Almost Unparalleled Dry Spell in
New York and New England.

Almost Unparalleled Dry Spell in
New York and New England.
New York, June 14-New York, New
Jersey and adjoining parts of Massa-
chusetts, Connecticut and Pennsylva-
mia are suffering from the most severe
spring drouth that has visited these
sections in years. Since the snow
melted and the frost came out of the
ground there has been hardly one
good, drenching, soaking rain over all
that section, and for the last three or
four weeks there have been only infre
quent and brief thunder showers. For
100 miles or so around New York city
dust lies deep upon country roads,
streams are low, lawns and pastures
are brown, leaves are falling from
trees. green fruit is shriveling on the
boughs, the soil is hard, of ashy dry
ness and grass is scant and drying at
the roots. From Long Island come re-
ports that Strawberries will not ma
trre, the plants having already put on
a color which indicates the end of the
bearing season. Blackberries and
huckleberries give very little better
promise. Water is low and forest fires
have started i'm Suffolk county, In the
IiOl vi NEW 1Ol anu III AL
bany, Rennesselaer, Saratoga, Schoha-
RE and Green counties all early vege-
tables present stunted appearance.
Farmers in Orange and Sullivan coun-
ties have given up looking for rain and
are cutting their short hay, which has
already began to cure standing.
New Jersey Is in bad condition, her
early crops are badly damaged, and
unless rain comes in great quantities
inside of week the entire spring
planting will prove fruitless.
Fortunately New York city has
enough water stored to obviate all
fears of famine in the boroughs of
Manhattan and Bronx, but if no rain
should fall within this month citizens
of other boroughs may get orders to
economic in their use of water.

American Delegates Correct Some
Misleading Reports.
New York, June 15.-The World COR
respondent at The Hague says:
have obtained for publication in
America the following manifesto is
sued by the American delegates to the
international peace conventions:
This commission is informed that
misleading reports have been cabled
to America regarding the work of the
drafting committee on arbitration and
the exact position of the American pro-
posals.
"'Fhe American plan for permanent
tribunal, which already has been cor
rectly set forth in the American press,
has been referred, with other similar
propositions, to the drafting commit
tee. This committee will report to the
full commission on arbitration the eN-
act text of all other proposals submit
ted, together with Il draft of the pro-
posed plan. embodying such features
of all the plans submitted as the draft
ing committee shall Professionally rec
ommend to the committee on arbitra-
ton.
".Afterward the conference itself will
finally pass Judgment upon the various
projects submitted. The fact that in
the drafting committee the English
proposals are used as basis of dis
cussion does not indicate in the least
the abandonment of any of the other
plans.
sit is not expected that the drafting
committee will be ready to report to
the commission on arbitration for a
week or ten days. All statements re-
garding the work meanwhile must be
accepted as mere surmises."
The drafting committee of the arbi-
tration committee of the peace confer
ence met and continued the discussion
of the arbitration scheme yesterday.
The delegates not having received adj
ditional instructions from their re-
spective governments, the committee
adjourned until Friday without fur

taken to Blair, as there is absolutely
no place left at Herman at which
treatment can be administered.
All the citizens of Blair have thrown
open their homes to the wounded and
the unfortunates are being cared for
by competent surgeons. Many of the
injured will die, but some of them re-
ceived but slight injuries. 1t is impos-
slble at this hour, owing to the con-
fusion, to ascertain the number of
dead, but twelve are known to have
been killed and the list will run very
much higher. Among the badly hurt
is Geo. b. Clyde, the local station agent
for the Omaha at Herman.
Superintendent Jaynes, of the Oma-
ha road, was at Tekamah when he
heard of the disaster, and left at once
for Herman on a handcar, taking two
physicians along with him to assist
in succoring the injured.

thirty-three and one-half miles of UNI
aergronnd electric roads, consisting of
two lines east and west and two lines
north and south, with circular line
