Estimate by Health Board President Bereaved Mother Tries to Corn. mit Suicide. NEW YORK, June 16The estimates of the number of dead, in the Gen Slocum disaster yesterday, given by officials, vary exceedingly.

Dr Darlington, the president of the board of health, who remained at North Brother island, for a great portion of the night, gave. as his estimate, a total of 1200, with possibilities of 1250. Inspector Brooks, who was at the scene since a few minutes after the accident, placed the number at nearly 1000. After an all-night search, with the aid of professional divers, at North Brother island, 493 bodies had been recovered up to 9 o'clock today. Of this number 116 had been identified.

The number of missing is estimated In the vicinity of 400. During the day, yesterday, 203 people were taken to hospitals. After treatment, it was found, in many cases, that the injuries were not serious enough to prevent their going home, and they were allowed to depart. Some of those who remain in hospitals, however, are still in a critical condition. The center of interest, last night, was at the morgue.

All night long crowds of people visited the building with entreaties for a chance to try to make identifications.

NEW YORK, June 16At 2 this afternoon. according to the best obtainable information regarding the Gen Slocu-n disaster, about 450 persons were reported as missing. The coroner's office, the chief of the fire department and thoe police agreed in the estimate that the total loss of life will closely approximate 1000. The disaster is one of the worst among marine tragedies. As closely as cotAld be the number of bodies of Mims In the hands of the city at 2 was 522.

Of these 466 were at the morgue. 30 at North Brother island awaiting transportation to the morgue, and six were being towed in from a point between North Brother island and the Bronx shore. Police Commissioner McAdoo, believing that many bodies of those drowned are submerged in the vicinity of North Brother island, sent today a quantity of dynamite to Inspector Albertson with instructions that it be discharged at points where bodies might be likely to lodge. In this way it is hoped to bring to the surface many more bodies of the missing. After the Slocum cast off her lines the purser reported to Capt Van Schaick that 982 tickets had been taken up.

In addition to the persons holding tickets there were on board at least 400 small children for whom no tickets had been demanded. The crew numbered 23, the band 10, and the caterers assistants 15. In addition to these, it is believed there were at least 50 persons who were on board as assistants in managing the crowd, and who were unaccounted for in the list. This made the total number of souls on board the Slocum, at the time of the disaster, 1480. These figures agree with those of Acting Supt Richard, who has been receiving the police reports at Bellevue.

At the morgue there are bodies still wrapped in the rotten life preservers to which they intrusted their lies, and which proved worthless. Of all the life preservers thus far found, not one has been discovered that was serviceable. Twelve were washed up on North Brother island, and all had so rotted as to be of no use. In more than one thousand homes on the East Side there is mourning for the loved ones lost. Grief too deep for expression in mere words follow this, the greatest disaster that ever happened in New York waters.

At North Bsother island, Riker island, Hunters point and all along the shore of the river men patroled the water's edge on the lookout for bodies that are being constafitly cast up by the tide. At the morgue, along the river, at North Brother island, Riker island and all points where the bodies are being recovered the scenes today are heartrending. Men, women and children, seeking missing relatives and hoping against hope that the missing ones may have been saved, scan each new body that is brought in with tears streaming down their fares and sobs shake the men who are doing the work of rescue. From North Brother island 48 bodies were removed to the morgue. One body still remained there at 8 o'clock.

It was so badly burned that It could not be removed without a coffin. At 3 a three young men reported at the Locust hotel that they had just recovered 15 bodies, most of them women and children, in a little bay on City island, where they had been swept by the tide. These bodies were taken to the morgue. were taken to the morgue. rA119 1.7 weather bureau forecasts: For Boston and tot vicinity, fair weather tertight Friday: light west to northwest winds.

when the fire was reported. Capt Van Schaick ran her straight up the river until he was beyond 138th st before he ran her ashore. During this awful run of a mile and a half, with a roaring furnace beneath their feet. women and children in a panic of fear were wrapping themselves in the rotten life preservers with which the boat was equipped and dropping themselves into the water. But few of those who jumped overboard were rescued by the boats that followed, for the Slocum was a swift boat and was going at full speed, and before many of those in the water could be reached they had gone down for the last time.

Van Schalck'd explanation of the run to North Brother island is that he had made up his mind that there was no certain place where the boat could be beached in such shallow water south of North Brother Island. Capt Van Schaick and pilots Van Wart and Weaver are prisoners in Bellevue today. All were badly burned. Ex-Fire Marshal Fred has been retained by Dist Atty Jerome to make an investigation into the circumstances of the starting of the fire. At the morgue today double lines of visitors were admitted, and the work of identification of the dead goes on amid scenes that are beyond description.

All through the night undertakers' wagons rattled over the pavements, each bearing two or more bodies to their homes. In the district bounded by avenue 2d av, 1st and 5th sts, there are few houses In which some loved one, a relative or friend is not mourned as a result of the disaster. It will be several days before all the bodies are recovered, and some of them may possibly never be found. off Hell Gate, where the women and children began to drop off, the current is swift, and especially when the tide is running-full, as it was then. The bodies today were cast up on the shore all along the river, but there were undoubtedly many carried up the sound or down the bay, and which may not be found for weeks.

The fire boats, police patrol boats, and a number of launches engaged for the work, patroled the river all night, working searchlights over the waters, in the hunt for bodies. At 3:30 a 69 bodies were brought in by the health department tug Franklyn Edson. Among these bodies were three children and two men. The rest were women. Nearly every one of the bodies was burned in part.

At Bellevue, 50 policemen remained on duty all night, under Inspector Brooks, helping the visitors who went there to identify the dead. In the morgue, at North Brother island, Riker island and other points where the bodies were lieing collected, the work of photographing the dead went on through the night, as a means to aid in the work of Identification. of the heroes who appeared in the insane panic of the frightened women and children and the cowardly cruelty of selfish ones who trampled upon others in the fight to save their own lives when the Slocum was rushing her human freight to death, but little will be ever known. Details of daring rescues, brave fights against lire and water and heroic sacrifices are being told on every hand, and against these are the stories of rescued women and children who tell of men who with the fear of death upon them crushed children to the burning decks, thrust women aside, snatched life preservers and fought their way to safety over the lives of others. irt 1,, WHEN VARTIoG Bereaved Mother Tries to End Life.
