THE 3I0RXIXG OREGOXIAX. SATURDAY, MARCH 7, 1908. DAY OF FUNERALS AT GOLUNH ID Grief-Stricken Village Buries Its Dead and Mangled Children. UNGER HUSHED BY SORROW Those Wlio Curse Janitor Silenced at Sight of Bowed Head In quest Shows Crush Made Help Unavailing. CLEVELAND. O., March 6. Funeral prores-slons today bPiran to wend tlieir way toward the cemeteries, bearing: the battered and charred bodies of some of the. 167 children who perished in Wednes dny morning's fire in the lakevlow school. Colltnwood. From 9 o"c!ock in the morn ing until dark there was no cessation in the funeral corteges. Those who had no iead to mourn as a personal loss stood by in the streets with bare heads as the grim procession passed. Grief Stills Anger. One of the saddest funerals was that of the three children of Mr. Ilirter, the janitor, held Jointly with the services for three other little ones. Mutterlngs againsi the janitor could be heard about the vil lage as grief-crazed parents sought an obiect upon which to wreak vengeance, forgetting that Mr. Hlrter himself was walking with bowed head and broken heart behind the bodies of three of hi: beloved. A detail of police was placed about the Hlrter home when the hour for the funeral came. Fully persons had gathered, but when the coffins were car ried to the doorway the crowd spread and opened the way for them without protest or expression of hostility. Altogether there were 60 burials today, t. and tomorrow the grewsome task will be repeated. Sunday will witness the last of the Individual burials and on Monday the bodies of all those who are unidenti fled will be laid to rest with one funeral, Tonight 28 of these bundles of flesh await claiments. Could Xot Have Been Saved. Testimony describing the mad rush to death of the school children was given todfty at the continued session of the Coroner's inquest. Stories of heroism on the part of the women teachers were re cited. F. P. Whitney, superintendent of the Colllnwood schools, stated his belief that no Fire Department could have done any effective work after the Are had started. Two of the teachers told of their unavailing attempts to open one of the double doors at the rear, which they said was locked. The inquest also de veloped the fact that after the first crush at the door it was beyond human pos sibillty to aid those whom the fire was devouring. The inquest will be resumed Monday. In a statement today Chief Wallace of the Cleveland Fire Department, after an examination of the ruins of the Collln wood school, said it was his opinion that the loss of life would not have been so rreat had there been no partitions at the sides of the storm doors at the rear entrance. Two feet, eight Inches had been taken off either side, of the "hall for the partitions. His examination developed that the doors opened outward. With the appropriation of J25.000 today by the Ohio Legislature and the funds subscribed locally, there will be plenty of financial relief for the stricken families which are unable to bear the expense of the funerals. Identified by Her Teeth. The body of Miss Katherine Wheeler. one of the two teachers 'Wiio lost their lives was positively identified by a dentist, The body is so terribly burned that It can liardly bo' distinguished from the bodies of the smaller girls. The identification was established by her gold-filled teeth upon description furnished by a Pitts burg dentist. The body of Rosetta Machnich, i former pupil in the school, was Monti lied by her shoes. When Mrs. Mach nieh was positive of the identification, she fell fainting upon the charred body of her little one. J.EAVK SCHOOL WITHOUT PAXIC Singing "America," 2000 Xew.York Children Reach Safety. NEW YORK, March 6. A special call was sent into Fire Headquarters from the public school on One Hundred and Ninth street, between Amsterdam avenue and Hroadway. The children were marched from the school without panic or disorder. They were assembled in the yard and sent home. Parents who rushed to the build ing were prevented by the police from closing in the exftti and sent away. The fire was on the top floor of the building, which is five stories high. The axX) pupils in the building were en gaged in their morning singing exercise when the fire gong rang and they con tinued to sing "America" as they marched out of the building. There was no sign of panic at any time. An examination showed that there were two distinct fires one In a locker and another in a desk. The fire marshal is investigating on the possibility that the fires may have been started by an incen diary. He says, however, that It Is pos sible that they may have been caused by spontaneous -combustion. Xo Panic in Michigan School. ST. JOHN'S. Mich.. March 6.

' 'And now. said he, getting down to the real reason for calling me to his of tine, "Colonel, we are going to elect WU iam Jennings Bryan President, and, he added. "Colonel, J. J.
