THE STORM'S HAVOC
IN PENNSYLVANIA
Great Dilute Is Reported from Almost
Every Sectioa. '
SERIOUS LOSS IN OLD LANCASTER
The Tobacco Crop Nearly Rained
and Other Destruction 1 Severe
Beyond Recent Parallel Two Men
Killed by the Collapse of a Roof.
Breaker Demolished at Sliamekin.
Other Lussrs.
Philadelphia. Sept. SO. Reports re
ceived frnin various points today Indi
cate that last night's storm was ex
ceedingly destructive throughout the
eastern, middle and western counties of
the state. Houses, barns, and bridges
were blown away, crops ruined, streams
uml rivers are out of their banks, wash
outs and landslides have blocked rail
roud tracks and In several places lives
were lost. The damage to property
will amount to probably two minion
dollars.
At Lancaster and throughout Lan
caster county the storm was especially
severe. The covered bridge over the
Susquehanna river at Columbia, used
by the Frederick division of the Penn
sylvania railroad was blown away. Sev
eral men are rejiorted to have been
killed when the bridge went, but this
rumor Is unconfirmed. The tobacco
crop In Lancaster Is nearly ruined and
the money damage of all kinds In the
county is estimated nt Sl.oou.ooo. Hy
the collnnse of the roof of the casting
house of the Temple furnace, at Tem
ple. Herks county, Edward Hisslmlller
and Samuel Trout were killed and Wil
liam Collar, Joseph Kuihenberger. Har
ry Becker. William Plmdler and Wil
liam Werta all more or less hurt. All
the men were employes of the furnace.
The round house of the Cornwall and
Lebanon railroad, at Lebanon, was
blown off and elcht locomotives were
damaged.
IN' OTHER SECTIONS.
The Jun.lnta Is out of Its banks at
Huntingdon and In lilair county and
the valley is Inundated and experienc
ing a Hood, scarcely less destructive
than the memorable one of 1880. Be
cause of washouts und landslides traf
fic on the middle division of the Penn
sylvania railroad Is suspended, but
etistern trains are going around by way
of Lock Haven, on the Northern Cen
tral. At Rhamokln the breaker of the Pat
terson Coal company, together with
fourteen houses, was blown down. Thir
ty mules In the stable of the colliery
were killed by the collapse of the bulld
Ipb. John Chalmers was fatally in
jured and the Infant of Mrs. Savlneskl
was killed and Mrs. Savlneskl had her
leg broken. The above Instances are
only a few of the destruction wrought.
There is no telegraphic cniTjuiunlea
tlon from this city further west In the
state than Mount Joy, twenty-seven
miles from Harrisbuig. and details of
the damage done In that section are
still lacking. The wires of the tele
graph companies suffered as they never
did before, and up to 9 o'clock tonight
communication with points south of
Baltimore was still cut off. The storm
was not particularly severe in Phila
delphia and only trifling damage was
done.
AT THE STATE CAPITAL.
Harrisburg, Pa., Sept. 30. A hurrl
enne toyed with Hanisburg In the
night and when the duy broke through
the fast disappearing musses of gray
storm cloud this momlnir, the city
looked upon a scene of demolition and
destruction that it has not witnessed
in the last quarter of a century. The
mark of the whirlwind that passed
over this city will not be effaced In a
month, or a year. Hoofs will be re
stored and houses repaired, but a
thousand maimed trees many of them
survivors of the time when the state
cnpitol was but a struggling hamlet,
und to which citizens were in the habit
of pointing with pride will remain to
show where the storm blazed Its puth.
It had been a rainy Tuesday with
gusty drives of rain that made walk
ing uncomfortable early in the evening.
hut this was but a foretaste of the
coming gale. By midnight the storm
hud begun. It hissed around corners
and whined through the telegraph
wires In a way utterly foreign to a
September equinoctial and terrifying to
the timid. It was a gale at muininiu:
II lashed Itself Into sections of whirl
wind thirty minutes later, and by 1
o'clock and for an hour after it showed
the teeth of a small cyclone. There
were scores of people in the city who
spent the night after twelve in their
cellars praying that the fateof St. Louis
niicht not be In store for HaiTlsburg.
There were thousands more who sat
shuddering until morning waiting for
the fury of the wind and rain to abate.
All were fearful, and, after the hurri
cane wearied itself out, the streets
were full of people anxious to learn
the havoc that they kmftv must lie in
Its wake,
BALL OP FIRE.
At 12.40 a ball of fire, to observers an
large as a September sun,, Hashed out
Into the blackness from the Bouthwest
and hung for a full minute In the angry
heavens. Those who saw it say that
it died away slowly, not with the Hush
ing brilliancy and sudden extinguishing
of a meteor, but changing from white
to red and then fading like a dying
coal. After this the worst was over
The hurricane veered frequently and
seemed possessed of as many whims
as a school girl. It would wrench
roofs from their fastenings, several
houses together, and then skip skyward
for two or three blocks before begin
ning Its work of ruin.
On Peffer street trees were uprooted
and blown down on one side of the
street, while the other remained un
touched. It was the same on many
streets with windows, one side of the
thoroughfare escaping, while the opdo
site houses would be glassless. Wires
were down over town, but gangs of
men were soon bUBy clearing the debris
away. The wires were not gotten into
shape entirely all day; but Third street
cars were running by 8 o'clock. There
was hardly an avenue or a street that
was not filled with tree limbs and
wreckage.
It will be several days before the
supervisors or the various districts
can have the dead limbs tif the trees
hauled away. In Capitol park the
spectacle Is a pitiful one. The grounds
will not regain their former appearance
for a long time. Big trees that have
weathered the winds of a half century
were bowled down like standing nine
pins. The hurricane seemed to brush
them out of Its path like twigs. Roots
with masses of earth cllncinir
as big as a room, lie upturned along
the walks- and throughout the park.
Many small sapplings recently plant
ed will have to be dug up. The storm
cut them in half near the base and
they will be useless. It was the same
along Front street and the river bank.
IN LANCASTER COUNTY.
. Lancaster, Pa., Sept. 30. Late reports
received from all sections of the county
show that the damage done will reach
In the aggregate nearly a million dol
lars. Hundreds of farmers have lost
their entire tobacco crop, which was
ready for the market. In addition to
frame buildings, numerous brick struc
tures were raaid to the ground. The
largest was th?.t of H. Bind Casset,
ev-chalrman of the Republican county
committee. His brick planing mill
collapsed, destroying valuable machin
ery and Involving- a loss of about 110,
000. Deputy Auditor General Friday
was a sufferer. The roof of hla barn
was blown a considerable distance and
the upper part of the building wan
wrecked. Senator Quay had just com
pleted the erection of a large tobacco
shed on his farm and the roof of It was
blown off and carried a great distance.
A large tobacco barik Belonging to J.
Hay Brown was blown from Its foun
dations to the public road and the en
tire crop of tobacco was ruined. These
are but a few-of the hundreds of slml-
IVf loSStS
Shamokln, Pa., Sept. 30. A terrific
wind storm visited this section of the
county at 1 o'clock this morning, last
ing for more than an hour. Buildings
were destroyed and property of every
description laid waste for miles. The
heaviest Ins- are the Patterson Coal
company, whose colliery Is situated at
Natalie, a mining vlllnge six miles east
of this city. The breaker and fourteen
houses were totally destroyed, seven by
lite and seven by the storm. The
stables connected with the colliery were
blown down and thirty mules killed
outright. The breaker was almost en
tirely demolished, causing a loss of
over J30.000 to the Patterson Coal com
pany alone. John Chalmers was fatal
ly Injured and Mrs. Suvineski had her
limb fractured trying to rescue her
baby, which was fatally injured and
Ims since died. In this city houses
were unroofed, church spires damaged
and widespread destruction resulted.
At Pcibler's station the United Breth
ren church was totally destroyed by
me storm.
AT PITTSBURG.
Pittsburg. Sept. 30. The heavy rains
and high winds which are general over
the western part of the state last night
and early this morning played havoc
with the running schedules of nearly
every railway entering Pittsburg. The
heaviest damage seems to have been
cast of the Allengheny mountains and
from the meagre reports received great
damage has been done. Through
trains on the railways are greatly de
layed. The storm practically paralyzed
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad sys
tem, east, west, north and south.
Wires are down and reports are far
from satisfactory. It is known, how
ever, that road bedsiave been washed
away, there are lamlNlkbs innumerable
and tracks are obstructed by fallen
trees. In the vicinity of Sand Patch,
where train No. 9, the New York and
Chicago express, due tn Pittsburg at
C.L.i o'clock this morning., is supposed
to be storm bound, the rain fell in tor
rents for several hours and mountain
i a vines were transferred into rivers.
The freight cars on sidings and dwell
ings were unroofed und overturned. It
Is not yet known whether any fatali
ties occurred. At Sand Patch several
washouts occurred near Akron, Ohio,
on the Pittsburg and Western railroad
and telegraph wires were prostrated.
Train No. 6, Chicago express, is hemmed
in by a landslide near Bakerstown. The
Cannon Ball express Is also delayed
Bomewhere on the Ohio division, and
the time of Us arrival here cannot be,
guessed.
IN LEBANON VALLEY.
Lebanon, Pa., Sept. 30. Later reports
show that the damage by the storm
last night was far greater than at first
supposed. In addition to the round
house of the Lebanon and Cornwall
Railroad company being demolished
thut of the Cornwall railroad met with
a similar fate. The losses sustained by
these two companies will run into the
thousands of dollars. The United
Brethren church nt Annvllle was
wrecked, the Sunnyside mills were un
roofed. A part of the roof of the Unit
ed Brethren church in West Iebanon
was carried away as well as those of
the dwellings of Joseph Strohman and
Freder ck Fertlg.
At the Iron City brewery the boiler
and engine houses were leveled to the
ground. The ton of the steeple of
Salem Lutheran church was broken off.
At Kbenezer the barn of Benjamin
Ulouch v,us unroofed ns well as several
new dwellings belonging to Daniel
Zlegler. The old brick furnace at North
Lebanon, used for storage purposes, is
u mass of ruins. Hundreds of trees of
all sorts were uprooted.
Wilson Chrlstman and his ftmlly, re
siding near Copp's rolling mill, had a
most thrilling escape. They had just
left the house when one of the walls
collapsed, Illllng. their sleeping apart
ments with a mass of brick and mortar.
The barn and house of D. 11. Long, on
the Jonestown road, were badly dam
aged. A portion of the steeple of the
Reformed church at Jonestown was
blown away and the steeple of the
Suedburg church was twisted out of
shape and must be tak"i) down. The
round house nt Tremont was wrecked
and several engines damaged. As far
ns can be learned no one wns seriously
Injured, but the oldest people say they
never experienced anything like It. It
was a night of terror and many of the
residents sought shelter In their cellars
until the storm subsided.
DOWN WITH THEIR SHIP.
Four of the Crew of a Foundered
Unrge Arc Drowned.
Milwaukee, Wis., Sept. 30. The barge
Sumatra foundered off the government
pier this morning and four of the crew
were drowned. The dead are all from
West Bay City, Michigan. They are:
Arthur Burnstead, Chnrles Hemmer,
Patrick Peterson and Peter Anderson.
Captain Charles John, Mate John Bur
beck and Ira Purser, the cook, were
rescued by the tug Sumpson.
The Sumatra was bound down from
Chicago with a load of railroad Iron
and intended to Rtop here to pick up
the Puttie Wells.
LOST HER EtE FOR A CURL.
A Little (iirl Seriously Injured by a
Hot Iron.
Port Jervis, N. Y., Sept. SO. Pearl,
the 5-year-old daughter of Jesse Hug
gins, of Livingston Manor, Sullivan
county, destroyed the sight of her left
eye on Tuesday while trying to cut I
her hair.
She hented the iron in !he ll"j she

it terribly, and a physician said the
sight was destroyed,

MAD PREACHER
SPREADS TERROR
Emphasizes His Commaads to Aadltors
by Firing a Revolver.
HE SHOOTS AT SEVERAL PEOPLE
Citizens of Abincton, Mass., Are Ter
rorized by a Mnd Preacher Who
Roams the Woods, Appears at I'n
expected Place and Either Com
pelt People to Listen to Religions
Exhortation or Drive Them Away
at the Point of a Pistol.
Abington. Mass.. Sept. 30. Ablngton
has a mad preacher who haunts the
woods, and when he runs across a man
cither compels him, at the point of a
revolver, to stand and listen to a strong
exhortation on the subject of religion
or else drives him away with curses,
hastening his Hying foot-steps with
bullets that are (lred to kill. This
strange creature roums the woods and
appears unexiiectedly In various por
tions of the town. Nobody Is safe from
his onslaughts. There Is no uuestlon
as to his Insanity, but the authorities
are at a loss to know how to protect
the lives of the townsfolk.
The man's Identity Is not yet known.
His presence was first known last week
on Monday, when Mrs. Emma Sampson
and Mr. Warren Webster overheard
loud exhortation In the woods behind
their houses. They Investigated nrd
came upon a man gesticulating wildly
and apparently addressing his remarks
to a ttce. He turned as they approached
and shouted: "Vandals, you are dis
turbing my meeting!" He then
launched Into the mot horrible style
of profnnlty extant. Suddenly he
raised his arm and two pistol shots
rang out. the bullets whizzing near the
heads of his congregation.
COMPELLED TO LISTEN.
Again on Thursday the preaching
was heard by Mr. and Mrs. U. L. Joy.
Mrs. John Reed, Mrs. Sampson and
Warren Webster. They did not ap
proach close enough to be seen by the
mnn. as they recalled the previous ex
perience. . ,
While Samuel Shepard was at work
on his farm Friday afternoon, he saw
the man preaching In the woods ad
joining his farm. The maniac had a
revolver In his hand and, by threat
ening gestures, compelled Mr. Shepard
to remain until the sermon was fin
ished. Then he pronounced bene
diction, and Immediately luunched Into
a torrent of profanity.
Saturday afternoon Gideon L. Joy
came across the man. He was preuch
Ing In hla usual style, but when he
found that he had an auditor he at
once launched Into his usual profane
tirade, and running toward the Joy
house, llred a revolver twice. One of
the windows In the lower part of the
house was broken.
cm Sunday night the crazy Individ
ual made an unsuccessful attempt
upon the life of Lawrence Belcher, of
West .Ablngton, at whom he tired
twice. Just ahead of Mr. Belcher,
Charles Lynde was standing against a
tree. One of the bullets entered the
tree but three Inches from his heud,
and the other struck a limb Just above
him.
FAILED TO CAPTURE HIM.
Today a searching party, led by
Constable Mace, tried to capture the
dangerous lunatic. They heard him
preaching and cursing In the woods
near the Shepard inrm, but the man
evidently took fright at the approuch
of so many men and escaped.
No one answering his description Is
missing, and It Is thought that he may
have escaped from some asylum. As
he Is armed with a revolver, which
he does not hesitate to use on every
occasion when cornered or Interrupt
ed, It Is thought that there may be
some trouble In effecting his capture.
WINFREY WON A BRIDE.
Uut He Got lu Jail for a Foul
Murder.
Memphis, Tenn., Sept. 30. Late last
night J. H. Winfrey, Jr., and Miss Snl

gaged to marry October 6. nnd lust nltfht
Burton culled npnu Ills .ili.mc 'd blliie.
Later Wlnfrey.who wan an old suitor,

left. Very soon after he had gone the
girl rushed Into her mother' room with
a hasty farewell, explaining that she
und Winfrey were going to run off and
marry.
The mother attempted to restrain her,
but in vain, and as the girl II", ?h!
called to Peter Crawford, thi girl's
uncle. Crawford was in the yard, and
Intercepted the couple at the ga:e.
A moment Inter Winfrey llred two
shots from a pistol through Crawford's
heart, lie and the girl Jumped Into a
waiting. buggy and dashed away in the
darkness. The sheriff and a pons took
the trnil at once, but fulled to licate
them until after the marrl.13? ceiv.mony
had been performed.

CURE FOR NOSE BLEED.
Delicate Surgical Upcrntion Affords
a Patient Relief.
New York, Sept. 30. Captain Nickels,
a patient at the Hudson street hospital,
is suffering from a severe attack of
nose bleed, caused by rupture of the
nasal artery at the base of the nose.

next resource was Ballocque's cantila,
a delicate Instrument with an eye like
a needle and bent at one end. The
eye was threaded with guaze saturated
with perchlorlde of Iron, and passed
through the posterior nares and over
the ruptured artery.
The treatment was effective, and
within a short time the patient was
resting easily..
