TORRENT FROM A RAVINE.
Peculiar Disruption of Nature at
Iron Mountain, Wash.

L VI NS
Iron Mountain, Wash.
SPOKANE, Wash, May -. - High
water in Eastern Washington is causing
considerable trouble. Nearly all the
small bridges on the Spokane river are
washed away. A special received from
Colville this morning says: Iron Mount
ain, situated ten miles south Of Col
vile, on the east side Of the Spokane &
Northern railway. near Sherwood
Station, was the scene of one of the most
peculiar disruptiens of nature that has
ever been known i'll this part Of the
country. Whether it was waterspout
or an accumulation of water in an i'm
mense underground reservoir will re-
main a mystery. An eye witness states
that he heard low rumbling noise In
the distance like railroad train. For
a short time the noise would cease, but
it would soon again echo along the
mountain side, each time louder than
before, until great crest of water fifty
feet in height came rushing out of the
canyon at distance of less than
quarter of mile from the residence of
Mr.. Patten. giving the family scarcely
time to escape to the hills.

THOMAS UND1srURBED.
Lack of Quorum Hangs Up the
Music Matter.

CHICAGO, May 12.-The entire session
of the nationtl worlds fair commission
today was spent i'll Wrangling over the
report of the Theodore Thomas investi-
eating committee. The friends of the
musician hfp been maneuverlng all
morning to defeat the object OF the
committee, viz: the adoption Of the re-
port which practically ordered the
director general of the Columbian eX-
position to discharge Thomas. Commits
sioner st. Clair spoke on the question
of jurisdiction, saying that in his opin-
ion the commission had not the Slight
est right to take the action outlined in
the committees report. He went on to
describe that neither the national COM
mission nor the local directory had
any jurisdiction in the matter, but
the power lay entirely i'll the hands of
Director-General Davis. He caused
chairman Lannan to change color when
he SAID that if he were III the place of
Harpist Schuecker, whom the report
charged With dishonesty in writing the
letter to local firm of musical inStru-
meut dealers, asking for a salary of
$1,000 for pldying their harps, he would
immediately have entered suit for
SANDER against the committee as we'll as
the newspaper who published the re-
port. He went on at great length argu-
Ing against the report.
After he had concluded, Chairman
Lannan arosE and practically demanded
an apology ltom Gen. st. Clair. and the
latter gentleman withdrew the Ian
guage, saying that he did not intend it
to hurt Mr.. lannan's feelings, but more
to show hdW he felt in the mat
ter. BY lhis time the quorum
had disappeared, but it did
not deter the members of the commits
sion to discuss the various phases of the
question. Rinally, after three hours
fruitless labor. Chairman Lannan, see
ing that it would be useless to have the
report adopted, as one or two members
had threatened to make the point of no
quorum, he moved that the report be
laid on the table until a quorum was Sc
cured, which was carried without dis
senting vote.
Burton, Of Kansas, proposed that
when the cdm mission takes recess to-
morrow it bf until May 81, owing to the
fact that It'd commission cannot do any
business in the absence OF a Qiofum,
and with thh expectation that by June l
enough members can be corralled to
transact buBiness of the fair. This latter
resolution WAS adopted so that, unless a

Career of Deception Of j. Duma
de Longe in Minnesota.
MoNTEvIDEO. May 12.-WOrd has just
been received here of the arrival of j.
Duma de LOnge in Holland. Coming
for the first time to America about four
years ago with large amount of money
he was leading spirit among the Hol--
laRderS that were then settling the eaSt+
ern part of Chippewa county. A woman
accompanied him whom he passed Off as
his wife. Finally De Longe went into
the mercantile business at Clara City.
1t has been generally known that his
parents in Holland we're wealthy, but it
was not known that he lett a wife and
child behind him III Holland.
a short time ago a man advanced I'M
years, with large party of immigrants
from Holland, arrived at Clara City.
The old man, it is said, informed De.
LOnge that if he would return to Hol-l
land he would be received by his wife,
and parents. De Longe lost no time in
gathering together about $1,000 in cash
and notes amounting to s., 800, and with
out letting amy one know of his inten-
tious suddenly disappeared. His credi-l
tors were soon on his track, and he,
was arrested i'll Hoboken, n. j., but
owing to conflict III descriptions
sent, he made the officers believe
that he was not the man, and was re-
leased. The officers, however, searched
the berth of the steamer on which he
had already secured passage, and cap,
tured the notes and receipt showing
deposit with Chicago bank of 800. A
receiver was at once appointed, and
many creditors rejoice in the fact that
while they cannot get the WOuld-be
swindler, they have much of his effects.
De Longe writes that some of his neigh
bors have written letters derogatory to
his character that have recently been
published in the Holland papers, and
he is very indignant over their making
public his affairs. The woman who
passed for his wife is now plain Miss
Gasterland, and is still at Clara City. =
