An Awful Horror.
Hiiaroiiai, Aug 3.—A tidal wave,
estimated to have been about five
miles in length, swept in from the sea
last .Sunday and inundated the coast
of Hayehau, In the northeast part of
the province of Kiang-Su.
Many villages were destroyed and
it is estimated tiiat at leant 4,000 peo
ple were drowned. The rice Helds
wers submerged and almost totally
destroyed, with the lesult that a
famine is feared in that district dur
ing the coming autumn.
Ilaichau is situated opposite Yu
Cnau island, on the coast of the Kiang
Nu province, which is on the Whang
llai or Yellow sea. The surface is
most level, which may account for the
grrat lose of life. Kiang Su is one of
the most fertile provinces of the em
pire end esports more silk than any
other part of China. The Yank Tse
Kiang enters China through tills prov
ince, the principal city of which is
Nan Kinir.
ENGINEER RESPONSIBLE.
of tha HI gn ml Light th« Uauae
of th« Atlantic City Collision.
Ati.antic Citv, N J., Aug. 3.—There
Is now little question that the respon
sibility for the collision near here
Thursday night, in which forty-four
excursionists were killed and forty
three others injured, rests U|K>n the
deud engineer, hid ward Farr. There
is no dispute that tha signal to
come ahead was given to the West
Jersey excursion train, and if so,
the danger signal must necessarily
have been given to the Reading track
bv an automatic arrangement. The
signals then become locked and can
not be released until both traius have
cleared the point. Before the signals
are manipulated the red signal is con
stantly displayed to both tracks, indi
cating to all engineers that they must
slow up on approaching the crossing.
There is strong evidence that Farr did
not slow up and could not do so In
time when he saw the West train ap
proaching. It is said that he had
been laid off for two weeks not long
ago for not making good time, and it
is supposed that he was trying to
make m for this by running at a high
rate of speed.
STRIKE RENEWED.

Ci.bvki.ani>, Ohio, Aug. 3.—All of

of new men were employed after the
first strike was declared off.
During the excitement and con
fusion John Prince, a union man em
ployed in the Foreat City foundry, was

and will probably die.
Three companies of militia fend a

W. I- reek Declare* That Wilton Wu
Nominated on an t'nilentamllnK.
Atlanta, Ua., Aug. 3 — VV. 1* Peek,
who ran for governor on the Populist
ticket in 189- and headed the Georgia
delegation at 8t. Louis. sent the fol
lowing to the Atlanta Journal to-day:
ConvKits, Ga., Aug. 1, lit* To the
Atlanta Journal: ft was uu . .-rstood
with the Democrats that If the Popu
lists would nominate Mr. Kryan for
President and a Southern Populist for
Vice President, that Mr. Sewail would
retire from the race; or, in other
words that he (Mr Sewail) would be
taken down and that our candidate
for Vice President would be placed on
the ticket with Mr Kryan With
this understanding Mr. Watson was
unanimously nominated Every state in
the Union supported him except South
Carolin and it was not repr. sen ted.
This was the broHd ground on which
the Democrats and Populists met.
Having been deceived by promises we
made it a certainty on our r>'rt and
reversed the order of busim-ss and
nominated the vice president Urst.
Senator Jones, chairman of the na
tional Democratic committee, was
ttiere, t- 'ether with many pr ml non t
Democrats from many parts of the
United States, urging this course for
the success of financial reform.
"We did not indorse Mr. Kryan, but
made our platform und nominated
him then for president by over a two
thirds vote. Mr. Watson’s nomina
tion wus greeted with as long ami
loud outbursts of enthusiasm as was
Mr Kryan'*, and I beg leavs to sa.v
now that ther* is but one course
to pursue if good faith is to
govern this union of silvei forces,
vis: Watson electors must be
put up by the Democratic party from
IU ilUm lit. lb WJMIMJ Uf a
lack of fidelity to ask or do otherwise.
In the Fouth, yea. in (ieogia, it would
be an unpardonable sin and unfaith
fulness on the part of the Democratic
party and the people will hold them
responsible for the result."

The Prohibition Candidate.
BlV timoiik, Md., July 3o.—Joshua
Levering of this city was last evening
officially notified of his nomination
for the Presidency of the United
Btates by the Prohibition party. Prior
to the notification, tile Maryland Pro
hibitionists held their state conven
tion and nominated electors in the
various Maryland districts. They also
paraded the streets of the city with
banners and music, the line of march
terminal ing at the Lyceum theater,
where the notification meeting was
held.'
O. W (Stewart of Illinois, as chair
man of the committee on notification,
delivered the address informing Lev
ering of his nomination. The latter
read from manuscript his letter of ac
ceptance, which is, in part, as follows:
"Much an honor is worthy the am
bition of any citizen of this great na
tion, but to my mind it is to be doubly
appreciated when tendered by the
only political party which has had the
eourage to stand openly for the pro
tection of the home, the womanhood
and the children of our country
agalnat the terrible ravages and de
struction of the legalized liquor traffic.
The Prohibition party, conscloua of
the Integrity of its motives and pur
poses, and firm In its belief that the
question of a moral character should
take precedence over those purely
economics!, has stood firm for a score
or more of years against all attnexs
of ridicule, misrepresentation and
abuse made agulust it; increasing its
numbers and gaining the esteem and
Confidence of those who are not yet
willing to be enrolled under the ban
ner of 'Protection to the Home.’
“During nil the years it has steadily
pursued its way in educating tlie'peo
ple to the constantly increasing en
croachment of the liquor trufHc,
knowing how it is undermining our
fiolitical and social life and interfer
ng with the free expression of the
will of the people it the ballot box,
controlling to a large extent the legis
lative bodies of the country, adding
heavily to the burdens of the already
overburdened taxpayers, and, above
all, bringing suffering, sorrow, pov
erty and death to many of our fellow
citizens.
"The platform adopted by the con
vention meets my hearty approval,
and, though based on the single issue,
Is, in reality, sufficiently broad to
allow all to stand on it who are op
posed to the saloon and its consequent
evils, regardless of their views on any
public questions of the day.
‘I do not underestimate the fact
that there are other questions of
f'rave importance over which the pub
ic mind is seriously agitated, and
which are being pressed for speedy
settlement. There Is the question of
a stable and at the same time elastic
eurrency, equal to the demands of
business for every section of the coun
try, and yet every dollar of which
should be of equal value and the whole
based on a standard equal to the best
interest in the world. The United
Status cannot afford, without dishonor,
to have money bearing its stamp in
ferior to that of any other country on
the globe.
“Again, a proper adjustment of the
tariff' so that labor can have Us iust
protection withoi'i at the same time
?'iving undue pro’eclion to the m-inu
acturing interest at the expense of
the great consuming portion of our
people, is of profound importance and
demands early solution.”
Prior to the notification meeting,
Mr. Levering, in an interview, said:
“I do not see any necessity for the
sound money Democrats who do not
wish to vote for McKinley to nominate
a third ticket Let them vote the
Prohibition ticket. We shall have
electoral tickets in every state and
those Democrats and others who can
not conscientiously vote for either
Bryan or McKinley can vote for our
ticket. My views on the money ques
tion and on Die tariff question are also
in accord with the views of these peo
ple in general and are decidedly
definite. ”

New York, July 30 — Frederick 8.
Gibbs, national Republican commit
teeman from this state, was one of
tiie few favored guests at a meeting
of the Kastern managers with Na
tional Ih&trman Hanna to-day.
Whether Mr, Hanna looked upon Mr.
Gibba as a personal representative of
Mr. Platt or not, the fact Is patent
that Mr. Gibbs does represent that
taction of the Republican party ia
New York. Mr. Hanna said: “Mr.
Platt was not invited to the meeting
simply because he la not a member of
the committee Mr. Gibbs, the New
York state national commitlecmun,
was invited by me to attend so that
tie rnay be kept in touch with the
plsns that may be formulated Mr.
Gibbs is New York's national commit
teeman, and is responsible in a large
measure, by virtue of bis position, for
the result in this state, j feel confi
dent that the Republican party In
New York state will work harmoni
ously for Mr. McKinley’s election "
John Wanatnaker of Philadelphia,
ex-President Harrison and Mr. ilanna
met at the Fifth Avenue hotel last
night. Mr. Hanna declined to go in
to details as to the questions discussed
bv the trio, but said: “Mr. Harrison
will give us all tne assistance we may
require of him. ”
The most Important question to be
discussed will be us to the lines upon
which the campaign will be con
ducted. Frank 8. Withcrbee and a
delegation representing the American
Protective League will argue in favor
of making the fight upon the tariff
1 in... ..,1.11.. U.I.III. ll’ l>, ...II.
others of the financial and corpora
tion world wilt ask that the tinsneial
question be kept uppermost. It is en
tirely probable that Mr. Hanna’s ad
vice to the committee will be for
working on both these platforms aa
closely bound to each other. Mr.
Hanna said to-uay: “The financial J
and tariff questions cannot, in my ^
judgment, be divorced. Our financial
depression or prosperity is duo in the
greatest measure to our tariff condi
tion*. Mr. McKinley Shares this view
with me ”
In carrying out this view Mr Hanna
will suggest that ttie Tan If league
prosecute the tight vigorously on its
own lines, and that those interested
in the financial question do similar
work, the national committee giving
assistance. It is planned that an im
mense amount of literature will be
distributed.
Mr. Quay was in consultation with
Mr. Hanna for about an hour, but
neither would say what the especial
subject of their consultation was.
The nominee for vice president,
Garrett A. Hobart, arrived subse
quently and was closeted with Mr.
Hanna for some time. At the con
clusion of the interview Mr Hobart
said: "I have told Mr. llanna that 1
intend staying In New Jersey during
the campaign, frequently coming over
to New York headquarters. I had
plenty of experience in campaign
work a* a national committeemail and
Mr. Hanna thinks I can assist in New
York headquarters.”
