CLOUDBURST IN PANHANDLE.

Dallas. Texas, July IA bulletin from

worth and Denverl railroad says large
scope OF country TO the west. northwest
and southwest of that town was visited by
cloudburst this afternoon which II Is
feared, has done enormous property dam
age and 1t may be that some lives have
been lost. The telegraph line of the Fort
Worth and Denver road the only one In
that part of the Panhandle, is so badly
interrupted by tho storm that details have
not yet reached Childress or other towrs
~ dozen streams, tributaries of the Red,
are out of their banks and flooding the
country. Pease river and Little Red river
seem to have received the heaviest Of
fects of the cloudburst large amount
of Fort Worth and Denver track and num-
erous culverts and two big bridges are
reported to be washed away. The prop
erty damage Is known to be extensive and
1t is feared that farmers and tanchers may
have been caught unwarned. Crops and
live stock are undoubtedly swept away
badly In localities.
bulletin to Fort Worth and Denver
railway officials from Childress tonight
says the heaviest part of the storm was
in the Prairie Dog fork of Red river. The
northbonnd train is being held at Childress
aud the southbound train from Denver has
been stopped at Clarendon. The railroad
officials hope TO get these two trains
through tomorrow. Wrecking trains have
been sent out 10 make repairs. The water
in the streams is said 10 be falling to- /
night. The railroad men at Childress have |
no news that any lives have been lost.

Havana, July 19.--The publication of
the manifesto issued in Matanzas is still
stirring the local papers. La Discussion
saws II was the work of Cubans occupying
hIeh positions under the government who
are desirous of continuance of the Amer
lean administration and was done to make
the Americans believe that the Cubans de-
sire war against them IN order that the
granting OF independence might be de-
layed.
Ell Reconcentrado takes the same posi-.
ton, directly accusing Senior Domingo
Mendez of being at the bottom of the
manifesto. The paper also says that Gen
era Pedro Betanoourt, civil governor of
Matanzas, is also guilty and declares that
La Lucha had knowledge of the facts be-
fore they we're published.
