Thin Is the last day for clearing away the effects of the flood by the civil authorities. Te-morrow the state takes held of the stupendous work of restoring the alley tells condition be fore the flood, and all work done after to day will be under the nnpervlsien of den. Hastings. The weary and dreary succession of rainy days slnce the tloed continues and the day broke amidst a drizzling rain. Wkh but a ingle exception everyday here since the deluge has opened with rain, but while the rain has made the work mere disagreeable it has had some geed result. But for almost continuous rains the river at this point would have become tw low and shallow te float away the debris that Is fast being loesenod and thrown Inte the river. The continued full stream has ren dered the work of gelling the wreckage away from the slene bridge much less arduous and much mere spoedy. Agnln rain Ims sen ed te cool the nlr and teniMfclie het niys of the sun. Had there been such weather as prevail! yesterday nncrnoeu, het and exhausting, it is le le lleved'by nmny that It would have been impossible te continue the work of search ing for the dead. Kven as It is, Ihe fumes nrb.lng from decomposing bodies of per sons and animals are most oll'enslve and nt times almost overpowering. Search for the dead continue, and In all sections and dliovlleiis bodies uie being found. The willing and hard w eik tug volunteer laborers begun te leave early this morning, and the train leaving here at 8 a. in. leek away ever 400. This Is merely Ihe begin ning of the great oulpeiiiing that will set in te-morrow. Among theso who left this morning vv ero ene hundred and llfly laborers from the Unit man steel company, Ueuver Fulls. They said they would net work for $1.50 for iien. Hastings or anybody else. It is Iho general opinion here that Gen. Hastings has made a mistake in etfurlug less te the men than paid at present ($i) and that the result will be a teuiKrary cessation of vv erk. One of the first things le be dene by Gen. Hustings will be the dlschurgoef the MM policemen new doing duty here. In this connection thore is likely te be much grumbling and hard talk. It has been de cided that they should net be paid out of the relief fund, but that the county, whose sheriff deputized thorn, should pay for their services. All inea employed by Heeth A Klinn vv Hi be paid oil' te-day and discharged, and transportation furnished for as many nsde net w Ish te work for the stule at $1.50 per day. The channel of the river abeve the stone bridge Is being fast cleared, und while com paratively little Impression has been made en the gi e it mass of debris neir the bridge, the results Hleng the channel are very marked. The Cambria Iren company's weiks and yards show this morning the best results thus far seen of the hard w erk toward the semblance of what they once weie.

The main point of attack by the workmen is Main street, which was piled high w Itli rubbish. A tmce of nearly 1,000 men has loeu at w erk here for nine days, and, though faithful ell'ortshave been nude from the lirst, a passaue way has net yet been cleared tlueugli. This will give some Idea of the task betme the men who have undertaken te clear the city.

Bodies are constantly being taken from the debris en Mulu street, irein river iiKiyiiit-iiixuniiiiuiu the ruins of prlvate residences.

A MILLION 1'HOM THK STATI!. It was definitely decided en Monday that the state shall undertake the work ofclear efclear iug away the debris in the Cenemaiigh valley at Johnstown ; that the necessary funds shall come from the state treasurer, who is te be given a bend of indemnity, and that no extra session of the legislature shall be called. The work is te begin en Wodnesday.atul will be under the direction of Adjutant General Hastings, who will carrv out the plans of the state beard of health. These important elnts were determined upon at a conference held en Monday be tween Governer lleuver, who came direct from Johnstown, and Mayer Filler, of Philadelphia. After the conference the governor stated that he had erdensl a contractor named O'Donuell te place 2,000 men at work' en the ruins. The governor was anxious thut the public should understand that the state was only exercising police povvers In removing "a nuisance prejudicial te health, and that none of the money was te be spent In the charitable work of relieving the dostltute and rebuilding their houses. The cost of the work, the govor gevor gover nor said, hud beeu estimated at from $150, 000 le f 1,000,000, and he was sure that It would be no mero than the cost of an extra session of the Legislature. The money will be expended under the direction of the slute iMiuril of health, which considers that the pollution of the Ceucmnugh river seri ously endangers the health of the commu nities farther down the stream. Beth the governor anil the mayor stattsl thut there would be no trouble in securing an indem nity bend for State Treasurer Hart of $1, $1, $1, oeo'ooo, or for w hatever sum may be spent. The guarantee which w 111 be sigmsl by the bondsmen of the governor for the money needed lu the work of the state opens with the statement that. .lames A. Heaver has given his liend te William It. Hart, state treasurer, in the sum of en million dollars, conditioned for the payment of whatever moneys may be advanced by him for the purpose of clearing the streams and abating public nuisances which threaten the health and safety of the people, caused by the late Heeds, And as theie Is net sulliclent time le as semble the Legislature, the signers each guarantee the payment of the bend te the extent of $5,0e0 6ii condition that the guar antee will net be binding until two hun dred have signed, and that If mero sign the liability shall be proert(onately reduced, the liability le be ter a pre rata share of whatever amount may lie. cxiciided, net exceeding the penalty "of the bend and the guarantee te be only binding in case the Legislatuie fails te make appropriation for the work. The governor will go te Johns town te give his crseuul attention te the work which will begin en Wednesday. " Till! I'Air.-lOU) AT JOHNSTOWN. The Pittsburg Dnjxilch reHJrts that President Hels-rts. of the Pennsylvania railroad, was ut Johnstown en Sunday in consultation with Superintendent Pugh, General Manager Pitcairn und ether olll elll olll clalseftho read ever its condition. He is said.te have been called out hySuiwuiutou hySuiwuiuteu dent Pitcairn, who finds the reconstruction needed between .lelinstnwii anil Altneua. It is no wonder thut Siieriiiteiulent Pit cairn steed aghast ut the prospect. The exigency Is extranidinury, and is rendered doubly serious by the topography of IJie read between Johnsten n and Altoenu. It is net like rebuilding seven ruined bridges and laying truck upon level ground. The Inaccessibility of the read intensifies the dilHculties, and thedcstruetleu of the loud bed is the most serious blew of ull. Years have been eendcd in rendering the reaiN bud solid, and its reconstruction uleug precipitous edges of the mountains will take time. Kvery feet of the roadway bus te be put In order se ss te enable materials te be transported te the scene us fast us w anted. Kven after the temporary work has been completed a large force of men will bout work for mouths befeie the former "limited time" can be attained, with safety. In Johnstown itself Ihere is' till Infinite amount of vveik te be done. Although the stenu viaduct that breasted Ihe flood Is apparently ull right ami Is be ing used for construction tialu trati-qvorta-tlen, a Pennsylvania read ougluecr hjvs the bridge must be rebuilt eventually, as it has been permanently weakened by the tremendous strain it w ithstoed. The Cambria iron company, the Gautier steel company, the Johnstown steel rail company uud'the immense manufacturing interests in thn vicinity of Ceuemaiigli have notified President Roberts that they leek te the Pennsylvania ruiliead for Im mediate transportation of new machinery and a renewal at the earliest moment ihm sible of switch relation with the main line, os contracts involving net thousands but millions depend absolutely Un the Peun svivaula railroad for fulfillment, Isith In shipment of materials and finished work. Ne time is being lest by the manufacturers und resumption of their work must be antedated by the railroad. Seme idea of the gravity of the situation has dun nisi upeu the elllclals, and there Is going te lie the greatest hustling en record In the Cenemuugh valley within the next few days.

The committee of the school lieard en high school commencement met en Mon day evening and decided te have the com mencement exercises in the court house 011 Friday, June 2S. This conclusion was reached as the only alternative the com cem com mlttee had te escajie paying Manager Wil liamson, of the epera house, what was deemed an exorbitant lent. The school beard never paid in any previous year mero than $10 for the rent of the opera house for commencement day, which included the pay of the ushers ; and w hen Dr. ltaub.the sub-committee en hull, reported te Chairman Marshall thut Mr. Williamson asked $05, the committee was culled tegether for consultation. After Dr. ltaub's first talk with Mr. Williamson, the hitler came down a trifle and agreed te furnish the eKra house for $50, providing the heard would pay the ushers anil any extra work the janitor would have te de. This would run the cost te ever $00. The committee called upon Mr. William son en Monday night and statist te him they could net pay that price, but he would net yield 0110 leta and uppoured te be iudltiereut whether the opera house was selected or net. He said he knew that Mr. Yecker hud furnished the epera house for less than $.r0and ex pense of ushers. The couimUtee Informed Mr. Williamson that the commencement exercises would be held lu the court house and ill that conclu sion the committee were unanimous. Before deciding te take the court heuse (which, by the way, Is furnished free) all the members of the school beard thut could Imi seen were consulted and they were unanimously of the opinion that the court house should be selected, if for no ether reason te let Mr. Williamson knew thut if hu has the only opera house In the city there are ether rooms with accommodations w hich can be secured lu an emergency. The court heuse will lie handsomely decorated for the occasion, its ventilation is better tliuii at the 0umi house und with the extra scats that can be placed lu the large court room the accommodations will be ample for the throng that usually attend these interesting exercises.

Graphic Story Ity .1. II. Ki-cmer of the Deluge en the Mountains en the Ju niata and Along the Susciiliauna. The following are the principal points of a long letter written for the Carlisle Senti nel by J, Bralnard Kremcr, of that town : Business railed me te the village of Irvena, in Clearfield county, this stale, which place I reached at about A o'clock p. m. en Thursday In the midst of n dashing rain. About ten o'clock It again rained, or rather, poured, and lulled by the patter I slept soundly until five o'clock, when I was awakened by the landlord saying. "If you want breakfast coine down quickly or the fleer will be under water." Leeking out I saw men wading alsmt, breast deep, through the streets, driving te high ground horses, cuttle and hogs. Coming down stairs 1 learned that the town had experienced several floods, but as the hotel steed some fWe feet above the street, Ihe water had never exceeded a depth of fourteen Inches in the building. This quieted my fears, and as It would have been exceedingly dangerous te have attempted wading or swimming te shore though the floating legs and debris, I decided te stay under cover, and sat dew 11 te breakfast. Had I known that thirty eight hours would elapsu liefere 1 again could sit down at a table I would have eaten a heartier meal, but the little appetite 1 had was entirely dlsslated by feeling the water creeping up through the fleer under my feet, and laying lu a geed supply of cigars before the olllce wus closed, I gathered together my traps and went up te the second fleer. The ruin, which hud net censed te fall slncu 10 o'clock the night before (nor did it cease at any time during the whole of Friday and Friday night), seemed te grew In violence, and by 8 o'clock the water lu Ihe principal streets was eight feet deep, our seuudinir roil show lug three feel lu thu hotel hall. By neon it had reached a depth of twelve feet, from which (Kitut It did net vary much during my stay, rising and falling as obstructions were falling or swept alxive us. The current past the hotel was very rapid, carrying with It enormous quantities of legs, stumps, and ether heavy dehrls such us is found lua newly cleared forest. The scene was wild, grandly wild; Ihe rushing current, resistless In Its force, the buildings within sight,,, comprising three streets, submerged te their second floors; the lowing of cuttle, curried by main force te the uper floors of the barns, the squeal ing of hogs, either tied uhii rafts or swim ming wearily hour by hour In the quiet water covering their accustemwd tiens, the piercing calls of men fiem heuse 10 heuse, gathered at the windows of which were the pale faces of women and the frightened forms of children, and with the never ceasing sound of pouring rain, all lending new aid te the scene which while grand, was fraught with concern te these of us who helplessly looked from our windows hearing ever and agulu the heavy floating legs striking resounding blows against the side of our hotel, break ing through the windows and rebounding from the (sirtltlens belew us. or currying away, piece by piece, the portico suriound surieund lug the building, knowing the w hlle thnt there was net a Wat In the vllluge, or as tar as could be learned, in the vicinity. The small steres and the back extensions of the dwellings ure beginning te move from their foundations and we are iirepuriug te make u rail of the tables and doers when a shout from many voices is heard en the hillside, and several men are seen running down from the railroad bearing a large beat which they have brought 011 a hand cur from a distance of live miles. The work of rescue begins and seen Ihoeutlie IMipulutlen is safely en the hillside. Frem ene heuse wus curried, through the second sterv window, a woman sick unto death ; us the beat passed by our window the shapeless fenit resting 011 a mattress mid protected from the lulling rain by heavy blankets, a silence fell en ull und even the Voices of the rough boatmen w ere hushed and the rearing of the terienl seemed less loud. She was saved from a watery giuv e even though her hours wero uuuiliurcd, for seen the heuse fiem which she w us cat rlcd swerved, shook, mid then Joined In the motley pioccsslen le sure destruction be bo be eow. A shout, n crash, und the new Iren bridge, a new structure across the Clear field creek, breaks loose and swings down stream u shapeless mess, and the railroad bridge seen fellows It. Our hotel, being considered the strongest building in the settlement, receives no attention from the boatmen until ull ure carried from the smaller and weuker dwellings. As w e be bo be ceme Isolated and coinanlenless we be come coneerned und Ihe movements of the bout are watched w 1th keen and Impatient Interests. At last, ut about 4 o'clock the beat comes, and 0110 by one we step into It from the reef of the Isu-k building, some of us net uccustomed te walking 011 water soak is! sloping risifM, taking an Involuntary bath holere taking our seats. Lauded safely we get the news: "The whole country u round under water; railroad bridges ami trucks washed uvvuy; the stores short of previsions, accommodations only te be had lu the church; the lumber men und miners gathered 011 the shore ; whisky lu seme way hud been obtained, and likely we will have warm times before morning." This and the continuing rain, giving premise yet of 11 hlghar flood, de termined me te get away, and finding n boatman I made the perilous trip te the ether shore and wulkcd two miles te Dell Dell weed, en the Pennsylvania read, where I caught a train made up ut Alloeua. This train was stepcd near Mlllerstowu.en the Juniata by u broken culvert, which wus net rehired until eleven o'clock the next dny. All night the ruin fell lu torrents.

Here we took u run 011 the trucks, wondering ut the iiiuny varie ties of laud Insects which were making their wuv le higher ground, netleeably the spiders In numbers and varie ties almost Incredible. We went te u farm house for supper and lusscd another uncomfortable night, varied by soundings showing that the water wus yet rising until it v as within thirteen Inches of the fleer of our reach, until midnight when the theering word was passed that " it is going down. ,r Our progress was alew, giving, ample Ume te pett th destruction by the way.

Duucanueu presented almost a gala day appearance, for the lull having commenced the streets were full of young men and girls being rowed from place te place, The villages en the way and low lying farm houses all suffered. At numerous pi sees the danger le our train vvus much greater than me at the time knew, our conductor having le decide en taking a known risk te avoid a possible greater evil behind. We finally reached Harrlsburg at about 3 o'clock lu the afternoon, weary and nerve less.
