The Eastman Tunnel Flooded.

MINNEAPOLIS, MINI, October 6.-On
Monday morning the Eastman Tunnel,
half mile long, being excavated for
the purpose of makiRga water power
on Nicolet Island, pierced suuken wa.
ter cavern in the Island below the level
of the river. The gates at the head OF
the tunnel were closed, but the rush OF
water could not be arrested. Early on
Tuesday morning large Whirlpool neal
the shore of the Island was discovered
disclosing the mouth of the cavern. AL
efforts yesterday to close mp this hole by
RATS, cribs, trees, bales of hay, &c.
proved frultlcss, and the river is max
ing a tremendous effort to cut a ne"
channel for i,self. Tbs mills on Hen
nepin Island are in danger, as the
ground is caving in from the passage Of
the water beneath. A thousand mel
are at work night and day constructing
a Golfer dam around the mouth of the
whirlpool. IF necessary, a section Of
the dam will be blown out to lower the
water, which is very high, OF the dan
ger of new channel is imminent.

ALLEGHENY, October >.

ALLEGHENY, October D.
CATTLE-The supply o. cattle on sale
Monday was very large, aggregatlng
1900 head, against 100 the week before.
The demand was exclusively local, and
the market was rather slow and dull,
and as compared with the previous
week, somewhat lower for common and
medium grades, of which the offerings
largely consisted. Prime fat cattle
brought pretty full prices, but then
they did not sell rs freely as last week,
while the lower grades, as already init
mated, were exceedingly dull aud weak
and holders bad 10 make concessions IN
order 10 make sales. The former sold
at 71a73c, with some few extra at '3c;
while the latter were disposed OF AT
prices rauging from 4a6c, for inferior
and medium, and there were some very
good cattle sold at &c. A drove ot g"od
Texas steers were Ietailed ar IN aver
age of sc. There was an unusually
large number of Pennsylvania cattle in
the market, and Butler county was
very largely represented, though, as is
generally the case, the stock from this
county was not very good. There were
some very good cattle on sale from
Greene and Washington counties.
SHEEP AND LAMBS-The number
of sheep and lambs on sale was about
2500, against 3l00 the previous week
but the supply was fully equal to the
demand. The market, however, was
not much better, excepting for prime
fat sheep, of which there were but few
in the market, the great proportion Of
the offerings consisting mainly of medi-
am and common grades. 1t is said that
ali the best sheep are being bought up
aud shipped East. Prime fat sheep sold
1T 4ta5c per pound; lambs | 50a4 90 per
head.
HOGS-Thc market was dull and in
active, prices being above the views of
butchers. We quote at llal2c, retail
for good to extra.

Organization of the Legislature-The
Prote.t of the Radical Caucus. n

Psote.t Of the Radical Caucus. n
RIcnMoNp, October Elm the House
of REPRESENTATIVES, to day, two resolu-
lions were introduced that the iron clad
oath be now administered to the men,
bers and temporary officers of the House,
which were referred to the proper COM
mittee when it shall be appointed.
A protest adopted by the Republican
caucus last night was presented. 1t is
framed with view of answering Attor-
ney General Hears argument and pro-
tests against any acts of the Legislature
of this session, the members not having
taken the iron-clad oath and the body
being therefore illegal. 1t was referred.
The following nominations were made
for Speaker: S. Turner, nominated by
the Conservatives, received 81 votes;
8. I. Maddox, nominated by the Repub-
licans, obtained Al, aud John B. Cren-
shaw 5 votes. Turner was declare
elected.
In the discussion the point was .,ress
ed that Turner now has an apr dcatio,
before Congress for the reno cal of hi
political disabilities, and 1T was ex

New York Cattle Market.

NEW YORK, OctOber b.
The great flood, by washing away or
burying the roads, prevent our getting
supplies. No through stock trains have
arrived on either OF the roads, hence the
only animals to trade in are those
picked up near home and some left
from the former market. There were
only 400 fresh cattle to-day, mostly
collected along the Hudson railroad in
Duchess county, this side Of
the break in that road. There
were $50 State beeves in addition
all were sold at 1a3c advance, but there
was Tot enough stock for Il lively trade
Butchers held back for the detained
droves. These will probably arrive fo]
Friday and fluid quick sale.
