A New Feature in the Work of Charity at Willard Hall. Anew feature in the work at Willard hall is the making up of children’s clothes to be sent to Johnstown. Woodward & Lothrop and Lansburgh has contributed a lot of material, aud a couple of the ladies who were engaged in packing the bexes have procured s sewing- machine and are making up little dresses and articles of underwear ata great rate. As fast as they are made they are packed in boxes, Large quantities of clothing are still delivered atthe hall, and the work of packing them in boxes still continues. Mr. Crouch, who has been at the ball since the work of relief began, said this morning that their work was not yet completed, and would probably continue through to-morrow. They are still receiving supplies of clothing. especially of underwear. AN INTERESTING EVENT to-day was the visit to the hall of Mr. Hamil- ton, the assistant superintendent of the Cambria iron works at Johnstown. He had lost all his property, but more fortunate than a great many others the lives of his wife and daughter had been spared. He bad brought them to this: where they will visit his sister, Mrs, Sumner, at the Hamilton house. Mr. Hamilton returns to Johnstown this evening. He said that there Was great destitution among people who pre- vious to the tlood had been in good circum- stances. They were not inclined, as # rule, to appiy for relief, and so he gave the names of a number of familics who were in need of sup- plies. Loxes of assorted clothing will be sent directly to these persons, and in this way relief will be afforded without injury to their feelings. 4 DISPATCH To MB, EMERY. Treasurer Johnson to-day seut the following dispatch to L, 8. Emery, the representative of the committee at Johnstown. ‘Telegram re- ceived. You will have to determine as to the necessity of your remaining longer. In the absence of any definite information or sugges- tion as to further relief we can render through you, we are unable to give you apy further im- structions.” ANOTHER NOTE, City Postmaster Ress to-day sent to head- quarters a letter mailed inthis city and ad- dressed simply “Johnstown Sufferers.” In one corner was written “Maggie Reynolds, 615 New York avenue.” The letter had a two cent stamp on it. There were twoenvelopes, and in the inside euvelope was one cent. There was nothing inthe letter except the cent. and it was probably the contribution of a small girl, ‘Treasurer Johnson willcredit the amount of tus contribution with the others received. ONE OF THE HEAVIEST LOSERS by the Johnstown disaster was Mr. G. M. Chapin, who was connected with various inter- ests in that town. He has been living iu this city with his family during the + winter, end now is compelled to go back to Johnstown to try retrieve Lis fortuues, In settling up his affairs he has decid: sell his carriage horses and bas generously determined to donate the —- to the fund now being raised for the jobustown sufferers. Mr. Wood, of Wood ros., the proprietors of the livery stable where the horses have been kept, called at headquarters to-day and informed the committee of Mr. Chapin’s purpose. In view of the fact that Mr. Chapin has lost nearly all his property, Treasurer Johnson thought it was one of the most commendable subseri thus fur received. It was decided to of horses, a fine team of sorrels, at public auction on Thursday afternoon; at § o'clock, in front of Willard’s hotel. ‘TREASTRER JOHNSON was hopefal of being able to close up the sub- scription books this evening, but as the sub- scriptions still continue to come in, he will de- vote his time to the work until it is completed. He has been greatly assisted in handling the large amount of work that has devolved upon hun y beiug in the office of Mr. A. D. Ander- son, the secretary of the boardof promotion for the Ame exposition, Mr. Anderson has type-writers and a clerical force, and is also setretary of the relief committe ,and the work has been reduced to a system and attended to with promptness, APPLICATIONS ARE RECEIVED from persons who wish to be sent to Johnstown a4 purses and doctors. Treasurer Johnson is of the opiniou that the authorities there can secure all the help needed, and that the money contributed here can be better utilized by being held in reserve until a demand comes from Gov. Beaver or Gen. Hastings. Mr. John- son says that probably some of the most deserving people have not received assistance oa yet as 7 would be kept from asking for help by feelings of delicacy, He thinks that there will be great need of money in Johns- town, and he wants to disburse the fands generously distributed in this city in a way will do the most good. CANAL SUFFERERS WHO SEED HELP. Mr. Watkins, the secretary and treasurer of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal company, called at headquarters to-day and said that there was a good deal of suffering among the poeple along the canal, from Georgetown to Point of Rocks, He stated that the canal superinteudents would be sent out to ascertain the facts. He thinks that the people between ers Ferry aud Williamsport are being at- tended to by the relief committee of Balti- more, but those living between Williamsport and Cumberland are greatly in need of help, Mrs. Curtis J. Tillyer, “who has a sumer house at Woodmont, called and mentioned that the people in that vicinity greatly uceded DISPATCH TO GOV, BEAVER. THE WRECKED CANAL. President Gambrill’s Estimate of the Damage. IT WOULD TAKE $300,000 TO MAKE THE WORK KNAVIGABLE—THE GREATEST DESTRUCTION BE- TWEEN GEORGETOWN AND GREAT FALLS— $30,000 WILL GIVE GEORGETOWN MILLS WATER. The examination into the true condition of the Chesapeake and Obio canal and the mak- ing of estimates for the repair thereof has }ractically been concluded. President Gam- brill has received a number of reports from superintendents, and he now says that at least $300,000 will be required to rebuild the water- way, although it could probably be rendered fit for navigation for €275,000, The damage between Georgetown and the Great Falls is figured up at $180,000, and of this $30,000 will be needed to give the Georgetown millers necessary water-power. From Great Falls to Cumberland the total loss is $120,090, THE LOSSES AT GEORGETOWN. Superintendent J. T. Biser reports to Presi- dent Gambrill as follows: “The Rock creek dam in Georgetown is destroyed, and the steam dredge, which cost several thousand dollars, was carried off, and all the scows on the Georgetown level are gone. Half a mile above outlet lock, Georgetown, 125 feet long, 11 feet below canal bottom; opposite Little Falls church, 200 feet long, 12 feet below the canal bottom; below Chain bridge, 600 feet long, 4 feet below bottom; from this break westward 1,000 feet of towpath deeply washed; break at the Chaia bridge, 100 feet long, 12 feet deep; from the Chain bri to lock No. 5 the tow- path is washed to the depth of 2% feet, the dis- tance being nearly one mile, At jock No. 5 the coping bas been carried away, and the backing on each side of the lock walls ripped out wholly. The flume is washed out as wide and deep as the canal and the gates damaged. The guard bank and feeder are badly damaged and feeder gates damaged. To repair these dam- ages, it is eetimated, will cost at least $30,000. RUINED Locks, “The towpath of what is called the half-mile level and the locks of this and the two-mile level above are allins badly-damaged state. Four locks in succession are nearly destroyed and lock-houses and gates carried away, with bad breaks in the towing-path. Cabin John culvert is damaged. The cluster of what is known as the seven locks got off very easily. At the log-wall = 9 miles from Georgetown, there is a break near the club- house 150 feet long, 30 feet deep, and the re- taining wall on the river side, 60 feet high, is carried away. About 300 yards above this, at the mouth of Wide Water, is a break 500 feet long, 80 feet wide, 32 feet deep, and the retain- ing wall, 60 feet high, 1s gone. It would ri quire 160,000 cartloads of material for filling in this single locality. Inthe same neighbor- hood, just above, is a break 325 feet long, 6 feet below bottom and 40 feet wide; also another break 190 feet long. 30 feet deep; another 80 feet long, 20 feet deep, and another 310 feet long, 10 feet deep. THE LOG-WALL BRIDGE is gone, and the wall for supporting the tow- path, 20 feet high, is washed away for the dis- tance of 1,000 yards. This part of the canal is 60 feet above the river, and therefore the ne- ceasity of having wide embankments and heavy retaining walls, the canal there being very wide and over 60 feet deep. At Lock No. 15, in Montgomery county, the stone lockhouse was carried away entirely, the coping, backing, and gates of the lock are gone, the flume work en tirely washed out. Lock 'No. 16is the same and the lockhouse is also gone. ‘The stop-lock justabove has been cleared out and the em- ankment damaged. At lock No. 17 the lock- house is goue and the lock and tlume damaged. Lock No, 13 is in the same condition and the lockhouse damaged, Lock No, 19 is also con- siderably damaged. FROM LITTLE FALLS TO GREAT FALLS. From the Georgetown level to the Great Falls of the Potomac, about 5 miles, it will require $150,000 to restore the canal to the condition in which itwas before the freshet. The damage to the falls above Garret's store includes break 50 feet long and 3 feet below the bottom. About 300 yards above is another break 250 feet long. “Just west of this is another break 300 feet long and 8 feet deep. Two miles of the towpath are washed 234 feet deep. Dam No. 1, at Little Falls, a rubble ds will require considerable repairs. At Watt's Branch there isa break 80 feet long. There is also a small break at Muddy Branch culvert, and the towpath is damaged. At Seneca, lock No. 23, is badly washed, and also-Lock No. 24, in the Seneca ‘neighborhood. At this point there isa break 150 feet long, 4 feet below the bottom.” THE CYCLONE PROPHET. What Officers of the Signal Service Say About De Voe’s Predictions. GEN. GREELY LAUGHS—WASHINGTON PEOPLE NEED NOT BE ALAKMED—CYCLONES DO NOT FORM IN THIS LOCALITY, EITHER SUDDEN OB OTHERWISE —DE Vor's FORMER FORECASTS, Prof. De Voe’s prediction of a cyclone to form over Washington between Saturday and Monday has caused some alarm among nervous people who have really placed their faith in the Jerseyman’s prophecy. But those who have stopped to think the matter over have come to the conclusion that the very fact of a cyclone forming suddenly over any place precludes all | possibility of prediction, As some have said, @man must be either an inspired prophet or a very lucky guesser to dare setup such a claim unless he is blinded by a foolish belief in his own powers, At the signal office the general sentiment is expressed by 4 LAUGH AT THE “‘PROFESSOR’S” PREDICTION. One of the officers there said this morning that if a person with any wit at all would con- sider fora moment how De Voe reaches his conclusions, and the theory on which he works, the conclusion will be one of pity for him. De Voe, the officer explained, goes on the eycle theory, that is, if there is a storm to-day there will be auother in the same place just six months from this time, That is to say, he be- lieves that weather travelsin half years, GES, GREELY’S STATEMENT. Gen. Greely laughed when a Srar reporter mentioned De Voe’s name, and authorized the following statement: “The officials of the signal corps have had in- quiries from a large number of people as to what faith should be placedin the prediction of Prof. De Voe, that a dangerous and destruc- tive cyclone will form in the vicinity of Wash- ington between the 15th and 17th of this month. There need be no alarm concerning this pr diction, tor cyclones form in low latitudes, in the regions of the West India Islands, or occa- sionally inthe Gulf of Mexico. No cycione has ever formed over any part of the land sur- face of the United States, and no cyclone has ever passed immediately over Washington. Such hurricanes are very rare during the month of June, and even when they do occur later in the season, Washington is so situated that they very rarely pass near this city, as the course of these storms carry them somewhat to the southeast of Washington, when they enter the coast to the eastward of the blue Ridge and Alleghany ranges, and considerably to the northward when they pass to the west of these mountains. DE VOE A FALSE PROPHET. “Mr. De Voe has previously made startling weather forecasts, which have been critically examined at this office, with the following re- sult: He predicted heavy snowsin the middle Atlantic states as far south as Washington on March 5, 1596; also heavy northeast gales on the New England coast, and heavy southeast gales off the Hatteras coast, together with foods in the south Atlantic states cn the same date, and frosts were predicted fer Florida on the Sd, The signal office wep for the dates above referred to show that all these forecasts were complete failures. Floods and northeast gales were also predicted for Nova Scotia on the 11th and 12th of the same mouth. These predic- tons were also complete faiiures, as shown by the signal office charts, “The United States includes such a vast area that severe storm: ther local or general, oc- cur almost any day of the year in some por- tious of the county, ‘Treasurer Johnson to-day sent the following dispatch to Gov.

Prof. Hazen, the prediction officer at the sig- nal office, says thet there isa warm devel- oping in the northwest, He thinks that there will be a shower here this afternoon or evening, and that to-morrow will be slightly cooler. Yesterday afternoon the thunder storm brought a sudde: in ture of Span ast erate the fe ‘ YESTERDAY’S APPOINTMENTS. Indian Commissioner Oberly’s Successor —Land Office Officials, Etc.

Annual Meeting of the Alumni and Election of Officers. The annual meeting of the alumni of Colum- bian university was held last night in the uni- versity building, Prof. 0. T. Mason presiding and Prof. H. L. Hodgkins performing the du- ties of secretary. In his address, Prof. Mason pleaded for a more constant and consistent support by the alumni of the institution from which they had graduated. No university could be a complete success unless it bad the earnest support of its slumni, and this he hoped would be given to Columbian by the graduates, The reports of the secretary and the treas- urer were brief but interesting, that of the latter showing that the funds were ample. The librarian’s report recorded an increase of 800 volumes in the library during the past year, all of them donated by members, Others who spoke upon the question ad- vanced by Prot. Mason were Dr, Welling. E. B. Hay, Rev. A. F. Steele, Dr. Wm. Lee, Henry L. Reynolds, Prof. Huntington, Prof. Fristoe, and Prof. Montague. A resolution to the effect that every member of the Alumni association should use his intlu- ence to induce at least one student to enter the college or the preparatory school next session was offered by Brot. Montague and unanimously adopte the annual election of officers resulted as follows: President, Dr. D. W. Prentiss; vice- presidents, Messrs, William A, De Caindry and Andrew B. Sewell; secretary, Prof. Howard L. Hodgkins, and treasurer, Prof. A. P. Montague. DISTRICT GOVERNMEN’ T. MAJOR RAYMOND ON WATER METERS AND CAB- RIAGE BLOCKS, In speaking of the order of the board of Commissioners relative to the setting of water meters, as published in yesterday's Sran, Major Raymond said to-day that he was sorr; that his recommendations were not adopted, for they would certainly have been beneficial to the citizens of Washington, especially those who live on the high ground and are unable to Ee water above the second story. Otherwise, e said, he had no fecling whatever in the matter. About the revocation of the order of the late board relative to the removal of carriage blocks, Major Raymond said that he had made no recommendation in the matter, the action of the former board having been taken upon the opinion of the attorney for the District. THE SEWAGE PROBLEM. Capt. Lusk has gone to East Orange, N. to inspect the sewerage system there. He will also visit Fall River, Mass. His observa- tions will be embodied in a report which will be submitted to Congress as to the best means of disposal of sewage in the District. MISCELLANEOUS, The Commissioners have granted Messrs, Geo. E. Emmons and C. W, King permission to erect @ private stable in the rear of 707 5th street, A great many property owners in the neighborhood objected to the stable, but as it was a private oue the Commissioners would not refuse @ permit, SSE Bitten by a Vicious Dog. Yesterday, Mra. Wm. Pettibone, corner 131¢ and B streets southwest, while washing one of her dogs, was badly bitten on both hands and arms. Her granddaughter came to her rescue in time or the dog would have caught her face and throat. Dr, H. E. Leach was hastily called in and cauterized the wounds, and at last ac- counts the lady, who is nearly seventy-five years old, was doing well. The same dog, it is said, has now bitten six or seven persona, we ll Sudden Death of an Old Citizen. Mr, James G. Smith died suddenly yesterday at his residence, 610 F street northwest.

He was for years one of the firm of } Stevens & Co., haters, under the Metrop. hotel, and for many years carried on business tor himself, Having’ secured a competency he retired from business nearly twenty years ago, and has since lived in retirement with his family.
