CAUGHT BY A CL0UD-BURST.
Eleven Cowboys Drowned by Midnight Del
uge-The Camp Swept Away.

DENVER, COL May 3l-Word was received
here to night that cattle round up camp on the
Frenchman creek In Nebraska, Just over the
Colorado line was destroyed on Thursday by
flood, and eleven cowboys, belonging to Colorado
and Nebraska outfits drowned Up to last
night FIVE bodies had been found, and six COW
boys who were in the camp when the sudden
flood came down upon it are missing
When the tragedy occurred nearly fifty men
FOUNDERS foremen cattle-owners and cowboys
were in the camp together The roundup
outfit of Colorado roundup district No 10 ar
rived at tho Frenchman on Thursday, and
meeting the other parties, joined forces and
camped with them near the Cooper camp All
of the wagons of the Colorado outfit had been
left in the mouth of the old Cheyenne Indian
trail canyon, but the Nebraska parties had theirs
with them. Just before night some of the cow
boys coming into camp from up the stream
dropped the remark casually that the French
man was rising above but as little rain had fallen
in the vicinity of the camp, the dark clouds
hanging over the creek fifteen or twenty miles
above were not noticed particularly, and none of
the men in the outfits felt the slightest appre-
hension of danger The Frenchman had. during
the evening, unnoticed by any of the roundup
outfits been gathering strength and VIC
lenee and rising rapidly. and shortly
after midnight it is thought that
cloud-burst occurred some distance up the
creek, and swelled the little creek to a mighty
torrent, which burst the banks and came rushing
down upon the camp in mighty wave of
water, which swept away wagons, animals and
men at once just before daybreak the water in
the bed of the Frenchnan began to recede, and
by daylight the creek had nearly resumed its
old bounds. The banks of the stream were
strewn for miles with fragments of wagons,
tents tent poles and blankets. 1t was discov
cred that the flood had arisen from a cloud-burst
which had occurred a small fiat at the head
of Cheyenne Indian-tra cayon an hour so be-
fore the camp was swept away The fall of
water tore great holes in the ground and carried
down tons of soil and rocks to the creek in one
mighty wave, which left no chance of escape to
the men in the camp which stood directly in its
pathway.

have thought for long time that the French
edict against the American hog product would
be removed but have been wholly disappo iute4I.
When NJ. Ferry some time ago made a speech
at Hayre, he said he was decidedly with the
people of that port on that question. supposed
that his influence would bring about the repeal.
The French people in and about Havre regard
the interdict as an outrage, for which there is
no reason whatever Havre. being the great
seaport has used great quantities of pork and
would do so again. The interdct was brought
about by the spectators at Nantes the great
pork headquarters Every investigation of the
pork has been favorable The great school of
pharmacy at Paris decided by vote of seventy
nine to one that it was healthy food and that it
was inexpedent to keep it out of the country.
