CHARLESTON, w. VA, February 90
Last October Miss Louise Dettimore, who
lived near Sissonville, this county, told
friends she was going to Ohio, and left
them believing that she had taken up her
abode in that State. Little was thought
OF the matter for some time until it
was rumored that she had not been
seen OF heard from by any Of her
friends. Inquiry was set on foot, but no
news of her whereabouts was learned until
yesterday morning, when her body was
found in Poca river, having been cast up
by the recent high water in that stream.
4 coroner's inquest was held, as it was sus-
pec.ed there was foul play. Her brain
was examined, but DO evidence OF death
discovered from that source. Further ex-
animation showed that she might have
died from the effects Of an abortion, The
verdict of the jury had not been rendered
up to late hour last evening. There is a
great deal of comment upon the death and
probable cause.

The Great Disaster In China-pSGth of an
Old Ofici4L
SAN FRANCISCO, February 25.-The
steamer San Pablo has arrived from Hong
Kong and Yokohama. The China papers
announce the death of Gideon Nye, United
States Vice Consul at Canton. He was the
oldest foreign resident in China, having
gone there in 1888. He amassed fortune
of SC, 600, 900 and afterwards lest it all.
At the time OF his death he was writing q
history of China's relations with foreign
powers.
Smallpox continues to spread in Hong
Kong. About $50 deaths have occurred
during January.
THE GREAT DISASTER.
A few additional details are given Of the
second disaster at Yellow River, which
occurred December 4, and resulted in the
drowning of three Mandarins and four
Thousand Chiuese laborers. The men were
at work at the time repairing the damage
caused By the previous floods and two
thousand bamboo RATS had been laden with
stone 10 order TO form break-water, but
the RATS with all the workmeu upon them
were ergulfed as soon as they reached the
middle of the river Great suffering is re-
ported from the flooded districts. Cold
weather came on and the whole country
was soon flooded over, making it impOssi-
BILE for boats 10 reach the villages. In all
the large cities huts have been erected by
the authorities for the accommodation Of
THE SUFFERERS.
Between thirty and forty thousand are
being thus housed and fed in the city
of Chochiakin. The whole country is
sad spectacle, and stories of suffering and
destitution come from every direction. II
is estimated that twenty thousand stacks
of millet stalks will be needed to stop the
great gap, each stack requiring fifty large
carts TO bring it to the spot. So far the
utmost exertions have not succeeded III
collecting more than thirty stacks day.
Eight million taels have already been ex-
pended on repairs.
