and drowning many people. So far SO
corpses have been recovered. The dam
age to property is tremendous.
The great Bousey dyke of Epinal. dis
trict of Vosges. 1t now appears, burst
at o'clock this morning. The cubic
area of the dyke is 100000 metres, and
there was a great rush of waters for
ward 1t Is impossible at this hour to
get an estimate of the damage done or
the number of lives lost but from the
number of bodies already found the in
dications are that the loss of life will
be very heavy. Railways in all direc-
tons are interrupted, and a large num-
Der of villages entirely flooded. In some
places entire houses We're swept away
and large trees torn up by the roots.
The reservoir was close to the village
of Bousey, and connected with the Ca
nal de Leste. The breach caused by
the rush of waters is over 100 metres
broad. Everything possible is being
done to rescue the imperiled persons.
Many families are in danger. The au-
thorities are also taking steps to provide
/
supplies will be sent fl ON the nearest
point.
The villages which suffered most were
| Bodsente, Les FORCES, Budegney and
Domevres. Many houses completely
disappeared.
1t seems that the disaster caused by
the bursting of the dyke at Bousey is
more serious than at first supposed. In

The village of Bousey, with It's extern

appeared. The steep vertical banks Of
the canal De LEST burst and emptied
a reach of water IL kilometers long in
the Avicre valley, in which flood No
moxy was caught, after which 1t flowed
into the river Mozelle.
At Darneillues all the houses were
destroyed and a few were spared at
Auxioures. Hundreds of families have
been rendered homeless and many who
were asleep at the time lost even their
clothes.
The reservoir consisted of q wall of
masonry 20 metres high and 20 metres
thick at its base. The damage done by
the flood, it is believed. will amount to
S1000O,000.

ENGLAND HAS MADE BITTER FOES
Occupation of Corinto May Cause Boy
cott on British Products.

Occupation of Corinto May Cause Boy
cott on British Products.
Managua, Nicaragua, via Galveston,
April 29.-The commander of the Near
aguan troops on the mainland of Near
aqua reported at o'clock this morning
that the British flag was still floating
over the public buildings of Corinto,
and the port remained in possession OF
the British vessels. Among the Near
aguan troops and the populace great ex-
element prevails and the feeling
against Great Britain Is increasing in
bitterness every hour. Nicaraguan
troops are still massed along Paso Ca
ballo. and it is believed they may open
fire upon the British IL the latter make
any attempt to cross from Corinto to
the mainland. Steps have been taken
to destroy the means of communication
with the interior should such action be
found necessary.
The British consulate at this city re-
mains under guard in view of the riot
ing and stone throwing which has al
ready occurred and in anticipation of
further trouble. Some European con-
suls are using their good offices with the
government to persuade it to submit to
Great Britain, pleading in support of
this argument the fact that the United
States has determined to remain neu-
trail and Nicaragua is helpless when
opposed to such a power as Great
J Britain.
Although the Nicaraguan forces op-
posite Corinto are in communication
with the capital actual Geographic COM
munication with Corinto remains in
| terrupted and it is thought likely that
/ there will be no attempt to repair the
| telegraph lines as long as the British
are in possession of the Port.
In spite of reports to the contrary
the people of Nicaragua generally sus-
tain the government in the stand it has
taken against Great Britain and though
in all probability Nicaragua may event
ually be compelled to pay the indemnity
demanded, 1t is believed the trade OF
Great Britain with Nicaragua and othel
Central American republics will suffel
in consequence of the action of thu
British fleet at Corinto. The British
government in command at Corinto hal
charge of the custom house, but as thu
| Nicaraguan government has declared
the port closed it is difficult to see how
Great Britain will be able to keep tn
! custom dues there.

Managua, Washington and Lon
don to Consider It.
1T WILL COVER THREE POINTS
Payment of the Indemnity. Evacuation
of Coriuto and a Mixed Com.
mission of Arbitration.

Managua. Nicaragua. April pa
proposition of compromise and for inn
mediate evacuation of Corinto by the
British is now under consideration be-
tween Washington, London and the
the authorities here.
The proposition embraces the follow
ing essential points: First, Nicaragua
is to pay $500 at London within two
weeks; second, the British forces are
to be Immediately withdrawn from Cor
into without waiting for the two weeks
to elapse; third, mixed commission Of
arbitration is to pass on the demands
of Great Britain's excess of the $77,500
claim, such commission to be consti-
tuted in a manner satisfactory to the
United States and Nicaragua.
The foregoing terms. 1t is believed,
will be accepted by President zelaya
and his cabinet 1t Is understood that
the suggestion of a settlement came
from the Nicaraguan representative al
Washington and it is believed such an
adjustment will be agreeable to the
United States authorities. If Near
agua's acceptance is given the prop
osition will be urged on the London
foreign office and 1t is believed it will
be accepted.

The action of Secretary Herbert may
be attributed to the visit 20 Washing
ton by ex-senator Warner Miller of the
Nicaraguan Canal Company and of
some representations made by him on
the basis of private reports as to the
real condition of affairs in Nicaragua
and those coming from the Nicaraguan
minister directly.
In Mr.. Miller's conferences with Sec
rotary Gresham he presented a very
strong case on the situation and men
ace to American control of the canal.
He brought out clearly the fact that the
British threatened to so to Greytown
and to San Juan del Sur. the two i'm
portant points on the Atlantic and Pa
cific ends of the canal. Miller urged
upon both Secretary Gresham and Sec
rotary Herbert the necessity of pro-
lection to the commission, and also in
dicated that in case of revolutionary
disturbances the United States should
not depend upon the Nicaraguan gov
eminent to protect the property. Mr..
Miller said that Nicaragua had been
tranquil up to two years ago, but the
revolution at that time had disturbed
affairs and since then there had been
an unsettled condition. He says the
canal company wishes TO give every
opportunity for the commission tc
thoroughly examine the canal.

CAMPAIGN OF SILVER EDUCATION

Idaho Will Pay Her Share of Expense in
Undeceiving the East.
Boise, April 27.-Idaho's governor, w.
]. Mcconnell, is determined this state
shall pay it's full quota of the expense
of distributing silver literature throur-
out the eastern states, plan for which
will be agreed upon at the western sill
yer conference to be held in Salt Lake
on May Is. The governor today issued
a ringing address to the people of the
state, urging them to make contribu-
tions in the interest of silver. He sug-
gests each official state, county and
other people rs cents each, while those
who can afford 1t are requested to be
more liberal. 1t is likely a neat sum will
be raised in this manner. The state
treasurer is to be made custodian OF
funds which are to be collected through
the newspapers. Money will be sent to
the treasurer of the convention.
RICHARDS is DELIGHTED.
Salt Lake. April 27.-The Tribune has
received a letter from Governor Rick
ards of Montana in which he says:
"The forthcoming silver conference to
be held in your city on May 10 promises
to be a success far beyond our anticipa-
tions and will, 1 believe, prove an initial
step in an aggressive educational cam
paign for free silver. / wish to extend
to you my sincere thanks for the noble
fight you are making in the interest of
practical bimetallism in the columns
of your able journal"

TO PROTECT THE CANAL COMMISSION
Our Warships Sent TO Nicaraguan Ports
to Guard Our Interests.


Washington, April 29.-Some sudden
and unexpected orders issued to the
United States naval vessels this after
noon caused a sensation for a time,
until the purpose Of the orders was ex-
planned. The Alert, which has been
for a month or more at Panama watch
ing the progress Of the revolutionary
movement in Colombia. was ordered
to proceed at once to San Juan del Sur,
the nearest cable port to Corinto, Mic
aragua. The Raleigh, now on her way
from Kingston, Jamaica, to Key West
and expected to arrive at the latter
place at any moment, will find await
ing her orders to sail at once to Grey
town, the eastern terminus of the pro-
posed Nisaraguan canal. The Mont
gomery. now at Mobile. will follow the
Raleigh on May z. with the Nicara-
guam canal commission aboard.
Secretary Herbert explained briefly
the meaning of these orders. He said
the movements of the ships had abso-
lutely nothing to do with the occupa-
ton of Corinto by the British. The real
purpose OF the orders was to guard
American interests in Nicaragua
against a possible revolution. Being
asked what measure of protection the
NicaraguRn commission would receive
in the pursuance of its work of inspect
ing the line of the canal, the secretary
said the Montgomery would remain al
| Greytown while the commission was al
| the interior, and with the two ships OF
| one side and one on the other they
! would surely be forced to protect the
commission and all American interests

MlNTER JONES' STRONG DEFENSE
The Other Side Heard in the Carson
Mint Investigation.


Carson, New, April 29.-Ex-Superin-
tendent Hoffer of the mint was placed
on the stand in the Jones examination
this morning. He showed the books of
the Bullion and Exchange bank, Of
which he is cashier, and proved by them
that Jones had at least $4,000 before
the mint shortage occurred.
H. H. Beck of the Union Reduction
Works testified that James Heney, a
former employe of the mint, but who
the detectives can not find now, had
several times given him amalgam to
cast into bars. This amalgam resem-
bled the regulations of the mint refin-
ing room. Heney represented to Beck
that he was one of the four who had
leased a mine and they did not want the
owner to know how 1t Was. Mr.. Beck
sold nearly SIP, 900 worth of this bullion
to the Bank of California and the Selby
Company of San Francisco, and there
was considerable more that Heney dis
posed Of himself. Beck does not con-
meet Jones with the Heney transactions
