NEW YORK (AP) - The number of people missing or dead in the Sept. 11 terrorist assault on the World Trade Center has dropped below 3,900, according to the city's official tally.The number, which once neared 7,000, has dropped steadily as police eliminate duplicate names and winnow out people who were initially reported missing but turned out to be safe and sound.Police Chief Charles Campisi, who heads the missing-persons effort, said last month that the number "is in a state of flux and it will continue to be" as detectives pore over the missing person list.The city's official count stood at 3,899 on Wednesday. Of that total, the city reported that 624 bodies have been identified; an additional 3,275 names are on its missing person list. The city has not released a list of names for those still missing.
