THE DEAD WIFE
Is Severely Denounced By HsE
Wronged Husband.
He Has Bought Special Grave For HeF
Interment-M. Delaporte-Lassimonn
and His Mother-in-Law Quarrel
Over the Custody OF the Child.

PARIS, May 27.-M. Delaporte-Lassi-
nome, husband of the woman whO
was killed by Nine Raymond last Sat
urday night while il the company of
M. Raymond, feels very bitter toward
the dead woman for her betrayal of
him, and refuses to allow her body to
be buried in the family vault. He de-
clares that her life was such that she
was not worthy to lie beside the bodies
of his dead relatives. He has, how
ever bought special grave in the Bati-
HOLES cemetery, and here the body will
be inferred.
Since the tragedy the mother-in-law
of M. Delaporte-Lassimonn has been
caring for little Germain, the daughter
of the dead woman. NJ. Delaporte-Las-
simonne has been to his mother-in-law's
house and demanded the girl. The
mother-in-law refuses to surrender her,
and, despite the appeals 'and threats Of
the father, kept possession of the child.
Finally the father, finding her immov-
able, summoned the police, who COM
PEELED the child's surrender to her father.
The scene was a painful one. When
IuC BTduuluOJuST lOuuu JudJ SllS lldu W
relinquish the child she declared that
M. elaporte-Lassimonne had never
treated her daughter as husband
should have done, and that his jealous
suspicious had driven her to commit the
very sin that Heretofore she had never
contemplated. She heaped all manner
of invective upon him and held her
daughter blameless, claiming that she
had been driven to her death by her
husband.
There is still no trace of M. Raymond,
and the suspicion grows that he has
made away with himself rather than to
face the wife he wronged, not only by
his infdelity, but by selling her jewelry
to raise money to furnish room in
which to meet his mistress. His evidence,
if he is alive, will be material to the
prosecution of his wife, and the police
are searching for him in every direction.

A WATHRsPoUT
Collapses Dam at Kinsman, o.-Lives
Lost and Property Destroyed.


NILES, o., May 26.--A messenger for
aid arrived at this city at 1880 Wednes-
day evening from Kinsman, small
village twelve miles northeast of this
city, situated on the Pymatuning river,
and located in one of the most prosper
Gus farming communities in northern
Ohio
He brought with him the intelligence
that a water-spout burst over that Sec
ton about o'clock this morning, aud
that the loss of life and damage to
crops, drowning of stock and destruc-
ton of buildings is appalling, and
number of physicians from this city are
now at the scene administering aid to
the unfortunates who narrowly escaped
a watery grave.
The cloud was first noticed to the
southwest of the village. 1t was seen
that it moved in a northeasterly
direction and direct upon us. The
flashes of lightning and the peals of
thunder were fearful and frequent.
So it burst in all its fury. The water
fell in torrents form 4 o'clock until
few minutes past 6. The small river
overflowed its banks and poured its
volume of water over fertile and well
farmed country.
The farmers on the banks of the
river did not flee for safety, thinking
there was no danger and all would
have been safe had not a large dam To-
Gated about two miles above the village
broke and let solid wall of water pour
down the rivers bed in fearful fury.
No one was warned, all deemed them
selves secure. 1t was upon
them in an instant The river
was over a mile wide and COM
pletely covered the bottoms j. B. Rob-
bins house, small one-story structure,
was located on the brink of the river,
and he and his family, consisting of his
wife and two children, were eating break
fast. lis presumed that they noticed the
volume of water approaching and
started TO flee, but too late. They were
whirled away to death and destruction.
K. Stewart and son were at their
barn, which was some rods from the
house. 1t was carried away and both
were drowned. His house withstood
the torrent and the wife observed the
destruction of her loved ones. j. d.
Campbell and wife were carried down
with the rush. They lodged on the
abutments of a bridge and were
rescued The bodies of the six known
to have perished have been recov-
cred. They were all found in a large
pile of drift wood which reached nearly
across the river. Large numbers of
horses and cattle were swept away and
the total loss will reach $50, 900. The
banks of the river are crowded with ex-
cited sight-seers, and searching parties
are overhauling the driftwood, believ-
ing that all of the dead have not been
found.

LARGEST EVER HELD.


The Great Importance of the Nicarauga
Canal Convention.
NEW York, May 2S. S.-EX-Congressman
George West, of the Saratoga district
was appointed delegate of the New
York board of trade and transportation
to the Nicaragua canal convention,
which is to be held next Thursday at
st. Louis. Other delegates are Capt.
Ambrose Snow, Jordan L. Mott
and John f. Henry. ut will
be the largest convention repre-
senting the commercial interests of the
country ever held in the United States, Z"
said Mr.. West. Its main object is to
advise and consider the prompt con-
struction of the canal under the gov
ernment of the United States Any
how, no matter how it is constructed
and constructed it certainly will
be-the mercantile interests look at
the convention through mercantile
spectacles, A sailing vessel now has
to take course of 1860 miles to go
from New York to San Francisco. If
the Nicaragua canal was in existence
the distance would be just 10, ,75S miles
less. A vessel going from Liverpool to
San Francisco has forty miles less
course to go over than the vessel from
New York. Yet via the canal the YES
sci going from New York to San Fran
cisco would have course of only 4,007
miles and the Liverpool vessel Z, ,627."
