CARLISLES TRIP SOUTH.
HE is NOW UNCERTAIN WHETHER
HE WILL COME.

Tho Intimation That Mckinley Might
Be Invited to Pay Later Visit Not
Liked by the Speaker in View OF
Certain Representations Made to
Him.
WASHINGTON, July 19-Tt is now quite
probable that Speaker Carlisle will abandon
his contemplated visit to Georgia 1t
would be difficult for him to get away from
his official duties i'll any event, and he
would not have promised to try
to do SO had it not been for
tho assurances given him that his
presence in Georgia at this time would
greatly strengthen the democratic party by
healing up the breaches made by the tariff
question. This assurance was given III the
letter which Henry w. Grady sent with the
invitation to tho speaker by the hands Of
Senator ColquItt, aud was confirmed by
tho latter. Speaker Carlisle said very
frankly then that he could not think %
gong for any other purpose than to solidlfy
he democratic party.
DOUBTS ITS VALUE.
The publication this morning. however.
of the fact that Mr. Grady afterward sug-
SN'tVA biub MI III tlllcJ Vi OtllO SuOuli7
be invited to come to tho Chautauqua meet
ing the week after Mr.. Carlisle for the pur-
pose of replying to him, leads the speaker
to doubt the value of the
assurance upon which he ac-
cepted the invitation rendered him.
10 be sure, no invitation has been sent to
Mr., Mckinley, but the very suggestion that
one should be sent, coming from the man
who declared that he desired Mr. Carls
to come TO Georgia in order that the demos
cratic party might be unified, causes sus-
picion.
HE MAY COME
The speaker may finally determine to
adhere to his original purpose and go to the
Chautauqua mcknight Salt Springs on
July 26 and make his address on taxation,
but If so it will be becau he is pursuaded
that his going will unite and not divide tho
democratic party. He would no more go
to Georgia as partisan stump speaker than
he would as curiosity. In view Of the
erroneous publication about tho matter it
should be stated that no invitation for Mr..
Mr.. Mckinley was ever prepared, and 50
1t is untrue that Senator ColqIitt withheld
it. He simply said, in reply to the suggesI
tlon from Mr. Grady, that Mr. Mckinley
might be invited to reply TO MIR. Carlisle;
that as the latter had accepted for the pur-
pose Of bringing the two wings of the demo.
cratic party in Georgia closer together, he
should oppose bringing Mr. Mckinley ia
Georgia to drive them further apart.

! Many Lives Lost and Inestimable
Damage to Property.

WHEELING, w. VA, July 15.-Particu-
lars of a sudden flood tonight show that it
is simply appalling, and everything Is in
such a chaotic condition that details must
be late. At $50 O'clock the Baltimore and
Ohio wooden bridge at May street was
swept away with from twenty to thirty

The Wheeling and Elm Grove railroad
was swept away for miles, and the road
covered with six feet of water
Across tho river the ruin is even worse
The storm lasted less than an hour, flooding
the streets from house TO house. The West
ern Union telegraph Office has foot OF
water ON the floor, j. w. Hunters spice
mills two feet, and other buildings on Main
and Market streets are as bad.
OVER THE STONES.
On the upper end of Eoff street, high on a
hill, in second the water was over the tops
of stones and like objects, and when 1t re-
Ceded, left sediment on tho stones.
Wagons in the valley of Wheeling creek,
were buried beneath mud and debris
The Chaplain and Eotf street bridges are
both gone and the Wood street bridge is
impossible. Nine persons living on Cald-
wells Run arc known to be drowned and
six houses on Caldwells Run are gone. The
hist will doubtless be increased.

roads are washed So rs to be impossible.
A substantial bridge on the Suburban
Elm Grove motor line at Leatherwood was
washed away. The loss in the city will
reach $50, 600, and tho damage to crops in
the country is inestimable.
A CLOUD BURST.
The ruin wrought by the cloud burst out
of town is awful, and can only be ascer-
tanned definitely when means of communi-
cation are restored.
Every hour or SO new fatalities are re-
ported.
A man named Kelt7 was washed away at
Boggs Run anddrowned.
Four lives were lost at Elm Grove, five

CHARLEsToN's RAILROADS.
The New Line to New York Eight,
Niles Shorter than the Present One.

The New Line to New York Eighty
Niles Shorter than the Present One.
CHARLESTON, S. c., July 10.-The first
pile for the bridge connecting Sullivans
island with the mainland was driven to-day
by Mayor Bryan, assisted by the mayors Of
Moultrieville and Mount Pleasant. The
bridge is to be built by the Sea View City
railway company, composed entirely Of
northern capitalists. The plan is to run a
railroad from Charleston, across Cooper
river, and thence through the villages of
Mount Pleasant and Moultrieville. There
are to be bridges across the Cooper river
and the cove separating the island from the
mainland. This will give rapid transit to
the island, and make Mount Pleasant the
Brooklyn of Charleston.
THE NEW ROAD TO THE NORTH.
1t is on the cards also for the PennsyI-
vania railroad to build a new coast line
from Norfolk to Charleston, via Whining
ton, n. c., to enter Charleston by the
Cooper river bridge Of the Sea View rail-
road. The Pennsylvania road has already
reached point forty miles south of Norfolk
and controls connecting roads TO Winning
ton. From Wilmington there is already a
charter for n road 10 Mount Pleasant, which
has been placed at its disposal. 1t is said
the work on the new coast limo will be-
pushed forward at once. It's completion
New York and Charleston, and will
place the two cities within twenty
hours travel. Crossing the river, the new
road will connect with the Plant system
here. The capital for the construction of
the Sea View railroad is in bank here, and
the new road is expected to 10 lii running

MILLS AWAITS A VOTE.
CONSIDERATION OF THE BILL
FINALLY CONCLUDED.

rs Fate to be ettled at l:3O O'Clock
To-Morrow Mornlng-The Majority
in Its Favor VIII Not Be Less Than
Eight and May Be Twelve,
WASHINGTON, July 19.-At 2:90 o'clock
to-day the great tariff debate began three
months ago ended, and Chairman Mills,
amid the applause of the democrats, an
noupced that he would ask vote upon il
at II o'clock Saturday morning.
Every democrat, except Mr.. Randall,
will be present OF paired at that hour. Re-
norts have been received from all the alb
sentees.
The republicans have also been drum
mug up their men, and they will also all
be epresent or paired.
Assuming as is now generally done that
M.,srs. Sowden and Foran are the only
democrats who will finally go against the
hu and that Mr.. Fitch of New York IS the
only republican who will finally vote orr
il the majority for the bill may be set down
as ten 1t will probably not be less than
eight nor more than twelve.
READY FOR THE SENATE.
The bill has been engrossed as its consid-
Grafton was carried on so that it will be
possible to deliver it TO the senate on Mon
day. The senate will then refer it to the
committee on finance, the republican mem
bers of which will then proceed upon the sub
stitute they are preparing. This substitute
it's now stated by the republicans, will con-
tain no more internal revenue reduction
than the bill, unless it should be finally de-
termined to repeal the tax on alcohol used
IN the arts It will also contain, according
to the republicans, as general a revision of
the tariff as the Mills bill. A so per
Der cent reduction in the sugar duties
Substantially the Dingley amendment voted
down in the house, and similar cut i'll the
rice duties will be the main tariff reduc-
tons. 1t is stated, however, by the repub-
leans that the Reductions i'll other duties
vii. average about the same as the average
reduction in the Mills bill A general
change from ad valorem to specific duties
is talked of and may be partially carried
out
SOME OF THE CHANGES.
Some duties are to be increased, for
example those ON fine cottons, while those
on coarse cOttOns are to be reduced. The
inequality between the wooden and worsted
duties is to be corrected. All the tariff
changes will be strictly on the protective
principle. The bill will pronounce for
reduction of about S6O,OOO,OCO. The bill is
to be ready, it is stated, by Aug. l. Two
weeks of debate will, it is thought, bring it
to a vote, and Sept l the fact that no
tax reduction bill can be agreed upon will
be demonstrated, aud congress can adjourn.

day went into committee of the whole,
with Mr.. Springer in the chair, on the tariff
bill, The pending amendment being that
offered by Mr.. Mills of Texas, restoring the
present rates of duty on tobacco.
Mr. LaFollette of Wisconsin thought the
motion made by Mr.. Mills was not actuated
by any sympathy for the domestic tobacco
industry. The amendment was offered, not
because Of any consideration for the indus
try, or because the farmers wanted protec-
ton, but because the amendment was neces-
Sary to help the democratic party to carry
Connecticut.
Mr. Baker of Illinois made a brief argu-
ment against the bill in its entirety. de-
carlng that the question involved was
whether the industrial people Of America
should be placed on a higher or a lower
plane
