A MOUNTAIN CLouDBURsr.
The Town of Genoa Nearly Swept Away
by a Flood.

The Town of Genoa Nearly Swept Away
by Flood.
CARSON, New, July 25.-A thunder
storm Friday afternoon came near WIN
ing out the mountain town of Genoa.
About O'Clock cloudburst took place
near where big snowslide occurred
years ago. In few minutes a terrible
flood OF water came down three separate
cafions, sweeping everything before it.
When the first alarm OF flood was given
women and children hurried to safer
quarters through the rain, carving
babes in arms. From Genoa canon the
water rushed down in single breast
twenty feet high, carrying logs and
boulders in wild confusion. 1t struck
@. w. Dake's undertaking shop and
swept it like log 200 yards into Gray's
fields. A large stock of coffins foated
off in the field.
The water made clean sweep from
Snowslide canon, leaving the rocks bare
and dashing over the base OF the noun
tain. q. w. Dake saw the water come
out and says that when the stream from
Snowslide canon struck that from Genoa
canon, the water shot up into the air
fifty or sixty feet. The water from Genoa
canon rushed down with rocks and logs
and covered Mrs. Raycroft's fine young
orchard, potatoes and vegetables which
was devastated by the snowslide of
1882. 7. N. Hansen's pasture lot was
covered with immense boulders and to-
tally ruined. L. Fray is the heaviest
loser of all. His large flume was en-
tiiely swept away from the mouth of
Genoa canon. Dozens of logs, some
sixty feet long, and three feet in diam
eter, were carried across the road and
200 to 300 yards down into the field.
The rocks and debris cover much of the
finest meadow and grain land and de-
stroyed the crops thereon.

VAN HORNE AND DEPEw.
Ranored Objects of Their Simultaneous
Visit to London.

ToRoNro, Ont, July 25.-A cable from
London says: The sudden arrival OF
President Van Horne, of the Canadian
Pacific railway in London, coupled with
the fact that Chauncey M. Depew is
also here, attracts attention in city
circles. The official statement is made
that Mr.. Van Horne is only here on
strictly private business, but the belief
in many quarters is that the result OF
his visit will probably be seen in large
financial operations.
MONTREAL, July Pa cable from
London says: Canadian Pacific and
Grand Trunk stocks are buoyant ON
account of the rumored objects of the
visit to this city of Messrs. Van Horne
and Depew. 1t is now believed that
an actual fusion OF the two roads is
not practical, although it is generally
thought that a friendly traffic arrange
ment will be arrived at, provided the
Grand Trunk adopts pacific attitude
towards the Canadian Pacific.

LIBERAL VICTORIES.
The Tory Press Admit the Seriousness
of the Situation.


of the Situation.
LONDON, July 25.-The Tory press
concede that the recent Liberal victories
greatly menace the union cause. The
Times, commenting on the result of the
Wisbrek parliamentary election says:
'This defeat is the worst the Unionists
have sustained. Gladstone has at last
obtained an argument in support OF his
predictions of Liberal success at the gen.
eral election. The reverse is not due to
popular adoption of home rule, but
rather to the Union Liberals withdraw
ing their support from the Conserve
tives, under the belief that the time had
come when they can again exercise free
dom of choice in politics.
The Chronicle says: 1.-THE result is
due to the Conservative candidate
adopting protection cry. The laborers
recognize that protection for farmers
will not increase their wages. They
voted for the Gladstonian candidate, be-
lieving that radical measures had better
be entrusted to radical government"
The Daily News is jubilant, and says
the result is proof that the country gen.
orally is waiting to reverse the decision
of 1886.

An Oregon Man Claims to Be Cousin
of the Actress. -
PORTLAND, July 25.-A special to the
Oregonian from Pendleton, Or, says: ::
Pendleton contains nephew of the fa-
nous sensational actress. Sarah Bern
hardt. The most interesting feature of
this fact is that the nephew, j. H.
Keebles, has just discovered his relation
ship, and that the discovery leads to the
history of the illustrious Sarah's origin,
differing materially from that given in
her biography. He claims that her true
name is Sarah King and that che is an
American girl. Her father, Dingley
King, was OF French and Jewish descent
and plasterer by occupation, living in
Rochester, N. Y. Sarah's mother was
dead, and she and the other children
lived with an aunt, the fathers sister,
Mrs. Mary Finneld, near Rochester.
One day remark displeased Sarah and
she left the house and never returned.

SAN Francisco, July 25.-The credit
ors OF the tramp steamer West Indian,
which left here Wednesday for Chile,
have presented claims against the cargo
aggregating about $2500. Gilbert Glenn
ents, agent for the vessel, states that he
has no money wherewith to meet these
claims, but that they will probably be
settled by the owner of the vessel, Mr..
Boarman, who is expected to arrive from
Liverpool in few days. 1t is stated
that Captain Settler, of the West In
dian, believed all bills paid before the
steamer left.

No Political Significance Attached to the
Affair-A Prayer Book Filled with
Deadly Explosives-The
Talk of Paris.A
Associated Press Dispatches.

PARIS, July 25.-It became to-
day that an attempt has been Ito
assassinate Nine. Carnot, wift9s s Ae
president OF the French republs VI
received package from ToulonS N. ss 4 4
contained what appeared to be RS IA
Catholic mass book. Upon an exa
alton of this present, its leaves aA
emily were stuck together with
nish or mucilage. This caused
more careful examination to be n3
and it was found that the interior OF eissss
book had been cut away after the man
ner sometimes adopted by smuggIers,
and the book filled with a powerful full
inmate powder. No clue, according to
the police, has been found to the sender
of the internal machine, although the
postoffice and police authorities of Tou-
Ion are said to be on the track OF the
perpetrators OF the outrage.
There is no reason known for this at
tempt on the life of Nine. Carnot. and
the conclusion is that the would-be
assassin really intended to take the life
OF the president, and supposed that the
package addressed to Nine. Carnot
would be carelessly opened by the presi-
dent, while a package addressed to him
self might be carefully opened by an
attendant. OF course this is only
theory.
The report Of the ATTEMPTED assassina-
ton is the talk Of Paris, and has caused
considerable Indignation. Some people
think that this alleged attempt upon
the presidents life, with the recent de-
feat of the French government in the
chamber of deputies, the Boulangist
agitators, the Alsace-Lorraine passport
regulations debate and other similar
matters have some connection, but it
would not be surprising if the whole
matter turn out the work of dangerous
lunatic

THE appropriation for the pension Of
fee is about exhausted and large force
of clerks was dismissed last week be-
cause there was no money to pay them.
Two years of Harrison's administration
has demoralized the surplus that Cleve-
land left in the treasury. -Adcoeate.
If the appropriations made by the re-
publicans in congress, against the OPP
position of the democratic minority,
have at last come into the hands of the
deserving veterans, then the pension
department has fulfilled its office. Mr.
Harrison's administration has not been
in vain If the stipend which Mr.. Cleve.
land denied, has been meted out to
worthy veterans. Cleveland vetoed
such bin, and many private pension
bills, believing no doubt that when he
hired substitute he squared himself
with Union soldiers. Mr. Harrison ha.
carried out the viii of the people ant
fulfilled the pledge of Lincoln so far a,
lies in his power TO do. All through tn,
country examinations are now being
made and sufficient force is retained
IN the pension Office to pass upon claims
and allowances arr made daily. IL
speak OF the surplus pension appropria
tions left by the Cleveland administra
tion Is mockery.

THE last democratic congress WIS oc-
cupied with party strifes and discord,
jealousy and contention to the exclusion
of the country's business. Its attempts
at legislation were in the direction o. a
free trade tariff bill, but that was never
matured. BY the aid of misrepresenta-
ton and fraud another democratic con-
gress was created and is in existence to-
day, though it will not convene till next
December. There is no reason to sup
pose that it will be an improvement up
on that one of which it is prototype.
II it is possible to suppress the party
wrangles and act unanimously it will
adopt and work under Reed rules

nounced them Unfortunately. Re,

THE Nebraska legislature has before
it bill to repeal the law granting a
bounty of two cents per pound on beet
sugar. Under the promise of the boun,
ty at least one immense factory has been
established in the state and others are
contemplated. They will prove of great
benefit to state that has severe need
of some diversity in its interests. But
the proposed action of the legislature
will put sudden stop on the prospec-
tive plants and cripple the one already
established. 1t is impossible to under
stand the antics of the present legisla-
ture. Without responsibility to parent
age or utilization it is occupied in max
ing record that for novelty is without
precedent or parallel. 1t isn't likely
that the people of Nebraska will have
need for more than one legislature OF
