60 Mr.. Cleveland. but it was stated on
excellent authority that nothing OF the

House directly from Mr.. Baysrd
Whether such an intimstioa or statement
had been conveyed indirectly TO the
President, through the state department
or other source, could not be ascertained
at the state department no information
was obtainsble, and the suggestion was
made there that inquiry In suchs delicate
matter was improper.
Despite this lack of information In the
matter, there Is belief among govern
ment officials corroborative Of the news.
Friends OF the ambassador who were
seen were inclined TO believe that Mr..
Bayard had rendered his resignation,
conditionally, mainly to relieve the
President OF any embarrassment In the
affair, and incidentally, perhaps, though
not thoroughly understanding that the
resolution Of censure was adopted by the
House Committee on Foreign Affairs by
party vote.

Heavy FL ,ods In Texas.

Last Saturday, southern Texas from
San Antonio to Houston was visited by
a heavy rainfall. At San Marcos great
damage was done. In a few minutes
the water rose thirty feet, sweeping
everything before it. Cattle, horses
and animals by hundreds were drown
ed, and houses, fences and outbuild-
ings we're swept away by the torrent.
Thousands of bales of cotton have been
lost, and several gins and mills are re-
ported wrecked. The river is still high
and no definite idea Of the loss can be
obtained. When the waters rushed
through the bottoms cries of people and
shots from guns were heard. It is sup
posed that they were swept away and
drowned. It is known that Smiths
Mill near Prairie Lea, the Nursery Gin
and Zedler's Mill have been destroyed.
1t will be a day or two yet before any
estimate of the damage and loss Of life
can be made, as high water precludes
the work of rescue.

The local management of the Great
Southern Telephone is making ar
rangements to place at Abbeville a
switchboard for the purpose of con-
Meeting exchange lines and bringing
within accessible telephone service all
of the trading points tributary to Abb
beville. The rates for such service we
will guarantee to be entirely satisfac-
tory. Their only reasons for delaying
this work are previous appointments
of construction that must, necessarily,
take precedence. Their working gang
(now at Lake Charles) will within a
few days be removed to Franklin and
after completing work tributary to that
point, will be moved into New IBERIA
Abbeville .e7ritory for further improve
ments and northumberland.

The Dr0gsahs

Cali signs fail in dry weather." say
eth the proverb, and we have had am
pie proof thereof within the past three
weeks. Day after day the sky has
been piled high with dark looking
clouds, the lightning would flash but
no rain came, the wind would sudden
ly shift and away went the clouds.
Other localities in Texas and this
State have had bountiful rains but no
rain OF any consequence has fallen here
since the 22nd of June when we had
about q inches rainfall. All the small
streams or coulees are dry as a bone.
The ponds have long since gone dry
and the grass is parched and shriveled
up until there is no nutriment in 1t.
Cattle are suffering intensely for water
and pasturage. Out west Of towd the
wells in many instances have gone dry
or only yield a few buckets of water
and there is no means of obtaining
water for the furnishing stock. Fall
gardens will not materalize this year,
for it has been SC dry that seed sown
will not terminate. Cane has stopped
growing as the shortened upper ointe
show and unless rain comes before the
grinding season, the stalk will be dry
and woody.
