PART OF THE TOWN GONE.

Cloudburst at San Marcos, Tex, Did Great
Damage.
SAN MARCOS, Tex, Sept. 29.-Such
investigation as has been made shows
that no lives were lost as result of
the cloudburst, but it is apparent that
the damage to this town is very heavy.
The whole south part, which fortunate
ly was not very thickly settled, is al
most gone. The houses generally were
small and flimsy and they were fioated
away as if they were boats. People
were rescued from the tops of them and
from trees in boats. Had the rain oc-
CURED at night many lives would have
been lost. The Missouri, Kansas and
Texas and International and Great
Northern roads have lost about mile
and half of track each. The San
Marcos river rose 25 feet in five hours.
Usually it is small stream of three or
four feet in depth.

West Coast Of Mexico Has Suffered
Severely.
CITY OF MEXICO, Sept. 29.-The west
coast of Mexico has been visited by a
tremendous storm which has caused
great damage and CONSERVATION. The
town of Altata, the port of the State of
Sinaloa, is inundated, and the capital
city. Culiacan, has suffered severely.
Many small towns have been
flooded. The little railway from
Altata to Culiacan has been
badly blockaded and washed out and is
in terrible condition. Water poured
into the principal streets of Mazatlan
and created great CONSERVATION, and
new embankments for protection of the
town are torn to pieces by the enormous
waves, impelled by the wind, against
which nothing could stand. Aid was
requested for the sufferers, who have
lost large amount of property.

ESCAPED ALIVE.
Peter E. Rivery. an American
Planter in Cuba, Brutally
Beaten.
Narrowly Escaped Being Shot as
aSpy on Account of His
Nationality.
Foraging Force of Spaniards Sur
prised by Cubans and Many
Killed.

NEW YORK, Sept, GA special to
The Herald from Santiago de Cuba says
Vice Consul Hyatt has entered an ener.
getic protest in the case of Peter E.
Rivery, all American planter maltreated
by Spanish guerillas ON his coffee estate.
La Esperanza, near st. Louis, OH the
road to Bayamo. During his protest to
the Spanish officer in command of the
guerillas against the destruction of his
fences and property by the lattcr's
forces, Rivery was abused and led ont
to be shot summarily. The timely in.
tervention of Spanish scout, who
pleaded with the officer and vouched for
Rivery's neutrality, alone saved him.
Even then the guerillas were so en-
ragged that, in defiance of the oftic er's
orders, they brutally beat vlvery with
their machetes and before leaving his
plantation tore down the American flag
over his residence, warning him not to
display it again.
All Americans Spies.
All Americans, the guerillas said,
were rebel spies, and if not openly aid
ing the revolution were doing SO Sc
cretly, consequently they ought all to
be shot wherever found by the Spanish
troops. Rivery was born in New Or
leans He is of French extraction and
came to Cuba some years ago to assume
control of property left him by his
grandfather who died in Martinique.
He is highly respected by the better res
ident element and is i'll nowise suspected
of sympathy with the revolution.
The Spanish colonel in command at
St. Louis apologized to Rivery for the
outrage done him, and expressed his
personal regret at the insubordinate
acts of the unruly guerillas in the field

Northern Steamship company, her own
ers, has discharged every member of

the offender, they have discharged
every engineer on the ship, although at
the time of the occurrence the men were
laid off for the winter and were living

AN UNRELIABLE REPORT.

Butte.
BUTTE, Mont, Sept. 29.-The story
has been sent out from Leadville that
great reinforcements for the strikers
were on their way from Butte to that
city and that a reign of terror was to be
inaugurated. The report is as baseless
as it is outrageous. So far as known
not single miner has left Butte for
Leadville since the trouble broke out
there, and certainly no large numbers
have gone, as is alleged in the dispatch
from Leadyille.

a small strip i'll the southeastern por.
tion along Big Stone lake. In 1854 the
towns of Travare and Wilmot were in
the contest, and after the vote was
taken both places claimed the records.
After they had been stolen several times
by the partisans of each town. and one
time carried out of the state, or ter.
ritory at that time. to Browns Valley,
Ninn., they were finally taken by a
we'll armed party from Wilmot, who
secured most of the records and took
them to Wilmot, where they were held
under guard while an act of the legisla-
ture was secured declaring Wilmot to
be the county seat, This action was the
crowning> victory at that time, but may
now be the very cause of the records
being removed from Wilmot.
In the present contest petition was
secured bearing 900 names asking the
commissioners to submit the question
to the people at the election this year,
the contesting towns being Wilmot and
Sisseton. The county commissioners
refused the petition on a technical
point, hence the order of the court.

LEADvILLE, Colo, Sept. 29.-With the
camp under practically military rule
and pickets stationed at various points
over the great area it is often diffiult to
obtain definite news of the skirmishes
that occur nightly between the rioters
and soldiers. The shooting at the Hot
Air property, which created much ex.
citement during the night, proved to be
no more serious than dozen other
bloodless battles thut have occurred.
Four shots were first fired at q picket,
who returned the fire. Some of his
comrades came to his aid and q dozen
or more shots were exchanged without
effect. The shooting at the Bohn mine
was done by a sentry, because man
refused to obey the order to halt. Other
shots heard during the night are thought
to have had a similar origin.
All sorts of rumors are in the air all
the time. 1t has been reported that an
other party of Missouri miners is Ell
route, but this is positively denied by
the mine managers.
May Compromise the Strike.
Among the citizens the engrossing
topic is the probable action of the COM
mittee of five appointed at the strikers
meeting Saturday evening to consider
whether or not it would be best to con.
tinue their fight or take measures
toward reaching a specific settlement
One of the strikers confirmed the
rumor in a conversation had with him
What do you think the committee
of five is going to report?" He was
asked.
Its hard to tell" he replied. ANY
way, the whole thing is preliminary. 4"
Despite the secretiveness of the mem
bers of the union reports of their doings
continue to become semi-public prop
erty. Those who are anxious to return
to work occasionally forget their pledges
of secresy regarding what is going on
within their ranks. From an authori-
tative source, it was learned that as the
committee created at Saturdays meet
ing now stands two are in favor Of ad.
vising an attempt to make terms Of sur
render, while three are in favor Of con.
tinuing the strike in its present quies.

HUBBARD BROS, q co.'s. LETTER

HUBBARD BROS, d co.'s. LETTER.
New York, May Especially The
strength of the market has at last
extended to the fall months and Sep
TENDER and October have advanced
to-day relatively on covering de-
mand from the short interest, and the
idea, which we have already express
ed, that the movement on the bull side
was strong enough to advance the
summer positions to such a place that
the distant position would be found
TO feel it's influence. Our local traders
have therefore been shy of being short
of the market, and have rather looked
for the short interests to be forced to
cover, because of the strong statisti-
cal position in this market. Crop adj
vices could hardly be better, but they
are without influence upon prices,
which are governed entirely by the
demand to cover short contracts. Our
market closes firm at the best prices
Of the day and the trade looks for a
further Improvement tomorrow, be-
lieving that the entire short interests
will be compelled to cover before the
advance is over.
