LONDON , July 0. ( New York World Ca
blegram Special Telegram. ) U Is well wlthlr
bounds ( o cay that the profound lack ol
tallh In their chances at thb general flection
which , within my knowledge , was felt bj
most ot the liberal leaders at the time ol
their defeat In Parliament , and , Indeed , foi
tnonth before , has slven place today to c
really confident bellet that they will returr
with a majority , perhaps a considerable one
Lord Salisbury was never a tactful politician
but un bas crowded so many polltlca
blunders Into these last ten days that r.i
unprejudiced outside observer can only recal
ferf. one chapter In history to equal them thi
fatuous course of Louis XVI. before tin
P revolution. He has already committed thi
t conservative party to a most rcactlonar ;
policy. While angering stiff-necked tor ;
supporters by an undue surrender to Cham
bcrlaln's demands for place , he has antago
nlzcd the English love for fair play by hli
wholly gratuitous Insult to Campbell Banner
man and disgusted English regard for truth
fulness by n very equivocal excuse for thi
unKentlemanly act.
OPPOSED TO LIQUOR REFORMS ,
lie has , with brutal frankness , practical ! ;
declared himself against any effort to re
form the present liquor license laws , agalns
which the whole moral force of the natlo
la aroused , and together with other hanll :
less crucial and cynical avowals of dlsre
, gard Jor an obvious popular sentiment , ha
finally made his House of Lords throw ou
the bill passed In the Commons , the entlr
Justice of which cannot possibly be denied
He has thus consolidated Irish sentlmen
and L'ngllsh sentiment which favors Justlc
to Ireland , and has given an object lesso
v-
- Jhan which nothing could be utronger to th
liberal crusade against the Lords.
Lord Hosebery , Sir William Harcourt an
4 John Morley within these last forty-clgli
hours have preached boldly and cxultantl
'the extremist radical program for abolltio
cf the , veto power of the Lords , for a loci
veto of the" liquor traffic , and for homo rul
for Ireland. The liberal leaders have agal
the courage of their convictions , which ha
been rather to be doubted since Gladstone'
.wlthdnwal . , and the party seems once agal
united and enthusiastic.
FAVORS THB ORANGEMEN.
The defeat of the Irish municipal franchii
bill by the Ixirds yesterday , by a unanlmoi
vote of the tory maorlty ] ( seems really the ai
of madmen. H passed the Commons at th
session by sixty-two majority , while the goi
eminent party majority was below ten ,
gave Irish municipalities exactly what Eni
llsh have had for sixty years. The only po
slble , although outrageous , excuse for Its di
teat Is that In Ulster existing restrlctc
. to keep al
" franchise enables the Orangemen
r" Bolute control of the corporation , anil of a
municipal offices In Belfast , Derry nnd so1
oral other smaller towns , while In the othi
three provinces It gives the Orangemen repr
dentation In municipal bodies entirely dlspr
j portlonato to tholr number. In towns who
k Orangemen are paramount no Catholics a :
ever employed by the corporation In ar
h but laboring work , and in Derry , where the
are 18,000 Catholics against 14,000 Protestant
the only municipal capacity In , which Cath
lies are employed Is as scavengers.
.Lord Cadogan , the new viceroy for Irelan
led In the attack on the bill and thus ga'
Ireland notice of what to expect from Lo
Salisbury's rule.
CHAMBERLAIN ALSO AGGRESSIVE.
Meanwhile Mr. Chamberlain , In tl
Commons , has already begun li
fight with Balfour for the lea
ershlp by Intervening on every quest ! )
that has arisen , In conspicuous disregard
Custom , which leaves to the leader of tl
house the solo right ot defining the gover
ment's policy. The unionist coalmen th
already shawg signs of speedy dlilntegratlo
m\
At liberal headquarters the officials say t
mi i night they are amazed at the triumphant to
ot reports they are now receiving fro
& country party managers.
It Is a curious and Interesting fact to us
America' that from the moment Parllamc
is dissolved on Monday and the general cle
tton technically begins , the leaden of tl
two parties. Lord Roscbery and Lord Sail
bury , will be absolutely debarred from takli
ny part In the contest , either by speec
writing or work. They suffer this dlsquatl
cation , In common with all peers , under
standing order passed many years a ;
by the House ot Commons , declaring It u
constitutional and a breach ot the prlvlleg
ot the House ot Commons for any peer
participate In the work of a general electlc
At the tlmo this resolution was adopted t
Interference of peers In their landlord c
pacltylth parliamentary elections h
reached a scandalous pitch , and the condu
ot some ot them had become so Indefcnsll
that the House ot Lords was compelled
force of public opinion to accept this deer
ot the Commons , although U really has
force in law.
1 NITRATE NORTH'S CAMPAIGN.
In spite of the seriousness of the Issues , i
ready some humors .ot the campaign ha
arisen. Tom Ochtltree's friend , Colonel .Nor !
is contesting a seat with Herbert Gladsto
anil made a speech last night so extraordlna
In its offenses against grammar and unlq
In style that all England is laughing at t
reports published today. He said :
"The one pleasure that I ha\e In life Is
be born a Yarkihlreman ; the other Is to re
about Yorkshire. If I am to be a foot ba
well , I am shoving behind them In Londt
the same at cricket. Ot course there ls
good many hero knows the Interest I take
cricket. A good many here knows I cot
play eoino ot them even ax my age now. "
Then be told a story of a fight he once ti
at a radical meeting. "There was one 1
man who was knocking them down , right a
left , until the show stopped to see
two have a EO. lie came tor tue , and
edged him and just gave him one. Well ,
lat man went right over the table. That
Lopped the meeting. "
In North Somerset yesterday Mr. Evan
.lewellyn , unionist candidate , who was of-
enslvely Interrupted by one of the audience ,
ushed from the platform nnd gave the of-
cnder a sound thrashing. The amenities ot
olltlcal campaigns hero could give points
ven to our Bowery.
The acceptance of a baronetcy by Naylor
.cyland , apparently as a reward for aban-
onlng the conservative party , will probably
efeat him In Southport , where he Is opposing
Jeorge Curzon. Their two American wives ,
lowever , will take active part In the contest.
PRAISE FOR AMERICAN ACTORS.
Augustln Daly's revival of "Two Gentle
men of Verona" this week , has brought
ilm astonishing tributes from the London
) rcss. The Times calls Ada Rehan the
"most finished Shakespcrlan actress of our
Ime , " and Clement Scott , the best known
of English critics , actually finds courage
o say that American actors speak better
English than English actors. Discussing
Daly's company , he says In the Telegraph :
'The gift to sensitive English ars was the
rare gift of elocution. There was scarcely
an outlaw ot the lowest grade who could
not speak verse better than the majority ot
English actors , for the good reason that
they have all been taught to speak , whereas
every young English actor thinks that it
will all come to him by Inspiration. It de-
Ightcd the ear , tortured with the false
qualities ot English dramatic art. "
Lolo Fuller , that other American artist of
another quality , has been repeating In Bir
mingham and Edlnburg for the past fort
night her successes In London and Paris.
The London critics will have nothing ol
M. B. Curtis In "Samuel of Posen , " and are
unanimous In denouncing that play.
Since the great flro In Paris last week
the municipality is busily at work reformIng -
Ing their fire department and will send a
committee to New York to study our system ,
It appears there are eleven steamers In all
Paris. BALLARD SMITH.
ui * roit T M. nousi : OF LOUUS
Mnrquls ot Salisbury Itop'loi to Lord Ilosc-
bcrj'a Kecont .Stricture * .
LONDON , July 6. The marquis of Sails ,
bury In the House of Lords today replied t :
the speech which Lord Rosebery rccentlj
delivered before the Eighty club , In which
ho attacked the House of Lords. The premlei
traversed Lord Rosebery's statement that the
House of Lords had legislative preponderance
On the contrary , ho asserted , the House ol
Lords had no share In the voting by whlct
governments were displaced , nor In the pro.
vision ot fitness for the public service.
Continuing , the marquis of Salisbury asket
what the lords had done to Induce Lord Rose ,
bcry to submit a proposal which had been Ir
Parliament for twenty years ; the House o
Lords merely rejected the evicted tenanti
bill , which he aiser'ed wa ; Impracticable In thi
dliapo presented. To such bills the lords op
posed continued resistance. ( Cheers. ) Theii
real crime was the rejection of home rule
which was the question upon which tin
electorate was now asked to decide. If hcmi
rule had been passed , the marquis also said
it would have been Irrevocable and the coun
try has been saved from this situation by tin
so-called "manacles" the lords.
In conclusion the marquis ot Salisbury ex
pressed the opinion that the House of Lord !
deserved the thanks of the country for clear
ing the field ot sterile and angry conflicts am
for bringing about the consideration of measures
uros to ameliorate the social troubles ot tin
people.
Lord Rosebery replied that the leglslatlv
preponderance of the House of Lords excltei
opposition , Inasmuch as 500 peers wore
fixed barrier for the purpose of retardln
liberal measures. The House of Commons
ho added , changed ; but the House of Lord
never ctnnged. Whatever the result of th
elections , so far as the House of Lords wa
concerned , It remained the same. In con
elusion the ex-premier said that It the con
servatlve measures were such as to raise th
social lite of the people without Injustice tether t
other classes , he promised them the suppoi
of the liberals. The house then adjourned.

HAVANA , July 0. General Anderlus , th
commander of the troops here , reviewed fou
companies of the battalion of America toda
and the troops left for the province of Sant
Clara. It Is stated on good authority tha
there Is absolutely no foundation for th
story published In the United States tha
Captain General Slartlnez do Campos woul
advise the Spanish government to abando
the task of attempting to put down the Ir
surrectlon and leave the Island of Cuba to It
fate. On tbe contrary , the captain genen
Is disposed to lose the last man and spen
the last cent In suppressing the revolution.
The report of the death ot Amador Guerr
Is confirmed. Aramburo , the Insurgen
leader who recently surrendered to the Span
Ish authorities at Manzantllo , escaped an
ratted another band of Insurgents In th
neighborhood of Trinidad. He was pursue
by the troops and had a fight , In whlc
Aramburo was killed and three of his ban
were \\ounded.
A small band ot Insurgents has appeare
In the district of Santa Domingo , provlnc
of Santa Clara , and Its members have burne
the city hall at Andalulas , after killing tl :
mayor ot that place and four citizens wh
took part In Its defense.

LONDON , July C. The leading hostesses ,
In view of the waning season , the approachIng -
Ing dissolution of Parliament and the fierce
political campaign which will follow , are
dong their utmost to rush their entertain
ments In before election. Every night of the
past week has been crowded with balls , din
ners and parties ot various descriptions and
those who cannot find a night during ; the
next few days are bslng compelled to aban
don tl0 Idea of carrying out their social pro
gram and will , therefore , postpone their pro.
Jected entertainments or glvo them up alto
gether.
This year's Invasion of London by Amerl-
: ans Is the strongest ever known. They are
o be teen at every turn , occupying the besl
partmeuts In all the popular hotels and
risking all places of Interest. The leading
estaurants are packed with them and thej
lalf flll the theaters nightly. Finally the
Americans flock In crowds to the big musl (
halls and enjoy themselves generally In ever )
ivay possible. They are good customer !
verywhcre , free with their money and con <
.ent only with the best of everything. There.
'ore , It need hardly be added' iho Lender
hotel keepers , fitore keepers and 'public ' en.
ertalners are not grumbling at the so-callet
American "Invasion. "
It proof was needed of the presence here 01
a multitude of Americans , It was furnished
by the crowds of patriotic citizens of tin
United States who attended the several In.
depende"ce day celebrations In London or
Thursday last , and , strange to say , tin
screeching of the eagle upon these occasion :
seemed to give the lion a certain degree o
liealthy satisfaction. The Dally News , foi
nstance , commenting yesterday on the ban
quet of the American society at the Holbort
restaurant , said : "The American InJepen
denco day WAS celebrated In LonJon mon
publicly than on previous occasions. This 1
as It should be. The day brings no bitter
ness of memory to the present generation o
Englishmen. But for that day and Its les
sons , our empire might by now be a thing o
ho past. U Is never so fittingly celebrate :
as when Englishmen and American ; meet Ii
honor of It at the same ceremony , or at thi
Eamo social board. "
Then again , during the banquet a cordla
message was received by the Americans fron
the past anil present members of Emanue
college , Cambridge , who were dining li
another part of the building , which cause
Hon. Wayne MacVeagh , the United State
ambassador to Italy , who presided In th
absence of Hon. Thomas P. Bayard , th
United States ! ambassador to the court o
St. James , to remark that blood was thlcke
than water. Not to bo bhlndhand In cour
tcsy , the Americans cent the Emanuel me
a reply , proposing as a. worthy sentiment o
the evening , the memory of John Harvard ,
son of Emanuel college , onJ the father c
liberal learning In the new world.
CHEAT CROWDS OF AMERICANS.
As a further proof cf the presence here o
vast throngs of Americans , It may bo aide
that at the Savoy hotel ono night this weeli
half a dozen famous dinners were In progres ;
Mr. George Gould's party was at ono tabl
and near them was the party of Mr. M. 11
Do Young , proprietor of the San Franclsc
Chronicle. At another table. Mrs. Wlrt Dex
ter of Chicago was entertaining a number o
friends and there were fully twenty mor
persons of more or less prominence at th
various tables In the room.
The registers of Lowes and Gllllg's Amei
lean exchanges show a larger number c
names entered than for years past. Mr. an
Mrs. De Young arrived from Paris a fei
days ago and they are receiving much al
tentlon In society. They have been th
guests of Mrs. John W. Mackay and othe
prominent people. The sixty cases of ai
objects which Mr. De Young purchased 1
France for the California exposition memorl :
museum bavo arrived In London and wl
be shipped to the United States on Wednes
day next by the steamship Cuthera. Th
collection Is one of really marvelous varlet
and value. It Includes rare tapestrle :
Sevres vases , plates , etc. , wonderful Ivorle
of the empire period , Louis XV. and XV
furniture and clocks and other admlrabl
selections from the best collection It !
possible to draw upon In Europe.
There was considerable comment among tli
New Yorkers who attended the receptlo
given on the Fouryi of July by Mrs. Bayan
wife of the United States ambassador , upo
the facfthat Mr. William Waldorf Aster , wl
was among those present , has aged great !
since the death of his wife.
Bret Harte created much amusement i
the reception by displaying great anxiety th ;
the English butler should announce his narr
correctly. The butler announced "Bretl
arte , " whereupon the novelist called ot
"Bret Harte" at the top ot his voice thre
times , and set everybody laughing.
There Is much dissatisfaction at the can
less manner In which the malls are dl :
patcfted to the United States. The Nort
German Lloyd company advertised a steami
to sail last Sunday and notified the postoftti
authorities to that effect. But without gl'
Ing notice to any one or changing the di
vertlsemcnt , the company withdrew tt
steamer entirely , and In consequence tt
malls waited at Southampton for sever
days.

FAVORS THE NICARAGUAN CANAL.
Archibald Ross Colquhoun , the well know
explorer and first governor ot Maeonalan
has lust returned from u seven months' toi
to Nicaragua , where he thoroughly Inspect !
the Nlcaraguan canal route and Centr
American canal. He says :
"From what I have seen of Nicaragua at
In a lengthened visit to the United State
especially the southern states , I am mo
thin ever convinced of ( he Importance to tl
United States ot this project and feel su
that It U only under the auspices ot tl
United Etatei government that the proje
can be carried through as It should be. The
canal In my opinion , will be universally of
greater Importance than the Suez canal and
largely revolutionize the shipping routes ot
the world. For the United Sthtcs the canal
will not only have the effect ot develop
ing the trade of the Pacific slope and south
ern states , but will more especially open up
tli'o ma'gnlflcent lands of the Mississippi at
present lost to the commerce of the world. "
There Is much gossip among agricultural
classes In regard to the future policy of the
government. A great many ot the landed
gentry profess to know that the marquis of
Salisbury will favor an Import duty on for
eign products other than wheat and a number
of Irish lories are using this argument In an
attempt to secure votes.
Mr. Jerome K. Jerome does not seem In
clined to apologize to Mr. Richard Crolter In
regard to a statement made In Jerome's
paper about Slmms. He published Mr.
Croker's letter on the subject which was
the same In wording as the one written to
Mr. Henry Lnbouchcre ami published In
Truth , but he adds : "It 'does not tally
with my Information , and U would bo to the
advantage of the public that the affair should
bo carefully Inquired Into. "
The rumor that Lord Rosebery Is to marry
one of the prince of Wales' daughters Is re
vived this week and It Is said he may re
linquish politics entirely. It Is understood
that the queen would not offer any opposition
to the match. Lord Rosebery continues to
bo her great personal favorite as her be
stowal upon him of the late duke of Hamil
ton's Order of the Th.lstle Indicates. Lord
Roscbery already possesses the Order of the
Garter , and It Is extremely rare for any one
not of royal blood to hold both orders , the
only other Instances on record being the cases
of the earl ot Aberdeen and the duke of
Argyle.
DISCUSSING AMERICAN ATHLETICS.
Commenting on the possibility ot an In
ternational university athletic contest Lady
Colin Campbell Realm says : "The American
unlversltes have nothing like the authority
n athletic matters that ours have. Things
might easily go wrong. The baser kind of
'port ' hangs about the American tracks from
'alstfylng ' a record to poisoning a competitor. "
Reviewing the prospects ot the Cornell
crew at the coming regatta , at Henley , Mr.
\V. B. Woodgate , the expert English oars
man , who has carefully watched the progress
made by all the crews which will compete
, n the race for the grand * challenge cup ,
predicts that the Leander aful New college
crews will be first and second. Mr. Wood-
gate also expresses the oplnlah that the Cor
nell crew will not bo able to hold out after
passing Fawley court against the longer
reach and swing of the English11crews. .
The Pall Mall Gazcttei commenting on the
same subject , thinks that tfic Cornell men
have been doing the reverse of ! Improvement
during the past week. Jt has been dis
covered , the Pall Mall Gazette adds , that
stateness Is a thing to bo guarded against as
much as Insufficient preparatlo'n.
Mr. D. II. McLean , an did' oarsman of
Eton and Oxford experience , who has been
present at the Henley regattas of twenty
years past , thinks that the Conie'.l men are
undoubtedly a very fine crew and the best
the United States could produce as they
have carried everything bpJo're them In
America. Ho adds : "They are-.slrnply an
unknown quantity In the 'competition foi
the grand challenge cup , and if they win we
must reconsider our most cherished Ideas
of rowing. " fc
Mr. McLean also expresses the opinion
that the Canadians , with 'tho crew of the
Argonaut Rowing club of Toronto , consistIng -
Ing of C. H. Munz , F. H. Thompson , E. A ,
Thompson and R. A. Munz , have a beautiful
crew wltSi which to compete for the stew

are a speedy lot of mem
WEEK AT THE BJG THEATERS.
The cooler weather of the past week has
had a favorable effect upon the attendance
at the theaters. Daly's came In for i
fair share ot patronage , Including several
members of the royal .family. The pro.
ductlon of "Two Gentlemen of Verona" ha :
excited much diverse criticism. There ha :
been praise for the manner In which It I :
mounted and objection . - to tlie manner Ir
which Mr. Daly Interpolated music It
Shakespeare's text. Ada Reban and Jamei
Lewis have been highly commended by tin
critics.
M. B. Curtis gave a trial matlnco o :
"Samuel o1 Poeen" on Thursday last at tin
Gaiety theater. The result Is that thi
newspapers have united In a chorus of con
demnatlon and express wonder at the fac
that "Samuel o' Posen" was successful li
the United States. , '
Mrs. Patrick Campbell returned to thi
cast of "Fedora" yesterday and Bcerbohm Trei
Is engaged In securing a cast for "Trilby. "
U transpired during the week that Di
Maurler took as his model for Little Blllei
the son of a cabinet maker at Hampstead
who has since adopted the stage as a pro
fesslon. Mr. Tree has engaged him ti
play that character It ) the approaching pro
ductlon of "Trilby. "
The princess ot Wales has always shown i
great fondness for adventure , like riding li
Buffalo Bill's stage coach and shooting a

CARACAS , Venezuela , July 6. ( Now York
World Cablegram Special Telegram. ) The
activity of the political agents of ox-Presi
dent Blanco makes tt evident that he Is In the
field to succeed President Crcspo. His en
ergy and persistence warrant tbe Inference
that ho will be a strong candidate. Although
he Is not popular , ho has plenty of money to
spend , and that will command support. Ills
rule was tyrannical and hta assumption of
power bordered on the ludicrous. At ono
tlmo ho had himself elected a senator from
so many different states that ho constituted
lalf of the senate , while at the same tlmo
he was governor of several states and presi
dent of the republic. He erected statues to
himself In all the leading towns. His egotism
bordered on Insanity. His absorbing ambi
tion Ms to rule all the northern part of South
America. An opponent says his plan will be
to Induce ambitious people to Join their for
tunes with him In a wild scheme of consoli
dating Venezuela , Colombia , Ecuador and
Peru Into a grand Imperial confederation with
hhnself at the head , his ultimate design be
ing probably to declare himself emperor ,
guaranteeing parliamentary government tc
the country. Homo rule will bo'a part ol
his program.
It Is not unlikely his mania has taken this
turn , as his ambition Is not limited to Vene
zuela. Although ho has amassed $25,000,000
here , he Is still unsatisfied. There is nc
limit to his ambition. He has married hi !
daughter Into ducal families In France. One
daughter married the young Duke de Morny ,
the son of the halt brother of Napoleon. Bui
Blanco cannot corrupt the leaders of tlu
young Venezuelan party , which stands foi
Independence , ejection of the English fron
the soil of the country , and reforms In the
national Institutions. Families descended
from noble families of Spain are giving theli
support to the liberal cause , especially thi
younger members. What Blanco's agent )
are doing In Colombia and Ecuador Is only i
matter of rumor. H Is his policy to buy or
his opponents , now that no ono cares for hli
threats' . His rule drove hundreds of thi
leading politicians Into exile , some dying Ir
poverty In the United States , Mexico am
Franco. Since he left here for France hi
has cherished the Idea of returning , am
since the death ot President Nunex of Colom
bla schemes of Imperial magnitude have beei
floating In his brain. He Is an able , cour
ageous and daring man with Insatiable ambl
tlon.

The bodies of Key. G. W. Duncan , his wlfs
and daughter , George Nevins , Norma Novlns
and the Wright girl were recovered , but the
others have not been found. A slashing rain ,
preceded by a stunning wind , set In at 9
o'clock last night. When the wind ceased the
rain Increased Intensely , until at 10 o'clock
the water seemed to como down In a continu
ous stream.
At 10:15 : four feet of water was on the
street. In fifteen minutes moro buildings
could no longer stand the strain and began
to careen and dissolve In the waters. Vivid
flashes of lightning pierced the downpour ,
which came like the falls of Niagara. Houses
wore smashed and In the water were hun
dreds of men , womet ) and children. It was
like a shipwreck In the ocean. Cries or ter
ror and shouts for help from struggling peopla
clinging to pieces of timber made the scene
ono that baflled Intelligent effort to save the
helpless , The strong current rushing down
the ravine or valley carried many to higher
land and places of safety.
NOT A HOUSE REMAINED.
When the torrent had to a degree subsided
the men who had seen 'to ' their own families
turned their attention- others , and by 3
o'clock In the morning the worst was over.
These who had escaped the sweep of the
devastation stood shivering , without clothing
or without opportunity to dry themselves.
When the day dawned there was nothing
of the homes In the town ; there was no shel
ter , no food , no clothing. As soon as the
destroyed telegraphic communication was re
stored Mayor I ) . P. Evans telegraphed to
this city for aid. Tonight the Inhabitants ot
Wlnona are scattered among farm houses or
have gone to neighboring towns.
In all thirty buildings were destroyed.
Among them were : A. Carter Lumber com
pany's building , loss $2,000 ; Mrs. A. 0. Scranton -
ton , millinery , building , loss $1,500 ; J. J.
Dowcn , three buildings , loss $2,000 ; Church
& Kissel , lumber , loss $1JOO [ ; Darr hotel ,
I'ctty's house and Sill's house were all carried
away. The following Individuals lost houses :
Tom McCord , 1)111 Howell , George Jordan ,
Wilson Randolph , John Norrls , George Hayden -
den , four houses ; James Hensley , Jack Gil
bert , Tom Gallbralth , Lloyd Wright , GranJall
loberts , George Karris , Joseph Miller , Rev.
G. W. Duncan , D. W. Van and Dan Holmes.
The total loss Is not less than $ SO,000.
Rev. G. W. Duncan , who lost his life , wa
pastor of the Wlnona circuit , and was but
recently ordained. He was formerly an en
gineer on the Iron Mountain railroad. The
bodies ot Miss Muinle Duncan and Mrs. Craw
ford were found at 4 o'clock thU morning.
The others were recovered long after day
break. Some had floated three miles down
Plko creek toward the northeast and In the
direction of Current river. At places th
water was twelve feet deep In Wlnona.
It Is now known that Dlrch Tree , eight
miles west of Wlnona , had Its greatest storm
at the same hour last night. No lives were
lost there , however , but Cordcz & Fisher ,
lumber dealers , lost $2,000 by the deitructlon
of their buildings. Other buildings were
slightly damaged there.
PROSPEROUS LUMIJER CAMP.
Wlnona , In point of population and bust-
ness , was the most Important town In Shan
non county. Surrounding It arc the finest
of Uio great pine trees of Shannon county.
To the north eight miles the Current river
flows northeast and then bends to the south
east , touching the Current River branch of.
the Memphli railroad at Chlcopcc , a dozen
miles east of Wlnona , Northeast and south
west ot the town arc hills. The railroad
follows a valley cast and west and a deep
ravlna goes out northwest toward the river.
Along the sides of this ravine or valley
were clustered houses , occupied by the fam
ilies of the men who had been employed In
the Ozark Lumber company * ! sawmill.
When the clouds burst on the bills the
water rushed down this ravine , carrying all
before It. The railway was on a slight grade ,
but the track was torn up and reildenco
houses and business buildings were swept
along wllli it Into the river. Church & Kis
sel had the lareett general store , and the
Missouri Land company had ono nthor buildIng -
Ing near the railroad. Doth suffered from
the rush of water. Wlnona , at the last town
census , had COS people. Eight mllca west
ot Wlnona was situated Dlrch Tree , next In
sire In the county , with 525 Inhabitants. It
had similar lumber Interests and was a thriv
ing place. On the morning of July 4 tha
town was visited by a downpour that wa
almost equal to a cloudburst. Great prepara
tions had been made for a celebration , and
a mammoth dinner \vas spread under tha
trees , The storm swept everything away
and many had narrow escapes from drown
ing. Again lute In the evening came another
flood , a visitation that nay moat disastrous
