NEW ORLEANS WAS
 NOT SERIOUSLY HURT.

New Orleans, August 16-The storm has passed and seems to have done no great damage anywhere except along the river below the city, fatalities occurring near the rivers mouth. In the city the only injury was to the lakeside resorts and to the section flooded by the break in canal bank, which was closed before morning. Rice and orange farms on the lower coast were severely injured. The inhabitants there believe that they were struck by a tidal wave combined with cyclone The lives lost were half a mile above Quaran- tine. A large house was overturned with fifteen people in 1t. and Mrs. Rosa Walk CT, her 10-year-old daughter Ida, Miss Birdie Golden and Miss Ella Golden were killed. The crew of the tugboat Biloxi sought refuge a few hundred yards away and two of the sailors-Blaine Davidson and Peter Yea-were drowned and the boat lost

People Will Elect But LegIsIa- lure Will Provide Method
 of Election
MANY MEMBERS DELINQUENT
They Kept the Convention Entertained for Several Minutes With Their Excuses for Being Late-Trou-
 be in Getting Quorum.
BY FRANK HARVEY MILLER.

Montgomery, August 16.-(Special) = The convention today settled the long- drawn out fight on the solicitor question by adopting a compromise measure.
 This provides for the election of solici- tors by the people instead of by the Leg islature. with a proviso that the Legis- lature shall determine the mode of elect ing or appointing county solicitors.
 The proviso is the compromise feature, the other being the majority report of the committee which adopted an ordi- nance originally introduced by Mir. Gra- ham of Talladega.
 The adoption of this section and the discussion thereon consumed the morning session, except the time taken up i'll ob- taining a quorum and hearing the ex- cuses of delinquent members. These caused much amusement and were or dered left out of the stenographic re- port,
 At the afternoon session the question of the Mobile school system came up. The committee had reported a section al- lowing this system to remain as at pres eDt, and this section was adopted
 The convention will probably have to adjourn to await the report of the com mittee on harmony. This report is being delayed by the printers. The suffrage article was furnished them on the 9th, but Captain White stated this morning that the committee had been unable to get any printed copies from them.
 Obtaining a Quorum. The seventy-third days session of the constitutional convention was called to order by President Knox at o'clock. A prayer was offered by Rev. Dr. Andrews.
 There was considerable difficulty in ob called several times a quorum was fin. ally obtained. A list of the absent dele gates on the first roll call was furnished the sargeant-at-arms and he was in- strllcted to summon them before the bar of the house The sergeant-at-arms Is an old Confederate soldier named Robert Hasson. He lost a leg during the war and now goes on a wooden leg. He stumped around the hall and finally sum- moned delegates Hefiin, Spragins, Cofer and Fitts.
 Acting on a biblical precedent they one and all began to make excuses
 MT. Hefiin said he was eating breakfast down at Fleming's and didn't notice the clock.
 His explanation was accepted by the convention.
 MT. Spragins said MT. Fletcher brought his little boy down last night and he had to take him to the doctors this morn- ing. That's beautiful" exclaimed a del- egate. His excuse was accepted.
 MT. Cofer said he was delayed on &C., count of the inefficient system of the Montgomery street railroad Great laugh ter and applause His excuse was accept ed.
 MT. Fltts said he fell into a dreamless sleep last night and breakfasted with the president of the convention, who was so

SOLDIERS STILL IN POSSESSION.
Troops Have Not Evacuated Public
 Buildings In China.

PelSin August 16.-The troops of the powers have not yet evacuated the public buildings The British and Americans propose to occupy the Temple of Heaven and the Temple of Agriculture until their barracks are ready.
 Sir Ernest Satow, the British minister. thinks it would not be wise to withdraw before the protocol has been signed in conjunction with the Chinese plenipo- tentiaries, as withdrawal would remov, the chief inducement to the Chinese to sign.
 The Japanese still hold the northern section of the city. It Is considered sig nificant of their relations with the Chi nese that Japanese colonel has been elected to command and organize the Chf- nese police.
 The opinion is growing that the court will refuse to return so long as the pow CTS maintain such large forces in the province of Chi Li.
 The protocol does not provide for the destruction of theforts, the ministers of the powers having failed to agree on this point,

building and causing much fright among the occupants.
 The greatest damage done in this city was the destruction of shade trees and the blowing down of trees and outhouses. The store house of c. M. Beggarly a West nEd merchant, was badly demol- ished and his goods damaged. All trains are late except those coming and going over the Alabama and Vicksburg road. Several trains were annulled last night owing to washouts, and there were a number several hours late.
 The Mobile and Ohio train No. south yesterday afternoon did not reach Mobile, but stopped at Whistler and returned. The track for quite a distance near Mo- bile was under water and impossible.
 In fact, 1t Is reported this morning that a good portion of the Gulf City was sub merged yesterday afternoon and last night.
 The Western Union telegraph office at that point was two feet under water at { o'clock this morning.
 The A. G. S. train due here at 2:30 this afternoon came in five hours late. AL though the train ran on slow orders the delay was not entirely due to the floods but to waiting orders at Chattanooga for the Cincinnati train.

not able to say when traffic on the di- vision would be resumed.
 While the storm was not as severe as the record-breaker of 1893, there was greater excitement among the people be- cause of recollection of the great damage of the earlier storm. The people are ap- prehensive of a repetition of that disaster and spent miserable night Out of doors every one was thoroughly drenched py the heavy rain that was blowing almost nor izontally.
 An incident of the afternoon was the appearance of a wild bull in the streets which was chased by the men and poys. The animal turned and charged them, however. goring one man, Chas. W ackel' very seriously. Two horses were lnJuIeu, one of which had to be killed. The pun was shot to death by the police al o'clock after being In possession or the streets for three hours.
 Rescuinq the Marsh People.
 During the storm the steamboat Lady Jane went to the rescue or the truoh gardeners who live In the marshes pc been Mobile and Spanish rivers. In tns 1893 flood the people there suffered grea.iy and a half dozen were drowned. The I,ady Jane rescued all that could be reached and brought them to the city. One marsh dweller named Stauter ana his family of nine spent the night In an open boat near his house and roWed 10 the city this morning He does not thlnk anything Is left of his place. The other marsh people returned today.
 News tonight Is that the pleasure yacht Ariel bound for Fish river with Robert and Winthrope Hallet of Mobile, and some others on board pounded to pieces upon the wharf at Battles on the east ern shore. Nothing has been heard of the crew.
 From the Fowl river on the western shore it is reported that the schooner Marguerite was taken up bodily and left high and dry on the beach. James Me Mahon and four other men were on board. Mchiahon says a house on Dauphin is- land was washed away and afterward found in the woods. Nothing Is known as to the fate of the occupants. All wires have been in hopeless wreck for the bett part of twenty-four hours For fifteen hours there was no means of communication with the outside world, Even now but few wires are working and they are doing but little. There is no wire between Mobile and New Orleans and no prospects of any for several days The telegraphic lines on that division are exposed to the fill sweep of the wind from the Gulf, and poles are prostrated for miles,
