GREAT DESTITUTION.
Fifteen Thousand People Homeless
In British Columbia.

VANCOUVER, B. c., June 12.-Reports
from the interior say the Frazer river
is still rising slowly. Burglars and
thieves have begun to ravage the flood
ed districts. A careful estimate by the
dominion government of the losses and
losers by the flood show that fully 49,
600 people are homeless. 1t is not yet
possible to calculate the financial loss.
The greatest damage is in the district
hundred miles long between Landers
and Yale. There are 1000 homeless in
the Delta municipality, corresponding
to our country, 800 in Long, 1000 in

The Frazer River Tearing Along at
Fearful Rate.
VANCoUvER, b. c.. June 9.-The Fra
ger river is still rising slowly at West
minister, but the worst is believed to be
past, At up river points it is falling.
At Lytton it has gone down twenty
seven inches. A cloudburst caused
100 acres of land to slide into the river
near Ashcraft.
The most serious interruption was
caused by the cloud burst mentioned.
1t swept the railroad nine miles, from
the saw mill flats to Lytton, taking out
the approaches to the government
bridges at Ashcraft and Spencer sta
ton. The water tore down the noun
tain sides with an incredible velocity
and sent the river leaping over it's
banks in a boiling current. This great
body of water is yet to be felt on the
lower river. Men from the upper river
bring sad stories of death and devasta-
ton. The settlers are floating on RATS
with families and are being rescued by
steamers. Food is exhausted; thousands
starving. Floating houses with people
on them, RATS with cattle on them
and villages with nothing but the roofs
of houses showing are common sights.
Indians are bivouacking in the mean
time with nothing to cover them eX-
cept their blankets. They are living
on cattle dragged from the stream as
they float by.

Italian chamber of deputies, has writ
ten to Secolo describing the condition
of the mining population of Sicily,
which, he says, is most desperate.
Thirty thousand miners on the island
are starving and hopeless of improve
ment. They are threatening to burn
the crops on the various estates, and
declare that if they are compelled to
die of hunger others shall share their
fate. Many miners are turning rob-
bers, and the brigandage has assumed
alarming proportions.

BUSINESS rs BETTER.
IMPROVEMENT IN TRADE CON
DITIONS
In Spite of Coal Strike and Floods the
Outlook Is Brighter-New York Clear
ances Good-Failures Fewer Than .
Year Ago.

New YORK, June 1L-R. G. Dun &c
Co. IS Weekly Review of Trade says:
The outlook for business seems a
little better on the whole, though the
improvement is not great. 1t is some
what encouraging that the decrease
in payments through clearing houses
is but 24.3 per cent for the first week
of June, 27.2 at New York, but only
1874 elsewhere. The decrease in com
parison with 1892 is about 30 per cent
Railroad tonnage is larger than year
ago in live stock and moderate in
cereals, but considerably smaller in
coal and iron products and in other
manufactured goods west bound.
Speculation in products has turned
toward higher prices, and wheat has
risen cents with an official state re-
port of injury in Kansas, which is
high favored enough even for Farm
er's alliances. The actual receipts at
western ports have been 2,34s, 391
last year, and the Atlantic exports
only GA, 39S bushels against 1888, =
955 last year Corn rose "a cents,
partly in mere sympathy, but with
more substantial accounts of injury,
the western receipts having been
2,S65, 459 bushels, against 3,545, POI last
year. Pork products and coffee are
unchanged, and cotton is steady at
$7.3 with slender receipts, in spite
of the decline in exports, and
visible stocks here and in Europe
amounting to 2,735, AL bales against
ARA, 6O7 last year, more than enough
to supply the worlds requirements for
four months. According to the esti-
mate of the Financial Chronicle the
acreage this year increases 500, 600, or
3,O7 per cent, indicating larger crop
with favora BILE weather
A report that the cotton mills have
this year pr oduced within per cent
of their full capacity does not CORE
sgond with the known takings of
spinners, but if true indicates pro-
duction far in advance of the demand
for consumption. The market for
goods is dull and weak, with further
reductions in price and stocks visibly
accommodating. Sales of wool in the last
five weeks have been 16, 949, 49o pounds
at three chief markets, against IL, S17-,
900 last year and 26, 796. $50 in the
same weeks of 1892. Manufacturers
are greatly embarrassed by scantiness
of orders, and it is apprehended that
quantities of goods made abroad in
expectation of a reduction in duties
before this time may be forced upon
this market.
The returns of failures are still en-
cauraging, 2i6 in the United States for
the week, against 322 last year, and
forty in Canada against twenty-seven
last year The liabilities in all fail
ures reported in the month of May

TAWNEy sTKIKE BILL.
Is Introduced Friday-Free from tho
Usual Com plications.

WASHINGTON, Junet1 - Since the re.
cent strike on the Great Northern rail-
road Congressman Tawney of Mime
apolis has given the subject of
the settlement of controversies of that
natuae by arbitration careful consid-
GRAFTON and yesterday introduced a
bill looking to that end 1t creates
no new officers, but utilities the
Circuit courts in carrying out
it's provisions. 1t applies only
to controversies between railroad
companies doing an interstate bust
ness and their employees. Under the
provisions of this bill when a contro-
versy exists between a company and
its employees, which impedes or
threatens to impede the trans
portation of passengers or prop
erty or mails, either party, by
fling a petition, may secure from
the Circuit court citation directing
the other party to the controversy to
appear and answer. If neither party
exercises this right, either before or
within reasonable time after a strike
occurs, it is made the duty of the dis
trict attorney of the United States
upon the request of any board of arbi-
tration to bring the parties into court
for the settlement of the dispute.
Upon the consent of the parties it be-
comes the duty of the court to hear
and determine the controversy in the
same manner at would hear and de-
termin any other matter properly
brought before it. If the parties do
not consent to the court hearing the
controversy board of arbitration of
fine members is to be appointed, to
whom the matter is referred.
