Weather and Growing Crop.-The weather
during the week has been very favorable
for the crop, in fact IL has been perfect,
with the exception in the Owensboro dis

too much rain ana cloudy weather, with
some cutting Of tobacco full OF sap,afd sun
shine greatly needed 10 mature the late to-
bacco. Accounts from Henderson are con-
ilicting. A correspondent Of the 19tn,wh
| consider perfectly reliable, says that
the late rain has done no harm
whatever but done good, bring
ing the crop out finely. There
was a slight frost last Saturday which did
no damage. There is a large proportion OF
fine leafy tobacco, and the small plants
have come out wonderfully. Two or three

In the upper Burey country the weather
was also very favorable for the crop. Doubt
less damage in some places was done by

who have returned from several counties
and seen through houses filled with the
crop, could neither see nor hear of any dam

DEVASTATION AND DEATH.
Fatal Cloud Bursts in Kentucky
and New York


LOUISVILLE, KEN, June l4.-At Bull
creek, six mics above Mayyille, Thursday
night, two dark clouds met aud burst. The
creek jumped from its banks and swept
several dwelling houses and their fright
ened occupants into the creek. The stone
culvert over the Chesapeake & Ohio rail.
road over Bull creek was washed into the
river and about II o'clock that night while
the storm was at it's hight, the westbound
freight ran into the washOut, causing fear
full wreck. The engine and nine cars were
piled one upon top OF another, almost out Of
sight in the creek bottom. Engineer Z. L.
Roadcap OF Greeuup county, Fireman Nor.
ris Honakcr OF Lewis county, and Brake
man Charles Eaton are buried beneath the
wreck and their bodies have not yet been
recovered. Conductor w. X. Watts and
Brakeman w. A Love jumped from the
hind car and escaped unhurt. The
engine is now out of sight in
ming over 30 miles per hour. A little later
an eastbOund mixed passenger train would
have passed over the fatal culvert, when
the loss OF life would have been appalling.
1t seems increditabe that so many cars
C onld be damned into 50 small hole as
there is at the culvert Two wrecking
trains have been busy all day removing the
debris. James Irwin had u portable saw
mill located about 800 yards up Bull creek
above the railroad. The clouds sudden v
bursting caused rapid rise in the creek,
already badly swollen by the storm.
Farmers say the creek rose two feet per
minute and the water looked like wall %
feet high when it got TO the railroad fill.
The sawmill was lifted from its fastenings
and with over 100 big logs hurled violently
against the railroad stone culvert. Huge
stones weighing several tons were Irricd
by the creek long distances. The creek
rose two feet higher than it has been in
40 years The fury of the storm caused
many persons on Bull creek TO abandon
their homes and take TO the hills, else the
loss of life would have been greater.
About a dozen persons living on the bank
OF Bull creek are reported drowned.
BINGmAMToN, n. Y, June IA severe
thunder storm and cloud burst deluged the
villages of Isle and Whitney's Point and
the neighboring country Thursday night.
AT ) p. N, the country was yelled in impen-
etrable darkness, and the rain descended
in terrifying torrents. The creeks aud
rivers became raging torrents soon after
the cloud burst, and the low lands were
quickly submerged. Considerable live
stock persisted and many small bridges
were swept away. In this city tho Che
mango river rose nearly II feet during the
night.
UTICA, n. Y, June IA. - The storm
through this section of the state Thursday
night did great damage to crops roads, and
bridges. AT Norwich II large portion OF the
town was flooded, and the water
the town that had never over
flowed before. AT Oneida the entire
eastern portion of the town was submerged
the water being four feet deep on the first
floors OF residences. Minor disasters were
humorous.

Reb ,llious japanese stuients.

An associated press correspondent writ
ing from Toxic, Japan, says that the eX-
element following depredations of the stu
dents OF Toxic has decreased little since
they apologized To Rev. w. lmbrey, the
New Jersey missionary who was cut by
them two weeks ago. That gentleman has
entirely recovered and it seems that moth
ing more is TO be heard OF the matter. The
foreigners feel outraged that the culprits
were not severely punished. AS the result
of their escape from any more than a sim
pie apology, the Soshi are becoming more
bold day by day, and the insults to foreign
ers are increasing. The sailors coming
from Yokehoma are armed with revolvers.

dents as u class but no incvility can be
offered them as individuals because Of
their desperate character.

TROUBLE COMING.
NOW THE CHEYENNE INDIANS
ARE PREPARED.
They Are Well Armed and the Set
tiers Weak.
The Usual Horrible Results May Be
Expected.

MILES CITY, MoST., June 1.-THE atti.
tude OF the Cheyenne Indians continues TO
DO IN enacing, though no overt act has occur
red since the killing OF Ferguson. Owing
TO the fact that the Indians have left their
reservation and are scattered over the
country in small parties, settlers are thor
oughy warned and are sending women and
children into town in large numbers In.
dian lookouts are on all high points and
constantly signaling by mirror flashes and
the blanket CODE Fifty Indians have re-
ported to the whites that there is TO be an
outbreak and that they are making medi-
cine, which is generally understood 10 moan
that they are going To be joined by allies
from the Standing Rock, Sioux and Pine
Ridge Cheyenues, TO whom messengers
have been sent The northern Cheyennes,
themselves, only number about 80 bucks.
AT the agency of the Rosebud, Major Car
roll of the First cavalry has three troops
of cavalry-about 40 men. Detachmea;s
OF u troop OF cavalry and three companies
OF infantry, 80 all told, left Fort keogh to
proceed up the Rosebud and cooperate with
Carroll. Three companies more at Fort
Keogh that could be sent out, but no trans
portation. In compliance with the request
OF the shorin OF this county. 100 rides and
10, 0OO rounds OF ammunition arrived here in
charge OF Col. Curtss, aide TO Gov. To DE
The sheriff expected tn It the arms would
be turned over TO nm for issuance 10 the
| settlers, but Col. Curtiss will not do so un-
| less in case OF a great emergency, which he
| is not satisfied exists now. 1t has been ar
| ranged for Col. Curtiss and Stock Inspect
or Smith to go TO the Cheyenne agency and
| confer with Major Carroll, and on their re-
| turn report the situation To the govern
| ment The Indians are all we'll armed
with Winchester rifles and government
| ammunition, while the ranchers and cow
| boys are unarmed. Calf branding and
roundups have been stopped entirely owing
to this fact. IL the indians could be dis
armed and put back on their reservation

| in the present condition of affairs there
seems nothing for them to do but to aban-

town. While nothing of more serious
nature may occur, it is quite probable that
any day may bring news Of an outbreak.

THE WOMEN HELPED.
The Columbus, o., Street Railway
Mems Strike.

COLUMBUS, o.. June l2.--The Consolidat-
eG street railway made another effort 10
start cars this morning ut 10 O'Clock and
the results and scenes enacted were SINH
lar TO those OF Monday. The cars had pro-
ceeded but few squares, where thous nds
had gathered, and the tracks were blocked
with stone and rubbish. One of the new
employees was driven off by threats of ar
rest for receiving money under false pre-
lenses. he had been fought by the strilS-
ers. The women took a big hand In stop
ping the cars. The mayor was present aud
ordered the arrest OF two citizens who were
blocking the tracks. The situation was
threatening, but no one was injured. Tho
employees at some OF the leading manutac-
tories closed down and turned out as soon
rs they learned the cars were started.
The object was to aid the strikers. The
company insists on protection from the
police. The mayor claims the police force
is inadequate and will ask for the military
if the demand is made by the street rail
road company The effort TO start the cars
was u complete failure, and is claimed by
the strikers as another in their series OF
victories.

SLAVERY AND CRUELTY.
Desperate Condition of People i'm
Upper Egypt.

upper Egypt.
LONDON, June l2-The European powers
% not seem TO be making much progress in
their professed object of suppressing the
slave trade, which is made the pretext for
Selling and appOrt!oning Africa. The Red
Sea trade in kidnapping children continues
TO flourish without any attempt being made
for its suppression. Several thousands OF
these children are kidnapped from Africa
every year and disposed of at various
places along the Red Sea, where they are
subjected TO terrible treatment. The fact
that there is no fertile territory TO be seized
under the preteXt OF stopping the cruel
trade in innocent and helpless humanity,
probably accounts for the circumstance
that England does not spare any of her i'm
mense meet for that object although the
British station at Alden is very near the
track OF the slavers. So far from sup
pressing slaNe~T along the st coast and
along the Congo, the system Is rather en-
couraged by the compensation paid TO slave
owners for the labor of their human chat
tells and the anxiedes OF the various Euro
pean raiders OF the trk continent 10 real
lie on their investments has made tn
trade in slaves more brisk than ever.
The most appalling accounts are received
of the sufferlngs OF the people in Upper
Egypt and along the scene OF the expedi.
tion for the relief of Gordon. 1t Is said
that the inhabitants, driven DESPERATE
by starvation, feed on e ,Ch other, while all
kinds or animals, however loathSome, are
eagerly sought for food. The wretched
people fight with each other for morsels,
and hundreds are perishing daily. Failure
of crops is said to cause this awful misery,
though the wars in which British ambition
for territory have prominently figured have
doubtless had their influence in causing the
failure of the crops. Indeed. IL is said that
the slaughter OF the male population left
the devastated region without sufficient
male labor TO raise the crops 1t Is also as
serted that at Sierra Leone and on the gol
coast generally the British officials bein z
practically irresponsible for their conduct,
are most brutal and tyrannical in their
treatment of the natives, who are tortured
and logged mt the will OF their white mas
tiers. Meantime, England is building a
number of gunboats for the work OF christ
ianizing Africa. The boats are of shallow
draft, so as to pass up the rivers into the
interior, and will be mounted with a subj
Gent number of cannon to impress the
natives with the advantages OF civilization.
