A circular of information has been posted in all conspicuous places about the town, containing suggestions regarding the cleaning of houses and of personal habits.

Mr. James D. Soott said this afternoon:

work will continue as it has until Wednesday morning when everything will be handed over to the state. The chiefti of all departments are now making out reports which will be given to the commission appointed by the state. The work of relief will likely be oontinued by the state on the same plan as heretofore. We are obtaining some sort of system and have finally brought some kind of order out of chaos. The work of relief will havfto continue until the people can take hold for themselves. When the Cambria iron works and other mills resume, thevpeople will be able to earn money. Tfcnjreat aim just atpreesnt is to give therfbrvivors work. The state is to open a commissary department where goods will be sold until the merchants will be able to again on their feet. The line of charity will gradually shade into that ability of taking care of themselves. Until that time has come the people will have to be taken care of. We are building storehouses along the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, where suppliss will be stored until it is necessary to use them. It has been the practice to deliver them slmost'directly from the cars. This has caused confusion. This evil will soon be remedied. Supplies are still in demand."

There is no friction between tbe civil and military authorities. Chief Soott will remain in charge under General Hastings, or the commissioner appointed by Governor Beaver.

Action of Pennsylvania's

and

Other Officials.

PHILADELPHIA, June 10.—At the conference between Governor Beaver and Mayor Fitler, at the mayor's offioe on Saturday afternoon, the question of placing Johnstown and vicinity in good sanitary condition was thoroughly discussed. The governor contended that the Conemaugh river and Stony creek should be thoroughly cleaned and the debris removed from the now famous railroad bridge. The mayor suggested that an extra session of the legislature be called for making an appropriation of $1,000,000 for the prosecution of this work. He claimed that the money subscribed by the people of this city and other places, was subscribed for a specific purpose, that of feeding and clothing •a-tUatit was the duty at the state to itary condition

Governor saver coin­

cided in these views, but thought that it waa an unnecessary waste of money to call an extra session of the legislature, as it would cost at least a quarter of a million of dollars to do so and suggested that some plan be adopted whereby the state treasurer could use the amount required and be guaranteed by citizens of the state, in the ejent of the next legislature failing to make an appropriation of money expended in the work. The mayor thought that this was an excellent idea, and announced that he was preparw to I 'o on a bond as one of two hundred for 15,000. A rough draft of a bond was drawn up and taken by the governor to Johnstown yesterday. Governor Beaver returned to this city from Johnstown this afternoon and held another conference with Mayor Fitler. At the close of the oonferenoe the following copy of a bond of indemnity, prepared by the two gentlemen, was givsn for publication:

Whereas, James A. Beaver has this day given his bond to William B. Hart, state treMurer of the commonwealth of Pennsylvania, in the penal sum of $1,000.0011. condltlonedforthe paymentof whatever moneys may be advanced by the said William B. Hart Tor the purpose of clearing the streams and abaUng public nul^KS wWch threaten the health and safety of the P®°P _® °r this commonwealth, oauBed by the late floods, which have destroyed so much of life snd property In the Conemaugh and West Branch valleys and,

Whereas. There Is not sufficient time to assemble the legislature in order to secure a wgj»jar ar proprlation for the work which is absolutely necessary to be done lor the preservaJon of the health and safety of the people now, therefore,

We, the undersigned, attzens and corporations of the commonwealth of Pennsylvania, eachfor himself and no one for naj other. hereby ruaranteethe payment of the said bond to the extent of 16,000 and no more, upon the following conditions:

First—This guarantee not to be binding until signed by two hundred individuals or corporaSecond—If more than two hundred persons sign this guarantee, then the liability of each signer under the same will be proportionately reduced.

Third—The liability of each to be for a pro rata share of whatever amount may be expended by the said James A. Beaver for the purposes aforesaid, »t exceeding the penalty of the bond.

Fourth—This guarantee to be binding only In case tha legislature should fall to make an appropriation for the work undertaken to be carried out the governor through the state board of health, under the police powers of the state.

Witness our hands and seals this 10th day of June, A. D., 1889. "When I first thought of this scheme," said Governor Beaver, at the oonciuaion of the conference, "I came to Philadelphia to see Mayor Fitler, and waa so thoroughly backed up by him that I went ahead to carry it out While in Jonnstown yesterday I consulted with the Pittsburg authorities, and found them heartily in accord with it and on my way back I arranged with a contractor named O'Donnell to go ahead with the work on general business pnnoiples, and with one or two thousand men, remove all the debria in the Cone maugh at Johnetown and purify the water in the stream. I don think we will have and trouble in getting 200 citizena to go on that guarantee." "Have that many Philadelphians already," interrupted the mayor, "and ex pect to have 500 before it stops." "That's good," rsjoined the governor. "Almost every Pitteburger I met, who had any money, waa willing to go on the bond. I think myself, that the amount necessary for the work is RT»etly exsggerated, but so much is to be done that it will cost anywhere from one hundred to five hundred thousand, to oomplete it. The bond is simply one of indemnity, and I regard the thing only in the light of a sanitary precaution. In other words,' I operate under the police powers of tbe state, declare the Conemaugh river a public nuimfnntk and direct that the nuisance shall be abated aa soon as passible. It is my opinion that the amount of money

which would be required for an extra I session of the legislature will pay for all I tbe work thatus to be done, but I think! that the legislature will make an appropriation at the next eeasion to pay for all that is necessary."

Surgeon General Hamilton, of the Marine hospital service, who went to the scene at the late disaster at Johnstown, Pa., in obedience to the ordere of General Harrison, returned from his visit and immediately reported the result of his observation and inquiriee. His report is made public. It gives a deecripiion of the city of Johnstown at the time the flood occurred, and Hwaia jth the efforts to relieve the wants of the sufferers. The water supply of Johnstown, hesaysL is pure and wholesome, and there is little danger of an epidemic among the inhabitants of Johnstown. Dr. Hamilton continuss: "The danger point, from a sanitary point of view, is the drift at the bridge, and this dtfnger is not to the inhabitants of Johnstown but to those people depending on the lower river tor their water supply. This water, if boiled before drinking, will not be unhealthy, but the thought of drinking water contaminated by dead bodiee of human beings and animals is revolting. The clearing of this drift, while attended with great difficulty, will be accomplished. The published statement that animals are allowed to float down the river from the drift is positively untrue."

The New York life insurance company has sent Special Agent LaDg Muir to adjust claims. There were seventyfive policies held in this city, repreeenting $200,000. Within twenty-four hours the agent had located them all, and found that fourteen of the holders had been lost. Their policies amount to $46,000, which will be paid at once. One olioy held by Charles A. Kiss, a baker loing businsss in the center of the city, ras found two milss down the .river by aocident.

Mr. J. N. Mundon, who is in charge of the removal of bodies from the ruins, says that, until this date, he had found over six thousand dollBrs in money in the pockets of victims. The largest sua wss $4,114.23, The pockets of Charles Bischolf contained $235. Mr. Mundon states that the robbing of stores and dead bodies stiH continues, notwithstanding the guard whioh has been ilaoed over the ruins by the civil authorties.

To the people of the Unital States: This city has been devastated by the recent great floods and immediate assistance Is needed. Our streets, alleys and homes are In a frightful condition, and money is needed at once to sa»e as from an epidemic. We are receiving a generous supply of provision, but Lock Haven „alone Is not the only place to be supplied from these. Many people the near-by small toms have lost nearlyeverythlng they bad and are dependent upsn us for noeey and provisions, we need disinfectants badly and money with which to hire and men from a distance to help clean oar streets and cellars. There waa not a sawure inch of land within the corporate limits of the city proper that was not submerged, and whm tne water subsided It left a layer of mad and mth which, under tbe strong ran of to^ay. ^"iSS&JL steneh that Is almost unbearable. The contents of vaults and cesspools are In our cellars and on our main thoroughfares, and nothing will save us from a frightful epidemic unless help comes promptly and generously.

The Guarantee Oil & Gas obmpany has been fully organized with tlOO^OOO capital stock and hpme men ss stockholders. The president is Mr. Jcesphus Col lett, the treasurer Mr. W. 8. McKeen, and the secretary Mr. D. W. MinshalL The company has a capitaletock $100,000. This oompany Is -Organized as a home oompany to utilize the oil find here by handling and disposing of the oil. It is a tank line and pipe line company whose province will be to handle tbe oil found here. The stockholders are mainly thoee who compose the original Diall company, and who are our representative citizens. Speaking of the organization of this oomptfny the TJazette ssys:

The value of this company, managed as it is by capitalists who have no superiors In Indians, to the owners of single wells hereabouts will be very gnat Indeed. This oompany will boy their oil at fair prices and save them tbe necessity of selling to tbe Standard company, or looking up a market for themselves. This has been tbe great cause of anxiety to oil well owners but they have had little donbt of flndlofoll, yet have been very uuesnain as to where and how they coold dispose of tbe oil when found, not having time to devote to tbe business.

The fires were started under the boiler at the Smith well last night, and thej drills will be set going this morning. The West Terre Haute people expect to know inside of two weeke whether they have oil or gas. The Button-hole waa down 175 feet at 6 o'clock laat evening. The Vigo well, better known aa the MoKeen well because Mr. Frank MoKeen is president, whioh began drilling on Saturday, waa down more than one hundred 'feet yeeterday. Other wells are making good

the floods were started again. The Big Four, Kinser and Exchange wella are in a race for solid rook, the latter two being nearly even, with the former making a good third. The leaeing of land is slow work now, yet there are a good many outsiders here trying to get any available access. The Merchants' oompany have not finally decided on a place to drill, but will do so when the president of the company returns to the oity and calls a meeting. The experts from the Bast, who at first were in doubt about the value of the find, are no longer in doubt, and the whole effort now is to get the, advantage.

In the early morning she givee them oats and wheat, both whole, and warm water to drink. These two ways have points in common on examination. The first hen wife must give her hens what tbe others find for themselves. In the ploughed fields on the furm are lime, and insects, which, with their myriad of eggs, furnish animal food in plenty. Hay and corn stalks take the place of green food. Both flocksi are kept in clean quarters, and with' bout there ia careful breeding.
