CLOUD BURST IN TEXAS
NUMBER OF LIVES WERE LOST
Much Property Destroyed nud Many
Hands of sheep Lost-Rancbcs Are
All Swnmps-itniIrOud Tracks Tn
der Water.

SHlCaSO, sept. Zi.-A ulSpatcn from
Dallas, Texas, says: A cloudburst in
the Neuces River country, 80 miles
west of the Southern Pacific road, re-
sulting in terrific food and much loss
of life is reported. Meager details have
been received, but it is claimed from
80 to 40 employees on the sheep ranches
were drowned and all the ranches
swamped. Many flocks of sheep have
been lost and large amount of prop.
erty destroyed. From the most relia.
Bile information obtainaDle tonight ex-
tensive storm damages have been in
ilicted on the Upper Colorado and the
Concho River valleys, particularly near
Brentwood, Blanket and San Angelo.
Wire communication with all these
places is cut off and the railroad lines
damaged so that no trains can reach
them.
Reports indicate that the heaviest
damage is at San Angelo, although
bridges in Brownwood have been
wrecked or injured. 1t is also feared
many lives have been lost The last
report from Brownwood stated the town
was flooded and destroyed by water and
that people and gooos we're being re-
moved to places of safety in row boats
and RATS.
Bulletins from Temple state that
tracks of the Gulf, Colorado & Santa
Fe are under water to the depth of 10
feet south of Brownwood and nothing
can be heard from places up the line.
The rain is pouring down and streams
still rising. The country districts can
not be heard from.
1t is raining hard for approximately
100 miles from Brownwood and as the
streams in that part of Texas are very
treacherous in the matter of sudden
rises a disaster is feared.
Later.
Dallas. Tex, Sept. 2j.-City Marshal
DeIton of Dublin, Tex, tclcphoned AS fol
lows:
The disaster ut Brownwood is reported
here today as being a very serious one.
Eight persons have been drowned and
part of the town badly wrecked by water
The town is entirely cpt off, both by wire
and mail. The Fort Worth & Rio Grande
railroad west of Dublin is crippled by
| washouts, and as the wires are down
trains that have been laid out can moi be
heard from. No lives have been lost near
Dublin, but the property loss is large.
The Leon river and its branches have
swept over an immense area in the coun
try around Dublin. Further to the west,
in the Brownwood section, the Colorado,
Chonco, Pecan and other rivers and their
Tributaries have made widespread damage,

Cant hear II word from Brownwood
country. Wires gone and traffic suspend

Ncuces river valley, Texas, say in a little

Lonuon, Sept. 24.-Charles Yerkes
London railroad deal, the purchase OF the
franchise OF the Charins Cross, Euston

erablc interest. lie is said TO be paying
l. 100000 ior the right, which has yielded
the promoters handsome profit. The
piesent plans OF the syndicate involve

english are not asked to subscribe creates
astonishlnent which the Daily Telegraph
well voices, saying: Further develop
ments in connection with electric traction
arc talked OF by MIR. lerkes, but by lar
the most startling development in the
change which such events AS the building
of an underground road in London with
American capital proves 10 have taken
place, in the economic conditions OF the
United States.
Until the last few days Europe had to
supply II large part Of the capital needed
for the development Of American indus
tries. In 1895 it was foreign capital that
saved her from disaster. Now her capital
ists are not only subscribing to English
war loans in cxchequer bonds and Ger
man treasury bills, but an American syn
dcatc declares its intention Of spending
several millions in order TO build rail
way in London ON which, at the best, the
profit can be but medium"
The American jockeys have been doing
splendid work lately. How splendid can
be Judged from the fact that London
daily heads today's racing report: "The
American Peril" During the week l..
Reiir reached the top Of the jockey list,
but finished just two wins behind Loates,
closely followed by little Johnny Reiff. At
Lingield, Lester rode three am Johnny
four winners in succession. Johnny, at
Birmingham, won all but one race.
''Some Of our English jockeys" re-
marked an evening paper, "had better sell
their breeches and boots" A well-known
society woman is said to have won flO,-
900 by consistent backing Of Lester Reiir.
Danny Maher's appearance has brought
out many compliments from the English
critics. A well known trainer, after ex-
haustive experiments with the English
and American styles of riding, declares
the secret lies in the fact that the seat,
even with experienced jockeys, increases
a horses stride "a yards in every mile.
The results OF the experiments receive
considerable publicity.

strike situation.

Philadelphia, Sept. 23.-At the end Of
the first week of the strike in the anthra.
cite coal fields Of Pennsylvania there are
not wanting signs of desire on the part
OF some strikers to return TO their work.
This sentiment is generally confined, so
far as reported, to the English speaking
element among the mine-workers. Exper-
fence has shown that these men are the
most conservative, the foreigners being i'm
pulsive and hotfNmpered in strike times.
Notwithstanding the serious outbreak, ne
cessitating the sending of troops to Schuyl-
kill county, everything is reported quiet in
the entire coal region tonight. There is a
feeling that efforts will be made in all
districts Monday TO start the mines that
are now idle. The persistence of the cor.
porations and individual owners in as
scrting that they will consider grievances
Of their employees individually, but will
never under any circumstances treat with
the United Mine. Workers, has undoubted-
~ had its effect, and it would not be sur
prising il many mines that have been
closed since the strike began res, -ne opcr'
ations, at least partially, the beginning of
next week.
