TERRIBLE DISASTER IN SPAIN.
Sudden Midnight Flood Engulfs Villa

A Sudden Midnight Flood Enguifs villa
Canas-- Houses Swept Away--Forty Per-
sons Drowned.
MADRID, Sept. 15.-The town Of Villa
Canas, in the province of Toledo has
been devastated by floods, and large
number of lives have been lost. Heavy
rains have fallen in the province, and
the town, which is situated on rather
low ground, was inundated. The peo-
pie had no thought of danger, though
the many small streams in the vicinity
of the town were rapidly swelling and
threatening to overflow their banks.
Late last night, when most of the In
habitants had retired, the waters from
the hills, where there had probably
been cloud-burst, swept down on the
doomed town, carrying away almost
everything in its path. Huge trees that
had been torn bodily from the ground
swept along on the crest of the rushing
waters, and were hurled with frightful
violence against the houses in the path
of the on-rushing tide,
These trees acted as battering rams,
and carried houses before it. So sudden
was the catastrophe that the affrighted
people had no possible chance of saving
themselves. Men and women awakened
from sound sleep by the lettering of
their dwellings frantically rushed to
windows and leaped out, only to be en-
quilted in the water that was now hiss
ing and seething about the falling
houses.
Other houses that escaped being de-
molished by the floating debris were
rapidly undermined by the waters, and
in many cases collapsed before their &C.
cupants could leave them. The masses
of wreckage going down on the food in
some instances offered means of es-
cape to persons who would otherwise
have been drowned. .l.E
Men, women and children, clutching
in the darkness for anything that would
support them, grasped the trees and
other floating wreckage and were car
ried to places of safety, A large number
Of lives were saved in this manner. In a
number of cases the persons thus saved
were very badly injured and it is prob
able that some.of them will die.
The bodies have been found of several
women who had apparently made heroic
efforts to save themselves and their chill.
dren. In one place handsome young
woman was found with an infant
clasped to her breast with one hand,
while with the other hand she held the
hand of little boy. All were dead and
there was not mark upon them.
1t is positively known that 40 persons
were drowned, and it is believed that
the bodies of many others are buried
under the ruins of their homes. 1t is
! thought that the government will have
to extend aid to the town. The people
are so stricken by the disaster that they
display nc concern over the loss of their
relatives or property, and assistance will
have to be given them until they re-
cover from the blow. ...

A Young Man Named Smedley Arrested
on the Charge of Causing the NuIner-
Gus Fires There.
MEDIA, Pa, Sept. 13.-The climax of
the disastrous epidemic of incendiary
fires in this vicinity during June, and
which broke out anew last week, was
reached to-day, when John G. Smedley,
q teamster Of East Media, was sent to
Jail as the long-looked for firebug. He
is accused of the destruction of at least
ten buildings. Now that man who is
alleged to be the hunted tlre-tiend is
behind prison bars, all Media brcathes q
sigh of satisfaction.
The last fire happened.a week ago,
when the stables at the famous Black
Horse Inn were burned. A man was
seen driving rapidly away and in few
minutes SmedleY dashed up to the scene
of the contlagration and assisted in
saving the hotel His wagon greatly re-
sembles that which the flrebug was seen
to escape in that night. This and other
facts led to Smedley's arrest to-day.
WHERE THE TORCH WAS APPLIED.
The list of buildings that he is ac-
cused of burning follows:
The Black Horse Stables, Isaac Wor-
rails carpenter shop, Joseph B. Taylor's
stable, the stable Mt the Worrall man
sion, DIR. Thomas E. Stellwagon's barn,
Mrs. j. Ed. FBrnum's stable, the barn
of the Sloan estate, the stable of Charles
Martel, the stable of Thomas j. j.
Osborne and the spring house on the
Wirz estate.
The bill of complaint on which the
warrant was issued charges Smedley
with being the incendiary at all these
fires. The complainant in all the cases,
except the Black Horse barn, is Police
Officer Jesse j. Hopes of Media.
ALWAYS ON HAND AT FIRES.
Smedley is young married man and
at one time did a good business as a
teamster. He has long been suspected
of being the tirebug so badly wanted.

His Boy Murdered, by Mexican Bandits.
ST.. Louis, Mo-, Sept. IA special
to the Globe Democrat from San Antonio,
Tex, says that horrible double murder
occurred on the Van Horn ranch, near
Del Rio, Tex, last Wednesday.
A band of IL Mexican outlaws visited
the ranch, on which lived an American
and his little son. Having overpowered
the man and plundered the house of
everything of value, and failing to find
any money, they bound the ranchman
and threatened to take his life if he did
not tell them where he had his money
concealed. He told them he had none.
Then they cut off one of his arms
above the elbow with Ratchet. They
commanded him again to reveal the
whereabouts of his hidden wealth, but
he could not convince them that he had
none, so they cut off his other arm, and
cut his body in score of places.
Then they split his head open with the
Ratchet, seized the boy, cut his throat
from ear to ear, and rode off leaving the
bodies to be devoured by vultures and
coyotes. The rangers have captured two
of them, ..r. ...s

by large number of ex-soldiers, resi-.
dents Of his State, alleging that they
were beset by detectives Of the govern
ment, travelling in disguise, secretly co.
operating with those who have been
distinguished for their antipathy for
men who fought for the flag.
1t is alleged these spies, with friendly
pretences, visit the homes of pensioners
and with the basest hypocrisy and fawn-
ing deception, seek TO find some clew
to furnish information to the pension
office to deprive old veterans of their
pensions.
The petitioners ask protection against
the method OF government officers who
seek to brand pensioners as perjurers
and criminals, without the right of being
heard in their own defence, and be
shielded from the false and base impu-
tation of those high in power who seek
to discredit and dishonor the Union
soldiers of the late war, aud to be pro-
tected in their old age from the severity
and bitterness of party and political
persecution.
In presenting the petition he said that
he had had it read in full because it
contained very serious allegations,
which, If truc, ought to be brought to
light, so that the county may know
what is going on and the Congress may
take action to protect Union veteran
soldiers. He intended to have moved for
instructions to the committee on pen.

CHICAGO, ILL, Sept. Alt took 10

was the Erie No. 1, bringing passengers
from eastern points, but mainly from
New York and Boston. 1t was made
of 90 palace cars and 100 ordinary

The train was divided up into 10 Sec
tons of 10 cars each. From so to 80
persons travelled in each car, but allow
ing the lesser number for each would
give the total of 1900 passengers for
that one train alone.
The special was fair example of the
way eastern roads are carrying Worlds
Fair visitors these days. The western
roads are all doing a heavy business,
but not equal to the excess now being
done by the eastern lines. The Worlds
Fair travel on the Northwestern is
heavier than at any other time. The %

in yesterday carried over 10000 people.

THE BRITANNIA WAS PREMATURE.
The race for the Brenton's Reef cup,
over l20-mile course, was sailed Tuesday,
and the Britannia reached the finish 81

Navahoe won the race.
The judges decided that the Britannia
gained 5id seconds by its start, and that,
therefore, she won the race by "a seconds.

CoUGaLIN MAR ESCAPE.


Convict Him oil the Cronin Murder.
CHICAGO, Sept. 14.-Dan Coughlin,
the ex-detective convicted of completely
in the Cronin murder of 1889, and re-
Gently granted new trial by the Su-
preme Court, may escape with no more
than sham legal battle for the sake of
legal technicality. Many of the most
important witnesses are dead or next to
impossible to locate. The evidence
against the other defendants cannot be
used against Coughlin. Some of this
indirect testimony had much to do with
weaving the web which finally landed
Coughlin in Joliet and its absence may
assist him in escaping the legal penalty
for his alleged wrong-dolng.
States Attorney Kern, Inspector
Shack and Captain Schuettler were in
conference the greater portion of yester-
day, going over the records of the case
The outlook was not encouraging, to
say the least, and the three officers were
by no means confident of winning the
fight to come. The case will be called
for trial i'll another week or ten days.
