is the first of those severely burned to die. Although several others are in a dangerous condi tion, it is believed they will all recover. SOLDIERS PUNISHED. Afghau Troops Attacked by the Indian Populace. London, April 29. A despatch from Pcshwar, acity of India, near the Afghan frontier, states that troops of the Ameer of Afghanistan, stationed in three vil lages between Hereat and Bamian, have been treating the inhabitants ia such an outrageous manner, holding neither their property nor their women kind sacred, that the men ol tbe villages joined forces and made attacks upon me soioicry. 111c troops sustained severe defeat and nt lust reports were holding out against extinction behind the barricades. The populace is thor oughly aroused and determined to wipe out their long standing scores against the soldiery, who have treated the vil lagers far worse than an enemy would have done. The situation is threatening and rein forcements are being hurriedly despatch ed from Hereat, Candahar, nnd Cabul. JAY GOULD GETTING FAT. lit Said to WelKb Thirty Pounds More than He Did. El 1'aso, Tex., April 26.-0.uite a sen sation was caused this evening by the sudden disappearance of lay Gould's pri vate cor. It was reported that urgent business had called him back to New York, but it was learned that he had only taken a trip out over the White Uaks railroads, and would return to El Paso at 8:30 tomorrow morning. The weather has grown quite warm within the past few days and Mr. Gould's trip is merely to test the climate ol the mesa north of this city. Mr. Gould said that he felt better every day he remained here, especially since tbe setting in of warm weather, and that his visit would be prolonged indefinitely, or at least until he had fully recoved from his bronchial trouble. He has gained in strength and flesh, and weighs fully thirtv pounds more than he did when he reached El Paso. N. Y. World. THE FLA 31 EH DESTROY. A MIsslKHlppI Village Almost To tally Swept Away.

Al noon the majority of the district delegates to the republican convention were scaled nnd soon after the leaders arrived. It was twenty minutes past noon when state committee chairman Itrookfield thumped up a small flag, draped stand with his gavel. Prayer was offered by Kcv. I. N. Phelps alter which secretary Kenyon called the roll. When Herkimcn county was reached a rugged faced man arose near the front of the house, Mr. Mills, of Warner Miller's county. '-I have to state to this conven tion," he began, "that Hon. Warner Mil ler has been unable to attend here and we wish to substitute in hisplaceCharles Snyder. Mr. Miller has, however, writ ten me a letter which I ask consent of this body to have read by the secretary." There were scattered cheers at the mention of Miller's name and as Mills sat down Secretary Kenyon with his monotone voice that may be heard a distance of several city blocks, began reading the letter. It was unimportant. When thccallof the roll was completed, Itrookfield, in bchall of the state com mittce, presented to the convention the name of Wm. A. Sutherland, of Roches eer, as temporary chairman. He ad dressed the body, and when reached the words in his speech,"!' he splcndcd achieve ments of the present national govern ment," there came up to him the first extended applause that had greeted his address. Uut when a moment later the speaker referred to the "Wisdom of the brilliant Secretary of State" Ultra arose a tumult to which the applause lor Har rison seemed hut a preliminary murmur. The impulse arose and arose aeain and rigging cheers were the expression of it. At the conclusion of Southcrland's speech the usual committees were ap pointed and the convention took a recess until three o'clock. When the convention reassembled Whitelaw Keid was made permanent chairman, and delivered a lengthy speech. Mr. Keid was followed by" Dcpew, Fas sett and others. President Har, ison's administration was warmly commended. MISSOURI REPUMLICANS. A Full Stale Ticket Named Last Nlbt. Jkitkkson City, Mo., April 29.

In the house this morning the speaker called attention to the fact that at the time of adjournment yesterday the sergeant at arms had been given warrants for the arrest of absen tees. He would now ask the officer to make his report. Col. Ike Hill then proceeded to the space in front of the speaker's desk to submit his report, when he was inter rupted by Owens, of Ohio, with the point of order that alter the adjournment of thc.housc last night the sergeant at arms had no authority to bring in absentees. The speaker replied that that was not a question of order. It was a question for the house to decide; but Owens per sisted in his objection, declaring that the house had no right to issue such order. The speaker said that that question would arise when the sergeant at arms made his report Col. Hill stated that nineteen warrnnts had been put in his hands. Two members he (had failed to find, one had been sud denly called away on account of sickness in his family, four were out of town. He had notified the other twelve and they had promised to be here this morning. Thespeaker stated that the sergeant at arms had called on him last night and asked what he should do with the mem bers upon whom nineteen warrants were ssrved.
