The l.eertslatlve Committee 11 1 Work Shnmoklu To-dny. The members of the Legislative Investigat ing Committee, appointed to make inquiry as to the condition of the anthracite mine workers, arrived at Sbamokin last evening. They began their first session there this morning at 0:00 o'clock. It is Jlkoly they will remain there bnt one day. The Sergcant-at-Arms says the committee will visit Pottavllle to-morrow, unless the present program is changed. At tho latter place an effort will be made to ascertain, from the officials of the company, such In formation on the subject of mining coal which the committee failed to secure -by examina tion of the employes here and at Mahanoy City. Constable Michael O'Leary, of Sbamokin, yesterday served the subpoenaes, nirioug tho number were a dozen or so miners from lit. Cnrmel. The witnesses are reluctant about appearing before the committee, as they are compelled, since the Governor vetoed tho bill compensating the witnesses, to appear at then- own expense. Tins they cannot afford to do. The members of the committee, however, fare much better. A Hnzletoa oxchango guys the members are paid as follows: "First, $10 per day as membem of the Legislature ; secondly, their expenses, which means flO moic and, thirdly, 20 cents per milo for every mile traveled. From this it will readily be seen tint there is no destitution, so far as the iudivldUHl members of this committee are concerned, and considering that this com mittee returns to llarrisburg about once a week. It Is safe to presume that they earn on an average of $80 per day." Whitklock's Siiob Store for mcu's fino Russet (kid) cloth top shoes. Stylish and ebeap. 4-2S-U IWect of Doboo's Ulcotlon.

At sunrise yesterday morning ' a mighty wall of water, from six to elsht feet high and and a mile wide, broke upon West Guthrie without warning, crushing houses, sweeping away property and drowning many people. Every move able thing was swept before the wave, which passed on ftito the Canadian valley with resistless force, wreaking terrible destruction to life and prop erty wherever It reached. The flood Is supposed to have been caused by a cloudburst, supplemented by heavy rains. A heavy rain began falling yes terday afternoon. Dozens of lives are known to have been lost, how many may not be known for weeks. Hundreds of houses were wrecked, for miles farms were com pletely ruined, bridges and tracks were washed out and railway traffic In every direction Is at a standstill. The efforts of rescuing parties have In many cases proved In vain. Many persons floated down stream before they could be reached, and their fate Is unknown. Others passed the night In trees In midstream or perohed on housetops. The property loss Is placed at some thing near $1,000,000. Fully two-thirds of the victims were colored. Business is suspended in Guth rie, the stores and banks being closed. Aa thorough an organization for re lief as is possible has been made, but all aid has been necessarily retarded by the confused condition of things. It will be Impossible to explore the houses until the water subsides, as many of them are submerged. As dark ness gathered over the sceno many overturned houses were seen far out In the flood, but It could not be learned whether their occupants escaped. The river Is 80 feet above Its ordinary level. The Cottonwood river, ordinarily a small stream that winds between steep banks In West Guthrie, was bank full from a heavy rain on Tuesday and Tuesday night, but no alarm had been felt. About 6 o'clock, however, water from a cloudburst above had added to the already high stream, and the flood was soon sweeping through West Guthrie, a section populated mostly by colored people. Those who saw tho first wall of water said that It was about 18 feet high, spreading entirely across the valley. The first wave was j followed by others In quick succession, until the whole settled Into a bank of water from six to eight feet high. Many persons had already begun carrying their household goo an to places of safety, but few had more thnn one trip made when they were forced to flee for their lives before the raging torrent. The main supply pipe of the water works system burst where It crossed the Cottonwood, In the southern part of the city, and all the water In the reservoirs poured Into the river. In the southwestern part of tho city a long arm of land is formed by tne winding of the river. On this land lived hundreds of negroes. During tho night the bridge leading across the river to the main section had been swept away. The people were absorb ed In watching the rising waters yes terday when the flood from the reser voirs came down In a solid wall, cut ting off the people from escape. They fled from their homes to the higher portion of the newly formed Island. When the first shock of the disaster was over the more fortunate on the island immediately began to help the nearest to them, while In Guthrie proper prompt steps were taken at rescue. As tne nouses, nam 3 ana other effects began to drift down stream, each freighted with one or more human beings, boats or rafts shot here and there from the shore, and desperate efforts were made to rescue the people. Improvised rafts were quickly thrown together and started out Into the mad stream. Be fore many of them had been propelled a couple of yards from shore they were twisted and broken by the waters, and the would be rescuers thrown Into the stream. Half a dosen rescuers were drowned before those they had tried to save had been reached. Qua Piatt, business- manager of the Quthrie Leader, and George Willis, a merchant tailor, swam the river at the risk of their lives and secured a boat by whleh a number of persons ware saved. A negro woman with a babe in her arms desperately tried to steady her self In a tree top, calling the while for help. She grew weak, and the baby slipped Into the water and was drown ed. She was finally rescued, and said her family of six had been lost. A woman wading from home with her babv on her head was seen to go under, and a man swimming the chan nel to reach four women and a baby In a tree was carried down stream. Two women and a child were carried away on a bridge further down stream, and one man and two women in plain sight of shore were on a house roof when It went to piece. They .all per ished. An old negro woman was seen clinging to a housetop. The building soon turned over and she was drowned. The wife and five children of Weeley MeGIll, colored, were drowned In theft home. Thtt men, Walter Olds, John Voji- dusen ana Kueens 0111a, sought to rescue an old man from a tree. Their raft struck an overhanging tree, and they barely saved their lives by ollmb Ing Into another tree. They were finally rescued on a rope sent to them by means of a shotgun and cord. Two men rescued a small stern wheel pleasure boat and started to the rescue of a half dozen men and women lodged In a tree. The persons were res cued amid the cheers of the spectators. Tho cable holding. the oraft finally brake and It was carried down stream, but landed safely. Adjutant General Jameson, of the territorial militia, narrowly escaped with his family. e was forced to wide and lead his horse, with hi family in the buggy. John Metz, aged BE, was capsized while trying to save a woman who lank before he reached her. Metz him self was barely rescued. George Owens, Attorney Teague Ray and Dick Pear son were thrown Into the water while rytng to save some people, and Owens was drowned. Last night 40 or EO people could be seen clinging to trees and roofs of buildings, but could not b reached. The strength of many failed them be fore morning. The fate of many others, who are known to have been carried down stream, may not be known for several days. It Is Impossible to get any definite news from the hundreds of rescued people on the bluffs west of the city. Those who escaped are rushing fran tically about In search of missing ones. The river Is now going down rapidly. When darkness settled over the city last night the wildest stories of loss of life were afloat. The estimates ran all tho way from 50 to 250 persons drown ed. While the larger figure Is undoubt edly an exaggeration, It Is known that the loss of life will reach, if not ex ceed, tho lesser figure. It Is believed that loss of life has also occurred Bouth of Guthrie, along the Cottonwood river. Many farmhouses in that dis trict arc reported to have been swepl away. fl STREET RIOT AT GlWlflLTiE Was Precipitated by the Breaking: ot a Window. ONE MAN WAS BADLY MALTREATED.

He is a gentleman who has raado a mark in life by his thrift and energy and to-day conducts one of tho leading stores of Shenandoah, a fact which attests his fitness for office. Iu his canvas for dolegatos ho has becomo very popular and did much effectivo work during his brief visit to town. Special to Evening IIebalp. Giuahdvili.r, April 20'. At about nine o'clock last night a riot took place on second street, known as "The Bowery." in which one of the participants, Patrick McLain, of Itappahannock, was almost killed. The injured man was passing the saloon of William Kumkawicsin nn intoxicated condi tion wbeu he staggered against and shattered one of the large panes of glass in the saloon window. Mcldin's friends say that Im mediately after several Poles rushed from the saloon to the street and attacked him. Mo Lain was beaten into insensibility. The crowd that had gathered grew Indignant over the continued beating of the young man and a general assault upon the saloon fol lowed. The Poles were driven back into tho place amid a great shower of stones and at least a dozen shots wera fired, but no one was struck by any of the bullets. When the police arrived and succeeded in disbursing the crowd McLain was found in sensible on the pa-ement in front of the saloon. Dr Monaghan was summoned. Ho found that the victim bad a deep cut ovor one of his eyes and an ugly gash behind tho right ear. McLain was still unconscious at noon to-day, but Dr. Mouaghuu expresses the opinion that the victim will recover. The place where the riot occurred gives ample evldeuco of tho encounter. There is not n pane of glass in the saloon building that Is uot damaged and like evidences are displayed by many of tlio buildings in the vicinity. The panes of glas were shattered by stones and revolver shots. The police succeeded in arresting five of tho Poles, including the saloonk eper. They were put under $600 bail, each, by Justice Kissinger Tho saloonkeeper threatens counter suit. Ho claims that the first break ing of glass was not due to an accident. He states that he and three customers were iu the saloou when a large stone was hurled through the window of the placo from out side.
