DEATH LIST GROWS. Every Hour Brings News ol Fresh Horrors From Texas. CORPSES LINE GALVESTON'S STREETS Vise City la Still Flooded—Vessels Blown Far Ileyoud High Water Murk—Wliole Families Are Wiped Out of Existence, HOUSTON, Sept. 11.-Richard Spil lane, a well known Galveston newspa per man, who reached Houston after a terrible experience, gives the following account of the disaster at Galveston: "The city is in ruins, and the dead will number probably 5,000. I am just from the city, having been commissioned by the mayor and citizens' committee to pet in touch with the outside world and appeal for help. Houston was the near; est point at which working telegraph instruments could be found, the wires as well as nearly ull the buildings between here and the gulf of Mexico being wrecked. "When I loft Galveston, the people wore organizing for the prompt burial of tho dead, distribution of food nnd all nec essary work after a period of disaster. "The wreck of Guiveston was brought about by a tempest so terrible that no words can adequately describe its in tensity and by a flood which turned the city into a raging sea. The weather bureau records show that the wind nt tained a velocity of 84 miles an hour when the measuring instrument blew away, so it is impossible to tell what was tho maximum. The storm began at 2 o'clock Saturduy morning. Previous to that a great storm had been raging in the gulf, and the tide was very high. The wind at first came from the north and was in direct opposition to the force from the gulf. While the storm in the gulf piled the water up on the beach side of the city the north wind piled the wa ter from the bay onto the bay part of tho city. "About noon it became evident that the city was going to be visited with disas ter. Hundreds of residences along the beach front were hurriedly abandoned, the families fleeing to dwellings in high er portions of the city. Every home was opened to the refugees, black or white. The winds were rising constantly, and it rained in torrents. The wind was so fierce that the rain cut like n knife. "By 3 o'clock the waters of the bay and gulf met, and by dark the entire city was submerged. The flooding of the elec tric light plant and tho gas plants left ttie city in darkness. Togo upon the streets was to court death. The wind was then at cyclonic velocity, roofs, cis terns, portions of buildings, telegraph poles and walls were fulling, and the noise of the wind and the crashing of the buildings were terrifying in the extreme. The wind and waters rose steadily front dark until 1 :4.*> o'clock Sunday morning. During all this time the people of Gal veston were like rats in traps. The high est portion of the city was four to five feet under water, while in the great ma jority of cases the streets were sub merged to a depth of ten feet. To leave a house was to drown. *To remain was to court death in the wreckage. Such a night of agony has seldom been equaled. Without apparent reason the waters suddenly began to subside at 1:45 a. in. Within 20 minutes they had gone down two feet, and before daylight the streets were practically freed of the flood wa ters. In the meantime the wind hud veered to the southeast. "Very few if any buildings escaped in jury. There is hardly a habitable dry house in the city. When the people wh > had escaped death went out at daylight to view the work of the tempest and the Hoods, they saw the most horrible sight i imaginable. In the three blocks from Avenue N to Avenue 1' in Treniont street I saw eight bodies. Four corpses were in one yard. "The whole of the business front for three blocks in from the gulf was strip ped of every vestige of habitation, the dwellings, the great bathing establish ments, the Olympia and every structure having been either carried out to sea or its ruins piled in a pyramid far into the town, according to the vagaries of tin tempest. "The first hurried glance over the city showed that the largest structures, sup posed to be the most substantially built, suffered the greatest. "The Orphans' home, Twenty-first street and Avenue M, fell like a house <>t cards. How many dead children and refugees are in the ruins could not b>- ascertained. "Of the sick iti St. Mary's infirmary, together with the attendants, only eight are understood to have been saved. The Old Woman's home, on Rosenberg avenue, collapsed, anil the Rosenberg sclioolhouse is a mass of wreckage. The Kail high school ii but an empty shell, crushed and broken. Every church in the city, with possibly one or two excep tions, is in ruins. "At the forts nearly all the soldiers ale reported dead, they having been ill temporary quarters which gave them n<> protection against the tempest or the flood. "No report has been received from the I'atholie Orphan asylum down the is land, but it seems impossible that il eoulil have withrtood the hurricane. If it fell, all the inmates were no doubt lost, for there was uo aid within a mile. "The bay front from end to end i* ill ruins. Nothing but piling and the wreck of great warehouses remain. The ele vators lost all their superworks. and their stocks are damaged by water. "The life ..iving stiillou at Fori Point was earii -i .may, the crew lieing swept across tin liiy II uuleH t>> Texas Pity. "I Ml w Captain Haines, and lie fold me that Ids wife and one of his crew were | drowned. "The shore at Texas City contains enough wreckage to rebuild a ell) Light l persous who were swept in-ro»t the la»y during the storiu were picked up there I alive. Five corpses were also picked I up.

The flood left slime about oni Inch deep over the whole city, and unless . fast progress is made in burying corpsei ' and carcasses of animals there is dangei of pestilence. "Some of the stories of the escapes art miraculous. William Nisbett, a cotton ■aan, was burled in the ruins of the Cot ton Exchange saloon and when dug out in the morning had no further injur; than a few bruised fingers. "Dr. S. O. Young, secretary of the Cot ton Exchange, was knocked senßelasa when his house collapsed, but was rerlY cd by the water and was carried ten blocks by the hurricane. "A woman who had just given birth to a child was carried from her home to a house a block distant, the men who wer» carrying her having to hold her higs above their heads, as the water was fivi feet when she was moved. "Many stories were current of house* falling and inmates escaping. Clarence N. Ousley, editor of The Evening Trib une, had his family and the families ol two neighbors in his house, when tho lower half crumbled and the upper part slipped down into the water. Not one in the house was hurt. "Of the Lavine family six out of seven are reported dead. Of the Burnett fam ily only one 1B known to have been saved. The family of Stanley Q. Spencer, whu met death in the Cotton Exchange sa loon, Unreported to be dead. "The Mistrot House, in the west end. was turned into a hospital. All of the regular hospitals of the city were available. Of the new Southern Paciti works little remains but the piling. Halt a million feet of lumber was carried away, and Engineer Koschke says as fai as the company is concerned it might as well start over again. "Eight ocean steamers were torn from their moorings and stranded in the bay. The Kendall Castle was carried over the flats, Thirty-third street wharf to Texas City, and lies in the wreckage of tha Inman pier. The Norwegian steamei Gyller is stranded between Texas City and Virginia Point. An ocean liner was swirled around through the West bay, crashed through the bay bridges and is now lying in a few feet of water near tho wreckage of the railroad bridges. The steamship Taunton was carried across Pelican point and is stranded about ten miles up the East bay. The Mallory steamer Alamo was torn from her wharf and dashed upon Pelican flats and against the bow of the British steamer Red Cross, which hud previously been hurled there. The stern of the Alamo is stove in, and the bow of the Red Cross is crushed. "Down the channel to the jetties two other ocean steamships lie grounded. Some schooners, barges uud smaller craft are strewn bottom side up along the slips of the piers. The tug Louise of the Hous ton Direct Navigation company is a wreck. It will take a week to tabulate the dead and the missing and to get any thing near an approximate idea of the monetary loss. It is safe to assume that one-half of the property of the city is wiped out and that one-half of the resi dents have to face absolute poverty." M'KINLEY TALKS BRIEFLY. El Itonte to His Niece's Wedding He MakeH a Speech. CUMBERLAND, Md., Sept. 11.- Presldent McKinley was given au ova tion here and after repeated calls went on the platform of his special car and spoke briefly to a large crowd which had congregated upon the announcement that lie would pass through the city on u regular Baltimore and Ohio train. The president and party were en route to Somerset, Pa., to attend the weddiug ol Miss Mabel McKinley, the president's niece. The president spoke as follows: "My fellow citizens, I assure you that this call is very much unexpected by me I had no idea that so many of my fellow citizens of Cumberland would assemble here to givo me such a cordial greeting in the few brief moments that I stopped with you. I am glad to know that nt matter what may he our politics in this country we are all for the United Stater and all for the dear old flag wherever it floats and determined, men of the north and men of the south, to stand by th< brave soldiers and sailors who are main taining our standard in the distant ter ritory belonging to the United States. 1 thank you once again for this more than generous greeting and bid you all good by."

Treasurer of Republican National Committee Enthusiastic. He Believes That McKlnley Prosper ity Will Lead to a Great Repabll caa Trlumpli. About the outlook for McKlniey's election Cornelius N. Bliss, treasurer of the Republican national committee, speaks enthusiastically in some re spects of the unprecedented record that is being made this summer In our busi ness and commercial world, and does not find in that any reasonable ground for the fear that apathy bred of over confidence is going to prove the great est of the dangers the Republican cam paign managers must face. Mr. Bliss, perhaps, is better qualified to Bpeak of business conditions and the influence of politics upon business than CORNELIUS N. BLISS, any other man in either party who is now giving attention to political mat ters. He is actively identified with one of the greater banks of New York, al though his chief business brings him into close touch with Important manu facturing interests, whose business is by no means a domestic one exclusive ly. Mr. Bliss makes note of the fact that although this is a presidential year, yet so far the influence of politics upon business has been inappreciable, ex i cepting possibly in one or two rather unimportant directions. For It Is of no particular consequence to legitimate business interests that the record of the sale of stocks in Wall street is just now very small. He notes that our exports of all kinds, and especially of manufactured goods, continue to show both actual and proportionate increases over the records of other years. He notices that on the whole the volume of business done in the United States, as indicated by Clearing House reports, is excel lent, and furthermore observes with much satisfaction that the conditions in the financial markets, not only in New York but elsewhere in the United States, show the tranquility that does not come from apathy, but from pros perity, that Is based in great measure upon confidence. AS TO FALSE PRETENSE. Senator Dolliver, of lowa, Sizes Up Democratic Orators. He Hefers to Tlllninn'M Kvlill.ltlon of lllntaelf nt the Kinisiis City Con vention. Senator Dolliver. of lowa, in a recent speech, criticized the Democratic party for what he termed Its attempt to "cover up the only sincere and settled conviction which it has by pushing to the front a lot of cheap orators on the subject of civil liberty, and, continuing, said: "The world Is so arranged that every masquerade of false pretenses, trying to do business on a high moral scale, sooner or later comes to a point along SENATOR DOLLIVER. ita line of march where It tan distinct ly hear the laughter of gods nnd men. Such a point, 1 think, was reached at Kansas City when Senator Tillman waa selected, on account of his voice, to read the liedarutlon of Independence, with Its sublime precepts about the equality of men and the ultimate basis of hu man government I'ntll Mr Bryan shall stand up somewhere before the American people nnd in an audible volte ulier one word of manly disap proval of the crime against civil liber ty, which In the undisputed Democratic communities of the I'nlted States has left ten MillitMM of people helpless ami outiast before the l«w I for one Intend to treat hi* det larattou on the subject of equal rights as unfit for the respect of the American people " Senator I will vet then eultiglied Pres ident Mi Klnley, ami In conclusion said ; "Whatever danger lies 111 our pAlh however rough the road which we must ' travel, lei us keep our faith strong In our country ami In our cooutryiueti I. el us lie sure ( Isml there Is a guidance In Ihe affairs of men higher lhan our pour human wisdom which will make the dewu of the eppro.li iilrig century radiant wllh th« pinmis* of civil liber ty not oiil> fur the helpless racee wuh In our own Portiere, but fur the scalier- ! eil million# ihiniighwut all out pne seeeioua In ail the sews " BROUGHT BACK ' GOODjtEPORTfc What Governor Stone and General Seeder Learned Traveling. REPUBLICANS ABE CONFIDENT. The MeKlnley Administration la Btronv With the People, and the Party Is nound to Triumph In No vember. With the opening of the political campaign in Pennsylvania Interest Is revived in the personnel of the candi dates on the Republican state ticket. While the nominees of the Republic can party are all men who have made their mark in the world and who have earned recognition from their party the candidates on the Democratic state ticket, with possibly one excep tion, are emphatically unknown men. It is doubtful whether 1 per cent of the Democratic voters in the com monwealth can name the candidates on the Democratic ticket. A MAN OF THE PEOPLE. Senator Edmund B. Hardenbergh, who is the Republican standard bearer for auditor general, was born at Wil- Bonville, Wayne county, in this state, on July 31, 1846. He was educated at the public schools and at Eastman's Business college, In Poughkeepsie, N. Y. After leaving school he went Into railroading, and for some time past has been in the employ of the Erie Railway company as traveling instruc tor. For the past 15 years Mr. Harden bergh has been active and prominent In the pulitics of his section of the state at large. He served as a mem ber of the lower house of the legisla ture during the sessions of 1885 and 1887, and in 1894 was elected to the state senate, being re-elected t<v that body In 1898, after a bitter factional light. He has served as a delegate In a number of Republican state conven tions and in the Republican national convention Uttß96, and was chairman of the Wayne county Republican com mittee for the years 1891 and 1892. He Is well known among organized work lngruen of the commonwealth and has figured as a champion of labor at Har rlsburg. A NATIONAL CHARACTER. The venerable Oalusha A. Grow, who was renominated for congressman-at large by the Republican state conven tion, Is a national character. He was born In Ashford (now Eastford),Wind ham county, Conn., on Aug. 31, 1823. His father died when he was 3 years old, and his mother, with her six chil dren, removed to Susquehanna county, Pa., in May, 1834. There young Grow worked on a farm until he began prep aration at the Franklin academy for Amherst college, from which Institu tion he graduated in 1844. Three years later he was admitted to the bar, and in 1850 began his public career by be ing elected the successor of David Wll mot In the house of representatives. He waa elected from the same dis trict for six conaecutlve terms, the firat three timeß as a Free Soil Democrat, the last three times as a Republican, but in 1862 lost his seat through a re districting of the state. In July, 1361, he was eiected speaker of the house. He returned to congress in 1894, when he was elected to fill the vacancy caus ed by the death of Gen. William Lilly, congressman-at-large, and was re elected on the ticket at large In 1896. PHILADELPHIA WAS RECOGNIZED Philadelphia's commercial intereata and sterling Republicanism waa recog nised by the Republican state conven tion In the nomination of Robert H. Foerderer, of Philadelphia, for the other place on the ticket for congreaa man-at-large. Robert H. Foerderer was born in Frankenhousen, Germany, on May 16. 1860. His parents, when he was an Infant, came to America and located In Philadelphia. They aent the lad to the public schoola and afterwards to a private academy. At the age of 16 years he began hla business career as an apprentice In his father's morocco factory, entering the plant as a humble beginner, nnd took his chancea of pro motion with the other worklngmeti After mastering all the detalla of the trade he eventually went into the business on his own account. He is now the owner of one of the largest manufactories of glased kid In the world. Mr. Foerderer is a director In several financial Inatitutiona, and be la also Identified with some of the leading cluba. He has never held any public ofllce. Hia thorough familiarity with the needa of Philadelphia naturally directed attention to him aa an avail able man to repreaent the state in the national laclalature. ll* has alwaya been a atalwart Republican and a lib eral contributor to the party organis ation Hla candidacy when flrat pro posed received cordial support from many membera of the Union League, the Manufacturer' club and the com mercial and maritime exchanges and a strong sentiment In hla behalf waa quickly awakened.
