P. Snyder's candidacy and prospective
nomination for Auditor General by the
next Republican State convention is said
to please his great host of friends in his
home county of Chester immensely.
Wherever the Senator is known, and
that is in practically every section of the
State, he is very popular. In him the
party would have strong candidate,
with clean record and free from party

Colombo, Seylon, March 24.-Charges
Of the most serious nature have been
brought against Maj. Genera Sir Hec-
tor Macdonald, commanding the forces
in Ceylon, in consequence of which the
governor of that island, Sir Jos West
ridgeway has been authorized to con-
Vene a cour martial to try General
Macdonald. The latter when the
charges were filed some time ago, went
to England to confer with his friends,
and superior officers INC now it is
derStood he will return and face the
charges, which, it is alleged, are based
on immOra acts.
London, March 24.-The
ment from Colombo that Major Cen
eral Macdonald is to be tried by court
martial on most serious charges of i'm
moral conduct, will undoubtedly prove
to be the greatest sensation in British
military circles since the case of Col
onel Valentine Baker, who was sen
fenced August 2, 1876, to pay a fine of
$500 n to undergo twelve months
imprisonment, for indecently a
ing a I'M in a railroad carriage.
General Macdonald was regarded as
one of England's greatest soldiers He
rose from the ranks in the Gordon
H~ighlanders to his present position and
the service list shows no more hon.
orable war record than that of Mac
Donald, while few officers possess
harder won decorations. He was ex-
tremely popular in the army and civil
life. While the army officials and
many of his brother officers were aware
that charges were pending against
General Macdonald, no intimation of
their nature leaked out until the din
ner of the officers Of a Highland regi-
ment March 21st, at which General
Macdonald was not present. Lord
Roberts, the commander-in-chief, paid
tribute in a speech or that occasion to
the Highland officers who had served
with distinction, but he did not men
ton Macdonald.
This attracted considerable notice and
the sensation was increased when n
other speaker, who was not aware OF
the facts in the case, lauded MacDon-
aid as a typical Highland soldier and
found that his remark were received
in cold silence by he majority Of the
officers present. General Macdonald,
it is announced, left England for the
continent some days ago n it is I'M
derstood hat he is returning to Cey-
lon under the advice of Lord Roberts,
after hearing MacDonald's version of
the charges.

Vicksburg, Miss, March pa new
danger has appeared on the Mississippi
river, rather serious reports coming to-
day from Everton, three miles south of
Rosedale in Bolivar county. The main
leee at that point is said to be slough
ing and leaking badly. A special train
with several hundred laborers was
rushed to the danger points from Green
vile. Heavy northwesterly winds have
prevailed today, adding another ele-
ment of danger to the situation. The
break Of a private levee near Duvalls
yesterday evening has not tested fully
the main entertainments.
Scores of refugees, many of them des-
tltute, came yesterday and today and
the problem of what 20 do with them
is becoming serious. 1t is estimated
that fully six hundred head of live
stock were brought from the flooded
section Of Issquene county yesterday.
President Mcclellan of the fifth le-
VIC ulolllSI UOdIu, ISpOIlS To-Day CndC
the entire line is intact and with a con-
inuance Of fair weather, he sees no
reason why the Louisiana levees cannot
be held. Forty or fifty negro families,
living in the low lands, had to hurriedly
flee from their homes this afternoon, a
small protesting levee having given
way. This 1evee was sixty feet long,
having been thrown across a roadway
where it cut through the Alabama M
V~icksburg railroad embankment. Here
the water is running with great force.
The guage here tonight registers 51.1
a two-tenths rise since morning.
Natchez, Miss, March 23.-Water
from the Bougre revasse is breaking
up Black river, which is above the
danger line. B. B. Barham, of the fifth
Louisiana levee board, notified J. G..
Thomas Reber, superintendent of the
Natchez and Vicksburg Packet Compa-
ny not to permit his boats to LAND at
Hole In The Wall, as the levee is now
weak and it was feared some damage
would ensue. The Natchez guage to-
night stands 49.5 or 5.5 above the maxi
mum in 1897, and rising.
Memphis, Tenn, March 23.-The river
has remained stationary all day at 1875
feet and tonight is reported to be fall
ing. The danger from the flood in this
territory is considered to be practical
ly over and no further developments
of moment are expected in the natural
course Of events.
The centre of interest is now the sit
uation south Of Memphis, along the
levees of Mississippi, Louisiana and Ar
kansas. There has been considerable
wind today and this has caused uneas-
mess along the levees. It has been fair
the greater part of the day and the
rain that fell this morning was not
heavy and was not considered cause
for additional uneasiness.
While the engineers feel that there is
no danger to be feared in the territory
about Helena, they know of the Uncer-
tainties of the Mississippi n no les
soning of vigilance has occurred.
Forces of men are being kept available
so that they can be rushed to any point
where unfavorable developments oc-
cur.
