o..iy Sigh, Damage by the storm.

The storm OF wind and rain which set
in on Tuesday did comparatively little
damage To railroads aud telegraph
lines, considering its fury. Some
small slides occurred on the
Great Northern shore line, but they
were cleared before the north-bo1nd pas
senger train reached the scene. The te!e-
graph lines suffered only towards the
north, being torn down in places BY
fallen trees, but all were repaired
soon after noon. The telephone
wires were also down south
of Bethel. thanks to the same
cause. but were repaired during the day.
The damage done TO the central telephone
office by the crossing of the wires in the
early morning Was almost entirely re-
paired by the hour ut which business
activity begins and fully so 10y evening.

pepton, Tex, Aug. 25.-In all prob
ability the Bolton Baseball club will in
stltute suit to recover 40 per cent OF
the proceeds OF yesterdays game, No
agreement was entered into by the
clubs as to the disposal of the gate
fees and at the conclusion of the game
the visiting team demanded 40 per cent
as the losers share, which request was
refused. The Denton club maintains
that Bolton was not entitled to even
40 per cent since they had contended
against eharging an admission fee.
Also that the challenge accepted by
Denton contained no proposition as 10
any forfeit or prize. hence the unwill-
ingihess TO pay.
Slidell and Denton will play at the
fair grounds Thursday and it is not
terday'e. both clubs being eoually

COULDN'T CAPTURE 1T.
Gen. Early's Raid Through Maryland
North of This City.

Senator Daniel spoke on THE Valley
Campaign Of Gen. Jubal A. Early before
the survivors of the Army of Northern
Virginia Thursday night, in Richmond. 1t
was an eloquent tribute to the confederate
general Regarding the movement north OF
Washington, he said:
1.-The popular impression that Early could
have captured Washington is only a case
in which the wish was father to the
thought. The city was defended by .W
siege guns, abattis of trees had been placed
before the earthworks, the high banks OF
Rock creek formed a natural fortihcation.
and a series of forts, mounted with heavy
guns, covered all the approaches, and were
so arranged that If one were taken the
other commanded 1t.
Early had but 5000 muskets, while there
were over 20. 400 men in the defenses OF
Washington-erough to defeat him before
Wright's corps and Emory's division ar
rived. If he had taken Washington with
so small q force II would have been futile
and short-llved success. On the 18th OK
July, carrying along with him all the pris-
oners of Monocacy, Early marched to the
Potomac, and on the 14th, crossing near
Leesburg, was again in old Virginia
