NO SIGN OF EVACUATION PEOPLE S STORE Owing to the Storm, There Was No Welcoming Demonstration. About 10 o'clock last night, the Darktown Fire Co. and the Leek Cornet band arrived home from Allentown, victorious, but drenched to the skin. Most of the members wore an ingenious water-shedding dress made of table oil cloth. Owing to the very'stormy weather, there was no demonstration. We suggest that the company give a giotesque parade some evening in the near future, to show the people In their own town how they make people in other towns laugh. It Is a long time since they paraded here, and the .citizens would appreciate an exhibition from them. There is no doubt that all the merchants would hunt up their red light pans. There were six other Darktown companies in line in the parade Thursday, but as far as the prize was concerned they might just as well have been out of it. It has also been learned that member William Bliss took a prize of $50 for being the largest man in line. The Darktowns will hold a business meeting next Tuesday night and should consider the matter of giving their home town a parade.

On the Ulster and Delaware railroad a number of bad washouts occurred, notably at Phoenicia.

Neweliwang, Oct. 10.—The troops ol the Kusslan garrison, headed by theii band, playing national airs, paraded the principal streets of the foreign and Chinese settlements yesterday ostentatiously, as . though to emphasize tiltfact that the Russians are still governors of this port. Employers Principles Laid Down, Paterson, N. J„ Oct. 10.—The sky is overcast and it 13 thought that a further downpour is coming. Should more rain fall the high water mark of March, 1902, will doubtless be passed and the ccnsequent damage be appalling. The worst damage thus far has been in the low-lying portion of the city, comprising Water, Bridge, Goodwin and Washington streets. Hundreds were driven from their homes in this district by the rising waters, which now retch in many cases the first floors. Mayor Hinchllffe hired Appollo hall for the refuge of the homeless ones. Many who had not tasted food for 12 or 14 hours are being fed there. The Rodgers Locomotive Works, the local silk mill and a number of other Industries were obliged to shut down. The damage to railroads is considerable. The Erie system and the Susquehanna railroad are completely tied up. The Lsckawanna is running some trains between here and Hoboken, but none west of here. The estimated loss is J $50,000. Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 10.—At the meeting of national officers of the building trades national and International organizations here a general plan for the creation of what will be known as the Structural Building Trades Aliiance of America was agreed upon. It Is estimated that 1,000,000 men who are members of the building trades will be affected by the alliance.

For hours tlic storm lias raged here with fury, and much damage has been done through out the city. In the lower Chesapeake two three masted schooners have been blown ashore, one near Lynn Haven inlet aiul tlie other near Little Creek inlet. The mainland is flooded to such an extent by the high tide that It is impossible to get near enough the vessels to distinguish their Identity. The streets in the lower part of the city are flooded, and In many cases residents, are compelled to secure boats to leave thcii homes. Spaniola, 5c Cigar, at Gillespie's only.

Mine Workers Will Receive Increase Third.—To safeguard, protect and watch over the interests of members ol the organizations affiliated. Russia Grasping Valuable Property. of Six Per Cent, for September. Prof. Nelll, the anthracite sliding scale commissioner, has reported that, ur.der the award of the strike commission, the miners are to receive an Increase of six per cent, on the standard wages, on account of the increased average price received, for coal during September. This is an increase of one per cent, over the sliding scale for August. The Itussian government Is obtaining much valuable real estate from the Chinese guilds ut ridiculously cheap prices by official pressure. All events support the prediction that Kussla intends to remain here. Fourth.—To protect the autonomy ol the several trades represented. New .York, Oct. 10.—This city Is slowly recovering from the effects of tlio torrential rain which continued with scarcely any intermission for thirty-six hours, during which time the unprecedented precipitation of 10.04 inches was recorded at the local- weather bureau. Fifth.—To keep agreements with employers inviolable. FREE Two Lives Lost by Landslide. Poughkeepsio, N. Y., Oct. to.—John Cooper, aged forty-five, and Fred Smith, aged eighteen, railroad hands, were killed by a landslide on the West Shore railroad opposite this city.

A number of washouts and landslides have occurred on both the New York Central and West Shore railroads. Sixth.—To avoid and discourage strikes if possible and to prevent Internal strife and friction in the building trades indiistry. The situation naturally engenders constant friction between the consuls and ltussinn officials. At least eight lives were sacrificed in accidents caused by the deluge, a dozen persons are missing, and property Worth many millions of dollars was destroyed.Seventh.—To oppose the formation ot dual and rival bodies, demand their complete annihilation and assist only such unions as are affiliated with their respective national or International unions conforming to this declaration of principles. The foreign residents under the treaties with China are subject only to the laws dt their governments administered by their consijls. If Itussian sovereignty be recognized the foreigners will lose their extra territorial lights to become controlled by ltusslun laws, the prospect of whicfi causes great dissatisfaction. The uncertainty regarding the future Is handicapping commercial projects. The merchants complain thaj their governments appear to forgei that Newchwang is a fourth part ol China In the volume of Its foreign trade and that their interests require u speedy settlement of the existing nnomaloui situation, which lins been prolonged three years and has caused them greut losses.

Come and try Never before in the history of New York has such n flood of water swept through her streets within so short a time. The highest previous record was on Dec. 23, 1882, when 0.17 Inches fell. That was nearly four Inches less than yesterday's record, and the difference Itself crowded Into the same period of time would make a very respectable flood. All along the river front and in many sections of Brooklyn cellars were flooded and an enormous amount of damage done. A great portion of the subway was badly flooded.

Suburban steam and trolley lines, with liardly an exception, were crippled by floods and washouts, and thousands of suburban residents were unable to reach their otftces in the city. Those who were fortunate enough to cross the ferries found further progress blocked by the submerged condition of the water front streets, across which they were ferried in trucks und wagons.All This Week The scheme of the maneuvers about Port Arthur Is for the fleet and army to prevent an attempt by a hostile army to effect a landing from transports protected by n hostile fleet The maneuvers occurring on the date that the other- governments are looking for the evacuation of Manchuria are regarded as significant and perhaps intended as an object lesson to Japan of Russia's preparedness to meet an Invasion.
