POCATELLO, Ida, Feb. 7.-One of the
heaviest snow storms experienced for
years has been raging in the Wood River
country for the past two weeks, and
snow to the depth of from five TO eight
feet on the level is reported at HALEY,
Ketchum and other points on Food
river. Roads are all drifted full of snow
and are impossible and communication
with settlements distant from the rail
road is to be had only by means of cour-
iers on snow shoes, as the heavy winds
have Frustrated the telephone lines and
rendered them useless. Much anxiety is
felt for miners and others in the interior,
as a storm of this magnitude is very fire.
uuently attended with fatalities and
works great hardship upon the residents
in the more remote districts. Immense
snow slides are TO be witnessed daily
from the town of HALEY and are an i'm
posing sight.
The Union Pacific has so far succeeded
in keeping their branch line to Wood
river open by the presence of a rotary

AT BOUND BROOK.
High waters Play Havoc With
Property in General.

High waters Play Havoc WITH
Property in General.
SOMMERVILLE, n. J., Feb. L
While the loss of property to Bound
Brook last night by fire and food will
come up to expectation, it is now rea-
sonably certain that but one life was
lost. A man named Miller entered a
row boat, intending to rescue a family
whom the rising waters had driven to
take refuge in the upper part Of their
home. The swift current upset the
boat and Miller was not seen again
Last night when the last messenger
left Bound Brook, the flood had begun
to subside. The water had spread
backward from the river thousand
feet Residents in the submerged sec
ton have been forced to take refuge
in the upper stories of houses.
At 5 o'clock this morning the water
was nearly ten feet high on Main
street The food was caused by a
heavy rainfall overlooking Raritan
river. Meadow Brook, about a quarter
of a mile from the heart of Bound
Brook, also was overlooked. The sur
rounding country for quarter of a
mile on each side of the heart of the
village was flooded. and while citizens
were trying to rescue the people from
the houses, fire was discovered in a
lumber yard of l.. B. Cook & Co.
Somerville and Plainf1eld were asked
for assistance. Engines were started
for Bound Brook, but the roads were
impossible The fire had simply to
burn itself out. 1t is thought that
twenty houses have been destroyed by
fire and food.
People driven from their homes took
refuge in the Presbyterian church. A
fire spread to that edifice and the in
mates were obliged to leave it, All
escaped. There are reports current of
loss of life in Bound Brook beyond that
of Miller, but the source of the rumor
cannot be ascertained
Telegraph operators in the Lehigh
Valley and Central railroad depots for
time sent messages while standing in
water up to their knees but they
finally were compelled to leave their
posts.
The water put out the fires in the
Raritan waterworks, leaving Raritan
and Somerville without water.
Raritan river was over TWENTY-FIVE
feet higher than its normal level last
night. The river and canal which
were 200 yards apart before the water
began to rise yesterday afternoon.
were one stream last night. The wool
en- mills of SomervilIe We're f1ooded
and work had to be suspended.

NICARAGUAN CANAL.
COMMISSIONERS REPORT REACH
Es THE HOUSE.
The Dangers to Be Met, the Weak
Points to Be Overcome and Much
Other Useful Information.

WASHINGTON. Feb. 7.-President
Cleveland today sent to the house the
report of the commissioners appointed
under act of congress to make an in
vestigation of the route of the proposed
Nicaragua canal. The salient features
of the document have already been
published. The report contains very
elaborate data respecting the work al
ready done by the company, the physi
cal characteristics of the country, the
dangers to be met, the weak points to
be overcome and various other detailed
statistical information. The report
treats the canal question under three
divisions, VIZ: The eastern, GreytoWn
harbor, the lake and river division,
from Ochoa to the west side of Lake
Nicaragua; and the western division,
from Lake Nicaragua to the Pacific
ocean.
The commissions conclusions are
that all locks in the canal should have
a width of eighty feet, as United States
steamers like the Iowa have a beam
of seventy-two feet; that all streams
affecting the canal route should be
gagged to ascertain regimen and rain
fall observations made at points along
the entire route The construction of
the eastern division on the line pro-
posed by the company is in the main
tenance of the numerous dams and
embankments; the final adoption OF
any route is inexpedient until all
alternative routes have been investi-
gated. Explorations for alternative
routes in the eastern division should in
clude the so-called low-line, on the
left bank of the San Juan to the San
Juanillo and thence to Greytown; and
investigation made as to the practical
bility of extending the canalization of
the river to the vicinity of the Seraa-
pikui by means of comparatively low
dams The cost of the work. particu-
larly in the eastern division will be in
creased in consequence of the heavy
rainfall, but from observations made
its destructive effects on completed
work will be much less than that of
frost in the United States.
The climate of Nicaragua is mild.
equable and humid, and the value OF
labor cheap, but the opening of earth
excavations may be expected to develop
malarial diseases. The volcanic and
seismetic forces are declining and will
not imperiI the stability of the canal.
For obtaining the necessary data for
final project eighteen months time,
covering two dry seasons, and an ex-
penditure Of $550O00 will be required

VIM. III. English .

INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 7.-William H.
English died at his rooms in the Hotel
English at 1875 p. m.
Mr.. English had been i'll with the
grip for two weeks. Several days ago
rheumatism set in and the heart action
became bad. While his naturally
strong constitution gave Mr.. English s
his condition has throughout been con-
sidered grave. The end came even
sooner than was expected.
He died in his workshop. Ever since
he erected the hotel he has had his
office in the corner of the hotel in
which he died. The bedroom was just
off the large room in which he man
aged his estate and in which he
worked and completed his victory.
Within five steps of where he died
We're great stacks of papers relating
to his private business, and other
stacks pertaining to the historical re-
search he made during the last few
years
The news of his death soon passed
over the city and within an hour many
citizens arrived at the hotel to offer
their services to the bereaved children.
DR.. Walling, accompanied by his two
sons (Mr. Englishs grandchildren,
English Walling, aged Is, and Will
loughby Walling, aged 16, arrived from
Chicago at o'clock last night When
it became apparent Mr.. English could
not recover they were telegraphed to
come Immediately.
It was announced, after the children
had consulted with friends of the fam
lily, that the funeral-woud take place
Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock. 1t was
left with MI. Walling to arrange the
details. The burial will 4oe at Crown
Hill cemetery, where Mrs. English is
buried and where Mr.. English some
time ago erected a beautiful family

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. The
steamer Gaelic from Hong Kong and
Yokohama today brought the follow
ing advices:
OF the many changes introduced in
quick succession in Korea, the recent
adoption of the western method of
hair dressing has attracted most at
tention. The king recently issued
proclamation urging the sacrifices Of
the queue and set the example by hav-
ing his own hair cut, the prince royal
following suit. The proclamation ere
ated CONSERVATION both in official and
private circles The minister of edu-
cation resigned and retired to his coun-
try seat, when his protests at the limo
walton were diSregarded. Many lesser
government officials also resigned
rather than sacrifice their locks. The
proclamation excited alarm among the
people at large, but at each of the four
gates of the capital constables are
posted to await the coming of country
people and to compel them to submit
to the BARRIERS who are in wait for
their victims Western hats and coats
are generally adopted by those who
lose their queues. In the rural districts
the Koreans have broken out @nto ac-
tual rebellion at the proclamation.
Many local governors have resigned
their posts owing to their unwillingness
to cut off their queues, and several
hundred people have fled to the noun
tains and as many more are under
arms preparing to attack the Korean
troops.
The rebellion in Formosa is uncheck-
ed. One army of rebels has taken up
its position at Tou-Wei. and another
has assembled at Camphor Mount.
The Japanese troops are confident of
defeating the rebels, but cannot at
tack them in their mountain retreats

Especial to The Herald)
BUTTE. Mont. Feb. 7.-Apropos of
the heated correspondence going on at
present between Governor Richards and
Secretary Olney relative to the bonds
of renegade Canadian Cree Indians in
Montana, Thomas G. Miles, promi-
nent land and cattle owner, today made
public stack Of personal correspond
ence he had with Secretary Blaine and
Sir Julian Pauncefort regarding the
same matters in 1892. The correspond
ence discloses that the Canadian gov
eminent through the efforts of Blaine,
had finally agreed to receive the In
dams at the border, provided they were
brought there, which Mr.. Blaine agreed
to do, and then the whole. matter was
suddenly dropped and nothing more
could be learned until Governor Rick
ards visited Secretary Olney and was
received rather coldly by him.
1t also develops by the correspond
ence made public that the Canadian
government only consented to take
back its Indians after it was learned
that the ranchers of Montana had
formed an organization with the in
tenticn of discriminating the pests
Reports received from different parts
of the state say that the Crees are
spreading smallpox. scarlet fever and
other contagious diseases. and the
question of their removal from the
state is becoming an alarming one.

four one died. The rest, 213, showed
Improvement. OF these. % have been
discharged cured; 81 will, in the opin-
ion of the physicians having the cases
in charge, be discharged cured,
making 80 in all. In 81 cases the pa
tents have been under treatment for
too short a time to enable the attend
ing physicians to say anything except
the patients are better. In 80 cases
the Improvement was only temporary,
but this record means about 40 per

been those of patients with the disease
