' Houston, Texas, Bepteiniier 11 Com munioation bv wire is established with Galveston. The city is under strict law and guards now patrol the entire city Force is employed to compel burial quads to take np the dead bodies and load them on drays to be hauled In whore they eau be placed on barges. The barges are then attached to t'ugi. and are towed far out Into the gulf where the bodies are weighted and sunk This IS a heart rending act to the sur vivors but Is Imperative. The Mayor i f Galveston is taking steps to protect th llylng from the after effects of the disas ter which a pestilence would expose th thirty-3ve thousand survivors of the great disaster. Hundreds of corpes are found drifting oa the tide. Many of the dead were bar led in the moonlight without sem blance of religious ceremony Or prayer The work is done at times at the poini of the bayonet. The heat is groat. No water Is to be had In Galveston savo that which i brought by beats, the cisterns and tan li bel all swept away or filled with sab water from the sea. No meat or vege tables are available yet, the people living on canned goods that escaped spoiling. The government has sent t'lirty-flve thousand rations to bo distributed anion;; the neady. The War Department send 10,000 tents for Immediate use for tin mlTerers. An order has been issued framing the requv3l. The touts will b tent from San Antonio and Jefferson Barracks, Missouri. It was reported that nil of Battery E. thirst Artillery except 15 men drowned riiis is an error. None of the soldior was lost. It Is expocted that marshal law will le ieclared in the city and Island. It will lake a week to count the dead and the missing aud to get anything near ai idea of the loss. It ie safe to assum that ouo half of the property of tho cltj s wiped out, and that ono half of tli residents havo to faco poverty. Few ol ho buildings escaped Injury. There I- hardly a habitable dry house in the city The whole of the hustues. front foi three blocks from the gulf was stripped ol every vestige of habitation, every struc ture having been either carried ont t a or its ruins piled far Into the town the larecat structures, supposed to be the most substantially built, saffored lb woist.

Washington, Sept. 10. - The develop ments of the day in the Chinese situation point to a speedy withdrawal of the United Status troops from China. General (!hnff has a Ided the weight of his opinion to that already entertained by many nlHckls here. It is i-lgulflcant that the C'eneral' statement on Ibis point was given publicity by the Admin istration. No confirmation Is at hand here of a report thai Great Krilain and Germany have joined in an agreement to rtmaln together In Peklu regardless of the at titude Of 'he otbor powers. Should this b ! true, the fact doubtless would hasten the rearward movement of the Auieiican troops, for there Is a firm determination to avoid becoming' involved in any clash among the powers, such as might rea sonably bo expected to follow the exe cution of tills reported nrltlah-'lemisn program. The Crop Report. lUl.itiuH, Sept. 11. -The crop and weather report for this date Issued to- lay, for the week ended last nlgbl.by the government, says all the reporla of cor respondents were unfavorable. 1 here was almoBl an entire absence of rain dur ing the week, and, allliough the nights nave becomo somewhat cooler, the days nave been cloudless and the sun bright and hot; the maximum temperatures rose above 00 during the last few days, and the man for the week was over 6' above normal. These conditions have necessarily caused a further deteriora tion In such crops as peanuts, sweet pn lalnes, field peas, and some late corn, which were expected to yield fairly good crops under favorable circumstances, The saving of fodder Is nearly over, and the yield Is of poor quality and short, Fall plowing has sgstn ceased, and pre parations for planting winter wheat, oata, and rye are vary backward. A targe number of correspondents report that springs, small streams and Wells have dried op, and Jn tome iosUnoes stock suffering forwster. The consumption water in some towns bu been curtailed by order. ; . ' Cotton Is now from one-half to two- thirds open, and Is being picked rapidly as the supply of labor will per mil; In many sections eolton Is open from top to bottom, and elsewhere it opening so fast that fields will be picked clean nearly a month earlier, than usnaL The condition of corn can not change materially nowt the crop is very poor, the weather was favorable for. saving fodder.
