ANOTHER VISITATION.
Terrible Floods in West Virginia.
Houses and Bridges Carried Away and
Whole Families Drowned.
WHEELING. W. Va July

WHEELING, W. Va, July l9.
terrific rain storm this evening hoode,
cellars distributing debris on the thorough
fares rendering them impossible. The bridgs
of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad spannin,
the Wheeling river, gave way, precipitatins
twenty TO thirty persons into the river
| Eight were rescued. II is feared that ten Il
thirty persons perished. At Caldwelfs run,
the lower end of the city, four dwelling.
were swept away by the food aud clever
persons drowned. A young man named
Holan. the wife and fve children of Thos
Hawley, three members of the family Of
John Stencil a dairyman, and two visitors
at Stenzelrs house are among those believed
to be drowned
Water Rises Eight Feet in so Minutes
Later reports of the food show it to be
simply appalling At $50 the B. & o. wood
en- bridge at Main street, was swept away
with from twenty to thirty people on, it, of
~hom ten were saved.
The river arose feet in 80 minutes. The
Wheeling and Elm Grove K. r., was swept
away for miles and the road covered with six
feet of water. Over the river the ruin is
even worse.
What the Receding Waters Left.
The storm lasted less than an hour, flood
ing the streets from house to house. The
Western Union had foot of water on the
floor, J. NJ. Hunters spice mills two feet,
and other buildings as bad. On the upper
end of Goff street, high on the hill, the water
was over the tops of the stoves. When it
receded and left sediment on the stoves.
The wagons In the valley of Wheeling Creek
are buried beneath the mud and debris. The
Chaplain and Goff street bridges are both
gone, and Wood street bridge is impossible.
Nine persons living on Caldwell's run are
drowned. Six houses on. .Caldwelrs run are
gone.
The list will doubtless be increased. The
Pttsburg, Wheeling and Kentucky division
of the Pittsburg Cincinnati & st. Louis divi-
sionis badly washed at places and at others
covered a foot deep. The Ohio river trestle
at Creek is gone. The sewers burst in sew
eral places and the roads are washed out SO
as to be impossible.
The substantial bridge on the suburban
Elm Grove Motor line at Leatherland wash
ed away. The loss in the city will reach
$50, 900 and the damage to crops in the coun-
try is inestimable. The ruin wrought by the
cloud burst out of town is awful, and can
only be ascertained definitely when means of
is restored. Every hour or
SO new fatalities are reported. man
Kelts was washed away and he and his horse
drowned. -Four lives lost at Elm Grove.

The Democratic Utllity state.

sPbiiAdephia
The Democrats of Indiana have at last become
resigned 20 the position which the Democrats of
the country have been forcing them into for
many years For about the first time in gen
GRAFTON they have concluded not TO have
ddafe for President and yet one of the men
whom they supported for the nomination for
little while in the last convention is still living.
The position will be q novel one for Indiana,
and the Democratic chestnuts of that State
who have been warmed time after time
will hardly know how to in the new situation
They will present candidate for Vice president,
however, and nothing else.
There is evidence in this that the Democrats
or Indiana are learning something. They have
heretofore involunsarily supplied what smart
Vermont Democrat called sthe Western utility
man" for the second place the ticket In
1876 they sought the nomination of Thomas A.
Hendricks for President, and after they had
failed the delegation from that State refused to
respond while nearly every other State was
voting for Hendricks for Vice-presdent In
1880 Hendricks's nomination for President was
again sought by Indiana. and, failing again,
Indiana accepted the nomination for Vice -presi-
dent and in q spirit of i'll humor helped the con-
vention m AXE mess of it by nominating Will
lam HI English. In 1884 Indiana, tired of fail
ing with Hendricks. brought forward Ex-Sena-
TOR Mcdonald. who had a very brief career in
the convention, for the gallery crowd compelled
the substi tuton of Hendricks's name. The con-
vention. however. did not want an Indiana man
for President. The New ork man, as usual.
was nominated, and Hendricks and Indiana got
the vice-presidency.
And SO Indiana has at last accepted the
Tabllshed policy or the Democratic party and
will now voluntarily furnish utility men for
nomination for Vice-president. If it has any
! thing like the experience of the past the po-
sition now taken will prove unfortunate. AS
the State has heretofore secured the second
place by seeking the first it may prove that in
andoning its old time methods and seeking
! the second place 1T will get nothing There
plenty of candidates for Vice president scattered
through the departments at Washington Al
most every Western State has &C least one, and
Illinois has enough TO keep the Democratic par
ny in candidates for eighty ninety years.
But Indiana will be there. and when it comes
to precedent will have all the claims. A Demo-
cratic presidential ticket without Indiana
at the tail would look unnatural that
Democrats this side of the would not know
how TO vote It. There is where Indiana will
probablY nave q Tremendous advantage.

Indoraing Fraud.

TT Wayne Gazette.
The indianapolis Sentinel of yesterday made
futile attempt to contradict the facts bro ught
60 light by the Indianapolis Journal in regard
TO the confirmation of the old eleetiou inspectors
by the Marion county Board of County Commits
sioners. There is no further evidence needed
that the blow hit q spot. The Sentinel
talks about it being disreputable journalism to
refer TO such matter, but it refrains from
calling Coyism disreputable, or saying one word
in condemnation of the methods of Marion
county Democracy, which have been VIGOROUSLY
in the hands of criminals. Even If all the Sem
tinel claims in regard TO the appointment of the
inspectors were true that is. that they were
appointed year ago. and only confirmed now,
they were still appointed after the election
frauds over which they presided had be-
come notorious Whatever little doubt
there may have been in the minds of the per-
sonal friends to the individual guilt of Coy
and Bernhamer, there was doubt whatever
that the fraud had been perpetrated, and should
have been detecEed by the election inspectors.
They we're VIGOROUSLY unfit for the holding of
their positions again. and the fact that they
were reappointed at all, shows that it is the de-
hberate intention of the State Democracy to up
hold the fraudulent methods of which Sim Coy
is the chief representative IL is driving respect
able people out of the Democratic party in In
diana every day. and in Ohio also. The policy
makes the party RESPONSIBLE for the crime of
thwArting the will of the people. and it will de-
stroy the Democratic party utterly if il be ad-
hsred to. 1t has already cost that party in
huences that in their turn deprive Democracy of
all hope Of carrying Indiana this fall.
