Awful Results of the Floods
Thro4gheut Texas.


AUSTIN, Tex, July S.--Goy. sayers
stated tonight tol IAN Associated Press
correspondent that Judging from all the
reports he had received officially from
the flooded district there had been great
loss of property, both personal and cor
porate, that hundreds of people. had been
bereft of their homes and belongings, and
that at present there were in the neigh
borhood of 1900 people, the majority Of
them being negroes, who were dependent
entirely upon public charity for susie
nance. The suffering of water-bound ref
ugees has been very great. The loss of
life has been comparatively small, not
exceeding fifty persons.
The heaviest farming losses will fall
upon the owners of the big plantations
in the bottoms who have lost all their
crops, and much of their personal prop
erty and are not being protected in the
distribution of charity which is being
expended only among the poor.
Up to tonight Gov Savers has received
$50, 900 in money contributions from this
state and from the East. In addition
thereto he has sent out several carloads
of groceries, which have been donated
by different cities fof the state.
The situation is being well handled
now, and the governor stated tonight
that by tomorrow every hungry mouth
in Texas would be looked after.

CASH IS SCARCE.
New York Banks Have Small Sur

NEW YORK, July S.-The Financier
says:
The associated banks of New York, II
their statement for the week ending
July is to be accepted as correct, have
less surplus cash on hand than at any
time with the exception of September
1899 since the 1893 panic. But the cur
rent exhibit is 50 complicated by Incl
dents due to July disbursements, and
also by the system of averages employed
in making 1t, that it's totals do not pos
cess the Significance that otherwise might
attach them The loss Of about SO, coo 900
In cash, for instance, isr very much more
than known operations called for, and the
expansion of nearly 81, coo, 600 in loans must
reflect previous weeks business The
demands for accommodation Within The
past four days certainly did not necessi-
tate this violent rise. AS the statement
stands 1t plainly Indicates that every dol
lar of the loans has been taken from the
banks in cash, and the withdrawal of
deposits has been by a similar operation:
Manifestly this Is an impossible eontin-
gency - s : 80
IA more detailed examlDattong shows
that of the loss in cash the National City
and the Chase National banks are re-
sponsible for the entire reduction, the
National City's loss having been about
Sc, 600 600, and its increase in loans more
than $6OOO,O0O. 1t is interesting to note,
in this connection, that whereas the av-
erage reserve of all the banks is now
25.5 per cent, a loss of per cent, the re-
serve, exclusive Of the institution named,
is 26 per cent. In other words, sixty-two
of the sixty-three banks have within a
small fraction of l per cent of as much
money as reported at the opening of
July.
1.-The refusal of call money to advance
perceptibly in the face OF the showing
made by the banks shows that the sit
uation is pretty well understood and that
no fears are entertained as to the fu-
ture During the next few weeks the
banks will gain heavily in cash. not only
on government account, but from other
sources well. 1t Is perhaps no exag-
geration to say that at the close of busi-
ness Saturday, the various institutions
were in much better shape in every way
than their statements would imply. The
maintenance of per cent rate Oh call
money is of itself enough to induce a
movement of currency in this direction" ="

VENDETTA IN IOWA.
Trouble Likely to Grow Out of the
Killing of Camerer.

SIOUX CITY, To-, July S.-A vendetta
seems likely to grow out of the killing of
John Camerer, of Browns Lake this
county. Camerer's slayer, Albert John
son, is in Jail here, and his father and
mother have also taken refuge with the
authorities in Sioux. City in anticipation
of an attempt at revenge by the dead
mans relatives. Young Johnson is sure
to be released soon, however, and he
and his parents can hardly afford to re-
main long away from their farm at
Browns Lake. When they return there
Is little likelihood that trouble can be
avoided.
The Camerers and Iohnsons were
neighboring farmers and have had con-
siderable trouble over a line of fence.
Thursday afternoon Camerer went to his
neighbours house to settle their difficulty.
Chris Johnson, the father. was from
home, but Camerer saw the rest of the
family at supper near a window and
fired at them through the glass.
Fortunately no one was injured, but
young johnson seized his shotgun, hur-
ried into the yard, where Camerer was
reloading, and shot him dead. AS soon as
Camerer's sons learned what had oc-
Cured they were wild with rage Ed
one of the number, swore over his IA
theirs body to be revenged on the entire
Johnson family, and would undoubtedly
have made his threat good had the local
authorities not placed him under arrest
In the meantime the Johnsons were all
brought to Sioux City for safety.
When they return home they say they
will go well provided with arms and am
munition, as they are sure they will be
the victims of an attack by the Cam
erers. The favorite weapon in the
Browns Lake district is the goose
gun," an eight-bore affair, especially de-
signed for throwing a large charge OF
shot a long distance and almost sure
death, when fired to every one in the
vicinity except. the man Immediately be-
hind it.

Yachts Sailed the Wrong Course,

NEW YORK, July Sat last the big
sloop yachts Columbia and Defender have
met III battle royal that has satisfied
all concerned. In a strong and fairly
steady breeze and smooth water they
sailed over a course Of about twenty-six
miles today, and in covering that dis
tance the Columbia fairly and squarely
outsailed the Defender by three minutes
fifteen seconds actual time.
If Columbia, after measurement. is
found to allow the Defender two rlinutes,
she will still have beaten her by one
minute and fifteen seconds That means
that she can beat her now over a full
thirty-mile course by at least two min
utes corrected time, and that when she
is tuned up, say by the September races,
she will easily beat her five minutes,
which is all that is required of her. To-
days race was as fine smooth water
test as the yachts may ever expect to
get. Here are the official figures show

UNFORTUNATE INCIDENT
The only unfortunate part Of today's
event was the fact that both yachts SAIL
ed the wrong course. It was, in fact, the
feature Of the day, and the strange ac-
kept every one guessing as to the ulti-
mate result. The first leg of the course
was to be eight miles long, the turning
point being of Stamford, Conn. The
yachtsmen Of the Riverside club were hav-
ing a race on the sound. They set their
turning point right on the course that
the Columbia and Defender were to sail
over, but only four miles from their
starting point. When, after an exciting
luf1ng match. Capt. Rhodes saw this
mark. he promptly kept the Defender off.

knew whether 1t was a real race or not.
c. oliver Iselin explained matters when
seen after the race by an Associated
Press reporter. He said:
1.-THE Defender made the mistake, and
We simply followed her to make race.
II has turned out a good one. We are
very well satisfied with 1t all around.
We both made a mistake, but it has been
the best all around race we have yet
had. 1 am satisfied that the Columbia
is the better boat but she will go to
Bristol and have her sails recut before
she races again"
The regatta committee say that the
event will be considered as race, and
