he Damage BY Floods.

he Damage BY Floods.
RICHFIELD, July 17-This morning
the sky is clear and the floods are pre-
sumably over. But they have done
terrible work in the many parts of
Sewer county. The little town, or string
of ranches, known as Gooseberry, per-
haps suffered more than any other
part The settlement is in a narrow
valley on the Gooseberry creek. a
branch of Salina creek. The food
covered all the crops, damaging many
OF the buildings and did a great deal
of harm in other ways.
Salina people will lose more from
the harm the flood did across the river
from the town than from the injuries
right in town.
Many acres of grain that was begin
ming to bead was here covered with
sand and rubbish.
Richfeld will lose heavily as will the
people in Vermillion and Aurora. Here
the water ran down from Cedar ridge,
Willow creek and Cottonwood canyons
and carried not less than two hundred
thousand tons of rock, and two hun
dTed loads of drift wood The lower
end OF the Sewer canal is nearly ruined
and will have to be rebuilt
by far the most disastrous floods
were those that struck Monroe Mon
day night was dark and made terrible
with the earthquakes of thunder when
the rain began to fall in torrents In a
few minutes the roar of a terrible flood
was added to the already terrible noise
The stream proved to be from Sand
canyon, and being so heavily laden
with sand would form immense waves
that were six feet high and would then
recede. Many Of the people took shell
ter in houses that We're stronger than
their own, yet with every wave they
would give. The citizens soon formed
relief party 20 go to the suffering
part of town but it could do nothing
until the flood abated.
On Tuesday afternoon another flood
struck the same part of town and ad-
ded to the harm already done. In all
several lots are covered and nearly
every cellar in town filled. Monday
night will long be remembered in Mon
roe and Tuesday afternoon would have
been as bad had it not been light.
On Tuesday afternoon the old reser-
voir southwest of Monroe was filled by
the flood and broke. The stream was
more terrible than ever and hundreds
OF acres were covered with mud. Mon
roe lost $4,000, while the total loss of
the county will aggregate $4,000 from
the hardest and most destructive storm
in the history of the valley

At REPUBLICAN, HEADQUARTERS
No Fears for Mnois-indiana, Missouri
and California Counted as Safe
for McKiniey

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Oct. 2S.-Telephone
messages and personal callers kept the
campaign managers in a constant state of
activity to-day at Republican, National,
State ana county headquarters. The rank
and file of the party were concerned about
the effect which Mr.. Bryan's campaign in
Cook County might have on the election
day result in the city and State. To all
such inquiries the Republican leaders re-
turned the answer that the eleven TIL hour
effort of the Democrats to capture the
majority of the Chicago voters would not
change any material number of votes
already fixed on the Republican side, and
there was no fear expressed at any head.
quarters that stampede was possible.
The big crowds were accounted for by the
fact that this was Chicago's first real
chance to see and hear the Democratic
Presidential nominee, and hundreds OF
Republicans went 10 each meeting chiefly
from curiosity. without having their
voting mind affected in the least by the
arguments of Mr.. Bryan.
National Com mitteeman Jameson of
Illinois, who has been the most conserva-
tive of any party manager here when
dealing with the Republican side of the
situation, said: ~ feel justified in increas-
ing the figures of McKinley's estimated
majority in Cook County as q result of
Bryans visit There is no such thing as
defeat here The Bryan and Altgeld
managers are straining every effort 10
carry Illinois, on the theory that this State
holds the key to the Presidential situation.
The labor vote here for Mckinley will be
bigger than the Democratic managers
have any idea Of. We can allow them 20
per cent of it and win in walk"
Fenton R. McCreery of Michigan, late
secretary OF the legation to Chill, has re.
turned from q stumping tour of California.
He reported that the outlook for McKin-
ley's success in that State was excellent,
because of division in the Democratic
party in view of the money question.
He also stated that General Rosecrans,
commander of the Army of the Cumber-
land, now resident in California. had de-
clared for Mckinley, who served under
the general in the Army of the Cumber-
land.
Mr.. Hanna said he had received infor-
nation from Missouri on which lie based
the claim that the Republicans would
elect the Governor, ma ajority of the Leg
islature which is to name a successor to
Senator Vest, and that the party stood
more than an even chance of getting the
Presidential electors.
The latest reports received by Mr.. Payne
were from Indiana. He said they showed
the German vote was for Mckinley, and
that would save the day If nothing else
did. He called Chairman Campau's table
of the Democratic estimates ridiculous.
As to counteracting the Bryan demonstra-
tions he said the National Committee had
paid no attention to him in this respect
for three weeks.

gain entrance stood on the outside to see
the candidate when he arrived. 1t was
intensely close inside the armory, and a
dozen women succumbed. Mr.. and Mrs.
Bryan reached the armory at o'clock.
As they came on the stage where quar-
tet of young women had Just finished
singing patriotic song, the audience rose
en- masse and cheered with vigor, the
deep tones of the male portion drowning
the shrill cries from the ladies'.
Mrs. Duncanson, president of the
Women's Club, introduced Mr.. Bryan,
who made very brief speech, similar to
those delivered on his tour before other
gatherings of women.
Leaving Mrs. Bryan behind, the candi-
date proceeded to the Transit House, in
the stockyards district, accompanied by
Thomas Gahan, National Com mltteeman
from Illinois, and ex-Mayor Cushing of
Omaha.
The stand from which he spoke was
erected on the south side of the Transit
House, and in the narrow street just in
front OF it great throng had assembled.
The space was badly contracted. A big
livery stable marked the boundary for the
rear of the crowd, which of necessity
spread out over the SIDES for consid
erabIe distance. Twenty-Five thousand is
reasonable estimate of that mass of
sweltering humanity waiting for Mr..
bryan 10 appear.
1t was Ais o'clock when he didcome
and the remarks Tim Cara bine, a loc al
commission merchant, was making were
cut short in the storm of applause that
arose. Mr.. Carrablne introduced him.
handing him a silver horseshoe as he did
so, and the multitude howled again.
The audience was composed principally
OF stockyard men, who manifested wild
approval of some OF the remarks made by
the candidate.
Tonight Mr.. Bryan devoted his efforts
to the West SIDE. His last appearance was
set for 10 o'clock, but he was more than an
hour late in keeping the appointment.
Novathy's Hall, Bohemian Turner Hall,
Pulaski Hall, the mammoth tent and Peo-
pies Institute and the Second Regiment
Armory were visited in turn, and at each
the number of people who endeavored to
obtain admittance far exceeded the capa-
city of the place IN which he spoke.
His greatest reception of the evening in
point of numbers and enthusiasm was at
the mammoth tent. The canvas structure
was not a third large enough to accommo-
date those who sought entrance. and
many thousands of people stood for hours
deeply massed on the outside. patiently
waiting, but unable to see or hear the man
OF whom they had heard so much.
When Mr.. Bryan returned to the Audi
torium annex, after midnight, he went to
bed. to be prepared for his early start to-
morrow morning on his flying trip to
towns near Chicago.

EGG G-THR0WERS PUNISHED.
Released From Prison at the Request of
Mr.. Bryan, but viii Be Expelled
From coHeqe.

CHICAGO, ILL, Oct. 2S.-Two young
men, Chauncey c. Foster and Lewis Han
chett, were arrested this noon for throw
ing eggs at BRYAN during his ride from the
train to Battery D yesterday. They ad-
nit their guilt. Foster is IL years old and
son of a retired merchant. 'Hanche:t is
the same age. His father is vice-president
of the Hanchett Paper Company. The
boys were locked up pending further in
vestigation.
On learning of the arrest of the two
young men charged with being implicated
in the egg-throwing incident yesterday
Bry an wrote to County Chairman Gohan
asking for their release, as he was sure it
was an act of thoughtlessness, and their
arrest had doubtless been a sufficient les
son to them and others.
Principal Powers of the Business Col
lege announces that the boys will be ex-
PEELED from that institution.
On the strength of the written plea for
their release sent by Mr.. Bryan the police
tonight released Foster and Hanchett
from custody with warning not to OF.
fend again, and the young men were taken
home by their fathers Foster adm tilted
to the detectives that he had bought
dozen fresh eggs to throw at the procession
when the Bryan carriage passed the busi-
ness college building. Half of the eggs
were thrown before the youths took fright
and ran from the room.
Mr.. Powers, the proprietor of the school,
announced tonight THAI he would as
semble all the instructors and pupils to-
morrow at noon and publicly dismiss the
egg-throwers in disgrace from the institu-
ton after making few remarks vigor-
ously denouncing the offense and the two
culprits.

trip was the most delightful part of the
excursion. The reclaimed lands on either
side of the river and channel presented
busy scenes in places where gardeners
were preparing for their nightly shipments
OF vegetables TO the San Francisco market.
.'Wnat are those?" asked Reed, as box
after box of great purple eggplant was un-
loaded from wagon. The fastener had
not seen any of such gigantic growth as
are raised on the reclaimed lands near
here. He was also astonished at the
housetops along the river banks covered
with scarlet-colored peppers drying for
market. whose glistening skins looked
redder as the suns rays glanced upon
them. The little steamer churned up the
mud as it moved slowly upstream to avoid
the sadnbars that the people of this section
want the Government to have removed.
The sun was going down toward Di-
abo's top and shed soft red glow over
The long line of grain warehouses that ex-
tend for mile along the channel, and
lighted the windows of the big fiourmilis.
A line of cars of the Valley road stood on
a sidetrack at the citys edge, and the
glare was reflected from the yellow pas
senger coaches. The busy crowd of car
penters at work on the immense bunkers
of the coal stopped to view the passing
excursionists, and the scene seemed i'm
pressed on the guest of the day, for he
made some pertinent inquiries as to the
magnitude of the trade of Stockton and
the volume of trade carried on by water.
The visitors were soon driven back to
their hotel to prepare for the evenings
