More Appalling News.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 4.-News re-
ceived here this morning from
islands on the lower coast of Lou
isiana, is most appalling. The
rumored disaster at Grand Isle, is
confirmed and the death list has
swollen until it now reaches into
the thousands. Grand Isle was all
but swept out of existence, and out
of seven hundred souls, who were
on the island at the time of the
storm, only about twenty escaped.
The island of Chieniere Canria-
da, about one mile and half west
of Grand Isle, contained over
two thousand persons. Ofthsse only
about 100 escaped. There are five
small islands in Grand Bay and
each was populated by a large
number of fishermen. y few OF
these escaped alive. At Bayou
Cook eighty-seven persons lost
their lives by actual count. 1t is
impossible to state the loss of
life in the immediate vicinity, as
the storm was so intense and the
water so high that men arriving
from there could not give accurate
guess of the number of persons
who were drowned. Many of these
who got in from the same dis
aster this morning stated
that the news of the extent Of the
suffering from the storm was only
beginning to arrive, and before
long the death list would reach an
almost incomprenensihlo figure.
The passenger train on the New
Orleans, Fort Jackson and. Grand
Isle road, which was due here at
9 80 o'clock this morning, was up
wards of an hour late. The delay
was caused by the train stopping
to pick up parties who had escaped
the floods, and were anxious to
reach the city.

The Palmetto Trade Mark.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.-While the
final settlement of the celebrated
Palmetto trade mark case has not
been reached, a decision favorable
to the petitioner, who is really Gov.
Tillman, was given in the district
supreme court yesterday. The de-
murrer Of Commissioner Seymour
was overruled, and the order of
court was in effect, that the COM
missioner must register the Pal
metto Trade Mark, Or appear before
the court next Saturday, to show
why Che has not done So.

Later Storm News.

NEW ORLEANS, La, Oct. "A
survivor of the storm, from Bayou
Cook, who saw his wife washed
away before his eyes, reached here
this mornings and says he saw many
hundreds of people drowned. Eigh-
ty-seven bodies, so far, have been
recovered. Out of 400 people on
Gambia Island, only about 300 have
escaped alive.
Steamer Joe Weber is reported as
lost, and all on board. Only ten
people of all the inhabitants on
Grand Isle, are reported as saved.
MOBILE, Ala, Oct. 4.-Storm
news is just beginning to arrive,
and it will be many weeks before
the full story of the death and
destruction is told. The beauti-

bay is almost entirely de-
stroyed. The damage to
all kinds of property can hardly be
estimated, and it will be many
weeks, before same can be even
partially repaired.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 4.-(Senate.)
In the Senate today the first open
suggestion of the compromise on
the repeal bill was made, and at
tracted the closest attention on
both sides of the chamber. Senator
Butler, of South Carolina, in an
impassioned speech against the
passage of the bill, made
the compromise a salient feature.
In reply to a question which he
said had been asked over and over
again, as to when the vote would
be had on the bill, Butler said the
compromise is the solution Of the
struggle here.

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 4.-The nine
teenth annual meeting of the Mis-
sissippi Valley Medical association
will be held here today, tomorrow
and Friday. The profession here
have made arrangements for the
entertainment of the organization,
which will bring about 800 mem
bers here. The organization, as it
was founded fifteen years ago, was
the Tri-State Medical society, rep
resenting Indiana, Illinois and
Kentucky. Then delegates We're
admitted from adjoining states,
and in 1880 the name was changed
to the Mississippi Valley assOcia-
ton. Since then the association
has taken on a national scope by
the admission of delegates from
every state in the Union, and at
it's last meeting in Cincinnati it
came to the front as medical
organization. The probabilities
are that the present meeting in
scientific work will be the best in
the history of the organization.
The attendance will be unusually
large, as many physicians expect to
make their visit to the Worlds fair
at this time. General sessions of
the association will be held each
morning in Plymouth church. The
physicians will be welcomed by
Gov. Matthews. The scientific
work will be done in three sec
tIons-General Medicine, General
Surgery and Obstetrics and Gyne-
cOlOgy. These sections Will
meet at Plymouth and Me-
ridian street church in the af-
ternoons. This evening DR.. Henry
Marcy, of Boston, authur of a
standard medical work on "Her-
MIA" will deliver an illustrated
lecture on that subject. Tomorrow
evening an address will be deliv-
cred by DR.. James Hibberd, Of
Richmond, Ind, on medicine. DIR,

THE MURDERER IDENTIFIED.
Jack Nicely Deliberately Killed
Young Thomas at a Ball,
Near Waelder.

AS stated in yesterdays issue Of
the LIGHT, two young negroes,
Jack Nicely, alias Will Young, and
John Henry, were arrested i'm this
city yesterday morning by Officer
F. f. Seffel, Neely on the charge of
murder and Henry for vagrancy.
The constable Of Waelder, Texas,
was notified of the arrest of these
parties, as it was upon information
received from him that they were
imprisoned.
This morning at 9 o'clock Con-
stable Taylor, of Waelder, arrived
in the city and repaired to the Cen
trail police station. The negroes
were brought up, and at once the
officer said: "You have captured
the right parties" He then left
the station and transacted some
business matters in the city. Re-
turning with his deputy, he took
charge of the men, and at l:l5 left
for Waelder on the Southern Pa
cific.
1t seems that about year ago,
"John Henry" whose name is
Henry Nicely, a brother of Jack
Nicely, the murderer, had aditficul-
ty with a Waelder negro named
AnthOno Thomas. In the combat
Thomas struck young Nicely over
the head with large rock, intlict-
ing a bruise which will cause pain,
at times, during Neely's entire life.
When Jack Nicely learned that
Thomas had so brutally treated
his younger brother he made a
VOW that he "lived to get even and
would murder Thomas at first
sight," as he expressed it.
Saturday night a cOlOred ball
was given about three miles south
of Waelder, which the Nelly
brothers attended. During the
evening Thomas arrived to enjoy
the festivities. Jack Nicely was on
the floor, dancing when his
brother Henry rushed in and in
formed him that Thomas was in
the adjoining room, at the same
time handing him a 45-calibre
Colts revolver. Jack excused HIM
self from his company, and enter
ing the next room, saw Thomas
and fired, killing him instantly.
The terrified dancers soon re-
allied what a crime had been
committed, and rushed out to
catch Jack, who, with his brother,
succeeded in escaping, a moment
after the killing.
The authorities of Waelder were
notified Immediately and began an
investigation. They received the
intelligence that the brothers were
on their way to San Antonio, and
telegram to the officers here, con-
veying that Information, led to
their arrest.
Jack Nicely will be imprisoned
on the charge Of murder. and his
brother, Henry, for theft, as it was
ascertained that Henry stole the
weapon which Jack used in taking
the life Of Thomas.

WATER TRANSPORTATION.

S. A. THOMPSON, of the Duluth cham
Der of commerce, in his remarks at the
Commercial club meeting of Tuesday
evening, showed that the lake boats
convey freight from Duluth to Buffalo
i'll shorter time than is made by rail, and
that the freight rate is to &c in favor of
the waterway. J. J. HILL has a boat
building which is expected to run from
Duluth to Buffalo in fifty hours. Mr..
THoMPsON'S showing is the most CON-
prehenSiYe yet unfOlded. The advantage
the country will obtain by building up
the service of the lakes, and extending
it i'll canals, is presented so clearly that
every one must appreciate the impor-
lance of the matter. With ship canal
to the Hudson the lake boats would be
enabled to engage in the Atlantic coast
service during winters, and this profit
able increase of business would tend to
lower the summer lake rates. Within
twenty years, Mr.. THOMPSON believes,
the freight on wheat will be reduced
two-thirds.
The matter is of such Importance that
it cannot be long until the people will
elect only such congressman as will
favor building the required canals and
improving the lake harbors. We want
not alone the canal 20 the Hudson, but
the one connecting the Mississippi with
Superior, so that the product of the
Northwest and of the Mississippi valley
can be conveyed from the rivers head
of navigation to the Atlantic ocean
without change of boats. 1t is time for
united action all over the Northwest,
and from there to the seabOard.
