The Ohio river t0wboats are begin
ming to pour coal into New Orleans.
The steamer New South left Cincin-
natl on Wednesday for New Orleans.
The steamer Hill City came down
last week, the first trip since the ac-
cident near Memphis recently.
The Louisville COurier-Journal Of
Saturday says: Another rise and
more coal coming. Over 100000
bushels of coal now ON the way South.
Pilot Henry Jones, late Of the City
of st. Louis, who made the last trip on
the Natchez, is now one of the regu-
lar star gazers on that boat, partner Of
William Neihysel.
Captain James Grasty, late of the

the river several days ago to attend to
some business of the St. Louis, is
coming back as pilot on the Dewey, he
having taken the place of Captain
Mike Mcclure, who resigned. New
Orleans Picayune.
Work will be begun shortly on a,
bridge which is to span the Ohio river
from Lashell's landing at Sewickley.
The bridge will cost $3.50, 900, and it is
part of the plan to connect Pittsburg
with Erie by continuous system of
trolley lines, by way of Beaver Falls.
Besides being used as d route for troll
ley cars, it will be toll bridge for
general traffic. The new bridge is to
be suspension bridge, with an eighty
foot span. The plans have been APP
proved by the government engineers.
A beautiful park, the garden spot of
the great Ohio valley, is to be built at
the government lock at Davis island.
River men have taken the matter in
hand and Congressman Dalzell, Ache
son, and Graham have promised to
have the money appropriated at the
present session OF congress with
which to beautify the place and make
1t commensurate with all of Uncle
Sans great works. 1t is estimated
that the improvement will cost in the
neighborhood of 100000 New Or

of Friday has the following to say of
the little tug Vanguard, formerly
owned by w. H. Browns Sons, which
did service for number of years:
The Vanguard, tug, arrived here
Wednesday night from New Orleans,
and was at work in the harbor yester-
day. The tug is built of steel. She
draws s feet and her fudder is n; she
is about go feet long, IS feet high and
about 10 feet beam. The boat will be
kept here permanently to assist the

charge of her yesterday. She carries
a crew of six men. She yesterday did
some work which was never seen here
before. The Joe E. Williams was
leaving for Louisville with a tow of
twenty-four coal boats, and the tug
was ordered to assist her through the
bridges. She was put across the front
of the boats, with the Williams float
ing behind, and did all the steering
and guiding there was to be done. She
can pillow through the water at great
speed.

Washington, Sept 11.-From the formal
that the State Department is not yet
ready to begin it's direct negotiations
with Ii Hung Chang. 1t does not ques-
tion his credentials as a plenipotentiary
but simply leaves that matter in abey-
ance. Probably this is because all of
the powers have not yet returned their
responses to the Russian note and it is
desired to avoid making the United States
the first among the powers to aban-
don the hope of harmonious action, and
strike for itself toward the settlement
directly with China. Also it may be
deemed we'll to wait to hear from Mr.
Conger who, several days ago, was in
vited to express his opinion about quit
ting Pekin. Acting Secretary Hill was
in consultation today with Attorney Cen
eral Griggs, and both were in communi-
cation by wire with The President, but
it was said at the State Department
that beyond the publication of this eX-
change between Minister WI and Act
ing Secretary Hill and of the negative
fact that all the responses to the Rus
sian note were not in, the Department
could not add to the stock of information
as to Chinese developments today. Min
lister WI was twice at the Department.
1t was understood that his first call
was in part, at least, to secure trans
portation for Ii Hung Chang from Shang~
hal to Taku on a United States vessel
His later call was to receive the an
swer to the Department to that applica-
tion as well as to the communicating re-
specting Ii Hung Chang's functions. The
answer returned by the State Depart
ment to the latter communication appar-
emily made it unnecessary at this time
to pursue the inquiry as to the ship; if
lii may not enter into negotiations at
present, there is no occasion to transport
him to Taku. At any rate no call was
made to the Navy Department for a
ship for the purpose indicated.

Lewiston, Mich, Sept. 11.-Tonight
with 375 cities, towns and plantations
heard from out of total of 512, the es-
timated Republican plurality for the State
ticket remains at $4,000. The total vote
of the above towns gives Hill (Rep0, 6S,-
237; Lord Dem.), 3S, 1O1.
The same places in 1896 gave Powers
(Rep.), 76,39S and Frank Dem), 31,790.
These show a Republican loss of II per
cent and a Democratic gain of % per
cent.
One of the notable features of the elec-
tion was the Democratic victory in Knox
county, where, owing to labor troubles,
every Republican candidate was badly
knitted and only Congressman Littlefield
and Sheriff Ulmer succeeded in coming
out ahead of their opponents. The Dem
ocratic candidate for Governor carried the
county and pulled along with him the
Senatorial candidate l.. H. Staples, of
Washington, and the latter will have
che distinction of being the only Dem
ocrat in the upper branch of the Legisla-
ture.

Memphis, Tenn, Sept. 11.-Authentic
information from the storm-swept city of
Galveston reached the Memphis office of
the Associated Press shortly after nine
o'clock tonight. The intelligence came in
the shape of telegram addressed to the
Associated Press from Mayor Jones and
five of the most prominent citizens of
Galveston. The telegram bears cate of
September 18th and states that con-
servative estimate of the loss of life in
Galveston is that it is not over 5000. Five
thousand families are reported destitute
and the destruction to property is great
Following is the telegram in full
Galveston, Texas, Sept. IL, 1900.
ITO the Associated Press, Memphis,
Tenn.
"A conservative estimate of the loss Of
life is that 1T will reach 5000. At least
5000 families are shelterless and wholly
destitute. The entire remainder of the
population is suffering in greater or less
degree, Not a single church, school or
charitable institution, of which Calves
ton had SO many, is left intact. Not a
building escaped damage and half the
whole number were entirely obliterated.
There is immediate need for food, cloth
ing and household goods of all kinds.
If nearby cities will open asylums for wo-
men and children the situation will be
greatly relieved. Coast cities should send
us water as we'll as provisions, including
kerosene oil, gasolene and candles.

SOUTH CAROLINA PRIMARIES.
Mcsweeney Leads HOyt by Over Seven ThOus-
- and Votes
(By the Associated Press.)


Columbia, S. c., Sept. 1.-THE second
Democratic primary passed off without in
cident today. There were about 50, 900
votes cast and $1,000 have been account
ed for. In the first primary two weeks
ago the race was narrowed down to the
two highest candidates for each office.
For Governor THE incumbent, Miles B.
McSweeney, then led Colonel James A
Hoyt by 5000 votes. Two other candidates
received 10000 votes Returns tonight
show McSweeney to be 1900 votes ahead
of Hoyt with his lead increasing as rural
precincts are heard from.
James H. Tillman, nephew of Senator
B. R. Tillman, and a dispensary advocate,
leads John T. Sloan for Lieutenant Gov
ernor by 10000.
W. D. Evans, chairman of the State
Railroad Commission and Vice President
of the National Commission is beaten by
]. H. Wharton by 10, ,0O0
r. B. Scarborough is elected to Congress
over James Norton and Joseph T. Johnson
over Stanyarne Wilson by large majorities.
Scarborough is present Lieutenant Cover
nor. Finley and Latimer retain their
seats in Congress.
Zimmerman, State Treasurer, is beaten
ministration is unchanged.
The race for Governor has been espe-
cially warm. The dispensary was the is
sue. Last December the dspensary di-
rectors fell out among themselves and
scandals were aired Opposition to the
dispensary was aroused. When the cam
paign was opened the Prohibitionists and
other enemies of the dispensary selected
Colonel James A. Hoyt, to lead the fight
against the dispensary. There were three
dispensary candidates, and Governor Nc
Sweeney was in the first primary selected
to fight it out with Hoyt. Senator Till
man came into the campaign against Hoyt.
The result on the main issue is that
the Legislature is for the dispensary by
two-thirds, McSweeney will receive ten
thousand majority and Tillman goes back
ITO the United States Senate.
