VICTIMS OF llllill WATER.

COM,-suit's, Miss.. April 12.—News just obtained from points below where the country is Hut. and devoid of hills indicates that later information may show that at least 100 negroes have been drowned in this county alone. The waters have receded about 7 feet and continue to fall slowly. Most oi the county bridges have been swept' uwiiy. Tire Mobile it Ohio railroad has three work trains, with 200 men, on the ror.ii between here and A rtesia.

Driven from Their Homes.

All farms along the Tombigbee river valley have been ubandoned, houses of all kinds washed away, all fencing is gone, cattle and mules by hundred have boen drowned. Every 'available craft here has .been used day and night relieving the sufferers. On one small mound there were forty peopleand as many more cattle and mules. On another there were seventy people and cattle by the hundreds. The white people have been unable to get a negro to do any kind of work towards rescuing other negroes without payment in advance. There has been no communication before Monday with the outside world since last Wednesday.

The Klvvr Seven Miles Wide. BIRMINGHAM, Ala., April 12.—It began raining again at Columbus. Miss., late Sunday night, and the danger has been increased. The country all around there is out of sight. The river is about *i miles wide, and the damage to crops, houses and cattle is at present incalculable. A message from Superintendent Ryder, of the Georgia Pacific, who is near Columbus, to hisco-ofilcials here, states that it rained all Sunday night in Mississippi, and the outlook is very gloomy. All railroads have suffered severely, and few trains are running. It is impossible to run any trains west of Columbus.

Stories of the Deluge.

Conductor Wilrnot says he saw two men drowned in the Yalabusha river near Greenwood by a boat upsetting last Saturday. He says the entire country west of Grenada is submerged, and the damage done is great. Ed Davis, clerk in the Southern Express office, ran over to Columbus as messenger Saturday, the regular messenger having been cut off by the floods, lie says the damage done by the floods is great He heard of nine negroes being drowned. He also heard of two white men whose boat upset with them climbing trees and remaining there for twenty-four hours until they were rescued. About 8 miles from Columbus on the plantations many families of negroes are missing. J. \V. Bass, transfer clerk of the mail service here, took a man out to Columbus last week as postal clerk and did not go back again until Sunday night. He says the postmaster of Columbus informed him that no less than twentylive people are missing in the flooded district and are supposed to have been drowned. The Tombigbee river left its banks and flooded a great section of country. He says inuny people who would have been drowned were rescued. Hundreds of head of cattle were lost.

IJumuicu In Other Counties. Reports from Walker, Marion and other counties northwest of there are to the effect that enormous damage has been done by tlio floods. Bridges have been washed away and mines flooded, railroads washed out and crops ruined. The farmers' have suffered heavily. Near Pearson's Mills, Marion county, a farmer named John Livingston, while crossing a swollen stream, was drowned. His wagon and horses were swept away. Several large iron bridges in Marion county were washed away. There are about 000 negroes and some white refugees in Columbus. They are homeless and are absolutely sufl'ering. The weather is cold and they are poorly clad, and many will die.

Damage on the JlllnoU.

BEARDSTOWN, 111., April 12.—Great damage has been done above and below this city by the high water in the Illinois river caused by the recent heavy nains. About 25.000 acres of fanning land is now covered with water ranging in depth from 1 to 10 feet. Several families have been .driven from their homes by the-flood and are now quartered on the high lands. The damages to the growing wheat cannot be estimated as-hundreds of acres that promised a large yield will be a total loss and the other lands that were being prepared for oats, corn and other farm products will not bo cultivated. It is stated by those in a position to know that the overflow is caused largely by the La Grange lock and dam about 12 miles below here, which have caused the bottom of the. river to fill up with a sediment from the muddy water until the water is forced from the banks of the riven over I low lands adjoining. The sentiment here is decidedly in favor of removing the dams and using the large appropriations to level the banks and dredge the bottom of the river instead of filling it up.

The lied river at St. Vincent, Minn., is over the banks and has began flooding that town and Emerson. It is 40 feet above low water mark and still rising. As the ice drive has not yet gone out a greater height is feared. A rise of only 1 foot more will cover the town of Emerson.

VICTORY FOR "PLUNGER" PARDRIDCE

Tl»o Hull Operator* on tho Hoard of Trade* Work Hard to Down" lllin, Hut ile IM SftOO.OOO Ahead at the Session'* Close.

WON IIA1.F A Mll.I.IO.

CHICAGO, April 12.—Ed Pardridge, the famous "b^ar" operator on tlie board of trade, during Monday's session made over KS00.000. and at the close the noted plunger had the crowd which was out after his scalp on the run.

All K.veltliiK ScHsltui.

The scene on the floor during the (utter part of the session was the most exciting that has been witnessed in many a day. There was a.broak of live cents in the market. From 8.1 cents May wheat dropped by big jumps to SOWc and finally closed at SOJj'c. This is2^c below the close Saturday night.

Mad» a Fortune.

From the high point to the low figure Pardridge makes five, cents per bushel on his 10,000,000 short line, or what amounts to a gain of §,"00,000. Over and above this he netted considerable on trades on the fluctuations. He was the heaviest buyer and seller and must fiave made a pot of money out of his scalping deals. The greatest excitement prevailed, even the spectators in the galleries losing all control of their feelings and shouting with tile brokers at everv slump in the. market. The bears went wild over their success.

All In Hi* i-'uvor.

Everything was in favor of the plunger—the only short, man on tlie floor. First came the depressing cables from Liverpool, then tlie London failure. Next came the announcement that the visible supply of wheat had increased by 141,000 bushels, and last, but not by any means least, a oablegram from Europe stating that the lilaek sea ports had been opened and that the Russian prohibition on exports of wheat is about to be removed. All these conditions are bearish in the extreme, and there was absolutely no bull argument in the operations on 'change.

Crowds 111 Attendance.

The opening was a repetition of what is often seen on'change. It was exciting. but not more than wits expected. The galleries were crowded with spectators, who had chosen a good day for witnessing the operations in the pit. Many ladies were among tlio spectators, and an intense interest was manifested in the hubbub niul confusion on the floor. For five minutes after the first bid there was intense excitement and the market went wild. Then it took a down-turn and struck 83% cents In a short time it was up again and sold at S.jJi cents, but in a moment dropped to the starting point- again. Duriug the. first two hours the fluctuations were along this line.

I'ardrldge Takes llltutl.

Shortly after 10 o'clock Pardridge appeared in the pit and began selling wheat on all sides, and a few minutes later the market broke from S5e and a fraction to SSUc. Then it looked as though Pardridge was after the crowd. He made a lot of money on his sales and repeated his operation of Saturday, speculating on the fluctuations of the session, while his 10,000,000 bushels of short wheat remained on linnd. as he says, to make him at the end of the game. The break was due. to the announcement that, contrary to the belief of all brokers, 141,ooo' bushels of wheat had been added to the visible supply, when according to all rules the supply at this time of the year should be decreasing. When wheat began to run down the scale there was intense excitement on the floor and when the price touched 82 Ds the confusion equaled anything seen since the days of "Old Ilutch." For some time the trade was fairly steady, ranging between 82!J' and 83 cents, and tho bears gave the bulls a hard row to hoe. When wheat was at S I cents i'ardridge disposed of 1.000,000 bushels or more, and half an hour later the price was 82cents. Had he chosen to close on the deal then he would have made about ¥20,000 by the operation. ••Old Hutch'*" SiiccrMiinr.

From this time on the market went down amid excitement mid confusion seldom witnessed, even in this turbulent field of speculation. For half an hour before the close wheat jumped about between 80)£ and 81 cents, and the bullish side of the pit, which expected to boost prices above bO centi, was dismave.d. When the bell sounded the finish the crowd which started after Pardridgc's scalp threw up its hands and bowed the knee to him as "Old Hutch's" successor.

WANTS A PALACE.

WASHINGTON, April 12.--A bill will be introduced in congress this week for purchasing a site upon which to erect a new executive mansion.

BOSTON,

Mass., April 2. Sunday

evening an instructor and ten boys connected with the ltoston farm school at Thompson's island were capsized in a sail boat, and the instructor and eight of the boys drowned. The victims were: A. F. Norbuig. instructor Frank F. Hitchcock, Homer F. Thatcher, George F. Ellis. Thomas Phillips, William W. Curran, Charles 11. Graves. Harry E. Loud. Adelbort 11. Packard.

Struck by Squall.

Tlie rescued persons were O. W. Clements, aged 17. and Charles A. Limb, aged 10. The instructor had beeu to the city during the day to attend church, and the boys, constituting a regular crew of the school, left the island at 11:40 to sail to City

Point to convey the instructor to the inland. The trip is considered perfectly safe, having been made for years without accident. Soon after 7 p. m. the boat started on the return. Between Spectacle island and Thompson's island the boat was struck 4jy a squall and capsized. !nto t!»«• Water.

The eleven occupants were thrown into the ice-cold water, but succeeded in securing positions where they could cling to the overturned craft. At one time a tug was seen in the distance and they shouted with all their strength. but could not attract attention. The night was cold and the horses and wluirvcs were abandoned. When the time for the boat to return to the island had passed, the superintendentof the school. Charles II. liradley. went to the beach, but CQtild see nothing. The survivors say that they saw him patrolling the beach and felt that rescue would come, but it did not.

Nine Were Urotvinwl.

Finally the. chill of the water and the exertion necessary to keep their heads above the surface overfame the unfortunates and one by one they were compelled to release their hold. The instructor was the first to go. Each offered :i prayer or a word of farewell to the others as In- gave up his hold. Some of them endured the unequal test for nearly four hours and il wns 11 o'clock when the boat, with the two nearly exhausted survivors still clinging to it. drifted in shore. They were immediately cared for and are recovering. .Superintendent liradley came to the city, notified the police and the officers of the Boston Farm school of the disaster, and engaged divers to search for the bodi-'s. This is the only drowning accident that, hits happened to the school since 184'J.

REFUSED FAIR PLAY.

The Senate Disgrace* an Kinplnye and PeelineH lo Make an InveHtlKUtlon. WASIIIXOTO.V, April 12.—After three, and a half hours spent.in executive session behind closed doors and after a stormy debate the senate on Monday yielded to the powerful pressure brought to bear by the committee, on foreign relations and vacated the office, of executive clerk, filled for ten years by James R. Young. When the doors were closed a definite proposition was taken up. It was to order an investigation of the conduct of Mr.

Young, who has been excluded from the executive sessions ever since the Bell ring sea treaty wns laid before the senate. This was defeated after a spirited

conteM

in which Sena-

tor Mandersou freely commented in terms of hitter sarcasm upon the course, I of senators who were willing to cast an imputation it.nn an honorable employe without affording him an opportunity to vindicate himself from suspicion.

Senator Cameron presented a letter from Mr. Young. in which the latter, while signifying his willingness to surrender his office at the will of the senate, in a plain and manly way requested a thorough investigation, saying that if he had betrayed executive secrets, as had been alleged, he was liable to punishment under the law, and that he was perfectly ready to abide by the result.

There wns mpch difficulty in getting a quorum, but finally this was secured and the motion looking to an investigation was defeated by a narrow majority. So small indeed was the majority that the members of the foreign relations committee became alarmed, and tinder tin1 leadership of Senator Sherman, aided by Senator Hale, they redoubled I heir efforts to reap the fruits of their victory through the adoption of the res ilution declaring the office of executive clerk vacant. This was finally carried by a majority'of ten.
