NIAGARA FALLS, N. Y, June To-
Four hundred brewers, coming from
all parts Of the country and represent
ing millions OF invested capital,
thronged the assembly room of the
Cataract hotel today at the opening
ef the annual convention of the United
States Brewers association. Presi-
dent N. W. Kendall of New Haven
called the gathering to order. Secre-
tary Gallus Thomann read the official
call for the gathering, which said in
part:
We are surrounded by host of
implacable enemies whose malignity
and lanaticism bid fair to overrule
every requirement of justice, and ev-
cry consideration of public utility. Our
industry, though legal one, is con-
stantly exposed to innumerable dan
gers, and it behooves us to combine
closely for the protection of our mu.
tual interests
The sessions of the convention are
to continue two days, during which
time there will be papers and discus
sions covering numerous matters re-
lating to the brewing industry.

pointed a committee Of able and hon

cation of conditions at the institu-

East st. Louis Flooded.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, June 10-With the
river risen to 37.9 feet this morning,
the highest point reached during the
present flood, East st. Louis city
of $4,000, having large manufacturing
interests and the terminal point for
railroads from the north. east and
south is partly under water and will
probably be totally submerged by
noon. The southern half of East st.
Louis this morning is caves deep in
the flood and the city's $500 lcvee
builders have fallen back on Missouri
avenue, in their attempt to save the
remainder of the city, which is men
aced by swelling waters from three
sides. Lee Harper, former city en-
gineer, says the water will be two feet
deep in front of the city hall before
O'Clock this evening. Seven miles
of water pressing from the south and
southwest overcame the city's line Of
defense shortly before o'clock this
morning, and 5000 persons were driv-
en- from their homes. Numerous re-
ports of drownngs have been received
but the East St Louis police have
thus far learned no names of victims.
One thousand men were working on
the part of the levee which broke.
a few of the workers on the embank-
ment remained at their post until the
rushing waters made it necessary for
them to swim for their lives then
they Joined their companions in warn
ing the residents Of the thickly set
tied district. The awakened families
saw the water i'm the streets, and when
they we're ready to leave with their
hurriedly collected stock Of necessities
the flood was at their sills. All fed
to the north. The water is not ex.
pected to reach it's level in the flooded
part OF the city before noon.
The utmost confusion reigns in East
St Louis this afternoon and 1t Is I'M
possible to confirm any Of the reports
Of the drowning which may aggregate
fifty and which win probably be much
less. Congressman Rodenburg who
has charge of the patrol along Broad
way which cuts the town into east
and west and leafs to the Eads bridge.
gives it as his estimate the number
will be about thirty. The only drown
ings coming under his personal OBJ
servation were those of two women
and a man who lost dheir lives near
his post of duty.

they wanted their actions also to be
investigated. The governor expressed
the highest confidence In the board.
but said that in view of the importance
OF the matter and the wishes of the
board, he would appoint such a COM
mittee and see to 1t that every facility
for the most thorough possible inves-
tigatlon was given.
The Optic is satisfied that the COM
mittee appointed is an excellent one.
Dr. Bryan is president OF the Territori-
al Medical association, surgeon forthe
II Paso & Northwestern and one OF
the finest physicians in the territory.
DR.. Mcconnell is Canadian physician
Of fine ability. Attorney Il. Y. Chaves,
a democratic leader, belongs to one
Of the oldest Spanish families in the
territory. H. NJ. Dougherty OF Socor-
70 is leading democratic attorney.
DR.. Hernandez, the noted eye and
throat specialist, Is independent in
politics. He is a native Of Madrid,
Spain. OF every member of the COM
mittee II may be said that he Is q
man OF the highest character who is
to be depended upon to pass fairly
upon all evidence presented and to
report upon conditions In the light OF
honest conviction.
The charges aaginst the manage
ment divide themselves into two parts
--one, of cruelty to patients; the 9TH
er, Of the improper treatment of the
remains OF woman. The matter Of
the quantity and quality OF food fur
nished to patients is involved, as well
as the amount Of work and length of
hours. and general treatment Of at
tendants. Further. the committee will
investigate the motives and conduct
OF those responsible for the charges.
The evidence Of all the discharged en-
ployes who can be brought before the
board will be taken, as well as the
evidence Of present attendants, men,
bers Of the board and management
and patients In rational frame Of mind.
No doubt the testimony will be sworn.
The people Of the city and OF the
territory have wanted an investigat.
ing committee which every one would
be satisfied would investigate. and the
report Of which every one would ac-
cept as final. The committee ap-
pointed yesterday noon will. no doubt,
give general satisfaction. Its work

the whole, the tidings were reassuring.
Several small buildings along the
banks of the arroyo were washed
away, the big iron railroad bridge one
mile above the city was swept from
its foundation, a long strip Of track
was softened and considerable stock
was drowned. The water invaded the
Harvey storerooms and yards. dam
aging some OF the provisions and
drowning five small pigs. A colt, some
sheep and some dead chickens we're
the victims of the flood On the whole,
the loss is not excessive.
The Gallinas was up to a level with
the bridge between the east and west
side. The big iron bridge of the Santa
re over the Gallinas was in peril. Had
the flood tide of the water in the
Galinas and Arroyo Pecos converged,
there would have been little chance
for 1t.
On the Sape!lo the storm created
worse havoc. The hail was terrific
and the stream assumed the proper
tions OF great. angry river. There
was much loss to farmers and stock
men. AS far as learned the heaviest
individual loser was Albino Gallegos,
who had 500 sheep swept away. Many
rods Of fence at the Hand ranch went
by the board.
Al the stock yards apove the city
as much as ten feet of hail was piled
up by the waters. After daylight this
morning great banks of hail could be.
seen here and there along the ar
roya.
Marshal Outright observed a
strange sight near the Harvey store
houses. Upon a mass OF driftwood sat
fat porker, making the air vocal
with his lusty yells. His raft struck
against bank, and the pig jumped
nimbly ashore and ran to safe place.
A. G. Harlow and two other young
men by means of stout rope saved
the life of a horse that had been
caught in the current. No doubt, 9TH
er tales OF heroism remain to be told.
In the city the damage seems to
have been trivial Out on Fifth street
a considerable stretch Of brick side
walk has been undermined, and the
streets are a Quagmire. The rain has
been a godsend. but some irreligious
citizen was heard to remark yesterday
that he feared the Lord was overdo-
ing the matter. Anywey, sssnter sxrs
AMI an occasional glimpse Of the sun
would be welcome Ten days OF al
most constant rain and gloom is a
record-breaker for this part Of the
country.
All the trains from the west since
last night are at the depot. The pas
sengers are being entertained at the
Castaneda at the expense Of the Santa
Fe. 1t is uncertain when trains will
be moving again, but 1t is hoped the
passage of temporary bridge may
be made tonight. Seven bridges be-
tween here and Ration are damaged,
but none is washed out except the one
over the arroya.
