The statement which is going the rounds
of the press that Gov. Robes private secre-
tary is at work in Franklin country for Mr..
Bodwell, gives an entirely erroneous impress
sion. Mr.. Potter, the gentleman referred to,
some year and half ago did some work for
Gov. Robbie. That is all there is in the
statement that he is the Governors private
Secretary. Whatever he is doing in Frank
lin county for Mr.. Bodwell he is doing en-
tirely on his own responsibility, and the first
knowledge Gov. ROBBIE had that he was doing
anything came from the newspapers.

The free ship bill may possibly get through
the House, but the Senate stands in the way
Of its becoming law. Its effect would GER
tainly be to kill Immediately all ship build
ing in this country, and it is far from certain
-tEatit. would revive our carrying trade. Con-
gresham Dingley pointed out that it was
not the excess in the first cost of the ship in
this country that caused the trouble, but the
great expense of sailing her after she is
built. That expense would be no smaller
if the vessel was bought instead of built.
The chances are, therefore, that we should
find after a little while that we had killed
one industry to revive lanother, and had not
succeeded in our purpose.

The interstate commerce bill bids fair to
go the same way similar bills have gone be-
fore it. The Cullom bill has been thrown
out by the House committee and the Reagan
bill reported as substitute The Reagan
bill differs from the Cullom bill in that it
provides for no commission. 1t is much
harsher measure also. If the House
passes it, the probability is that the Senate
will not agree to it, and between the two
houses legislation on the subject will fail al
together. This is to be regretted, for it is
generally admitted that some restrictive leg
islation in regard to our railroads is badly

The Delegate situation.

Canton, Oak, Aug. 21-The Dakota
delegate situation has changed very
little the past week It is now believed
that Harrison Alien is out of the race,
leaving no prominent candidate in the
field against Delegate Clifford. MIR.
Clifford will doubtless secure the sup
port of the Black Hills delegation.
Morton county, just across the
river from Bismarck, will send a
i.ge:a doies ation, wniie tnat gentle
man will also receive o pretty
eolld support from the jamestown,
Grand Forks and Devils Lake regions.
In south Dakota it is pretty safe to
count him four out Of every Eve coun.
ties. at Mitchell, Huron, 'Yankton,
Pierre and Sioux Falls the Clifford
sentiment predominates. Clay and
Union counties are for the division
candidates. Although the campaign
is we'll along, only three counties have
held their conventions. Hughes county.
with Blk votes, instructed for Clifford,
while Kolette, on the extreme northern
border, sends three Clifford
delegates to the Yankton convention.
The other county, Logan, elects one
delegate whose preference has not been
learned. 1t is pretty safe to predict the
denomination OF Delegate Clifford by
exclamation. The first two weeks in
September will finish the bulk OF the
Dakota county conventions. Those
called are as follows:
Aurora county, at Plankinton, Sept. 8;
Beadie, at Huron, Sept. /; Bookings,
at Brookings, Sept. A; Clay, at Vermil-

New York, Aug. 2-Eleven hundred
OF the employees of the Broadway and
Seventy avenue surface road, were paid
off to day. Superintendent Newell has
advertised for new men and expects to
start out the cars on Saturday noon. A
force Of seventy police are guarding the
STABLES. Fifteen non-union men for extra
list Of Third Avenue surface road,
started for the stables of the Broad
way road to apply for work
but were intercepted by the
strikers, assaulted and driven away
1t is asserted that the company had
violated their agreement, which was to
make each driver and conductor run
only five trips daily. The new schedule
would make them run siy trips a day or
about sixteeh hours. The employees
of the Central line left work at four p.
m. They complained of discharges on
frivolous pretexts, and also increasing
hours of work, with a reduction in
wages.
The employees of the three roads
known as the Forty-second street lines
complain of new time table, issued to-
day, under which they claim they will
have to work ten hours daily without
rest. A strike probably will be ordered
tonight.

CAPITAL NOTES.
CUTTINGS

bOL1iNp .
Washington. Aug. M-An official tele-
gram has been received from Col. Sedg-
wick confirming the press report of Gut
tings release, but giving no particu
lars. No doubts are entertained at
the department that the published state
ment with regard to tho reason alleged
by the Mexicans for their action is cor
rect. The release will not effect Sedg-
wick's mission, which is to learn all the
facts in the case. The government does
not st present concern itself with any
question of damages for Cutting, but
will use any information it may gather
through Sedgwick IN furtherance
of it's negotiations for a
change OF Mexican laws, IN
so far as they are held to give o right
to try Americans for acts committed
within American territory. The Aresures
Mondragon murder is still a subject OF
correspondence, or rather of inquiry, as
it appears at present that the only act
for which this government can demand
redress Is Tor that OF the kidnapping OF
Aresures when he was domioiled
upon this side of the border line.
In no locality can it be expected that
Mondragon will be surrendered FOR q
trial. to the American authority'a
special treaty clause intervening to
warrant the refusal upon Mexico's part
to surrender one OF her citizens upon
any pretext.

III y STORM

ELIEF FOR THE SUFFERERS.
Galveston, Aug. 24-The city council
ct a meeting last evening appropriated
$1,000 for the benefit OF the storm
sufferers Of this city. The citizens have
subscribed $4,000 for the same purpose.
This will only afford temporary relief as
oyer mt hundred and fifty families are
rendered homeless and destitute by the
s.arm.
EFFECT OF THE STORM ON TIL COAST.
The recent storm proved very destruc-
tive to small vessels off the Texas coast.
It will doubtless be months before o full
list Of the casualties are known. One
sleep has gone to pieces off Pelican
isiaud, wniIe another sloop anchored
near here is bottom up. The crew of
" men is supposed to have been
drowned. Unknown vessels and three
schooners are reported ashore or over
turned ut different points on the coast.
Two OF the crew OF one schooner are lost
and crew of another boat supposed also
to have been lost. All the small crafts
in the bay from the Shoals to Edwards
Point are reported lost. A lumber
schooner has gone to pieces IN the bay
and her captein and cook are drowned,
1t is roughly estimated that the damage
done to shipping in this vicinity during
the storm wiE~ approximate 100000 the
village Of Q%nintana at the mouth of the
Brazos river was entirely swept away
and two schooners driven ashore. Nc
lives lost 30 far SO known. Indivaloa
is a complete wreck, not nsore than three
or four houses escaping t~destrnotion by
the heavy storm. A negro woman and
two children were drowned. Nearly all
the cattle and sheep on Pelican Island
are drowned and the remainder vii
probably perish.

The Haddock Case-Nothins New
Since Saturday.

The ddO CaSe-&othing New
Since Saturday.
Sioux City Journal.
The re-convening of the c%oroner's jury
is now awaited with much interest, in
hopes that some new and definite deyel-
opments may be brought forth. Since
Saturday night nothing has occurred
that would indicate to the outside world
who the guilty parties are, or even who
Is suspected. 1t has been stated that
new witnesses who were thought to be
in possession of material facts would be
brought up Thursday, but the proof of
this is not positive. Whatever work is
being done now is being done very
quietly, and it is hoped that it will be
productive of much good.
wHY HE DID IT.
An attorney of this city who talked
| with Mr.. Haddock the Gay he was killed
tells a Journal reporter that the rever-
end gentleman expected violence, and in
speaking of the matter, said: "What.
s7eT they do, they will do the very worst
thing for themselves" When asked why
he did not subpoena men Tor witnesses
who where known to drink occasionally
but who could be relied on to tell the
truth under oath, he said that such men
could be obtained for witness, and forty
nine ont of City Of them %eG!a tel! She
truth when put on the stand, but he
wanted to carry on the fight with as
little personal feeling as possible, and
he knew that to bring these men uI
there would be to anger them, and
probably make workers of them for the
opposition, when they were passive and
took no active work on either side. He
preferred to give the testimony himself
rather than bring these men in and thus
array them on the opposite side in nine
cases out of ten. While he thought no
unlikely that an effort would be made
TO do him personal harm, he was still
brave and did not in any way hesitate

Mandalay, Aug. 24-One of the en-

ia on this city yesterday. The break
was about three hundred yards in
length, and go rapid was the flow of the
water, that in o few moments the whole
district was flooded from four to
ten feet deep. The engineers
at once began to cut
the dam south of the city to allow the
water to subside, but the result of this
action is as yet unknown. Fifty thous-
and persons are to-day homeless, their
houses having been either submerged or
destroyed. Numbers we're drowned by
the sudden rush 0! waters, but how
many has not yet been ascertained. The
flooded district held within its territory,
