LONDON, .Inly 0.—Km pi-mi- William was welcomed to I'jitgland Saturday with mu-Ii greeting as no foreigner ever before P'CRIVIM! on British soil. The kaiser reached I'ort Victoria oil the imperial yacht llohenzollerii shortly after noon, where squadron of English battle ships thundered him a welcome, while 011 the pier were his uncles, Albert Edward, prince of Wales, and the dukes of Connuughtnnd Edinburgh, and his cousin, Albert Victor, of Wales, attended by a numerous escort of high dignitaries of state and the members of the German embassy. As a matter of reciprocal courtesy and royal etiquette the German visitor wore the uniform of an English admiral, while the prince of Wales was attired in the uniform of an officer of tlio Prussian guards. The emperor kissed his uncle when they met on the deck of the Nohenzollern and embraced him as if he loved iiiin dearly. lie also kissed the duke of Connaught, only shook bunds rather coldly with Albert Victor andtliedukeof Edinburgh,wliilelie was very warm in his greetings to Count
Ilatzfeldt. the German ambassador, and the other members of the embassy. Tlio. German empresB awaited her En glish relatives in the saloon of theyacht, The prince of Wales kissed her hand and then her cheek. But the others of his suite only ventured the former cer emonial. There was lunch on the yacht, and then a special train conveyed the distinguished party to Wind' sor.
The entire town was gay with bnntr ing and Gorman and English Hags, and half the buildings were covered with mottoes expressive of good wishes to the future bride and groom, us well as of welcome to the illustrious guests. Soldiers guarded the castle and lined the streets and there was a continual clatter of horses' hoofs upon the pavement, as mounted messengers dashed hither and tliithor, or squads of cavalry wheeled into their places. The princess of Wales with her daughters, Victoria and Maud, the Princess Christian and her daughters, Prince Aribert, the lianeee of the elder, and Princess Beatrice were on the rail road platform when the visitors arrived.
The pageant that proceeded to the castle was interesting, although not particularly imposing. The emperor occupied the first carriage with his three uncles. It was drawn by sixwhite 'horses, ridden by postilions. The next carriage, in which were the empress, the princess of Wales and the Princesses Victoria and Maud, only had four horses, and the one behind that occupied by Prince Albert Victor, his granduncle, the duke of Cambridge, and two of the emperor's stall' were drawn by two steeds. There were six more carriages in all and the English royalties were distributed, so far as they held out, in these, among the royal visitors' suite. The German emperor looked bronzed and strong, and lie seemed pleased at the cheers that greeted liim He continually raised his hand to his hat. whilo the prince of Wales paid no attention to the demonstration.
Upon the procession halting at the Guildhall the town clerk read an ad dress of welcome to the most favored home of the rulers of Great Britain The address expressed the trust that the alliance between the iinperi.il and royal families ivould guarantee a lasting friendship be twecn kindred peoples and conduce to the maintenance of the peace of En rope and the general advancement of civilization. The address further dilated upon the emperor's social reforms. The mayor, stepping forward, then made a short effusive speech, to which the emperor made a laconic reply.
Amid rolling volleys of cheers and salvos of artillery the procession en tered the castle grounds. As the. carriages reached the quadrangle the band of the Scots guards played the national anthem. The emperor's carriage stopped beneath the portico of the Waterloo door. On alighting the emperor entered the hall, preceded by the lord chamberlain. The queen met liim at the threshold and affectionately embraced him. All the royalties followed tjie emperor and the door was closed even ijn the favored few who had been prlv ileged to see thus far. Some minutes afterward the emperor reappeared in the quadrangle, iiecompauied by the prince of AVales, the duke of Edin burgh, the duke of Cambridge nnd proceeded as usual to inspect the troops. He shook hands and chatted with the officers and watched the men defile out of the gates, and then retired to his apartments. After a short rest the emperor and em press dined with the queen. Other roy alists wore present, but it was a purely family dinner.
Later the emperor held a semi-official reception, at which Count vou flatz feldt, the German ambassador, Lord Salisbury, the prince of l'loss, Count Mctternich, Lord Stanhope and others, all of whom,wore resplendent in levee dress or uniforms decorated with orders.
The kaiser, prince of Wales and other members of tiie royal family in spected the Life and the Scots guards at Windsor Sunday, and attended Di vine worship with the troops. In tlio afternoon the emperor and empress and the prince and princess of Wales drove to Cumberland lodge to visit Prince and Princess Christian, returning in time for the family dinner party. The day con clvded with a sacred concert in St. George's hall.

A HOKHOWri'I. HOUUTU.
Cn.Mii.Ksrox, W. Va., July G.—At least thirteen persons were killed, four fatally injured and nearly sixty injured in a less degree in an accident on tho Kanuwka Michigan railroad at 8 o'clock Saturday morning, at a point 8 miles west of here. The passenger train for Columbus left here with two oarlouds of excursionists, among them members of the Order of United American Mechanics, who were going to Poca. The wreck "occurred on a high trestle. The sleepers on the structure had caught fire during the night and burned so that the rails spread under the train. The engine and baggage and mail cars passed over safely, but the two coaches were thrown from the track. After running some 40 feet on the sleepers the forward car toppled to the left, tho rear one to the right. The forward car turned completely over, landing right side up. The other fell 20 feet, turning upside down, and one set of trucks fell upon it. crushing the car to splinters. Following is a list of those who were killed in the wreck:
Amos Coulter, Hod houso, W. Va. Jnsper Dougherty, Now Martlnnvlllo, W. Vn. Col. W. E. Fife, Uuffiklo, W. Va. Charles Huffman, Blue Creek. \V. Va. Ella O'Loary, Charleston, W. Va. Orville Robinson, Midway, W. Va. L. C, Rose, Illue Creek, W. Va. Polly Sullivan, Mason City. \V. Va., worked In Churleston Thomas Thornton, Middleport, O., conductor Walter Wclcher, Charleston, W. Va. Mrs. Walter Welcher, Charleston, W. Va. JanieB White, Middleport, O. T. N. Wilson, Galliopolis, O.
The saddest feature was the death of Walter Welcher and his wife, who were killed in the same seat, leaving a little baby, which wan badly injured. It was taken care of by friends. What caused the burning of the trestle is not known, but it is supposed to have caught from cinders dropped by an engine that passed up after midnight. Only a few ties were burned. The engineer saw the smoke, but, thinking it was fog arising from the creek, went on. Persons living in the neighborhood saw the smoke, but thought it was from the campfires of persons who had been fishing there.
The forward car, which turned com pletely over, now rests right side up in a field some It) or 15 feet benenth the level of the bridge When the other car fell on the other side of the track many of the passengers were killed by the fall, but when the trucks crushed down on top of the car tliey smashed it to splinters and killed almost every person in its range. The top of the car was crushed beneath the weight of the heavy trucks and pressed down flat against tho bottom of tho car, literally squeezing the occupants to death.
TEMPEST IN TEXAS.
Heavy I.OSM In Galveston—The Gulf Eucroaches 011 the Streets and Dashes Vessels on the Tiers Many Sailors
Drowned. GALVESTON, Tex., July 6.—A terrific gale struck this city ut dark Sunday night, accompanied by a driving rainstorm. The low portion of the city was completely submerged by im-mense-waves from the gulf, which completely demolished everything in their path. Vessels were wrenched from their moorings nnd landed high on the beach. The scene along the wharf is frightful. Vessels wore dashed against the heavy piers, knocking great holes in their sides. The schooners were jammed against the trestle work of the Gulf, Colorado & Santa Fe railway, tearing away ubout 500 feet. Above the roar of the sea and the shriek of the wind could be heard the cries of the sailors who were battling in v.'.in against the elements. One schooner was driven against the jetties and wrecked. She is at present rapidly going to pieces, and it is believed the entire crew of ten men will be drowned. The life-saving service is powerless to render them any assistance In the face of the wind, which is blowing 40 miles an hour. One thousand feet of the track of the Galveston & Western railroad has been washed away and four freight oars swept into the sea. A fishing smack manned by two Mexicans was driven against the Mnllory wharf and torn to splinters. The Mexicans are believed to be drowned. The Union depot is completely under water and the railroads are at a complete standstill. The water is three feet deep in the street in front of the Western Union telegraph office, and is still rising.

His face was white and his hotly limp. When he finally re gained consciousness his first inquiry was for his wife, and he called her by name. He recognized her at once and talked with her. Shortly before o'clock he remarked to Dr. Mason: am uncomfortably warm." The doctor replied: "We have been trying to make you as comfortable as possible." "But" said Mr. Hamlin, in a vein of pleasantry rathoi- remarkable under the circumstances. "yon are inuking me disagreeably so." The doctor replied that in order to make him comfortable thej' must first make him uncomfortable. Mr. Hamlin complained considerably about being too warm and insisted upon tinning over 011 his left si le. lie had improved so much at one time that a bed was ordered made up for him in one of the rooms adjoining the room in which he was attacked. It was thought he might be removed there in a short time. Mr. Hamlin objected to being put in a bed, saying he wanted to sit up. Ills last words were regarding the bolstering up of' his head, which he wanted much higher. Gen. Hamlin, his son, was confident until almost the last that he would come out of his attack all right.
