former and three in the latter. Several
states are understood to have been pre-

at least before anything was sent to the
White House. II Is understood thst
Brisadier General William W. Wother-
spoon will be appointed to the grade Of

since June. 1905 as chief Of the bureau
Of insalar affairs: Colonel G. +. Chase

OVER THIRTY DIE
IN fierce STORM
Canyon Near Mazuma, New, Swept
by Flood.

Reno, New, July 20.-Searching
parties from Lovelock and surround
ing towns are securing the flood
swept canyon and hillsides near Ma
yuma and Seven Troughs in Hum
boldt county, Nevada, for bodies of
victims of the catastrophe which
washed out the two mining camps
yesterday.
Late advices from the scene OF the
disaster state that more than a
score Of bodies have been recovered
and 1t is believed the death list will
number thirty or more.
At Seven Troughs no loss Of life
has been reported, but the, town
practically was wiped out. At Ma
yuma a solid wall Of water fifteen
feet high swept down the narrow
canyon without warning. 1t carried
everything before it. Just how
many victims were swept to their
death probably will not be learned
until tonight when the searching
parties return.
