export. The amount exceeds 5000

called for by the Bank Of Montreal.

Acting Secretary Curtis says the
withdrawal indicates nothing more
than desire on the part Of the Amer
lean importers to pay their debts as
they fall due. the export Of gold at
this season being occasioned by the
liquidation Of foreign accounts. The
shipping of gold to the Montreal bank

THIS FROM QUEBEC.


4
In Utter Darkness
From the ancient city of Quebec.
Canada. comes news which should
gladden. the hearts of the protection
lists. 1t appears that an electric street
railway is being constructed in that
city. but is vigorously opposed BY the
cab drivers. carriage builders and
blacksmiths. who fear that the new
road will niure their business.
Recently delegation from these
trades appeared before the mayor OF
the city and protested agains. the coL-
struction of the proposed electric rail-
way. The mayor received them coldly
and pointed out that the new road
would increase traffic and employ more
people than are at present given work
by the cab and carriage owners.
Who says that protection notions are
not spreading? What. though France.
Russia. Australia and New Zealand
have lately given evidence that they
are advancing out of the dark
ness OF the high tariff delusion? What
does that amount to. as compared
to the gratifying fact that the Quebec
cab drivers, etc. are opposed to the
march of modern improvements and
new Inventions? The party which
sticks to the old exploded doctrine of
shutting out competition by prohibi-
tive tariffs must welcome as allies men
who wish to prohibit the competition
of cheaper methods of transportation.
Truly the cabmen and blacAsmiths Of
| Quebec are good protectionists.

ugc
CASTER. Wyo.. Aug "a terrible
cioud-burst occurred south Of this city
on Casper mountain, ~ the head u
OF Garden creek. Wednesday night.
The creek is about seven miles long
from mouth 10 source, and Is lined
with campers Near the head OF the
crces is summer resort frequented
by local picnic parties. and IS credited
with being one of the most beautiful
spots in central Wyoming.
The first thing the food reached was
the pleasure resort at the head Of Gar
den creek. Az this point all the build
ings were crushed and swept away.
and the original site Of the hotel at
this point is buried beneath debris
twenty or more feet deep
From here the water followed the
course Of the creek and demolished
everything in its path. Judging from
water marks. volume of water forty
feet high and thirty rods wide must
have passed a narrow dcfile about two
miles from the mountain proper.
Without warming. this great Hood
of water. in its rush down the side of
the mountain, found many campers up
and down the creek. either sleeping or
just about ready to retire for the night
: Newly and his family had re-
tired. when all at once they were
surrounded by water and race for
life commenced.
Newly says that he heard his wife
scream for help; he grabbed for but
missed her. and the next second he
was being carried on bv great rush
of water. That was the last he saw Of
his wife or babe. Newly grabbed the
limbs of floating tree and after float
ing about forty rods was thrown on a
bank. Mrs Newly was found yestcr-
day morning beneath pile OF debris
The baby has not been found.
Near the Newly camp was camped
Samuel Harrison. lately % Alliance.
Neb. Harrisons two children were
caught in the food and carried away
by the mad waters. The bodies of
the children were recovered.
Some idea of the force of the torrent
can he formed from he fact that in
the first two miles of its course FIVE
hedges of rock are To- be fonnd. These
lodges are twenty-five feet high. In
the first one are powders torn from
the mountain side that will weigh fifty
tons. Trees two feet in diameter
were torn up and carried away.
The tents and wagons OF all the
campers up and down the creek were
destroyed, and at least fifty persons
escaped with nothing but their sleep
ing garments Food and clothing are
being sent to the unfortunates by the
citizens of Casper.

At best the Chicago authorities do
no. believe Allen, alias Hatch can give
information that will develop evidence
that will prove murder. and they say
his statements are contradictory and
that the evidence of his having had
absolute knowledge Of murders com
mitted by Holmes is decidedly weak.
Attorney Capps has convinced them,
however, that there is proof Of the
identity Of the prisoner a. A. r. Allen,

II is now clear that the police have
