DON'T BELIEVE THEM GUILTY.

What Prominent brotherhood Men Think
of the Alleged Conspiracy Case.
NEW YORK. July l9.-The World says:
There is only one feeling among the mem
bers of the Brotherhood Of Locomotive
Engineers in the neighborhood in regard
to the alleged dynamite conspiracy among
members of the Brotherhood in Chicago.
They are not willing to accept the fact
that either Hoge or Murphy or any Of the
Brotherhood officers are guilty, and many
men claim that the charges have been
manufactured by Pinkerton men to divert
public sympathy from the Brotherhood.
1.-THE sentiment is universal" said K.
Ross, an ex officer of Division los, of this
city, "that if the men are guilty they
should be punished to the full extent OF
the law, but we do not take any stock in
the dynamite story, and believe it has been
concocted by the company and detectives
to cast odium on the Brotherhood. With
regard to the Sal Soda and Emery circu-
lar, we do not believe it was ever issued
by Hoge, for the simple reason that any
man of ordinary intelligence must have
known that he was rendering himself liable
to the conspiracy law. If such
circular was ever issued it was
done by a person of small intelligence,
without the knowledge OF any committee
or of the officers of the Brotherhood. The
so-called confessions are evidently part Of
the scheme. However, if these alleged
crimes are proved to be true, the Brother
hood, through its proper officers, will see
that the parties are properly punished.
George w. Van Tsssel, an officer of
Division 145, of this city, and holding a
position of trust on the New York Central,
with which road he has been since 1863,
said:
1.-THE Brotherhood discountenances all
violence, and if the men in Chicago are
proved guilty of the crimes with which
they are charged, believe they should be
severely punished. 1t seems strange to me,
however, that the company has so recently
received both Hogs and Murphy to repre-.
sent the two Rrotherhoods if they were the
conspirators the company claims them to
he. From what l know of our men, !
know they condemn violence of every
kind. If they have grievances which the
companies refuse to hear or mend, they
strike, but that is all"
Many engineers were interviewed on all
the lines, and they unanimously Endorsed
the views already expressed.

The River ana Harbor BiII.

WASHINGTON, July 1s.-The conferees
on the River and Harbor bill have reached
an agreement, but have pledged themselves
to secrecy in regard to details. There is
reason to believe that the purchase of the
Green and Barren improvement remains in
the bill, but that its river proposition re-
lating to the Portage Lake canal is stricken
out. Both were Senate amendment.

A SAD CALAMITY.

r,o-s "a no knowing yet how sadly
Wheeling and vicinity suffered from yes
,s,d,v evenings totally unprecedented
,,,rm l, began a. ten minutes after six
and till about half past seven the rain came
down in solid, driving, binding sheets and
r..;s,Is-s torrents that swept the streets
c,.sr Of humanity and turned them into
rushing rivers full of all sorts Of debris
and extending in many places from house to
borss Never in so short time has such
an immense body of water fallen in this
.sc,ion In Twelfth street it would have
taken strong man to have kept his feet
N TIE rushing torrent of mud and water.
u,r5rs5s Of esllars were filled in . few
minutes.
Tbe saddest loss to Wheeling, and
which cast gloom over the whole city as
soOn a. the terrible news spread,
were the lives of many OF her
citizens. As soon IS the storm
ceased people swarmed to the banks OF
Wheeling creek, which had become rag
ING torrent. Ia a short while the middle
pier OF the B. & o. railroads trestle at the
dsDot ysye way with a crash and imuedi-
s.ely sixteeu.or seventeen people crowded
onto the now almost unsupported bridge.
II WAS undoubtedly wildly foolish act st
l,s.t, as the structure has for long time
been considered unsafe, and so 1T proved.
In half an hours time as the rushing waters
rose, the bridge suddenly gave way bike q
card house before the wind, and with the
people on it fell crashing into the sursing
mass of water below it and shot out into
the river. A cry of horror rose from those
who SAW the terrible disaster, but
were almos. powerless to assist the strug-
Cling people in the river. Of the sixteen
or seventeen people on the bridge ten had
been accounted for at the time of going to
press, leaving six or seven missing.
Added to this calamity is that which
occurred at Caldwelps Run, where two
whole families were swept away and other
persons also drowned, making the loss OF
life there ten, sure, probably eleven, and
possibly fifteen.
1t is long since Wheeling has suffered
such a calamity, and the earnest sympathy
of all are with the bereaved ones among us
Iu the country districts the storm was
more destructive to property, and the ag-
gregate loss, going rs Tar west asst. Clairs-
Vile, will very probably far exceed a half a
million Of dollars. At the latter city, loss
of life is reported. At Dellaire and Bridge
port the storm was especially destructive.
Scarcely q railroad bridge is standing with
in the area of the storm, which, however,
WIS not extensive, and seemed to go in
circle about Wheeling.
Ia this city the monetary loss was COM
paratiyely small, 81, 900 probably covering
it, the damage being principally in flooded
cellars At CaldwelPs Run it will amount
to probably $3.50
Considering the short time the storm
occupied it has never been equaled in
this vicinity, and we hope never to look
upon its like again.

AT MARTINS FERRY.
The Damage Done by the Storm In O
Northern Suburb,

The Damage Done by the Storm In Our
Northern Suburb.
Martins Ferry seems to have suffered
less than any other place in this vicinity.
The rain lasted there from half past five
till half past seven, and fell quite steadily,
but in lighter drops. Clsrk's Run in the
upper part of town turned out an immense
amount of stones and earth, covering the
@. & p. tracks to depth of several feet
for distance of two hundred feet. Just
above the Laughlin mill small culvert
became closged and caused the railway
tracks to be loosened. Hanover grade
soon became raging torrent, nd poured
forth onto the @. & p. tracks tons of
gravel and sand. Walnut street grade
also gave its full share of rubbish, and the
other grades amounts in proportion.
The trestle of the c., L. & W.
Railroad ut the Martins Ferry
keg and barrel factory was washed out
again as it was few days ago, and all
the streets in town with any grade at all
were more or less cut up. Quite mum.
ber of cellars on Hanover street and in
Clark's addition are flooded. The Han
over street sewer, through which Helling's
coal bank run passes, became clogged, and
the swollen stream was turned into West
Hanover street, along which IL flowed till
Sixth street line was reached, where It cut
off into the lots on the sides. Seabright's
run also broke from its banks and came
down across lots near Sixth street, and
added considerable to the volume of water
OF that fat. The bridge at the old Excel
sior Rink, on Fifth street, was carried
down over E. ]. Hoyle's lot and lodged
against another bridge in such Q way az
to dam up the water and almost food Mr..
Hoyles' cellar. The bridge near Capt. l..
W. Iuglebright's was lifted from iB
foundation, but fell back into place sgain.
At Ettnaville, the sewer which passes
through the town. became ciogged, and
turned its contents into the streets, food
ing cellars and doing much damage to
low lying property. In the country back
of Martins Ferry some fields are washed
cleaner than the public roads. Huge yel-
low streams could be seen flowing down
the hillsides, tearing the vegetation out
entirely,
Up THE RIVER.
At three o'clock . heavy storm cloud
passed around TO the northwest. This
must have struck Mingo and Brilliant, for
the local freight train on the G. & p. was
stopped ut Brilliant by the washout st
about that time. A passenger train fol-
lowing shortly after had to lay mp st War
renton, Tiltonville, Burlington and just
above Martins Ferry, while small piles
of rubbish were cleared away. The
storm seemed to grow lighter, however, -
it went up the river, and no great damage
is reported from above. Several bridges On
the new Burlington and Mt Pleasant pike
were waahed away, including several vesy
good and costly structures II was re-
ported Ii o. the county bridge scros Glenn's
run at the mouth of the run was the only
one remaining for two miles mp the run.

The New Ai.ulr Law

The supreme court has reviewed tho
liquor law which recently went into effect
and some OF its provisions are found to be
unconstitutional, while Others are shown
TO be inconsistent and imperfect
The court condemns arbitrary arrests
as for breaches of the peace, and
decides that unusual and excessive
penalties can not be enforced. The
court decides that local bodies cannot
reject bondsmen at discretion. The OBJ
jections pointed out, however, do not de-
stroy the statue, and with the exceptions
above noted, the law may be enforced.
The court says that Detroit cannot5police
the adjoining townships in order to en-
force the law.
