FRAZIER RIVER RISING.
Prospect That Settlers on 1t Will be
Flooded.

VANCOUVER (B. CO, July 5.-Re-
ports from Fraser River districts say
that the river is steadily rising. AT
Chilliwack considerable damage has
been done to crops on the outlying
lands, and the steamer Gladys has been
busily engaged for the past few days
in removing cattle and settlers effects
to higher ground. Nicomen Island is
also suffering from high water and all
down the river on both sides, wherever
low levels are not fully protected by
high dykes, much damage Is being
done. Mission City townsite will prob
ably be under water if the high water
continues. Unless the water recedes
very soon the agricultural loss will be
considerable. Word has just been re-
ceived from Westminster that the water
at high tide was two feet eight inches
below the mark reached during the
floods of 1894. The steamer Gladys
brings word that Sumas is flooded and
the water is up to the banks at
Chilliwack. A good portion of Dewd-
neys is under water. At Langley the
water is level with the landing and at
several other places 1t is over the
WharVeS.

SIGNALS HEARD.
Bare Pos ssibility of Some Twin Shaft
rlen Being Rescued.

WILKESBARRE Pa.), July g.
There is a bare possibility that some
OF the men entombed in the Twin shaft
at Pittston may be taken out alive. The
rescuing party, who were at work from
10 o'clock last night until o'clock this
morning, on coming to the surface re-
ported to mine foreman O'Brien
that they had heard rapping on the
rails of the gangway road, which might
have been caused by some Of the en-
tombed men. The rappings were clear
and distinct, as though someone had
struck the rail with a hard substance.
The supposed signal was answered by
the rescuers in the same manner. After
a short silence the answer came back
clear and distinct.
At Z o'clock tonight the rescuers say
they are within 400 feet of the en-
tombed men.
The shifts have been increased from
twenty to thirty-five, who are relieved
every half-hour. They are still cutting
through the rock and progressing more
rapidly than at any time heretofore
since the work commenced.
Through the orders of General Super
intendent Law several skillful men
were quietly sent into the shaft this
evening to verify If possible the hopeful
story Of the rappings. After prolonged
efforts and the use of every method of
signalling possible they came back to-
night with a report of failure, not the
least bit of noise indicating that their
labor in this direction had been sue
cessful. The work of the three mine
| inspectors to investigate the disaster
will begin tomorrow morning.

CANTON (O.), July 5.-Major McKfn-

summer. He said to-day that he had
need of rest, and thought he could dis
charge the manifold duties incident to
the campaign to better advantage here

hundreds of callers this week and as

fatigue him.
Most of the delegations who come to
Canton carry banners inscribed with
the words. Protection" Reciprocity .
Sound Money" and in many cases the
words patriotism and Prosperity ap-
pear in lurid letters on streamers and
banners.
Plans for the conduct of the fmpend-
ing campaign are rapidly maturing
rapidly. but not hulriedly. The work
of the campaign will not be formally
commenced until the Democratic plat
form has been adopted and the Demo-

A BULLET IN HIS HEAD.
Attempted Suicide of Pioneer of
Humboldt.

o'clock this morning officers were sum-
