In the Several Districts the Voters Are Lining Up for Election. There were many political workers and strikers in the Palace court yesterday who were loud in-proclaiming that the time 1 arrived for the redemption of promiscs made at Sacramento. The un- rewarded workers threaten to camp on © trail of the high and ighty dispen- sers of patronage until employment is given to them. Some of the promises | were made during the eventful Senatorial | struggle of 1893. The session of the Har- | bor Cominissioners and the presence in the city yesterday of Governor Gage and several of his political advisers caused | the holders of unredeemed political | pledges to congregate on Colonel Kirk- | patrick’s premises.

Her work is magnificent, her personality all-pervading. She has proved by this effort her right of place among the foremost actresses of her day, and is now but at the threshold of her career. The welcome accorded the young Californian has been of the warm- est, and the engagement is already one of the most important, financial as well as artistic, successes of the season. There will be no Sunday performances during the run of “Under Two Flags.”” $ in The Alcazar has a good thing this week in “Sapho,” which is presented with all the completeness and finish of last year's production of the play at the popular playhouse.

CORPSES STREW RIVER BANKS Roll of Victims of the| Flood Is Fast In- creasing. Ghouls Loot Houses and Rob Bodies of the Dead in ‘West Virginia. WILLIAMSON, W. Va. June 26.—There is no longer any doubt that the list of dead, the result of the recent flood, will exceed 100. Partles reaching here this evening from the upper end of the flooded district bring the first autnentic informa- tion received from the scene of disaster. The section visited hy the flood ‘was thickly settled, but, as the population con- sists chiefly of miners, who were at work at the time, the large majority of the dead are women and children, and. thrilling stories of rescue are told. At Eckman a mother climbed a Luge pillar ef a railway trestle, holding to her breast her only child. Her home was washed aws but the mother and child were saved. Fifteen persons are said to have been drowned at Eckman. At Keystone pro ably thirty persons perished. In one in- stance persons fled to an island and climbed small trees, only to be swept away fifteen minutes later by the tide, which was filled with debris of every kind. Cn Dry Fork the loss of life is great. Bodies are scattered all along the stream, many of which will never he identified. Seven saloons at Keystone were washed away four lives being lost in one of them. Dv Hatfield's home at this point was no washed away, as formerly reported, anc his family is safe. At Brooke the loss of property is severe, but only three lives are said to have been lost there. The region from Ennis to Davy, forty- three miles, is completely in ruins. dreds of mine mules can be seen in heaps, intermingled with human bodies. Nea Davy a horse was.found lodged in a driit and a human body dangling from the | saddle, the.man's foot having hung in the stirrup.. A report has just réached here that fifteen bodies are lodged in a drift at Hatfleld tunnel, twenty miles east of this city. Near Burke a mun saw his brother sinking in the flood and plunged in o rescue him. Both were drowned. C. F. Clifford, train. dispatcher for the Norfolk and Western, walked from Ennis to Davy, and now has control of the tele- graph lines at the latter point. He says that on his journey he saw five dead bodies at Eckman, seven at Keystone and fifteen_scattered along the shores. He pressed on through without stopping, aad those were on his direct line of travel. says this, number may be largely in- creased. It is expected that the loss of life along the little streams emptying into the Keystone has been great. These streams have not yet been = explored. Twenty barrels of whisky were caught in the river at Welch. A report has reached here that most of the colored miners are laying off there on a protracted spree and that street fights are numerous. Tt is dif- ficult for the authorities to handle the sit- | uation. Much theft is reported in the dev- astated district. Even clothing is being torn from dead bodies. Most of the bodies being found along Tug River have beey washed from the Elkhorn River. The loss of property by the flood on the Tug and Elkhorn rivers is now roughly estimated at from $5,000,000 to $8,000,000. [ HOBERT P.
