TREATY is GAINING FRIENDS
COIOmbians Are Awakening to Fact
that Canals Enemies Are In
Way of winning.

PANAMA, June 2.-Jose Augustin Arqgo,
the senior senator for Panama. Manuel
Amador Guerrero, Manuel Espinosa, Ba-
tista FREDERICK Boyd and other prominent
men, representatives OF all the interests
of the isthmus, have sent the following
cablegram to President Marroquin at Bo-
gotta:
Colombians, resident and born in the
isthmus, without distinction of political
party, consider of vital Importance the
approval of the HayHerran treaty which
consults present and future interests and
aspirations. The nonapproval of the treaty
with endeavOrs being made to adopt the
Nlcaraguan route is equal TO n degree of
de1nittve revolution in the isthmus, caus-
Ing irreparable evil and giving origin to
antt-patriotic sentiments
The people of the lsthmus apparently at
the last have awakened to the fact that
unless proper influences are exerted the
enemies of the canal will win the battle.
Ricardo Arias leading citizen, has
started the movement with a forclble ar
ticle in which he points out that the Hay
Herran treaty is the only solution to the
most arduous problem that has ever pre-
sented itself to Colombian diplomacy. The
| honorable character of the contracting par
ties, he says, leaves no other suppositior
but that Colombian sovereignty will not b'
impaired.

cHAMsERLAIN,s BIG PICNIC
Invites 5000 of His Constituents to
Garden Party 60 Hear Another
- Tsrin Speech.

LoNDoiV ~ 2.-Mr. Chamberlain has
invited g 900 or =, 7stituents to garden
party at his Birn. Residence on June
10, when it is expe, will speak On
the imperial zollverein On Although
there is unceasing dlscussio. on Mr.. Cham
berlain's proposal as to how the party lead
ers will range themselves
According to the Daily News Sir Michael
Hicks Beach will uncompromisingly oppose
the colonial secretarys proposals. If so
the leadership OF the former chancellor Of
the exchequer will give great strength to
the unionist opposition Of the zollverein
scheme.
In reply to a correspondent, Mr.. Cham
berlain has stated that he relies upon
colonial cooperation as necessary to the
success of his movement.
The conservative leaders anxiously pro-
test that there is no idea OF appealing to
the country yet; but they rather studiously
avoid pronouncing opinion on the CO.
lonial secretary's scheme.
Sir William Ealrond, chancellor Of the
Duchy Of Lancaster. speaking at Tiver-
ton last night. said he did not anticipate
a general election before 1905. He consid-
cred that Mr. Chamberlain's scheme was
one of the gravest and most momentous
problems that this generation had to solve.
No change he continued. should be made

GERMAN TRADE WITH CANADA
Takes Great Britain at It's Word and
Seeks Trade in It's
Colonies.

BERLIN, June 2.-The semi-oficial Moro
Deutsche Zeitung publishes today an ex-
haustive article on the history of Ger
man-Canadian trade relations. 1t declares
that Germany has never had any idea of
interfering with the internal relations of
Great Britain and Canada, but. since
Great Britain has repeatedly laid stress on
the fact that the self-governing colonies
are independent in the matter of CONNER
cial treaties, Germany has perfect right
to treat Canada as a separate country.
The National Zeitung approves OF Ger
many not adopting retaliatory measures
against Canada.

SEE EXTENT OF DISASTER
People of GainesviIIe Now Realize
How sOreIy They Are
smttten.

GAINESVILLE Ca. June 2.-The 5000
inhabitants of this city have tonight just
begun to realize the extent of the appalling
disaster of yesterday. 1t now seems GER
tain that the death list will not be much
short Of 1O0 perhaps somewhat more than
100. considering the number of dangerously
wounded whose chances for recovery can
not be calculated But through all the
gloom and desolation that surrounds the
town like pail Of darkness, there radiated
beam of hope and encouragement-hope
that the death list may not be so numer-
GUS as reported, and encouragement to
those who are 50 bravely and devotedly
assisting in the work of relief.
Figuring from all available sources and
giving credence only to those reports which
are believed to be Trustworthy, the follow
ing is summary OF the effects OF the
tornado in Gainesville. and its cnvirons:
Killed, 100; injured. $50, of whom probably
twenty will die.
There are many homeless with a prop
erty loss of about $4,000. none OF which
was covered by storm insurance.
A concise and accurate statement of the
casualties cannot be rendered for several
days, but the physiciaps in attendance be-
lieve that it will not go very far above
100, although twenty ave or thirty are des-
perately injured and may die within the
next two or three days
The death list so far compiled includes
thirty-two at the Paoolet cotton mills al
New Holland, all of whom were killed ir
the demolition OF the company's cottages
and thirty-six at the Gainesville cottor
mills near the Southern railway station
where the tornado first struck
The tornado visited the towns of Gaines
Vile, New Holland and White Sulphur
| Ga.
Two hundred houses. besides the Gaines
vile Cotton mills, were destroyed by tht
storm. Last night brought increased mis-
cry to the tornado sufferers, for a steady
rain set in late in the afternoon ATTENDED
by bitter cold weather.
All night long physicians and volunteer
pushed their way through the wTeckage
guided to the suffering victims by thei
groans. Here and there a fallen tree woult
be In the way or wrecked house woult
stop the progress.
To the city hall, armory and court hous
the homeless were taken Cor shelter. j
mass meeting was heId today. at whicl
5000 was subscribed fV q relief fund. !
message has been sent to the secretary o
war asking for tents to shelter the home
less and an appeal for aid is made to tn
public.
The dead in Gainesville alone will reacl
100, according to reports submitted at
mass meeting this afternoon. A committe
was appointed by the meeting to bury tn
victims. Thirty days rations for 1000 per
sons were also requested from Secretar
Root.
DR., Smith, the city physician, reports III
teen deaths since last night. when the cas-
ualty list was placed at eighty-five. OF tn
200 or so injured 1t is believed twenty-fiv
more will die.
The militia were called out this mornin
to stop pillaging and to preserve orde
generally.

SUN BREAKS THROUGH CLOUDS
Cessation of Rains and Falling Rivers
Give Hope to Kansas
City People.

KANSAS CITY. June 2.-Blue sky was
visible above Kansas City this afternoon
at O'Clock The rains have ended. The
sun was visible for the first time I'm a
week and for this and other reasons IL
is thought that the great dangers of the
food are past
The waters OF the Kaw river have fallen
eight inches today and tonight are steadily
declining at the rate OF about one-half inch
an hour In the Missouri the high stage
Of thirty-fve feet is still maintained, but
this is due to the rise which has been
coming down the Missouri proper and
which has offset the rise in the Kaw. II
is the water OF the latter stream however,
that has caused all the damage in this
city and in Kansas City Kan, and with It
at normal stage business in Kansas City
will shortly resume usual conditions
This city has by a narrow margin es-
caped a serious shortage Of food, has
faced the Peril OF fire utterly helpless to
avert its consequences, has suffered mil
lions of dollars OF damage TO property and
sustained a loss in life that in all prob
ability never will be accurately measured,
and now IL is commencing TO believe in the
promise of better things.
Waters Are Falling.
Tonight the situation shows improvement
on almost every side. The waters are fall
ing. the waterworks will resume opera
tions tomorrow, the gas has been turned
! into the mains once more and while there
| is no super-abundance OF food, there is nc
| immediate danger OF a serious shortage
The city has cared for its own In roya
| fashion and Is abundantly able to do 50
still, but there is not SUFFICIENT food or
CcOntinued on second PaEe)

and the next day the water will be turned
into the pipes The food supply is ample
on both sides Of the river, the vast guam
titles of meat in the packing houses be-
ing reached by expeditions sent out by the
packers; the predicted increase of sickness
has not appeared, the Kansas river IS fall
ing half an inch an hour and the Missouri
river is expected to begin to fall before
daylight.
Eight persons are positively known to
have been drowned In the two Kansas Citys

FLOODS HAVE REACHED TURNING POINT
SUMMARY OF SITUATION

At Kansas City the Kaw river
has fallen several inches and is
steadily going down. As it is also
falling at upriver points a con
tinued fall is anticipated at Kan
sas City. The Missouri, however,
is tationary, but indications from
points further UP the stream are
that this river will also commence
to fall within the next twelve
hours. AS 1t is the Kansas river
which has done most of the dam
age, the fall in that stream has
enabled the street car companies
to resume operations, the gas
works to resume enough to sup
ply most pressing needs and the
water company expects to resume
today. In the meantime a linn
tied supply of water is being Sc
cured from u temporary pumping
station.
The railroads have managed to
get in a supply of provisions sutti-
cient for immediate needs and the
packing houses have been reached
oy means of boats and the meat
supply is now assured.
The large warehouse buildings
in both Kansas City, Kan, and
Kansas City, Mo-, are beginning
to show the effects of the flood
and many of them are settling,
but it is too early yet to tell what
the extent of the damage in this
direction will be.
Only two additional deaths were
reported, and these were two men
who lost their lives in the attempt
to rescue others.
At Topeka there is no longer any
danger from flood, the principal
difficulty now being to care for
the homeless and guard against
an epidemic among those who
have been weakened by exposure.
In Iowa the floods are subsiding
the entire length of the rivers and
another day will witness the be-
ginning of the restoration of nor
NAL conditions. AS the floods
have receded the condition of the
homes of the people is indeed pitt
full. Many have lost everything
except their lives and are in need
of assistance.
