THIITY PERSONS
LOST IN THE RAGING WATERS AT
WHEELING.
A Bridge Gives Way Throwing q Crowd
of People Into a swollen Stream
Houses washed Away Drowning Sew
eraI Families.

WHEELING, W. Va, July 20.-A terrific
rain storm, lasting an hour and q quarter,
prevailed here last evening, flooding cellars
along Main street and distributing debris
from the hillsides on many thoroughfares,
rendering them impossible. About ten
O'Clock, while number of people were
standing on one of the bridges of the y. &
o. spanning Wheeling Greek, watch
ing the swift flow of the wa
ters bearing wrecked shanties and
debris of all the lands, the bridge suddenly
gave way, precipitating all who were
standing upon it with the food The num-
Der of people who were on the bridge is not
known, the estimates varying from twenty
to thirty. Eight persons were rescued at a
distance of q mile from the point where
the bridge was located, and it is feared that
from ten to twenty persons have perished.
The city is intensely agitated over the
disaster and persons whose whereabouts can
not be zscertained are supposed to be
among the number.
At Caldwells Run, in the lower end OF
the city, four dwellings were swept away
by the food, and eleven persons drowned.
A young man named Honan, wife and
four children of Thomas Howley, three
members of the family of John Stencil, q
dairyman and two visitors at his house
are among those believed TO be drowned,
and it is feared there are more to be in
sluded in the number.

CHICAGO, July 2O.-Frank Chleboun, the
brown-haird, blue-eyed, sweetvoiced fiend
who, with John Hronek and Frank Chepak,
schemed to murder Judge Gary, Judge
Grinnel and Inspector Bonfeld, has made a
full and complete confession. Chleboun
was not locked up at the armory yesterday
as were the other two. and when Chepak
was taken to the central station and Hronek
to jail, Chleboun was sent to an outlaying
police station. He was not subjected as
were the others, to the ordeal of having
his picture taken for the rogues gallery.
Last night Inspector Bonfield. accompa-
operators. clad in workingmen's suits with
soft black hats and blue flannel shirts, Wis.,
tied the innocent-looking prisoner
The preceding day he had intimated that
he was ready to tell all he knew, and last
evening the inspector went to hear his
story. Through the interpreters Chleboun
went into the whole story from the first
meeting with Hronek and Chepak Hi,
confession was that Hronek had unfolded
his plans for revenge and had told Of q
bomb which he, Hronek, had invented.
1t was small, no larger than a base ball,
and was TO be loaded with dynamite and
bits of broken glass. 1t was denied by
Chleboun that the plot was to murder the
judges and inspector, that is, he heard of
no definite scheme. They were talked of
as was Captain Setback, and he understood
that he was to pay more attention to the
Captain than any one else. There was no
concerted plan of action, but it was agreed
that when all preparations were made
he and two others were to be informed
by Hronek just what they were to do in
the way of avenging the death of the mar
tyrs.
About July first he was visited by
Hronek, who brought him two bombs Of
1ae broken glass variety, and two sticks of
dynamite from which he was to make
bombs of gas pipe after the usual pattern.
The other two men were also supplied with
bombs and dynamite. He had the stuff in
his house for about a week, and then grew
so afraid that it would be discovered that
he made away with it by throwing it in .
privy vault.
This was the substance of the confession
which Inspector Bonfield placed in the
hands of typewriter for the purpose of
having it put in shape for use in court
The confession is much more in detail and
covers about thirty closely printed pages,
By his confession, it is understood Chel-
boun has virtually secured immunity from
prosecution. He is in reality much less
guilty then either Hronek, Chepak and one
of the men not vet arrested. He has agreed
twill corroborate the other evidence Sc
cured by the inspector against the con-
spirators.
The two other men are still at large but
may be arrested at any time.

DROWNED IN THE RAPIDS.
Six Canadian Laborers Lost In the Bow
River.

hfV0r.
WINNIPEG, MAN, July 20.-Nine men left
the camp of the Eau Claire Lumber Com
pany to begin their days work. They took
. boat forty-gve miles west of Calgary on
the Bow river and began descending the
series of rapids. They came TO a portage,
and carrying the boats half q mile, at
tsmpted to cress the Kanaskis rapids, q
short distance above chute of five or six
feet in height
When the boat got within three feet Of
the shore the hands attempted to stop her
by throwing . line around a stump on the
bank. They failed, the boat became un-
manageable, and swung around in the cur
rent, acquiring such q momentum that be-
fore anything could be done, she shot over
the fall like an arrow. In the leap over the
first chute she shipped only little water,
and the second fall was passed without
shipping any more.
The men were absolutely helpless and
unable to gain shore, for the boat actually
spun in the water as if she were top. She
kept in the center of the rapids until near
the third fall. Then one of the men
jumped out Of her and attempted to reach
the shore. The boat shot over the third
fall and landed plumb upon a Jagged rock
that barely showed itself above the water.
Two of the men managed to grasp the
smashed boat, and the other six were
swept under by the rush of waters and
were never seen again.
The wrecked boat. with the two men
clinging to it, was picked up four miles
down the river. The men who jumped
from the boat before she went over the fall
reached the shore in an exhausted condi-
ton.

statement. From Mr.. Br,c..

NEw York, July 2O.-Chairman Brice Of
the Democratic National Campaign CON-
mittee when questioned about the discus
sion introduced yesterday at the meeting
of the Aqueduct commission regarding his
connection with the contracts, said: "I
have no knowledge of the Acqueduct bus
iness. and am surprised that my name
should be brought into it Ny partner,
General Thomas, and myself several years
ago went on the bonds of Brown, Howard
d Co.. for few million dollars They were
intimate friends of ours, and the surety was
given as personal favor. We had no con-
nection with the Aqueduct then, and knew
nothing of its operations. Sometime af-
terward General Thomas told me that il
was necessary to take some action to pro-
tect our interests. A relationship was thus
formed between US and the contractors. I
have never known of just what character it
was, but was satisfied that it was suf-
ficient to protect us. have never had any
kind of interest in the Aqueduct contracts,
and my name is connected with them sim
ply because obliged an old friend.

The Marietta Centennial.

MARIETTA, o., July 2O-The fifth and
last day of the National Centennial of the
origin OF civil government in the West was
devoted to Ohio, the other states formed
from the old Northwest territory having
had their days when they were represented
by chosen orators. Governor Foraker pre-
sided at the meeting. and Senator Sherman
was the orator of the day. So Ohio was
represented by twelve OF its foremost men.
Senator Payne was TO have been here and
made speech but was kept at home by i'll
health. The attendance was perhaps
larger than on any previous day. In the
evening there was grand display of fire
works on the Muskingum river, and q

MICHIGAN DEMOCRATS
Meet In state Convention and Nominate
Tcket-Ptatform Endorse The "A.
ministratian

mtnistratio1.
DETROIT, July a.-The Democratic State
convention met here yesterday The plat
form adopted endorsed the adn,inistration
OF PRESIDENT Cleveland and pleoged to him
and Thurman the best efforts 70 the end
that Michigan might once more be enrolled
IN the ilst OF Democratic States; favored
Liberal pensions; demanded prohibition Of
ownership of real estate by foreign corpor-
ations and nonresident aliens and recon-
mended the appeal of all clasA Iegislat ton
and the enactments of laws proyidg for the
health and safety of those engaged in
mining. manufacturing and building in
dustries. sympathy was expressed with
Gladstone and ParneIl in their efforts to
promote home rule in Ireland and q de-
mand made OF Congress for the enactment
of laws opening to settlement all lands
granted to railroads or to other corpora
in upper Peninsula.
Upon the chief question of national
politics the relief of the people from bur
dens OF tariff taxation. We declare our
unaiterable opposition to the present tariff
policy of the Republican party. We Affirm
our approval of the last tariff measure of
President Cleveland as an accurate expres-
sion OF the Just and traditional Democratic
principles which should govern the whole
subject OF revenue reform, and the reduc-
ton of the surplus of the treasury.
We declare our adherence to the plat
form OF the National Democratic Conyen-
ton at st. Louis, and we approve Of the
action of our Democratic Representatives
in Congress in their effcrts to secure a re-
duction of tariff taxation, thereby pre-
venting the further accumulation OF .
dangerous surplus in the treasury and re-
lieying the people from the burdens Of a
war tariff
We belive that this result only can bring
the policy of the Government on this sub
ject in harmony with the constitution, the
true interests OF the people, the Just de-
mands of labor, the prosperity of all indus
tries. and the development of the resources
of this country. The platform was adopted
and there was long wait pending the ap-
pearance of the committee which had been
comforting by wire with the Greenback sAb-
committee at Grand Rapids. Finally il
came in with a report recommending that
the Greenbackers be gwen the Attorney
Generalship, Com missioner of the Public
Land Office and three Presidential electors,
Bartley Breen to be nominated as Auditor
General by both conventions. The report
was quickly adopted, and the convention
adjourned for supper.
At the night session Wellington r. Burt,
of Saginaw, was nominated for Governor.
NJ other name was submitted to the con-
vention. The remainder of the ticket was
made upon in this form: Lieutenant Gov
ernor, William B. Moran, of Detroit; secre-
tary of State, Thomas G. Hawley; State
Treasurer, John w. Norton; Superinten-
dent of Public Instruction. Stewart McKib-
ben; Member State Board of Education,
Charles King. At IL p. m. the eonventien
adjourned sine die.
