CLOUDBURST'S AFTERMATH.
A PORTION OF SAN rIARCOS
UNDER WATER.
Three-Ouarters of rIiIe of Railroad
Track Washed Out toa
Great Distance.

SAN ANTONIO ((Tex.), Sept. 81
Reports received here to-day from San
Marcos, which was swept by a cloud
burst yesterday, indicate the proba bic
loss OF four lives. The house in which
these people lived was completely
wrecked and no trace of their bodies
las been found. A portion of the town
is yet covered with from five to twenty
feet of water. All business is suspend
cd and the work of the relief progresses
slowly because the town is divided by
a raging torrent and traffic, except by
boat, is impossible in the flooded dis
trict.
Many people, including whole families,
were rescued from treetops to-day by
rien in boats. Had the storm occurred
at night the loss of life would have been
appalling. The mountain of water
seemed to have been unioosed in the
twinlSling of an eye. 1t swept away
railroad embankments, bridges, build
ings and fences and, pouring the mighty
volume into the river course, caused the
stream to rise with a rapidity which
threatened to annihilate the entire city.
For distance of nearly three-quarterS
of mile the International and Great
Northern road track was washed out,
rails and ties being swept away from
their original location for great dis
tarce. The Missouri, Kansas and Texas
railroad also suffered the loss of a
long stretch of track, and both roads
lest several houses and a large guam
tity OF material along the line.
The damage sustained by the Inter
rational and Great Northern is roughly
estimated at $4,000, while the Missouri.
Kansas and Texas has sustained an
equally heavy loss. and the loss to the
city and citizens will reach the same
figure, making the total damage $50, 900.

LEADVILLE, Sept. 21.-The great
miners strike which has kept Leadville
In turmoil for nearly two months and
which resulted in the killing of two men
last Sunday morning and the SubSe-
quent placing of the city under martial
law, is ended. A meeting of the strikers
was held last night under the supervis-
1t was finally decided that the men re-
turn to work at the old schedule prices,
providing that the mine owners would
agree to give them their old places. A
committee of five was appointed TO con-
fer with the mine owners and it is gen.
orally believed that outside of the one or
two mines that have started up with
non-union men, the old men will be
taken back. No further trouble is eX-
pected.
The strike was the outcome of or
ganiZation of the miners by the Western
Federation of Miners and almost every
nline-worker was in the union when
their demands were made and refused.
The miners asked So per day for all
classes Of workmen, including surface
and underground men. This the owners
declared they would not pay and nearly
all Of them closed down, several even al
lowing the pumps to stop. The employ
ers remained willing to continue the
wages which had prevailed up to that
time. Under this scale surface workers
were paid only 50 50.

Two Other Concerns.

Two other failures followed that of

being turned over to the Defiance

the Hotel Russell, which discontinued
business last night.
