LUVERNE, Minn., June THE work of
yesterdays storm is more serious than was
first reported. Hundreds Of cattle. horses,
sheep and hogs were drowned along the river
bottom. The width Of Rock river was from
one to three miles, and many fields Of wheat
are ruined. The water began to concentrate
from all directions, and at II o'clock calls
for help could be heard along the river. Rats
were hurriedly prepared and rescuing crew
started after the perishing families who had
sought refuge on housetops and trees. The
water rose so rapidly and the current became
so strong that the rescuing crew were capsized
into the water and barely escaped with their
own lives. A second crew started out and
landed all safely on shore. Several people
have been reported drowned among them be-
ing ]. w. Catterson, Of Ash Creek, farm

Barcelona In a Panic Over an An
archistys Work.
BARCELONA, June IA bomb was thrown
into the crowd during the Corpus Christi pro-
cession today, and it's explosion resulted in
the killing of six persons and the injury of
fifty. The perpetrator of the deed is as yet
unknown, and his motive is equally mys-
terry.
The news of the throwing of the bomb into
the procession Of Corpus Christi spread like
wildfre over the city, and caused a panic
amongst the great crowds drawn to the
streets by the religious festival and the Sun
day merrymaking usual to the city.
The explosion occurred just as the Corpus
Christi procession was entering the beauti-
full and ancient church Of Santa Maria Del
Mar. This is in one Of the most thickly pop
ulated quarters of this populous city. The
sound of the explosion and the distressed
cries of the injured and the friends of the
killed created an indescribable panic among
the great crowd. The people were terror
stricken with dread of other bombs being
thrown, and it was with difficulty they were
restrained from crushing each other in the
stampede.
A terrible scene ensued today after the ex-
plosion of the bomb near the Church of
Santa Maria Del Mar. Seven corpses and
forty. persons severely injured were found to
be lying around. The great excitement con-
tinues unabated throughout the city.
The police have picked UP thirty fragments
of bombs in the street.

SOME CONSERVATIVE FIGURES,

SITUATION LOOKS AT PRES
ENT.
LAST FEW DAYS HELPED OUT.
The Only Chance for White Metal L,
Compromise, and That's Hardly
Possibility

Inc Democrats of Minnesota at the con-
vention in this city next Thursday. will
probably pass sound money resolutions. While
a good many counties will send delegates
uninstructed, it is believed that enough will
be chosen to carry the convention for a single
gold standard. The county conventions held
Saturday helped out this view of the situa-
ton. all the counties sending the larger num-
Der of delegates having instructed their dele
gates to oppose an expression of sentiment
In favor of silver. This with the exception
OF Washington county. washIngton's dele
gates come uninstructed. and 1t is under
stood the members of the delegation are
divided in their opinion on the subject.
81 do not think the convention will pass
any free silver resolution" said a conserva-
tive sound money man last evening. The
gentleman is sufficiently well acquainted with
the Democratic politicians of the state to
know about where most of the dele
gates stand. That is, the sentiment of
those who come uninstructed. 81 have fig
ured 1t out" he continued "and, giving the
silver men all the doubtful ones, / estimate
that there have now been chosen to attend
the convention as delegates 352 who are in
favor of the single gold standard. That leaves
SSS doubtful. or in favor OF free silver. and
1l2 to be chosen. The latter includes Hen
nepin county's delegation, and l am GER
tain that Hennepin is not going to send a
free silver delegation, nor delegation in
which there will be a majority in favor Of
free silver. 1t looks TO me as II the senti-
ment will be pretty evenly divided. but that
the gold men will be in a majority
Another gentleman speaking about the
probable outcome Of the convention, took a
much more positive sound money view than
the above figures. He said that in his opin-
ion the last few days developments settled
all possibility of the silver men getting con-
troll Of the convention. In his opinion, they
would be in a minority and, while it was
possible that they might try to get some
kind of a compromise resolution through.
he doubted even that.

SHORT "1oNG SESSION.
Congress Has Kept It's Promise to
Do Nothing.

WASHINGTON, June If as now seems
probable, the first session of the Fifty-fourth
congress adjourns this week, 1t will be the
shortest so-called "long session" since that
of the Thirty-fifth congress, and one of the
shortest in the history of the government.
This record is probably partly due to the DO
Htical difference between the senate, house
and president, which has forestalled agree
ments on lines of legislation, and partly to
the determination with which the Republi-
can leaders in the house have carried into
effect Speaker Reeds caucus prediction that
the congress would be a do-nothing assem-
blage. Legislation means appropriations, the
house leaders have said, and as their opinion
was that the treasury's condition warranted
no appropriations except the most Imperative
ly necessary, they have held the doors tight
ly shut against classes of bills which usually
receive the parings. Foremost among the in
evitable and regular acts Of congress are the
annual appropriation bills for the support of
the government. Their preparation has con-
stituted large part of the work Of the ses-
sion, and five of them are yet hanging be-
tween the house and senate with some of
their details unsettled. For this reason it is
impossible to give the exact totals of the
bills or the grand total of appropriations
made by this congress. which aggregate
about half a billion dollars, but the disburse-
ments authorized during the session will be
discussed hereafter by Chairman Cannon, of
the appropriations committee, and ex-Chair-
man Savers from the points Of view of their
respective parties.
Tariff OF financial legislation Of any gen.
eral character was abandoned for all practi-
cal purposes when the disagreements between
the house and senate were demonstrated by
the fate of the two bills prepared by the
lines of business were also tabooed by the
house. because of the alleged lack of revenue,
notably public buildings, public and private

CLAPP,s FRIENDS REJOICE,
But CIough's Friends Also Feel First
Rate.

Friends of Moses Clapp were rejoic-
ing yesterday, and one of his managers
was pleased to say that they consid-
cred the morning Republican organ
had helped Clapp's prospects by at
tacking his candidacy. why" said
he, you cannot recall more than one
instance out of twenty in which that
newspaper has supported a winner
There are some folks who say that
it did not get onto the Doran band
wagon until after the election. We
are really glad that it's opposition has
been uncovered. Now we mean to go
ahead and show just what Clapp can
do"
A different view was taken by
friend of William E. Lee, who said:
Both the Clapp and Clough men are
making a grave mistake in attempt
ing to secure a solid delegation from
Ramsey county for their man. Mr..
Lee has proved very good friend to
ST Paul, and so have Van SAINT and
Gibbs for that matter A further mis-
take Is being made when those chaps
assume that Clough and Clapp are the
only two men in the race. I'll wager
that the three outside men will decide
among themselves as to who shall be
the candidate, on the final show
down."
