EDITION FLOODED.

People Taken Froul Their Homes
Through tic second story Windows.
FULTON, n. y. Jan. l0.-The most dis
as.rous Good shGt ever visited this place
il now doing incalculable damage at the
Flats large tract lying between the
Oswcgo river and canal. The upper part
Is occupied b7 large Touring mills ard
many other manufacturing concerns, and
fbe lower portion by the homes 0I hun
drcds OF workingmen. A great Jam OF Zee
and snow began to torn in toe river sat
urday and the water gradually set back
OF the fats. The water rose all night,
and this morning the Danger Was So great
that the fise heils were ruug. and the me-
men sud citizens generally hurried TO the
scene.
BEsCUING THE PEOPLE.
An the tow boats obtaiuable we're car
ried thther and people were rescued
from their dwellings, IN many cases from
the second stories. Ine water had put
out the fires and the people suffered IN
tenSelv from the severe cold. The res
cued we're taken to dry land and properly
cared for aud efforts we're made 90 save
some Of the valuable machinery IN the
manufactures. At least - families are
rendered homeless by the flood. The fol-
lowing manufactures are under water:
W. :. Nelson's barrel factory. Dhts
foundry and machine shop, ID. E. Mason's
pail and tub factory, the Fulton Gas
Works, Taylor Bros, knife works,
Toomes' planning mill and sew
sTsl other shops and various lumber
yards.
REMOVING THE FLOUR.
Flour is being removed from the mills.
A great many wCrkmen are necessarily
thrown out Of employment and the water,
which is still rising, viii food the other
mills and factories. The Oswego Falls
factories, mile a bOve, were compelled TO
shut down Saturday on account Of the ice
and these alone employ 1000 workmen.
Some buildings and much machinery on
the lower fats have been wrecked, and
considerable property swept away. 1t is
impOssi BILE at present TO estimate the loss.
At the Union meeting, Methodist, Baptl 81
and Presbyterian churches tonight pray
ers were offered Tor the abatement Of the
ROod.

BERLIN, Jan. 10.-Alarming reports
were current YESTERDAY concerning the
condition of Emperor William, who was
said to be seriously i'll. The rumors prob
ably had their origin in the fact that the
Emperor was suffering from an unusually
severe attack OF rheumatism, aud also
from cold. His Majesty, however, de-
spite his indisposition, gave audience
yesterday to several OF mis- m inieters.

THE loss of the Florida orange crop will be a severe blow to the growing prosperity of that state. Nor will the loss be confined to that peninsular alone, the price of oranges will be greatly en- hanced this coming season. Years ago Messina and Sicily supplied the East, at least, with this deli cious fruit, but of late Florida has driven the Mediterranean product from the field. Enormous for tunes have in the past been speed fly made in oranges and lemons in Florida; many a man who went there with but a few dollars has by simply clearing his land, set ting out a crop and taking it easy, grown as it it were, into riches. It is probable that the constant influx of capital thither will now cease for a while. A fruit culture in growing state which sustains a loss of one million dollars, as Florida has just now is severely crippled for many years. It is an ill wind that blows nobody any good, and California will profit by Florida's loss.

GENERAL BUTLER 1t said to be som S200,000 short Tn his accounts with the National Soldiers Home at Washington. His excuse is that he got his accounts and those of the Soldiers Home mixed up and don't know how he stands. This sounds curious from a man so astute as Butler undoubtedly is, and common people will suspect there is "nigger in woodpile," 1" whose presence there it will take all of this famous criminal law yer's casuistry to explain. As the life long friend of the soldier, as the avowed champion of the labor ing man and as only one year ago the candidate of the Peoples party for the Presidency, he can not afford to remain silent under the accusation that he has stolen money from the soldiers, andwhat is worse, disabled soldiers. He threatens to take the matter into the courts; that is exactly where he ought to go. Many honest peo pie who have suffered from bis rascalities, would rejoice to see him in convict's dress.

SoME. time ago the attention of tue whole country was drawn to the famous Maxwell-Preller mur- der case in St. Louis, but until lately nothing has been heard from it. The trial is soon to come of In St. Louis and it promises to be the most interesting case on record. It Is not too much to say that the whole civilized world has been ransacaed for witnesses. From Auckland, Hong Kong, Eng land, Berlin, Boston and Canada testimony has been assiduously gathered, and the probabilities are that Maxwell will be convicted. The murder it will be remembered was particularly atrocious and sensational. Preller was found dead in the Southern Hotel, St. Louis, in a trunk. Maxwell was tracked to Australia, arrested, brought back to St. Louis and in carcerated, where he now is await ing trial. This case serves to show in unmistakable light the advanced efficiency of the modern detec- tive science.

OUR INDIAN SCOUTS.

The policy of using Indians to fight Indians looks beautiful on paper, but the results don't always pan out as expected. The Indian scouts know too much, are inde- pendent of control and dislike military discipline. A very slight excuse throws them into mutiny or worse. At Duncan, not long since, ''the ponies were tired" just now, at about twenty-five miles below Bowie, the excuse was that "the bread was poor" Moth ing short of Delmonico will suit our fastidious Indian pets while in the field, it seems. The Dun can mutiny was smoothed over in some wsy-certainly not in ac
 cordauce with the ordinary rules of war. Had the white soldiers mutinied there is no doubt that their bones would now be bleach ing in the sun. Not so with our dusky friends. A judicious ad l.. mixture of soft soap and taffy induced them to be so good as to continue in Uncle Sam's servIce, and all offences were condoned. The soft soap and taffy policy. was carried out beautifully in the last case near Bowie. The scout whose bread was poor shot the quarter master and sergeant. The officer in charge, with a fineness of feel
 ing and delicacy of sympathy truly touching, refused to have his command fire on the dusky mur- derer, but kindly let him escape into the mountains. It is conse- quently with feelings of no surprise whatever that We read nearly every day of Apaches deserting, muti- nying and murdering, and it takes no prophet to predict that so long as this namby-pamby policy is pursued with the so-called friend, ly Indians, this scandalous condi- ton of affairs will continue.

 THERE is great wriggling and squirming now in England, caused by Parnelfs demands for Home rule,and what troubles the English most is the consciousness that Par nell has them at a disadvantage. The Tories have offered Ireland a Central Council and County Boards, modelled very much on the plan of our State and County Boards; the Liberals know they must have his aid in carrying out any scheme of their own and they will probably offer hlm something better still. But 1t all comes with a bad grace and great is the tearing of hair and gnashing of teeth over it. Americans enjoy the spectacle believing as we do in a constitutional Republic.

IN another column will be found the terms of admission to the new Normal School which IS to be opened at Tempe on the first of February. No better proof could be found of the steady advance of Arizona in both material and educ ational matters than in this most praiseworthy institution. Though often looked upon with i'll con- ceald scorn there is no nobler profession in the world then that of directing the mental develop ment of the youthful mind. With good schools the success of any country is assured and a Nor nal School strikes at the root of the matter in providing good teachers. We trust it will have the noble success which such an institution so richly deserves.

WHEN the British Parliament opened a few days since, the pre- caution of looking in the cellar was taken, for fear that this rev erend body might be blown sky high by some malcontent who had been wronged. This sort of thing apparently seems all right to our British cousins, but if the Ameri- can Congress should go hunting in the cellar for burglars in that infantile manner, they would be hooted from Maine to California. We hear great deal about the
 solemnity and dignity of the historic British Parliament, but the spectacle of that august body taking a candle as it were and looking under the bed for ghosts is exceedingly diverting to the American reader. There is noth- jug like having clear conscience with nations as well as with men.

TIE winter of 1885 -S6 will long be remembered as one of unprece- dented severity. Snow has fallen in places where it was never known before and frost has pene- trated into the semi-tropical re- gions of Florida In the North railroad communication has been suspended for days and days. Railroads have had to e1pend enormous sums of money to keep their lines open. A soft damp snow would fall, and then freeze solid so that nothing but 8 pick axe would have any effect on it. But this made times good for tho poor man.

JOHN P. CLUM, of Tombstone, is again in the field as a candidate for Indian Agent at SIn Carlos. MT. Cum filled the position years ago with credit to himself and perfect satisfaction to the people. Should he be appointed, he will be the right man in the right place, and at this particular juncture, can accomplish more good in a quiet way, than the entire U. s. army. Had MT. Cum been on hand on the 17th of May last, in our humble opinion, the outbreak had never occurred, and many valuable lives had been saved to the country.
