the half has not been told of the flood
that must soon sweep down the Rio
Grande. At Cumbress Hill, Colorado,
the water now stands up beside the
Denver and Rio Grande station house,
six feet deep, and thence it extends for
miles, covering the whole range as far
as Toltec Gorge, and ranging in depth
from four to twenty-five feet. All
the streams are running bank full. The
Chama, Rio Brazos, Wolf Greek and
tributaries are rushing streams. In
places 1T is said whole mountain sides
are covered with water, trickling out
from under the snow on top, and spread
ing over the face of the decline in every
direction. Thus far the weather has
continued cool in that region; hence
the floods that have passed do not begin
to indicate what may follow. At Val
verde, above San Marcial, much land is
under water, and there is also trouble
in the Lajora bottoms.

USURPER BULKLEY.
Els Answer to the Quo Warranto Pro
ceedings Against Him.

HIS Answer to the Quo WarrantO Pro-
ceedings Against Him.
NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, May 8.-Attorney
Case, acting for Governor Bulkley and
Lieutenant-Governo Merwin, filed an
answer to the quo warranto proceedings
brought by Morris and Alsop, in the su-
perior court, this morning. Governor
Bulkley claims that he, and no other
person, is the true and lawful governor
of Connecticut; that the general assem-
bly, of Connecticut, at it's January ses-
sion of 1889, by joint ballot, elected him
to be governor foi two years, and until his
successor has duly qualified. He still
acts as governor, because no successor
has yet been chosen. He states tn at
Morris did not have majority over all
and on account of manifest mistakes in
the returns, it was impossible to tell
who, if any one, had been legally chosen
governor. Concluding, Bulkley denies
that he usurps the office. and says he
uses said Office by warrant and author
ity of the law, and asks to be dismissed
of and from the things charged upon
him in the information. Merwin's an
swer is the same.

PHILADELPHIA, May S.-The Spring
Garden National bank closed its doors
at Ii O'Clock today, by order OF National
Bank Examiner Drew.
The news of the closing spread rap
idIy, and large crowd soon collected,
but admittance was denied to all. Pres
ident Kennedy sent out the following
note: at was this morning decided to
place the bank in the hands of the ma
tional bank examiner. This was forced
upon us, principally by the large with
drawal of deposits during the financial
stringency last September, and the con-
tinued dullness of business since. To
meet these demands on our reserves, it
was found impossible to realize rapidly
on the assets. We hope the suspension
will be only temporary"
But little information as to the bank S
real position could be learned, as the
officials, directors and Examiner Drew
were in consultation and could not be
seen. Among the crowd of stockholders
and depositors, who gathered on the
street in front of the bank, strong
feeling prevailed that the closing of the
bank would prove but temporary. and
that they would recover their money.
The Pennsylvania Safe Deposit and
Trust company, which has its office in
the Spring Garden National bank build
ing, made an assignment this afternoon.
The Trust company is really part of
the bank, but is said to be solvent, the
assignment being simply for protection
against a run. The capital stock OF the
bank is $750,000, fully paid in, and by
its February statement the reserve fund
amounted in round figures to $3.50, 900.
The banks line of deposits amounted to
about $2,000,000, and the city of Phil
adelphia, which has 100000 locked
up in the broken keystone bank,
again suffers to the extent of
$l54,00O. When the run took place on
the keystone bank, last winter, small
run was also made on the Spring Gar
den bank, but the bank met it without
difficulty. Outside bank officials were
not surprised at the failure today. They
said it had been for some time in
weak condition, and that in the inner
financial circles of the city, it was
known that unless the bank received
aid from some influential quarter, it
would get into trouble.

Proceedings of the International Conven-

KANSAS CITyH Mo-, May S.-The
Young Mems Christian Association con-
vention today decided on Indianapolis
as the place to hold the next conven-
ton.
A lengthy report from the internation-
al committee was read. Its recommen-
dations, for the observation of the second
Sabbath in November as day of praise
and thanksgiving, for an appropriation
OF $50, 900 yearly for international work,
and other things, were approved.
Subscriptions were called for, and in
few minutes $4,000 was subscribed
for international work.
Mr.. March, of Denver, made state
ment that he understood that the Port
land test fer membership had been mod
flied in India. This brought out a
lengthy discussion, and several dele
gates wanted to denounce the eastern
brothers for making the change. A
resolution was finally adopted, however,
simply stating that the test of active
membership in foreign associations be
the same as the Portland test, under
which the American associations are
organized.

SUSPECTED POISONING.
The Sudden Death Yesterday of Maggie
Fingeres.

Yesterday morning colored woman
named Fingeres died under very sus-
picious circumstances at the Buena
Vista house on New High street. She
showed all the symptomsof having been
poisoned, and the coroner was accord
ingly notified. The woman's husband
is a cook at the st. Elmo hotel. He
says that for twenty-four hours before
her death, his wife had complained of
severe pains in her breast and shoul-
ders. DIR. Choate was called just before
her death, but nothing that he could do
appeared to help her.
The woman was formerly an inmate
of Browns dance house at San Pedro,
and the reason of her being at home
now was that she might testify in San
Pedro arson case, which will be tried
soon in the superior court here.
1t is suspected by her friends that she
was poisoned. A post mortem was held
yesterday, and the result OF that, to-
gether with other facts, will be brought
out at the inquest, which is set for to-
day at pm.

evening, he sent Mrs. Moore 1000, say
ing he had not collected the balance and
that he was going away for a few days
and would collect it on his return. Sus-
pcion was aroused, which led to the dis
coyery that he had collected the full
amount through the Medford bank, and
had taken train for the north. It was
learned by telegraph that he had left the
train at Roseburg, and the sheriff of
Douglass county was notified, who ar
rested him, as stated above, on the
charge of embezzlement. Deputy Sher-
iff Taylor went to Roseburg tonight to
bring him back.

BOND TROUBLES.
Two Missouri Counties Refuse to Pay
Their Obligations.

Two ml6sOurl COant1es kefus0 Co ray
Their Obligations.
KANSAS Cry, May 8.-There is trouble
in the execution of the recent judgments
in the bond cases against Cass and St.
Clair counties. 1t grows out of the re-
fusal of the judges OF the county court
to levy taxes for the payment of these
judgments. The judges of each county
announced their determination to go to
Jail rather than order tax on the people.
There are two judgments against St.
Clair county, one in favor of B. d.
Stewart, and the other in favor of the
Ninth National bank, New York, aggre-
eating over 100000. When Dep
uty Marshal Oechsby served the
papers on the judges yesterday, they
told him they would never order
the tax; that they had been elected un
der a promise to the people never to levy
tax for the payment of these bonds,
and that they were not only opposed to
it, but were afraid to. The condition of
affairs in Cass county is even more des-
perate. A judgment was rendered some
time ago in favor of Albert Parker, a
capitalist of San Diego, CAL, for about
100000. A mandamus ordering levy
of taxes was granted by the court and
disregarded. Three judges were arrested
and gave bonds in the sum of $1,000 each
to appear before the court in Kansas
City the second Monday in June. The
bonds are railroad bonds, and issued by
the counties twenty years ago.

The Transit of Mercury.

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 8.-General
instructions to observers respecting the
transit of mercury Saturday, have been
issued from the naval observatory, az
follows: The attention of astronomical
observers is invited to the transit OF
Mercury over the disk of the sun, which
will occur May 8, 1891, and will be visi-
BILE throughout the United States. Its
accurate observation is of great import
ance. Every effort should therefore be
made to have it carefully observed by all
who possess the necessary equipment.
The naval observatory will be glad to
receive observations OF the transit from
as many stations as possible.
