q wide area. Severe destruction Of prop
exty is reported from Loveland, Hamil-
IN, Milford and Batavia. Near the lat

were doubtless drowned. Covington,
Bellevue, Dayton and Newport, KY, had
10 houses unroofed and two persons hurt.
Thousands of acres of wheat, just ready
to reap, ere laid fiat, and the loss will be
great II Is safe to say that the loss in
Cincinnati and radius of so miles,
amounts TO 100000.

A Serious Charge Lodged AgainHt
HBm by a Clerk FUZZY isefMted.
kPHINaFIELD, ILL, dune l6.--ConBid-
cradle excitement has been oocasioned at
the home OF Congressman Springer by
the wide publicity given TO an affidavit
of Hylsnd O. Kirk filed with Speaker
Reed, charging Mr.. Springer with I'M
worthy motives in defeating Kinks claim
against the Federal government.
The only person mentioned in sub
stantiation Of Mr.. Kinks charge is Alex.
J. Jones of this city, ex United States
consul to Barrapqnilla, Colombia, and
TO merly Mr.. Springer's committee clerk.
Mr.. Kinks sffid syit Gays Mr.. Springer re-
ferred him to Mr.. Jones, his clerk, with
the statement that his measure was o
speculative one and II he expected favor
able action he would have TO SEQ Mr..
Springer's clerk.
Mr.. Kirk acted on this advice and when
he told Mr.. Jones that the chairman of
the committee had said james had said
''Did Springer tell you that 2 The robber
am getting sick AMI tired OF this Whole
out-throat business and will have moth
| ing to do with IT,"
Mr. Jones pronounces the story utterly
untrue in every particular and said: "The
author Of the affidavit evidently Supposed
that wss still United States Consul at
Barran9uilla, far removed from oablo
communication, and that before my
statement could reach the world his ma
licious charge would have worked ire
parable injury to Congressman Springer.
Nothing approaching any such CONVEX
sstion ever occurred. II is true that on
ons occasion elected Kirk from the
committee room for aseailing the charao-
ter OF two Republican congressman
Messrs. McKenna and LaidloN, and be.
cause they were not sufficiently active In
supporting his bill, but that Is all.
Mr.. Springer's character needs no
enconium of mine, but that my statement
may net be incomplete, will say that he
was against Hylsnd O. Kinks claim from
the beginning, has been for years and
this too in spite of the repeated threats
and attempted intinidations by the army
OF Warrington lobbyists that favored Mr..
Kirk'a claim

French Authorities.
HAVANA, June I6 Michael Eyraud,
the Frencbinan who was arrested here
May Goth for the murder in Paris on July
28th, 1889, of ii. Gouffs, court func-
tionary, was turned over to the French
detectives M. HI. Gailard and Soudain,
to- day.
At an early hour the Spanish police en-
tered the cell in which Eyrsud was con-
fined. When the prisoner knew the cause
OF tho visit he was surprised but offered
no resistance. He was manacled and
conducted TO the wharf, where the
steamer Lafayette WINS lying and was
there given in charge Of the French off,
GERS with whom he Conversed freely. He
frequently wept and complained of the
hardness OF the press, which, he said,
had no right to judge him until he had
been tried.
During conversation with reporter
Eyrsud said: You may say you have seen
me manRcled but nothing else. After this
remark II was noticed that the prisoner
appeared more cheerful and he laughed
several times. He said he would go
quietly to Paris but it is the impression Of
all who have come in contact with him
since he was arrested here that il he ID
condemned to death he will adopt every
meanshe can to take his own life. Eyr
was pale and hia dress was rather dirty.
1t was not necessary to put him in q
straight jacket as it was feared it would
be.
The French consul and the chief of
police OF this city were on board the
steamer when the prisoner arrived. The
consul expressed great obligation to the
Spanish government for the aid lent by
securing the return of the prisoner to
France.
The Lafayette with the prisoner on
board sailed for st. Nazaire this forenoon.
