EmcOurRglnE Outlook.

The weekly weather and crop bulle-
tin of the South Carolina weather SER
vice, III cooperation with the United
States Signal Service, for the past week
was issued Saturday afternoon and 1T IS
as follows, giving much information
to the farmers in the various sections
of the State:
During the week the rainfall has been
below the normal and badly distributed;
temperature and sunshine have been
about the average. The weather con-
ditions were conducive to the maturity
of tho cotton crop. The plant has q
considerable quantity of fruit. and the
fields are white with blooms. The prob.
abilities are that with ordinary seasons
they will mature. No damage is re-
ported from caterpillarS; some from
rust on lands, but the injury is confined
to few localities. Great obstruction
is reported Of crops in one section OF :,
county by storm and hail. The pros
pect for an average cotton cropis much
more encouraging than any previous
week.
The corn crop was never better, the
early corn has fully matured, and large
quantities of blades have been stripped
and saved in fine condition. The late
corn is making rapid growth and prom
ises to be large one.
The tobacco crop is large in quantity
very superior in quality and the large
proportion has been cut and cured.
The present outlook for the rice crLr
is promising both in quantity and quail
ity, and the first field Of rice was cut oi
the 18th instant. The general harvest
will commence next week.

VIENNA, Aug. 2O.-Further details
from BotZen, near the scene of the
cloudburst, which, rs announced ON
Tuesday last. partially destroyed the
village Of holman, seem to show that
the damage done and the number of
lives lost are greater than was at first
supposed. The cioud-burst over the
mountains flooded the lowlantls ard
converted Il mountain stream into a
torrent, which swept through the vii
lage OF koliman, carrying away people
and cattle and destroying half the
houses in the place. Forty people were
said to have been drowned by this ac,
cident, which also destroyed the rail
road for many miles.
1t now appears that the fall Of water
from the clouds also flooded the other
side OF the mountains, and the hamlets
situated on The hilltops have been iso-
lated by the flood. Many corpses have
been seen in the valley on the other side
of the mountains. They were being
carried down the torrents, and it is
feared that further and great damage
to property has resulted from the Calam.
ity and that the loss of life is very
much greater than announced in the
first reports. Some time must ncces-
sarily elapse before the fun details of
the affair are known,

GORDON DOoGED THEIssUE.
Not II Word Had IIo to Say to the Dc.
mands of tho Alliance.

ATLANTA, Aug. Ex-senator Gordon
has lodged, the Alliance convention
and now becomes the central figure of
their agitation. The resolution calling
upon him to declare himself upon the
Ocala platform was very pointcdly
worded, that it should be done before
this convention adjourns.
1t was given out early this morn
ing that Senator Gordon would clcctriiy
tho convention during its morning SrS-
ton. Instead Of that Il motion was in.
trOduced to reconsider the resolution
introduced yesterday, asking Gen. Cor
idon to give his views on the Ocala plat
form, but after considerable discussion
failed. The convention was OF the
opinion that since Senator Cord on was
figuring as an opponent Of Alliance
principles, that he should at once put
himself in accord with them.
AS the convention was to adjourn
with the afternoon session, great inter.
est centered therein for all the alliance
men wanted to hear what Senator
Gordon had to say. 1t was never even
dreamed that ne would snub the state
body by refusing to honor their request.
The adjournment came without the
appearance Oh Gordon, not even Il SUg-
gtStiOn as to what he intended to do.
The feeling among the members was
strong, and found vivid expression in
such rXClamationS us "Durn il, when he
wanted our votes we couldn't shake him
OFF,
1t was aScertained during the evening
that Gordon was at the Governors
residence where Il plan of campaign
was being arranged. When the con-
ference was over Senator Gordon gave
out for publication Il short letter to the
Alliance at large, saying that his posi-.
Lion on public matter had been fully set
forth in speeches, and he was surprised
that any further statement should he
necessary. lie intended to address the
people shortly and hoped to prove to
them that he was their friend. The let
ter is extremely non-cOmmital on the
very point upon which the State Ali
ance wished to cross question him.
The state Alliance adjourned this al.
ternoon after Il brief session. There
was no business OF general interest
transacted, save a re-aillrmation OF the
Ocala platform and Il request that the
legislature formally indOrSc it.

Mexican ports and Havana, and, as a
precautionary measure, was detained,
Tor thorough inspection and iumiTatiOn.
by the health officer at the quarantine,
The steamer will not be allowed to come
up to the city until tomorrow.
The City Of Washington left Vera
Cruz early in August, and yellow fever
was prevalent to an alarming extent in
that city. The hospitals was filled, and
though the health authorities were striv-
ing TO check the spread Of the disease,
their efforts were apparently unava;ling.
Their first attempts were to isolate
the patients as soon rs the malady made
its appearance. but the disease spl cad so
rapidly that it was impossible to cope
with it.
Many deaths have occurred during
the last six weeks and it was a common
sight, the officers OF the vessel say. to
sec strin" Of funerals half a mile long,
from the gates of the city TO
the cemetery, each funeral party wai.-

Their threats and mutinous conduct

Of the ship, the men retired to their
quarters forward and held council of

Capt. Bakkcr had several times ds-
