BLL'KFIELD, W. Va., June 2(1.-An-othor
-i hours hare passed, and the full
extent of the vast damage done by the
flood ciiunnt yet bo accurately staled.
All over this suction there is great re
lief expressed at fie announcement that
the lots of' life is not so great as tt first
believed: Many of the missing who were
mourned as dead by their friends have
turnnd up. Six bodies were found Mon
day, but they were discolored nnd swoll
en beyond recognition.
It is now highly probable thnt very few
of the dead whose bodies nre found at
this late hour will ever be identified.
The Norfolk nnd Western Itailrond
company continues to make every effort
to hasten the opening of communication
but M um the affected district nnd the out
side world. Laborers nre going In a con
linuul stream, and many hundreds more
could bo used. The work of repairing
and clearing tne uchris goes on night nnd
day. A. thoroughly equipped electric
light plant, consisting of three cars, has
been provided. It is callable of furnish
ing H) arc lights of grunt power and is
equipped with n huge searchlight that
sweeps tlie country around for a mile.
Wrecking trains completely manned
continue to arrive. They have been sent
by connecting lines to aid iu clearing the
right of way aie rebuilding tfie tracks.
How many are dead Is not definitely
known, and it necessarily will be several
days yet before the exact number can be
given ffut as olllcial, but the various re
ports in circulation here are that all the
way from f0 to 200 persoiw have been
drowned. It is probably safe to assume
the former figures as being more nearly
corroct thau (ho latter. The damage to
property will umount to hundreds of
thousands of dollars. Miles of railroad
track nre washed out, and great gulches
hnve been created.

The explosion occurred shortly after

iu which were hundreds of children. Not
only whs the school damaged, but large
quantities of wreckage were bulled Into
It. As It was, some of the school children
playing near (he schoolhouse were in

plosion that a boy plnying In tlie street
half a block nway was lifted from his

one of his legs broken. There wns n trol

Norman E. Mack s paper, yesterday nft
I'l'iioon: "I am not only not a candidate

in principles, ami men nre important only
us they aid In carrying out these princi

lelimte, positive principles, and unless I
mistake the sentiments of the masses
the voters will insist upon adhering to
these principles iu spite of the threats
f reorganized. J hose who argue from
i In- standpoint of expediency will not
have influence witli the voters, because
(jo one can say what is expedient. Wo

CIiish Itcilnloii.
XF.W HAVF.X, .Line 2I.-A slated in
earlier dispatches from liere, Adelbert
Stone Hay. consul to Pretoria during the
more stirring and momentous stage of
tlie Boer war, the oldest son of the Hon.
John Hay, secretary of slate in Presi
dent McKinlcy's cabinet, nnd one of the
most prominent sons of Yale, met n tragic .
death In this city at 2:110 o'clock Sunday
morning. The mauner of the death, its
victim atid the fact that the tragedy oc
curred on the very eve of Yale's com
mencement, In which the young man by
virtue of his class oflice wns to have been
a leader these sad conditions hnve cast
flu unmistakable gloom over the gladdest
of Yale seasons.
Mr. liny went to a death the full de
tails of which will never be known.
Shortly before 2:110 o clock in the morn
ing he fell from a window In the third
story of the New Haven House, where
he had rooms for commencement week,
to the Chapel street pavement, fully 00
feet below. The frightful fall resulted 111
Instant death, and within l.'i minutes the
body bad been identified ns that of young i
Hay.

nf young Hay was traced in nn effort to
penetrate tile uncertainties of the awful
affair. It was learned that tlie young
man on May 20 left Washington wilu
his mother and two sisters for Newbury,
N. II., the summer home of Secretary
Hay. Last week he left New Hamp
shire for New York, where he spent some
days. He arrived iu New Haveu Sat
urday evening in time for dinner nnd
went immediately to the New Haven
House, where he wns assigned to room
No. 47, third floor, front, directly over
tlie Chapel street entrance to the hotel
ollice. Young Hay was one of the van
guard of the academic class of 1 ale, '.IS.
He had come to his old college home as
a member of his clasj triennial commit
tee nud enmo early to assist his col
leagues on the committee in preparing
for the festivities of commencement week
iu general and for tho class supper in
pa rtlcular.
There wns a solitary spectator to the
terrible trntfedy, a laborer of the city
streets. At the hour mentioned tho
workman aw the form nf a man falling
through spnee. An instant later there
was a sickening thud, and the form lay
prostrate directly iu front of the mnln
hotel entrance.
The body was clad in pyjamas. On tho
window sill of .the room occupied by
young Hay wus found a partly consumed
cigarette;. On the floor near the window
was a ring worn by the victim. His cloth
ing had been neatly arranged, and the
bedclothes were drawn back. The bed,
however, had not been occupied. Here
the mystery becomes intangible.
The popular theory seems to have it
that the young man, having prepared for
bed, thought to indulge iu u "good night
smoke;" that he chose the cool of tho
window, possibly dozed, lost his balance
and fell from the window.
The Funeral nt Cleveland.
CLEVELAXII, June 2I!.-The ttnin

et: Governor, George K. Nash; lieuten

judge, .1. L. Priiis attorney general. John
M. Sheets; clerk of the supremo court,
Lnwsou 10. Emerson; state treasurer,
Isaac B. Cameron: member board of pub
lic works, W. (J. Johnston.
The convention wn in session from
10:10 a. hi. to 1:10 p. in., breaking the
Ohio record by completing it work In
three hours. The intense heat was pros
trating, and Chairmnn Hiinnn not only
cut short his own speech, but also those
of others, and then disputchod business
Willi the utmost speed.
In those three hours the convention
nominated n full state ticket, nilopted Its
declaration of principles, indorsed Jo
seph B. Foraker ns the Republican can
didate for re-election as t'nited States
fonntor, completed tliearly organization
for the campaign and transacted other
business.
Of the seven nominations only three
were new men, and one of these, Xippert,
for lieutenant governor, was nominated
without opposition, after Lieutenant Gov
ernor Caldwell hail declined renominn
lion. Nash, Shecis, Cameron and John
ston were lenoiniuatcd for second terms
without opposition. There were free for
nil contests for the nominations: for su
preme judge iiud clerk of the supreme
court.
It had been currently reported that
Crew nnd Critchfield were on the Hannil
slate for these two Dominations, but Sen
ator Ilnnna vigorously denied taking any
part whatever in the contests for these
two places. The vole showed thnt Price
and Emerson had formed a combination
that worked successfully for both of
them. Judge Price of Limn has been on
the common pleas nnd circuit benches,
and Emerson has been prominent iu poli
tics in eastern Ohio for years.
The nomination that caused the most
comment was that of Xippert in place of
Lieutenant Governor Caldwell, the latter
being the only one who was elected with
Governor Nash two years ago that wns
not renominated for .a second term. Tho
state Anti:iloon league caused' Caldwell
to run several thousand behind his ticket
In ISO!) and had vigorously opposed his
nomination.

WASHINGTON. June 2(l.-Comninnd-er
Tilley, the naval governor of Samoa,
wns taken by Secretary Limg to the cabi
net meeting yesterday nnd made an inter
esting statement ou tlie conditions in Sa
moa. He pointed out the need of indus
trial tind agricultural Institutions iu Sa
moa. In view of tlie alarming extent of
ickness, particularly among young chil
'ren, It has been suggested that American
nurses would find Snmon an exceptionally
good field for their humane work. Com
mander Tilley says that in one respect
civilization lias worked to the detriment
8f the Sumonns. While- they lived with
out clothing they were hardy and free
from sickness, but since adopting clothing
they get wet from rain, contract colds,
and n number have developed consump
tion, a disease not known before.
Arnold Ilelles Found,
RT'KLINGTON, Yt., June 21. J. G.
Falcon, n Chicago diver, has just made
die greatest find of relics ever known on
Lake, Chnmplaiu. He visited the spot
where the schooner Royal Savage, com
manded by General Benedict Arnold, was
Mink in 1770 by the British. He secured
three gnu carriages nnd about (ill cannon
balls and shot. Two of the former will
he sent to the Smithsonian institution at
Washington, nnd the other has been
given to the city of Burlington, The
relics were found iu about .'10 feet of wa
ter, and the diver spent about two hours
ou the spot. At tlie time the schooner
was sunk the private papers of Benedict
Arnold were lost, nnd it is hoped that
they may be found.

anal visit of Christian Scientists to this
It y, the home of the Rev, Mary Baker
1J. Eddy, the discoverer and founder of

and gained unusual interest from the
fact that the visitors 'were privileged to
bo received by Mrs. Eddy at her estate,
Pleasant View. Fully .'1,000 were taken
:o Pleasant View to await Mrs, Eddy's
greeting, which was to be received at 2
j'clock. Promptly at this hour Mrs. Ed
iy appeared on the balcony and briefly
expressed her joy ut receiving so many

Ilrltlsh C'nsiiolty 1. 1st Henvy,
LONHOX, June 20. The cnmiulty lists
made public by the war ollice continue to
tdiow rather severe fighting in various
parts of South Africa that ure uot re
ported in the ordinary dispatches. This
is noticeably so with regard to the Zee-
rust position Iu Cape Colony. It also in
spires disquietude, which is added to by
the repeated looting of Jamestown In
npite of the proximity of a strong British
force at Aliwnl North.- It appears that,
Including the Boer prisoners and those In
the concentration camps, the cost of sup
porting some SO.Oikl Boers is today fulling
upon the British taxpayers.
