Machinsmith, and Tower and Bar
mouth. For the distance of three
quarters of a mile between the latter
places the line was entirely destroyed.
1t Will take fully a. week to get the
line in running order. The railway
was also flooded between yarmouth
and Dolgelly, and yarmouth and Port
Madoc.
The sea wall at Swansea was de-
stroyed by the heavy sea pounding
against it. 4 number of small houses
at Penclawd dock were demolished and
the furniture in them carried away.
The tide rose twenty-one feet at Alb
erystwith, making a breach in the sea
wall. Many cottages at Berth were
ruined. A large unknown ship was
lost off Skomer island and all on
board of her persisted.
The River Severn rose seven feet
above it's normal height at Newn Ham
and the lower portion of the town was
flooded. Many animals were drowned.

today gave out the following state
ment regarding the Georgia election:


WASHINGTON, Oct. S.--Senator Mar
ion Butler. chairman of the national
PonllIist committee, today expressed the
oninion that lit is almost certain fhaE
majority of the white votes of Geor-
gia were cast for the Peoples party
State ticket. This is a great gain over
fhe party's vote, and il; due to tae' per
sonal popularity of Tom Watson in his
own state, and to the desire OF TIE
people to rebuhe the management OF
the Democratic party on the state O.
affairs in Georgia The Democratic
partv is indebted TO the negro vote fol-
Whatever kind OF victory they have
won.
As to the general political situation,
he said:
The outlook for Bryan and free sill
yer is much better than il was ten days
ago. The reaction against the schemes
and methods Of the Republican party
has already set in, and will grow in force
until the day of election. This proves
the impotency of a Doodle campaign,
when the people are aroused on a great
and vital issue. The present indica-
tons show two hundred and thirty-two
electoral votes reasonably certain for
Bryan, with an equal chance for rs
more"
Secretary Diffenderfer of the national
Silver committee, gives Bryan 282 votes.
Mckinley 107, and makes the remaining

EVANSTON, Oct S.-The audience
that greeted the first public meeting
of the Bimetallic Flambeau club to-
night to hear John c. Hamm, local
speaker, was the largest and most en-
thusiastic of all political gatherings
within the record of this city. Early
in the evening the Flambeau club,
neatly uniformed and carrying q large
supply of fireworks, paraded the man
streets and Illuminated the skies with
lonan candles and rockets. The whole
town turned out, and after reviewing
the parade, marched to the opera
house, where it is estimated LOCO peo-

PALMER AND BUCKNER.
The Generals Entertain a Large Au-
Gience ut Cllicn-O

dience ut Chicago.
CHICAGO, Oct. S.-Generals Palmer
and Buckner tonight made their first
appearance before a Chicago audience
since their nomination for the presi-
dency and presidency by the Indi-
annapolis convention.
The Auditorium, where the meeting
was held, contained fairly large audi
ence, the first floor and balcony being
well filed. but there was no necessity
for any one to ascend to the upper bal
comics. A large flag was prettily draped
across the front of the stage, and the
audience was literally supplied with
small flags, which they waved at the
proper times.
Senator Palmer said his nomination
was not self-sought. The Indianapolis
convention was composed of represent
a,tive Democrats from forty-one states
of the union; they considered who
would best represent them, and they Sc
lected him. He could not decline, be-
cause he thought it his duty to obey
the wish of the convention. He did not
| accept the nomination with any expec-
| tation OF serving either the Republican
or the PoDulist party; he accepted it
as q Democrat He declared he meant
to stand by the ancient faith and abide
| the consequences.
The speaker then referred to the de-
| struction by fire of Chicago twenty-five
| years ago, and to the active part he,
as governor, took in assisting the peo-
pie and in bringing order out of chaos.
| General Palmer then proceeded to de-
nounce the plank in the Chicago plat
| form denouncing the president for in
terfering in the affairs at Chicago. and
! the enforcement of the laws OF the
| United States.
Referring to his own candidacy. Cen
eral Palmer said he could not blame
his auditors for voting for Mckinley,
ard would not be surprised if some
voted for Bryan-because he was aware
! that there are great many curious
people in the world. But they could do
| better than vote for Mckinley or for
Bryan-they could vote for Palmer and
Buckner.
| General Buckner scored the free sill
yer movement and reviewed the cur
rency legislation since the war. deny
ing that the characterization Of silver
| had had anything to do with events
which have followed.

Ex-President and His Wife Greeted
by at Least Il Thousand People
He Makes Il Speech.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, Oct. S.-Gen-
eral Harrison and his wife arrived to-
day and were greeted at the Union
station by a crowd of 1000 people. The
appearance of the ex-president was the
signal for cheers and in reply to calls
for speech he was conducted to
jacobson Place, directly in front of the
depot, where he spoke for five minutes.
His remarks were confined almost en-
tirely to thanking his hearers for the
ardor with which he was received
home again after an absence Of several
months. He vas frequently inter-
rupted by cheers. After this altogether
unexpected incident in connection with
his arrival, the ex-president and his
wife were driven to their North Della
ware street home.

New Mexico Stage Is Held Up by Rob-
bers-Supposed to BE Members OF
II Tough Gang of Outlaws.
SANTA FEE, n. NJ, Oct. S.-Informa-
ton has just reached this point that the
San Antonio White Oaks stage has been
held up by masked robbers forty miles
from San Antonio.
The hold-up occurred in a lonely gorge
in the Oscura mountains the driver being
compelled TO dismount, the mail pouches
were rif1ed and, to delay pursuit, the rob-
beers stole the stage horses, compelling
the driver to walk TO San Antonio: Three
hours later the White Oaks mail coach
passed the same point and little doubt
is entertained that it met the same rate.
The men are probably members OF the
gang who held up the Atlantic Pa
cific express at Albuquerque few days
ago. when the leader was killed. Ihey
are wanted also for numerous other ROD
Posses are searching for them. and there
Is little question of a conflict should

were of value, but the amount OF booty
secured by the robbers is not known.

Mr.. Watterson says:
1.-THE scandalous circumstances at
tending the Chicago proceedings, the
shameless abandonment of Democratic
truth in the platform there adopted
and the grotesque character IF the
ticket nominated left me no alternative

forts a reduction in the wages of the
Union Pacific employees on the Wyo-
ming division was avoided. Through
out his speech Mr.. Hamm used frank
and undisputable arguments in favor
of free coinage, and put them forward
in a way that won for him the respect
of even his goldbug hearers.
The speech tonight has brought Mr..
Hamm into prominence as our best To-
cal speaker, and he has been petitioned
to deliver an address in Almy before
the close of the campaign.

BOISE, Idaho, Oct. S.-Another mys-
ferrous double murder is reported in
Bruneau valley, Owyhee county.
Owing to the isolation of the scene
of the tragedy, the only details obtain
able are as follows:
Two unknown men, riding gray
horses, coming from Little Valley to
Bruneau, Owyhee county, stopped and
had breakfast at Wickahoney. They
then proceeded on their journey. Short
ly after their departure a cattleman
came into Bruneau, and stated he had
found bloodstains alongside of the
road. A party was made up, and they
proceeded to the scene, and following
the trail which crossed the road, a
human body was found, face down
ward buried in the sand. There was a
bullet hole behind the left ear and a
shot in the right side of. the neck.
Around the victims neck WAS q rope,
showing how the unfortunate man was
dragged to his burial place.
w. NJ. Milligan, peddler, was on
his way home from a trip, and it
seems that he hove in sight just as
the murdered man was being dragged
across the road, and to take no chances
of being identified, the murderer killed
Milligan and buried him about ten
yards from his first victim. He then
decamped. A posse is securing the
country for the murderer.
A special to the Statesman tonight
says from the papers found on victim
No 1. it is believed he was lured from
the east on pretence of making an ex-
animation of mines. The motive for
murder. it is limited, will develop into
a tremendous sensation.
