. Latest Disaster.
What will go down in history as
the fire disaster of Washington
square entered upon its aftermath
with 82 of almost 150 victims iden
tified. The official death list has
Iwen lessened rather than increased.
Revised count shows 141 dead
with 12 women and girls at death's
door in the hospitals. One hun
dred and fifty, all told, will per
haps conservatively cover the casu
alties when those whose hurts and
burns are fatal shall have joined
their fellow workers in coflins at the
morgue.,
Careful counting still rates the
female victims, young and old, at
approximately 12 to every one
nvile. Broadly speaking, they were
Jewish and Italian, living either on
the east side or in a small Italian
quarter near the scene of the fire.
With all the dead removed from
the building, the coroner legan an
investigation into the disaster one
of several inquiries "which will be
conducted by city departments
aided by agents from the district
attorney's office. An inquest will
l)e held and its results will le placed
before the grand jury. A spark

machines, shooting through the
lint charged air of the operating
room to a four inch carpet of scraps

willing to say that, in his opinion,
the fire orginated this way.
This Cat Came Back.
In the sinking of the old battle
ship once known as the Texas, but
now called the San.. Marcos, the
intrinsic courage of a cat, and the
fortitude of a rooster were revealed
yesterday in the report of the gun
firing tests in the Chesapeake bay
filed with the navy deparment to
day.
A cat known as "Henry the
Fifth" had been loaned by John
Tate, an ordinary seaman, to test
the fate of live things on the target
battleship. ,A rooster was donated
by the sailors of Georgia.
The test shots had seemed to
tear the vituals out of the San Mar
cos, yet when Secretary Meyer
went on board the dismantled
battleship Henry the Fifth walked
quietly out from one of the turrets,
rubbed his leg and softly purred.
Crowing was heard from the up
per tower, and there was the roos
ter standing aloft on one leg. The
other leg, it has found, bad I icon
snipped off by a fragment of a
bursting shell.
The cat and rooster were taken
by order of Secretary Meyer to the
flagship. There one of the ship
surgeons bound the wound and
made a small wooden leg for the
rooster. The veteran has been
adopted by Secretary Meyer.
