SAN MARCOS, Tex, Sept 2S.-Such in
vestigation as could be made yesterday
shows that no lives were lost rs result
Of Saturdays downpour, when eight
inches of rain fell in eight hours, but it is
apparent that the loss will not be less than
the estimate first tmade-S4O, 900, The dam
age to this town is very heavy. The whole
south part, which fortunately was not
very thickly settled, is almost gone. The
houses generally We're small and flimsy,
and they were floated away as if they We're
boats People We're rescued from the tops
of them and from trees in boats. Had the
rain occurred at night many lives would
have been lost The San Marcos river rose
twenty-five feet Usually it is small
stream three or four feet in depth.

THE IRON GATE E8
Opened by Emperor Francis /
seph and Other Royalties,
AUSTRIA, sBRvIA AND ROUMANf8

More Closely United by the Construction
of the Artificial Waterway TO Improve
the Navigation of the Danube-A Mill
tary Convention Probable.
ORzovA, Servia, Sept 2s.-The kings of
Servia and Boumania arrived here yes
terday to attend the ceremony Of the
opening of the Iron Gate canal, and were
warmly greeted by Emperor Francis Jo-
scph of Austria, who arrived on Saturday,
accompanied by Count Goluchowski. The
members of the Austria Hungary cabinet
and representatives Of Germany, Great
Britain, Italy France, Russia and other
countries were also in attendance
The emperor of Austria, the king Of
Servia and the king of Roumania em-
barked on steamer at o'clock yester-
day forenoon. The vessel was towed from
from the quay down the river amid the
continuous firing of salutes and the cheers
of thousands of people standing upon the
banks of the river, which were lined with
troops.
At the entrance to the Iron Gate canal,
about four miles from the city, the tug
cast off its line and the steamer upon
which were the monarchs snapped the
flower laden cord across the mouth Of the
canal, thus formally opening the work.
Ovations by the multitude were renewed
as the imperial party returned to the sta
ton. The sovercigns then proceeded to
Kerkulesbad, where there was a banquet
in the Curssalon, aftor which the royal
ties bade each other farewell and departed
The towns were brilliantly illuminated at
night.
The ceremony Of opening the Iron Gate
canal to improve the navigation Of the
Danube has significance not confined to
its commercial aspect. On entering the
canal Emperor Francis Joseph proposed Il
toast TO the prosperity OF the three peo-
PIES dwelling upon the event as symbolic
Of the community Of interests and giving
powerful impulse to the development of
International relations. The three mon
archs drank the toast from Foldon COB
lots especially made TO commemorate
the occasion The Boumanians had pre-
pared Il surprise in having modified a
complete division Of troops on their shore,
who shouted "hurrah' as one man.
Emperor Francis Joseph came to Rou-
mania accompanied by his chief of gen
eral staff. 1t is generally believed that the
result of the visit will be the conclusion
of a military convention.

THE COUNTY BANKRUPT.
A Dishonest New York County
Treasurer's Clean Sweep.
STOLE OVER A QUARTER MILLION
The Official Was Reckless Investor, and
Used the County Funds in His schemes.
No Money to Pay County Omcials-Wor;,
on New Court House Suspended.


TROY, n. Y. Sept 2s. 2s.-County Treas
urcr George II Morrison, of Rensselaer,
county, Is short in his accounts the
amount of the defalcation ranging from
32OO 600 to $500, 600, and he was arrrstel
late Saturday afternoon by Chief Detective
COndon He has been county treasurer
only two years.
One of Morrison's bondsmcn snid today
that the shortage would be about $500, 600
The treasurer prior 10 his arrest, turned
over big batch of local securities to his
bondsmen. Their face value is above $780,
600, but their actual worth, at a charitable
estimate, is not more than Sl25, 900.
Rumors relative 10 the financial sound
ness of the county trcasurer first gained
strength when the National Bank of Troy,
of which Mr.. Morrison was formerly
cashier, suspended payment last Satur-
day. Mr.. Morrison then stated that he
had on deposit $4,000 Of the county's
money in that bank
Then came the demand by the city Of
fcials upon Mr. Morrison for $4,000 due
TO the city on payments FOR licenses under
the Raines excise law. or the sum due
/ $4,000 was paid Thursday.
/ The county has practically not a dollar
/ TO its credit, and il the money obtained
from Mr. Morrison is tied mp by legal
action the county will have to issue bonds
| to defray its current expenses
/ Mr.. Morrisons whole trouble is laid to
! speculation. He was reckless in his invest
ments, and used the county funds. He
has been heels over head in wildcat
schemes for long time.
Morrison defalcation is the all absorb
ing topic in this city and its vicinity, and
the hopes that a more thorough investi-
CATION of tho treasury books would show
that the shortage was not as bad as was
at first reported were shattered when the
finance committee Of tho board Of super
visors announced that the only money
available TO the county at the present
time was SIS. On account Of the lack OF
money work on the new court house viii
have to be stopped. No county oiEcer,
from grand jurors to the county judge
will receive their salaries, and no bills
against the county can Lo satisfied until
the county can raise the money on bonds.
Justice FurStman late Saturday night
granted to the county officers a writ of at
tachmcnt against Morrison's property.
While Morrison was waiting for his bond
to be made out he made significant re-
mark to the effect that no matter what
happened he would take all the blame on
his shoulders. He is out on $4,000 bail.

The County Commissioners and the
May or and City Council of Havre de
Grace, in connection with the School
Commissioners, reached an agreement
on Monday which will enable the new
school building, about which there
has been so much talk, to he built.
The contract calls for the erection of
building, at cost not to exceed
500, 900, by September l. The city is
to pay s.. 800 and the Commissioners
pay the balance. A building commit
tee, consisting of Messrs r. X Van.
neman. w. H. Harlan and John ID.
Worthington, was appointed. \ site
will be selected ut once and work will
be begun as soon as the weather per
mits.
We congratulate the Commissioners
on reaching II solution of the question
and settling the matter in a way
which must be acceptable to every
one.
That Havre de Grace had TO have a
school house goes without saying.
The only question was how the funds
were to be raised.
1t is matter in which all the tax
payers took Il deep interest, and we
are sure that our county fathers will
receive the commentator of ALL
