WIDESPREAD DESTITUTION IN

Flood Losses in Iowa,
Illinois and Elsewhere.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, May 2G.--Reports
from the lowlands on the Arllansa5,
st. Francis and White rivers, estimate
that at least S1O,O people have been
rendered homeless by the floods and
thirty-two lives have been lost in the
Arkansas bottoms, while several
negroes and Indians have been drowned
near Mariana. The river is still fall
ing at Little Rock, but the distress on
the lower Arkansas continues.
Arkansas City, Ark, is completely
under water, all the stores being
flooded and the tops of houses alone
visible on the back streets. Trains

pie of the country for aid was made;
The greatest known overflow of the Ar
kansas river is now causing widespread

starvation and our means for relief are be-
ing rapidly exhausted. In the name of the
suffering and imperilled thousands we ask
for money, provisions, feedstuffs, early
corn for seed and cotton seed. Contribu-
lions should be sent to Merchants and

ages fully 5000. The number of dwell
ings washed away is given as 1877 and
TOO more were rendered untenantable.

C. E. MONTGOMERY OF Linz
COLIN, NEB., KILLED.
VICTIM OF A WRONGED HUSBAND.
He Was Former Friend and Business
Partner of william II. Irvine, a Mem
Der OF tho Utah Legislature, and
Caused the Ruin OF the Lat
ter's Wife-A Dramatic
Tragedy.

LINCOLN, Neb., May ETC. e. Mont.
gomery, president of the German ma
tional bank of this city and a wealthy
real estate owner, was shot and killed
at 1880 o'clock this morning, just as ne
emerged from the breakfast room of
the Hotel Lincoln, by his former
partner in business here, at present
member of the Utah legislature, Will
liam II. Irvine, who claimed to have
proof positive that Montgomery had
wronged him through his wife.
Last January Mrs. Irvine visited
with Lincoln and Omaha friends, leav-
ing in February for the home Of her
mother in Marion, Ind, since which
time she had remained there and it is
surmised that she had left her hus-
band.
Three or four days ago Irvine was
in this city en- route east from Salt
Lake. This morning, at 5 o'clock, he
came in from the east, went to his
former home at the corner of Seven
tccnth and NJ streets and sat on the
porch for an hour or more, apparently
wrapped in meditation.
Then Irvine went to the hotel and
assembled the broad stairway leading
from the lobby to the balcony, off
which opens the dining-room. Mont
gomery was seen to arise and start
toward the entrance. Irvine met him
with the exclamation: you have
ruined my wife" and Immediately
opened fire with deadly results
Then, with the smoking pistol in one
hand, Irvine cried, holding up some
papers in the other hand: "And here
are the documents to prove it,"
1t is said that Irvine met his wife in
Chicago yesterday or the day before by
appointment and that she confessed
intimacy with Montgomery, fixing the
date at February 6, when it is claimed
she took trip to Galveston with him.
Irvine was at once arrested, and the
papers he held aloft are in the hands
of the police and are jealousy guarded
Fearing trouble, lrvines friends at
once procured his removal to the pen
itentiary for safety, The murdered
man was one of the projectors of the
new Texas gulf harbor at Laporte, If
which Ex-Governor Thayer is deeply
interested, and returned from there
only yesterday morning with party
of Nebraska state officials.

THE CROP OUTLOOK.
Tn Rains and Cool Weather Did Little
Damage to Kansas Fields.

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, May 26.-Nery
full reports to the Star from the great
grain growing areas of Kansas show
that the continued rains have not oUnc
great damage to the crops. The west
ern half of Kansas indeed, has not re-
ceived excessive rains nor has the tenn
perature in that part of the state been
as deficient as in other parts of the
country From Hutchinson westward
the people are positively enthusiastic
over the prospects for wheat, and
from Hutchinson south there is hardly
a complaint regarding the corn crop.
Generally speaking, the wheat pros
poets have not materially impaired
in the great central region where
wheat is the most important crop. In
the north and east parts of the state
there is some complaint of thin and
slclly plants. The great majority of
opinion among those most competent.
to Judge is that there is very good
chance for Kansas to raise more than
so, 900, 900 bushels of wheat this year,
and no likelihood at all
that the crop will fall below 49,
600, 900 bushels. Farmers are very
busy in the fields everywhere
planting corn. They have had three
days of fine weather. If the good
weather continues until the middle CT
next week a full acreage will have
been sown by that time. The planting
is practically finished in the southern
half of the state now. 1t is half done
in the northern half though there are
some counties in which not more than
third of the fields are sown. But with
good weather corn planted now will
be up, cultivated and Laid by" before
wheat harvest. If the weather should
remain cool some fields will perhaps
have to be neglected. A great deal of
re-planting was made necessary by the
long So of cold, wet weather in the
eastern half of the state. That extra
labor is of course considerable bur-
den on the farmers. But it will not
rest heavily on them. The corn crop
is backward. In some localities not
much of yield is possible. But the
state as whole has chance for a
crop larger than last year. No one can
tell, of course, anything about the
prospects of crop of which no more
than half has yet started to grow. But
the chances are at least even for a
good yield of corn and, excepting in
restricted localities, the farmers of the
state are in a cheerful mood.

A motion was Immediately made to

stricken out attached as foot note,

eral OTHERS made ringing speeches in

ETY.. The section was added as a foot

dents of the Epworth leagues must be

SACKED BY INDIANS.
Two Mexican Towns Raidcd and Omclals
Killed.


PHGNIx, Ariz., May 27,--A telegram
from Guayamas says that May Is 200
Mayo Indians attacked the towns of
Naojoa San lgnacio, on Mayo river
district, Alamo. The mayor of Naioa
was killed and the principal places of
business sacked. At San lgnacio the
chief of police and his brother were
killed and several inhabitants severely
wounded The inhabitants of the
town rallied and repused the Indians,
killing fourteen.
The Mayo Indians have heretofore
been peaceable and the uprising is a
great surprise. 1t is feared that they
have made an alliance with the Yaquis
who are concentrating all forces for a
prolonged fight, though government
officials deny any alliance whatever.
Unless the Mayos lay down their arms
on approach of the troops decree OF
determination will be promulgated
against them.
