organic union have not been removed.

Rev. Mr. Neel said he was opposed to
organic union, except on proper conditions.
With proper conditions in heavens
name, let the union come. But he believed
there were on the floor those who would
oppose union If the angel Gabriel wrote the
conditions.
TIE Rev DR.. Berkhead said he wanted
the channel of organic union kept open, and
offered as a substitute for the report on or
ganc union n resolution to continue the
committee on conference with the Northern
assembly in regard to organic union, and
report at the next meeting of the general
assembly.
TWO NECESSARY TO A CONTRACT.
Rev. DR.. Campbell said man and wo-
man could not be compelled to marry, if
both did not desire such union. He then
was afraid To force organic union on people
who do not want it. He was in favor of
union when all the difficulties were removed,
but that time had not come. He was, how
ever, in favor of close relation and CO.
operation of the two churches. Progress
had been made in that direction,
and why not so on and expect more. Ii it
was expected that tho white people of the
South will mix with the colored people,
that expectation will fail, for the people of
the South will not do it.
The substitute of DIR. Berkhead was re-
jected.
The subject was then laid aside, and the
remainder of the night session was occupied
in discussion of foreign missions.

What MeSsrs Dana and Reid Think

CINCINNATI, May 2S-The Commercial
Gazette will print in the morning inter
views with c. A. Dana, of the New York
Sun, and Whitelaw Reid. of the New York
Tribune.
Mr.. Dana says of President Cleveland
that there is nothing now to show any
opposition to his denomination, and he
believes it likely that President Cleveland
will have the say as to the
nominee for the Vice Presidency.
Otherwise, if elected, he, might be
handicapped. He said that if Blaine should
be nominated the Mugwumps would be
quite as strong and fully as bitter as
before, and the stalwarts, especially those of
the Oneida county breed, will likewise be
very strong and very bitter. OF the Re-
publican Presidential candidates he said
that Chauncey NJ. Dspew would undoubtedly
beat out of sight in New York any man the
Democrats could put up with the exception

"No ono can say what he would do if unani-

word. Nothing short of a unanimous nomi-
nation would tempt him to reconsider his

RECOVERY NOT PROBABLE.
While the Generals condition is somewhat
improved, the chances are all still against
his recovery, and this fact is fully appreci-
ated. 1t is impossible to tell when change
may occur, and as several days have elapsed
between the early attacks of heart failure,
there is constant apprehension of its recur-
renee. The disappearance Of the oedema
in the legs has been quite marked and has
given rise to fear that it may have been
in part caused by the fluid which produces
the swelling having gone to other and more
vital parts of the body.

revenue reformers some anxiety. They de-
clare that they will propose their amend
ment to the internal revenue sections Of the
Mills bill amendments which practically
renaal the internal reyonue laws in the
House without regard TO the wishes Of the

saw. because their constituents desire it
and in the confident belief that the amend

votes in the House. They simply want to
put themselves on record. So far they have
not been brought to see the absurdity of
their position by the arguments OF their

Great Loss of Live Stock and Crops
Suffered by Farmers.
CHADRoN, NEB., May 2S-The water
spout which broke in the northwestern part
of this county Saturday night submerged
five miles of track on the Fremont, Ellkhorn
and Missouri Valley railroad, and washed
away numerous bridges. Ithas rained hard
since o'clock Saturday afternoon without
stopping, and the country is flooded.
Farmers all along tho White and Lone Tree
rivers have had to abandon their homes, n
number Of which have been washed away.
White River rose feet in 40 minutes. The
water came almost in a solid wall. 1t is
impossible to cross White river, as all
the highway bridges are washed out, and it
Is feared that great damage has been done
further northwest, as the waterspout came
from that direction. Capt j. A. Sweet, a
farmer, lost sixteen head of cattle and five
head of horses, the water coming in such a
wall that it carried the live stock along with
it. Mr.. Sweet came across the river in
boat, and reports that terrible damage has
been done to other farmers, both by the loss
of live stock and crops.
STILL RISING.
The rivers are still rising and it is raining
hard. No loss of life is yet reported, but ii
is feared that after a full report can be OBJ
tained there will be fatalities to record.
The cloud was plainly visible from here,
and it had the appearance Of a rolling mass
of black clouds revolving like cart wheel
or log, entirely different from a cyclone
cloud. A man named Anderson was in the
extreme southern limit of the spout and
he reports the water coming in a solid wall
10 feet deep, and carrying everything possir
BILE before it, Andersen barely escaped with
his life. This section is noted for water
spouts The last one occurred three years
ago and carried away an entire railroad
camp, which was then building the Ere
mont, Elkhorn and Missouri Valley road.
