Greetings Exchanged Over the Resump-
tion of Diplomatic Relations.
WASHINGTON, May "a Baron Fava,
the Italian minister, made formal call
on President Harrison Monday morn
ing in company with Secretary Blaine.
There were no particular formalities
and no set speeches. Baron Fava took
occasion, however, to inform the presi-
dent that his sovereign, the Italian gov
ernment, and the Italian people alike
were greatly pleased and satisfied by
the settlement of the recent difficulty
in manner so honorable to both Italy
and the United States In referring
to his former service in Washington
he remarked that he had earnest
ly endeavored during residence
of eleven years to strengthen
the ties of friendship happily
existing between the two countries, and
he hardly need add that, with the aid
of the president and of his government,
he would continue his best efforts in
that direction, not forgetting above all
the sympathy which the United States
has historically had for Italian unity.
The president replied in substance that
he was personally and officially gratified
at the return of Baron Fava, whose
services in promoting good relations be-
tween Italy and the United States had
been highly appreciated. The presi.
dent added with earnestness that he
was specially gratified that the differ
ences between the two countries had
been settled with honor to both.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, May 24.-Pemiscot
county has been almost depopulated.
Three-fourths of the county is now
under water and assistance is urgently
needed at several points in the
county between Reelfoot Lake and
Paragould on tho Arkansas side.
There were three families drowned
there last Friday. Their names are:
Wash. Hall, wife and three chill
dren; Joseph Mallory, wife and two
children; Samuel Moore (colored), wife
and daughter. Halls wife was caught
on a tree and was rescued by hunter
She lived only an hour.
The Arkansas bottoms are all under
water and the number of lives lost and
property destroyed cannot be estimated,
because no boats have gone into the
flooded districts and nothing definite
has been learned from there.
The flood situation between Cairo
and Memphis is more serious than be-
tween Cairo and st. Louis, because
there is greater acreage covered by
steamer passing Island No 10 and
Island No. 81 is hailed and takes
on families that have been rem
dered homeless. 1t is estimated
that 800 horses and mules and 1000
head of cattle have been drowned and
that 700, 900 acres of cultivated farms
are under water, which of course means
that the crops along the Mississippi
valley are totally destroyed. According
to Capt. Howard, of the Anchor line,
| there are 225,00 acres of wheat de-
| stroyed, 100000 acres of corn ruined
and nearly 200, 900 acres of cotton mum
dated. In many places an inch more
of water would mean total destruction
to hundreds of farms that are now safe,
but the waters continue to rise, and in
two days more it is expected that L.
100000 acres of cultivated ground will
be flooded.
PINE BLUFF, Ark, May 24.-The des-
titution among the flood sufferers,
white as we'll as black, between Little
Rock and the mouth is appalling. This
city and it's vicinity are filed with
thousands of refugees. The cotton crop
all along the river is totally destroyed
and it is hard to tell on what the farm
ers will live this summer. The govern
ment boat, c. b. Reese, arrived here
Monday evening from the upper river,
where she supplied 1,50O half-famished
people on seventeen different landings
with provisions furnished by the citi-
zens of Little Rock. Hundreds of peo-
pie were taken along and put off on dry
places. At Eagles Landing 12O people
were found living in three houses. Two
men were seen drowning by the crew
and four were rescued from house tops
where they for hours found refuge.

Rio JANEIRo, May 23.-The iron-clad
Solimoes, one of the six war ships sent
by the Brazilian government against
the rebels at Matto Crosse, was sunk
Sunday morning in the harbor of Mon
tevideo. One hundred and twenty-three
of the officers and crew were drowned.
Only four on the vessel escaoed.
The vessel was dispatched from Rio
Janeiro some days since to act as con-
voy to the flotilla which carried troops
to aid in quelling the rebellion in the
Brazilian state of Matto Crosse.
The crew of the war ship
numbered 1877 men. just as
the Solimoae was off Polonio
island, near Point Negra Castillos, she
struck rock violently, bows on. The
sea was very rough at the time. All
the crew were under matches except
four sailors and the pilot. Two of the
sailors acted as lookouts; the other two
were at the wheel.
Through the immense hole made in
her hull the water rushed so fast and
| furious that the vessel sank almost
Immediately. Of all her crew only the
four sailors who were on deck saved
their lives. The pilot also escaped.
The unfortunate men did not even
get chance to gain the deck. They
were drowned like rats in a hole. AS
the water poured in the victims seemed
instantly to realize their danger and
made a frantic but unavailable effort
to dash open the matches. Their cries
were heartrending The scene of the
disaster-Polonio islands northeast
of Cape Santa Maria, which is
near the mouth of the Rio de la Plata.
The Solimoes had double bottom, but
there were few watertight compart.
ments below the water line, and when
the hole was knocked in her hull she
went down like cracked iron pot.
