MORE ENCOURAGING REPORT.
Galveston News Says Loss of Life Is
Greatly Exaggerated.

Galveston, Tex, July 6.-Reports
from a special correspondent of the
News indicate that while the property
loss by the recent floods has been
enormous, the loss of life has been
greatly exaggerated. According 10 the
News only five lives have been lost in
the Lower Brazos food From 800 20
1000 colored people were caught in the
valley in Austin. Waller and Fort Bend
counties and were forced to take 10
the trees and house tops.
A special train left this afternoon for
the flooded district, carrying several
government and a number of private
boats 1t is believed that nearly all
the people lodged in trees and on house
tops have been rescued, but boats sent
from Galveston today will patrol the
flooded district and make a thorough
search for stragglers.
The war department has authorized
Governor Savers to distribute 10000
army rationS among the flooded SUI
ferers In addition. Houston and Gal
weston have sent several carloads Of
groceries into the flooded district. 1t
is believed there is now food enough in
transit TO feed the negroes until the
waters recede and they can return TO
plantation work.
The next trouble will be at VelaSco,
the mouth of the Brazos, which point
the floods reached today. The town
may be cut off from communication
with the world for day or two. but
no loss of life is anticipated. because
the people had two days notice that
the flood had broken loose above and
was coming down. The revenue cutter
Galveston will leave here tonight for
TO rescue those really in dan
ger at that point.
Donation OF the war rations was
most timely, as several thousand home
less negroes will have TO be fed for ten

In the course of an interview today
the ex-senator, in speaking of the Phil

said:
THE masses will be greatly pleased
If the administration will only an
nounce a direct and distinct policy as
to how it proposes to govern these new
possessions. 1t has no policy as yet
but it must announce one at once if it
wants to hold its prestige until the
next campaign. If war was terminated
at once and the loss of life and ex-
penditure of money stopped, the adj
ministration could put up most any
form of government il chose for the
islands. and be sustained by the peo-
pie. But as things now stand, with
chances for complications with other
countries and for numerous other rea-
l.
preciable percentage of our people who
would submit to absolute sovereignty
by the United States over those is
lands"
AS to the next presidential campaign.
Mr.. Dubois said: Il think Mckinley
and Bryan will both be nominated by
reclamation and that the platforms
viii be about as they were four years
ago. The Republicans will drop the
plank declaring for international BIZ
metallism and announce themselves
wholly and absolutely for gold alone.
The Democrats, of course. will make
16 to l the main issue. Both sides will
declare against trusts. Neither side
will take up Imperialism or expansion
as an issue.
There will be a union of silver forces
and Bryan will carry more Silver Re-,
publicans than he did four years ago.
Idaho will go to Bryan bigger than
ever"
When asked by the reporter if he
was a candidate for election as United
States senator, he said:
Now you are getting personal. I
refuse to be interviewed on personal
politics."
