age than cause small amount of in
convenience to pedestrians. On the
Island the rain did not appear to be SO
heavy as in the city, and on the Ohio
side 1t was not severe rain and NO
damage was reported.
On the line of the Ohio River road
there was a washout OF a bridge at
Woodlands. delaying the north bound
evening train. due in the city at 1856

was reported in thai direction, and the

North of the city there was an or
dinarily heavy rain, but no news of
loss was received in the city.
From the indications as viewed from
this city, between five and six O'Clock
the rain must have been heavy in the
northern portion of Marshall county.
At Benwood the rain was only mod
crate, but farther back in the county il
was evidently heavier.

A LOCAL STORM
Extending Over Very Small Sec
ton of Territory-In the City and

ton of Territory-In the City and
Vicinity.
The storm was threatened for prac-
tically twenty-four hours, as the bar
ometer did not rise above the 29.20
stand it took on Thursday. At noon
gradual decline set in. and the fall be-
tween that time and dusk was about
ten points. The small showers at
noon and in the afternoon were but the
predecessors of what was TO come.
Several times after three o'clock there
was thunder, but no rain, but the sky
gradually darkened in the east. while
in the west it was clear. and at five
o'clock, with the eastern sky as black
as your hat, the west was clear and
there was bright sunshine over the
city. The conditions east and south
east of the city rapidly became worse,
however, and amid lightning and
thunder the storm broke in the country,
and gradually extended westward to-
wards the city, where a perfect deluge
fell, the registered depth being i: 10
inches.
In the country it was undoubtedly
heavier, and southeast OF the city, in
Marshall county, was probably worse
still. The storm was only a local one,
and did not extend up the valley of
Big Wheeling creek, or farther along
the pike than Point Mills North Of
the pike, up the Bethany pike and along
Peters and Longs runs. the rainfall
was very heavy. and almost necessi-
tates the use Of the term "cleudburst. 2
In the city the streets were badly
flooded, and in some localities there
were narrow escapes from Losses. At
Sixteenth and Market streets the water
overfowed the sidewalk and entered the
cellar of Klari's drug store. and was
almost upon level with the first floor.
At Fourteenth and Main the streets and
sidewalks were alike flooded, and a big
plank was washed across the street
railway track, blocking traffic for q
time. At Main and South streets there
was another bad sitration- The hill

MINERS STRIKE.
Situation Remains Practically the
Same.


Same.
The operators in ub-district No &
and especially those in the Panhandle
district who refused to agree with the
majority OF the operators, still refuse
to sign the scale, and in the whole dis
tr1ct about six hundred miners are still
idle.
The trouble at the opening of the
new mine at Adena is still giving the
men trouble, and from the present out
look it will be fight to a finish. At
the Glencoe mine the trouble has been
settled, as the company signed the
scale some time ago and any union
miner can work at the mines. State
Vice President Sullivan and District
President Smith held meeting at the
mines yesterday and organized the
men, and as the scale is being paid all
will soon be working as usual. The
trouble at Flushing is still on and
some of the miners are leaving.
Messrs. Sullivan and Smith will hold
meetings as follows to-day: At Mounds
vile at one o'clock; and at Glencoe at
four O'Clock. On Monday meetings
will be held at Elm Grove and Gil
christ's Mines.
The strike has been on for twenty
days and the trouble was thought TO
have been settled but some of the
operators had grievances. All the
larger mines are working.

Last Tuesday the committee on Pri-

report on the contested election case

that after going oveI the whole matter
carefully, and listening TO MI the argu-
sments in the case, they must recon
mend that Mr. Cook be allowed to re-
tain the seat TO which he had been
elected 1t will lie remembered that
Mr.. Cook had been chosen as demo-

publican candidate. All the members
of the committee but one were republl-
cans, ard so they've edeciding against
a man of their own political faith.
Some members of the assembly who
were friendly to Mr. Vandercook were
DESTROYS of having the MATTER referred
to the committee, on Judiciary but the
assembly voted not to do s.. Then
they tried to have it sent back to the
committee on Privileges and elections
for further consideration and more
detailed report. This, also, the~assem-

done. Then asvote was taken Oh the
adoption of the report. the roll being
called fop the yeas and nays. There
were 81 yeas and Ii nays. This showed
a positive opinion on the part of the
assembly that Mr.. Cook should retain

The Passenger department OF the
Rock Island Railway announces the
lowest rates to Cleveland on account of
the Il. "A. Il. encampment. September
Z to II, that have been accorded the Old
Soldiers since 1857. The rate is less
than one fare for the round trip. Tick
cts will be on sale from stations west of
the Missouri river, September TO 10
inclusive and will he good to return up
to and including September Is, but the
return limit may be extended until
October by depositing the tickets with
Joint Agent before September Is and
paying fee of fifty cents.
The trip to Cleveland will be one of
much pleasure and enjoyment. Theex-
tremely low rate made by the Rock
Island will make it possible for large
numbers of the old soldiers and their
friends to go at "a very small expense.
From Cleveland there will be cheap
rates in effect enabling those who desire
to visit the Pan-American Exposition
and this trip TO Buffalo can be made
either by rail or boat.
Cleveland is making a special effort
to take the best care possible of the
veterans as we'll as visitors and afford
them every possible opportunity for
pleasant and ENJOYABLE time while in
the city. The new soldiers monument
located in the public square will be
completed; the electric lighting effects
OF this monument, it is said will eclipse
anything OF its kind heretofore at

A Sensible Writ. I

The granting OF u writ of supersedeas
by the supreme court in the revenue
case came Just at the right line. Affairs
with regard to the assessmeDtseof rail
way corporations. and indeed With ref
erence to all assessments, were In a
thoroughly uncertain state. The state
bnard'of equalization in obedience to the
command of Judge Dixon was about to
proceed with the assessment Of railway
corporations under the old law. The
state board of assessors, body Of thir-
teen members created under the new
law, was, acting under legal advice,
about to proceed, also, with the assess
mont of these corporations under the
provisions of the new law.
But the action of the supreme court
in granting writ of supersedeas. max
Ing Judge Dixon's decision imperative
until the supreme court itself passes
upon the matter, clarifies the atmos-
phere greatly. 1t leaves the revenue
law of the state in precisely the condi-
tion that it was left by the state legisla-
ture. There is. therefore, no law ex-
cept the new law, and the state board
of assessors is in duty bound TO proceed
at once with the assessment under this
law.
The advantages Of the present situa-
ton, then, are obvious. for there will
not be two bodies working at cross pur-
poses over these assessments. The rail
road companies are to DO assessed as
other property is to be assessed. The
work may steadily 90 forssr&s thpesl,
the supreme court shonid dstny il, finai
hearing in the case. And even though
the decision Of the court should be
against the state and against the reve-
nue. law it will not cause very great de-
lay and but little change in the assess
ment. for the governor has declared his
belief in the new revenue law in the
strongest terms. And if the supreme
court decides adversely to the state he
will at once call an extra session of the
legislature for the purpose of requesting
the bill. 1t will be seen. therefore, that
the state itself and the average tax
payer in the state Is in much better
shape since the issuance of this writ
than before. All now stand upon a
common ground and only an adverse
decision of the supreme court. which
will be quickly remedied, stands in the
way of the enforcement of one of the
hest revenue laws upon the statute
books of any state Colorado Springs
