ISFXCUX. TXUGSAX TO TSX DUPATCH.1
Wilkesbabke, August 19. The storm
that swept over this region of Pennsylvania
to-night brought ruin and death. Its dura
tion was brief, bat its fury was awfuL To
night scores of homes that were cheer
ful, bright and happy before dusk are
turned into houses of mourning. Not
alone did this city suffer. Appalling
reports are coming in from neighboring
towns and Tillages, and the death list
Crows larger every honr. How many victims
the Storm King claimed cannot now be es
timated, bnt it is probable that at least 30
persons perished. The destruction of prop
erty was also terrible.
Terrible Fnry of the Storm.
The storm came np about 6 o'clock. A
dense clond of inky blackness came swiftly
np the river, pushed by a terrific wind. The
darkness of night fell suddenly upon the
city, and terror seized the hearts of brave
men and women. Trees crashed to the earth,
houses were unroofed and the air was filled
with the firing debris. The Triad was fol
lowed "1y a heavy rain, which thoroughly
drenched' the property which the hurricane
had uncovered.
Large districts, in several sections of the
city, are absolutely in ruin, and the women
and children are in the streets crying and
wringing their hands in absolute dismay.
The damage will reach hundreds of thou
sands of dollars.
The Awful Devastation.
Passenger trains and locomotives at the
depot were blown over, and every wire in the
city electric light, telephone and tele
graph is down. The devastation is to be
compared with nothing in the memory of the
oldest inhabitant. Everybody is rejoicing
that no fires have as yet followed, for the
streets are impassable with trees and fallen
buildings and the engines conld not be
drawn through them.
The total death loss, so far as ascertained,
is 12. Four men are known to be killed in
the Hazard wire rope works. A house on
Scott street, occnpied by miners, fell in and
three of the inmates were killed. The huge
stack of the Kyle planing mill fell on a man
and two horses and all were killed.
Killed by Falling; Walla.
A little colored girl was killed by a Jail
ing building on Sonth Main street. Two
men suffered death by the falling of a por
tion of Stegmaier's brewery, and a third
incurred the same fate through the almost
complete demolition of B. X. Brown's hand
some bnck business block on East Market
street. There are undoubtedly 15 or 16
others killed. Beports are coming in con
stantly to that effect.
Many poor people have suffered heavy
losses, and it will be months before all the
damage can be repaired. One hundred tin
roofers have been telegraphed for and build
ing mechanics of all kinds can find employ
ment here for weeks to come, as it is already
known that fully 200 buildings have been
blown down or otherwised damaged. Many
of the structures were of large size and great
value.
Some of the Froperlv Loiicl
Approximate losses only ban be given as
follows: Hazard "Wire Hope Works, 25,
000; S. L. Brown, $20,000; St. Mary's Cath

facturing Company, $3,000. In addition to
these hundreds of citizens have suffered
losses running from $500 to $5,000.
The Murray shaft fan house was blown
down and the fan stopped. There are 27
men in the mine, but it is hoped they can
be got out safely.

that region at precisely the same moment
that Wilkesbarre was struck. Farmer
Cole's house was demolished and
Mr. Cole was killed. His
family were imprisoned in the
wrecks but were rescued by a crew of train
men who had witnessed the disaster. They
are all badly hurt Hew Milford Is 60 miles
north of Wilkesbarre. Another dispatch
says that just before the cyclone reached
New 'Milford it struck Harveyville, killing
two women.
A special from Scranton says that train
men of incoming trains report that the vil
lage of Summerville, 30 miles west of Scran
ton, was struck by the cyclone this afternoon
about 530 and totally annihilated. Engi
neer William Fischerin.giving an account of
his train experience while passing through
the cyclone, said the engine was blown
from the track and all the car windows
were crushed in by the terrible force of the
wind. Two of the train hands were seri
ously injured. Any definite account of the
storm or the damage done by it is difficult
to obtain, as all the wires to the west of the
city are down.
Severe at Plymouth.
A telegram from Plymouth says: Har
veysville, a farming village ten miles from
here, was wrecked this afternoon bv a tor
nado. The M. E. church and the adjoining
parsonage were blown down. Harvey's large
store was totally destroyed. Nearly all

farmer, was killed and several others were in
jured. NO SERIOUS TROUBLE REPORTED.

tSTOCIAX. TXX.XQHAJC TO Tint SISPATCH.1
Alb&ht, August 19. The Pinkertons
were in part removed from the cars and
railroad crossings, and everything was
quiet about the yards. Several freight
trains were sent out, but a report comes from
Schenectady that all trains which have been
sent ont from West Albany in the last three
days have been side tracked there. The ex
ception of this mode of operations is in re
gard to the through freight trains and the
refrigerator cars.
William Gillespie, a tallyman at the
transfer office, West Albany, was brutally
assaulted late last night, by three strikers,
within two doors ot his home. Gillespie
refused to go out with the Knights.
A clerk in the Train Dispatcher's office was
also assaulted to-day, but not seriously in
jured. Chief Willard and the local
police are guarding the railroad prop
erty to-night, but the Pinkertons
are not beyond call. The Chief contem
plates swearing a number of special officers,
with a view of asking for the withdrawal of
all the Pinkerton men from the city. Rain
prevented a public meeting of the Knights
on the Market square to-night.
A telegram from New York says: Noth
ing further has been heard from Mr. Pow
derly or the leaders of the Knights. New
York Central officials say the freight block
ade has been pretty well raised.
A MAMMOTH STRIKE IMPENDING
As a Resale of 'Ahe Bricknukers Battle
Against a Boycott.
rsPECtu, tsxxorax to th disfatchJ
New Toek, Angust 19. All men con
nected with the building trades are feeling
very glum over the prospects of a long and
bitter brick war which may throw nearly
100,000 men ont of employment.
The bad feeling was brought to
the boiling point by the action
of the brick mannfactnrers at their regular
meeting at the Astor House on Monday.
They then decided to withhold shipments
of brick to all points included in
the boycott instituted five weeks ago
by the Board of Walking Delegates and
Bnilding Trades. The tie-up on the part of
the manufacturers will go into effect next
Friday.
"I think all the dealers will pull
through," said Secretary Van Valen, of the
Building Materials' Exchange, "though
they will be putJp untold inconvenience.
This is a 0i case. Should the
Knights of Labor succeed in compelling the
Verplanck Point manufacturers to hire
only members of their organization, then
they might turn their attention to Haver
straw and other brick-making centers.
Therefore the manufacturers who are not in
the combination may preter to fight the boy
cotters now rather than do it later on."
The situation will be discussed by the
Board of Walking Delegates ji their regular
meeting to-morrow.
A RECOUNT ORDERED.'

Washington, August 19. The first
evidence of anything like iraud or incom
petency in the taking of the census of Penn
sylvania has just been discovered. It is in
the one hundred and tenth enumeration dis
trict of the fifth supervisors' district, being
about one-half of the town of Mauch Chunk,
Carbon county. The returns from this dis
trict were found to be in such bad shape
that thevwere sent to the geographer's
division for a special examination. Then
it was discovered, according to the report of
the chier, Mr. Henry Gannett, that there
were among the schedules sent in about 600
duplications, the same persons being
counted over twice.
Mr. Gannett recommended that .there
should be a recount of the district and that
the pay of the first enumerator should
be suspended. Upon this report a
recount was ordered to-day.

State Property Suddenly Acquires Value
With tbe Discovery of Oil and Gas The
Standard Baring TJp Leases Many Salts
to be Instituted.
rsrxcux. nuaux to thx dispatch. 1
Columbus, August 19. The State Canal
Commission has instructed Attorney Gen
eral Watson to institute suit at once against
James & Pickton, manufacturers of furni
ture specialties at Akron, to eject them from
one and one-quarter acres of land occupied
by their factory. This is but first of 56 suits
which will be instituted by the State against
manufacturing firms and business men in
Akron, Troy, Massillon, Sidney and Piqua
to recover lands which rightfully belong to
the State.
Since the discovery of oil and gas in Mer
cer county there has been a general scramble
to secure possession of property adjacent to
the canal and belonging to the State. This
property is among the most desirable gas
Jiroperty in the Mercer county fields, several
arge wells having already been success
fully driven. The State owns thousands of
acres of this property, and in recent years it
has been in possession of citizens'. Since the
oil and gas discoveries each acre had a dozen
or more claimants. Within the past three
weeks the State Canal Commission has re
covered possession of 276 acres ot this gas
land, and is rapidly making additional
ones.
The Standard Oil Company is leasing
large areas of these recovered lands from
the State. Senator Will Shaw, of Auglaize
county, a representative of the Standard
Company, has bean here for the past week
carrying out the deal, and has succeeded, in
securing large numbers of leases. Since the
discovery of the deposits hundreds of little
shanties have been erected upon it. Disap
pointed claimants allege that the Standard
Company is the instigator of this ejection,
and that they will refuse to recognize the
State's right to the laud. They are indig
nant over the matter and say they will re
fuse to acknowledge any decision of any
court, and will only surrender their lauds
by forcible ejectment.
The State Canal Commission state that
they will endeavor by all peaceful means to
restore to the State its rightful property, but
if need be will see that troops enforce the
decision of the court

Cardinal Newman began with the singing
of the pontifcal high mass at the oratory
at Edgbaston, and ended with the interment
of the remains this afternoon in the private
burial ground attached to the oratory .re
treat at Rednall, Worcestershire. The
crowd which gathered to see the funeral
procession was one of the largest ever
seen. It was orderly in the extreme,
and allowed nothing to mar the
solemnity of the scene. Many of the people
were visibly aflected, and all joined in ex
pressions of regret for thedeath of the Cardi
nal and of regard for bis memory. Tbe
favored few who were admitted to the
church were the principal dignitaries of the
Roman Catholic Church in England, who
had gathered together to join in the last
Bolemn functions connected with the career
of the greatest of them all. The chnrch was
crowded to its utmost capacity, every seat
being" filled. The choir and chancel were
thronged with the clergy and in the center
was the choir.
YELYET-COVEBED COFFIN.
Besting on the catafalque was the coffin
covered with its pall of purple velvet, on
which was a white shield bearing the arms
of the deceased cardinal and his motto, "Cor
ad cor loquitur," displayed under it, while
lying at the foot of the comn was the putple
hat, one of the symbols of the cardinal's
rank in the church. The mass was
Gregorian, and no hymns were sung. The
only special feature of the service
was that there were five absolutions of
the body, instead of one, as is usual.
Precisely at 11 o'clock a procession of
priests, monks and Fathers of the Oratory,
with 17 Bishops in full vestments, entered
the building and slowly moved along tbe
center aisle, dividing on each side of the
coffin and taking up their position in the
choir and in the chancel. The Rcv.Edward
Ilsley, the "Roman Catholic Bishop of Bir
mingham, occupied thelaia.Cardjnal'
Throne. "NeverhasEdgbaslon Oratory held.
such a distinguished gathering. Bishops,

the greatest Englishman of his time.

Dovee Davis Dalton, the American

noon at his hotel by a Dispatch reporter.
He said: "Alter the extraordinary exertion
I underwent yesterday, I am feeling very
weak. My eyes hurt intensely, and are so
painful in the glare of the white light that
I am obliged to wear blue spectacles, and I
can scarcely open the lids. I do not recol
lect what they did with me as soon as they
got me here, for I had not then recovered
consciousness. Shortly after I came to I
was put into a hot bath, where I remained
for 20 minutes and was then taken ont and
wrapped in blankets. Then hot water
bottles were put to my feet and mustard
plasters freely applied io various parts of
my body. I was attended by nearly a dozen
doctors, who all examined me to determine
what the exertion fend long exposure had
caused. They found my general condition
remarkably good, but they say my left lung
is very weak from a hemorrhage. In cross
ing the channel l)found that the tempera
ture of the water changed about six times,
and this made my passage very much more
disagreeeable than it had anticipated.

Hartjof Moring, Hart& Co., of Muncie.
Ind., presided, and William Loeffler, of
Pittsburg, acted as secretary.
Mr. Loeffler says that the reports of stocks
on hand showed that the amount of last
year's product remaining unsold, while
large, is about the same as last year, and the
reports of building operations and probable
demand for the coming year, showed that
about 50 per cent more building has been
projected, or is under way, than at this time
last year, and that this is true of all sections
of the country.
There was considerable difference of opin
ion among those present as to the proper
time to begin work for the fall. Quite a
number of the firms wanted September 1.
Tbe United Glass Company wanted October
1, because they believed that to open at an
earlier date would break the market and
make it impossible to maintain the present
scale of prices. Finally a compromise was
made on September 15 as the day on which
blowing shall begin. It was then decided
by resolution that the present scale of prices
should be continued without any deviation.
No forfeits were put np and there is nothing
to prevent any manufacturer from selling
below the card rate if he wants to.
Incidentally, daring the progress of the
meeting the "tariff was mentioned. One
gentleman stated that he bad been assured
by certain members of the House that the
Senate amendment of the MoKinley bill, by
which tbe duty on window glass was reduced
about one-eighth cent per poaud, woald not
be concurred in by the House, and that the
tariff would remain as it is.

A Naval Cruiser to be Built for tbe Destruc

rsrECIAI. TZXIOKAM TO TUB DISPATCH.!
New Yobk, August 19. Under author
ity conferred upon the Navy Department
by the act of Congress making appropria
tions for the naval service ap
proved on June 30, 1890,
plans for a protected cruiser
of about 7,300 tons displacement are being
prepared in tbe bureau of construction and
repair and steam engineering. Proposals
have been invited under date of July 1,
1800.
In appearance the vessel will resemble an
ordinary merchantman, the sides being
nearly clear of projections or sponsons which
ordinarily appear on vessels of war. The
function of the vessel is to destroy the com
merce of an enemy; therefore her general
appearance is such as to enable her to get
within range before her character is dis
covered. FEARFUL FREIGHT CRASH.

declining the nomination:
August 19, 1690.
Mr. O. D. Beid. Chairman Commercial and Indus

JItDeab Srn On returning to this city
from my summer's vacation, 1 find yonr favor
of the 9th instant, informing me of my nomina
tion for Congress by the Industrial Convention,
held at Yonngsville, August 7. While highly
appreciating the spirit that prompted your
honorable body to honor me, I am sorry indeed
that a paramount duty to those wbo have
placed confidence In me, duty to the
principles of the Republican party,
dnty to the general good of the
Commonwealth and its people, compel ma
to decline. As a lifelong Republican an da
warm adherent to the principles of the Repub
lican partv, I have made grave charges against
tbe Republican nominee for Governor, and
after months of silence he now denies them, as
a whole, unequivocally. There are thousands
of citizens all over the State, of all political
shades, who believe I made those charges
knowingly and honestly. I would be wanting
In manhood II I shonld now refuse to sustain
tbem and should surely deserve their bitter
condemnation. I should be lacking in my duty
if I should, by any act of mine, jeopardize tbe
election of Mr. Pattison. By placing myself in
a position to be charged with being disgruntled
by political disappointment or to be seeking
seli-elevattoo, I would contribute to this very
danger. My acceptance of a nomination for
Congress at this time from any source, however
lauaable. would Impair the force of my effort to
defeat Delamater, wbo. In my opinion. Is a cor
rupt man. I hope for the election of Mr.
Pattison. not alone because I am fully con
vinced that tbe Republican party, oncepurged
of corrupt leadership, will be strengthened and
elevated, but as well because, dnrjng his ad
ministration, no charge of corruption conld be
brought against him. He was strongly arrayed
against every attempt of the corporations
to usurp the rights ot the people, and wblle I
was in tbe Senate during that administration
of four years his petsonal honesty and official
integrity were never assailable.
For the reason herein cited I am compelled
to decline the honor tendered me. Tbe one
aim of my life in politics has been and now is
to fortify the people in their supremacy against
unwarranted encroachment upon tbelr rights
by corporate power, and to assure to the in
dividual absolute equality before the law In his
relations with them. For the kind confidence
yonr honorable body showed Itself ready to re

iug the members down to businerson hanV has as vet been assigned, was the
ii . .. auu.m, .u mjjvuw wv uijbu u?-
mands, spoke briefly amid frequent ap
plause. He said, in effect, that while he
had desired the nomination of Wallace, the
logic of events had demanded the nomina
tion ot Robert E. Pattison, whom he highly
eulogized.
Considerable confusion arose over the
presentation of the name of W. A. Weiser,
a barber of Beaver Falls, as candidate for
Assembly. Attorney L. W. Beed charac
terized Weiser's candidacy as a nuge joke,
which assertion "riled" the latter, who
asserted that an effort was being made
to choke him off. Beed thereupon be
came excited and denounced him at
length, charging him with being a
Democrat at Democratic conventions and a
Bepublican at Republican conventions.
"It's a hnge joke," said he. "Shall we en
danger tbe success of the ticket with such a
thing as that?" A poll of the delegates re
sulted: Carothers, 114: Braden, 112, Weiser,
18. '
A roar of laughter and applause greeted
Weiser when he presented his competitors
with bis 18 votes and moved that the nomi
nation be made "by acclamation."
The fight of the day was made on the office
of County1 Commissioner. The first poll of
delegates resulted in the nomination of
Thomas L. Darragh. Five additional bal
lots were taken before a sufficiently large
vote was secured by any of the other candi
dates. On the sixth ballot Mengel received
135 votes, 12 more than were necessary to
elect During the polls great confusion
reigned and personal remarks were freely
bandied abont
A motion made by W. A. Mellon, Esq.,
that the Chair appoint a committee to form
ulate rules for the government of the Coun
ty Committee, particularly in the matter oi
the time of choosing delegates to the State
Convention, led to a rather acrimonious de
bate. The presentcustom is to choose tbem
in January, before candidates for State of
fices are announced, the delegates thus go
ing uninstructed. It is charged by the Pat
tison men that this led to the selection by
the Buchanan or Wallace faction ot Wal
lace, delegates last January who did not rep
resent the Democracy of this county. J. II.
Buchanan opposed the motion, asserting
"that a set of rules had been prepared 15
years ago which were still in existence.
Mellon retorted that they must "exist in
somebody's vest pocket as no one had ever
seen tnem. The motion was carried, and
the Chair was, at his own suggestion, given
time to select the committee, which virtual
ly killed the motion.
The County Committee met immediately
after the close of the convention and elected
Robert Ritchie, of Woodlawn, Chairman
for the ensuing year. Frank Wilson, of
Rochester, and A. L. Urban, of Beaver
Falls, were elected Secretaries.

rSPZCIAL TBLEOnAJI TO TBX P1STATCB.I
Huntingdon, Pa., Augustl 9. The Re
publican County Convention here to-day
failed to complete a ticket up to midnight
This was owing to the time consumed over
tbe contests in the nominations of a Con
gressman and Associate Judge. The regular
and ipdependent party factions had
their war paint on from the start, and but
little attention was paid to personal feelings.
The Congressman Atkinson contingent,
composed of Independents, captured all im
portant nominations-made to-day, against
the;regular taction, led by Captain Johnston,
ot this place. Underlying this Congres
sional fight was the prospective po3toffice
appointment here. The valiant attempt of
the temperance advocates to nominate Asso
ciate Judge? McCarthy also resulted in a
most bitter fight, terminating finally in the
defeat of the prohibition Judge.
The following incomplete ticket was nomi
nated: Congress, L. E. Atkinson, Mifflin
town; Legislature, P. M. Lytle, Shade Gap;
Associate Judge, Simon Wright, Union
township; Prothonotary, John Brewster;
Register and Recorder, Milton Isenburg,

Habbisbcbo, Angust 19. The Execu

met to-night and talked over the
business of the convention. A pro
gramme was adopted looking to the
prompt dispatch of the worK to be done. S.
C. Freed, of Montgomery, one of the most
liberal and energetic workers of the party,
was deci0ed on for Temporary Chairman of
the convention. Among tbe candidates for
Governor, John B. Garrett, of Bryn Mawr,
and Joshua L. Bailey, of Pniladelphia,
were favorably mentioned.
A strong sentiment prevails in favor of
confining the platform to the prohibition
issue, it being maintained by some dele
gates that traveling outside of .this question
for platform planks has & tendency to
weaken the party. John B. Garrett has
written a letter to Mr. Freed, in which he
advocates an adherence to this idea. His
views are expected to have weight with the
Committee on Resolutions, to which his
letter will be submitted.

Cleveland, August 19. There was a
desperate battle yesterday at Continental

village authorities. The village laid a. sewer
under the tracks and a large force of rail
road employes tore it np. In response to a
telegram for assistance, Sheriff Williamson
went to tbe scene of trouble with a posse of
citizens and one company of militia.
Id the fight that "followed there were 200
men on each Bide. Guns, revolvers,
clubs and stones were freely used.
About 40 persons were hurt, but
none fatally. The rioters were finally
repulsed and the sewer captured. All i
reported quiet to-night,-though the rioters
have made threatening demonstrations, and
more trouble Is feared.

1 . the Old Colony Bailroad. and the
-1. .1-..-1.1 r t r
i r, scores more, near Boston yester
day ?
Boston, August 19. One of the most
disastrous railroad accidents that ever oc
curred in the vicinity of Boston, and one
that rivals the famous Wolla&ton disaster of
October 5, 1878, occurred shortly after 1
o'clock this afternoon on the same road, the
Old Colony, and very near the same locality.
In the Wollaston disaster 15 Were killed
andl50 injured. To-Jay 15 persons were
killed, 12 instantly; 23 were seriously in
jured, 3 fatally, and several more sustained
slight injuries.
The train wrecked to-day was the Wood's
Holl express, which left Wood's Holl at
10:50 a.m. and was due in Boston at 1:10 p.
zi. It consisted of locomotive, baggage car,
smoker, the Pullman car and passenger
coaches heavily loaded.
LEFT THE1EACK.
Just beyond President's Bridge, abont an
eighth of a mile toward Boston, the engine
left the track from a cause at present un
determined and plunged into an embank
ment 12 feet high and was buried upon one
side. The tender, baggage car, smoker and
Pullman passed 'by the engine and wero
stretched along for a distance of 100 feet be
side the track.
The foremost passenger coach, No. 235,
left the rails, and its foremost truck swerved
to tbe left and plunged diagonally through
the car floor. The earthen fell upon its left
side upon the engine. Tbe lower forward
portion was torn to pieces, and of thejas
sengers in the car; some CO in number, many
were thrown into the rear corner, from
which 11 dead bodies were afterwards taken.
The escaping steam and smoke from the
engine instantly filled the car, so that those
within could see nothing either within or
without
A TERRIBLE 'WEECK. f
The forward cars were forced over upon
the outward-bound track, completely block
ing traffic, and np to 8:45 P. ai. no train
had passed the wreck.
Only three persons on the train ahead of
car 236 were injured. These were the fire
man, who was instantly killed and buried
under the engine; the engineer, who
jumped and was only slightly hurt,
and the Pullman car conductor, B.
E. Benson, who had tbe side of his
face cut and his right ear nearly cut off
by being thrown ont of a widow of bis car.
The three rear passenger coaches did not
leave the track, and the occupants received
no worse injury than a slight shaking up.
Car 236 was the principal scene of death
and agony, and the experiences of the un
lucky occupants were probably never ex
ceeded in horror and suffering in any rail
road wreck of recent years.
LIST OF THE DEAD.

the wreck:
