EPINAL, France, April 27.-The
great Bousey dyke of the Epinal dis

twenty-three persons were drowned
At NomeXy eight bodies have been

village of Bauzey, with it's extensive
pisciculture establishment, has dis
appeared. The steep, vertical banks
of the Canal de FEST burst and

which the flood followed to Nomexy,
where it flowed into the River Mos

have been rendered homeless, and
many asleep at the time lost

ervoir which supplies the canal is
situated at Bbuzey, and was formed
by a dyke 500 meters long. 1t was
built during the years from 1879 to
1884 and was strengthened in 1883 and
1889. 1t consists of wall of masonry
twenty meters high and twenty
meters thick at its base. The founda-
ton was nine meters deep. The bed
of the reservoir is of natural rock.
The dyke was regularly Inspected, ana
no signs of weakness have been de-

The damage done by the flood was

1t Only Complexities and Does Not
Settle the Trouble.
e WASHINGTON, April 27.-The an
iiouncement from Colon of the
closure of Corinto by the Nicarag guam
government is exactly what was ex-
pected by the South American diplo-
matte representative here, although
1t has probably taken the administra-
ton by surprise. AS Interpreted here,
it means that the Nicaraguan govern
sraent, with an intention to circumvert
the British; have withdrawn from CO.
.finto the privileges of port of entry.
1t is expected that the entire business
Of the port will thus be transferred to
San Juan del. Sur, ai-sport lying 100
miles south of Corinto. ssssse.ss
1T is undeniable that this action by
the Nicaraguans threatens very seri-
ously to complicate the already deli
cate question. If the British can in
duce ships to discharge at Corinto, and
pay to them the legal duties, the
Nfcaraguans will probably refuse to
permit these goods to enter the in
terror, where the bulk of the consum-
ing population lives. If the British
from customs a sufficient sum of
money to meet the indemnity demand
ed within the calculated period of
time, in this case about thirty days,
the result may be hard to foretell. II
they felt it necessary to continue the
occupation of Corinto for an indefin-
lite period, they would be guilty of
violation of the assurances that they
have given our government The only
resort would appear to be an extern
sion of the occupation to San Juan del
Sur, or to any other Pacific ports that
may be opened in place of Corinto,
and this would probably be obnoxious
to. us.as Interfering with our trade at
least, If for no other reason. 1t is
feared that the affair is rapidly assum-
Ing. more serious phases, and is shap-
ing itself SO that our government may
be. sembroiled against its own desires.
DIR: Guzman communicated officially
to Secretary Gresham this afternoon
the news he had received by cable
from Managua of the landing of the
British at Corinto, and the abandon
ment of the town-by the Nicaraguans.

HASTINGS, April 27.-At the for

with the national colors floating to
the breeze, decked the residences and
business houses of her public-spiriteG
citizens. At the speakers stand, cor
ner Third and Sibley streets, Kleist's
Second regiment band discoursed
choice music,and addresses were made
in connection with that of the gov
ernor by Hon. Albert Schaller, of this
city; Rev. Robert Forbes, of Duluth,
chaplain Of the senate; Hon. C. F.
Staples, of Mendoza, and L. III. john
son, of Minneapolis, general North
western agent of the Wisconsin Iron
& Bridge company, builders of the
Hastings high bridge, which is one OF
the finest structures spanning the
river between st. Paul and st. Louis.
The governor and the other distin-
guished visitors, accompanied by
Kleist's Second regiment band, were
met at the depot upon the arrival
of the S:42 train by the city council
and Company e, N. G. S. M, and
escorted to the Gardner, where an in
formal reception was held before the
exercises proper took place. The
state training school band from Red
Wing was present, and made cred
liable showing. At 81 D. m. Col.
Joseph Bobleter, of the Second regi-
ment, arrived, being met by Company
e, and an extended order drill was
given across the river. At 7:33 Com
,pany D, the crack organization of the
state, arrived from st. Paul, giving
a creditable exhibition drill on Sec
ond street. The opening Of the new
bridge greatly facilitates intercourse
withsthe counties of Washington and
Pierce, and will have an immediate
tendency to largely increase the trade
from that direction. The bridge is
built throughout in very substantial
manner, the iron and mason work be-
ing first-class in every particular,
and is the only one of it's kind in
America, and probably in the world,
peculiar feature being the spiral ap-
proach at the south end. The large
span is $50 feet in length and is cal
culated to carry 25612 tons besides
its own weight, and the smaller span
more in proportion. The beautiful new
structure will stand as a lasting mon
ument to our citizens, and the thanks
of the community are due to Mayor

clerk, and members of the city

TOLD OF wILDE,s GUILT.
Witnesses Tighten the Net Around
the Prisoner

LONDON, April 27.-The trial of Os-
car Wilde and Alfred Taylor, charged
with serious misdemeanorS, was re-
sumed at the Old Bailey court today,
with large attendance. Alfred Wood
was cross-examined by Sir Edward
Clarke, Q. c., counsel for Wilde, but
his evidence was not shaken.
Frederick Atkins, described as a va
riety singer, gave evidence as to know
ing Alfred Taylor and others men
toned during the trial. This witness
was also questioned by counsel with
the view of showing that he received
$500 from a foreign count whose yacht
was lying at Scarborough, but the
witness denied having received the
money. After Atkins had repeated his
previous testimony concerning his in
timacy with Wilde, and told how he
accompanied him to Paris as his sec
retary, Sir Edward Clarke severely
cross-examined him, endeavoring to
show that Atkins was a professional
blackmailer, and that he had black
mailed gentlemen at Nice, Paris and
various other places. During the cross
examination, Sir Edward Clarke
asked:
Did you, two years ago, extort a
large sum of money from two Ameri-
cans who were staying at the Hotel
Victoria? ?''
Atkins, in replying, said he had not
blackmailed the two Americans The
names of the Americans alleged to
have been blackmailed did not tran
spire.
When Edward Shelby, the former en-
ploye of the publishers, Matthews &
Lane, was testifying, and was asked
to tell the jury what had occurred in
Oscar Wilde's rooms, the witness pa
thetically appealed to counsel to read
it from his previous deposition, and
thus spare him the shame of repeating
it. Counsel, however, made the wit
ness repeat his story. The day was
occupied by the examination of the
same witnesses who have already been
called to the stand, and the testimony
was of the same character as already
outlined. The trial was finally post
poned until Monday.
