GROWTH OF THE ARGENTINE

A Wonderful Development Of Resources
but the National Debt tho Most Won
derful OF All.
A statistical summary of the growth
of the Argentine republic since 1851,
shows that in thirty years the popula-
ton has increased from 1,35O,000 to
100000, and the number OF acres in
cultivation from 100000 to 1000, 900.
In 1861 the only railroad in existence
was from Buenos Ayres to Merlo, a dis
tance of eighteen miles. Now there are
over 5000 miles of railroad opened to
traffic, and 5000 in course of construc-
ton. Commerce and the national wealth
have multiplied five times over within
the same period, and the public debt
has increased in much greater proper
ton. 1t was $17, 600, 900 in 1861; In 1890
it was $4O1, 900, 900, exclusive OF cedulas
and the paper currency, which would
raise it to S613, 900, 900.

sWnPT AWAY.

The Fate Of the Town q MoSfile, Is.-.
The Damage is wlde-spresA In That
State by the Flood. ,f ~,
The flood in the Floyd river, which
came past Lemars and Merrill, Ia,
Wednesday, and did great damage in
the country, reached Sioux City early
Thursday morning. The river rose
twelve feet. One hundred and fifty
houses In the valley are partially sub.
merged, and the families have moved
out to the hills. The large stove works,
shoe factory, flour mill and foundry in
the suburbs of the towns are closed.
No loss of life there. A man in from Mo-
Vile, eighteen miles east of Sioux City,
reports that the whole town was swept
away, and only one house was untouch-
ed. Advices received at the Chicago and
Northwestern railroad in Chicago,
Thursday morning indicate that the de-
struction by the cloud-burst in North
western Iowa Wednesday is more wide
spread than the news dispatches thus
tar received suggest From the damage
to its lines actually reported to the
road, 1t appears that the deluge COW
ers at least portions Of the counties
of Sioux, UBrien, Clay, Plymouth,
Cherokee, Buena Vista, Woodbury.,
Ida, Sac, Montha, Crawford, Carroll,
Harrison and Shelby, covering terri
tory three counties in width along the
western border of the state, and five
counties In length, beginning with one
tier OF counties from the northern
boundary of the state and extending
southwark. The telegraph lines in this
territory are greatly demoralized, and
It is next to impossible to get accurate
or detailed information touching the
general losses and casualties This
territory is dotted with villages and
covered with cultivated farms, and the
worst is feared in the way Of damages
and possible loss of life along the water
courses which traverse this great sec
tion Of the state.

The German authorities are taking
extraordinary precautions to prevent
the spread Of infectious diseases from
the Siberian Jews who are focking
through the country, and visitors for
this reason no longer are permitted to
enter the vaults of Charlottenburg,
where the exiles are permitted to rest,
and the fugitives are hurried forward
as rapidly as possible to their ports Of
departure for New York.

FLOOD DISASTER.
Seventy-Five Houses Washed
Away at Cherokee, Iowa.
A Triple Cloud-Burst Followed by Almost
Tornado-lt is Feared That
Great Loss OF Life Has
Resulted.

The terrors of the Johnstown flood
were in part repeated in Cherokee, Ia,
Wednesday. Seventy-five houses have
been carried out of sight in Niagara
like torrent. How many lives have been
lost is as yet matter Of uncertainty.
A terrific cloudburst thrice repeated,
and wind almost hurricane, are what
consummatcd the dread work. The
storm which began Tuesday night ap-
pears to have swept in vast circle OF
North western Iowa, fully 100 miles in
diameter. with Cherokee as a center.
Up to 1890 Wednesday night, owing to
the destruction of wires and railroads,
only the vaguest reports have reached
Cherokee from the devastated territory
to the'west, north and south. The dam
age at Cherokee, taking into account
the relatively small size of the town, is
enormous. Most of the destruction in
Cherokee was wrought by the extraor-
dinary rise in the Sioux river, resulting
from the tremendous down-pour of
water from the sky. Some idea
of the immensity and suddenness
of the flood can be inferred from
the fact that it carried off, apparently
without an effort, the big truss bridge,
on which the Illinois Central railroad
crossed the river, and with the bridge
went 400 feet of trestle on which the
compnny's tracks approached the river.
Tuesday night the Little Sioux was at
the highest stage ever known. The
best Information indicates that the Illi-
nOis Central rails are under water con-

Explosions and Rain.

At Washington Thursday evening o
second experiment was made to pro-
duce rain by explosions in the air. A
balloon sent up in the northern suburbs
was exploded with great violence amid
the clouds. Whether the subsequent
downpour Of rain later on in the even
ing was caused by the explosion re-
mains to be determined, and the de-
partment will try the experiment on a
larger scale to test the efficacy Of this
means Of breaking summer droughts.

THE BACILLUS OF LEPRosY

Isolated and Cultivated, and It Is Hoped
That a Cure of the Terrible Disease Will
he Arrived At.
One or two members Of the leprosy
commission in Allahabad, in southwest
India, have succeeded in isolating and
cultivatipg the bacillus of leprosy.
They accomplished this in an
artificial medium consisting Of
bouillon and gelatine, with which
they inoculated rabbit The ami.
NAL speedily developed leprous nodules
under this treatment. This is the first
time that the bacillus of the terrible
disease has been successfully grown
outside human subjects, and it Is not
improbable that the researches and ex.
periments of the commissioners will
lead to exceedingly interesting, If not
wholly practical results

NEW YORK, June 6. - Nearly one
thousand dollars has been raised
through the Mail and Express to the
aid of DR.. Sheldon Jackson's project
for introducing the reindeer into starv.
ing Alaska. The advent of these
valuable animals will mean very much

Of industries. In few days DR.. Jack
son will sail on the United States ma.
rine steamer Bear from Seattle, Wash,
taking with him a large quantity of
goods with which to barter with the
Sibcrians for reindeer. 1t is expected
that the average cost of each deer will
&c about ten dollars. The government
has requested Capt. c. A. Curtis, of
Madison, Wis, to go to st. Sawrance,
in the Bering Sea, to take charge of "a
station about TO be established there.
The navy department desires to have
a station on this island and TO begin
the breeding of the reindeer for the
Innuits and ESquimauX TO use instead
of dogs. 1t is proposed to import the
reindeer from Siberia TO the island and
to employ party of Siberians to teach
the natives how to raise and care for
the animals. A raindeer park will be
established and as soon as the animals
have been obtained in sufficient num-
bers, some of them will be taken to
Alaska and distributed among the
people of that country displacing the
dogs in use for Sledging in the United
States Arctic possessions.
