LoUIsIANA's FLOOD.

Ten Lives Lost in the New River
Country and Hundreds without
Food.
New Orleans, July 2.-Suddenly .. and
almost without warning, the relentless
waters pouring through the Rescue Gre
vase, now 500 feet wide, swept down
New river last Tuesday night, carrying
destruction and terror in their path
Many of the unfortunate people are yet
enduring the pangs of hunger, for they
have no means of securing food and it
will be fortunate indeed, if all are sue
cOred before starvation and exposure
find victims among them. So far as re
ported up to this evening, ten lives have
been lost,-a white girl, three colored
men, one colored woman and five Colored
children, whose names have not been
learned.
The New river country has frequently
been OverhOwed, but no previous food has
compared in depth, extent, or the sud
denness of its coming, with the one that
now covers it. Places that were unaf-
fected by the crevasses of 1882, 1891 and
1899, are now several feet under water,
and localities heretofore believed to be
above overflow are submerged to-day.
Two fleets of skiffs have been sent to the
rescue, which, it is hoped, will save all
the people from the flooded section.

with impressive ceremonies. 1t was a

Seven thousand New York veterans, the
governors of two states, surviving gener

present.
The first feature of the day was a re-
ception to Major-General George S.
Greene, by his brigade on Culp's Hill.
The general is in his 93d year
In the afternoon the veterans formed a
column of four divisions and proceeded to
the national cemetery, where the monu-

COAL MINERS TO STRIKE.
The Greatest Mine War in the History
Of England Imminent.

London, July "A general strike of
the coal miners is imminent. The
proposal of the mine owners to
reduce wages 25 per cent. has
been stubbornly resisted by the men.
Delegates from the mines have conferred
at length with the employers, but to no
purpose. The proposition of the employ
ers that the dispute be referred to arbi-
traitors has been rejected and negotia-
tiOns broken of. The men to be
affected by the strike number
100000. The leaders will make
an effort to call them all out. Should
they succeed, the strike will be far graver
than the one in the spring of 1S02-in fact
the largest strike in the history of the
united kingdom. The leaders of the men
say it will be fight to the last ditch, as
the employers are believed to have taken
courage from the success of the ship
owners in crushing the lockers and to
have resolved upon smashing organized
labor throughout the districts controlled
by them, All the large factories in Man
chester and Birmingham are purchasing
large stocks of coal in anticipation of a
scarcity The employers notice of re-
duction will become operative July 2S,
and the strike is expected to begin imme-
diately afterward.

SENATORSHIPS At STAKE.
Three Contests from the North West
TO be Decided.

The Appointees Of the Governors of
Montana, Wyoming and Washing
ton not Seated During the Spring
Session.-Their Votes might Cut an
Important Figure in Deciding the
Silver Question.
Washington, July 2-The facts that
the senators from the northwestern
states are not unanious on the silver
question and that some of them will prob
ably vote to repeal the Sherman silves
purchasing law, seems to lend add
ed interest to the contests, which
were pending when the Senate
adjourned in extra session in
April last, in the case of the senator's
from Montana, Wyoming, and Washing
ton. In all three of these states the leg
islatures got into a prolonged deadlock
and adjourned without electing senator's
to fill the vacancies that were to occur on
March 4.
TIE APPoINTRE FROM MONTANA.
The governor of Montana appointed
Lee Mantle, republican, but a prominent
free coinage advocate, to succeed Wilbur
F. Sanders, republican. Mr. Mantles
credentials were referred to the commit
tee on privileges and elections, which
made majority report in favor of seating
the appointee, but the Senate adjourned
without action on his case and the seat
remains vacant. The legislature of
the state is controlled by the
democrats and populists; but
-
Should the republican appointee of the
governor be not seated, the legislature
would probably choose a democrat or
populist. Gov. Richards of Montana was
in Washigntop recently and declared very
emphatically that he would not call the
legislature together again if Mr.. Mantle
was refused seat.
A FUsIoNIsT FROM WYOMING.
In Wyoming the legislature had dem
ocratic and populist majority, but failed
to elect a senator to succeed Francis E.
Warren, republican. The governor, a
fusionist, appointed A, G. Beckwith, a
free coinage fusionist. His credentials
also were, before the Senate commi ttee
without action when the Senate ad-
journed
In Washington the state legisla ture
and governor are both republican, but
the legislature failed on account of local
fights to elect a successor to j. B. Allen,
republican, and the governor appointed
him TO succeed himself. His case was
also pending when the Senate adjourned.
Mr. Allen, it is thought, would vote for
repeal of the Sherman silver law, if ad-
| mitted to his seat.
SURE TO BE A FIGHT.
These three contested cases will proba-
bring on practical preliminary fight be-
| fore the Senate can settle down to bust.
ness for which the extra session convened
The right of senator to his seat is a
question of highest privilege, and the SEN
ators on one side or the other of the sill
yer question are sure to demand a decis-
ion on these cases before any vote is taken
on the Sherman law. In addition to these
potent probabilities of delay there are un-
acted-upon resolutions of investigation in
the case of Senator w. n. Roach, of North
Dakota, upon which a hot partisan debate
is inevitable.

DRExEL'S WILL.

Over $4,000. 900.


Philadelphia, July 2.-The late A. j.
Drexel's will was drawn ten years ago,
but with numerous codicils since, viii not
be read until one week after the funeral.
The estate amounts to over 0,000,0 900.
The will directs the reorganization
of all three partnerships in the
great banking firm on the first
day of the January succeeding
Mr. Drexel's death and establishes
the amount of interest the state is to
hold in them hereafter. Both the
Drexel institute and the Childs-DreXel
home for union printers are remembered
and good deal of money is given out
right to charities. II is expected that
Anthony j. Drexel, Jr., and John
K. Drexel win succeed to most
of the banking interests, while George w.
Childs Draxel will get, among other
things, his fathers interest in the Public
Ledger.
The Philadelphia house of Drexel &
Co. will continue on much the same lines
as before

partner. now takes Mr. DreXels place as

A SUNDAY OF SOFT DRINKS.

Is Suspiciously Familiar.
Charleston, July 2.-Tha first Sunday
in Charleston under the new dispensation
was just like all other Sundays The
whilom bar rooms -hadI their side doors
ajar, as they always have, and the same
familiar faces of the usual Sunday hab-
itues were to be seen in the same old
places The character of the tipple they
took is purely a matter of conjecture.
The only visible signs of drink were those
that are called soft. There is, however,
a strangely familiar favor about the rice
beer that has come into fashion, favor
that savors strongly of the palmetto brew,
and which is said to have the endo=e-
ment Of the governor.
The records of the police station last
night do not show any difference from
the usual Saturday night record. Most
of the negroes in the city have laid up
supplies for week or more, and until
this is exhausted, a comparison cannot be
made as to the Improvement or otherwise
of the morals of the community.
The county board of control meets to-
morrow, it is said, to pass on the subject
of dispensary for Sulliyans Island. 1t
is also thought that they will endeavor to
establish a dispensary here, but if they
do this it will be against the wishes of a

Chicago, July 2.-Sam Fielden, Michael
Schwab and Oscar Neebe made their first
appearances at a public meeting since their
release from Joliet, at Zephas' hall, corner
of Lake and Desplaines streets, last
night. The occasion was the celebration
OF the German festival of Commers by
Brewers Union No. 18. Neebe was one
of the organizers of the union, and he and
the other two were honorary guests of
the evening. The three men took no part
in the programme, still adhering to the
rule of silence.
Robert Steiner addressed the audience.
He extended a hearty welcome to Schwab
and his two associates. He said society
need have no fearof those men or from
others of their belief; that all that was
asked was the right to agitate their .theo-

HoKE SMITH AT AsBURY PARK.
The Secretary of the Interior Given a
Cordial Welcome.

Asbury Park, July 2.-When Rev S.
Edward Young, this afternoon, introduced
Secretary of the Interior Hoke Smith as
a speaker at the national services, there
was not so much as standing room in the
Asbury Park auditorium 1t was the
first time in its history that such q crowd
had assembled in the big building. The
people had come from all parts of the
country to hear Secretary Smith
talk on Childhood" IT." Mr.. Smith
began his remarks by stating that
no engagement should be 50 pressing as to
prevent the expression of a few thoughts
for the benefit of children He dwelt
upon the susceptibility of childhood, and
urged that the physical, mental and moral
man was formed before the age of q, that
we owed it to the present or posterity to
develop improved manhood, and that
this could be accomplished only by
proper attention bestowed upon the
young He expressed the responsibility
of parents, urging them not to be reliav-
ed by any expense incurred to employ 9TH
ers who would care for
the training of their offsprings,
but by 4 personal attention, by
their own time given to their children
teaching them and leading them with
the inspiration of parental love. At the
close Of his remarks the audience arose
and gave the secretary a hearty welcome
