THOUSANDS HOMELESS.
Arizonians Suffer Great Hardships
From Overflow.

GILA BEND, AriZ., Feb. 23.-The sec
ond suspension of traffic on the South
ern Pacific railroad in Arizona occurred
Saturday afternoon. The water from
the Gila river overfloWed the track at a
point thirty miles east Of Yuma for a
distance of four or five miles, causing
considerable damage to railroad and
other property. Salt river, near Phoenix,
rose ten feet in an hour, sweeping away
many houses. Thousands of people in
the valley of Salt river are houseless.
The branch railroad running from
Maricopa to Phoenix is reported
badly washed out. The Colorado
river at Yuma threatens that place. A
large force of men are engaged building
dikes to save the town from overflow.
A San Francisco dispatch from Yuma,
Ariz., dated the 22d, says Yuma is en-
tirely under water. The river broke the
leyee this evening and s150,0O0 damage
already done. Gus Lee was drowned in
bed and large amount of live stock
perished. The river is still rising, and
if it continues will entirely destroy the
town. The railroad Office is under
water.
YUMA, Ariz., Feb. 23.-Loss of life is
reported from Gila valley, but no par
ticuIars have been received. The South
ern Pacific track is washed out for
twenty-four miles east of Yuma and is
five feet under water. One hundred
adobe houses have been washed down
and 300 people are homeless. Great
distress prevails for want of food, cloth
ing and shelter. A meeting was held

ASHLAND, Wis, Feb. 23.-After en-
during 113 hours of cold and privation,
Albert Vincent to-day made the first
filing in person on the Wisconsin Cen
tral railroad lands. The number of
mail filings which were received before
9 O. 'clock occupied the entire morning.
and until 2 o'clock in the afternoon the
line was entirely demoralized. Early
this morning only two or three of the
leaders retained their position. The
police afforded but little protection to
those in line, outsiders jumping over the
railing and ON the heads of the leaders.
The total number of mail filings
received were eighty-six, thirty
of which were soldiers declara--
tory statements, and the total of
mail and personal applications. III.
About half as many applications were
rejected as were accepted. The piece Sc
cured by Vincent claims to have 2,000.-
600 on it. Miss Knickelbine, who has
stood the trial so nobly, was the fifth to
file, and secured tract of eighty acres,
said to be worth about $4,000. About
fifty remain in line to file tomorrow.

for the Ohio river flood grows worse
to-day. In Covington the low lying
portions ara submerged, but none of the

have been stopped by the overflow, but
the manufactures are situated above

height of the flood. Parkersburg has
lost its gas and water, and is
in danger from coal famine.

DULUTH, MIMI, Feb. 23.-Hon. T. II.
O'ConnOr arrived in the city tonight,
and in a private meeting. at which sew
eral prominent lrishmeu of Duluth
were present, he spoke quite freely of
the situation in Ireland and Great Brit
ain as regards home rule. He spoke
substantially as follows: Il regard the
present divided condition of the Irish
people on the leadership of the Home
Rule party as very critical point in
the long struggle for Irish autonomy.
When the unfortunate events occurred
which brought about the division of
household against itself the Irish people
were within year, or possibly at the
farthest, within two years of securing
what they asked for. When was here
before, and the liberal spirit of
The American People
responded by the subscription of $50. 900
of 10000 toward the expenses of an cleo
4.on, the only element left was time to
secure majority of about ninety mem
bers of the next parliament in general
election. l have nothing to say
against Mr.. Parnell as a man, no more
than l am willing to honor him for the
grand work he has accomplished in the
past; but | do consider that it is uu-
fortunate for the Irish cause that he re-
solved to continue the leadership of the
Irish party after he virtually confessed
himself guilty of crime. His judgment
should have told him it was his duty to
step aside for the time being. He need
not have resigned his seat nor retired
from his party. His words would not
have had less weight in councils of his
party, where his political wisdom is
known and appreciated so we'll. Had
he merely become little less promi-
nent before the eyes of the Liberal
party in Great Britain,
Home Rule in Ireland
depends on support of Liberal party in
England, Scotland and Wales as we'll as
IN Ireland. 1t was only a few months
ago that the Liberal party stood with us.
but when the unfortunate circumstance
occurred and Gladstone called for Par
nellS withdrawal, a critical time for
him to put in practice his wonderful po-
litlcal wisdom had arrived, but he failed
to do so. We cannot do anything now
but support the Liberal party. Glad
stone represents three-fourthse of the
Liberals in Great Britain, and with them
his word is law. The great bone and
sinew of the Liberal party in England
are at his feet, because they recognize
in him the man who gave them suffrage
and did more than any man in the CEN
tury to Liberalize the English constitu-
ton. 1t is great bunder for Farnell
to belittle and jeer at Gladstone on every
OCCASION"
Mr.. O'Connor's plan here is to talk
with leading Irishmen and secure funds
to support majority of the Irish party.
He believes that in the end the cause
of Irish autonomy will triumph. He
leaves for Chicago tomorrow after
noon.

are being cared for. The loss to the
railroads is very great In the Ohio
valley not less than $4,000 men have been
thrown out of employment. This will
entail great suffering. A close
observer, who has passed through the
inundated district, estimates the loss at
$4,000, 600. Only two cases of drowning
are repOrted-W William Powell, who
lived near BenwoOd, and Harry West

and that another flood as great as that
of last week will visit this city. Both
rivers are rising rapidly.

BANCRoFT's BODY.
Remains OF Brown University's
Professor of Rhetoric Found.


PROVIDENCE, r. l., Feb. 23.-The
body of Prof Bancroft was found at an
early hour this morning in Dyer'S pond,
Cranston. The remarkable disappear
ance of Brown uniYerSity'S professor of
rhetoric and English literature occurred
Monday, Dec. s. 1890. He had not been
feeling we'll for some time, and Oh ariS
ing Oh the morning of that day COM
planned to his family of being very i'll
and wanting rest, He asked his daugh
ter to take walk with him in the sub
urbS, but on account of other duties the
young woman did not go. He was adj
qised by Mrs. Bancroft to go and see a
doctor, and not to attend to his classes
that day. He left home about $40
O'Clock, but did not go to the doctors,
nor did he go to the college. The.publica
ton of the mystery brought forth a
dozen or more stories. some of which
were extraordinary, many persons re-
porting that they had seen him in diff
ferent places.
Prof. Bancroft was about fifty-three
years of age. He graduated from Brown
university in 1859. For some time he
taught school in Massachusetts, and in
1868 was called to Brown. John Ouin-
cite and Leander Ouinette, carpenters,
who were at work in the vicinity of the
pond, discovered the body. John went
to the shore to break hole in the ice to
get water. About twenty-five feet out
from the shore he saw hat above the
surface of the Ice. The edge of the
pond was covered with ice sufficiently
strong to bear heavy weight. This
strip of solid ice extended about eight
yards from the shore, and from there
out there was a thin coating of ice to
the middle of the sheet of water, which
was open. John called Leander, and
they went out to the hat and found it
immovably fixed to the head of the pro-
fessor, and jammed down to the ears.
The body was in an upright position.
The town sergeant was notified, and he,
assisted by tile Ouinettes, drew the body
from the water. The sergeant at once
recognized the countenance, although 1t
was much swollen and somewhat
bruised by coiitact with the edge of the
ice against which the body had fOated.

Ing the petrifaction had only taken
place in portion of the body, while the
remainder had followed the course of
nature and returned to dust. One leg
was eight feet long, the thigh being
about four feet. A rib found measured
two and ,lf feet. Petrifaction is no
unusual thing in the bad lands of Mon
tana and the Dakotas. Wood in that
state is frequently found. The petrified

was found unconscious with blood flow
