warning to restrain overconfident Americans
from flocking Into Cuba without resources.
General Wood has made this a mutter of
special representations to Secretary hoot.
He reports that there are quite 11 number of
such Americans completely stranded In
Cuba, whom he is unable to relieve. His
suggestion was that the War Department
authorl.-.e him to ship them bank to the Vnl
ted States on the army transports, but, so
far, Secretury Hoot has not boon able to see
how he can do this. Aocordlug to the uJ
vioes reeelveU by the department, Cuba is
no place for'a man without mouey. With
some cupltal there Is lurge opportunity fot
returns, but, otherwise, even willing work
Ingtneu and clerks cannot secure utnploy
muut, and must soon come to grief. Secre
tary lloot uient oned the Into of some of the
Amecicaus who had gone to Cuba as parts
ot alleged "colonies" us particularly bard,
and if it shall appear proper to extend relief
ut ulJ, it may be he will authorise all ll-ose
who aro iu tiering In thuse. colonies to b
brought home iu the transports.

MILLIONS OF DAMAGE.

the Johnstown Flood and Carried Death
and Destruction In Its Cnnraa Wholn
Families Gone.
Austin. Tex., (Spoolul.) As tha result of
a flood that has never been paralleled in this
country except by tho Johnstown disaster,
Austin, tho capital olty of Texas, lostl,400,
000 worth of municipal property. Tho lower
portion of the nlty was inundated, fully 100
houses along tho river hnvnbeen swept away
nnd 10 lives aro known to have been lost,
nnd messages from up nnd down tho river
report the drowlng of 32 persons In all.
The flood Is one without a parallel In the
history of the Stat", oxeeedlng In point of
danger and in Keotlnnnl losses the great
ltrszor. Bottom flood of last spring.
It began raining on tho watershed of tho
Colorado River as far north as tho Concha
Blvnr, somo 1U5 miles north of hero, on Wed
nesday night, and never ceased until Satur
day morning. From midnight until rtny
ilght so terrific wa tho downpour that
creeks were transformed Into surging tor
rents, and rivers were swollen to 11 width ol
a mile. It I estimated thut within an hour
fnur Inches of ruin fell In this immediate
vicinity. By daylight It became evident thai
the hltuntloti wa serious. The river began
rising three feet an hour, nnd by 10 o'clock
it hud Increased to four feet.
The situation nt tho city's power station,
above the city, became s"rious from the very
lli-st.
The Immense dam spinning the river 1,200
feet h'lig and 00 feet high, with the power
house aud three-quarter of n million ol
dollars' worth of muehltiery located along
side was threutened from the vory first. The
water roso so rapidly that the power-house
would bo Inundated within a short time.
Tho surging torrent bore on its crest tons
and tons of trees, houses and debris by the
wagon load. Ml this Immense mass was
piled upon the dam. very rapidly forming 11
solid mass VI) feet high and 1,000 feet thick,
over which the water surged and fretted be
fore taking Its CO-foot plunge.
So ferritin was tho strain that It wns evi
dent that the dam must give way.
At ll.lfi exactly the crash came, and ff
slice of granite 8 feet thick, 25 feet in depth
nd 500 feet long rolled out of the middle ol
the dam nud Into the river below as though
it bad been prlied out with a crowbar. Thi
released ' tho immense quantity of debris,
treos und houses and thu vast volume ol
water, and within a thrice it was bellowinp
ou Its way down the river, onrrying death
and destruction In its wake.
Just below the dam were located eight
fnalllca of poor people, numbering som
five ami sl.x apiece, who camped and fished
for their living. All of these, disappeared
with the breaking of the dam and have 110'
beou heard of since.
Light men standing on the edge of tin
river when the dam broke were caught nni!
swept Into the torrent, but were rescued 1
quarter of a mile down tho river more dcm.'
than alive. In addition to this list then
were) eight of th employes cnught in tin
power-house und drowned llko so muny ran
