BREAK IN THE LEWISTON RESERVOIR.
An Artificial Lake Covering an Area of 12,000 Acres Turned Loose The Waters Cause Much Damage—"
Loss of Life Feared.
A RF.SEKVOIB SPRINGS A I.KAK. UKBANA, O., May 4.—Tho greatest calamity that ever came to the people 111 Logan and Hardin !bunties was that of Tuesday night, when the Lewiston reservoir broke and turned an immense flood of water upon the residents along its course. The break was in the northwest corner of the reservoir, where a waste way 020 feet in length is located. A break 200 feet wide occurred, and the water came rushing* down in .a flood 10 feet deep and
'A
miles wide, completely
submerging the country around and carrying everything in its way. People Fie© In Terror.
The big covered bridge 150 feet in length was swung completely around and then swept awaj'. In the course of the flood stood the houses of Jack Smith and William Devault and a large number of tenement and squatters' and bachelors' homes. All of these are submerged, though fortunately everybody managed to escape from the danger. People fled in terror from their homes, while the swift and rushing flood came on down the valley taking everything before it.
Towns Flooded In It's Course. The first town along the course of the flood is Port Jefferson, where the dam throws the water into the Miami canal. A portion of the town is low and it was badly flooded. Quincy, Logansville, Degraff, Piqua, Troy and Dayton are also in the course of the Hood.
The damage to property in Logan county alone is estimated at £50,000. Farmers will lose everything but their land and they will bo financially ruined.
X.osn of Life Feared.
The Lewiston reservoir is located 5 miles northeast of Hunt,sville, Logan county, and contains 12,000 acres of water. Hundreds of families loft their homes and fled out of the reach of the coming torrent. So far no loss of life has been reported, but when the floods subside it will likely be revealed that more than one unfortunate perished. llul]roads Heavy Sufferers.
SPRINGFIELD, O., May 4.—The dam age in this city and vicinity from the Hoods will run up into the thousands. Two hundred houses were flooded on the first floor and furniture ruined.
The greatest sufferer is the Ohio Southern railroad in its extension to Lima, which is now building. The grade is badly damaged from here to Tremont City, 10 miles, and in places the road embankment is entirely washed away. Two bridges are also gone. The total loss in this vicinity will foot up 525,000.
Cmi.i.icoTHE, O., May 4.—The Scioto continues to rise. It has washed out 1,000 feet of the Baltimore & Ohio north east of the city. Trains on that road go via Columbus over the Norfolk & Western. Trains on the Dayton & 1 ronton transfer passengers and mail by boats over an inundated break. In the Scicto valley between here and Waverly 12,000 acres of planted corn in the bottoms have been overflowed.
Canal Locks Washed Out.
CIHCLEVILLE, O., May 4.—The Scioto is stationary here, the highest stage ever known. The river cut into the bed of the canal at the 2-inile level below Cireleville and washed the bank of the canal away. A strong current set down the canal bed and striking the locks at the foot of the level washed them out. These locks have, stood since 1830.
ZANCSVILLK, O., May 4.—Both the Licking and Muskingum rivers are higher than since 1884. Fully 100 houses in the lower parts of the city are flooded midway the first story and the loss will aggregate thousands of dollars.
The Mississippi Falling:.
ST. LOUIS, MO., May 4.—The flood has reached its crest and the river has declined two-tenths of an inch, and unless there should be heavy rains within the next few days will continue "to slowly subside.
Considerable damage has been done by the water on the Missouri side. Along the route of the Iron Mountain railway no loss than a dozen houses are completely wrecked. One house is completely under water.
Homeless Families.
From Elwood street to Ivory Station along the Iron Mountain railway the water is »vor its banks and has inundated the country. At the latter uamod place six families have been made homeless by the high water. At River View, opposite Jefferson barracks, the entire coun try looks like one volume of water. Between East Carondelet proper and Fish lake a gang of workmen are engaged in building a new levee. The rain which fell Saturday night and Sunday turned Barrack and Darden creeks into raging torrents which carried away everything before them.
Live Stock Drowned.
Cuivere river is higher than ever known before. It is even higher than It was during the famous flood of 1884. It is all over tho first and second bottoms and has causcd a great deal of damage to the crops, besides drowning a number of cattle. It is feared that it will take the splendid railroad bridge at Old Monroe. The Keokuk company has a large force of men cutting away drift, hoping to save it.
The Flood at St. Paul.
ST. PAUL, Minn., May 4.—The Mississippi river at this point is 14 feet iJK inches high, being considerably above the danger line. Thirty families on the Bohemian flats on the west side liav been driven from their homes, and more will have to move to places of safety. The river presents the appear ancc of a wist lake. But little damage
rHE DAILY JOURNAL
has thus far bi en dorie, however. It is xpeeted that the river will rise nearly foot higher, in which case several manufactories will be compelled to close down.
Farmers Lose Heavily.
The inundation in the Red River of the North has reached the maximum and the water is now stationary. Pembina, N. D., and Emerson, Man.', and neighboring towns are still under water and nearly all traveling is done in boats. The wator, it is believed,will soon begin to fall. The result has been disastrous to farmers.
Pat ok a River Out of Its^Danks. OWENSBORO, Ky., May 4.—The Patolca river is higher than for years. An immense tract of country is overflowed and great damage will result. Between Jasper and Huntingburg the whole country is overflowed, forming an inland sea 20 miles long by 0 to 10 miles wide.
Deaths from a Cyclone.
RALEIGH, N. C., May 4.—A cyclone struck Oxford, 40 miles northwest of here, Wednesday afternoon, and demolished fifteen buildings, all of wood. Some of them were large tobacco prize houses four and five stories high. Only one man was killed. Several were iniured.
C'HAUI.F.STON, S. C., May 4.—A tornado passed through a portion of Lexington and JJewbury counties Wednesday, unroofing houses and mills and destroying barns, stables and outhouses. Much damage was done to orchards and woods. A white woman was killed and a number of persons were injured.
SUNDAY OPENING.
The Belief Growing That the World's Fair Directors Will Place the Great Show at the Disposal of Visitors on the
Lord's Day. CHICAGO, May 4.—The judicial committee of the national commission of the Columbian exposition to which was referred the question of opening the fair on Sunday virtually leaves the question for the directory to decide, saying that tlieclosing rule must stand, unless the directory can lawfully make a modifying order. The directors are saying very little as to their intentions. It is known, however, that tickets are ready for use on Sunday next, and all preparations have bee)} make to open the gates without announcing the fact until it is too late for legal interference.
An official of the exposition said Wednesday night that the fair could not be opened until Sunday, May 14 that the directors still have the Sundayclosing rule on their books, which was adopted when they accepted the souvenir coins, and ufitil that rule is rescinded the gates cannot be opened The directors, he added, do not hold a regular meeting until Friday, May 12, and it is intended to pass a rule at that meeting opening the gates.
MOONSHINERS CAUGHT.
Uncle Sam's Officers Break Cp a Notorious West Virginia Gang—Two Women Among the List of Forty-Five Prisoners.
NKW YOBK, May 4.—A special to the Times from Wheeling, W. Va., says the largest haul of moonshiners ever made in West Virginia by internal revenue officers was elosad up Tuesday and the prisoners, forty-five in number, are now en route to Charleston in charge of a strong posse of United States marshals and guards. Among the prisoners are two women, Clara Smith and May Betchell, who have been particularly active and successful in making mountain dew" for several years past. They were all gathered up in McDermott and Wyoming counties, and their arrest practically breaks up the moon shine business in that portion of the state. :.
No One to Ulame.
MILWAUKEE, May 4.—The coroner's jury investigating the crib accident, in which fourteen men were drowned, returned its verdict, which is most remarkable for its length and its exoneration of every one. Tlie jury concludes that the men's house washed from the crib was strong enough to withstand any ordinary storm, while the one which caused its destruction is characterized as the most extraordinary one in thirty years. Referring to tho life-saving crew and Capt. Peterson the jury finds that they did the best they could.
Five Men Hurt.
MILWAUKEE, May 4.—1 he immense sheds of the Northwestern I ucl company at the foot of Washington street collapsed without warning Wednesday burying about twenty men. The sheds were of wood and covered an area 200 hy 20 feet. No causc can be ascribed for their collapse. They probably gave way under their own weight. Nobody was killed outright, but five men were badly injured and some may die.
Kx-Presldent Harrison Honored. CINCINNATI, O., May 4.—Ex-President Harrison has been elected by the Ohio commandery of the military order of the Loyal Legion of the United States as its commander for the ensuing year, Maj. E. C.

HE IS NOT SCARED..
Mr. Carlisle Says the Treasury Gives No Cause for Alarm.
SO FEAR OF ITS EMBARRASSMENT.
rhe Financial Condition of the Vest' ?ratifylujf—II« Declares There Will He No Trouble in Keeping the Gold lie* serve v.i a Safe Figure.
CARLISLE FEELS EASY.
WASHINGTON, May 4.—Secretary Carlisle is evidently pleased at the gold situation after looking over the condition of financial affairs in the west and his conference with New York bankers. There was plenty of gold which can be utilized, he remarked, but he had made no absolute arrangements while away for the acceptance of any gold by the treasury. The situation had improved during the last two days, or since the first of the month, when the department's monthly debt statement showed that the $100,000,000 gold reserve had been trenched upon to the extent of perhaps $3,000,000. Wednesday there was fully *88.000,000 of gold reserve, with offers of gold from banks in exchange for paper money that would sweH the reserve fully up to the $100,000,000 mark.
No Cause for Alarm.
There was, he said, nothing in the situation to cause the least bit of nervousness about the treasury's gold balance. There might, he said, be a considerable drain of gold for exportation before the tide Bets in the other way, when crop exports early in the fall exceed imports, but with one hundred millions of gold in the treasury, put there to meet just such an emergency as the last few months has developed, and with the banks of the country evidently willing to assist the treasury whenever assistance should be needed in keeping the treasury gold reserve up to safe figure, there was, he thought, no good reason, all reports to the contrary notwithstanding, for alarm. Misrepresentation and misunderstanding of the condition of the treasury had gone a good ways toward creatiug an uneasy feeling about tho near future but the hundred million reserve had been cut down a few millions and yet there had been no panic.
Another Conference.
The secretary Is going to New York again for a conference with the representatives of the leading banking institutions of the metropolis. This conference will probably take place Sunday, and an intimation has been given that the secretary of the treasury will accept the offers made to him in New York several days ago on modified terms.
Free Gold In tlie Treasury. Free gold in the treasury amounts to about $3,000,000, and it is not improbable that there \yill remain a slight surplus after the Saturday withdrawals for shipment abroad. Rates of exchange remain so evenly low that there is no prospect of large withdrifwuls.
HE PLEADS GUILTY.
Sentem'o In the Case of the ftockford (111.) Matricide Reserved. ROCKFORD, 111., May 4. William Burke, the young man who murdered his mother, shooting her through the breast with a shotgun while she lay asleep a week ago last .Monday and who slept in the room where the dead body lay until the following Saturday morning, when he went to the sheriff and gave himself up, was brought before Judge Shaw on Wednesday. He insisted on pleading guilty and the judge reserved sentence until he could have time to think of the peculiar features of the case and perhaps to examine some witnesses privately. No" one thinks that Burke will be sentenced to be hanged though he expresses a willingness that that shotild be his fate. It is thought likely he will be given a life sentence.
Water Famine In Mexico.
ZACATECAS, May 4. The water famine in this city and alor.R thelineof the Mexican Central road in tlie states of Coahuila, Zacatecas and Chihuahua has become alarming and the traffic of the road in this and northern divisions is seriously interfered with. Seven freight trains are tied up owing to lack of water to supply the engines. What water there is here comes from polluted wells, causing an epidemic of sickness. There is a total failure of crops.

Highest of all in Leavening Power.—Latest U. S. Gov't Report
China Will Hold Him Responsible for Injury to Her Subjects.
CAUSE OF GRESHAM'S PROMPT ACT.
Gov. Peiinoypr. of Oregon, Augereri at the Secretary's Tcle&ram, and says the 1'resldcnt Ought to "Mind
Ills Own Business."
WASHINGTON, May 4. Secretary Gresham said that one reason why he had so promptly notified Gov. Morrow, of California, to use all lawful means at his command to prevent an AntiChinese riot on Friday or Saturday, when the penalties of the Geary exclusion act go into force, was due to President Cleveland's vivid recollection of the awful massacre of Chinese at Silver Creek, Wyo., during the first Cleveland administration. At that time several hundred Chinese were slaughtered by infuriated miners. Wyoming was not at that time admitted to statehood and it was therefore under the direct jurisdiction of the United States government. The Chinese government made a vigorous protest, and Secretary Bayard willingly conceded that a liberal indemnity should be paid for the murdered Chinamen. Mr. Cleveland sent a special message to congress advising a liberal indemnity and an appropriation of $100,000 was readily agreed to. It was with this experience in mind the president and secretary of state acted so promptly.
Had Alarming- Reports.
The information of the threatened outbreak reached the government authorities through the Chinese legation in Washington. Its representatives in California sent word of threats of violence and apparently systematic organization for attacking the Chinese as soon as the Geary law beeeme operative. The counselor of the legation conveyed this information to Supervising Special Agent Tingle, of the treasury, and the latter to Acting Secretary of State
Will Demand Protection.
At the state department tha Chinese counselor notified the acting secretary in diplomatic but firm language that the Chinese government would expect the federal authorities to secure to all Chinamen in this country the protection guaranteed them under existing treaties, and that it would hold the United States government responsible for any bloodshed or violence that might arise in conscquence of any antiChinese riot or demonstration. He referied in this connection to the promptness with which the Chinese government suppressed all anti-Christian uprisings in the Chinese kingdom. The visit of the Chinese counselor was equivalent to serving a notice on the United States government.
The secretary brought the subject to the attention of the cabinet at its special meeting Wednesday. There were no developments since the telegrams Tuesday night, but the secretary is keeping watch of the situation, and if Gov. Morrow feels that the state forces are not sufficient to cope with any emergency that nlay arise federal troops will be sent from San Francisco.
Hordes of Chinese Coming. Another interesting feature of the Chinese question was developed Wednesday by telegrams to the treasury department. These were to the effect that hordes of Chinese were arriving by every steamship in order to bo within the country before next Friday. The steamer Danube arrived with 600 Chinamen on board. The health officer at Astoria, Ore., where they were detained, telegraphed the treasury department that more than three hundred of the newcomers had bogus certificates showing that they had heretofore been in this country. On this showing Assistant Secretary Spalding ordered an extra force of treasury agents and Chinese interpreters to Portland, Ore., where a rigid inspection of this cargo of Chinese will be made. The Danube is but one of many vessels arriving daily with exceptionally heavy steerages of Chinese.
Gov. l*ennoyer*s Retort.
PORTLAND, Ore., May 4.—The following telegraphic correspondence has passed between Secretary of State Gresham and Gov. Pennoyer: "WASHINGTON, May 3.—Gov. Sylvester Pennoyer, Salem, Ore.: Apparently reliable reports Indicate danger of vtolenco to Chinese when exclusion act takes effecl and the president earnestly hopes you -will employ all lawful means for their protection in Oregon. "W. Q. GLIKSBAM."
Gov. Pennoyer immediately sent the following reply: "SAJ.EM, Ore., May 3—To W. Q. Gresham, Washington, D. C.: I will attend to my business Let the president at tend to his. "SYLVESTER PENNOYER, Governor."
Gov. Pennoyer said: "The Gresham telegram is an insult to Oregon. I will enforce laws of the state and the president should enforce the laws of congress. It comes with poor grace for the president to ask me to enforce the state law while he without warrant suspends tlie exclusion law."
Robbers Make Way with Jewelry. 7 AHCOI.A, 111., May 4.—The drug and jewelry store of George Ivlink was visited by cracksmen Tuesday night and robbed of $850 in cash, forty-one gold watches, 125 gold rings, twentysix gold vest chains and numerous small articles of jewelry aggregating $2,100. The money and jewelry were deposited in the safe, which was drilled, blown open and coniplotelv ruined.
