conlev wants a Race.

The letter which Peter Conley of Portland
sent to England last November proposing a
race with any English sculler, was never an
swered, and, week ago, Conley forwarded
another letter, saying he would row the win
ner of the Perkins-Largan race Of next
Thursday and give him five seconds start
from Putney to Mortlake, the stakes to be
$500 or $1,000 side, and the race to be rowed
in six weeks from signing articles of agree
ment. Conley thinks this proposition WILDE
acceptable to the winner of the coming race.
1t is learned from Conley that he and Court
ney, before their last double-scull race,
rowed IA seconds faster than they could in
practice before the first race, and still In the
race against Lee and Hanlan they rowed 26
seconds slower than against Gaudaur and
Hosmer. This fact convinces him that Court
ney did not do his share of the work in the
race against Lee and Hanlan, and he charg-
es that the big carpenter lied to the public
when he said he had to row in slow
boat. Conley says, Furthermore, that Court
ney has only himself to blame if retribution
follows him for going back on the man who
took him from obscurity after everybody had
cried him down,

After the Storm.

The sun shone yesterday morning for the
first time since last Tuesday and while the
icy trees were lighted up with dazzling bril-
liancy, the golden sunshine only served to
emphasize the fearful havoc that had been
created. The streets were alive with teams
during the day, their occupants apparently
anxious to see the effects of the storm for
themselves.
The street commissioners gang was busy
removing limbs, and topping off dangerous
branches, and large gangs of men were re-
pairing wires from which heavy masses of
ice were continually falling. The fire alarm
was reported all right in the lower part of
the city below City Hall and almost entirely
so in the upper part above the City Building.
a portion of the arc lights were lighted by
the electric light company. The telephone
is not vet working.

ST. LOUIS, June l4.-A severe wind
storm prevailed in Texas last night and
early this morning, and it is feared great
damsge has been done. No particulars
are obtainable owing to the fact that tele-
graphic communication has been severed
since 7;30 this morning. At that hour
Galveston reported the wind bloSing at the
rate Of sixty miles en- hour. The lower
part of the island on which the city of Gal.
weston is situated, was under water.
A dispatch from New Orleans ssys: A
severe storm is reported at Galveston,
Texas. At present there is no telegraphic
communication with that city. The lines
are 20 K as far ss Houston. 1t is stated
that gale reaching sixty miles an hour
was blowing at Galveston at 6 o'clock
this morning and the water was high over
the east and west ends Of that place.
NeoS-Commuuication with Galveston
has not yet been restored. II seems$hss
the storm this morning wsshed away por-
tons of the two bridges which span Gal
weston Bay and swept away every telegraph
line running into Galveston, aud the city is
completely cut of from railway and tele-
graph communication.
