ATTACK ON SOCIALISTS
Samuel Gompers Hurls Epithets a
Their Organization.

Samuel Gompers of the American fed
Grafton of Labor, bitterly criticises the
socialists in an editorial in the Amer
lean Federationist, the organ of the
federation.
'"The hodge-podge of socialistic
rant" ''fanatical," ''unscrupulous,"
''frothy and fiery propaganda" are
some of the epithets the venerable
head of the trade union organization
uses.
The editorial was called forth by
caustic attacks by the socialists on the
federation, and on Gompers particu-
larly, as a result of the Mcnamara
confessions of dynamiting outrages.
The article is believed to be the open
ing gun in fight by the 'conserva-
tive" branch of the labor organization
upon the radical, direct action" prop
agandists, among whom are numbered
many of the most prominent socialists
of the country.

Disastrous DeIuge in Pennsyl-
vania and West Virginia.
MANY MINERS CAUGHT;
DROWNED LIKE RATS
Great Floods Sweep Down Upon Many
Towns, Working Terrible De-
struction-Scenes of Woe
and DesoIation.

With the streams pouring water into
inundated valleys, western Pennsylva'
mia is fighting a flood which already
has cost scores of lives. The total
number of dead SO far reported is six
ty-three.
The places and the number reported
to have been drowned at each is as
follows
Uniontown, Pa, fourteen; Smock,
Pa, in the Redstone valley, fourteen;
Grindstone, Pa. fourteen miners miss
ing and reported drowned; Linn, Pa,
two miners drowned; Wheeling, W..
Va, three drowned; LemOnt, Pa, four
miners reported drowned Fleetwood,
Pa, H. l.. King, wife and child drown
ed; New Mattinsville, six reported
drowned; MonOgah, w. ", one drown
ed; Fairmont, w Va, two drowned.
In some of the mines there is no
hope that any of the men caught are
alive. 1t will take months to pump
the water out of the lower levels.
Railroad tracks have been washed
out and telegraph and telephone lines
are down.
Dunbar, Pa, nine miles west Of Un-
iontoWn, is the center of the region of
desOlatiCn. The flood waters swept
away homes and buildings, besides do
ing damage to mines, furnaces and
coke plants.
Among the buildings caught IN the
SwirIing current were the city hall, a
two-story frame building on Railroad
street; J. P. Kelly's jewelry store;
Sam Joseph's restaurant and A. w.
Boyer's big grocery and warehouse.
The Neiman drug company suffered
loss of $4,000 to stock. A score Of
other business places met heavy loss
es, which have not been estimated.
All the machinery of the A. V. Pur-
nell quarries was carried away and
lodged back of the First National bank
building on Connellsville street, where
debris was piled twenty feet high
above the trolley tracks.
At Evans station, three miles north
OF Uniontown, Pa, cloudburst sent
waters raging into the mouth of the
Superba No. mine. Fourteen men
were drowned like rats in trap, and
thirty-seven others had miraculous
escapes from a similar fate.
A few miles away at Lemont mine
No. 2, three other men are reported to
have been drowned in like fashion.
Up in the Redstone valley near to
Brownsville, Pa, it is reported that at
least ten miners were caught while at
work by flood waters entering the
mines and drowned.
For a radius of 100 miles around
Pittsburg there are scenes of desola-
ton. Wrecked buildings are visible
everywhere, while streets are strewn
with debris. In some places the de-
bris is piled twenty feet high.
Officials of the railroads at Union
town and Greensburg assert that when
transportation and wire communica-
ton are restored throughout the coun-
ty it is likely the list of dead will be
increased.

Why Steel In Concrete Won't Rust.
In these days of steel and concrete
construction work on skyscraper build
ings, structural engineers are fire.
quently asked what the fate OF the
buildings will be when the steel
beams have rusted away. The best
answer to that Is found In the report
Of the surveyor Of st. Paul's cathed-
raj, London, who recently caused an
opening to be made In the concrete OF
the dome in order that the condition
of the great chain which binds It at
It's base might be disclosed.
This chain has been imbedded IN
concrete for more than 200 years, and
1t was found to be as bright and per.
feet as when new The reason why
steel encased In concrete is prevented
from rusting is that the oxide OF iron
chemically combines with the cement.
