The cases to which I referred were both tried and decided since the one referred to by Mr. Ansart, and are the latest deliverances of the courts.

The courts could not have held the defendants guilty under the law, for selling hard cider, as a beverage, if the Act of 1858 was still unrepealed. The decisions are that it is an offense to do so. Even if the Act of 1858 was not repealed no one could sell cider as a beverage after it was hard without a license.

Tae population ot these towns and cities footed up about 50,000 souls.

The flood was caused by the breaking of the dam at Conemaugh reservoir and lake, fourteen miles above Johnstown. The water from this break rushed down the valley at a depth of forty feet, sweeping every-thing before it. The telegraph wires being down, and railroad communication being shut off, the news of Saturday was very unsatisfactory, as the actual result ould only be guessed at. The news received at different times is as follows: Pittsburg, May 31. The flood at Johnstown has resulted in an awful catastrophe.

It is said that the reservoir above the town broke about five O'clock this evening and the immense volume of water rushed down to the city, carrying with it death and destruction. Houses with their occupants were swept away, and scores, probably hundreds, of people were drowned. There is no communication with Johnstown, but a telegraph opera'or in the Pennsylvania Railroad tower at Sang Hollow, twelve miles this side of Johnstown, says at least seventy-five dead over there. vator to go to our rooms, I asked Mike he wasn't, ashamed of that bluff.

It is now believed that the victims of the flood that swept the Conemaugh valley Friday will be numbered by thousands rather than by hundreds. Supervisor Hayes, of the Pennsylvania Railroad, says that from one to two thousand of these victims were burned to death in the fire that consumed the wrecked houses as they were piled up forty feet high against the Pennsylvania Railroad viaduct.
