have been much suffering among the men, as the thermometer was down to So above zero and strong north wind all nigh tand to-day. Mandon is but five feet above the ordinary level and the rise was so sudden that many had to wade waist deep in order to reach the bluff. But one boat can be seen. That is busy in collecting clothing, provisions, etc. No estimate of the loss can be made until the river falls sufficiently to permit crossing. Several small houses can be seen floating and pieces of ice three feet thick extend along the main street for six blocks. Near the round house the water is up to the top of flat car. It is feared that there is no means of communication be- tween Fort Lincoln and Mandon on river. An effort will be made tomorrow to reach the distressed people by going up the river. The Missouri below Bismarck is four miles wide. At the levee the lower railroad warehouse was partially demolished and the upper one is water to the roof. Both are full of freight generally unperishable. The Can ton line warehouse and government ware house were washed from their foundations and drifted to the bottom below. All per- ishable goods were removed The transfer boats of the Union and Northern Pacific are injured and may be destroyed when the ice goes out.
 Several wood choppers were caught on the bottoms by the flood, and at least three are known to have perished. L. Merry and wife in Burnt Creek bottom are also supposed to have perished. The number of cattle and horses lost in this county aggregat several hundred, and at the farm houses great quantity of wood has been carried away. Old river men say such flood has never been known on the upper Missouri It is very cold to night and the suffering among the unsheltered people on the bluffs back of Mandon must be very great.

AQuarrei in the Imperial Family.
 PARIS, March 31.-The Lanterrae publishes telegram from St. Petersburg stating that violent quarrel has broken out in the Imperi- al family. in consequence of which the Grand Duke Constantine, who is strongly suspected of Nihilism, is about to resign the high post of grand admiral and minister of marine im- mediately after the departure of the foreign princes from St. Petersburg. Measures of extreme severity are to be taken against the Nihilists.
 LONDON, March 31-The Standards St. Petersburg correspondent says Constantine will resign in favor of Alexis; that when Constantine, who is the hero of the Diamond Sterling story, applied for permission to pay his respects to the remains of the late mon arch. The Czar sent him in reply an open telegram with the royal signature addressed ''to him who is unworthy the name of Grand Duke' branding him a disgrace to his family and Russia and abruptly refusing him permission to visit the capital.

 of being efficiently, though unobtrusively, -Conkling in New York politics. All three are believed to be very friendly to ex- Judge Robertson. It is remembered here that at the time of MT. Platt's election to the United States Senate he was Cornell's candi- date and was opposed by Mir. Crowley, Conk- ing's candidate, and that then Judge Robert son's support of Platt, which elected him, was rnmored to have been secured by the Govern or by certain pledges for the future. It is said here that the time has arrived for the Governor to pay his political debt to- Judge Robertson and that he has gone to New York to iquidate it by making some positive arrangement with MT. Windom and MT MacVeagh looking to se- curing Robertson's nomination as Collector of the port of New York. No other good reason, politicians say, can be given for the Governors sudden trip to New York at this juncture. The whole affair creates much speculation. -r-.

BradlauGh Still Raising the Wind.
 LONDON, March 31.-In the House of Com mons to- night Mir. Henry Labouchere, who is Mir. Bradlaugh's fellow member for the bor- ough of Northampton, moved for the issue of the Speakers writ for 8 new election to fill the vacancy caused by Mir. Bradlaugh's expulsion. The writ will probably be issued immediately, and the election will take place in ten days. Bradlaugh will be candidate for reelection and Labouchere will canvass the borough and speak in his favor. It is the intention of the Conservatives to contest the election to the utmost in their power and the contest will be sharp one. Should Bradlaugh be returned he will present him. self to take the oath, which he refused be- fore to do. His right to do so will be chal- lenged on the ground that his conviction in the case just decided has disfranchised him and made him ineligible forever after to sit as member of Parliament.

Hazen's Battle With the Weather.
 CHICAGO, March 31.-The signal bureau promised us fair weather to-day. Instead 1t is quite cloudy and cold with indications of another snow storm. This morning the Inter Ocenn says General Hagen seems to have entirely lost his grip on the weather and the clements take 8 malicious delight in set ting his predictions at naught. Tuesday he announced fair weather for this region and the consequence was a severe snow storm. It might be well, perhaps, for the General to make & standing announcement of fair and stormy weather for Chicago and thus cover all contingencies.

Secretary Windom's Visit to New York.
 NEW YORK, March 31.-The arrival to-day in this city of Secretary Windom and party on official business connected with the re- funding operations of the government is con- sidered in commercial circles one of the most important events in the financial world which has occurred since the resumption of specie payments. Secretary Windom is accompan- jed by Assistant Secretary Upton, Controller of the Currency Knox, Attorney General Wayne McVeagh and E. J. Babcock. An agent of the National Associated Press had an interview with the party at the Fifth avenue Hotel tonight and was officially informed that all reports hitherto published concerning the proposed programme of the party have been both un- authorized and incorrect. Secretary Win dom said that he came with but one policy. He wished to meet as many as possible of New York's great bankers and fnanciers for the single purpose of discussing with them in person the feasibility of different propo- mtions regarding the funding of maturing obligations of the government and obtaining their different views On the part of the government, the Secretary said, nothing had yet been finally decided upon and nothing would be decided upon at any of the confer ences to be held during his visit, nor until the Cabinet meeting which will be called af- ter the parties return to Washington.
