Youxgstown, O., July 23. The
storm which struck this city and
vicinity at 7 o'slock last Dipht was
very disastrous Cartheny Mayer was
struck: by lightning and instantly
killed.
The Mahonona: river rose two feet
in an hour and washed away several
bridges. Crao creek, an insignificant
stream, rose lo feet in an incredibly
short space of time, doing great
damage in the lower portions of the
city. Houses were washed aay from
their foundations and men, women and
children were rescued from second'
story windows, a bathtub being used
in lieu of a better craft. Squaw creek
Park, near the city, was practically
wiped out of existence.
Trains are beginning to move after
12 hours' delay.
' The estimated loss to this city alone
approaches $100,000. The storm was
local, in manv respects resembling a
cloudburst, the people being given
little warning.
Great loss of life was narrowly
averted at Spring common foot bridge.
Men, women and children insisted on
remaining to watch the angry waters
below in spite of the fact' that the
structure was unsafe. Finally two
policemen with drawn clubs cleared
the bridge, and a few seconds later the
bridge was swept away.
Reports from the rural districts show
that farmers suffered greatly. In
Trumbull county 15 barnp were struck
by lightning and burned. Crops were
destroyed and buildings generally
damaged, but no loss of life is yet re
ported.

ALASKAN TOWNS DESERTED.
Clondyke Rash Is Fast Depopulating the
Coast Settlements.
San Francisco, July 23. Among
the arrivals from Alaska on the
steamer Bertha was Dr.. C P. Dickin
son, of Kodiak island, which lies just
at tbe head of Cook inlet. He says the
gold excitement all over ' the te-ritory
of Alaska is something unprecedented,
and, that people ..ajfl flocking to the
Cloadyke'in a way that tbreatenV'-to
depopulate many of the trading posts
andoast towns. -
"When I left Kodiak, two weeks
ago," said Dr. Dickinson, "the people
were leaving all that section and flock
ing in the direction of the Clondyke.
In a way the situation is appalling, for
many of the industries were left prac
tically without tbe means of operation.
Mines that are paying handsomely at
Cook iulet have been deserted.
"In my opinion there is just as good
placer diggings to be found at Cook
inlet as in tha Clondyke region. There
is not a foot of ground in all that
country that does not contain gold in
more or less appreciable quantities.
The great trouble has been that people
have not had either the courage or
opportunity, I do not know which, to
thoroughly prospect the country. I
think that in another month the
country will be practically deserted.
There is room, obout Cook inlet for
thousands of men, and there is
certainly no better place in the world
for tho poor man."

to have adopted measures that will
make a complete tie-up.
It has developed that many of the
West Virginia miners are waiting for
word from the Pittsburg district, es
pecially from the New York & Cleve
land mines. They want to hear of the
miners in these mines having joined
the general suspension. This, it is
claimed by officials, will bring all the
faltering ones in West Virginia into
line, thus making the strike effective
in that it will shut of? the em ply of
coal.
Arrangements hav been made for
Eugene V. Debs and other prominent
officials to come to this city and hold a
meeting for tho benefit of the New
York & Cleveland miners Thursday
morning. Among others expected to
be present are Samuel Gqmuers, A. D.
Ratchford, M. M. Garland and W. D.
Mahon. At this meeting it is inten
ded to strike the final decisive blow,
and, if possible, make the tie-up com
plete. The reputation of Debs, it. is
expected, will draw 12,000 miners to
the meeting.

New York, July 23. A dispatch to
the Herald from Rio Janerio says:
The city of Canudos has been again
captured by government troops after
being totally destroyed.by the heavy
guns of the army.
The recapture of the city was the
result of a bayonet charge on the fa
natics after practically every building
in the city had been laid low by heavy
shells. The fanatics resisted the
frightful bayonet charge foronly a few
minutes and fled in all directions,
leaving scores of dead and wounded
behind. The hand to hand fighting
was terrible for a few minutes. After
their fight from Candos the rebels
took refuge in tbe forests several miles
away where thoy will probably be
again attacked by the government
forces.

"Washington, July 24. The tariff
bill passed its last legislative stage at
3 p. m. today, when the senate, by the
decisive vote of 40 to 30, agreed to tho
conference report on the bill. The an
nouncement was greeted with en
thusiastic applause by tho crowded
chamber. This closed the great labor
for which tbe 5oth congress assembled
in extraordinary session, and after
stubborn resistance, at times threaten
ing a deadlock, the senate concurred
with the housein a resolution for the
final adjournment of the session at 9
o'clock tonight. Tbe president's mes
sage for a currency commission was
received by the house, but the house
bill creating -a commission was not
made a law. Thus the closing day was
a series of momentous events, each of
which alone would have been of ex
traordinary interest.
An analysis of tbe vote on the tariff
conference report shows that the affirm
ative vote was cast by 37 republicans,
one democrat (McEnery), one silver re
publican (Jones, of Nevada), and one
populist (Stewart).
Ihe negative vote was cast by 28
democrats and two populists (Harris
and Turner), Teller, silver republican,
and two populists (Allen and Butler)
did not vote. One populist (Kyle) and
one silver republican (Pettigrew) were
absent without pairs, which was equiv
alent to withholding their votes.
The last step necessary to make the
bill a law was enacted at the White
Hduss at 4:30 when the president
affixed his signature. At 9 o'clock
both houses adjourned, and the extra
ordinary session of congress closed.
CLONDYKE OUTRIVALED.
Fabulous .Richness of South American
Gold Fields.
San Francisco, July U4. Recent
advices from Peru, which have been
confirmed by C. de Miranda, a petro
leum magnate now in this city, state
thai the wonderfully rich strikes re
ported from the Clondyke region have
been totally eclipsed by fabulous dis
coveries of gold in the South Ameri
can ropublic. In an Interview today
Mr. Miranda said that there no longer
seemed to be any doubt that the
famous Inoa gold Uelds, which have
been considered as myths among the
intelligent people of Peril, haye at last
been discovered. The location of tbe
newly discovered bonanza is in the
departments ot Suzco and Puna, in tbe
eastern border of tbe country, which
have long been famous for their rich
ness in precious metals. Among the
successful prospectors in the new fields
is a Californian named Hardison, who
left San Francisco two years ago in
search of petroleum and penetrated
into the interior. In June last be took
out of Ode of his many claims 279
pounds of gold, and many English
men are reported to have been equally
lucky.
The Fever Hares.
Port Townsend, Wash , July 26.
The steamer City of Topeka arrived
last night from Alaska. She brings
news that the Clondyke fever is on the
increase at Juneau. Nearly every
able-bodied man there has gone or is
preparing to go to tne Hen nelds.
A'lthentic'reports direct from Dyae
are that there is now as much freight
piled up at the head of the inlet as the
Indians can ptck over the divide in
the next 18 months. This amount of
freight will be more than doubled
when the steamers Queen and Mexico,
now en route, arrive. This condition
of affairs practically precludes all pos
sibility of hundreds of the rushers
reaching the mining region this year.
Frank F. Myers, the Juneau pioneer
newspaper man. will leave tnere in two
weeks for Dawson City, by a different
route than by Dyea and over tbe divide.
He will go by the route followed by
Lieutenant Schwatka, who conducted
an exploring party into tne xuicon
valley in 1689. This route starts from
Taku inlet, 30 miles south of Juneau.
From Taku to Lake Teslin the dis
tance is 130 miles, over level prairies,
and the country from Lake Teslin is
open talh-y through to the Yukon
river by way ol the Uootlngua river.
With the aid of pack horses the Taku
route is by far the more preferable. It
is probable that a stage line will soon
be operated on this route. Parties
who have oeeu over both routes say
the walk of 130 miles over level country
is more easily accomplished than that
of 15 miles over Cbilcat summit.
General Strike Called.
Columbus, O., July 24. Fred Bll-
cher, of the national executive board,
wires Thurmond, W. Va., to national
headquarters, that at a mass meeting
at Somonell, last night, the miners
adopted a resolution calling for a gen
eral strike July 26. They as for a
50-cent rate per ton, and no settlement

this city have gone to Seattle. There
they will be joined by a party and will

No Hope for Mrs. Maybrlck.
Washington, July 26. The British
government has again declined to in
terfere in the execution of tbe sentence
of Mrs. Florence Maybrick on the
ground that there is no reason for a
change of judgment in the matter.
The last Sort to secure at least amel
ioration in the conditions of her con
finement was made by Ambassador
Hay, who had some correspondence on
the subject with tho foreign office,
which he has transmitted to the state

A 8hrewd Portland Business Man
Ex-
presses his Opinion Freely.
Hon. D. Salis Cohen, one of Port
land's shrewdest and broadest minded
business men, recently returned from
an extended trip in the Eastern states,
and in an interview with a Telegram
reporter said:
"The great problem now to be solved
is the disaster arising from the cen
tralization of trade in th6 large cities
which is sapping the ambition of the
young business men there.
"Monopolies and trusts are now
making money faster than ever," says
h, "while those outside of their pales
can hardly make ends meet. Buttbere
is any quantity of money tons of it
seeking safe investment, which can
not be found anywhere."
"What is your estimate of safe in
vestment, according to the idea of the
Eastern capitalist?" was asked of Mr.
Cohen,
"Where they can get three dollars'
gilt-edged security for one."
"Don't you think that the operation
of a protective tariff law will change
conditions?"
"Not the slightest," emphatically
and decisively answered Mr. Cohen.
"The tariff is not the potent factor in
the restoration of a prosperous state of
affairs as we were always led to be
lieve. I have discussed the tariff with
quite a number of prominent and in
telligent republican manufacturers
and importers, aad they are unanimous
in the opinion that no kind of tariff
will cut a figure in decimating the ex
isting distress of the country. Some
even go to the extreme of throwing
the ports wide open to free, trade, as a
matter of experiment.
"The only thing- that strikes me as a
means of taking a number of thousands
of hands out of the field of idleness is
the bareness of the country of manu
factured goods. Factories will soon
open to supply the demand, and when
tbe market becomes glutted they will
shut down again. It seems to me that
any remedy offered so far is but a
temporary one.
"The Eastern labor muddle is anoth
er subject sot easily - grasped by one
not on the scene. It is a menacing
national octopus, invading some of the
soundest intelligence in the country,
and seeking nothing more than a fair
chance to subsist,
"One Sunday afternoon I attended
one of those monster labor meetings,
remaining there from 2 to 8:30 o'clock
in the evening. I listened to men
whose utteranoes were plethorio with
wise suggestions such as one does not
hear from the politioal rostrum, and
which I felt were spoken for no pur
pose of demagoglsm.
"Thousands upon thousands of the
most distressed men and women list
ened to them, and while tho speakers
had no intention to cat a firebrand
into their midst, I dread to contem
plate tbe ultimate result. I am certain
that we are on tbe eye of a social rev
olution unknown to modern history,
and which no legislation can thwart
In truth, I fear that we have reached
a crisis in the gigantic magnitude of
the distress of our people that no legis
lation can well neutralize."

by Great Sachem J. K. Car at 10 o'clock
this morning.
The following chiefs occupied pos
itions in the council; Otto Schuman,
great senior sagamore; E. J. Ladd,
great junior sagamore pro tern
(occupying the position for John Mich-,
ell who was prevented from attending
the morning session on account of
business in court;) H. H. Newland,
great prophet; F. H. Taylor, great
chief of records; E. J. Hylard, great
keeper of wampum; R. G. Paddock,
great guard of wigwam; W. H. Butts,
great guard of forest.
The delegates from the different
tribes of the great reservation of Ore
gon are:
Winnehaha, No. 2 E. J. Ladd, John
Annand, L. Carstensen.
Winona, No. 4 J. Fred Kennedy, T.
J. Lynch.

Finance S. Danielewloz, J. J.
Englehardt, G. W. Ham.
Laws and Usages E. J. Ladd, C. J.
Thompson, T. J. Lynch.
The only past great sachem, not a .
delegate, attending the council is J.
V. Lankin.
After the preliminary proceedings
necessary to . organization were dis
posed of, the reports of offlcera were
read and referred to the committee on
distribution. The reports show a
slight decrease in the membership
throughout tbe great reservation,
though in the past great sun one new
tribe has been instituted.
Throughout the United States, bow
ever, the past year has been a prosper
ous one for the order, as the report of .
the great representative shows that
the increase in tbe order baa been the
greatest' during any year of the hU- -tory
of the order, and generally the"
organization Is in a more prosperous
condition than ever before, there hav
ing been a marked increase both In
tbe number of tribes and in member
ship throughout the United States. '
Tbe report shows that during the past
great sun the handsome sum of 1328,
000 was distributed as relief among
tbe members, a fact which shows that
the principles of the order, to care for
the afflicted and furnish relief for those
in need, are being practiced through- '
out the land.
The prinipal matter of importance
to be considered by this session of the
great council is that of adopting an
insurance or endowment feature In
connection with nhe order. It is pro
posed to establish a beneficial
plan with a graded assessment pro
tooted by an adequate reserve fund. Is- .
suing policies in amounts from 11,000,
to (3,000 to members of the order. Tbe
proposition is comparatively a new
one in the order of Red Men, but it
meets the approval of many, and will
likely be adopted.
Bartmess Will be Allowed an Appeal.
