Washington, Sept. 25.-The gunboat
Urdaneta which was captured with
her crew at Orani about twenty-five
miles from Manila on the bay Of
Manila, is little craft of only forty
tons displacement, not much larger
than a small tug. She was captured
by the navy early in the war and has
been on police duty in the bay for
months past.

show that she was one of the boats OF
which the Oregon is the parentship-
That is she was supposed to draw all
of her supplies from the battleship. to
be manned from the OregOn's crew and
to act under the instructions of the
Oregon commander.
According to the last reports to the
department the little boat was last

record, being subject to frequent
change. Wood was appointed to the

performing sea service at the time OF
his capture.
Naturally. the department. officials
are vexed that the difficulties of the
negotiations looking to the release Of
Lieutenant Gilmore of the Yorktown
and his men should be added to by this
last misfortune. Still there is no dis
position unnecessarily to curb the
junior officers of the navy who are
rendering such gallant service in the
Philippines.

TERRIBLE RUSH OF WATERS
DESTRUCTION CAUSED BY RAG
ING TEXAS TORRENTS.
Two Rivers Meet and Start On Career
of Death and Desolation-Five
Bodies Recovered.

Calvert. Tex. July 1.-The most dis
astrous storm for several years in this
district occurred last night. The
streams and big rivers around here
overran their banks and everything
ahead of them was swept to destruc-
ton. The reports come in that two
rivers. Little and Big Brazos, have met
and that help is needed. On hearing
this all the business houses closed up
and everybody went TO the rescue of
the unfcrtuuates. 4 number of lives
have been reported lost. So far only
five bodies have been recovered, all
being negroes. A large number of
houses in the lower part of the city
are flooded.
The railroad bridges at both ends of
the town have been destroyed. One of
them was built of stone and cement.
II has undergone the rises of the past
twenty-five years, but 1t succumbed to
this terrible rush of waters. The mayor
and citizens have provided shelter and
food for the destitute.
1t is impossible to get between the
two rivers to ascertain the true dam
age, but from observations the water
appears to be in the lowest place six
teen feet, and in the highest twenty
feet deep. In the Calvert coal mine
camp the water is six feet deep. The
damage to property is incalculable.
1t is still raining.

Smith this morning and offered apology
for the construction placed upon the

Further conversation ensued, and fin

a statement which gave color to the
universal idea here that he was re-

marks at the funeral.

Mr.. Thatcher.
II am, replied Mr.. Smith.

into close quarters with his opponent.
Mr.. Thatcher surveyed him a moment
and then remarked that if a fight was
desired he believed himself capable of
giving his opponent satisfaction, he
squared himself on the defensive.
Mr. Smith, however. thought better
of it, and after notifying Mr.. Thatcher
that he had not heard the last of it,
he picked up his hat, and repairing to
the Office of Justice Smith. swore to a
charge of battery.

which led I'D to it.

accuracy of statements made by the
Hannaites that disaffected ex-Repub-
licans are going TO return TO that
camp, The Herald has interviewed some
of the more prominent men of that
class.
Not one was found who was ready
to say that he expected to go back. On
the contrary, all reaffirmed their allie
glance to silver in unequivocal terms,
and announced their intention of voting
with the Democrats i'll the belief that
that party is the only one from which
help for silver may be hoped for.
Judge Dickson's Attitude
Said Judge w. H. Dickson: Il have
mt changed my views on the money
question at all. 1 see no hope for any
thing favorable to silver in the Repub-
lican party and unless the Democracy
should radically depart from the prin-
ciples l believe in, l will vote with
that party. l think silver should be
made the main issue next year. and
even if we have TO go down to defeat
with it,

declaration in favor of Democracy. Il

can say for me that L am not a silver
Republican. but a Democrat. / have
joined the Democratic party and will
certainly stay there. This proposition
of being one thing one day and another
thing another day is something l don't
understand"
Frank B. Stephens.
Frank B. Stephens unhesitatingly de-
fined his position. Mr.. Stephens could
not forbear smiling when asked IL he
had any idea of again becoming a Re-
publican. II became a Democrat from

The car line as it now exists is a losing

Hopes For Success.

| Hopes For success.
AS Mr.. Higbee has never been iden-
| titled with a failure during the course
of many years spent in promoting SINH
lar enterprises, he doesn't anticipate
anything but success in this venture.
Mr.. Higbee expects to find one or more
patriotic citizens willing TO put up the
cash and bullion necessary to carry MS
plan through.
The work of the Utah batteries in the
Philippine islands, Mr.. Higbee says,
has attracted the highest commenda-
ton not only all over this country. but
across the Atlantic. He thinks 1t is
peculiarly fitting that an imperishable
metallic statue typifying the character
of men Utah produces, be made and
displayed before the hundreds of thou
sands of people who will visit the great
French exposition.
Mr. Higbee will tomorrow visit some
of the prominent Salt Lake mining men
who would naturally be supposed to
take an interest in and lend a hand TO
his plans. He will take charge of the
making of the statue from the time
the clay model is made until the finish
cd product is turned out.
Should Mr.. Higbee receive the en-
enlargement he thinks he should and
which he doubtless will, he will guar
antee that the work of art Will be one
of which all Utah may well De proud
One of the returned volunteers. an
athletically built soldier, will be Sc
lected as model and every feature of
the figure will be made perfect. even
down to the smallest and most insiS-
nificant detail
As far as human power is able to
make it, the statue will be an actual
Utah batteryman. who, as he leans
over his gun in the act of sighting it
at an imaginary foe, will almost seem
to breathe. Such a figure, in the pre-
cious metal that abounds in Utah's
everlasting hills. will, according TO Mr..
Higbee go a long way toward dispell-
ing the sneering idea of outsiders that
patriotism is not taught within the con-
fines of this state.
People will be made TO know. says
the promoter. that this statue he pro-
poses to place before them is typical
Utah soldier and that there are many
more like him. Mr. Higbee will prob
ably leave for Denver tomorrow night,
as he has some business there in con-
nection with the gold statue he has sue
cessfully raised in Colorado. During
the limited time at his disposal here,
however, he intends to do some hard
work and is sanguine of success.
