Malvem was a oity ol about 6,000 in habitants, the business portion of the place being olustered around tbe rail road station. All this seotion was de Btoryed, only three business-houses re maining. The total loss is variously estimated at from $200,000 to $400, 000, only a small portion of whioh is covered by insurance. The burned buildings inoluded the railroad depot, two hotels and the bank. The fire was without doubt the result of a plot to destroy the town. The blaze broke out about midnight, in three different places, and as there was no apparatus, the fire burned itself out , WORK AT THE LOCKS. As Boon as the Water Goes Down, Oper ations Will Commence. The Dalles, Or., July 21. The $200,000 appropriated in the last river and harbor bill for completing the canal and locks at the cascades of the Columbia river are now available, and Mr. MoDonald, superintendent of stonecutters under Day Bros., informed a Dalles man who was visiting at the Looks a few days since, that work would be resumed on the canal, be thought, about August 1, or as soon as the water bad receded sufficiently so that the canal between tbe upper guard gate and the lock gate can be drained of water. The engineers have determined to construct walls of solid masonry be tween tbe upper guard and lock gates, and it is estimated that these walls can be completed in two or three months. Tbe construction of these walls will be under tbe supervision of Day Bros. , on the basis of their former contract for similar work. A force of from fifty to sixty men will be put on the stone work within two weeks, and tbe building of tbe walls will be pushed to completion.

HALF A MILLION DOLLARS LOSS Five Men Struck by Lightening Near Leadvllle -Destructive Cloud burst at Cheyeune. Pittsburg, July 17. A heavy storm tonight, which was practically a oloud burst, did great damage throughout this city and Allegheny. Estimates made from reports coming in from oat lying portions indicate a loss of nearly $500,000. All street car lines have been stopped. A part of Allegheny cemetery was washed away. Tons ot earth and stone have been washed onto the Fifth-Avenue and Duquesne Trac tion Company's line at Sobo. Tbe sewers in Buother run and- Woods run, in Allegheny, are reported as hav ing given way, flooding those sections. No loss of life as yet has been re ported. At Forty-eighth street, Lawrenoe ville, probably the most destruction was worught Every house on the north side of Butler street from Forty eighth street east was flooded, many being entirely ruined. The immediate oause of tbe tronble at this point was tbe giving way of the Allegheny ceme tery stone wall, wbioh abuts the Btreet. When tbe wall gave way the flood rushed down to the houBes below, filling tbem to a depth of four foet on the first floor. Tbe loss at this point will be many thousands of dollars.

During a terrible thunder storm in the mountains west of the oity, today, five men were struok by lightning, and all are now in the hospital here, three probably fatally injured. The men composed a section crew on the Colorado Midland railroad, and were working near Tbom asville, thirty miles from Leadville. Heavy rain drove them to shelter, whioh two of them found nnder a large rook near the track, the other three getting nnder a giant pine. Soon there oame a blinding flash, and the great tree was riven to splinters. ' The three under it were strioken as with death, while the two under tbe rook near b were shocked and stunned, but Boon recov ered consciousness, and were able to summon assistance. They found three blaokened trunks, from whioh all oloth ing had been torn, but there were signs of life. . VARIETY ACTRESS' SUICIDE. Discouraged Because She Had No Money to Send Her Children. Spokane, July 17. Grace Wilton, a variety aotress, playing at the Com ique theater, was found dead in ber room today. She had oommitted aui oide by swallowing an ounce of car bolio acid. She is said to have been the daughter of a well-known business man in San Francisco. For several years she was a dramatio aotress play ing in San Francisco, under tbe name uf Jeanette Rivers. About two years ago she drifted into the vaudeville busi ness. Letters found in ber trunk indicate tbat Miss Wilton had two daughters living in San Francisco Blanohe and Maude, aged 12 and 8 years respective lv who were attending school there. Two letters, dated June 19, from these children to their mother, were couched in the most endearing terms. Tbey prayed that she might Boon return borne. A letter addresssed to Miss Wil ton, wbioh arrived this morning, was opened by Judge Hinkle, who found it to be from ber sister, Annie, in San Francisco. It is a request for money to pay a $45 board bill against tbe two children. Tbe writer adds that if it is not forthcoming at once, tbey will have to move out onto the street The writer further expresses surprise tbat the de ceased bad not written a word nor sent them a cent since coming to Spokane. It is thought that poverty caused ber to bave a sodden impulse to end it all in aeatb. Twenty-five cents was all the money found on her person. Tillman's Daughter Killed. Columbia, S. a, July 17. It is re ported that Miss Addie Tillman, the eldest daughter of Senator Tillman, was killed by lightning on a mountain near Vrevard, late this afternoon. Tbe Oregon la Commission.

CAPTAIN TAYLOR'S REPORT Cn River and n arbor Work In the Pa cific Northwest. Washington, July 20. The report of Captuin Harry Taylor, of the engineer oorps, who has oharge of the river and harbor work in the Northwest, has been made to the secretary ot war. The work on Willapa river and har bor, in Washington, has been com pleted and twenty-one feet of water sc oured, but some shoals need to be dredged yet No further appropriations will be be required. For the improvement of Grays harbor and bar, a plan for a jetty SJ4 miles to the sea on the south side of the harbor, to seoure a low-water depth of 24 feet, has been decided upon, and contracts will be let for the work. It 1b recom mended tbat the full amount permitted by law $400,000 be appropriated for tbe next fisoal year. In Gray's harbor and Chehalis river, to carry the dredging to a depth of six teen feet will largely exceed tbe esti mate of oost The extei sion of the Northern Paolfio railway to the lower-harbor towns is said to have lessened tbe impor tance of the river as a highway, so that no coasting vessels have navigated it above Cosmopolis since 1892, and it is recommended that the plan for dredg ing a channel through tho shoals to give coasting vessels aocess to Monte sano be reoonsidered. The importance of greater facilities for keepng the rivers flowing into Puget sound free from obstruction is urged. In connecting Puget sound with Lakes Union and Washington, the Smith's cove route is favored, and the engineer urges tbat preliminary work be done before right of way is secured, and says that $500,000 can be profitably expended during tbe year. The earnestness of the people of Everett for pushing tbe work ot their harbor is oommended, and $15,000 is recommended to be expended during tbe fiscal year ending June 80, 1898. The opening of Swinomish slough at tbe earliest possilbe date is urged. It is reported that tbe expense of car rying out tbe projeot for removing boulders, eto., from the Upper Colum bia and Snake rivers is bo great that it should not be begun with tbe present appropriation. A POPULIST PLATFORM. Drawn up In California for the St. Louis Convention. San Franoisoo, July 20. F. M. Wardell, obairman of the Populist Btate oentral committee of California, and J.

Eaoh dollar shall be interchangeable with, but not redeemable in the other, and shall be denominated respectively gold, silver or paper money all' na tional debts being payable in either, at the option of the government "As the United 8tates is a free and powerful nation and the finanoial and industrial liberty of its citizens should be independent of the aotlon ot any other government, we demand the free and unlimited ooinage of gold and sil ver by the United States at the present ratio of 16 to 1, without referenoe to tbe oourse of any foreign nation. "We demand that all national banks be abolished, and in lien of them that tbe government establish a postal bank in eaoh oity, town and village of the United States containing a population of 1,000 or more." The platform also declares for the reoognition of Cnba and against tbe re funding of tbe Pacific, railroad debts. A Woman's Terrible Deed. Butte, July 20.
