HARRISBURG, Pa, June 5-rhs mayor OF
Niliismspors, Pa, reports 10 Governor
Beaver that thousands or people IN that
city are homeless and in want, the flood
having carried away thsi- dwellings and
property. He says they badly need disin-
fectants, owing To the presence OF al kinds
OF Nth and dead animals in tho streets.
Tue loss in lumber alone, the mayor states,
will exceed g .o0o Geo The Governor hGa
telegraphed TO Mayor Filter, OF Philadel-
phia. and Mayor kennedy. OF Reading. 20
dispatch fsod trains TO Williamsport, and
in response to request OF the Governor
President Harrison has had similar train
started from Washington
WANT Az EXTRA SESSION
WASHINGTON, June 5.-The suggestion OF
an extra session of Congress for the relief
OF the Johnstown sufferers has been heard
in come quarters. The deep interest shown
by President Harrison in the National ca
lamity has caused the subject to receive
more attention than would otherwise have
been given it. Last year Congress appro-
priated 500. 600 for the benefit Of the yell
low-tcver sufferers in Florida, while few
wears earlier it set aside $4,000 for the
homeless people along the Ohio river.
Some members questioned the constitution
ality Of both proceedings, but they were q
small minority ii Congress were in ses-
| sion there would be no question OF its
promptness, yet TO call special session
| for the specific purpose OF making an ap-
preparation meets with some doubt as tC
its wisdom No similar session has beer
called in a century of National existencc
| bat there has been no such calamity as tne
JOhnstown flood in all the century.
