proceedings were made public When
Mr.. Price and Misc Davenport began
about eleven years ago to discover that
an affection had sprung up between
them, he was her leading man and the
husband of an actress who played under
her maiden name, Emma Baker, Al
though Miss Baker was speedily con-
yinced that she had lost her husbands
love, she for long time refused to give
him his freedom 1t is believed she
finally received $500 to obtain divorce.
The relations of the couple were per
fectly harmonious until the beginning of
this year, when Mr. Price returned from
Paris, where he had gone TO make the
lnal arrangements for la Tosca. -
Soon after this, it became pretty gener-
ally known that they were living sepa-
rately, and, although Mr. Price contin-
ued to attendto the management of ''Ia
Tosca' during its run at the Broadway
theater, 1t was understood that this was
simply business arrangement. lmme-
dfately after the conclusion of that en-
gagement Miss Davenport instituted
divorce proceedings which we're not op-
posed by MIR. Price. 1t is reported that
all the profits made by Miss Davenport
and Price were equally divided. Miss
Davenport is now playing on the Pacific
slope There have been rumors that she
WAS likely again TO venture into matri-
mony with her leading man, Melbourne
Mcdowell, but these were strenaousIy
denied by Miss Davenport. Judge Dit
tenhoetfer WAS the plaintiffs counsel.

Eany Persons Drowned
The Terrible Effects of Floods
at Wheeling, W. Va.
DWELLING HOUSES AFLoAT.
The Occupants Carried INTO the Streams
and Drowned-A Bridge Gives
Way with Fatal
Results.

WHEELING, W. Va, July 20--A ter
rife rain storm, lasting an hour and a
quarter, prevailed here last evening,
flooding cellars along Main street and
distributing debris from the hillsides on
many thoroughfares, rendering them i'm
passable. About 10 O'Clock, while n
number of people were standing on one
of the bridges of the Baltimore and
Ohio, spanning Wheeling creek, watch
ing the swift flow of the waters; bearing
wrecked shanties and debris of all kinds,
the bridge suddenly gave way, precipi-
tating all who were standing on 1t into
the flood. The number of people who
were on the bridge is not known, the
estimates varying from twenty to thirty.
Eight persons were rescued at distance
of a mile from the point where the bridge
was located, and 1t is feared that from
ten to twenty persons have perished.
The city is intensely agitated over the
disaster, and persons whose whereabouts
cannot be ascertained are supposed to be
among the number. At Caldwell's run,
in the lower end of the city, four
dwellings were swept away by the flood
aud eleven persons drowned. A young
man named Homan, the wife and four
children of Thomas Hawley, three mem
bers of the family of John Stensell,
datryman and two visitors at HIS house,
are among those believed 10 be drowned,
and it is feared there are more to be in
cluded In the number.
The railroad tracks on both sides of
the river about and below the city have
been covered with debris from the hill
sides, aud bridges have either been
washed away or so weakened as to be I'M
safe. A large picnic party from the city
are on train on the Pan Handle be-
tween two washouts, and can not reach
the city. The track of the Elm Grove
railroad for two miles is completely
wrecked, with one bridge gone, leaving
at least 800 picniekers at Wheeling Park
who must walk home. On the Ohio
side great damage has been done, though
sc far no lives are reported lost. Much
damage is reported from the Wheeling
Creek Coal works, many dwellings in
the creek bottom having been washed
from their foundations and only saved
by colliding with the boundary fence.
Myron Hubbard of the firm Of Hub
bard 81 Paul, wholesale grocers, is sup
posed to have been drowned, as he was
on the wrecked Baltimore and Ohio
bridge when it fell. No street cars are
running, on account of bridges which
spanned CaldwelI's run in the city hav-
ing gone out. The storm was the most
severe known here since 1866, being ac-
by heavy hail and vivid light

AN AWFUL DEATH SCENE.
The Steamer Fulda Runs Down Fishi,
Boat-The Crew Drowned.

The Steamer Fu1da Runs Down Fishing
Boat-The Crew Drowned.
NEW YORK, July 20.-The North Ger
man Lloyd steamer Fulda, which arrived
from Bremen, encountered dense foCs off
the bank. The steamer was running at
half-speed. Suddenly a lookout cried
Ship ahead" but the warning came toe
late. The air was suddenly filed With
frantic shouts, which caused all the pas
sengers of the Fulda to leave the break
fast table and rush excitedly to the deck.
An appalling sight met their gaze.
Directly in front of the steamer was
fishing schooner lying at anchor, calmly
awaiting the fatal blow. The engines of
the steamer We're reversed, but the time
was too short to check the momentum.
An almost impereeptible shock soon fol
lowed, and the sharp bow of the Fulda
went right through the frail fishing
schooner, seyering her. The work of de-
struction occupied only few sec
onds. The scene that followed
Peggars description. The hardy
fishermen loudly shouted the cave
Maria,h while some of them frantically
endeavored to climb up the steamers
side, but slipped back into the water be-
fore assistance could be given them,
While the steamer swept through the
schooner twenty or thirty of the fisher
men could be seen rushing from the
cabin to the deck of the sinking schoon-
er. They sprang into the rigging, vainly
endedvoring to escape an almost ineyita-
BILE doom. Before the agonizing eyes OF
the Fulda's passengers the little schooner,
now cut in two, with it's crew clinging
to the riggiag, suddenly disappeared.
The mist cast an impenetrable covering
over the wreck of the unfortunate fish
ermen, and it can not be said whether
the whole crew persisted. The passen-
gers on the Fulda who witnessed all this
say that to their dying days they will
never forget the awful picture of death
which was shown te them for those few
minutes, and was then shut out forever
by the curtain of fog.
As soon as the Fulda could be brought
to standstill Capt. Ringk turned
around, and Tor over an hour searched
for the wreck and its victims. The fog,
still dense, refused to disclose them, and
reluctantly the officers of the Fulda re-
sumed their voyage. The officers said
the wrecked fishing smack was large
two-masted schooner of the regulation
style of the bank schooner. AS far as
could be observed she carried sixteen
dories, which were hoisted on her decks
when she was struck. Her sails were
furled, and only the lookout and a few
other men were on deck. The fate of
the men is unknown.
