woLesLEY.s DISCLAIMER.

The Adjstsnt-General q the Dritish
Army Disclaims. In tho House Of Leras,
Any Intention Of Casting . Slur Upon the
Government-Lords Salisbury Replies.
LoNDox, May l5.-The House Of Lords
was crowded with peers, commoners and
visitors last evening to hear General
Wolseley reply to the attack made upon
HIM by Lord Salisbury. Mr.. Gladstone,
Lord Randolph Churchill and Mr.. Stan.
hope, Secretary for War, were attentive
listeners. When Lord Salisbury made
his appearance in his seat, Lord Wolseley
rose to q personal explanation with re.
gard to the Premier's charge that he
(Wolseley) had attacked the govern.
ment, He was unable to see how any un.
prejudiced person could construe his re.
marks into an assault upon the govern.
ment. He could not honestly assail the
government, for he was aware that Mr..
StanhOpe was endeavoring to rem
der the army efficient. Still, he
felt that great deal more might
have been done in that direction
than mad yet been accomplished. He ad-
mitted that the present government had
done much to strengthen the defenses,
but declared that he would stand by his
banquet speech, to which the Premier had
taken exceptions. Further, he saw that as
long as the nGvy remained as weak as it is
now, the army couldn't hold its own, dis
persed as it is over the world. II ter
thousand men, properly handled, should
land on any part Of the English coast.
there was no reason why they might not
take possession of the country. He was
fully aware of the responsibility he in.
sv, tot he
felt impeled to make it. After reading
Lord Salisbury's speech on Satur-
day, he had felt tempted to resign i'm.
mediately, but he now placed himself in
the hands of the Premier. He had no in.
tentiOn to cast slur upon the govern.
ment, and had earnestly endeavcred to
serve his sovereign and his country.
(Cheers.l
Lord Salisbury said that while holding
his structures upon Lord Wolseley's
statements as having been entirety war
ranted, he accepted his disavowal Of any
intention to assail the government. he
hoped that if Lord Wolseley had occasion
to assail the Administration in the future,
he would do so in the House. He trusted
that Lord Wolseley would not take the
matter too seriously. He paid high trib-
ute to General Wolseley's military skill,
and would regret his resignation as a
great blow to the military administration.
The Duke of Cambridge said that though
occasionally Lord Wolseley and himself
disagreed, they did not quarrel. Discus
ION of these matters in open house be-
tween the Commander-in-C Chief and the
Adiutant-General, would, he thought, be
highly detrimental to the public service.

THE shy LeveE BREAK.

The Work of Years Destroyed BY the Ror
sistless Force Of the Mighty Waters
Thousands of Acres of Growing Crops
Washed Out - Railroad Tracks In
Danger-Many Families Driven From
Their Homes.
LOUISIANA, No., May 15-The great
break in the Sny levee continues to grow
wider, and the mighty Mississippi con.
tinues to pour its merciless waters into
the fertile basin known as the ''Sny Bot
TONI, WI ecking homes and destroying the
toll of many years. The break occurred
at about the center Of the levee, SO that
the upper portion will be comparatively
uniniured. All day yesterday the crack
Of the whip and the calls of the horsemen
could be heard all over this portion of the
bottom as they galloped after the fOcks
and herds quietly grazing in the green
pastures. entirely oblivious of the i'm
pending danger. The greater portion OF
the cattle were driven to the bluffs, while
at least thousand head were brought to
this side on the steam ferry-bOat. The
Sny bottom contains about one hundred
and ten thousand acres of fine farming
land, of which seventy five thousand acres
are in wheat and corn. At low estimate.
fifty thousand acres in crops will be Ell.
Vlrely DESTROYED,
Houses will be greatly injured by the
water, and the seeds OF disease planted
in once happy homes. The question Is
asked, Why don't the Government take
bold of these levees and prevent wreck
and ruin to farms and homes: The great
trouble is that individuals do not build
the levees strong enough. They have not
the money TO spend in proper construc-
ton. The water is just now making Its
appearance in the low places opposite this
city, but in two days the whole surface OF
the green valley will be covered. As the
water comes down against the Chicago &
Alton railroad embankment, it will
require tons OF riprap and hundreds
OF sand.bags to stay its encroach-
ments. The company is mindful
Of the danger to its roadbei, and has a
large force Of men constantly at work
Strengthening the entire roadbed across
the bottom. An order was sent out this
morning to have all the skIffs in reaai-
ness to go over at moments notice. The
probability is the roadbed will stand the
test, as it did in 1881. After the break os
yesterday the water in the river began t0
slowly receda. but is now at standstiii.
The low places in the city are submerged
and some families driven from theii
homes. The track OF the ST. Louis &
Keokak railroad is submerged in places,
so that trains have TO be abandoned.

HANNIBAL No. Nay l6-The terrible sus-
pense in which the people Of the sny levee
have lived for the past six days and nights
IL over. At $3.50 yesterday morning the
whistle Of the Hannibal bridge sounded the
dread alarm which Thousands Of people had
expected to hear at any time yet nope
would never come. The levee had broxen
at point tine mile above the bridge The
news was conveyed to the city and spread
with great rapidity. and soon hundreds OF
people ~ere hasteuing to the ferry seeking
Transportation to the scene OF the break.
Whendsylightc came hundreds more climbed
the blu6s above the city to witness tae
work Of the destroying element as it tore
its way through the fertile fielis Of grow
ing grain.
All night long the men at work on the
levee had struggled desperately to keep
back the advancing water, but each hour
the evidence became more apparent that
their toll would be in vain. At four O'Clock
the steamer Gem City passed down by the
levee and the swell caused by her wheel
washsd over the top of the embankmeHt
carrying away the loose earth placed on top
to KEEP the water back. The increased
force soon deepened aud wldened the way
for the waves aud IN few moments great
pieces OF earth gave way and fell over in.

The men dropped their shovcls and fed
in dismav. A rush OF waves followed and
with mighty rcar q wall Of water plunged
through the crevasse, and, advancing east
ward across the farm Of A. ]. Stilwell,
turned to the south and commenced the
awful work of destruction. The water
spread rapidly over the bottom lands and
5000 the 4O.OOO acres not submerged by the
break Of Hurpsy's bay on Monday were
under water. The total 10 now reaches

The effect OF the inundation on the Sny
farmers will be ruinous. Several THOUSAND

No loss of human life has occurred, but
hundreds OF horses, cattle and hogs have

The official notice OF the action OF the
United States Supreme Court in the case
will then be issued to the Supreme
Court of Missouri, from which the case
was appealed here. This will be in the
usual form of a mandate. and it will be
sent to Attorney-Generai Boone. 1t viii
merely state that the defense came before
the Court with an application for a writ
of error; that the Attorney-General Of
Missouri moved TO dismiss the applica-
ton, and that this motion to dismiss was
sustained. That threw the case back to
the Supreme Court OF Missouri. and it is
left with the judges of that court to fix
the date for the execution as soon as the
mandate is received. 1t is probable that
the mandate will issue and be sent west
n time to reach the officials of the Mis-
souri, Supreme Court at Jefferson City
next Monday morning.
