RECEIVED WITH Kisses.
Glass Workers Mt Carmnux, France
insult Their Former Champion.

NJ. Jaures. the radical socialist deputy
for Carmaux, France, and other socialist
members Of the chamber attempted to ad-
dress a mass meeting at Carmaux yester-
day, but the whole party were received
with mingled Kisses and cheers and were
pelted with filth.
M. Jaures was the champion of the glass
workers in their great strike last year, but
he has fallen out Of favor with. his Car
maux constituents by the part he took in
the opening Of a new cooperative glass
factory at Abb, which the Carmaux work
men view as q rival.
Troops escorted the party of deputies
from the station to the Socialist Club. AS
the time for the meeting arrived free
fight occurred outside the hall, and mount
ed gendarmes had to clear the approaches.
Several persons were arrested, including
the socialist ex-mayor, M. Calvinhac, whose
faoe- was covered with blood.
The uproar continued to so great an ex-
tent inside the hall that NJ. Jaures was un-
able to secure a hearing and he quilted the
platform.
NJ. Pelletan, the deputy for AK, succeed
ed In putting to vote declaration that
the committee was elected, but shouts Of
"Resignr' "Resignw "Out with Jaures!'
prev ented further business. There was a
wild tumult in the hall and the opposing
factions came to blows. Thereupon the
commtssary Of police dissolved the meeting
and the gendarmesa cleared the premises,
mot nted men outside keeping the exits
clear. tthe deputies getting very mixed
reception as they came out.
They returned 'toSfhe club to q banquet,
the streets being patrolled. =
M. Jaures has issued manifesto protest
ing against the obstacles placed in the way
Of his addressing his constituents.
NJ. Chauvin. q Parisian deputy, has been
arrested and will be tried by the Abb court
on several charges. Several other socialists
will be prosecuted for rioting.

STIR IN LIBERAL CIRCLES.
Sir Robert Reid Tells Why Lord Ros,
berry Became Premier.

berry Became Premier.
According to the New York Evening
Posts copyrighted London cablegram, no
small stir has been created in liberal circles
by the speech of Sir Robert Reid attorney
general in the last liberal government, a.
Rugby recently, regulating Mr. MorIey's S
attempt to hush up the long standing diff
ference between Lord Rosebery and Sir
William Harcourt, which really was the
cause of Lord Rosebery's resignation. Lord
Rosebery was, he said, forced into Mr..
Gladstone's place against his own inclina-
tion by those who. for unexplained reasons,
declined to serve under Sir William Har-
court. Had Lord Rosebery declined. the
government would have been broken up.
The present effort to deprecate a frank
facing Of the situation was unwise and un-
fair both to Lord Rosebery and Sir VIII
liam Harcourt.
''Sir Robert Reid evidently believes that
the extreme radical section hope by clos
Ing the discussion Of the leadership to per-
manently oust Lord Rosebery in favor of
Sir William Harcourt. Interesting develop
ments are expected when parliament
meets"

The storm must have been fully as
heavy as nearer the city, but owing 10
the dificulties in the way Of commuhl-

and all manner OF property and deDrls
came down the creek, indicating very
high water and great loss through the
northeast corner of Marshall county and
over towards the Pennsylvania line.
East of Little Washington the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad was broken. and the
Atlantic City excursionsjs who left by
that route in the morning were turned
back after arriving at Little Washing

those familiar with the locality say that
about the only thing which prevented
great destruction CT property was the
fact that the run has been Strengthened
from the city line to the river, making
a clear and straight shoot for The water.
Probably five hundred dollars loss was
sustained at M. Zion cemetery, by the
rush of water down the hillside. A
long stretch Of fence was demolished,
and the cemetery was badly washed in
places.

a fortunate thing that the river was at

of damage.
All over the city the streets were food

Their down the run the road alongside of
the run was washed out Of existence
by the raging water. Crops in the low
places were badly damaged.
Many people residing near the run
were frightened badly and left their
homes for higher ground. Fortunately
the water flooded none out. Rumors
were afioat in the forenoon that Jacob
Odell was caught in the water and
drowned. also John Powell, Of Buckeye
Run, but these rumors were soon put
at rest.
The storm. taken altogether, was the
worst OF its kind that has visited this
vicinity for years. Many people were
frightened yesterday afternoon at the
dark and threatening clouds appearing
in the north. thinking that 1t might bring
a repetition of the morning storm.
