Cmjcaoh, July ML-Cbairman Hoge of the grievance committer of tha Brother htwd of Kagiaaafs, and Chairma Marphr, occupying tho same position in the Firemen Brotherhood, ware arrMtod at the Nstioaal Motel at this morning hy OetecttVM of the Central atation. The prlimuars were taken com pleteir by swrpriso. They had evidently boon up a greater portion of the night in eanfarence relative to some important move. Both men were taken to the Armory and locked up. They are charged with conspiracy. The Mueh-talked-of circular ia whtoh Hoge is alleged to have requMted Broth orhood man to hire themMlvae secretly to the "O" road, and then disable the
engines, is what got Hoge into trouble. Chairman Murphy is charged with being an accomplice. General Manager Stone swore out the war ranis last night, and they were given to the oMoers to be aerved early this morning Attorney Collier of the Hurling ton road said this morning that the prisoaers would be arraigned before Justice Lyon and a oon Unuaaee taken, as the company wm not yet ready to push its ease. He said, however, that the evidence in posseMion of the company wm conclusive, and that the game of the Brotherhood men was uji. A midnight consultation of the officers of the company led to the arrests. Two or three detectives. Manager Stone, Paul Morton and Frank Collier, attorney for the company, were working all night oa the evidence against the alleged oonsplra tors, and it wm not until nn early hour this morning that they decided to arrest Hoge and Murphy. Mo more arrests will be made in this city, it is said, but it is probable that several strikers ia other places, who are now being shadowed by the company's detectives, will be behind the bars before long. The company, it is thought, has found one among the oo aspirators who has confessed. The disappearauM of Fireman Alec Smith, who was arrested the other day, and who wm not jailed with the other prisoners, taken in oon section with the remarkable seeresy which the Brotherhood maintains on all It does, seems to preclude the idea of the company having secured the eridenM ia aay other manner.

The freshet in the Mouongaheln river b almost uaprecedftttted, aad great damage has bean dou to river craft and other property all along the stream from the head w stars to this city. The suddeuuess of the rise took the river nten entirely unnwaroa, aad they were not jrspared when the great volume of water burst upow them. Millions of feet of lumber, score of eoal craft, fencos, outhouse and coal tipples have been noaiiuc down the swift current for
the last elghleeu hours. The river nt this point is still running, with tweuty-oue feet nine inches on tha marks at nine o'clock, but it is reported m stationary, with forty-five feet nt Greensboro, a hundred miles above this city. At every point between Greensboro and Pittsburgh the lowlands are under water, and the residents have been competed to live in the upper lories of their houses, and In some cases to seek the hills for safety. Many hud not time to remove their goods, as the water rose at the rate of a foot nn
hour, and at Greensboro thirty-two feet of a rise was recorded in less thnn thirty-four hours. The damage to property can not be estimated nt present, but it will reach away uu Into the thou sands. A solitary barge which broke away yesterday caused over five thouear-d dollars damage, and this is but one little item. Ho far but one life has been re jtorted lost, that of n man named George Getter, who was struck by a parted cable and Instantly killed. The scene along the river front tMls morning was one of great excitement. The banks were lined with people watch
lug the debris as it was swept down the swift current. The river and coal men were on the alert, fearing that their craft would be torn from their moorings, and as fast m one cable would snap in twain it would be replaced by another. Occa
sionally a floating boat, barge or tipple .vould strike one of the piers of the Sittithfield Street bridge and with a loud, grating sound sink from view; again the helpless craft would pas the bridge In safety and continue on its journey to Cincinnati. ThegreatMtdnmace to river craft occurred between half-past one o'clock this morning and daylight. Shortly before two o'clock a large number of barges belonging to Jenkins Co. came down the river from the second pool nnd struck the Smithfteld Street bridge, the huge barges turning end over end and breMting the towbeat Barnard lu against the steamer Jacobs. Every whistle on the river sounded the alarm, and as the livid rays of the electric lights swept from side to side across the turbulent flood, It
presented a wild sight. Logs, bargM and fuel boats were dashed against the piers of the bridge and snapped like twigs by the overwhelming force of tho current. Half of one of Jenkins' boats lodged against the bottom just below the Smlthfleld Street bridge, and the water dashed over it, throwing spray high into the air, while the driftwood crushed and crackled over the wreck, with a grinding noise which adds to the horrors ot the flood. About fifteen minutes after th broken barges came down, a number of pieces of wreckage floated past, in the middle of which a shanty boat wm swept along with the light on board. The river men shouted aad the whhHtae sorismed togetaa answer from aay person who might be on the boat, but no reply came, aad if the owners were on board and Mleep, m some of the river men thought,
they were swept uowa to meviiauie twist ruction. Later the steamer George Wood broke her moorings above the Tenth Street bridge, and came drifting down the river, but wm flnnllv caught and towed to safe harbor. The ropes that held the halfsunken Cincinnati wkhxfboat, which the owners had been struggling for twelve hours to save, parted about thi time, nnd the lumbersome craft wm quickly swept away. A few minutes later a lot of CKell's barges and twenty-six pieces -' longing to Joseph Walton & Co. were forced from their moorlug nnd carried down stream. "Pollshtown". located alsng the bank f the Monokffaheis. river, between the
foot of South Twenty-second aiul South Twenty-fourth streets, was In a sorry plight to-day. There are nearly seventyfivs shanty boats at that point, occupied by over one hundred nnd nfty families, aggregating a population of more than Ave hundred ieople. All of thM, with the exception of about a tlosen families, camiMNl last night. Early yesterday rao:lngthe trouble begau. All daymen, women nd children were busy pumping water oHt of the boats and removing their Koods to places of safety. By nigh

At fifteen minute past nine o'clock the Governor's decision w;i n. bounced, his private secretary, Mr. Yen 'tea, reading 1U The following is tho full text of the Governor's dssision; Mr. Jnkn L Jtiht ead f. M JjtrnttrMf, Mtrf4 for M. X, JbweK Okwtlsmk' I have carr telly and though . fully exsm(aet the ease of II. M.

My own exaattnaUOM of the papers In the esse, including the record of the, trial, the opinions of the courts aad tae letters and ttons, failed to disekva aay samelent reaper, for executive I titer f ranee. I knew no cu for this failure other thM that ao such rcaa is eontalned therein. I nnderstand your argument to be to th! effect: "Thai, whether gnlltr or not, no p-r-on should bs allewed te Milter the death penalty In Missouri who has been m unfairly tried as hes Urooks;" that "he ha been rrfiut-cl the only test of unlit, to-wit, a fair ar.il im. partial trial ttefore a fair and Impartial jury.' 1 am not sstted to determine whether or not he is guilty in fMt but I am neked to determine whether or not he has been fairly trtl, aad it is alleged that upon such inquiry I mil und that an ur.ilue prejudice was arouvnl by the press aad the populace ia demsndloK of the mry the htotd of the man m an expiation ot the heinous offense with which be wm charred; that certain instructions were given to the Jury that ought not to have been triven. aod other iMtrncttaas were aot given that ought to have been given; that certain of the Juron were dlMiuallaed from tervinx on the trial; that eertain moUom were denied, '.hit cetuin evidence wm admitted and presumably c-on-
eonsMered by the Jury, which wa obtained in an improperway, and that k other fcuch evltlcace the eireult attorney wm guilty of eon duct so reprehensible in an eCeer of a eoert m to merit executive censsre. All these points were peated ta the Supreme Court and paed upon by thai courtihe only authority properly haviag power w te do. It i further slleged that the popular mind hM undergoM a change; that the me pre-t and people whose nniformed belief led to uch elawer as to caue unmlr action by the Jury, bow are urgently Mhlng that the .method adopted ta procure conviction be rebuked by me by partially undoing what hM been ncecmlished. I am no t aked te punish either the circuit attorney or the detective. IMsgfelder, but I am aked to relieve an adjudged criminal of the punishment prescribed ly law for the crime ot which he stands convicted, because the) two pertoas have Incurred the dipleaur of rwtfatthinking people of the State. This stride me m lltagtesl. I think any is terfcrenee with the verdtat of the Jury and the MHtenee of the court m this ease, merely to bow my disawreval of tM method pursued by an cfacerrf the court, would be unwue and against the best Interests of koetety I prefer to act by more direct method.
