Damage Done to HrIdEcs-EneCt on the
Trains,
Reports received yesterday from nearly
all points along the line OF the Baltimore
& Ohio road between Moundsville and
Grafton, were to the effect that that section
was swept overon Monday night by the
most devastating storm known for year,.
None Of these reports were as reliable and
authentic as could be- desired, for the rea.
sou that it was al most simply impossible
to obtain them. The u. x o. telegraph
wires were blown and washed down and
so twisted that 1t was not until late yes.
terday afternoon that they were gotten
into anything like working order. The
road itself was 30 badly damaged that il
Was impossible to run through trains over
the main line, and they had to be sent
over the Hemaeld and Pittsburgh divi.
sions via Pittsburgh and Cumber'
land, In order to got through. The
"Daisy Limited" from Baltimore
to Chicago, did not pass through
here until sfIGr midnight, over four hOura
late, by reason { having been Obliged to
cone around via Pittsburgh. The prin'
Clpal damage consisted OF the washing
away Of the bridge near Burton and SO
seriously weakening the bridges at Little
tuu aud MAnnington that II was not Bat
to run trains over them, 10
addition, there were a numeI
OF large washouts neCessitstlnl
considerable filling. A large force oil
laOOrers and bridge buildsTs were put IL
work early yesterday morning and re-
lieved last evening by other gangs aud Il
is expected that the bridges will be rebuilt
and the ROAD bed 30 far repaired 80 thai
trains can be run over the main stem to-
day as usual. The damage to the road
will be considerable.
1t will AMolnt to little however, com
pared 10 that done tho farmers and the
county roads and bridges which wOrt
swept away. Ths only loss oil lils report
ed is that Ut Pennington as reported In
the special dispatch given above. Fences
were swept away, outhouses turned ovel
and cropa badly injured. The rspidity
with which the mountain streams
became rushing torrents, even when the
herCenGss OF ths storm and the
great body OF water that fell
Is considered wonderful. 1t spem
ed MS though a great wall Of water can't
rushing down and its force was such tina

was tho worst storm since the awin
one Of 1872 aud some say 1t was as bad !
not worse than that one. 1t was muCl

that also compelled tho b. & o. to send IL

Congressman Brady speaks of Large Re-
publican Congressional Gains.

WAsuISaToN, D. o., August l7,-Con'
gressmAn Brady, of Petersburg, Va
thinks matters politically looking fine,
He says; ~ have seen q great deal ol
political matters at home since Congress
adjourned, and find no reason for not
reasserting our claim to large Congress-
i0ual gains this fall. II we do not have
six or seven ont OF Virginia's ten Com
gressnen, you may be sure that there will
be q repetition OF the Democratic frauds OF
the last few years, which rendered Demo-
cratic success possible. From careful re.
turnareCently reCeiyedfrom all the districts,
| have figured out maiorities for us in all
except Daniels, Oabell's and BarbOur's
distTiGta. These we have conceded TO tho
Democrats all along, but since have
looked into matters across the river | am
mot without hopes OF even the eighth,
Understand that do not claim that all
the seven or eight districts will go Repub'
liCsn, -Four will surely, but the rest we
claim Rs antl-DemocraliC, Independent
Demo cratic candidates are looming up on
all sides and the Knights OF Labor are
making war on the old Bourbous, who
look upon lahoring men as beasts Of bur.
den. Moreover, proteClioRist sentiments
are progressing with lapidity that
alarms the old party rulers, Let me
assure you that the elections In Virginia
this fall will give the BOurbous there aud
throughout the South the greatest sur.
prise u their life, and the surprise will
not be OF o pleasant character either"
"And you think the Republicans have
chance in the Alexandria distriCtP"
ut certainly looks that way at present" "
was the reply. From all the Information
that has come to me l Judge that the CON.
ing convention will end in q split or the
production Of such fractional bitterness
that an Independent Republican Candl'
date will have an exCellect chance. Is.
pecially will this be the case il Lee il
nominated, for the workingmen almost Rs
bOiy are determined 10 break away from
the aristoCratic rule Of the old families,
II they do not come out openly for an IN.
dependent, they will do silent but effect.
i've work at the polls. On asQuare party
vote, OF Courss, the Democrats are largely
in the majority; but it appears TO me that
10 candidate mentioned so far before the
convention can bring ont anything like
the full party strength"

cation of the fact that William Gray, Jr,
Treasurer OF the Atlantic and Iudiar
Orchard Mills Corporations, Is defaultel
10 an enormous amount has created greaI
excitement here, 1t is believed that hil
stealings will amount to over q half a mil
lion Of dollars. Gray was depOsed from
the treasursrshlp Of both corporations
several days ago, and William Hooper
was chosen temporary Treasurer Of the
Atlantic Mills and Edmund Dwight Of the
Indian Orchard Mills, The assets OF tbs
two corporations amount to more than
81, 600 900, and 1t is not believed the SOL
vency OF either ia impaired by Gray'a
opeTat' Ols,
Tho capital Of the Atlantic mills is
81. 900 600, and It's assets according to the
last annual statement exCeeds $1,000 900,
The capital olthe Indian Orchard mills
is 5000. 900, The assets are nearly three
timts that sum,
Mr., Gray has heea Treasurer OF the
former for ten yeaTa and OF the latter
corporation for eight years. He has oC-
Cupied foremost position in business
and social circles. He has lived magnili-
Gently aud he was considered wealthy.
He owns fine cutter yacht and no has
baen commodore OF the Dorchester Yacht
Club several years. Mr., Gray is about
BIZ years old and has vile and two sons.
The managing directors OF the Atlantic
Mills Company are ptill engaged upon the
hnnku of tho nnFnnRation IN Holutinn 10 kI,n
deia cations OF Mr., Gray, the late
Treasurer, but at present the exact
amount Of his deiaiCaIion can not be
learned with certainty, In an interview
this morning with two Of the principal
directors, who are anxious that their
names should be withheld, the following
facts were learned; Last Friday the do.
iCienCy was discovered by an examiner
appointed by the directors, and on SAtur-
day Gray came to the office and was con-
fronted with the charge, He, after
q moment or two, confessed the
crime, acknowledged that he had
embezzled the funds Of the corporation to
the extent cf between $500, 900 and $780,
900, but as To the use to which he put the
money his only reply was "building opsr.
atiOns." This accounting is believed to
be true by the directors, who say his oper-
ations OF this character In Roxbury have
been notorious, On Sunday, Gray accom-.
panied by his brother.in.law and a party
OF gentlemen lliends went OH board his
yacht, the Huron, and Cruised about the
lower harbor aud bay during the day and
spent the night below.
Monday morning the yacht came up to
the city and landed Gray and his compan.
ions on Central wharf. Gray ordered the
captain to get ready to Fail again at 2P. NJ,
ut which time Gray stated ho would bs on
board. The captain has not seen Gray
since and the Huron still lies at her an.
chorage. 1t Is known that Gray has left
the city, and 1t is thought Is making his
way for Canada with horse aud buggy.
1t is not believed that he has carried any
oil the stolen money with him US he is be.
lleved to have spent most OF 1t.
