Spanish troops, even when he occupied an
advantageous position. In closing the inter-

of the troops in his command. He also ex-
pressed delight at the success of Spain s
International loan.

Dome to ArchbIshOp Ireland.

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-Dr. Rocker, secre-
tary OF the apostolic delegation at Wash
ington, preached at the celebration of the
feast OF st. Cecilia at st. Agnes church

dealt entirely with matters theological, but
in an Interview at the close he said
Nothing has been said or done about Arch
bishop Ireland's letter in which the St
Paul prelate pronounced for the gold stand
ard If Archbishop Ireland made them any
votes by it, the republicans ought to dc
something for him. As an ecclesiastic Arch
bishop ireland took no part in the campaign.
The subject was never mentioned in the

concerns no one but himself"

ho was forced back into the church by the
crowd. squad of police tried to rush the
priest from the church to the parsonage.
battled ensued and many heads were
broken by the officers clubs. The priest
was pushed back and finally toward night
was escorted away from the premises. This
evening, accepting Mayor Wright's counsel,

TOWN WRECKED by THE FLOODS.
Hamilton, wash, BADLY Damaged and
Ha.aIile Narraax. E.caIes.

People Have Narrow Escapes.
SEATTLE, WASH Nov. 22.-Probably the
town in Skagit county to suffer most by the
flood OF the Skagit river was Hamilton. The
town is a complete wreck and looks like de-
struction. The big brick store building Of
Barker & Fontaine is a heap OF ruins and
the goods are buried under the fall of the
walls. Everything is in a horrible shape.
The streets are washed out, sidewalks gone
and the town is filled with trees, stumps
and rubbish. Every one is discouraged and
beartbroken and the scene beggars descrip-
tion. No lives were lost, although there
were several close calls. The water was in
every house in the lower part of the town
and some of the people were prisoners up
stairs The track OF the Seattle & Northern
railway between Wooley and Hamilton has
been almost completely destroyed and 1t will
probably be two weeks before the road is
in good working condition again. The loss
to upriver ranches will be heavy, as consid-
erable stock was lest.
