Seventy-nine bodies have been recovered, nineteen passengers on the wrecked train are missiug, and ten other persons are reported missing who are not positively known to have been on the train. One corpse is still classed as unidentified, though several persons have recognized it as Mrs. Jennie Sharpless, a well-known Woman's Temperance worker of South Bend, Ind. South Bend, Ind., Aug. 12. Mrs. Jennie Sharpless, who was supposed from description to have lost her life in the Pueblo, Colo., wreck is safe at North Cheyenne canon.
