All the troops hastened to the trenches in expectation of a gen eral attack. The Seventeenth regi ment, the Twelfth regiment and the Iowa regiment participated in the en gagement, but did not advance be yond the outposts. After an hour the Filipinos fired rockets, apparently as a signal to cease firing; but there were scattering shots all-night, which kept the Americans under arms The enemy's loss was not discoverable, but was probably small. The Amer icans were guided in their shooting only by the flashes ofihe rebel rifles.

Number of Lives Lost Much Property Destroyed. By Telegraph to the Horning Star. Calvert, Texas, July 1. The most disastrous storm for several years in this district occurred last night- The streams and rivers around here over flowed their banks and much property" was destroyed by tire floods. A num ber of lives were lost. So far onlv five bodies have been recovered, all negroes. A large number of houses in the lower part of the city are flooded. The railroad bridges at both ends of the town have been destroyed. It is reported that the Little and Big Brazos rivers hare met It is impos sible to get between the two rivers to ascertain the extent of the damage in the intervening country. The water is said to be from sixteen to twenty feet deep in many places. In the Calvert coal mine camp it is six feet. The damage to property is incalcu lable. It ii still raining. Dalaas, Texas, July 1. Late to night the Dallas News received the following by telephone from Calvert, Texas, "From all reports every bridge with in a radius of ten mles from here has been swept away. The rescuing par ties are still at work. This evening a family of four were taken from a tree at the coal mine camps after having been in their place of safety for twelve hours. The convicts who were employed at the mines were carried in boats to Milam county. Three negroes were added to the list of drowned to day. There are probably many more drowned whose bodies will not be re covered until the water falls. The rain has ceased, but the clouds are threatening. GOVERNMENT EXPENDITURES. Exceeded Receipts Oaly $oS,895,989 Dot iofthe Fiscal Year. By Telegraph to the Morning- 8tar. Washixgtos, July L. Contrary to expectations of Treasury officials, the government expenditures during the fiscal year closed yesterday exceeded the receipts by only IS8, 875, 989. .One month ago the officials predicted that the deficit might not exceed $100,000, 000, but at no time up to a few days ago was it expected the amount would be less than $95,000,000. This unlooked-for result is accounted for by exceptionally heavy receipts from customs and internal sources and a marked, falling off in expenditures. It is not expected that this condition will continue during the coming months when the new appropriations become available. A deficit for July may be looked for, although there was a surplus for the month of June of $15,744,153. Y0UNQ DESPERADO. A ThlrteeflYear0!d Boy Murdered His Mother and Sister. By Telegraph to ue morning Star. Athens, Ala., July 1. A thirteen-year-old boy named Thomas, living on a farm several miles in the interior, last night stabbed and killed his oldest sister, who had quarrelled with him for not helping support the family. The boy then turned on his aged mother, who had come to her daughter's as sistance, and slashed her so terribly she died in a short time. A few months ago the boy and his father were out hunting, when the lat ter was shot in the back and killed. The boy was suspected of killing his father, but no conclusive evidence could be secured. Young Thomas fled and so far has eluded capture. YELLOW FEVER LN HAVANA. Flfty-aiae Cases aad Foorteea Deaths to Jane 30 th. Kr Telegraph to the Horning star. "WASHrsQTOJC, July 1.

Address R. a. Grady & Co., Bargaw, N. C t CAPTAIN DREYFUS TAKEN TO RENNES Landed Secretly at Wight ; From the French-Cruiser Sfax. - " ' HURRIED ACROSS-COUNTRY. Under Oaard of Military aad Gendarmes. K Crowd Waited Aroond the Prison, Bat There Was No Demonstra tion Meetlnx Mrs. Dreyf as. Br Cable to the Wornlns 8tar. Rennes, Fraxoe, July 4. Dreyfus arrived here at 6. A. M-, via LYOrient and Radon. The prisoner eppeared to be in good health. He wore a blue suit, a grey overcoat and soft felt bat. His hair is turning grey and his beard is of a reddish color. He held himself very erect. The landing was almost unnoticed. At 9 o'clock yesterday evening the guardship Caudan went to sea to meet the Sfax, which nad been sighted. The unusual bustle attracted many people to the harbor, but aa they saw nothing the crowd dispersed. The only persons remaining were those who knew where the prisoner was to be landed. The weather was stormy and for a time it was feared it would be impossible to effect a landing. For hours the lights of the Caudan -and Sfax were plainly visible, aa the ves sels pitched and rolled. It seemed im possible to approach them in the rough sea. Dreyfus Landed, Finally, at 1 A. M., a cutter manned by ten men and in charge of naval offi cii s, put. off from the Caudan and went alongside th Sfax. Thence the boat rowed to the shore, where Drey fus was landed at 1.30 A. M. A company of infantry was drawn up at the landing point Dreyfus, who had been brought ashore in the boat, was immediately placed under the guard of a captain of engineers and a sergeant and corporal of gendarmes, who formally handed the prisoner over to M. Viguie. The latter then entered a landau with Dreyfus and two detec tives and started for the railroad sta tion, which they reached without in cident. The train stopped at Rabelais, three kilometers from Rennes. There the party alighted and quickly entered a carriage, - drawn by . two splendid horses, which immediately started at a sharp pace. If was then 5.34 A. M. At the Leave crossing of the line, a wagonette containing the prefect of IIl-Et-Vilaine, M. Viguie and three in spectors joined the party. The woman in charge of the cross ing, when told that if "she watched she would see Dreyfus, asked: "Who is Dreyfus! 1 have never even heard of him." Taken to Reanes. The drive from Rabelais to Rennes was without incident Owing to the precautions taken, the prisoner and his escort passed unnoticed in front of the arsenal. Workmen . reading the posters there did not turn their beads, httle suspecting who was passing. The clock was stiking six when the crowd which had been waiting since midnight around the prison, saw a landau surrounded by gendarmes be yond the station. Then they all cried with one voice: "There he is.'" At this cry the people started off to meet the carriage and suddenly the troops and mounted gendarmes hur ried madly forward, yelling and shout ing as if accompanying a fire engine instead of escorting a prisoner. The carriage was driven so fast that it covered the distance in a few minutes, passing the watchers like a flash. It was a race for the prison gates between the gendarmes with the captive and the spectators. The gates then opened suddenly and about twenty gendarmes rushed out and barred the street, press ing back the crowd with rifle stocks. A Wild Scene, The transformation from tranquility to a wild scene of gesticulation almost defies description. But beyond the exclamations of surprise and curiosity there were no cries of any sort raised. Preceded by his guards, Dreyfus entered the prison, was formally con signed to the care of the governor and was taken to a cell on the second floor of the prison. Though rain was fall ing heavily all night, the sun shone out brightly when Dreyfus en tered-the prison. The governor of the prison sent Madame Dreyfus the news of the ar rival of her husband and she imme diately went to the governor and asked permission to see the prisoner. Leave being granted the faithful wife en tered the prison almost unobserved and was conducted to cell No. 830. ac companied by Madame HaveL Meeting Mrs. Dreyfns. The meeting between the lone Darted husband and wife can better be im agined than described. Naturally, it was most touching. Both Drevfus and his wife were deeply affected. They remained long clasped in each others arms, tears and smiles intermingling wua tender endearments. Madame Dreyfus issued from the prison in a state of collapse. She found her husband much aged, with beard and hair whitened andbjdy shrunken and stooped.- She said Dreyfus knew nothing of the events of the past two years. lne weeping wife acknowledged the ' courtesy with which she had been treated. The gendarme who was ordered to be present at the interview; carried out instructions, and kept at a discreet distance. LYNCHERS SENTENCED. One Six and the Others Five Years Each lathe Penitentiary.

This action was taken upon representations from Sheriff. Gray, of Williams county General Manager Sam Brush; of the St. .Louis and Big Muddy Coal Com panies and a prominent citizen of that section of the country, who teler graphed the acting Governor that the sheriff was powerless to keep the peace and the troops were necessary.- Su perintended Brush telegraphed late this afternoon from Cartersville as fol lows: s "We are' surrounded by a few men who constantly fire Winchesters.' They shoot into our houses and alone the road where our employes pass. All our, men, women snd children are so terrorized that they will not go to their homes, and have not eaten or slept since yesterday. The sheriff seems powerless. We must have the militia i(ttmediately." Qther reports from Carterville say that firing still continues. Both sides are well armed and determined, and the sheriff is powerless. Only the presence of State troops, it is asserted will prevent the loss of many lives. Negroes Attsck Union City. Carboxdalk, Ills., July 1. Union City, a smalltown, built and occupied by Union miners, near here, was burned at mid-night after a battle be tween the Union men and imported negro miners who were fired upon yesterday. Seeking revenge for the killing of a woman and the wounding of twenty men in their party the negroes raided Union City at mid night They opened fire on the homes of the union men. The latter promptly replied. The battle lasted until the union miners were driven from their home3 and took refuge in a clump of timber, close to the village. The nou-union men at once applied theVorch and the village was destroyed. The negroes then, advanced on the woods, where the union miners were concealed, and until daylight a fusUade was kept up between the factions. No lives have so far been reported lost in the en gagement. Reinforcements have gone to the aid of the union miners. Critical Situation at Carbondale. SPREjarrtxD, III., July 1. Acting Governor Warder late to-night re ceived the following dispatch from Sheriff Gray, dated Marion, Illinois; "Conditions are worse. A man is here from Carbondale begiring for help for Brush, and he is begging me. I am powerless. I am sure there will be a big fight soon. Ammunition and guns came to the strikers on the 9 o'clock train. They are fixing to wipe out the Brush miners to-night. Get us help as soon as possible." 'Sheriff Gray telegraphed an hour later that the Brush mines were sur rounded by 250 men. Acting Gover nor Warder telegraphed Sheriff Gray that the Carbondale company would get their guns at midnight and be at Carterville soon after. The Mount Vernon company will arrive about the same time. BASE BALL BULLETIN. Scores of the Qsmes Played by the Clubs Yesterday. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Washixoton, July l.

Though theret seems to be little doubt in the minds of-any one as to its success, the Constitutional Amendment is of course the issue around -which the fight will be waged.- Senator Pritchard, in his anti-amendment- letter, soon after adjournment of the, Legislature, threw down the gauntlet, and the Republican party could not now, even it would, r escape tne issue. . .

All these, and yet it is nearly a year until tne nominating convention will be held and more than a year till the election. From this it can be seen that the next State convention will be a fine one and some pretty politics will bs played in it. The fact that three western men are being urged by their friends for the Senatorship shows that the West is not inclined to await the expiration of Senator Ir'ritcnarp s term to put in its claim. Populists at Sea. As to the Popu lists, such of them as there are, tney are completely at sea, hunting for standing room somewhere between the other two parties. No body ' knows how many of them there are, whether there are any at all or not. A State official who has been .prominent in Populist councils says there are not less .than 40,000 straight Populists in the State and as many more with Populistic leanings. Their policy in the next campaign, he thinks, will be to nomi nate a straight middle of the road tickeVdenounce the State administra tion of both the old parties, favor expansion, oppose trusts, advocate free sil ver and government ownership. As to the Constitutional Amendment, the voter will be left free to vote as he thinks proper. A majority of them, he thinks, will vote for it.
