TORONTO, Ontario, March 14.—Dis- patches from Western Toronto tell of the overflowing of the Grand and the Thomas Rivers, causing serious damage along their valleys. Sections of London, Brantford and Galt are completely submerged to a depth of from five to seven feet. In London over 1500 people have been driven from their homes. Bridges and buildings were swept away by the rushing torrent. In Brantford, firemen and citizens fought the raging waters all of yesterday but were finally beaten out, and West Brantford 1s a regular lake. At Galt, a heavy loss was sustained by the business people. The ice jam in the Grand River gave way and the flood fol- lowing it tore away bridges and trees and wrecked a number of factories and private residences. ll PLAGUE SPOT IN THE HEART OF ST.

Active Preparations to Be in Readiness for War, if It Is Forced Upon the Nation. > - See eee Sa 5 PS IE te te —"We hope for peace, but we are prepared for war,” said Secretary L to- day. We have advices which warrant us in saying that we can get all hhips we want or need. While negotiations are still in progress, they are so Sree that we can secure ships at an hour's notice. | “Every preparation is being hastened for a possible emergency. Arrangements for the trausformation of merchant vessels into protected cruisers have been prac- tically completed.” The events of the past two or three days are not regarded here as a peon “bluff.” They prompt preparations to be ready for war. . The ordering of Gen. Miles to the field with a big staff and the sudden shift- ing of troops to the coast cities is not a peace measure. This means the practical and costly abandonment of the headquarters at San Antonio and the sudden build- ing up to the largest in the country of Fort McPherson at Atlanta. - Options have been secured on buildings for storehouses. Shipping schedules have been rearranged, making Atlanta a basing point. Railroad men from that section have been consulted and everything possible is being done to build up within a few days a great military station. In fact, it is the first great move toward putting our army on a figitting basis. Further orders in the movement of troops are being prepared. * When President McKinley issued his orders rearranging the States of the Union into military groups he marked a new epoch in the-history of our national defense. He may also have indicated a new departure in the foreign policy of this country. Such a-rearrangement was the necessary forerunner of such change if it was to be made. War with a European power, annexation of foreign territory, enforcement of demands upon foreign governments—these do not mean a regular army engaged in police patrol—th¢ey mean effective defense of the boundaries of the country. This is the real significance of the rearrangement of the military departments of thé United States. Spain has simply forced the United States to do in a hurry what would have been done gradually in course of time. Its significance, however, is none the less; in fact, it may be considered ag an indication that the Administration at Washington has little or no hope of escaping a conflict with Spain. It is one of the most serious steps yet taken in preparing for war. BATTERY K, FIRST ARTILLERY, ORDERED TO GALVESTON. Special to the Post-Dispatch.

She still wants it—and needs it worse every day. The insurgents refuse to be seduced by an autonomy so farcical that the majority of its own officers ask for radical changes, and its bitterest opponents, the volunteers, are being decorated by Spain, instead of being disarmed. The feeling here is uneasy. The air is heavy with vague rumors and everyone prays for a quick finish to the American Inquiry Court's labors. The anti-American sentiment is growing day by day. Scurrillous pamphlets increase, and now some really are written by Spaniards. The Post-Dispatch’s disclosure that the ship was broken in two is pyblicly acknowledged to be true in the Commercio, a rabid Spanish shopkeepers’ journal. The article undertakes to show that an interior explosion did it. A large case of surgical instruments belonging to Surgeon Hennaberge of the Maine was foung on the hills of Cabanas, hilf a mile from the wreck. A small looking-glass was the only thing in it that was broken. “I do not propose longer to be a party to a useless sacrifice of lives.” That was what Walter B. Barker, the United States Consul at Sagua la Grande, wrote January 2, and it is the ground upon wch-he lately’sent his resignation to Washington. The letter proves that he did not resign on account of any friction with Gen. Lee, as*has been reported. Sagua is a hotbed of ultra Spaniards: Thousands of Cubans have starved to death there without a helping hand from a Spanish merchant. Even the Amer- ican Government relief for its destitute citizens only came in pitiable driblets. Mr, Barker has seen nothing but Cuban misery and Spanish hatred and he is sick of it. .Like a brave man, he says so and acts so. From the moment of the disaster the Maine’s officers have been disgusted with Congosto. Their messages, they say, were mysteriously held, and on any matter involving a discussion between the State Department and the Spanish legation Congosto’s telegraph somehow always got through in time for Charge d’Affaires Du Bose in Washington to rush to the State Department and get promises which proved ohly advantageous in gaining tite for Spain, #&when Capt. Sigsbee’s or Lee’s advices on the same subject got fo the Secretary of State or of the Navy. Neither Spaniards, Cubans nor Americans admire Congosto. SYLVESTER SCOVEL, Special Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch. ALMOST CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF MINES IN HAVANA HARBOR. The Post-Dispatch has lately shown that tons of dynamite and other high ex- plosives were shipped to Havana from St. Louis and Philadelphia in Novem- ber, 18096. While this significant announcement set the country thinking and was in- evitably connected in the public mind with the loss of the Maine, it was not then possible to state that these engincs of death had been actually laid down in Havana harbor. The facts necessary to connect the shipments with the laying of the mines } were furnished to the Post-Dispatch readers yesterday in an interview at New- port News with Capt. Gronmeyer of the German ship Castilia. Capt. Gronmeyer declared that the entire sheet of water from Moro Castle to the docks of the city was completely covered with a network of submarine ship-destroyers two years ago. The work of laying these mines, he said, was done under the personal supervision of Spanish officers. . The Post-Dispatch correspondent at Newnoort News was ordered to further interview the captain, and here is what he says: ree Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEWPORT NEWS, March !4.—I have obtained positive confirmation of the statement that the Havana harbor is not a desirable place even for ships of a friendly nation. Capt. Gronmeyer of the Castilia declares that thousands of pounds of dynamite and gun cotton are under the surfage of the water. “Havana harbor is loaded with mines,” he said. know it, because I saw the work done.”’ “Did the authorities permit you to look on while the harbor was being mined?” “They could not help themselves very well. On arriving at the entrance to the harbor my ship was suddenly brought to a stop by signals from Moro Castle and from the shore opposite. “A government tug shot out from under the shadows of the walls of the fort and ‘placed a pilot aboard. I asked the Spaniard for an: explanation for this pro- ceedure, never efore having been stopped in that» manner-on my previous, voyages. | “The pilot informed me that I would have to take an anchorage ground for some hours, because the government was having the entire harbor mined and it would be dangerous ‘¥ me to\ proceed. “We dropped anchor just \joutside of the fort and were delayed for some time before perthission was given to enter. “From the deck of my ship I saw probably several hundred long, cylindrical shells laid in that harbor. Each shell, I presume, was about 20 inches ‘long and about eight inches in diam@ter. “At the end of each was a long wire, which was connected with the shore on both sides. The mines were put down in blocks: not very far apart. The work was done by marine engineers and divers. I knew then that they were acting under orders from the Spanish Government. “The wires were actually so close together that a ship at any point in the harbor could be blown to atoms. Looking glasses were arranged so that an officer on shore could tell when a vessel was over a mine, & “Spaniards are lazy people, and it is my opinion that a wire rusted and al- lowed the mine to be carried further into the harbor by a swift undercurrent r the wire was cut by some designing person. This mine may have lodged oO under the Maine. It may have exploded in various ways.’ The Castilia will proceed to-day for Hamburg, to which place her cargo is requ t. Gronmeyer is well-known at Atlantic ports and there is no reason to Ca doubt his statement about the condition _of Havana harbor. TWO BRAZILIAN WARSHIPS BOUGHT BY THE UNITEDSTATE §$ LONDON.

The succession of daint!ly arranged “‘try- ing-on’’ or pattern rooms which line the partment have been remodeled and freshly rnished. In one of these rooms is an ex- quisitely lovely hat of black fancy braid straw, trimmed with a ecarf of creamy’ point ducheese lace over white chiffon. The quaintiy turned brim is faced with rough white straw, while to the crown two foamy ya which white ostrich plumes are fastened round marquise buckle, This hat bears the mark of ‘‘Loults,”’ one of the most noted milliners tn Paris, is the pride of the Barr collection.

COUNTERFEITING IN THE “PEN.” Charles Lewis Will Probably Be Used by the Government to Ferret Out the Gang at Jeffer- son City. Charles Lewis, the negro who claims that counterfeiting is being carried on In the Missouri Penitentiary, and who was ar- rested charged with the same crime, was given a hearing before United States Com- missioner Gray, Monday, and was held for the Federal grand jury in the sum of $1500. Lewis did not take the stand to testify in his own behalf. His attorney, W. K. Harvey, pre-arranged with Secret Service Officer Murphy for him not to say anything regarding the penitentiary affair at this hearing. He was told that he would be bound over to the grand jury anyway and that until a thorough investigation af his story was had nothing could be done, It is reported that Lewis is to be released on bond, to be furnished by the secret serv- ice department, and that he is to act as detective, with one of the department men, in exposing the alleged crime of the con- victs at Jefferson. Lewis told a Post-Dispatch reporter that if the Government would appreciate it he could tell something and mention certain names of guards in connection that would create a stir. It is thought that to keep this from getting public, Lewis was advised not to tesify in his own behalf. he Government Inspection Department can Keep him under their surveillance; he can work with the detectives as other ‘“‘stool pigeons’’ similariy situated have done, and if his story does not pan out, he can be returned to the custody of Marshal Lynch, here, his bond canceled, and re- manded to jail. It we said that this arrangement would prevail in the investigation of the alleged counterfeiting at the State prison. There were a number of Government de- tectives and Federal Building officials pres- ent at Lewis’ hearing. He wore a new suit of cheviot, new shoes and a fedora. When asked where he got them he said that he had friends. John Connor and John Monroe, the white men who traveled ‘“‘overland’’ with him from Jefferson City, and who were arrested at Washington, Mo., told how they met Lewis at Jefferson City; that he had pockets full of dollars and haif dollars that were spuri- ous, and they related his statements to them regarding the penitentiary affair; also regarding the shipping of the box of stuff and molds to 2102 Randolph street, this city. Deputy United States Marshal Edward Brennan testified to finding the chest and the prisoner, the latter fiding under a bed. Walter Nall, assistant to Marshal Lynch, told of the tracing of the negro and the chest. Lewis did not seem surprised to hear his companions tell all they knew about him. He whispered to a Post-Dispatch reporter that he was willing enough to do it him- self, but that he had been told not to. He eaid that some one had sent _ Attorney Har- vey to him, and that both of them had had a talk with Secret Service Offiter Murphy, and that he was looking into the case. e said that his lawyer would get bond for hi m. Mr. Murphy was an interested spectator at the hearing, and whispered occasionally with the prosecuting attorney, Mr. An- thony. But he refused to say anything for publication. He warded off inquiry by saying that he had juet taken up the case. ie assistant, Mr. Guerney, testified as to the queer money. The make was good and the aiah excellent. Lewis was not returned to the ay jail at the close of the hearing. He will testify against Connors and Monroe at their hear- ing Tuesday. DIED SUDDENLY IN BED. John M.

Hie attempted to commit guictde tn the Turkish bath of’ the Southern Hotel Sun- day morning. Specht has been drinking to excess since he came to St. Louis four weeks ago, and the attempt upon his own life was the climax of the spree. Kd Specht is well remembered here, al- though his family left St. Louls some years ago after figuring in a number of incidents which entailed them much no- toriety. The family ts now widely scat- tered. Mr. Specht, the father i# living in Gunston Hall, Va., on the aggre at banks of the Potomac. His wife is in Mon- treal, Canada, devoting her time to the study of theosophy and charitable work, A married daughter res'des in St. Louls and Mrs. Adele Speccat Is at school in Georgetown, D. C. Since the disruption of the Specht fam'ly Ed Specht has been living in New York. When he came to St. Louis four weeks ago it was his first visit to his old home since he left it.

He put up at the St. James Hote), and if he had business to jook after he neglected It, Inatead he began to add to the founda- tion of a spree he la‘d before he reached the city. A week after his arrival he reported at the Four Courts one morning that he had been attacked and robbed while in a cab on Chestnut street, and he had a badly battered countenance and empty pockets to submit as evidence. Saturday night, when he went to his room at the St. James, he was nervous and ap- peared to be in a bed way generally. e aroused the office about 4 o’clock in the morning by dashing downstairs in a bath- robe and shouting with all the power of his lungs that hundreds of devils were after him, seeking his life. He wae quieted and induweed to go back to his rgom, but he dressed himself, and a few minutes later he went across the street to the Southern Hotel Turkish baths. He asked for a knife as he was assigned to a dressing room, but none being handy, _ihe attendant did not supply his want.

GRAND REPUBLIC LOST feiting, Identified by Her as One She Had Long Believed to Be Dead. -_-——— There was a pathetic reunion of long separated brother and sister at the city jail entrance, Monday morning. Mrs. Susan J. Scott of 1013 Lafayette street reached the Four Courts just in time to see her brother, John Connor, al- the wreck. I atm not @ criminal, and T love my brothers and sisters and my par- ents, hoped to get up in the world, and as my ambition was not realized, pride kept me from revealing my whereabouts and my struggles to my relatives.”’ Connor will be given a hearing before United States Commissioner Gray Tuesday Monday he was used as a witness in the ease of the negro Chas.

It was the first time Mrs. Scott had seen her brother for fourteen years. He was then a small boy in knee pants. Mrs. Scott visited the Four Courts not knowing positively that the John Connor, charged with counterfeiting, was the John Connor whom she had had cherished as a baby brother years ago. She only knew from reading the papers that a John Con- nor was a Federal prisoner in the jail. She hoped he was her brother, because she had mourned him as dead for several years, Yet that hope was clouded by sorrow, for she dreaded to think of the little brother she remembered so fondly being behind the bars of a jail. Thus with anticipations of joy, almost overbalanced by bitter forebodings, Mrs. Scott timidly applied to Deputy Jailer Wagner for permission to see John Connor, so she could free her mind of suspense re- garding the prisoner's identity. A shadow of sorrow crossed the woman's pleasant countenance when the deputy jailer informed her that a permit from the United States Marshal's office was neces- sary in order to see a Federal prisoner, “I can hardly walit,”’ she said. A Post-D'‘spatch reporter saw Connor in the jail five minutes later. “Your sister, Susan Scott, you,”’ said the reporter. “My God! Is ghe claimed. ‘IT cannot have my sister come in such a place as this,” the prisoner continued, “but under other circumstances I would be overjoyed to see her.’’ ears sprang to Connor's eyes fully five minutes he was silent, Then as he peered out through the bars he said: “Tell my sister I'm not in here; tell her wants to see or here’ Connor. ex- and for tell her—no. don’t do that, but say to her that 1 am her brother and that 1 will see her as soon as possibie.” This information was conveyed to Mrs. Scott. who stood waiting at the outer en- trance, separated from her brother only by the doors of tron*and the bars. ’ excitedly exclaimed “IT must see him,” Mra. Scott. : Just then Deputy Marshal Kennedy ap- eared to remove the alleged counterfeiters for a hearing before United States Com- missioner Gray On behaif of pealed to the marshal to admit sonnor ‘The marshal explained that he would be happy to aid in the reunion, but that he could not spare time just then as hus pris- onere were due at the Federal Building. “They can have their interview in our of- fice,” suggested Deputy Kennedy.

Capt. Boyd Finds.a Woman in His Sta- ble and Causes Her Arrest. Kate Mink of nowhere was the unwelcome guest of Police Captain Boyd Sunday night. Her visit will cost her three months in the Workhouse. Capt. Boyd lives at 6108 South Broadway. His stable is in the rear of the property. Monday morning when the _ stableman opened the door he heard a noise in the loft, followed by groans. He found Kate Mink. The man ordered her out. Kate had not finished her nap and refused to go. She resisted an attempt at force with great vigor and the hired man was obliged to call the Captain. Capt. Boyd's orders had no more effect than those of his man. Kate would not move until she was ready. She roundly denounced the disturbers of her sleep and prepared for another nap. Capt. Boyd found a patrolman and or- dered the avoman’s arrest. When taken be- fore Judge Zimmerman she had no excuse other than she was sleepy. The court placed a $% value in that nap. “Wheezing” in children is soon cured: by the famous Dr. Bull’s Cough Syrup.

Thorwegen lived on the boat with his family. About 7 o’clock Mrs. Thorwegen woke up to find smoke coming up into her stateroom through the carpet. She quickly aroused her husband. Hastily donning his trousers he ran out to investigate and found the lower deck in flames. Returning, he told his wife of their danger, and putting on a cose wrapper, the lady took one of her children in her arms and the Captain took the other. On reaching the cabin deck the stairway was completely hidden from view by heavy clouds of smoke and Capt. Thorwegan, be- lieveing’ that that avenue of escape was cut off, told his wife that the only thing to do Wa4s to throw the children into the river and jump in after them. Just then a puff of ne | blew away the smoke, and running ‘orward. Mrs. Thorwegen saw that, al- though on fire in several places, the stair- Way was still safe. Calling to her husband to follow with the other child, the brave woman led the way, and,.with feet unpro- tected by shoes and burdened by the child a her arms, she safely reached the lower eck, and from there, through the blinding smoke, got to the gangplank and to shore closely followed by the Captain. Mate Stevens was missed. Capt. Thor- wegen found him endeavoring to save Mrs. Thorwegen’s trunk. He called to him to drop it and look to his own safety. Stevens then became fully aware of his danger and made his way to the shore. He had a nar- row escape, his whiskers being singed off as he descended the burning stairway, which fellin a few minutes later. The City of Providence, also owned by the Columbia Excursion Co.. and the City of Vicksburg, recently sold by the company to the Naval Reserves, were lying close by, and Capt. Thorwegen having seen his wife and children to a fisherman’s cabin close by, set about saving them. They were tied to the bank, and the only way he saw was to cut the ropes of the burnin boat and turn it adrift. But it was found that it was held nt f spring chains, and its destruction seeme inevitable when the Capt. Zeller, who had seen the fire, came to the rescue. The Vicksbure was towed out into the stream, and further loss was averted. If the Vicksburg had burned the City of Providence, which wag lyin along- side, could hardly have been saver The Grand Republic was the largest boat on the river. It was originally the “J. B. M. Kehlor,” built at Pittsburg for the Helena and New Orleans Transportation Co. The Columbia Excursion Co. bought her, rechristened her the “Heléna” and used her as a cotton carrier in the fall and winter, and as an excursion boat in sum- mer. Later she was remodeled for an ex- cursion boat exclusively and rechristened the “Grand -Republic,” after a former fine boat of that name which was commanded by Capt. Thorwegen when she burned in 1877 at the foot of Lesperance street with a loss of $100,000. .Capt. Thorwegen was also captain of the Charles P. Chorfteau when she burned several years ago. Capt. and Mrs. Thorwegen lost all their wearing apparel] and personal effects in the fire except the Captain’s watch. They are staying at the home of A. Golde, watchman of the City of Providence, 8409 Pennsylvania avenue. The Columbia Excursion Co. is a char- tered company, of which C. C. Maffitt is president and Capt. Alf Grissom secretary. Capt. Thorwegen is one of the stockholders. The fire is supposed to have originated in the kitchen. BOARD OF EQUALIZATION. Charles Nagel, C. H. Bailey, August Hoffman and Robert Rutledge Named.

Tt Is From a Friend, Who Describes the Warlike Preparations on the Florida Coast. A letter received by a St. Louis girl from a friend in Key West,-Fla., says many faml- lies are preparing to leave that city for places of greater safety. Many will come to St. Louls. ‘ “Everyone here believes there will be war,” she writes, “and most everyone is preparing for it. The harbor is full of boats.

He attracted almost as much attention as his father would have done. We are all so proud of the General, and prouder still that he is a Southerner.
