The heaviest rainfall for long time
came yesterday afternoon about quar-.

turned into torrents of muddy water.
and a good deal of mud was washed
down from the hill side. No damage
worthy Of note resulted.

 The first actual step in this direc ton is the Senatorial agreement for the Reorganization of the Senate Demoelat& Populists audsilxer R.. puhlichas have ceas majority, and they have come to au agreement as to the committees aud officers which will give the Senate a silver organization The tariff bill will probably not be affected That will pass in some foen, tue naln oQject| of the coub.le beng to saee the finance ccmmitte as a free silver organizatia0 In this manner the lines wlll4be drawn on the currency issne, relegating the tariff to the position of minor question on which members can divide without refer enee to their party standing, jest as they do on the bankruptcy bill, tue Pacific railroad bill or any similar measure.
 With the lines thes drawn in the Senate between the gold and silver parties, they will not be long in ex tending down through all grades of Organizations to party allignmeuts. In a common desire for the seeces Of the cause Of silver, men will forget minor divisons. and array themselves under one com mon flag. Hence the extreme sig nificanes of this Senatorial coalition.

sooner or later the Car will take q hand
 For many centuries Crete was a part Of Greece. The inhabitants are mostly of Greeian ancestry. They belong to the Greek Catholic church, of which the Car is the recognized head as the Pope is the head of the Roman Catholic church They have been in state of rebellion ever -iace Crete was annexed to Turkey. In 1868, after q war that lasted several years and was likely 10 eX. terminate the inhabitants and ruin tue industries of the island, the great powers of Europe inteffered and compelled the Sultan to give Cretaas a form of home rule simi- far in some respects to that offered Cuba by the government of Spain, including legislative assembly elected by the people aud Christ ian for civil governor. But the laws adopted by tde Cretan assem- ply have been usually vetoed by the Sultan. and the military command ant, who has always been a Turk and a Mussq.maa, has continually usurpcd lhe authority cf the civil governor, and las attempted to con trol ciyt. affairs. The other officials Of the island, being responsible only to the Sultan. have outraged the people, so that the autonomy of Crete has been onlg a pretense.
 The latest difficulty was over the management of finances. The Sulz tan, being very hard up. persuaded the Turkish collector of taxes in Crete to divert about $500, 900 of the proceeds of the tax on tobacco to the use of the Turkish govern ment The Gretaus demanded the reimbursement of that sum Tue Sultan refused and provoked an agitation throughout Crete which caused a coutinu4l collision between the citizens and the military guards, and resulted ia an open rebellion of the Christians. which vas encout- aged and aided by Greece. Abso ute autonomy was demanded by some, and annexation bY others. aud finally tbe Greek army was me to the assistance Of the rebels The powers of Europe iatervened, Greece was forbidden to interfere, but declined to obey. so that finally q collision occurred between the Greek and Turkish troops and war was declared.
