Nevada's Ex-Congressman Dies Sud-
denly of ApopIexy.
RENO New, June A.-Hon. George
W. Cassidy, the Democratic nominee for
Congress, left the Silver Convention
about o'clock this afternoon feeling
badly. He went to his room at the Pal
ace Hotel, and died of apoplexy about
five minutes later. 1t was great shock
to the convention and all his friends here.
The convention Immediately adjourned.
Mr.. Cassidy has served Eureka County
the second term in the Legislature, and
represented this State two terms in the
United States Congress.
Flags are at half-mast all over the city,
and the whole town sympathizes. Cas-
sidy made very eloquent speech to-day,
explaining his position why he was pres
emf. Twenty minutes after the speech he
was dead. Cassidy was editor of the Eu-
reka Sentinel, and was a favorite with
all the newspaper men of Nevada. His
body was taken to the Coroner's Office,
and will probably be taken home to-mor-
row.

Special to the REcoRD-Ux1oS.

| Special to the RECoRD-UNIoN
CHICAGO, June 24.-The exceptionally
| heavy rainfalls of the past three days
have again caused quite serious floods in
this vicinity. The river has risen far
above the normal hight, and is running
into the lake at the rate of four miles per
hour. The main sewers, being unable to
get free outlet into it, have clogged up,
and the smaller sewers, unable to contain
the vast volume of water poured into
them from the streets, become clogged,
with the result of flooded easements in
| several portions of the business district
and much damage to property. Scores of
business houses have six to eight inches
OF water in their easements, and every
portion OF the city has suffered some
damage.
The floods of two months ago, which
were then considered phenomenal, have
| been far surpassed. In the big depart
ment stores downtown to-day large
forces of men were kept busy moving
goods stored in the easements to places
safety. Many small sewers have bursted,
and the flood coming up through the
ground has ruined the cedar block paw
ing in many places, the street depart
ment estimating that it will cost at least
$50, 900 to repair the damaged paving.
The railroads running to Chicago from
the west report much damage from
Washouts, and on most of them trains
| were badly delayed this morning.
The extreme west end of the city is in
some parts lake, and the suburbs lying
west and northwest of the limits have
suffered greatly.
Early this evening the north branch of
the Chicago River raised to such an ex-
tent that the water in the vicinity Of
Ravenswood began to flood over the
banks, with the result that at midnight
| it is reported fourteen hundred houses in
| that suburb are surrounded by water for
a depth of one to three feet.
The town of Cicero is also flooded,
many of the houses being entered by
means of temporary bridges.
| Through the streets of Austin this after
noon water was flowing several inches
| deep. Not basement escaped flooding,
| and wooden siGcHalks are floating around
in all directions.
| The same reports come from Ridge
| land, Moreland and other suburban
towns. The amount of damage in this
city and outlying districts cannot be even
| approximately estimated for some days.
The rainfall here yesterday was 3.O8
inches and nearly as much fell on each Of
the two preceding days.
In the great lumber districts about
Twenty-second street the yards are
flooded and men were busy this evening
anchoring piles of shingles and lumber
near the river. Several elevators near
the river were compelled to shut down.
