The storm In PhiIadelphia.

PHILADELPHIA, April 12.-The violent snow and rainstorm, accompaniedby high winds, which prevailed in this city has about subsided. One-half inch of water equivalent to six inches of snow, and con siderable slushy snow fell. The damage done in this city was of trifling charac- ter. Two omnibus horses were instantly killed by being struck by telephone wire which had fallen across heavily charged electric light wire during the storm.
 Reports from the Delaware bay and river show considerable damage and loss to ship ping and property. At Cedar Beach, on the lower bay, the water rose like tidal wave, and the sturgeon fishermen suffered severely. Six boats were sunk at their mooringS. and nine more were carried a mile inland and deposited in wheatfields and orchards. Twenty-Five nets, valued at 5000, were washed away, and 2S small houses of fishermen were wrecked or car ried to sea. The tide is said to have been the highest since 1878
 The schooner J. Percy Bartram, from Port de Paix, was landed high and dry on the flats near Chester, but most of her cargo had been removed.
 At Cape Henlopen the masts of a wreck ed schooner were seen. It is believed that she sunk recently, but no trace of boats or crew can be found.

Tt is true that the engagement between Miss Tyler and myself is off," he said. 1t was declared off after d talk we had about the attitude of my family, who objected to the match on the ground of my youth. It was question of breaking with my family and marrying her or of giving up the idea of our union. Miss Tyler agreed that the preservation of fam lily harmony was the best thing for both of us. That is all that I can say"

Makes Canada a Rival

He discussed the probability of future amalgamation of the two countries and said Canada must come to us, as we would not go to her, and asserted that the Me kinley law was hastening the union He continued:
 The Wilson bill and the amendments report ed by the senate committee throw over all this advantage and indefinitely postpone political union of the two countries, and, in fact, estab- fish a policy so favorable to the Canadians that Ishould look to sec the growing sentiment for annexation die out. and that in the generation to come we should find ourselves with a grow ing and possibly hostile rival along our entire northern border. This consideration alone, in the broad domain of statesmanship, ought to be in itself the deathblow of the bill.
 The Canadian question woke the senate to brief discussion, and MT. Gray inquir ed what advantages would accrue to the American farmers along the Canadian bor- der if the products of Canada competed on equal terms with his own.
 Senator Hal replied that the farmers in this country ~ Ould derive a general benefit from the extension of the country and the wiping out of the border lines.
 Senator Gray agreed with the senator from Maine as to the desirability of ex- tending trade over the entire continent, but he could not see what specific advan- tage the border farmers would obtain. Senator Morrill, suggested that in case of annexation large amount of immigration which now comes from Canada would re- main there and consume all the products which now come in competition with Amer ican products. Senator Hale concluded his speech after speaking two and a quar- ter hours, and Senator Peffer resumed his speech, which was begun and interrupted laut ThurSdav
