OHIO FLOODS.
REPETITION OF RECENT SCENES
IS LOOKED FOR.
River Above High Water Mark and
Yet Slowly Reaching Upwards.

CINCINNATI, July 26.-Though the
Sky is clear here tonight the change
Of temperature, rushing the mercury up
high in the eighties, causes apprehen-
sion of more rain and an accession TO
the food in the Ohio. Reports from
all points above here in the Ohio river
as far as Wheeling show that stream
rising. At Cincinnati at 10 o'clock this
morning the river stood feet 1 inch
above low water mark, having risen
three inches in an hour. There seems
to be no doubt that the Ohio River
Valley railway in the vicinity of Park
ersburg, and the BaNM.lore & Ohio
from Parkersburg east have about re-
sumed traffic. Great forces have been
employed repairing washouts in Ohio
and 1T is fair to presume that all the
roads embarrassed by the floods will
resume tomorrow, except those among
the bad washouts in the Muskingum
valley.

To MY HARP.

Thy sweet, clear notes are heard no more
And hushed the strains L loved so well.
Companion of my lonely hours,
Thy silvery chords have bid farewell.
Still fond remembrance clingS to thee,
And thought flies back to happier days,
When near to thee were those dear friends
Who loved to list to thy sweet lays.
A valued relic of the past,
1 Oft times sit and view thee still.
And think of those who taught me first
Thy soft, melodious notes to fill,
A grateful messenger of love,
Friendships firing ever dear,
Thou still recalIest that glad hour
That 1 remember with a tear.
A gentle hand too, Joined my own,
To rob thee of some merry strain.
AlasI that gentle hand no more
VIII strike those joyous chords again.
Far, far away my native home,
Where dwelt the cherished of my heart.
Sweet Tyre, thou bring st them back to me,
From thee affections ne'er can part.
Methinks at night when all things sleep,
Thy music watts my dreams on high,
Enhancing every sense with joy
Ike some aeollan melody
But silent now thy soothing tone,
And snapped the strings l loved so well
Thy requiem floats upon the breeze,
Thy silVery chords hath bid farewell.
&C. A. Carval.

Gives His Reasons.

NEW YORK, July 26.-The World
this morning publishes the following
signed dispatch from Thomson, Ga,
signed Thomas Z. Watson:
ITO the questions asked me, reply
as follows:
i. VIII run the race to the end.
80. L will make the fight even if Sew
all does not withdraw.
IS. My opinion of the Fifty-second
congress which was arraigLed in my
book, has undergone no change.
a. l am not a political trader, and
will not resign in Sewalrs favor even
if offered a cabinet position.
Having answered your questions,
please allow me to state briefly my
reasons for the replies to questions
Nos. l and 2:
L allowed the use of my name to
save my party from extinction.
In my opinion, the continued exist
ence of the Peoples party is indispen-
sible to the success of free silver. For
me to withdraw would be for me to
sign the death warrant of my party
Ours is the party for free silver, and
we maintained that principle while the
Democratic party in 1892 and 1898 was
making war upon 1T. We do not think
our party should now close up and quit
have partially duplicated our sign
board.
IF the Democrats are so unreason-
able as to refuse us Populists of the
south any recognition at all that fact
would show that the real purpose of the
apparent adoption of our principles is
to kill our party, and not to enact those
principles into law.
IF Democrats are sincere they will
not try to put upon us such terms that
every man in our party at the south
vill feel insulted and Inundated.
IF Mr.. Bryan DID not want our sup
port, Senator Jones had no business at
St Louis at all. If Mr.. Bryan does
want our support, he ought to be will
Ing to adopt the policy which will most
certainly assure him that support, and
that policy is to accept as a running
mate a southern Populist named by the
unanimous voice of the Populist ma
tional convention. Our party has gone
TO the extreme limit of generosity in
the effort to procure union of the
silver forces. We did not claim first
place on the national ticket We are
content with the second

DENVER, Colo, July 26.-The terri
BILE effects of the cloud burst in Clear
Creek canyon above Golden. Colo, last
Friday are still coming to light. To-
night four more bodies were found
among the debris several miles below
Golden. They are of two old men and
two young women, none of whom have
been identified. There is also a report
of eight men, employees of Denver
breweries, who passed through Golden
a few hours before the storm, en- route
to Idaho Springs for an outing. They
have not since been heard from, and
parts of what is believed to be their
wagon have been found. Colonel II.
G. Merriam, commandant of the Uni
ted States troops at Fort Logan, has
detailed 100 of his men to assist in
searching the wreckage for bodies.

sets, member Of the Populist national
committee, stated tonight, when asked
if Massachusetts, would be carried by
the free silverites:
THE free silver movement in my
state has always been underestimate,
but 1 think a majority OF its citizens
are for the white metal. I cannot,
however, estimate what the vote for
Bryan at the coming election will ag-
gregate.
when G. F. Williams returned from
the Chicago convention, where he was
the only Massachusetts delegate to ad-
vocate free silver, there was q demon
stra4ion in his honor, that the Boston
Globe declared to have been the
GREATEST EVER SEEN IN THE
STATE.
This is an indication of the feeling
there. Williams will be the candidate
for governor on the free silver ticket,
and while Massachusetts, has never
been carried by the Democrats in a
presidential year, we think he stands
a good show for election.
Candidates for congress will also
be put UP in each district, but the
greatest fight will be for Bryan"
A meeting Of the Populist national
executive committee will be held to-
morrow H. E Taubeneck and W H

rotary respectively, will also be pres
ent to close up whatever business re-
mains unfinished, and turn the affairs

OBLIGATORY PRAYER.

Apostle Lyman then offered the
dedicatory prayer. In substance it
was: o Lord! we have come to pay
the last mark of respect to our brother,
Abraham Hoagland Cannon; we have
come to lay away that tabernacle
which he received from thee and
which he has kept pure. We thank
thee that we have known our brother,
Abraham Cannon, and labored with
him in thy vineyard. We thank thee
that he has been honored as an apostle
true and successful, and we thank
thee that he has been honored by
thee Now, o Lord, we present to
thee the earthly tabernacle which he
received from thee, carefully laid away
in the earth until the resurrection
morn.
o Lord bless his posterity, bless
his wives, bless his children, bless his
father, bless all his relatives and all
who were near and dear to him in the
ministry. He goes into thy presence
and to the companionship of the
brethren who have gone before, laden
with information of the needs of thy
people on earth, and will make his
report to thee and to them. We bless
the sacred spot of earth where he is
laid and desire that it may remain
forever sacred and undesecrated. We
bless the casket and we bless his body.
AS he fought the good fight, may we
also fight and return to the spotless
and pure as he has done. We dedicate
his body to thee and ask thee to ac
cept the offering.
Apostle Heber ]. Grant then, on
behalf of President Cannon, thanked
all those who had assisted at the OBJ
sequies and dismissed the multitude
with the presidents blessing.

Brother Cannon was faithful in that
glorious work. He was united with his
brethren and united with God. You
found him always full of Intelligence,
fun of counsel. full of wisdom, and full
of love and charity and long suffering.
And yet his heart was as the heart OF
little child in the presence OF God
and in the presence of his brethren He
never attempted to WELD force or 10
bring up contention by argument. HIS
weapons were kindness and persua-
sion. He spoke the truth as rt weiaed
I'D in his soul, and as it beamed from
him like rays of Intelligence from the
eternal world. He sought to prevail up
on others in this spirit of kindness and
of reason to see the truth But he did
not contend with them. He was con-
tent to set forth the truth as IT was
