The Secretary of State called on the Presi- dent to-day with the British minister, who con- veyed, from the queen of England, her sym- pathy for the people of America in the great flood disaster that has swept over a part of the country. The message was delivered infor- mally by word of mouth. The President, in reply, said: THE PRESIDENT’S REPLY. Mr, Minister: This message of sympathy from her majesty, the queen, will be accepted by our people as another expression of her own generous character, as well as of the friendli- hess and good-will of her people. The disasters which have fallen upon several communities in the state of Pennsylvania, while extreme and full of the most tragic and horrifying incidents, have fortunately been limited in territorial ex- tent. The generosity of our own citizens will romptly lessen to these stricken pees every loss that is not wholly irretrievable; and these, the sympathy of the queen and the English eople, will help to assuage. Will you, Mr. inister, be pleased tu convey to queen the sincere of the American people, Look Out for the Cyclone. The Secretary of War has received the fol- lowing note of warning from “Prof.” A. J. De Voe, a meteorologist, whose weather laboratory is situated at Hackensack, N.

The long delay in the promulgation of the results in the Armes court-martial case came to an end this morning when the following memorandum was issued from the office of the adjutant-general: “In the case of Capt. George A. Armes, U, 8. A., retired, |sentenced by general court - martial |to be dismissed from the service, the President has commuted the sen- | tence, in consideration of the good service which this officer has rendered and of some mitigating circumstances connected with the offense of which found guilty, to confine- ment within such limits as the Secretary of War may prescribe, and to deprivation of right to wear the uniform and insignia of his rank in the army fora period of five years.” General sentiment is to the effect that Capt. Armes is, to express it as the officers did this morning, ‘a mighty lucky man,” for this is the third time he has escaped trom dismissal from the service by virtue of a commutation. THE LIMITS to which he will be confined have not yet been fixed, but it is probable that he will be allowed to roam over the District and the states of Maryland and Virginia, since he has real- estate business that carries him into those parts, |. fhe deprivation of his right to wear his uni- | form, it is thought, will be the severest blow of al WHAT HE WAS TRIED FOR, It will be remembered that Capt. Armes was | tried ona charge of conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman, in that he, it was al- leged, intruded himself in the inaugural parade, created a disturbance there, caused the arrest of an officer, and made a public attempt rr. The court found him guilty, and, as they were compelled to, sentenced him to dismissal from the service. But the judge-advo- . Major Geo. B. Davis, made a strong ap- for mercy in Armes’ behalf, and it was ally understood that the sen went to ssident with recommendation for clem- ency from the court. 1’S VISITORS. Some After Offices and Others Call to Pay Their Respects. The President had a moderately easy time with his “business” callers to-day. He gave a few minutes to each of quite a number of peo- ple of no especial importance, trom a public point of view. Only two Congressmen called to talk offi One was Senator Teller, of Colo- rado, The other was Representative Cheatham, with two friends, to see about some of the North Carolina offices. Representative-elect | Burton called merely to introduce two young | ladies from California, Miss Snell and Miss | Jenny Waters, Senator Plumb introduced | three lady friends, Mr. W. B. Gurley, of this | city, had a talk with the President in the inter- | est of the appointment of Capt. Dougherty, who is an Indianian, to the vacant assistant ad- jutant-generalsbip. Mrs, E. L. Eaton came to talk to the President concerning relief of the flood sufferers. FLORIDA OFFICES. Two colored men from Florida, M. 8. White, chairman of the district republican committee, and P. W. Bryant, called in the interest of white candidftes for some of the offices in Florida, They wanted D. C, Humphries made postmaster at Pensacola and Dennis Eagan col- jector of the Florida district. They talked about the other offices of the state also. They expressed their willingness that leading white nen of the party should get the larger offices in the state. ATER OTHER OFFICES, J. H. Morris wants a postmastership some- where in Tennessee, He called to discuss the matter with the Presidem&.Jas. F. Drake called to talk about the postmastership at Pueblo, Cal. Ex-Representative Nichols and Gen. P. B. Hawkins had a conference of two or three min- utes with the President about the North Caro- lina appointments that don’t come. The Presi- dent has at his disposal an office down in Ala- bama which Capt. John Price would like to have. He called this morning to see about the matter. Mr. Thomas W. Gaines, of Clarksville, Texas, was on a similar mission relating to an Office in his locality. Among the other callers were John H. Osten- dorff, of Charleston, S.C P. Featherston, acontestant fora seat in the House from the first Alabama district; ex-Representative Broad- head, who, being a democrat, was not after an office: H, H. Houstan and Col. Lucien Ander- son, of Kentucky; James P, Newcomb, of San Antonio, Texas, who wauted merely to pay re- spects; Joe T. McNary, of Logansport, Ind., aud Mrs. L, W. Kuowlton, of this city, ARMY PROMOTIONS. A New Adjutant-General and the Changes Caused by the Appointment. President sent over to the War department the announcement that he had decided upon the appointment of Colonel John C. Kelton to be adjutant-general of the army to succeed Gen. Richard C. Drum, who was placed on the re- tired list on the 28th of May. This announce- ment caused general jubilation in the depart- ment, where Gen. Kelton isa prime favorite. The word was passed from mouth to mouth, and the fortunate officer was besieged for a long time by his colleagues, eager to offer their congratulations, By this action of the Pres- ident _Lieutenant-Colonel George D. Ruggles, well known here, becomes a colonel; Major Henry C. Corbin, also for some time a Washingtonian, is made a lieutenant-colonel, leaving a vacant majorship to be filled by the selection of one from over fifty captains who have applied for the place. The contest, it is believed, has narrowed down to Capts. Taylor, Dougherty, and Bourke, with chances some- what in favor of the last-named officer, In the feeling of satisfaction over Gen. Kel- ton’s promotion there is no element more highly pleased than the corps of newspaper men who have had business at various times with the adjutant-general’s office. They found Gen. Kelton to be courteous, always ready to receive them, straightforward in his replies to their questions, and honest to the backbone in his treatment of them, without partiality to any, and giving equal favor to all. PATRICK EGAN NOT RECALLED. An Emphatic Denial from Mr. Walker Blaine. In reference to the report that Patrick Egan had been recalled from Chili, Mr. Walker Blaine made a positive denial to-day that the cablegram had been sent, “There is no truth in the story,” he said toa reporter. “No charges have been made to the department against Mr. Egan, and until they are, the.

THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE SOUTH FORK FISHING CLUB FOUND GUILTY OF GROSS IF NOT ar CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE—THE SITUATION JOHNSTOWN TO-DAY—THOUSANDS AT WORK. Jounsrows, Pa., June 8.—It is the mor: of the eighth day since the demon of destru tion swept down the valley of the Conemaugh, but the desolation that marks its angry flight 4s still visible in all its intensity and horror. The days that have been spent by weary toilers whose efforts were ste by grief have done but little to repair the devastation wrought in one short hour by the potent fury of the ele- ments, To the watchers on the mountain side all seems yet chaos and confusion. The thousand fires that spot the valley show that the torch is being used to complete the work of annihila- | tion where repair is impossible,and as the smoke curls upward it reminds one of the peace offer. ings of ancient Babylon. The corps of govern- ment engineers that arrived last night has al- ready demonstrated the valuable assistance | which it is capable of rendering in these times of emergency with but a few hours rest. These men were up at sunrise this morning, | and by 8 o'clock a pontoon had been stretched | across the river at Kernville. Acting in con- junction with the Pennsylvania military au- | thorities they are pursuing their labors at various other points, and by sundown it is confidently expected that pon- toon bridges will be erected at all | places where the necessities of traffic | demand. It is a fact probably not generaily known that the great governmentof the United States owns only 500 feet of pontoon bridges, and that these arc the same that were used by the federal forces in the civil war twenty-five years ago, The bridges that are to be used at Johnstown were brought from West Point and Willett Point, where they have been for years used in the ordinary course of instruction in the military and engineer corps. MORE RAIN AND A THUNDER STORM. rain and an early morning thunder storm. The hillside streams were filled to the banks and everything was dripping. The air was chilly and damp and daylight was long in coming to this valley of desolation and death. At an early hour the valley where so many have gone to rest presented a most dismal scene. It looked, indeed, like the valley of the dead. the meager shelter offered them till the dey had fairly begun. As the day advanced the | tented hills began to show signs of lite; smoke arose from many a camp-fire, and on jevery surrounding in this valley desolation could be seen the guards moving among the tented villages, At 5:30 a.m, the whistle from the Cambria iron works sounded the signai for early preparation for the serious work of the day, aud so the thou- | sands of workers in belalt of the sufferere were soon moving on the hill sides and in the valley The weather was most unpleasant for ai one to be out doors, but it apparently had uo | effect on the people here, for as soon as the | early breakfast was over the thousands of workmen could be seen going to their work, and soon the whole valley, that in the early morning hours was asleep, was a teeming throng of life and activity. While the rain is far from pleasant to the workers and the many | helpers, it is certainly providential that the cool weather is continuing in order to prevent the much dreaded decomposition of THE HUNDREDS OF HUMAN BODIES yet unrecovered and thousands of animals that perished in the flood. The air this morning, while tainted to some extent with the fumes arising from the decaying bodies, was not near so much so as if the morning had been hot and sultry. What is needed is a strong, cool breeze to sweep down through this valley to purify the air aud carry away the poisonous gases. By seven o'clock the whole valley was full of peo- ple aud the scene wasa most animated one. The various sections of the flooded territory were full of men busy in searching for the dead, removing and burning debris. At 8 o'clock five bodies had been taken from the mass at the stone bridge. A large force of men have been working all day on this part of the wreck, To-day at Johnstown opened with a heavy | Nothing was moving, and all remained within | Fiynn = are doing most excellent work,the laborers working at the Cambria iron works and on the Pennsylvania railroad seem to be making more rapid progress.

South Fork dam—This community is ine wild state of excitement asa result of the re- cent flood. The blame of the entire affair bes been placed upon the South Fork Hunt- ing and Fishing club, and so are some of the people in this vicinity that trouble is feared for W.8. Boyer, super- intendent at the cottages on the lake. Already several of the pretty villas have been broken into by marauder and the furniture demol- ished. The boats have been stolen in broad daylight and reduced to kindling wood by an infuriated crowd of liquor-crazed fellows, The persons who broke intothe cottages have not been discovered. It was evident robbery was not intended, for the mischicf was purely wonton. Affairs at present are assuming serious aspects, that was in session yesterday at Nineveh termi nated its labors in the afternoon, The verdict has been fully prepared. and only lacks the signatures of the jurors before being given public: It is understood that the jury, after review- ing at length the successive breaks and careless repaifs in the dem in past years, declare the executive committee of the South Fork Fish- ing club guilty of gross, if not criminal, negli- gence.

At the request of Swift Bear, Charles Jordan, who is related by marriage to Red Cloud, them spoke to the ludians, giving reasons WHY THEY OUGHT TO ACCEPT the act of Congress urging every one todo as he thought was right. Hollow Horn Bear, orator of the tribe, said that they all knew Gen. Crook and would listen to what he said. Gen, Crook reminded them that the half- breeds could read and understand what was in the bill, and were willing to sign. because they knew it was best for them. He then said: “When I left you eleven years ago I thought that by this time you would be much further advanced than yc are now. I feel that you are satisfied to loaf on and the government feed you.

The continued falling of the river renders the removal of the debris every day more arduous, and where a few days ago the timbers when loosened would float away, now have to be re- moved by hand, thus making the work very slow. MORE DISINFECTANT WELCOMED. A most welcome arrival this morning was Dr. H. Builen, of disinfectant fame. He brought with him fifty barrels more of his disinfectant. The ‘tor will take charge of the disinfecting of dangerous sections of the flooded dis- trict and notably at the stone bridge.
