A numba ? ( f poraaiu were Injured. Some fatalities are reported but the loaa of life U not BJ great aa might bo expected In view of the extent and deetrnctiou of property. Nothing definite can ba given be given yet , bat the lots of property ia estimated up in the hundreds of thouianda. Thostorm madoita appearance about 4. o'clock this afternoon , coming from the direction of Wyando.te , In the of three large , dark , fnnnol-ahapedclonds , rapidly succeeding ono another.

At 11:30 : three deaths reported and many more injured , but only a few dangerously so. The loss of property ia now roughly estimated at $300,009. None of the finest resi dences of the city Buffered , yet many houses of well to do cltizms are raised and o"tUg ia ind ehantioa Innumerable torn to puc.a.

Ho waa asked : "As a democrat , whom yon know democrats revere , do you feel that Mr. Tildon Is the man who could effect unity in the democratic elements of Now York ? ' "Tildon , " answered the ex gov ernor , "Is on able man , but ono whoso hnblta of business have been such aa to render him misunderstood by the domocratn in the country , or rather dlflicult for them to understand , and the nanio characteristics may result In misconception of the man , oven by those whoto business hnblta have been similar to hla own. This difl'uulty was in the way of unification cf the re publicans na well aa democrats. There are norno clearly marked Issues be tween the parties , " Rjgardlng the tariff , ho felt that thla country waa eurely ei.torlng upon anew now relationship with the world. Gov. Seymour said : "Wo have soon that both Franco and Germany have shown an Inclination to abut out the products of our country. If Gladstone's ad ministration should baovorthrown and tory party should come into power Great Britain , it would properly mposo tarlffi upon our grain and ether luds of food export , for the land- oldorn In Great Britain are severely _ resflod by our competition , Taoio who oppoio f roe trade In Great Britain ro aided by the speeches and nrgu- iionta of indiscreet high tariff men in hla country. All elapses now atudy ho prospects of the export cf ur products In making up tholr pinions as to the business prosperity f onr country. If the policy of onr government alma at cutting off all im ports It will end In the destruction of our export trade , I think thla will bo the principal oubject of discussion n the near future. In the proaldon- , ial campaign next year I think it will bo the subject that will moat occupy : ho publlo mind , without regard to ) arty platforms. I think that the , rue policy ia In adhering to a rev enue tariff , I am fiiendly to the manufacturing Interests ; I think great danger to tholr success grows out of the extreme vlows of men claiming to bo their champions. If t la true that a nound policy demands v protective tariff here , then It ia true that it ia demanded by the interests of all other countries. The dlecusalon of this toplo will bo of good uao In leadIng - Ing men fiom minor subjects of part nership and will build up a class of political leaders who will not merely seek the spoils of ollioa. Man da not make discussions , dlicuesions make men , as was the case in thn days ol Webster , Clay , Oalhonu , Van Huron and Wright. 1 conclude that Bock , of Kentucky , ia n gentleman who may not bo obscure In the dleonaulon of thoio questions , next year. " Seymour further said ho would advocate - vocato a law of congress making It a crime for any resident within our borders dors to plan or aid In the execution ol violent measures toward persona IE this or any other country. Thlb woule at once bo self-protection and at the same tlmo an upright obsoivanoo ol relations , which should , If they do no ! now oxlat between the United Statei nnd all ether powero.

' A Feeling of Uncertainty and Expectancy Prevalent , The Probable { Shortage in Wheat and Its Efleot. CmiAcn , 111. , May 12.-Uerald npoclitl , ] The week haa boon a dull ono on the board oi trade. Only by apurts has much activity beenmauU [ feeted , Neither the bulls nor bears were , HS n rule , anxious to trade hoatlly. It haa been a tlmo of waitIng - Ing and expectancy. The irroalatablo ntronght which upheld the grain mar kotan abort tlmo ago , when the acaro ever the predicted falluro of the win ter wheat crop waa at its height nnd everybody was n bull , departed , nnd a feeling ot uncertainty succeeded. The May report of the national de partment of agriculture waa anxiously awaited , nnd attempts were mudo to gain an Insight Into Its nature before Its issuance. Operators hold aloof until Ita appearance before venturing far either way , hence the busi ness of the week was lim ited. The report was antici pated by the larger traders who keep well Informed of the condition of the orops through their correspondents in all parta of the country. Kirlylntho week atronghouaoa were advising tholr cuatomora to sell Alay wheat , nnd had pretty well evened up their own dealt. Juuo wheat was likewise nuloadod , And tholr purchases hive been largely In the longer futures , July has boon debatable ground , there bolng plenty both oi buyers and sellers. The crowd is much moro bearish than a wceka o , as was early aeon in the slight effect of the dolorous report of the Illinois bureau tf agriculture , which an nounced a loan of 40 per cent , of tbo winter crop , or a falling off In the yield In thla etuo : nlono of 30,000,000 bnshols. This la believed hsro tu bo exaggerated. The bureau commences gathering Ita data at the beginning of the month , and the outlook to-dny la moro on * oouraglng , But conceding a defic iency 100,000 000 In the wheat crop of the country , and thla la n largo estimate when wo consider that there la no reason to expect much If any lets than the aventgo jleld of spring spring wheat , there certainly can bo no shortage , any the beara , when the aurplua of the liu > t harvest will nearly equal thla figure The f jrolgn de mand la small , and no betterment Is promised for nome tlmo to conic ; very llttlo wheat la being consumed by mil lers , who ore Idb through an over production nf ibur , and each wheat ia acknowledged to bo dear at present values. From nil sections it la re ported that largo areas sown to winter wheat , reckoned aa n failure , ire re nown to spring , and the aero- nye in the northwoat la hrgoly Increased , which la another mat ter to bo taken into consideration. Corn la an Inconsequential cereal thla tlmo of year. It followa the loadIng - Ing market In ita variations , but just at present acquires a llttlo Individuali ty from the heavy rains throughout the country , which have not only checked the not jet completed seeding , but will , It la feared , ro * the seed al ready planted. There has been wide spread complaint that much of the corn reserved for sowing was In bad condition , lacking vitality , and not nblo to stand any strain. A number of wealthy operators have bought corn during the week in con siderable quantities nnd this has given the m&rkot some uteadlntsa. Oats have ruled qnlot and there has been llttlo of Interest In the trado. Rye has not fully maintained last last week's ahnrp advnnco. The clique lately manipulating ( hia grain ia thought to have Bold out. Barley 1 nearly llfolcea. Provisions have maintained con- idornblo steadiness. The situation , of the market is exactly the name as a week ago. The production la email and there are plenty who believe la futnro high prices. Lake freights are badly demoralized , rates to Buffalo bolng 2 ] 3 for oats and 2 } a for corn.
