LOSSES TO STRIP SETTLERS.
Heavy Damages in Oklahoma by Flood
in the Canadian River.

GUTHRIE, Ok, Oct. 1l.--Now that the
Canadian River has once more receded
into its banks, the full extent of the
damage done by the recent I'M
precedented rise is being learned.
Scores OF buildings were swept
away, many farms actually ruined by
having fences, orchards, etc, washed
away and other damage done that will
cause the loss to run up into many thou
sands of dollars. A large num-
Der of farmers have lost every
thing they possessed and much
suffering will ensue. Only two lives
were known to have been lost but it is
feared that others have persisted, as the
food came unaWares upon scores of
strip settlers encamped along the river.

IRON TRADE STILL DULL.
No Noticeable Improvement in the Stu
alton This Week.

CLEVELAND, o., Oct. 12.-The Iron
Trade Review this week says:
The iron trade has put in another unsat-
isfactory week with little to break the mo-
notony OF weak prices and shrunken de-
maid. The Pittsburg district has furnished
some further assumptions in the past week,
including the Apollo sheet mill and the
Clinton mill, at which iron is being
puddled at 81, and both illustrate the weak
ening hold of unionism among the mills
1t is evident that there will be little So
pudding IL Western mills the coming year.
Some OF the scattering mills that signed
the scale some weeks ago now find
themselves without orders, underbid by
non-uniOn establishments in Pittsburg
and further east. Pittsburg mills
continue to be heard from III Eastern mar
kets, taking orders at figures quite below
bids of local mills. Steel rail tonnage IS
still unsatisfactory. Some Struggling orders
are noted and reports are current that $50 at
mill has been cut by some producers The
raw iron market is without incident.

LAWYER WEEKS HAS A HEARING
Case of the Superior Embezz1er Con-
sidered by Costa Rica.

San JOSE, Costo Rica, Oct. 16.-Presi-
dent Rodriguez and his cabinet to-day
hear the arguments in the case Of Fran
lis H. Weeks, the New York
embeZzler, on the question Of
his extradition to the United

strain Of the long suspense and is less
cheerful than for months. He hopes
that decision in his case will be
rendered soon and relieve him Of the
fearful anxiety under which he is now
laboring. Minister Baker will go to
Salvador after the decision in the Weeks
case. He will present to the govern
ment office at Salvador the claim of
PennypacYer against that government.

CANNON HAS RESIGNED.
President of the Irish National League
DSgUSt0d,

CHICAGO, Oct. 13.-M. Y. Cannon, in
an interview to-day, admitted that
he handed III his resignation as
president of the Irish National
League of America. 1t was done two
weeks ago, but action has not yet been
taken upon it. Mr.. Cannon referred
10 the ''inanition" of the league
owing to the platform not per-
hitting support to be given to either
faction Of the Irish party across
the water. Enthusiasm could not be
aroused under such conditions,
and there was no incentive for
the collection Of money. Some
thing must be done, he said,
to set the league on right lines or it
must go out of existence. A conven-
ton to take action in the matter may be
called about mid-Winter.
