SECRETARY WINDOW
On Transportation and the Times.


CHICAGO, June IL. Secretary Window
was introduced at the Change at noon in
company with Mayor Harrison and other
prominent citizens, and received with every
manifestation of friendship and enthusiasm
He made short address, in the course of
which he reverted to the magnificent and I'M
parallelled developemement of agricultural
industry in this country. He gave some
facts as to the growth of the surrounding
section, and strongly endorsed the scheme
now under way of connecting the Mississippi
river and the great lakes by the means of the
Hennepen canal. He referred to his efforts
in Congress in behalf of the improvement of
water ways As means of cheapening trans
portation, and thereby regulating rail rates.
which sometimes become exhorbant He
assured the grain men of the Northwest of
his hearty sympathy and support of any
plans of this kind to cheaper rates to the
seaboard Of farm products. He mentioned
the well known facts of the success of the
refunding operation, and said the good times
which are now upon US seem to have come to
stay. 1t was, however, BY no means sure
that such is the case. We shall be informed
of their departure, and the signs will be a
growing extravaganza, reckless living, spec
ulation and spendthrift habits, and throwing
the balance of trade from our shores so that
we shall send away our riches instead of in
creasing them. Mr.. Window leaves for
tomorrow.

tity of hale fell during the storm.
Southwest Missouri was visited by the
same storm that ravaged part of Kansas,
Thursday night. The wind was not severe,
but an immense amount of hail fell over a
large area of the country, and did great dam
age to crops and window glass.
A water spout broke in Little Valley. in
Barry Co., in which is the town of Seyen Star
Spring, and before the people could reach
the surrounding hills, torrent rushed town,
taking with it houses, tents, household

"That Man from Maine."
From the New York Tribune.


1t is a well known fact that all the present
trouble in the Republican party-trouble that
threatens to deprive the United States Senate
of the luminous presence of Mr.. Roscoe
Conkling, and perhaps extinguish the sun of
liberty forever-is occasioned by ''that man
from Maine. Who induced the New York
and Pennsylvania delegates to Chicago to
disobey the resolutions of their State Con-
ventions in obedience to the mandates of their
constituents THAT man from Maine"
Who defeated Mr.. Conkling's cherished
thrd-term scheme THAT man from Maine. "
Who put himself into the Cabinet THAT
man from Maine" Who nominated Robertson
for Collector ''That man from Maine"
Who induced the Senate to confirm the
nPination? THAT man from Maine" Who
dfove Mr.. Conkling out ofthe Senate THAT
man from Maine" Who made him whistle
ME Too" after him? ''That man from
Maine" Who persuaded the Republican
members of the Legislature to refuse a
caucus? THAT man from Maine" Who
intimidated and browbeat a majority of the
Republicans in the Legislature into voting
against Conkling and Me Too? THAT maj,
from Maine" And who owns something like
200 newspapers in the State of New York.
and about 1000 in the United Staes. writing
editorials against Conkling for every issue.
and influencing in the same direction pretty
much the whole press of the country? Who

FLOOD IN OHIO.
Great Destruction of Property in
Steubenville.


LDss Estimated at 4l.OO9, 900.
SrEuBExvILLE, O., June II. Never in
the history of the Ohio, since 1910. has there
ccurred such flood in the month of June
as the present one. Almost six days of con-
slant rain throughout this section extending
TO the headwaters of the Allegheny and Mon
ocahela river brought flood that carried
with it destruction on every hand, from Pitts
burg TO Wheeling, distance of 10 miles
The river, at this point, commenced to rise
Thursday evening and from three foot
river increasing waters forced their way up
ward until passing over the high banks and
completely submerging the riverside park
the waters entered the first stories OF all the
business houses and residences on water
street and continued to rise until ii O'Clock
Yesterday morning when the river remained
stationary for about three hours, after which
it began to fall very slowly. The Cleveland
4 Pittsburg railroad in this city was sub
merged for about two miles: the water was
up to the passenger depot while the freight
depot was completely surrounded. All BUSH
ness on the road was suspended to-day with
the exception of a few trains. North of the
CITY for miles the track is under water. Great
suffering has been caused in the sixth ward,
the entire ward being under water; 500 peo-
ple have been compelled to leave their homes.
The loss to property and destruction of crops
in the valley will reach Sl.000,000. One
farmer near this city had 200 head of sheep
devoured and his entire crop of wheat and
corn submerged Hundreds of acres Of val
liable land, mostly wheat, above and below
the city is from two to five feet under water.
All works were stopped to-day, partly owing
to the waterworks being completely surround
ed BY water. Navigation is suspended and
no boat has dared to venture out. Browns
Island, a great summer resort, SIN miles above
the city, containing nearly POO acres. is al
most entirely submerged and greatly dam
aged. This is one of our most beautiful
islands in Ohio. During the entire day the
surface of the river has been covered with all
kinds of debris-parts of houses, RATS. fen
ces and barges. The village of Warren, 10
mile below this city, a town of 500 inhabitants,
is completely submerged, and the people have
been driven from their homes. No lives have
been lost as far as can be learned tonight.

FROM QUEBEC.
Active Preparations to Rebuild st,

COmmendable Action Of the Relief Com
mittee.

COmmendable Action Of the Relief Com.
mittee.
QUEBEC, Sune II. Now that the smoke
from the smouldering ruins is somewhat
subsidized. a more vivid idea can be formed of
the utter destruction and desolaton of the
burnt district. Nothing but whole acres of
standing chimneys and bare walls meet the
eye. Some idea of the intense heat genera
ted by the mass of seething fire, can be form
ed from the burnt appearance of stones in the
standing walls. In the process of rebuilding,
very few, if any, of these standing walls can
be utilized.
Artists and photographers are busy on the
scene of the ruins making sketches and TAX
ing photographs. The full list of the parties
burned out shows that some 600 are sufferers
to the extent of about a thousand dollars
each, including all clases of small traders,
workingmen, clerks, working women and lab
orers.
At meeting of the relief committee, col
lectOrs were appointed for the different parts
of the city. Donations from individuals and
Canadian towns are coming in. Expressions
of sympathy are received from every direc-
ton. The meeting decided that immediate
assistance will be rendered to all in actual
necessity.
Charles Maria's list of the victims
of the fire was printed to-day. In
quest to be resumed Monday. The street
railroad has been completed and the cars are
again running. There are a large numbers of
dangerous walls and chimneys throughout
the burnt district which require immediate
attention. Already plenty of signals in the
burnt district, and numbers of people are
preparing to rebuild. St. Johns church is
to be Immediately rebuilt up on the present
site. Rev. Father Planondon, and his Wears
have taken up their residence at Bonpasteur,
in the chapel of which they will celebrate
masses Tomorrow
