Omaha, March 29.-The water hav-
ing subsided in the Platte valley, the
work of repairing the Union Pacific is
being pushed with great vigor. and by
Saturday next the damage will be re-
paired sufficiently to admit of running
through trains again. Meantime the
Union Pacific trains will be run with
little or no delay over the Burlington q
Missouri road to Kearney, which road
is again in condition to receive and
handle these trains, and no further
trouble is feared. Three delayed Union
Pacific trains arrived here this evening.
Through freight will tomorrow be for
warded over the Burlington & Mis-
souri, The damages to the main lines
of road will first be repaired, and then
will follow the big job of work on the
branches.
Over so per cent. of the bridges
have been washed away in Nebraska by
freshets, and numerous grist mills have
been destroyed. Cattle, sheep, hogs,
etc., have been drowned in large num-
bers in the Platte valley. AS far as can
be learned, no persons were drowned,
except one woman and two children
west of Schuyler. Near by them was
found the box of an emigrant wagon,
and it is supposed that they were part
of an emigrant party, the rest of whom
were also probably drowned.
The ice went out of the Elkhorn
river this afternoon without doing any
damage except knocking the Union
Pacific bridge ten inches out of line,
but 1t can easily be repaired.
Omaha: 1t is impossible as yet to pro-
cure more than meagre facts Of the
condition of the towns in the Platte
valley, owing to the fact that the tele-
graph lines are only partially rebuilt.
Three lives are known to have been
lost, but it is believed that number
more have perished. The loss of stock
and property counts up in the hundreds
of thousands. 1t is intended now to
run the Union Pacific trains through
direct by Friday.

Fort Pierre, March, 29.-The ice
broke in the Missouri river at midnight
Sunday, overlooking this point to the
depth ofkfve feet, driving the inhab-
itants to the bluffs; since it has receded
greatly. The steamer Weston sunk at
the levee at Yankton. The steamer
Meade is floating down the stream with
the ice,
The loss by the flood at Pierre is only
5000. At Fort Pierre, opposite, but
two or three habitable houses are left,
and the loss is fully $4,000. There is
no loss of life at either place. 1t is
thought that the officers and crew of
the steamer Far West, which was fro
zen in 20 miles below Pierre, are lost.
The steam ferryboat Jim Leighton is
landed on eight feet of ice GOO feet from
the river bank. Teton island, which
was heavily timbered, was swept clean
as though mown, and covered seven to
15 feet with ice.

Dangerous Illness of D'Iracii

London, March 29.-The Bulletin,
issued this morning, says that Beacons-
field had a restless night, partly because
of pain from gout and paroxysms of asth-
ma. His doctor says the unusually Sc
we're cough has prevented the patient
from obtaining the rest which is nee
essary to overcome the weakness pro-
duced by long confinement. He does
not conceal the fact that there is con-
siderable danger, especially when his
great age is considered.
Lord Beaconsfield has been free from
spasmodic attacks during the day and
his strength is fully maintained. DIR.
Kidd states that both himself and DR..
Quain have every hope.

Cincinnati, March 29.-Maud S. was
seven years old yesterday, and the event
was celebrated at Chester park by a
number Of horsemen. She is in splen-
did condition, barring small splint on
the outside Of the right leg, which is
growing less and won't be serious.
She has grown considerably in the past
year, and her trainer, Balm, predicts for
her much greater success than last year.
Balm yesterday asked Col. Bullock, a
wealthy citizen, who visited, to mark
on her stall his guess as to the record
she would make this year. Col. Bull
lock marked 1904 and Balm wrote be-
low 2:07. 1 am confident of making
that with her before the season IS over,
he said; she is one year older than when
she made her best record; is more ex-
perienced and better educated; besides,
at Chicago, where she made her best
record, she had disadvantage, for the
wind which was against her on the first
quarter changed, and she had to face it
in the third quarter instead of having
it with her, as she should have had.
He stated that she will not be matched
against any other horse, but that all
her efforts to trot here, at Chicago and
probably at Minneapolis, where there
is an effort to get her and st. Julien
together, will be to lessen her former
record.

bill, which the readjusters stand by,
fixed the debt at less than $40, 600. 900,
made the coupons not receivable for
taxes. made the bonds taxable, and the
rate of interest three per cent. 1t was
proposed to make this law without
the consent of the states creditors, on
the ground that it was just to both the
creditors and the state. The readjust-
ers' bill excludes from the state debt
interest accumulated during the war
and the reconstruction period; the Nc
Cullough bill includes this.

Washington, March 29.-The causes
leading to the disaffection of MacVeagh
and James were briefly considered, it is
said, in to-day's cabinet meeting. The
president will undoubtedly make firm
stand in the nominations Of Chandler
and Robertson. No one seems to be-
lieve that the name of either will be
withdrawn. If, in consequence of the
confirmation of either or both of these
gentlemen, Postmaster General James
or Attorney General Mac Veagh finds it
incompatible to remain in the cabinet
it is believed that his resignation will
be promptly accepted, and a new man
called to his place without. delay.
There is good authority for the state
ment that MacVeagh opposed Chand-
ler's selection, but yielded SO far as to
postpone any intention OF resigning till
it was seen whether the senate would
confirm or reject the nomination. If
Chandler should be confirmed Mac
Veagh's resignation is among the possi-
bilities, although his friends will try
and dissuade him from taking such a
step. There is some reason to believe
that he has already decided to remain
in the cabinet, even in the event of
chandler's confirmation.
Postmaster General James declines to
talk in regard to his attitude in the
reported disagreements. 1t is not be-
lieved that he will tender his resigna-
tion.
The Star this evening prints the fol-
lowing, upon alleged good authority:
When the president intimated to the
attorney general that he contemplated
appointing VIM. e. Chandler as solic-
itor general, Mr. MacVeagh said: Mr..
President, the nomination will be ex-
ceedingly distasteful to me, and hope
you will reconsider your intention to
make the nomination, for If it is made
shall certainly resign. A few days
thereafter the nomination was sent to
the senate. Thereupon kthe attorney
general called upon the president and
said: "The nomination of Mr.. Chan
dler having been sent to the senate, in
view of the fact that intimated that
in the event of its going in should re-
sign, l can only suppose that my resig-
nation will he acceptable" The presi-
dent said that he misunderstood the
situation, and further declared that he
had not understood that MacVeagh had
declared to him that he would resign if
Chandler's nomination went in. The
attorney general said that such was the
position, and he was sorry if the presi-
dent had misunderstood it. The mat
ter is now in this shape, and if the
nomination of Chandler is confirmed
MacVeagh will resign; if not he will
act. 1t is said, however, that if Mac
Veagh does resign the president will
appoint Chandler attorney general.

Hox. II. A. W. TABOR, of Denver, the
Lieutenant Governor of Colorado for
the past two years, has announced to
the state senate his intention to hold
the office until his successor has been
qualified. The late George b. Robin
son was elected lieutenant governor at
the last election, but died before quail
fying. 1t appears that there is no pro
vision in the constitution or laws of the
state for such an emergency, and the
case, if the issue should he raised IN
the state senate, would have to 80 to
the supreme court for settlement.
