It Will be Launched next Monday by the Brumm-Whtteuouso Faction-Friends or Coyle In This Connty Will Testify In Ills Behalf. Special IlnnALD CorrcsiKmdcncc. Pottsvillo, Juno H. At this writing our Democratic friends aro assembled in state convention at Harrisburg, and prominent among tho patriots aro dozens of repre sentatives from Schuylkill county, tho latter being attracted tlioro because of tho candi dacy of Judge O. P. Bcchtel. This is tho first time in many years that tho Democrat have bad a chance to nomiuato with a cer tainty of electing a candidate for the Supremo Court, and as a result the greatest excite ment prevails, and the hotels aro crowded. THE LOCAL DEMOCRATS. Tho Democratic leaders lu this county aro greatly interested lu tho outcome of their stato convention, not so much as to tho men who will bo selected as their standard-bearers as they aro In the platform. Especially is this trne In reference to tlio Ilryauitcs. Tho latter's followers, tho 'leaders" of whom are principally renegade Republicans, tormer Qreenbackcrs and Democrats who have on soveral occasions opposed tho regular party nominees, openly assert intentions to bolt tho party should tho Democratic convention ignore Bryan and tho financial nuestion in the platform. And that is what Is likely to nappen. 'lucre Is no doubt as to the position of tlio county organization tho questions of national Importance will bo laid away until VKO, and matters of Intorest to tbo tax payers of tbo stato and county alono will lorm tho loading issues iu this county, so far as tho Democracy is concerned. Ono of the Democratic candidates ro- marked, in discussing tbo question, that ho tor one did not propose to allow a fow dis credited Republicans, who now strut abont the county labeled "Democrat." to dictate to life-long Democrats what tho policies of that party shall or shall not be. Tho gentleman in question pertinently remarked that theso blind followers of the Sliver god should first piove their loyality to tho party before dictating Its policies. Tho party's candidates "pay tbo fiddler" in this case and should rcceivo firrt consideration. Tho othors havo nothing at stako, intimates my friend. In this I differ materially. Theso Bryanitos, especially those who deserted tho Greenback and Re publican parties bocauso thoy wero not, in their estimation, sufficiently "fed," havo their "principles" at stake. Surely this is of far creator importance than tho low and de grading principle1 of office-seeking 1 Those whito metal patriots aro fighting the people's cause. They caro moro for tho amelioration of tho working clashes than they do for tho presidency. Scan tho list of theso Republican and Greenback de sorters now leadors of tho Democracy and nono of them cither sought or held oOlce; no, indeed 1 And isn't it presumptuous on the part of tho ofllco-seekcrs, no matter if they aro life-long party workers, to dlctato either tho party's followers or Its policies? To be sure I THE NEW DAILY. Tho much heralded and long looked for now Republican dally paper hero will make its first bow to the readers of this county on Monday afternoon next. That's tho Informa tion I received from tbo promotors, after a visit to their plant, now in course of erection. Their office is opposite tho new federal building, over which tho Hon. Qustavus Schrink presides and afllxos "M. P." to his official autograph. This is well, for more reasons than ono. The leading spirits in this now journalistic ven ture aro Hon. Charles N. Brumm, W. "Jack" Whltehouse, and last, but by no means least, the Hon. Qustavus Schrink. Theso gontle men aro leaders of one faction of tbo Re publican party, and each is desirous of being recognized as tho boss of that faction. There are those who predict that tho two first named would not agree upon tho policy of their newspaper for a greater length of time than ono month. Should this prediction prove true, the Hon. Qustavus will have a two-fold duty. In imagination, one can picture tho ox-legislator setting in his sanctum in tho post office building soothing in turn the ruffled spirits of "Charlioand Jack," both of whom claim Qustavus as their own. The walls of Undo Sam's building will resound with words of conciliation iu the Dutch dialect, for the sake of the "Old Man" and "Chack," and then tho present postmaster by tho graco of Brumm, and ex-legislator by the will of tho people, will pour oil from the Nichter hostelry on tho troubled sea, and tho threo will again, for tbo hundredth time, swear allegiance to the political triumvir. All this is not mere fiction, bo cause it Is likely to occur at any time. Spoaking of the new dally, which will bear the appropriate tltlo, "Tho Advocate," I am informed that tho company was formed with a capital of $12,000. Of this amount Robert Wilson, of Mt. Carmel, puts up fl.OOO; "Deacon" Bowon, whose Job printing plant forms tho nucleus for the mechanical department, Is accredited with f-1,000; W. J. Whltehouse promises to bo good for f 2,000, and C. N. Brumm and S. O. Schrink each have $1,000 opposite thejr names. Only f 1,200 of tlio tojal amount has been pa(d in and lrj.jttio hands of tho treas urer, Walter Stevenson. The proprietors announce that tho paper will be an out-and-out stalwart Republican publication, and to substantiate that state ment ono of them vouchsafed the informa tion that tho paper will support Editor ?erby should ho bo tho nomiuee. Mr. Wilson will bo editor-in-chief, while liowen will look aftr tbo mechanical department and inci dentally tho business ond. City Editor Qenung, now of tho Miners' Journal, will till a similar position on tho new daily, wnicu my mono, iirumrn styles "my paper." Tho reportorlal staff has not been aunounccd, They havo Installed a wob perfecting Campbell press and two tyne setting machines In the office The press is caiable of printing 15,000 papers an hour but it will never be callod upon to pur form that task, bo far as tho news feature s con corned thoy will receive tho Publishers' Press Borvico. I wish the new veuture success, THE ALLEGED 1IEI11EKS. The cases against the alleged bribers in connection with the McCarrell bill and Sen atorial contest will be given to the grand Jury of Dauphin couuty on Friday, Tho prosecution against cx-Seuator Coyle, for- merly of this county but now a resident of Philadelphia, havo their agents in thb) county securing Information as to his political career. It is extremely likely that quite a number of peoplo from this town, Shenandoah, Mahanoy City and Tanisqua, will bo sub)Kenaod to appear as witnesses against tbo former Schuylkill statesman. It Is certain, there fore, that somo Interesting testimony will bo given to the grand Jury. The fact that dur ing a stato delegate fight at Tamaqua mmo years ago a draft on M. S. Quay was cashed at a bank In that town Is likely to play an Important part In tho trial. A similar con test iu Shenandoah Is also being Inquired Into. Iu order to counteract this testimony tbo friends of Coyle havo secured somo of his friends to go to Harrisburg and testify to his good character, political and otherwise Their object will lo to pn vc. If powible, that Coylo used nono but fair and honorable means during his political career In this county. Tho outcome of those bribery trials ato being watched with a great deal of Interest by both the friends and enemies of tbo accused. MINOR NOT 39. District Attorney Bochtcl Is likely to re ceive a ro-nominatlon at tho hands of tho Democrats. His senior deputy, M. P. Mc Laughlin, up to tho present time had been looked upon as a sure winner, but this has nil changed and tbow who profess to know say Bechtcl will again bo the nominee. In that event, there are soxcral candidates north of tho mountain for other offices whoso chances will be materially affected. There Is a general exnrosslon nf reurnk At the serious Illness of Senator Losch. It Is hoped ho will fully recover. His death would cause universal sorrow. It is said tho appointment of Schrink as postmaster here was part of a deal to secure a federal appointment for former Congress man Brumm. Tho latter is said to be anxious to become head of the ongravlng department at Washington. Tho members of tho Republican Execu- live Committee will meet hero to-morrow and fix tho time nud placo for holding tho countv aud district conventions.

New niohmond, Wis., Juno 14. In deacrlbably sad aro the scenes of deso lation wrought by Monday night's tornado, that has practically swept out of oxlstonco tho prosperous little city ot New Richmond. Out of 500 houses and Btore buildings comprising the town fully 300 wcro wrecked by the storm or destroyed by flro. Almost overy family has ono or more members among tho dead, Injured or missing, and llttlo groups are seen everywhere soarchtng for loved ones who may b burled In tho piles ot dobrls. Thus far 54 bodies have been found, although tbo numbor ot dead cortalnly will reach 100 or moro. The rocovored dead hnve, for tho most part, been taken to the Cntholls and Congrega tional churches, which, although tn tho vory edgo of tho storm's path, mi raculously escaped Its fury. In these temporary morgues tho sights aro such as to touch tho bardost heart, ns tho grief stricken living recognize In bodies, horribly mangled and often dis membered, tho remains of missing dear ones. Tho wounded And temporary asy lums In tho uninjured dwolllngs on either sldo of the path of devastation, whero doctors and nurses from nearby cities and towns are doing heroic work without sleep or rest. As many as possible ot the injured whose chances for rocovory aro considered good aro being sent to the hospitals at St. Paul nud Minneapolis, whero they will havo better caro. The business part of tho city cov ered a spaco of four squares each way. and was built solidly of brick and stono. This ontlro spaco was swept clear, foundation walls and In somo places masses ot dobrls alono marking wuere the business places formerly stood. Troos that had lined the streets of tho neighboring rosldonco district wero broken clear oil or twist ed and uprooted. Tho tornado camo up tho river Hudson, where tho damage was comparatively slight. Following tho general courso of tho river and the branch of tho Omaha road tho storm gained In Intensity as it progroesod, and was at Its worst when it struck tho business centor of Now Richmond. Outlying residences In the path ot the) storm wero stripped of shinglos and boards or sides wcro blown off, or, aa moro frequently happened, wore torn asundor and the fragments wero shat tered to the four winds of Heaven. Trees wero uprooted and roadways blocked, washed away or so overflowed as to bo mado entirely unrocognlzablo. The desolate view of Now Richmond ot today Is ono not soon to be forgot ten. Along the broken fragments of their homos the people wander holp- lessiy, striving somewhat aimlessly and hopelossly to gather togothor what has boon left to them. On the west and east limits of tho city many houses are still standing, with llttlo or no dnmnge, and to these homes tho occu pants welcomed their loss fortunata neighbors and friends. Tho property loss eannot be estimated at this tlmo, and may never bo accurately known. It was almost total, for the Insurance agsnts report that no tornado Insur ance was carried In tho town, and In only a small number of places, whero nro joined in me destruction at prop erty, will tho business men bo at all reimbursed for their losses. It Is tho average resident of New Richmond who estimates tho loss of llfo most seriously. They claim that hundreds are missing who were burled in tne ruins, and thero Incinerated. One such is C. A. Nolson, who 0wed tho Columbian restaurant, located oa Main street. His esUmoto' of tho loss is 400 aeaa. ho says that whan th rain storm which preceded the oyelone broke not leas than 20 persona rushed into nis piaco for shelter. Ho is posl tlvo that not moro than four besides nimsen eacaped. Moro conaarvatlvn oitlmates, however, giro tho death Usl as probably 100. A NEBRASKA CYCLONE.
