Tribe Perish Near Sheridan, WyO.
Great Damage To Property.

Sheridan, Wyo.. April 15.-The flood
has subsidized for the present, but the
damage caused by high water has been
enormous. The people are trying to
figure up the loss of life and property.
As far as definitely known all the dead
are Crow Indians, and the number is
placed at %. The city has lost five
bridges, and has only three left. These
are of iron, and are located in favorable
positions. Main street is cut in two by
the loss of the bridge, as is Broadway
and Fifth avenue. The northern por-
ton of the city was under water, caus-
ing the inhabitants of that portion to
vacate their homes, many of them hav-
ing to wade waist deep in water to reach
places of safety. No greater flood was
ever known in this country, and the foot
hills and mountains are still covered
with an enormous quantity of snow
that will cause high water during the
hot months

Late Justice Field Are Held i'm
Washington.

Washington, April l4.-Impressive
funeral services were held over the re-
mains of the late Justice Stephen j.
Field at the Church of the Epiphany
at 10:30 in the morning. The church

pany gathered to pay their last tribute
of respect and honor to the memory of
the great jurist. Among those present
were President Mckinley, Secretaries
Wilson and Long, Attorney General
Griggs, the British, Russian and Ger
man ambassadors. the Chinese minis
ter and the diplomatic representatives
of other foreign countries, ex-Post-
master General Don NJ Dickinson, ex-
Senator Edmunds, many senators and
representatives and other distinguished
people high in official and social life.
Rev. Satterlee, the bishop of Washing
ton, assisted by Rev. Mackay-Smith, the
pastor of the late justice, officiated. The
simple burial service of the Episcopal
church was read and the choir sang
Lead, Kindly Light" Rock of Ages"
and Nearer, My God, to Thee" Chief
Justice Fuller and his associates on the
supreme bench acted as honorary pail
bearers. The remains were inferred in
a vault at Rock Greek cemetery, where
they will remain temporarily until Mrs.

lnanently buried.

TO- STAND BY KAUTz.
The Admiral's Action I'm samoa Is Sat-
isfactory and He In Upheld
by the Government.

Washington, AprE IA. = Admiral
Kautz' actions i'm Samoa, as far as they
are set forth in the official dispatches,
are approved. He was instructed by the
last mail steamer from Auckland TO
avoid needless collisions, but To protect
property and life until the three treaty
powers decided how to deal with the
situation. No further instructions have
yet been sent to him, and if any go for
ward by cable within the next "a hours,
which is the limit of time available If
the outgoing steamer is to be caught
at Auckland, they will be simply rep
etition of former orders. Department
officials point out that from accounts
so far received the admiral appears to
have acted in conjunction with the
British forces only in pursuance of the
policy of defense of foreign interests.
1t is expected that he will not abate
his efforts TO secure the restoration of
peace, and it is probable that when
the high commission arrives at Apia it
will find its work facilitated through
the suppression of the rebellion.
Washington, April 15.-After hearing
Friday morning from the British and
German embassies, the state depart
ment was enabled To announce positive
ly and finally that the three parties to
the Berlin treaty had agreed upon the
instructions TO be given their Samoan
commissioners, and that it was certain
that the commission would leave San
Francisco on the 25th inst. for Samoa
on the Badger.
