ST. PAUL , April II. St. Cloud and Sank
liaplds , Minn. , were swept by a terrible and
iliwtrtictivo cyclone nbontr:30 : o'clock this
afternoon. The first knowledge of the dis-
nsterwas contained In the following tele-
uram sent to Mayor Ames from St. Cloud
asking help :
"ToMAvonA.MKS , Minneapolis : Terrible
destructive cyclone passed ovcrSt. Cloud and
Sank Rapids late tills afternoon. Terrible
destruction here. Plcaso send up all tlio as

send special train with physicians to this
rlty' . ' A cyclone passed over the city tills
afternoon. A. areat many arc believed to
have been killed , but the number is not yet
known. ( Signed ) SACK KAPIDS. "
Immediately upon receipt of this news
preparations wcro made to respond to the
call for help. A train for St. Cloud loft nt G
o'clock. Information is very meagre , nnd
.sensational reports nro current. It is re
ported that ono hundred people were killed
at SI. Cloud. It is believed at least forty
persons have been killed , and about
seventy-live wounded. It Is Impossible to
get much information at this hour.
All Is excitement nnd the streets are filled
with excited men , frightened and weeping
women and children. The disaster is cer
tainly very appalling. Scores of houses have
been entirely wrecked and tlio'cxtcnt of the
loss of life cannot now bo slated. Tlio city
is lull of rumors and It is very difficult to ob
tain reliable news.
The term struck St. Cloud between the
round house and freight depot and swept a
path 000 yards wide through the city , level
ing between 150 and 200 houses.
N. It. Clark a well-known lumberman who
lives in St. Cloud , says ninety persons were
killed In .St. Cloud and more than a hundred
in lured , many of them seriously.
Superintendent \Vnkomnii of the Manitoba
road says that between thirty and forty per
sons weio killed at Sank Kapids , a small
town on tlio Manitoba nnd Northern Pacific
roads , a few miles southeast ot St. Cloud , nnd
nearly double Hint number injured.
The telegraph wires northwest of tills city
nro nil down , and no news either direct from
St. Cloud or Sank Hiplds lias been received
since 7 o'clock.
A terrific thunder storm passed over St.
Paul and Minneapolis about 0 o'clock , and n
heavy hail btorm followed , though of but
hlmit duration. In fact , ono storm cloud
after another has swept across the state ever
Hlneo last evening , niultho rain fall has been
heavy. The storm Is the worst ever known
in the Btato since ISS-'t , when 11 ichestcr and
J'lsln were devastated by a tornado.
The latest reports give the number killed
In St. Cloud as fifteen and the injured at
nbout twenty-five , and at Sank Rapids fif

n whirlwind about l.OCO feet in diameter. It
took almost every tieo In the circle from the
ground or twisted It elf at the trunk. Great
stones wcro torn up nnd can led along with
the wind , moving slowly along in a north
easterly direction. It wrecked the Catholic
chapel nnd several houses In Its course

completely demolished John Schwartz's
large brick house nnd fifty or moro smnller
frame houses like so many feathers. In

ATLANTIC , Iowa , April H. [ Special Tele
gram. J A devastating cyclone , accompanied
by hail and rain , passed east of Atlantic a't 4
o'clock this afternoon. It is supposed that
the cyclone started about three miles cast of
Griswohl , then passed north and slightly
cast , then after going about nine miles north
west of here , turned west and passed two
and a half miles cast of Bragton. Tlio
cyclone was very peculiar in appearance.
tV largo revolving cloud was soon , one-tonrth
of a mile wide , winch sent funnel shaped
shoots , resembling an elephant's trunk ,
down to the ground. Tlio whole cloud , how
ever , was very destructive. Southeast of
Atlantic , about live miles , Henry Rogers'
ho'iso was blown to atoms and the hired man
badly Injured. John Kirk's barn , "OJ feet
long , was shattered and the house partially
destroyed. The storm then passed northeast ,
taking everything In Its path. In Benton
township ten houses were totally destroyed ,
one woman was badly hurt , and piobably
will not iccovcr. Tlio storm passed twenty-
two miles east of Bragton , destroying the

Powdcrly to Gould.
Nmv YORK , April 14 , A voluminous cor
respondence lias passed between Gould and
Powderly , consisting of one letter from Pow
dcrly dated Scranton , Pa. , April 11. and a
reply from Gould of this date. Tlio following
Is tlio substance of Powderly's letter :
JAV Goi'i.n. Esq. , President Missouri
Pacific llallnia'l. Dear Sir : The events of
the pnH ioity-clghl hours must liavo demon
strated to yon the absolute necessity of
bringing this terrible strusglc In the south
west to a speedy termination. Yon have the
power , authority nnd means to bring the
strike to IMI end. I Imvn done everything in
my power to end the strike. The gentlemen
associated with mo have done tlio same.
Kverything consistent with honor
and manhood has been done in tlio Interest
of peace. No false notions of priilu or dlir-
nlty have swayed us with our dealings with
you or the gentlemen associated with yon.
Powderly then refers to the celebrated con
ference with Gould on Sunday , Marcn US ,
and reviews the already published features
of that conference , together with his ( Pow-
derley's ) constructions upon Gould's Ian-
uiumo nnd the telegram Mint by him to
Hoxle ; tohlsown orderdiiectlni ; the strikers
to return to work , and to the misunderstand
ing and complications which ensued. In
this connection Powderly declares that
Gould's after-statements that the letter sent
Powdcrly on the day of the conference , on-
clusliii : the dispatch to Hoxle , had been pre
pared several days , was not correct ,
inasmuch as Gould had changed It in ono
paitlcular after the matter had been talked
over. Powderly reviews other features of
that conference , and also one held March 'M ,
and then says :
" 1 did not hear cither von or Mr. Hopkins
say that the present troubles along your road
would be arbitrated with men who were not
at work. It was my firm belief , whmi I left
you that night , that you meant to have tlio
entire affair submitted to arbitration at the
first possible moment. That belief Is shared
In by McDowell , who was present during the
interview. When you sent the telegram to
Huxio , yon sent It as president of the Mis
souri Pacific railroad company. 1'ou
sent It as the chief sends a
mcssaeo to an inferior officer ,
nnd it meant ns much to a sensible man as
the most Imperative order could possibly
moan. When I , as chief ollicer of tlio
Knights Of Labor , send a message
such as that , It Is understood to
bo my wishes , and those wishes are
respected by tlio subordinate ollicer to whom
they are sent. It is not ills place to put a
different construction on them and give them
Ills own interpretation. His duty is to obey
tlio spirit of the instructions. Tlio man in
power need not bo an autocrat In outer to
have his wishes respected. That was the
idea I entertained when I left your house
that night. "
After devoting some space to defining the
relation 01'a district assembly to the general
assembly , Powderly says : "When on Mon
day-March 29 , von " sent mo a letter marked
'personal , ' you"at tlio same time told the
newspaper correspondent that you had done
so. What your motive was in marking your
letter 'personal' and at the same time inform
ing representatives of tlio press that you had
done so , 1 do not know , nor do 1 question
your motive. I felt it to bo my duty to let
the public s > ce tlio letter , which contained
notmngof a personal nature Whatever. Thcro
are people wno might bo uncharitable enough
to say that your intention was to give the
impression that ( bore was something between
you and me which would not bear tlio
light ol public scrutiny. 1 have nothing to
conceal. Ton can settle this strike. Its
longer continuance rests with yon and von
alone. Kvcry act of violence , every drop of
blood that may uoslicd from this time forth ,
must be laid at your door. The Knights of
L'ibor were not founded to promote or shield
wrongdoing , and to-day the order ot the
Knights of Labor stand between your prop
erty and ruin. Vim have said that the order
of the Knights of Labor was n conspiracy , a
secret menace , etc. I am willing , as cliiof
officer , to lay everything connected with our
order bare to the world if von will on the other
hand , lay open to the publictliu means and
methods whereby you have piled up the
wealth which you control , and allow the
tribunal of public opinion to pass judgment
on thutwo nnd say which Is conspiring. Do
you accept the challenge ?
"You have instructeit your legal adviser to
proceed against every man connected with
tlio Knights of Labor for damages sustained
since tins strike began. Two weeks ago 1
said : 'Do not do tillsToday I say : 'Bogin
at once ; ' lay claims for dam
ages in every court within
whoso jurisdiction a knight exists ;
proceed at once , and In every .state where
you can recover dnmaucs , do so if tlio law
will sustain you. Let the majesty of the law
bo vindicated. It is just and rldit that it
should Ins so. Wo are willing to face you be
fore th'j law , and will use no oilier weapons.
It'you Imvo at nil times obeyed the law in
vour dealings. In the methods by which you
have acquired your immense fortune , then it
is time that tlio many offenses
witlt which you aio charged should
bo refuted. Yon Imvo remained
silent under the many damaging charges of
injuring tlio state. Wo will bo your avengers.
If you have been wronged , wo will let U bo
known to the world through tlio medium of
thocomts of justice , and let mo say right
lieru that no money will buy a verdict nt the
hi'.nds of these courts. This certainly means
warbut It'b : i war between legitimate capital ,
honest enterprise nnd honest labor on the
ono hand , nnd Illegitimate on tlio other
hand. There will bo no mobs in tills supreme
premo hour to silence any man's opinion.
No converts will bu niailu by physical fou-e.
You have been warned thai your lllo Is In
danger. Pay no attention to such talk. No
man who has tlio Interest of his country at
heart would harm a hair of your head. But
the system which reaches out on all sides
gathering in millions of treasure , nnd keep
ing them out of the legitimate channels of
commerce , must die. 1 have taken counsel
fromthubostlegal mlndsof the UnitcdStnlc.s
Woaio prepared to face you before tlio courts
and now await your action In tlio matter.
This is not a threat. 1 speak for .100.080 or
ganized men , who nro ready to pa ) oat the
last furtliing In order that justice may prevail.
You have it in your po\\er to make liiends of
these mo'i by acting the part of a man , nnd
bv taking this matter Into your own hands.
Will you do so , nnd end this strike In tliu In
terest of humanity aim our common coun
try ? "
Powdcrly's letter wns sent to Gould
throuirh W. O. McDowell , with Instructions
that If Gould , to whom these written Instruc
tions weio also submitted , did not cuiisunt to
an honorable settlement of the difficulty ha-
fine , r > o'clock of the day the letters were de
livered , or at that hour htill preserved silence ,
to allow the letters to bo published.
( iori.t's ANswini.
At tlio opening of his reply to 1'owderly ,
Gould quotes this letter of instructions to
McDowell , and acknowledges the receipt of
Powderly's letter , the substance of which Is
given above. Gould then proceeds to con-
btmo Powderly's letter ns an olliclnl declara
tion that the Knights of Labor
hnd determined to pursue him per
sonally unless the Missouri Pacific
company should yield to its demand
In what they called the strike on that road ,
In answer to these personal threats ho would
say that ho wns still a free American citizen ,
Gould then refers to his low beKlnnlnir in
life and to his success throuih habits of tem
perance and industry , and that if , as Pow
derly bays , ho is now to bo destroyed by the
Knights of Labor , it .Is fortunate
ho has retained his early habits
of industry. Gould then says
ho U quite content to leave his personal
records' in the hands of his neighbors and
business asrociates. If they have might .to
compUiln-of ho will bo glad to submit tu any
arbitration. Gould then recounts the tact
that when the strike commenced ho was far
away from the sec no of the trouble ,
and quotes a telegram from his subordinates
describing the difficulty nnd other messages
licrctof.qre miblUrjed during tlio carly part ot
tub trouulesV TUG lost dispatch quoted Isonq
IromA. L. Hopkins to 1'owderly earnestly
nrclng that the strike Is unjust to both , sides ,
ns the road is In tliqhiimls of receivers.
"This dispatch , " ' savs Gould , "yon
never answered. . .This correspondence
places the continuance qf tliq strike on your
< honldcr.4. Yon sat still and was silent after
Mr. Hopkln's urgent appeal , nnd allowed the
strike logo on allowed the company's prop
erty to bo forcibly seized , and the citizen ! ) ot
four states anil ono territory to bo deprlvcit
of their rightful railroad facilities. Thus
forced , the board of directors , before my re
turn , jilnced the matter In Mr. llovlo's hand
by a formal resolution , nnd that disposition
IMS never boon changed. "
Gould then enters into a long review ot
the features of the difficulty already pub-
Ishcd nnd ropubllshedmaintaining that the
company's offer to take back the strikers
who had not destroyed properly had been
strictly lived up to , and adds that the com
pany Is still ready to live up to Its agreement
in that regard.
In conclusion Gould says : "In the face of
nil this , you notify mo that unless by fl o'clock
1 personally consent to do something pre
cisely what , 1 di ) not sco , then personal con
sequences of a sort vaguely oxpicssed ,
but not hard to understand , will ,
nt the hands of your older ,
be visited upon me. Let me again remind
you that it is an American citizen whom you
nud your order thus propose to destroy. The
contest is not between your order and mo ,
but between your order and the laws of the
land. Your order has already defied these
laws In preventing , by violence , this
company from operating Its roads.
You held , then , that this company should
not operate its roads under tin ; conditions
prescribed by the law , but only under the
conditions prescribed by you. You now de
clare , in ell'oct , that I hold my Individual
prroperty und rights not as other
men hold theirs , but only at
tlio peril of your lettliiK loose
irrevocably , after 5 o'clock , your order upon
me. If tills Is true of tills company , and of
me , it is true of nil other men 41111 ! companies.
If .so , you and your secret order are the law ,
and nn American citizen Is such only In
name. Already for weeks your order has , In
your attack upon this company , not hesitated
to disable it by violence from
rendering Its duty to the imbl'o , and
from doing work nnd paylne wages to men
at least three times your own number , who.
working as they were by your side , wens nt
least deserving of your sympathy. Havinc
published this violence beyond even the great
f jrbearance of the phblic , and found in this
direction the cause to hesitate , you now turn
upon me and'propose' that wronsrs you have
hitherto inflicted upon the public shall now
culminate in an attack upon an individual.
In tills , ns I have said , tlio
real issue is between you and
the laws of the land. It may be , before you
are thromrh , those laws will efficiently advise
you that I , ns an Individual cltl/cn , nm not
beyond their care. Very respectfully ,

T1IK SlTtTATiru IN EAST ST. I.OUtS.
ST. Loris , April 14. The situation in
East St. Louis Is unchanged , with the ex
ception that various roads are iiv better shape
to do business ; > nd nro doing more , bwltch
engines in the. 'various yards are busy
and n resumption of business seems
more probable than , at any time..since
the beginning of the strike. The great draw
back to the various companies tuliv-rcsum- '
ing is tlio inability of'the St. Louis Bridge
company and Beit line to afford sufficient
traiiblerriiiK facilities across the bridge and
river from tlio levee to the various yards.
The Bridge , company employed a few moro
men yesterday and a few more this morning.
The Belt line nnd the Bridge company re
quire sixteen switchmen on each side of the
river , and the number of men now employed
Is inadequate. Tlio officials say tills state of
affairs is not because the men do not desire
to return to won ? , but because they are afraid
to do so for fear of the consequences after
the militia is oidcrc.il uwny. The
business of the various roads yester
day exceeded that of any previous
day since tlio strike , and from appearances
to-day it is .safe to predict still moro complete
resumption of freight traffic. The Chicago ,
Burlington & Quincy , and Chicago & Al
ton roads seem to bo in tlio best condition so
far as their ability is concerned to handle
freight , and the men in these yards have been
busy all morning making up trains. Fifty
men , eight of whom aru old hands , returned
to work this morning , giving this road a full
force of platform men. Ono freight train
was sent out over this road this morning.
At the Burlington & Quincv yards and
freight depot the condition of affairs Is the
same as nt the Alton ytuds nnd depot , and
freight trains on that road were sent out this
morning. Men inother yards , executing tlio
Louisville & Nashville und Cairo shoit line ,
are busy making up trains , and it is
expected they will succeed in sending
them out Inter In the day.
Tlio situation at the Indianapolis it St.
Louis yards in East St. Louis is reported to
lie in a promising condition. The company
had all the men nc-cdcd , and was doing busi
ness in earnest , ono train having been sent
out. The Carlo Short line has two switch
engines at work making up trains nnd mov
ing freight. The Vnndalla asront claims they
are receiving and handling largo amounts of
freight.

WASHINGTON. April 14. [ special Tele
gram , ] Joseph II. Itcall , president of the
American Agricultural nnd Dairying associa
tion , Issued a circular to-day addressed to
the farmers nnd dairymen of the United
States , in which ho says : "Tho enemies of
the dairy and of consumers of butter nro or
ganizing to defeat our movement In behalf of
honest Industry nnd puio food. Manufac
turers of counterfeit butter have held a
meeting and agreed to raise 5500,000 to de
feat our bill now before congress. Iteallzlng
a prollt , ns they state themselves , of 55,000,000
per year on the manufacture , they could well
afford to do this , and retailers of the stuff
could give ten times ns much , for their prollts
arc ten times greater. Thank God that wo
have a congicss of the United States
that recognizes the Importance. In the
value of the agricultural nnd dairy In
terests of the country ns paramount to nil
others , and that , so far as ascertained , nro In
full sympathy with our demand. There Is
no mnn in either the senate or the house who
could bo bought to assist in tills monumen
tal fraud , and the purpose to raise money for
this object should of itself bo sufficient
grounds for condemning the whole enter
prise. On the contrary , 1 believe the mem
bers all want to protect dairy farmers and
consumers of butter. No sum of money
could have placed our measure In the favora
ble position It now occupies , nor secure its
passage , and no amount , however great , can
defeat it on a square Issue. But the trickery
nnd sharp practlc , that surrounds the entire
tralllc In imitation butter will bo resorted to ,
and nothing left undone that rascality nnd
shrewdness caii accomplish. The sharpest
and most unprincipled lawyers and lobbyists
In the country will bo employed to conspire
ncainst us , and every known method'resorted
to that could defeat or delay us. Dairymen
of America , wo have a terrible enemy to deal
with. He strikes In the dark as ho works in
the dark. Arise In our might and crush him
out. Meet in every village , town and hamlet
at once , and organize to assist ns by bringing
your direct inlluence to bear upon congress.
iVdopt resolutions-showing you feel and
suiter. Demand that the fraud bo extermin
ated root and branch. Denounce every ar-
tlclo produced or sold by the concerns mak
ing or selling tlio stuff , and taboo all inter
ested In * any way , or who sympathize wither
or countenances them. Those who make or
sell Imitation butter are enemies square
enemies of the public weal , and' should bo
classed as criminals of the lowest and most
dangerous order. "
-WIIKN co.vmiEss WILL Anjounx.
'Congressman Blunt , of-Gcorgia , says ho be-
llovcs congress will atljouru in about' ninety
days. _ ' "rbclieve , " ho said , talking of the
work of congress , "that we are through now
with silver and labor legislation for this con
gress. The tariff and Intcr-htnto commerce
bills arc the only measures that are liable to
consume any more time , nnd I think the
former stands a pretty good show of being
passed by the Forty-ninth congress , as there
are propositions in it which commend them
selves favorably to the majority. The ap-
propiiatlon committee in the house has been
backward in reporting some of the bills re
ferred to it , and naturally the naval commit
tee has peen forced to adopt the same course
on account of tlio agitation regarding the
Improvement of the navy. Still , I do not
.sec any necessity for the session of congress
to bo prolonged beyond the middle of July at
the furthest. "
TIM : I'opri.Aii srxECiir.s.
There Is a greater demand for speeches on
the silver question than for any speeches
that have been made in the senate on politi
cal issues. The largest eiders received at the
government printing office this session was
for William L. Scott's speech in support of
the compromise on tlio silver question. The
next largest order was for Black's speech
attacking the financial policy of tlio adminis
tration , which was calle.il for by members of
botli parties.

TAII1IT IIKPOIIM.
It Is probable that tlio work of the tariff re
formers has had some effect in the liouso ,
and it Is not altogether improbable that the
Morrison bill will bo passed. Every measure
has been relegated to give advantage to the
tariff bill. Trades upon everything and for
everything have been Hindu to get votes for
the bill and it is htatcd that It will bo sup
ported by nearly nil of Hie democrats all ex
cepting eight or ten In Ohio , who will op
pose It on account of Its black cyo to wool.
Some surprise was expressed to-day when
It was announced that Mr. Itandall
had consented to vote for the bill ,
lam toldhowever , ho hns not promised to
supported the billbut on thoconlrary has been
thinking of pouring Into the house a num
ber of appropriations bills , nnd defeating the
consideration of the measure for some time ,
and then finally rallying his forces nnd de
feating It on a voto.
Many believe that Mr. Itandall cannot
maintain u sincere and consistent attitude on
the tariff , and vote for tlio Morrison bill ; that
If he votes to reduce protection on tliu ar
ticles enumerated In tills bill , ho cannot con
sistently ask anti-reformers to help him defeat -
feat bills which may heretofore bo brought
In Jiffectlnz iron ore and metals generally.
Mr , Kamhill Is placed in.somewhat embar
rassing situation by this bill , and many people -
plo are wondering what he will do , for ho
lir.s refused to express an opinion ono > vny or
another. '

A. 1C. McClure , edltor-of the Philadelphia

turned from Buffalo to-day , where lie 1ms
been nt tlio head of an Investigating commit

lawyer said to mo : ' 1 have just received a

Tlio Pension Investigation.
WASHINGTON , April M. The senate com
mittee on expenditures of public monies
resumed the examination of Commissioner
Black to-day. Senator 1'ltimb called up the
case of Lieutenant Eastwood , of the Twenty-
second'KenluoKy volunteers. General Black
said , In reply to Plumb , that the claimant's
regiment > vas mustered In for thirty days ser
vice. Twenty days later the claimant was
allowed to go homo on account of illness ,
wlicro ho remained until ho was mustered
out. IIo was never in action , and never in
tfie presence of tlio enemy , nnil never slept
out ii oors but ono night. Tlio records of the
adjutant general nml surceon general's office
bbow no record of any disability. Tlio claim
was not filed till 18SO. The evidence secured
In a subsequent examination showed the
man had rheumatism before ho entered the
service. In 18.MJ ho cut himself sevorelv with
nn nd/.e , and later ho fell from a house and
Injured himself permanently. Tlio ease was
allowed by Commissioner Clark.
When the present administration canio
Into power , tills man liad received as arrears
of pension Sl0.ir > . . Among the papers In the
the case was a letter written oy a man named
Kwlng , to General J. S. Williams , then sen
ator , urging speedy action on the case. The
letter concluded : "By giving him this as
sistance you will favor one ol ycur warmest
friends in past contests. " General Williams
endoised tfie letter : "I liopu the commis
sioner of pensions will make this a special
case. "
Black stated that there was absolutely no
valid cviden o in support of the claim , and
the $10,000 might as well have been allowed
for any other character of traud. lie stated
Ills understanding was that Kwlng was n
strong partisan , but in reply to a series of
searching questions by Mr. Plumb , said there
was nothing in the records to show whether
Ewjng and otJicr claimants were republicans
or democrats , or that the knowledge of their
politics over reached the pension ollico , nor
was there any evidence that the letter of
Ksvlng , with tlio demands of extortion , over
gut beyond the- decision of the pension ollico ,
or that it inllucnced the decision of the case.
During' the progress of tlio inquiry there
wcro .several controversies butweun the mem
bers of the committee us to the scope and
course of the investigation. The majority of
tlio members claimed that the proceedings
should bo confined to the examination of the
records until they were disposed of , while tliu
minority maintained that Black ought to bo
allowed to bring in such outside matters as
hnd led or assisted him In the formation of
liis opinion that the ollico , under hta picdo
lessors , was nninagod as a political machine. .
What these outside i tatters are have not vet
transpired. Tlio committee will probably
meet lurain Saturday nnd try to bring the ex
amination of the record eases submitted by
Black to an end very .soon.

sary. Six other men , badly Injured , wcro
taken to Beatrice for treatment. One or two
of them are In n serious condition.
A little girl named Smith , about ten years
of age , who was riding in the day coach , had
her head .smashed , and was dead when taken
out. All-tho passengers were bruised consi'd-
ably , and It Is feared that some of them have
sustained severe internal Injuries that have
not ynt conic to the notico'ot the physicians.
Tlio accident was caused by the spreading
of the r.iiis , ono on tliu outside having been
split in some unknown way.
Later The girl killed lives at Olcelo. She

dent occurred Is on a sharp curve near a
bridge. The embankment is only six feet
high , but tlio cars rolled over on their tops in

HIGH IjICKXSK AT HASTINGS.
The Now City Oillccrs Determined to
Strictly Knl'orco tlio Law.
HASTINOB , Neb. , April ! ) . [ Special. ]
The new mayor and city council were Inaugu
rated last evening. Tlio city government , as
now constituted , is as follows :
Mayor Samuel Alexander.
Councilmcn W. 11. Stock. E. Lnngovln ,
C. C. Rlttcnhouse , O. Oliver , T. 15. Farrell , E.
11. Lewis nnd R. Covert.
The latter two , Lewis nnd Covert , wcro
elected by the temperance party. I'lio first
business of any Importance to come before
the council was the question of granting sa
loon licenses for the ensuing year. A for
midable remonstrance against the granting
of licenses was piesontcd , but on n strict
party vote It was laid upon the table.
Nine parties made application for license.
Four of them had compiled with the law and
so the council granted their petitions. Five of
the applications iwcro found deficient In nil
the icfpilremenls of law and were laid over.
Although the high license party were vic
torious In llio recent election , it Is quite evi
dent that limy are moro disposed to follow
tlio requirements of the law moro strictly
than they have In the past.
Mayor Alexander Informs the Bui : cot re
spondent that ho proposes to enforce the
laws against the saloons , the gamble rs , ami
the social ovll , and see that tlio laws nro
strictly obeyed , There has been entlicly too
much laxity in the enforcement of the laws
In the past , and Mayor Alexander will have
the moral support of the business men and ,
citizens generally.
Tlio main tople of interest In Hastings to
day Is the proposition to bond the city for the
purpose of constructing a system of water
works. Thojilcctlon takes place Thursday ,
nnd the amount of bonds to bu voted Is ? , -
000 , A canvass of the business pmtlon of
the community Indicates that the bonds will
carry by a good majority.
