PARIS. Nov. 1.-Telegrams received from
the departments bring news OF further
floods and OF alarming rise in the rivers.
Enormous damage to property has been
done, but no fatality has yet been reported.
The river Seine is still rising and is at
the flood stage. The authorities have dis
patched to Comps and Nallabregues the
artillery wagons from Mines in order to
assist in the work OF relief. The river
Rhone has burst its banks at Lauson, which
is now isolated. The only communication
through many districts is by boat. Troops
have left Avignon to assist in repairing the
Broken banks Of the Rhone.
ROME, Nov. 1.-Several floods are re-
ported to have occurred in Sicily. The
country around Palermo is inundated and
three persons have been drowned.
The Seine has fallen slightly tonight, but
a further rise in the river is feared. The
news received from Lyons this evening is
more disqueting. Many houses are flooded
at Neuvillesur Saone and the river is COW
cred with furniture. The barracks at St.
Lambert is surrounded by soldiers and
prisoners. Half this district is inundated
and numerous factories in Lyons and vicin-
ity are closed.

Mrs r. h. Condor OF Pawnee City deliv-

Friday night. Mrs. Condor is department
president Of the Womens Relief corps. The
intention was to have the meeting In
tent. but the snow storm neCessitated a
change. When the women went to rent the
Grand Army Of the Republic hall the jani-
tor. who was an old soldier and a free
coiner refused the hall thinking he would
be able to stop the meeting, but the women
were equal to the emergency, securing the
Congregational church. The meeting went
on just the same and was a grand sic
cess. The young women of the Mckinley
club were out decked in geld and silver,
representing true bimetallism. The song,
BILLY, the Wonderful Boy" was cheered
with great enthusiasm Mrs. Condor poured
hot shot into the popocrats, and many who
were undecided left the church fully deter
mined to vote for William Mckinley and
protection. At the close OF the speech a
wee tot of a girl presented Mrs. Condor
with a bouquet Prof J. G. Haupt, candi-
date for state senator was present and
delivered a short address on the true doc
trine Of republicanism.

The winding up OF the campaign found
the republicans filling the valley with ali
kinds of noise. The torchlight procession
was several blocks long. Elmwood brought
over a strong marching club. Hon. j. Il.
Strobe and County Judge Spurlock made
some excellent speeches, and the singing
was fine.

TEXAS VOTE IS A PUZZLE
Populists Hold the Balance Of Power, but
Are Uncertain.
THEIR POSITION SETTLES THE RESULT
Both Republican and Democratic
Leaders Assert that Their Re
spcctiNc Candidates VIII
Come out Ahead.

AUSTIN Tex. Nov. 1.-The campaign.
which is now practically closed has been
one OF the most exciting in the history OF
the state for the reason that while the
democrats have been claiming 1t safe all
along the line. the republicans and popu-
lists, with the assistance OF the gold demo-
Gratis, have been making such an interesting
fight that 1t has kept the democrats busy
beating the brush. Now that the election
is within forty-eight hours, the situ-
alton, willie 1t looks as though 1t
was leaning favorably toward democ-
racy, is in such position
as to be problematical. 1t is such
that the populists hold the balance OF power
and whichever way they go will tell the
story and in their present chaotic con-
dition they are the uncertain quantity.
Democratic State Chairman Blake says there
Will be 100000 votes cast in the state Tues
day, OF which number Bryan and Sewall
Will get 275,O00; Bryan and Watson, 90 900:
Mckinley and Hobart, 10000 and Palmer
and BuCkner, 10000
Blake also says the state democratic ticket
VIII win by anywhere from ~ 600 to 20 900
majority Chairman John Grant OF The :e-
publican party who has managed the orcanl-
zation OF the republican party in Texas and
is In touch with every part OF the state.
also hgures the total vote at $50 900, but
claims from POS 600 to 10000 votes COR
the Mckinley electors and the populist state
ticket on the fusion arrangement. Con-
servative politicians figure out that of the
100000 votes the democrats are sure Of
100000 and the fusionists. comprising the
republicans. populists and gold democrats,
are also sure OF 100000. thus leaving 1Ge,-
coo votes as the uncertain quantity. OF
this number 1t is estimated most OF II is
n vest pocket vote that cannot be placed
and 1t is therefore very unreliable and cGn-
not be depended upon
The republican leaders are arranging mat
ters so to have the popuiists and silver
democrats waste their strength between the
Bryan and Sewall and Bryan ana Watson
tickets. in the hope that by this means they
can get the republican electoral ticket safe
in line. If they can be successful In di-
yiding the vote they will undoubtedly gct
tho Mckinley electors
As to the congressional lists, Democratic
Chairman Blake is claiming all thirteen
districts while the republicans claim two
and the populists two. 1t is safe to say that
the democrats will win In all but two dis
tricts. The Tenth and Sixth will so TO the
republicans and pupulss unless wonderful
change takes place tomorrow.

Troubles In the business world.

tion for receiver for a part of the Van
dalia railroad system was filed in the
United States court last evening. This is
the prospective suit that was mentioned
several weeks ago and at that time officials
of the road denied that there would be n
suit for receiver. The suit is brought by
owners and holders of 81 100000 of bonds of
the Torre Haute & Peoria railway, who
allege that there is due to them on these
bonds $3537 together with interest from
September l. 1896. The complafnants in
the case are Mark T Cox and James A
Blair of New Jersey and James w. Paul
of Philadelphia. The date for hearing the
suit VIII be probably fixed for the latter
part of next week.
