JACKSONVILLE, FLA, Sept. 20.-There
seems 10 be no end to the rain storms In
this section. 1t has continued to pour in
heavy volumes at intervals since Satur-
day, and tonight it is again pouring
down. 1t is unprecedented in the history
Of the couatry. The amount Of damage
to country roads, bridges, railroads, river
docks and private property is incalcula-
bic. Out OF six railroads centering here
only one, the Jacksonville, Tampa and
Key West, had trains running to-day. No
mails have come from the East or West.
and general business is seriously incom-
modcd. No mails came in or went out
Tonight
IRAVEL AT A STANDSTiLL.
Travel is at a complete standsull. The
Savannah, Florida and Western railway
has sustained heavy damages from the
flood, and it is difficult to say whether
trains can come in tomorrow. IL is said
that the country along the line of this
road near Big Trout creek, Is a rushing
lake of water, and that the track Is
washed away in many places. A con-
struction train, with large force OF men,
leaves here at O'Clock IN the morning for
the scene Of devastation. The line OF the
Florida Railway and Navigation Com
pany, between Baldwin and Fernandina,
is nearly all washed away. 1t
will be nearly the same rs building
new road bed The Jacksonville,
st. Augustine aud Halifax River,
the Jacksonville and Atlantic, and the
Transit roads have all sustained heavy
damages, which are incalculable at this
time. The rains seem general throughout
the State, and the country is flooded. The
question is, when will the deluge end2
At least IS inches Of rain have fallen in
the last ninety-siX hours. The water IN
streams continued 10 rise last night, and
the roads are so washed out that the
RAILROAD people think 1t unsafe to send out
any but work trains. All the roads are
working like beavers to orepair the damage.
ALL UNDER WATER.
The water is within a short distance
Of tne trestle over st. Mary's river on the
Savannah, Florida and Western road.
Wast0uts on the Florida Railway and
Navigation system are numerous.
GULLIEs CUT BY THE STREAMS.
On the Jacksonville, st. Augustine and
Halifax road there are gullies cut by the
swollen streams at Bayard, Sweetwater
aud Deerbin, and no trains have passed
over the track for two days. Thomas
creek is miles wide, and rowboats can
90 along the Savannah, Florida and
Western track II miles. All the streams
around the city are bank full.
The streams are still rising. No dam
age has been done TO buildings in the city
or to the wharYes yet. In the ST. Johns
river the water stands u inches above the
normal height.

FOUK NEGRoEs LYNCHED.

Two Families Exterminated by the
Criminals Months Before the Aveng-
ing.
RALEIGH, n. c., Sept. 20.-Last night
four negroes, Jerry Finch, his wife, Lee
Tyson and John Pattishall, were lynched
one mile from Pittsboro, Chatham county.
They were taken from Jail and their bod
les were found this morning suspended TO
a tree near the public road. This is the
terrible sequal TO the triple murder OF the
Finch family on the night Of the 4th OF
last July, and OF the murder OF the Gun
ter family near the same spot some eigh-
teen months ago. There were two Of the
Finch family. Edward, aged 70, and his
sister, aged 81. They were found on the
morning OF Sunday, July, 3, lying on the
floor with their throats cut. Near them
Law their servant. anegrO boy aged l6. A II
had been knocked in the.head with an axe.
THE MURDERERs.
SusplcIon early ~ested on the negro
Jerry Finch and he was arrested. 10 was
"a great task from the first 20 prevent the
lynchlng Of these parties. lee Tyson was
afterwards arrested and some time later
Pattlshall was taken on charge OF being
concerned in the Gunter murder and pos
sibly In the Finch murder. He was said
TO have been seen near the spot where
the Gunters we're killed, and next morn
ing WAS in another county and told the
Grst news known there OF tue crime. De-
tectyea from Richmond worked up the
case. The verdict Of the coroner's jury
was long delayed, they feeling that II II
was adverse TO the prisoners they would
be promptly lynched. The verdict when
rendered was against the prisoners. A
maioPlty OF the people appeared 10 be we'll
satisfied that these people we're guilty Of
both murders, for the TWO wero mysteri-
,usiy connected.

eases that might be brought here by means
OF infected clothing. He offered an amend
ment excepting such clothing as was
shown by proper certificate to be thor
oughly dsinfected.
Mr.. burden created considerable
amusement by offering an amendment ex-
ceptin2 cotton, linen and wooden goods.
MIR. Brandt said he hoped that the
House would vote against the bill if 1t
wanted to.
Mr.. BRANDT SARCASTIC.
Ii was no doubt very funny, aud the
gentleman deserved great credit for his
extraordinary display of wit, but the bill
was introduced IN good faith at the sug-
gestion OF prominent physicians. Mr..
Br2ndt said that he was not engaged in
the secondhand clothing business and
did not represent anybody that was. He
represented only his honest conYic-
tions, based upon the best medical au.
thoritv in the State.
Mr.. Boyd spoke in favor Of the bill. He
said he was opposed to the importation of
secondhand clothing because it was dan
gerous and because he didn't want any
such shoddy goods put on his people.
A WAR "REMINISCENCES.
| MIR. Goodwyn SAID that when he was in
the Northern prisons, clothing was
infested with Vermin. He got enough of
| secondhand clothing then and he did not
| want any more. He was in favor of the
| bill.
! The bill was passed by 81 ayes to 81
nays, and goes to the Senate.
/ The House took up the bill entered by
Mr.. Brantley to provide for private hang
lngs and to prevent any execution ia
/ public.
! PROVISIONS OF THE BILL.
The bill allowed relations and invited
| friends, the officers and sufficient guard
| to attend. Mr. Brantley spoke in support
| Of his bill. He said that there was no
| excuse for public hangings The State
! should not encourage the morbid taste
that leads men to attend them and should
abolish the occasion for great crowds
that make holiday and picnic Of what
| ought TO be serious affair. A hanging
is now often the occasion for drunkenness
and crime. The bill was lost by SO ayes
to 36 nays.
IN THE SENATE.
The Senate rushed business alOng'rap-
! idly to-day, passing a large number OF
bills, many of which were, however, un.
important in character. Among the bills
passed OF interest were the following:
Incorporating the town of Vernonburg
in Chatham county.
To incorporate the Commercial Bank oI
! WaycrOss.
To incorporate the town of Gordon, pre-
scribe its limits, and provide for its mode
OF government.
To require the registration Of the voters
OF Appling.
To amend the Senate acts Incorporating
the town of WaYcross.
Mr.. Falligant introduced resolution fol
the relief of the London Assurance Com
pany, of England.
A resolution to provide for al adjust
ment and settlement of the claims, equit
able or otherwise, of the Marietta anC
North Georgia railroad against the State
was made the special order for Thursday
No session of the Senate was held in
the afternoon, as all of the committees
were outa work.
