Never before was the lower Texas coast Jvisited by a so terrible and de structive a storm. It extended for two handrd miles inland, destroying thou sands pi houses and involving a pecun iary loss of many millions. Among the poorer classes great des olation most prevail, as few were able I I to save any consider ble -portion of their small possessions from the general wreck The entire crop of tbe present year is virtually gone and fast deal of suffering must en sue, especially among the negroes, most of whom are without means of any kind. 1 It is feared that many more neo- le were drowned at Indianola, as the owerlnd of the peninsula is completely waited away. Many people are miss ing and nothing definite can be learned until the angry waters recede. The storm aeame in the shape of a burriaane, the waters of the gulf rose up and in three "hours the whole peninsula on whichllndisnola is situated was under ten feet of water. The total loss as far as n(hr known to Texas from this gulf storm-is : Human lives lost 38; loss to crops 1,000,000; loss to city and town propefty 3,400,000; loss to shipping and Harbor improvements R900.000 Galvsston, Tex., August 23 A special to the News from San Antonio says :ll The damage to this city by a terrifi cyclone Friday is estimated at two' jniilion five hundred thousand dollars.

The em ployees of the Broadway and Seventh avenue and Broadway and University Place lines stopped work at 4 o'clock today on' account of a change yester day in the schedule of time. This change, it is claimed, added from three to five hours to the work of each driver and conductor. The employees of the otner west-side lines have been much uisuDucu wiin various auegea ex actions of their superintendent, being obliged to work longer hours all around. It was said this morning byn oonductor on tbe Uleecker street road that all of the west-side lines exoept Eighth avenue would be called out tomorrow morning.

The print ing contract made some time s;noo by the democratic congressional committee with Gibson Bros.,'; of this city, has been transferred to another firm. After the contract had been made, officials of the committee learned that Gibson Bros were under ban of Columbia typographical union and the Knights of Libor because they employed non union workinermen. ' Chairman Kenna and secretary, Thompson were ignorant of the existence of such controversy with the nrm when the contract was entered into, and on learning the fact they im mediately annulled it. In fact the con tract was transferred the very same day it was made, and before any work had .been done under it. The bovootted firm interposed no objection whatever to the transfer of the contract work. but said they appreciated the situation and were, entirely willing to release the committee from all : obligation to the firm. Urtat Uneaatneoa JTelt. ; Galvk8ton, Tex., Aug. 23 A spe cial to the News from Laredo savF: In connection with the fact that the mili tary authorities in Mexico have within the last week purchased all the arms and ammunition to be had in Laredo, it is also a fact that in addition to 2.000 troops within a few hours march of Nuevo Laredo, there are at present 2,000 Mexcan oavalry posted along the Rio Grande between ; Nuevo Laredo and Piedras Negras. At the old town of Palafdx, forty miles above here, there is a detachment of Mexican troops and they are reported to be throwing up fortifications pending the final decision in the Cutting case. Great uneasiness prevails in this part of the border con cerning the defenceless condition of the people, and sharp criticisms on all sides are heard of the President's fish ing trip to the Adirondack while Mexico is pushing her troops to the Rio Grande in order to strike hard in the event of war being declared. The de struction of private property along the Rio Grande on the American side before an army oould be mobilized, would, it is alleged, be great, and the value of the property destroyed would amount to more than the cost of concentration of a few thousand troops by the govern- ment at the principal points along the American border. Tbe Mexicans say the Americans are a nation of shop keepers, and won't fight. A Fanny Auction. Curiosity is perhaps the chief human characteristic, be it virtue or vice. Few people know how greatly the "bump of of curiosity" is developed, but all these Auknowmg ones have to do is to attend an auction of unclaimed express pack ages, and their eyes will surely be opened. For hours yesterday a motley crowd of trcn and boys packed a South W ilmington street auotion house and watched such a sale. Behind a desk were Mr. Brysn and Mr. Poe. They had be hind them a big pile of unolaimei articles and these were rapidly passed to tho autioneer, who as rapidly sold them for whatever they would bring. Such sales are held about once in two years, and embrace all packages, c, wnicn accumulate in tnai time, inese sales are regular lotteries. The auc tioneer holds up what is apparently a box, neatly wrapped in paper. : 4,How much r cries he. mere is a bid of say "ten cents." A spectator asks : "Is that box heavy ? "Yes," re plies the auctioneer, I he inquirer at once bids "twenty-five cents." Per haps he gets the package. There are at once crieB of "open it," "let's see what you've got," etc. If the buyer agrees to open the package there is a rush to see its contents. Uae man for forty-five cents got a valise which contained a &20 suit of clothes and other furnishings Another man bouarht for fifteen oents a box of good cigars. Ushers gave ratner ianoy prices for Dockages which contained old shoes, clothes, patient medioines and advertis ing cards At each lucky hit there were cries of pleasure; at each discon fiture of a purchaser by a poor bargain there was derisive laughter. But the interest never nieeea. reopio iwcre wild to see what each package contained One or two men had hammers and chisels in their hands and were glad to have the privilege of opening anybody's packages. It goes j to show how great and how general is the inquisitiv eness of the human race DEPOSED. PRINCE ALEXANDER OF BUL -! GARIA NO LONGER RULES. BIS DEPOSITION AMAZES SUliOrE AND WAY CAU8K SShlOU? TROUBI.88. London, August 23 Tho Times' Vienna correspondent says: The story of , tbe depoiuQn of Prince Alexander is told as follows: Karaveloff, the prime minister,' entered the palace, at S fia and explained to Prince Alexander that the public opinion bf Bulgaria was dissatis fied with his policy and demanded his deposition. j Prince Alexander said: "I see no friends; I eannot resist." 'Public meetings have been held in Sofia and Rustehuk, and in all of them the proclamation of the change of gov ernment was received with favor. The people rejoice over the coup, whioh they say ended an intolerable situation. The, Bulgarians are persuad ed that Russia will now assist them to consummate a onion which they think it : is Turkey's desisign to fustrate. Prince Alexander was taken completely by surprise, lie was astounded at tbe sudden bursting of the plot upon him. Karaveloff had managed the whole affair with such secrecy that the only indication of the coming storm was a mutinous spirit noticeable among the troops. Prince Alexander had ordered to be stopped the circulation of papers among them which openly declared that he alone was the only obstacle to a union? but his orders in this regard were not obeyed. The affection of the common people for Prince Alexander, personally, remains undiminished. A' telegram from Bucharest says the Rou melians are very much excited over the Bulgarian crisis-- King Charles is per sonally presiding over a special meeting of the cabinet which he has only just summoned, and premier Bratiano is re turning from Govdra with all possible speed. Ex. Petersburg, August 23 The Russian press was less surprised at the deposition of Prince Alcxaudcr than it was when lloumciia revolted in 1885, the newspapers . here, generally, for some time pust having believed that the political tension in Bulgaria fore shadowed a catastrophe. The Vlodom esti fcays : "Russia must now speak her weighty word if she does not wi&h to lotso control of Bulgarian destinieB. The Novosti says that it is high- y probable that Russia will intervene directly, and establish a new ordor of things in Bulgaria, and adds : "With Alexander deposed Bulgarian sympathy with Russia will revive." Most of the RuaeUn paper x observe that the foreign press manifests a confusion of ideas respecting the relations between the three emperors. boriA, August 2.. lhe government a proclamation announcing the deposition of Prince Alexander, and tho reasons therefor, declares that he rendered great .a :ai ... i services on the held ot D&tue, out po- itioally he had too little regard for Bulgaria's position as a Slav State and, the maintenance of relations with Russia. His deposition on this account was a necessity. .Bucharest, -August Z6. Advices from Sofia say that KaravelofTs provis- onal government, realizing that public sentiment remained favorable to Prince Alexander, caused a circular to bo : distributed among the people, called the "ministerial list, containing the names of prominent men of all par ties and classes; who, the document de clared, were in the new movement, the purpose being to causo the belief that the government was reoeiving general support. Such a combination is not con sidered possible, as many of those named are. known to hold Buch dinerent views as to render their coalition impossible. lhe garrison at Shumla remains faith ful io Prince Alexander and refuses to recognize the provisional government. Numbers of BulgaruDS and prominent Russophobists have already fled to Roumania. The fugitives inc'ude in their number; many Russian nihilists who were serving as officers on the Bul garian flotilla.' It is now believed thit Prince Alexander is confiaed in a monas tery nearSofii It is rumored that premier rtaxaveloff has been ;placcd under arrest. Only certain telegrams tor Russia are permitted to leave Bulgarian territory. Ieatb of a Prominent Knight of Labsr. Chicago, Angust 23. J. D.
