Bio LAKI : , Minn. , April 15. [ Special Tele

apolis , have just boardid tl.e south-bound
Missouri P.iclllc train completely exhausted.
The latter told jour icporter that new bodies
were beingrecoveicil hourly liom thodcbils
and being brought In fiom the country In
the track ot the tornado. Twelve Injured
people were brought In. Several of the'-o
will die. Four have died of wounds since
moinlng. At a chinch cast of It.c2's , thii-
tcen Instead of ten of a wedding party wcio
killed , Including the officiating minister.
At Sank liaplds thiity-one nio alieady
dead. 1 ho list vv ill be swelled lo forty.
Dr. Ames , of Minneapolis , who Is on duty
at St. Cloud , told Di. Dalllvcr that at least
thirty deaths can but result fiom tbo visita
tion tlieie.
Captain Follcy , an old settler of Sank
Ilaplds , weighing'AO pounds , was blown -100
feet In the air , but was only bruised , and
vvoikcd with the wounded all night. Ho
says the water In his sl.xty-tlvo loot well was
all sucked out , leaving only the sand at the
bottom ,
The force of the storm was such as to
wicnch elf the door of the sate in the post-
office nnd cat ry it some distance from tlio
building. A dim eh bell weighing 1,500
pounds was found among the debris ol the
building-ICO lect away from any building.
The remains ot the dead aio almost un-
recognl/able , being completely flushed and
blackened. There are a remarkable number
ol Injuiles about the hip and spine , and
many of the sin vlvois will bo disabled for
life.

Tlio delegation of doctois from St. Paul and
Minneapolis worked all night under the dis
advantage of liav ing no splints or dings , as
the drug stoie was completely demolished.
The splints aie all made from shingles , with
which tlio ground was strmvn in the track of

ST. CI.OUD , Minn. , Apiil 15. [ Special
Telegiam.J The woik of devastation in the
distilet visited by the cyclone Is complete , as
the littered and shivered icmains of what
\v 010 once fiamo buildings vv ill testify. The
fccene this moinlng after dajbiealc was ono
to appall the strongest hcaited. For a width
ot about COO Icet , i mining isouthwest to noith-
cast , the toinado had leveled almost eveiy-
thing betoio It. An occasional building ,
paitlally wrecked , being left to tell the talc
of devastation , as it by contrast with the
iiiln to be seen on every side. Scaicely a
vestige of any structuio icmalncd so as to bo
iccognUcd , the gionnd being liteially cov
ered with all kinds ot Umbeis luomiscuously
tangled together.
It Is estimated that 400 structuics wcro
blown down , all frame , and by no means
costly. Tlio Manitoba depot was nntootcd
and wiccked , thus almost cntlicly cutting oil
all telegiapblc communication. The only
building of any conscnuenco , aside liom the
depot Injuicd was the breweiy , and this \vas
badly watpcd and twisted. The small icsl-
denrosaio mostly occupied by foreigners ,
whose names it has been Imuosslble to se-
cuio with any degico of accuiacy. Tlio
Catholic hospital is filled with the wounded ,
but only Ilvo 01 six ot them are considered
dangeions. Otheisaio a little hurt. Theio

night , besides a nnmbci that vveio taken to
pilvato icsldentes. To day theio aio about
foily thcie , two having died and tlio otlieis
having been lemoved.
The colllnspiovldcd for Iho dead aio ly
ing at the engine bouse. The bodies were
neatly diessed to day and placed within
them. Tholuiiond will probably occur to-
monovv and it will undoubtedly bo a largo
public alla'.r. The scene in the engine
house , wheio the dead bodies are surrounded
by people of various nationalities , jabbciing
In theh native tongues , is a peculiarly stilk-
ingone. It is impossible to say anything
about rebuilding , but It Is not believed theio
will be much delay In loplaclng tlio struc
tures as tenants , for bouses of the laboring
classes aie in demand. The loss will
baldly go above § 50,000 to 500,000.

Tlio Cyclone's Devastating U'orlc in
Mills nml I'Yeniotit Counties.
MAI.VIUIN , Iowa , April 15. [ Special Tele
gram. ] News icached hcio to-day that the
cv clone of last evening had devastated portions
tions of Mills and Fremont counties. The
Hist place that the furious storm struck was
Llcksklllct , a litttlo town seven miles south
ofPlitm Hollow. Thosloun made Its appear
ance from the soitlhvvest , completclv demol
ishing a farm house about a mile from town ,
then making a bound did not again stiiko the
ground until the town was icachcd , where It
vv recked tlnce lesWonces , a blacksmith shop
and the poslolllce , scattering their contents.
Prom Llcksklllct the storm moved on to Ban-
dolph , vliero the cj clone wrecked
a barn In the southwest part of
town , moro or less destroying a number of
small houses , a Inmberyaid , Implement shed ,
and jumping over the Presbyteilan church ,
stiuck the M. E. church , leveling the side
wall and leaving Iho building to icst ou the
end walls. The structure was moved about
one and one-half feet and damaged to the
amount of about 5100 or S500. Pas
sing Randolph Iho stoim continued
its destructive coniso to Stinhan ,
where It completely demolished Kay-
tan's store , implement house and sta
bles , and blow the M. K. chinch to atoms. A
number of smaller residences wcro more or
less damaged and the town gcncially shaken
up. The tclegiaph vviies weie twisted into a
lope , cars blown fiom the switch onto the
main tiack and many moio mlnoi fieaks In
dulged In by the maddened elements. So far
as icpoitcd no lives wcio lost nor anyone In
jured. The storm was accompanied with or
lucceded by heavy hall and rain and more
or less thunder and lightning. Tlio bicadth
of tlio Ktoini track vailed fiom 100 to 200 feet
and whenever it readied the eaith it cairied
destination in its path.
In the Track of the Tempest.
ATLANTIC , Iowa , Apill 15. [ Special Telo-
giam.J Finthcr paitieulais of the storm
which devastated so much countty jestenlay
have been icceived. It Is the general opinion
that the stoi m was as great as any that over
occurred , and if it had passed through this
city would have caused gieat loss of life.
The stoun traveled about eighty-live miles an
hour , going Irom Gilswold to Coon Uauids
in about tlihty minutes. Bepoits have been
received coveting tlio territoiy fiom Grlswold
to Aniliibon , foity-sK mllus. In that distance
fifty-livo dvv clings vvoio demolished , nine
poisons wounded , ono moitall.v wounded
and one killed. Besides lids a number of
school childien wcio bacHy hint at
the sclioolhouso beyond Audubon. F. M.
Phillips , of Omaha , lost his mammoth stock
barn in Bciiton township , in which 350 head
of cattle were fed , but only tlneo cattle were
killed , and all the loss is coveted by § 10,003
insuianco in the State Insurance company ,
of DCS Moines. Half tlio people in Atlantic
liavo been visiting tlio path of tlio cyclone.
Everything in tlio tiack of the stoim was de
stroyed. Fences , outhouses , bains and stock
pens wcie levelled , and trees and orchards
were torn down. The loss of pioperty be
tween Gilswold and Audubon is estimated
ntSlGO.OOO , but this is a low estimate. Veiy
little of tlio loss is covcied by Instiiance.
The icason the loss of life was so small is
that cveiyono had a cave.

Money Tor the Men.
CntcAoo , April n. [ Special Telciam. ]
"I have just letnrned from St. I.otils , " silil
J. J. Mahoncy , member of the state executive
board of the Knljjlits of Labor , "lain well
pleased with the outlook. The men aio in
the best of spirits and determined to fight it
out until our oidcr Is recognized , nnd until
Oould and Hoxlo agree to nibltrate the dltlei-
cnccs that exist. There will bo no violence
In Kasl St. Lonls. The state , district and
national executive boatds will see to it that
no excuse Is alloulcd for an attack by the
militia. The rallio.ids aio doing noth
ing , and can do nothing until
they make peace with their old employes.
Tlio stoiiiM sent out by lloxio about a
hundred cats being moved daily are simply
pure fiction. I think it Is sate to picdlct that
the stiiko will boovei Inside of two weeks.
Tlio business men of St. I/ouls aio brlnglnga
pressuie upon Hoxlo that lie cannot long
withstand. Lest , however , the fight may bo
prolonged , the Illinois state executive board
will begin at onca to lalso money tor the sup
port ot the sttlkcrs and their families.
"Tlio Knights of Labor , " said Worthy Fore
man Klcliaid Griffiths , "made , a j ear ago , n
general assessment on the cntlie eider tor
the benefit of the Wabash strikcis. The
assessment was only 33 cents , but over
8100,000 was raised and the stiIke was won.
I don't know vliat assessments will be made
this time. 1 think theio me 500,000 moio
knights in good standing to-day than there
were n year ago. An assessment ot CO cents
would , I think , lalse at least 5300,000. The
method of assessment is , of cotuse , easy , and
is thiough the ditleicnt lodges.
Appeal For Aid.
PiiiLAnm.rniA , April 15. Uoncral Mas-
tei Workman 1'ovvdeilv , of the Knights ot
Label , to-day addressed the following cir
cular to the members of the older :
To the Noble Order of Knights of Labor of
Ameiica To the Older wherever lottud
( ticeting :
Yon have all read of the great stiiko on the
( lould lines of i ail way in the southwest. Its
histoiy is being wiitten day by day. It
makes but little diffoienco now vv nether the
men of the southwest acted wisely or not.
Let us pass that part of the affair over , for
it , too , lias passed into history. Tlio
gcncial executive boaul ot our eider
attempted to settle tlio double and
ie- > tore haimony. Agreements weio made
with them by Jay Oonld , Esq. , but when the
board leached St. Louis Iloxlo would not
ticat with them. Not that alone , but IIP posi
tively lefused to employ Knights of Lnbor ,
whether they had been active in the stiike or
not.
not.It now becomes the part of evciy man and
woman in the order to take up tlio light of
the men of the southwest and asilst them to
the lull extent of their means. They have
been idle lor neaily two months. They have
had a most ttj Ing ordeal to go through and
aie in need of luiuls. It requires
no eloquence or rhetoric to plead
the cause of these suffering people. They ic-
nuiro aid , and it becomes 0111 duty to extend
that aid as quickly as is possible tor us to do
so. Send eveiy dollar yon can spaio to the
general secictiuy-ticasuier , who will at once
torwaul It to the men at St. Louis lor dlstii-
bution. lleincmber the men out tlieio do not
ask for chaiity. They do not ask
at all. It Is your executive board
that makes the appeal in their behalf.
Ho who gives quicklv gives doubly. Act at
once. Anothei aupeal may bo sent to you ,
and wo ask of you to picpaie tor It now.
We must l.e judged by our actions in this
matter. Do not pass resolutions condemning
capital , for wo are not lighting capital.
Do not antagonize the contest we have
hefoions. Lotus malto a iiiend of every
man who has suffered thiough monopoly ,
This balllo against the man who icpiesents
monopoly must be tonght manfully. Watch
his actions everywhere. Keep an eye on tlio
doings ot congiess. Uige the committee
that has been appointed to do its duty fear
lessly. Stiengtlicn their hands. Give them
every aid.
In conclusion , let its again ask that you
send at once every dollar that yon can at
picbdit lalse to uphold the men who aie now
out on the lines of thn southwest system of
the ( ioiild lallwuvs. Do not dclav , and at
the same time make icaily to bilng the whole
power of the order to bear upon the man
who wrecks raihoads , homes , fortunes
and lives In Ins giced lor gold.
Let us detcimino to have It go into history
that tlio men of 188(5 ( struck as giandly for
llueity as the men of 17TO. Tlio men of 177(5 (
broke the pnvver of monarchy nnd dethroned
the king. The power which they wrested
fiom the bands of the king was not so gieat
as that which Is now held by ono man , who ,
tlnougli the corrupt use of money , has
brought mamifactutcis and workmen to
ruin. The power of the king has passed
away. The power of wealth Is passing
away , and it must now bo determined
whether man shall rule or whether illegiti
mate wealth shall rule.

A good deal of comment was made to-day
In lepubllcan elides upon the action of the
senate committee on tlnanco In iclntlon to
nominations of collcctois of Intcinalrevenue ,
as Is disclosed lu a resolution made public by
the senate In o\ccutl\o session yeslerday
afternoon. That icsolntion uncovers a coni-
plelc back-down by the administration liom
tlio position it some time ago assumed in ro
insing Information healing upon removals or
suspensions of icpublican olllee holders. It
declares : "That the letters of the secrctaiy
of the tioasury to the committee on tin a nee ,
dated Maich 10,18bO , or subsequently , in re
lation to the suspension of collectors of
Internal icvomie should bo recel\cd and held
as honest declarations , made in good faith ,
that there arc no charges or papers on Hie In
the department icllcctliiK In any manner
against their moral or olllclal conduct or
chaiacter. "
This icbolutlon was supported by every
democratic as well as lepubllcan member of
Iho committee on finance , and it was under
stood at the time of its adoption thai it would
\eiysalisfacloiy to the administration. In
deed , the dcmocials suppoitcd it Knowing
It was dcsiicd by the administiation and
realMng that it was a gentle way of "letting
down1' the administiation acknowledg
ing , as it so liiinly at lust refused to do , that
these republican Internal icvenue collcctois
were suspended 01 removed on puielv polit
ical grounds. Tills completely Hits the blockade -
ado and probably Indicates the coniso which
the republican senators propose to take in
the future in regard to nominations to lill
vacancies made by removals or suspensions
upon political gidiinds , vU : Whei6 chaiges
arc not piofeiied against the nominee , con-
tirmations will bo made. So the administia-
tion has been soundly thrashed at Its own
game.
A CAUTIOUS nr.MocnAT.
"There is going to be a tcirilie light at the
polls this fall , " said a Virginia member to
your correspondent to-day. "I have been
talking with members of tlio house , and .scna-
tois. too , icpiesentlng all political paitics ,
and there is a dcteiinitiation 'to make the
fur Hy , ' as one republican Dnt it. "
'What will bo the contest ? " I asked.
"Oh , there are to bo some legislatures
elected in California , Indiana and oilier
donbtlul states that will elect United
States senators ; then the contest for tlio
next house of repiescntatlves is to bo fierce.
You see tlio lopublleans are calm and confi
dent of success. They have oiganized their
concessional campaign committee out of
their \ery best nmteiial , and aic , as they
openly fiay , going in to win now. Wo expect
lo have some say In this thing. 'Iho odds
aio largely in out favor. Tlio number ot
dcmociatic concessional districts in the
country exceed the lopubiican ones by twenty
to thlity ; and then wo have the macliineiy of
goveinmcnt , If that is any benefit. "
"Do you really believe your paity will have
the next house'1"
"I do not like to say , " was the evasive an
swer , "because 1 cannot tell what clfect the
Morrison tariff bill will lm\o on the coimti v.
Taiiff bills make and unmake icpicsonta-
ti\cs , you know , moio than any other of-
ficeis. Hut the contest will bo spirited. "
run invnii AND iiAiinon HILT , .
A geat deal of fear Is cnteitallied in con
gressional circles about the fate of the river
and haiboi lull In the house. A large number
of mcmbcis have expressed the belief that the
bill will not bo passed , ami that the longci It
is delajcd the less will bo Its chances of suc
cess. The last congiess icportcd a river and
harbor bill that failed of passage , and ono
of the sessions of tlio piovious congiess
missed"file on a ihcr and haibor bill. The
tioublo with the o mcasiuos , however , was
that they wcie topheavy with Mississippi
ii\cr piovlslons. The object in the picpaia-
( ion of the bill now on the calendar of the
house has been to so dlstilbntc thoappro-
piiatlons or amounts in It as to catch
a general suppoit. blnco tljo dis
aster wrought by the passage
of a liver and haiboi bill by Iho first session
of the Foily-eighth congress , by which , many
believe , tlio dcmociats elected the last con
giess , theio has been a very chary manner
about members In reference to appropiiatlon
bills of this character , and although neatly
all river and harbor bills have been passed by
a log-rolling piocess they have como to
shudder at such a thing. Undoubtedly moio
men ( republicans ) were defeated tor re
election four j ears ago on account of having
voted for a liver and harbor bill of largo and
unwise dimensions than weio evei defeated
at any ono election for any ono cause. This
makes men cautious now.

state things that \\eio not triio'i' The senate
was not directly lesponslblo lor any Incor
rect statements as to scciet sessions. It the
doois weio onuncd the speeches In o\ecntl\o
sessions would bo shorter , Iho proceedings
inoio oidcily and the debates butter and
of a more elevated character. As to the pub
licity of votes , Mi. Logan was pcilcetly will
ing that his constituents and everybody clso
slionld know how lie \oted in executive BCS-
slnns ; nnd If. ho dated ho would lull u\uiy
day what his vote was , but ho ne\oi did.
Mr. Hoar asked Mr. Logan \\hcther his
logic would not ico.ulio the uiooceodlugs ol a
committee also to be open to the public.
Mr. Logan leplled : "Not at all. But why
should not the committee. meetings bo open
to the public , itj anybody warned them
to be ? "
Mi. Hoar said that baldly any proceedings
were of moro Impoitiincuorol public Inteiest
than the proceedings of the committee on
ways and means ot the house of representa
tives , 01 the tlnanco committee of tlm senate ,
and especially Impoilant wcio the proceed
ings ot Iho onfeionce committees on ques
tions of tuvonne. Mr. Hoar asked Mi. Logan
vvhcthci ho would have the pioceedlngs o
such committees open to the public.
Mr. Logan had known the astuteness of the
senator 1 1 om Massachusetts ( Hani ) In at
tempts to throw the people oil the track In
debate wheiicvci n pionosltlon was made
which did not ngico vvith Ills notion. 13ut
the senate was not discussing on the ques

people woie not demanding open committee
meetings , but they wcio demanding open
doois lor the pioceedlngs ol the senate , and
the doois will bo opened. Mr. Logan
pointedly added : "Mark what I tell you , and
