ROBERT REY- BURN WILL BE APPOINTED HEALTH OFFICER OF THE DISTRICT. As predicted in Tur STAR several days ago, Health Officer Townshend has been asked to send in his resignation, to take effect August 1, with leave of absence from the 30th instant. It has just been developed that on the 19th instant, the date of the secret board session, Secretary Tindall was directed to and did write the following letter to Dr. Townshend: “The Commissioners direct me to request that you will send them tomorrow your resignation of the office of health officer of the District of Columbia, to take effect the 30th instant.” It will be recalled that in Tne Sran’s ac- count of a subsequent meeting of the board it was agreed that Dr. Townshend would be given a month’ in which to give up his office. ‘The truth of this statement was veritied by the following letter sent to him today by the secretary of the board of Commissioners: “The Commissioners direct me to request you to tender to them before the expiration of the present month your resignation of the office of health officer, to take effect July 31, 1891, with leave of absence from the 30th in- stant until th: late.” So Tue Stan's account of the meeting and the subsequent meetings of the board in rela- tion to this matter have been carried out to the letter.except that there has been a change as to Dr. Townshend's successor. It was originally decided to appoint Dr. Hammett te the posi- tion, but the Commissioners finally abandoned him and discussed Dr. Lamb. There was sonfe objection to him, and for a time the Commis- sioners did not know whom to elect. ‘This afternoon Commissioner Douglass Robert Reyburn, and after te him the position introduced him to C sioner Robert i cussed the duties of the office of health officer. At the conclusion of the interview the Com- missioners mutually agreed to appoint Dr. Robert Reyburn health ofticer of the District of Columbia upon the receipt of Dr. Townshend's resignation. a ee NO LONGER SPECIAL AGENT. David 8. Thompson in Charge at Philadelphia Removed. Mr. Frank R. Williams, the special agent in charge of manufacturers’ statistics in the cen- sus office, went over to Philadelphia last even- ing and this morning he took charge of the office of the census agent for Philadelphia, David 8. Thompson. The latter had refused to give up the census schedules on certain special inquiries, such as wool, iron, steel, carpets, worsteds, &c., and send them to the office in thii city, where the compilation is made. Mr. Porter thinks that he wanted to swell the manufacturing statistics of Philadelphia. At any rate Mr. Porter thinks that Thomp- son has been pottering along with his work. “Whenever.” Mr. Porter added, “I sent word to Mr. Thompson to hurry up with his figures, he replied by sending to mea dele- gation of Congressmen. Now Mr. Williams is incharge of the work. Mr. Thompson is no longer connected with the census oftice and the returns will be made and everything will go along smoothly.” sete THE FORTIFICATION BOARD. Its Recommendations Approved by Acting Secretary Grant. Acting Secretary Grant has just approved the recommendations made by the fortifica- tion board at its recent meeting in New York. They include an allotment of $2,818 for the completion of the Woodbridge wire-wrapped gun. The construction of this gun was com- menced two years ago, but work upon it was stopped because of lack of funds. Souie re- markable results in the points of endurance, locity of projectile and lightness of this type of gun secured by the Russian ordnance officers has again attracted attention and led toa re- newal of the experiments made some years ago in this country with Dr. Woodbridge’s gun. ‘The board also made a small allotmentto defray the expense of a survey in connection with the selection of sites for mortar batteries for the defense of San Francisco. The most important recommendation which was approved. however, is that the ebiof of ordnance be. authorized construct some of the new 12-inch rifles of forty calibers length. The extreme length of these heavy guns, so far designed in the United States, has been about thirty-six feet, but some of the European gunmakers have constructed guns of this catiber fifty'feet long. It is believed that the result so attained will justify the ex- tension of our 12-inch guns to a length of forty feet, and the board's recommendation that the experiment be tried has secured the assent of the department. THE SIGNAL OFFICE, Changes Made to Accommodate the New Or der of Things. Gen. Greely, chief signal officer of the army, has issued an order making changes in the di- visions of his office to facilitate the separation of the military signaling branch of his office from the weather bureau and the transfer of the latter to the Agricultural Department July 1. The station division, in charge of the ob- servation stations, is to remain as at present in charge of an executive officer and a chief clerk, and is to retain its present clerical force. A new data division is to be organized by com- bining the present record, review and drafting divisions. It will be under a chief and three subchiets, with a clerical force. For the pres- ent Lieut. Glassford will be in charge. The supply and miscellaneous division will have charge of supplies, transportation, &c. ‘The correspondence division will be under the chief clerk of the weather bureau. The forecast di- vision will be in charge of three professors—a professor of weather forecasts, a professor of cold waves and temperature changes anda professor of floods and river changes. ‘The instrument division will be in charge of a professor and the library will be under a librarian, An. examining division will have charge of the accounts. lit di- vision will remain for the present im charge of Maj.

Narrative of a Witness of the Destruction at Cherokee. Aura, Iowa, June 25.—Mr. ©. K. Dixon, su- perintendent of the Ilinois Central railw who possesses the best facilities for obtaining the exact facts regarding the reported destruc tion of property and loss of life in northwest- ern Towa, said inte inst night: “A serious rain- storm set in at Cherokee and points north, south and west about 7 o'clock in the evening of 23d and continued all night, the rain coming down in sheet. At 3a.m. the fire alarm was sounded, calling every one out, and parties formed fo rescue those living on the fints near the Little Sioux river. AtS a.m. I had not heard of any loss of life. At 6:30 I crossed our bridge to the east ide of the river and shortly afterward the bridge went out, Wires. It again commenced raining very hard, and during the day at least seventy-five houves Cherokee went dow: yet unable to learn ing town, aw all the bridges are gone, and it is im- possible to cross in a boat. The road is re- paired to the east bank of the Little Sioux river opposite Cherokee. On account of the failure of wires Iam unable to learn the extent of the damage that the company has suffered. There is some amount of damage to bridges, but we hope to get repairs made very soon.” THE DELUGE COVERS COUNTIES. Cmicaao, June 25.—Advices received at the headquarters of the Chicago and Northwestern railroad in this city this morning indicate that the destruction by the cloud burst in north- western Iowa yesterday is more widespread than the nm dispatches thus far received suggest. From the damage to its lines actually Feported ‘to the road it appears that the deluge covers at least portions of the counties of Sioux, O'Brien, Clay, Plymouth, Cherokee, Buena Vista, Woodbury, Ida, Sac Monona, Crawford, Carroll, Harrison’ and Shelby, covering a territory three counties in width along the western border of the state and five counties in length, beginning within ous tier of counties from the northern bound- ary of the state and extending southward. DIFFICULT To GET NEWS. The telegraph lines in this territory are greatly demoralized, and it is next to impos- sible to get accurate or detailed information touching the general losses and casualties. This territory is dotted with villages and covered with cultivated farms, and the worst is feared in the way of damage and possible loss of life along the water courses which traverse this great section of the state. Several of the general officers of the Northwestern railroad left for the scene lust night and are making strenuous efforts to penetrate into the devas tated region. Their reports to headquarters give only the result of their observances in regard to the damage to the property of the company, leav- ing that of the adjacent communities to be in- ferred. Their reports show that the main line of the road, northern Iowa division, is demoral- ized from Linn Grove to Alton, a distance of forty miles; that the Moville ‘branch from Moville to Schuller, a distance of 45 miles, is in the same condition, and thet the Onawa branch, from Onawa to’ Ida Grove, fifty miles in length, is aluo badly off. | These lince, with an aggregate length of 135 miles, are entirely blockaded by the carrying away of bridges and the washing out of the road All traftic this side and beyond the points named is being carried by round about lines. MANY BRIDGES CARRIED aWay, On the main line from Linn Grove to Alton the bridge over Waterman creck, with its trestle 280 feet long. has been carried away and ten other briages, five on each side of Water- man creck, have been rendered useless by undermining or partially carried away. One bridge. 190 feet long, near Paulina, is gone, to- gether with two smaller ones. The track is warhed away in many places. At Water- man creck the track and ties have been carried a quarter of a mile from the road bed. It has been impossible to learn much in regard to the condition of affairs on the Moville branch between Movilleand Schaller. The wires are down and the waters are still so high that it is impossible ax vet to make a personal inspection of the line. ‘The officials here, however, fear the worst. The same conditions obtain on the line be- tween Ida Grove and Onawa. No reports have come in from that section. which indicates that great damage has probably been done. It ix reported from Galva that the bridge over Maple river has been badly washed out. At the present time it is impossible to esti- mate the damage to railroad property in that territory, but enough is known to show that it will be very heavy. The section of country where the flood was most severe is traversed by numerous branches, not only of the Chi and Northwestern, but also of the Ilinois Cen- tral, the Milwaukee and St. Paul and the main line of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha rads. No report of the damage of these lines have been received, except from the Illinois Central, whose line from Cherokee to Onawa, which runs along the Sioux river, is blockaded, and the general officers who ‘left here last night have not yet been able to get across the swollen river to Cherokee. which is on the west side of the river. The wires are all down and nothing can be learned as to the state of affairs on the west side of the river. The bridge of the Illinois Central at Cherokee over the Sioux river is washed away.

The following additional particulars of the flood at Cherokee were received this morning: The wagon bridge over the Sioux south of the town went out about 10 o'clock Tucsday night This was followed by all the houses oa the flat in that part of the town, num- bering over 100. The number of people driven from their homes was between 1,200 and 1,500. The river continued to rise until 3 o'clock, at that time being ten feet higher than was ever known. Every bridge across the Sioux river, both wagon and railroad, are gone between here and Onewa, and probably every bridge in Chore mty on the Sioux river.
