Insurance People Hit Hard.

Ottawa, Ont, April 3O.-Although two
days have passed since the confiagration
which practically wiped the city Of Hull
out OF existence and devastated a large
part OF the city of Ottawa, there is vet
no means of knowing the exact amount
OF the loss or the insurance. The total
loss is still conservatively placed at about
Sl5,ooO,OOO. Z. B. Eddy is still the heav.
lest loser in property, and has only $780,
ooo insurance. One estimate gives the in
s''iailce loss as follows: In the British
companies, $2,5OO,OOO; American com.
panies, $l,25O,OOO total, $4,000, 600. It
VIII be some days, however before any
accurate figures can be had.
Hundreds of people from the surround.
ing district and many from distance Wis
ited Ottawa to see the ruins today. The
death list of seven persons remains the
same as yesterday.

HEAVY FLOODS N !Lal
THE LOSS WILL BE ENORMOUS.
Had the Heaviest Rains on Record
All the Rivers Are Overfiowing-a
Five MilIion Dollar Loss-Ask
for Aid.

Waco, Tex, April 30-The flood situa-
ton remains practically unchanged. Con-
ditions could hardly be worse. Every
available wagon, dray and float was
brought into use and the entire night was
spent in moving hundreds of families out
of the submerged district. There are
no new names added to the list Of fatal
tiles, but reports of persons missing and
who were last seen in thesoyerflowed Sec
tion are numerous. A call for aid, sign
ed by the mayor and many prominent
citizens, has been sent out.
The local weather bureau gives the rain
fall for the past "a hours as 4.05, the
heaviest on record. 1t was believed that
the worst of the overflow was at an end
until the government bureau posted the
following bulletin today;
Excessive rains throughout the BRACES
drainage basin will probably cause de-
cided rise in the Brazos river, overflow
ing much low land from McLennan coun-
| ty to the gulf during the next 10 days.
Please warn residents along the river"
Much anxiety is now felt over the Bra
EOS overflow, and runners have been sent
| to notify the farmers in the lowlands
The flood yesterday was not alone con-
fined to this county.
Temple and Bolton, 80 miles south, re.
ported vast damage by overflows, the
rainfall at Temple being 5.94, by far the
heaviest ever known.
Specials from Bolton say: "Not since
1852 has this city and vicinity been visit
ed by such a dOwnpour of rain as fell
here during the past two days. The Sa-
lido river broke all previous high water
marks and destroyed the fine iron wagon
bridge at this place. At Summersville
the school house was carried away and
bridge at Little River, on the main line
of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas road is
wrecked. The electric plant is flooded
and the city is in total darkness.
No Signs of Receding.
Dallas, Tex, April 3O.-The floods show
no signs of receding. On the contrary,
most of the Texas rivers are rising. "A
Fort Worth telegram at 10 o'clock says
| LudI lllHIty IlNeI HAS OfCAhOWcuJ u'AA6
much property damage.
The telegraph lines of both companies
are gone south of Waco, isolating more
than half of the state.
! Railroad movements are absolutely sus-
pended south of Dallas on almost every
line in the state.
The loss by flood and hurricanes since
yesterday morning is estimated to reach
from 100000 to 100000.
Reports received from southern and
central Texas state that great destruction
has occurred.
| A bulletin from Galveston at noon says
the government weather bureau reports
that the whole state was visited yester-
day by the greatest precipitation, and es-
pecially in Temple county, where it ap-
proXimates six inches.
Calvert reports l5-foot rise in the
river there.

Terrific Explosion.

Ritzville, Wash, April 30.-The powder
house at Lind, hamlet about six miles
east of here, blew up Saturday. The ex,
plosion shook every building for miles
around, wrecked the freight house and
depot office, tore down telegraph poles, de.
stroyed part of the stock in Dirstine's
drug store, and broke nearly every win.
dow light in town.
The powder house, which is near the
depot and freight house, contained 500
pounds of dynamite and caps. The house
caught fire, it is supposed, by the care
lessness Of Japs in dropping a lighted
match on the floor after lighting the
lamps.

The BOERS WERE TOO SWIFT
ENGLISH IN HOT PURSUIT.
They Have Plenty of Troops-Ought
to Wipe the Beers Out IL They
Overtake Them-several Trans
ports Have Arrived.

| London, April 30.--The total absence Of
! war office news from the seat of war in
South Africa, it is presumed, indicates
that operations are progressing, which il
is deemed prudent to keep secret. Sc
far as the situation in the southeastern
part of the Free State can be worked out
from the latest dispatches the main body
of the Beers, composed of the forces re-
Gently holding Thabanchu, Leeuw KoI
and Dewetsdorp, is retiring, probably with
view to joining in the neighborhood Of
Ladybrand, the Commands from the viein-
ity of Wepener who, according to dis
patch from Aliwalnorth, dated April %
made good their retreat to Ladybrand
The main body of the Beers is being fol
lowed by Generals Hamilton, French
Brabant and Hart, while General Rumble
also is ON the spot.
The British thus have an overwhelm
ingly superior force and ought to wipe out
the Beers if they succeed in overtaking
them and bringing them to bay.
1t may be assumed that the Beers are
to the eastward of line drawn from
Thabanchu to Wepener. The retreat, il
seems, is being carried out without fight
ing, which indicates that the Beers have
good start and the dispatches say that
they are not hampered much by transport
and leave no visible wheel tracks behind
them on the veldt. This initiates against
the probability of their being overtaken
and forced to decisive action. While
it is possible that news of such battle
may come at any moment the chance
seems even that the retreating comman
dos may get away without being forced
to turn and fight. 1t is within the range
of possibilities that Lord Roberts, with
out waiting for the outcome of these
maneuvers may begin his advance north
ward. This may be the secret the censor
has been so jealously guarding. The out
come of this interesting situation can moi
long be delayed.
Smelling and sniping continue about
Warrenton, apparently Intellectually, a:
no casualties have been reported on either
side.
A special dispatch from Biera, dated
April 20, states that the dispatch of Gen
eral Carrington's division to Rhodesia i:

will permit. Seven transports have al
ready landed troops and stores.
Firing Heard Near 1habanchu.
Maseru, April So.-Firing was heard
in the direction of Thabanchu for some
hours. Many Beers are retreating from
Wepener and Dewetsdorp, proceeding by
crossroads instead of the main roads neal
the Basutoland border. 1t is reported
that they are in miserable condition
diseased and depressed. Many have de
serted and are hiding on the farms. The
main body was in camp last night neal
Leeuw river mills They were unham
pered by wagons, using pack holders most
ly for purposes of transportation. 1t is
believed that most of the Tansvaaler;
have gone north. They told the native:
that they had been called away by Pres
