WANT WEYJER TO REMAIN

WANT WEYLER TO REMAIN.
HAVANA, Oct. 5.-The friends Of
Captain-General Weyler made a grand
rally in his behalf to-day, and did all
they could possibly do in order to pre-
vent his recall to Spain. They held a
meeting at the Spanish Casino, many
of the wealthier class of Spaniards be-
ing present.
Resolutions indorsing General Wey-
Ter We're adopted with great enthusi-
asm, and cable message was sent to
the Government at Madrid announcing
that the representatives of the trading,
mercantile and industrial communities,
assembling at the meeting, We're famil-
lar with the state of the island Of Cuba,
and were consequently satisfied with
the course followed by General Weyler,
looking to an early complete pacifica-
ton Of Cuba, and expressing fear that
his recall would delay the pacification.

AN ENGLISH BOOM.
How the Town of Barry Grew In
Ten Years.

How the Town of Barry Grew In
Ten Years.
The new world is not the only place
where mushroom towns spring up. In
England several considerable cities have
been created by new railroads. Of these
Crewe is perhaps the most notable, says
an exchange. Fifty years ago it was an
insignificant and unprogressive village
with about couple of hundred in
habitants. To-day it is an important
and thriving town with a population of
some $4,000. What may be fairly called
its creation was entirely due to ii rail-
way company, whose works cover about
80 acres and employ from 1000 to 5000
artisans. Another remarkable instance
is that of Barry. in Glamorganshire. As
late as 1856 it was the habitation of a
few fisher families numbering some so
souls. The construction of a railway
and dock was then commenced for the
purpose of the conveyance and shipment
of coal from the Rhoudda valley. Barry
is now town of %, 900 inhabitants, with
municipal gas and waterworks and all
modern Improvements.

The Rio Graude Flood,

! The river rose about an inch this
morning with every Indication that
more water was coming down the
stream.
Last night at o'clock the HERALD
received sps cal telegram from San
Marcial as follows:
SAN MARCIAL, N. NJ, May 13.-Dur-
ing last night and this forenoon the
river has come up about five inches.
1t is still a bout e ghteen inches below
its highest point last Thursday.
The men put to work by the SCrth-
ern Pacific this morning, were very
busy at 2:30 this afternoon, in filing up
the gap in the canal bank. and lum Der
was being put 10 to hold the embank-
ment intact. The water has been grad
ually rising all day, but the men will
be kept right at work day and night
until the breech is filed.
There is d small break in the north
side of the canal that lets considera BILE
water into town. This could be easily
stopped, but nothing has yet been done
to that end.
1t was reported this afternoon that
the county commissioners were now
ready to work jointly with the South
err Pacific railroad company in bui d.
that is now being done is
at the expense of the Southern Pacific.
The embankment thrown up on the
south side of the canal by the city is
still intact and 10 good condition up to
the little smelter, but now the water
only likes foot, in many places, to
reaching the top of the bank.
No one seems to know the cause OF
the present rise in the river as reports
from up the river are to the effect that
the water is at least three feet lower
tn an it was last week.

AFTER FEDERAL COURTS.
Taylor Riddle, New Populist Chair
man, Favors Protest Against Gov
ernment by Iniunction

If it is within the power of the Populist
state committee to bring it about, there
will be held in this city or in some other
western city easy of access, in the near
future, a conference of the leaders of the
party and Populist state committee Off
cials of the United States, for the pur-
pose of agreeing upon line of policy, as
suggested by G. C. Clemens yesterday
in the article which he submitted to the
Kansas committee, calling upon them to
make the abolishment of the federal
courts the main issue of the next cam
paign.
Chairman Taylor Riddle, Secretary Tip
ton Treasurer j. NJ. Allen, Grant Har-
rington and E. J. Westgate, the members
of the executive committee were directed
by a vote of the central committee to
take up Mr.. Clemens communication and
prepare call for national conference
of Populists for it's consideration.
There is no doubt in my mind" said
Chairman Riddle to a Journal reporter
today but that we must do something
to prevent the federal courts from inter-
fering with our state affairs.
1.-The policy suggested by Mr. Clemens,
in my opinion, is the proper one for us to
accept and we will thereby aid the effort
to protect the state from the encroach-
ment ofisthe federal courts. The people
of Kansas, Republicans, Populists and
Democrats all alike, protest against the
idea of government by injunction
The committee last night took steps to-
wards apportioning among the state Off

ARIZONA FLOODED.
16 Miles of the Sonora Railway
Track Washed Out.

Nogales, Ariz., Aug. 13.-Southern Ari-
zona and northern Mexico have been
visited by a terrific rain storm. Ali
the telegraph lines between Nogales
and Guaymas are down and a greater
part of the Sonora railway is washed
out. The track between Nogales and
Encinas, a distance of 16 miles, is al
most entirely gone. A train started
to leave Guaymas this morning, but
it was detained by the Mexican gov
ernment.
There was cloudburst above this
city which filled the stream that flows
through the place and flooded the
greater part of Nogales. The three
bridges were washed away. Several
houses on Arizona street were washed
away and a number of Mexican fami-
lies are homeless. The residence of
ArilO Ramirez, the mayor, was destroy
ed.
Denver, Col, Aug ia special to
the Rocky Mountain News from Phoe-
nix, Ariz-, says: The western mail
which arrives here over the Southern
Pacific railway is held back by a wash
out west of Maricopa. 1t is reported
that five miles of the grade is impaSsa-
BILE. On the Maricopa & Phoenix rail-
road between Tempe and Kyrene, two
and half miles were washed out last
night. Another report has it that be-
tween Tucson and Pantano a washout
occurred that stopped traffic westerly.
