NEW YORK , July 13. The first cyclone In
many jears struck New York this afternoon
and resulted fatally In ono Instance , besides
wrecking a large amount of valuable prop
erty. The c ) clone desccndeJ upon the upper
part of H.ist New York , knots n as Cypress
hills , at 4 30 , continued on Its way to the
loner plains district , and next traveled to
Woodliaven. The cloud was first seen going
over Cyprcts hills. It was funnel-shaped am
hung very low to the ground. At the upper
end was a red spot that appeareJ more like
an Incandescent light than anything else. The
cyclone swept over the city cemetery , wreck
ing hanlsomo nnd coitly monuments It tore
down trees for about 200 feet , and tl-cn turneJ
Into Jamaica avenue at Crescent street , and
went up Jama'ca avenue for about half a mile
Trees were torn down nnd telephone and
trolley wires dcmolls.hel Right In the mld-
dlo of the wreckage six cars were caught
They belonged to the Ilrookl > n & Suburban
railroad , and were struck when In front of
the Stewart home. The cars were filled with
passengers and there was great excitement
Half a dozen persons were slightly Injured.
The oclono wrecked thirty homes ut
Woodhaven , nnd a very large school house
There were twenty residents of Woodliaven
hit by vailous objects which were carrloa
through the air. Chimneys sailed through
the air as though they were no heavier than
feathers At Woodliaven a woman was In
an outhouse. The house was picked up nnd
carried by the storm for more than a block ,
Finally the woman was landed on one side o
the street and the house on the other. The
woman had a miraculous escape from serlou >
Injury , receiving only a slight cut on the
forehead.
Mrs Louisa Kotrequln of Third avenue ,
near Kockaway , was killed She stood In th
doorway of her house when a Hying beam
struck her on the head crushing her skull
and killing her Instantly. The fire depart
ment and the pollco were callcJ to the scene
but the house was a complete wreck.
The cable nnd trolley cars In Harlem were
blocked for hours by fallen trees and tele
graph poles. Several of the big thorough
fares were made Impassible for traffic , owing
to the network of fallen wires and other
obstructions that had been made by the wind
and hall. The florists on the west side of
the city and In the annexed district were the
greatest sufferers , losing nearly all their
growing plants and their conservatories being
badly wrecked.
CHERRY HILL , WIPED OUT.
HACKENSACK , N. J , July 13 A terrific
storm swept over this section this afternoon
doing great dnmnge. At Cherry Hill , a small
village a few miles from here. It developed
cyclonic fury , attended by the demolition of
the village and a number or deaths. Cherr }
Hill received the full sweep of the wind and
within a mlnuto aftei the storm broke
twenty-seven houses , nearly the entire num
ber In the village , were wrecked The cyclone
made a clean path through the center of the
place , carrying everything before It. Houses
were unroofed and thrown down. Trees
were uprooted nnd the crops In the fields
leveled to the ground. At the present time
It Is known that five were killed , and the
Injured are numbered by the score , many , It
Is believed , fatally.
The dead are :
CONRAD KREI DERM ANN. hotel keeper
THREE UNKNOWN LAUGHERS.
A CHILD OK WILLIAM AHRENS.
The storm came from the northwest , her
alded by great banks of clouds and a stirring
breeze. The atmosphere was warm for a
J- time , and then cold , and then after a second
rush of warmth came the cyclone , carrying
death and destruction In Its course. The
storm center was about 300 feet In width and
the strip over which It passed Is a mass of
ruin. Not a building was spared. Those
that were not completely demolished were
unroofed or moved from their foundations
Great amounts of wreckage were carried
through the air by the gale , adding to the
destruction. The depot , standing between
the tracks of the New York & New Jcrsej
railroad , was demolished The wind first
took the roof and landed It 100 feet away
Then the wall fell. The station agent was
taken from the ruins later , badly Injured The
freight depot was also wrecked and the big
platform carried away.
\VENT BACK FOR HIS MONEY.
Opposite- the depot was the hotel of the vil
lage. Kept by Conrad Dorman In the hotel
at tin time , besides the proprietor , were his
wife and three children. Just as the storm
broke he hurried them Into the street , fearIng -
Ing the building was unsafe. Then ha re
turned to secure some money and had
re-ached the door to the street when the
whirlwind struck him. He was caught
up and hurled fifteen or twenty feet to the
ground As be lay there the building top
pled over on him , crushing him to death
One of his bojs was Injured by the falling
timbers.
The Infant of the Ahrens family was lying
In a crib when the crash came. The house *
was unroofed nnd a flying stick struck the
child In the head , tearing off ona of the
cars as clean as though severed by a sur
geon's knife and causing death. When the
husband , who Is a New York business man ,
returned the sun was shining brightly and
his wlfo was sitting amid the ruins with the
body of her dead child In her arms.
Two of the Polish laborers who were
killed took shelter In a barn , which was
carried away by the storm. Half an hour
later the mangled bodies were dragged from
the ruins. The thlid Polo killed met his
fate * In a slmlllar way. Alexander Jones ,
the village blacksmith , was burled beneath
the timbers of his shop. He was taken out
badly bruised and sent to the hospital. It
Is not thought he will recover. His house ,
which was located near his shop , was carried
along the ground until It struck a tree , when
It went to pieces Edward C. Chltnock was
seriously , If not fatally , Injured by the fall
of his barn ,
The cyclone went through the valley
rapidly and ten minutes after the first gust
of wind gave Indication of the coming storm
the sun was shining. Those who had n
chance to escape from Its fury fled to the
fields and huddled together there under the
terrific storm of hall.
At the hamlet of Falrmount , n few miles
from Cherry Hill , elx houses were blown
down and n dozen persons .Injured. As
yet no fatalities have been reported. The
storm did no great damage In Hackensack.
The news of the disaster nt Cherry Hill wns
brought hero nnd all the available phjslclans
In town started at once for the scene. Gov
ernor Wertz has been asked to send tents to
the homeless.
The storm swept from Cherry Hill to
AmlerclltTe. There Its effects were not so
disastrous , for It merely grazed the village.
Many houses were unroofed and trees torn
up. Somorsvllle felt n corner of It nnd the
storm swept through the Rockaway valley ,
stripping the fruit trees. The damage done
In that section cannot bo estimated. In
Somerset county the grain crop Is flattened
and will probably prove a total loss. Plainfield -
field caught n portion of the storm at 3 16.
Skylights , conservatories and green houses
were battered In by the hall. The damage
In Plalnfield will amount to thousands of
dollars.
ONE KILLED AT UNION COURSE.
WOODHAVEN. L. I. , July 13. Wood-
haven and Union Course suffered almost as
much as did Cherry Hill , N. J. Hou es
were unroofed and blown down. Only one
fatality so far has been reported and sixteen
are Injured. The storm at these points was
like that of Ch-rry HIM , a whirlwind. Houses
were blown down and trees uprooted. The
tract over which It swept was a mile long by
an eighth of u mile wide
Tin dwelling * of Henry Wells and William
Smith on Shaw avenue , Union Course , were
lifted from their foundations and turned
completely over. Harry Smith's hotel at
Union Course station wai badly wrecked ,
Union Course school house , a brick building ,
was blown down. The wagon and blacksmith
chop of Frank Shlfir on the Rorkaway road
was demolished and twenty wagoni In the
shop were destroyed. MrtfT Jennie Petrlquan ,
who lived at Union Courto with her husband
nnd mother , left her house just as the storm
swept along. The air was full ot flying de
bris and she was struck on the head by a' ]
Wfter , Her neck was broken and EDO died
t *
Instantly , Tony Kolb nas running toward his
homo when flying d brig struck him ,
knocked him over and broke his right arm ,
left leg : and produced Internal Injuries. He
will probably die.
Two three-story frame dwellings owned by
John Schlfller and a two-story house and
tore owned by John Johnson on the nock-
way road were leveled. Twenty-six dwell-
igs were completely wrecked. Most of them
ere occupied by poor people. The residence
f William Hlnes was damaged and a store
as upset. The house caught fire and was
urned to the ground.

of Jetty extension as yet have been noticed
upon the bar depth and none Is expected
until the work shall have been extc'ilrd some

now eighteen feet of water. As the Jetty

Increased scour will occur , calling for In

NEW YORK , July 13. James McNaught
of the Northern Pacific , who has just re
turned from a 'rip through the northwest ,
finds that the mineral and agricultural pro
ductions of this year promise to exceed In
value those of any recent year. The earn
ings of the Northern Pacific for the last fis
cal year , he says , were 20 per cent bettei
than , they were for the fiscal year ending
Juno 30 , 1891 , and for the fiscal year ending
Juno 30 , 1896 , will bo 20 per cent better
than the last year. Mr. McNaught expressed
some annoyance at the publication alleged
to have been made In his authority that the
second , third and consolidated mortgage bonds
of the Northern Pacific were Illegally Issued
and consequently Invalid. "I have , " said he ,
"never entertained or expressed any such
opinion. I have no doubt whatever that all
of the Northern Pacific outstanding mortgage
bonds were legally Issued and are valid Hens
upon the company's property "

Italians have since been conducted over the

other Italian officers visited Windsor castle
today < , where they were recelveu by the
' queen.
' The newspapers naturally are printing nr-
tlc.cs dally of "Our Allies , the Italians , ' and
I they arc making the usual complimentary
| references to them ,
Iho social Jtafon lias been brought to a
premature end. The elite of the aristocracy
has been at Henley for three uays this week ,
but the bulk of the politicians have packed
their trunks and gone Into the country. The
effect of the dissolution of Parliament Is
strikingly seen In IIdo Park. In Its fash
ionable promenades few men of distinction
are to be seen , the gatherings of people there
being almost entirely composed of women.
IN THE MIDST OF A CAMPAIGN.
Tilt- soldiers of the different political forces
are already In the midst of the light and are
making audressts nightly. As evidence ot the
activity of the leaders of thefru > It may be
mentioned that SirS illlam Vcrnon Hurcourt ,
who was chancellor of the exchequer In the
Rosebery cabinet , Is booked to address three
different meetings In Dcrbshire on Monday.
The most tensatlonal feature of the cam
paign Is t'nc chaige which Mr. Healy made
against the Irish parliamentary party at the
national convention at Omagh at Tyrone last
Wednesday. The convention was called to
choose candidates for the election of T } rene
" and I ! Mr. Hcaly , amid great excitement , uc-
| tused Mr. John Dillon of selling Tyrcne to
the EnglUh party. As special J cabled to
the Associated press , Mr lieu y read u letter
from Mr. Kdward Ulake to Privy Councillor
Dlckeon , Informing him that the nationalist
federation would be unable In future to sub
sidize Noith and South Tyrcne or North and
South Londonderry , which he asked should ba
subsidized henceforth In the sum of 1200
yearly by liberals. The then government
whip , Thomas Ellis , consented to this on the
understanding that scats were to be consid
ered liberal and not home rule scats. Nat
urally ' the reading of this letter spread con
sternation among the delegates , who shouttd
"So.d ! sold ! " When Mr. Dillon finally suc
ceeded In making himself heard he said
"What you state Is an Infamous nnd calum
nious lie. You are a traitor. You read a prl
vate letter In public. " This caused further
uproar and finally the non-sectarian candl
dates were adopted by the convention.
The affair has not only caused great com
motion and considerable Irritation In the ranks
of the McCarthyltes , but It has spread con
sternation among the liberals , as the conservatives
vatives Immediately seized upon the Inci
dent and are making use of It during the
present campaign for all It Is worth.
The national leaders Instantly grasped the
danger of the affair and Messrs. McCarthj
and Illakc both telegraphed emphatic denials
of the charge. Mr. McCarthy , who promised
to make a full statement on the subject ,
strongly condemned the making of wliat he
classed as baseless charges at such a crisis ,
and Mr. Ulake , who was presiding at the con
vention at Cork , dealt with the matter
at length , declaring the matter had not a
particle of foundation In truth. But he ad
ded , In explanation , that Mr. Bills , the lib
eral whip , was applied to to bear the ex
penses of Uie registration work of the four
seats representing North nnd South Tyrone
and North and South Londonderry , which ex
pense amounts to 20Q eich annually Till'
money , however. It was further explained
was not to pass through the hands of the na
tionalists.
NATIONALISTS NOT SATISFIED.
Mr. Ellis gave much the same version cf
the affair , but of course the conservative
newspapers declare that these are lame ex
planations. The Times , for Instance , re
marks : "It does not matter whether the
money promised was nominally to go for
registration purposes or otherwise. In anj
case It relieved the Impoverished treasurj
of the federation and permitted so much
hard cash to be diverted to another destina
tion. The bargain was simple. The radlca
whips found the money and the members of
the nationalist party , under orders from the
Parnojllte wire pullers , were to find the
votes. The end of the Incident Is not yc' '
come and the liberals rightly regard the mat
ter seriously when , as Mr. Ellis declares , the
lories are scattering leaflets through the
country In which they hint that the payment
for Irish reals was not In money taken from
the party fund but drawn from the natlona
exchequer In order to enable lazy Irishmen to
live In luxury. "
Also according to the Times It Is stated
that four Reman Catholic archbishops were
appealed to by the McCarthyltes to hold a
conference and arbitrate In the dispute
among Irishmen and that Arhblshop Croke o
Cassell replied that It was Inconvenient foi
him to act. In addition , Archbishop Walsli
of Dublin Is said to have emphatically re
fused to sit In such a conference , as he haJ
offered several times to mediate and vva :
only snubbed for his pains. Finally U li
stated that Archbishop Togue of Armagh , thi
primate of all Ireland and Archbishop Tuam
were willing to act , but In view of the re
piles of Archbishops Croke and Walsli th
McCarthylte party abandonel the project.
The queen Is taking a keen Interest In the
elections and will be supplied with , all tli
results over a special wire run to Wlndso
castle from London.
NEW WOMAN FINDS LITTLE FAVOR.
According to Vanity Fair , the queen ha
expressed a strong opinion regarding the so
called "new woman , " and especially as
the style of her dress. The queen , It I :
added , Is strongly opposed to the "advance
novel , " and remarked recently to one cf he
entourage that It was a great public th a
was In a mood to buy such books , and tha
If there were no purchasing public , the pen
would cease to write such matter.
Much chagrin was caused at Southampto
by the report that the United States cruise
Columbia was seriously strained when sh
was placed In dry deck there for the pur
pose of cleaning and painting her. Th
vague statements made gave the Idea tha
the affair was greatly due to the negllgenc
of the management of the dock and thl
Impression has not been dispelled.

Much comment has been expected In ( heat
rlcal circles by the non-return of Mrs. Patrlc
Campbell to the stage of the Haymarket
The reason given for his disappearance fron

VICTORIA , July 13. The steamer Mlov.er.i
arrived from Australia and Hawaii this after
noon. The literary exercises at Honolulu
on July 4 were the scene of n remarkable
ncldent. Joseph Cook of Boston was In
vited to speak and entered upon a personal
criticism of President Cleveland , charging
him with misrepresenting Hawaii and Ha
ts allan affairs. He was Interrupted by Mlnls-
er Willis , who presided , and after a sharp
cross flro of charge and retort left the hall
amid silence. His action Is looked upon as
ndiscreet. Independence
Park pavilion was
nore than crowded for the literary exercises ,
scheduled for 11 o'clock , with Mr. Willis ,
the American minister , presiding. He wua
presented by George W. Smith , chairman
of the general committee. This was at 11 30
There was a wait for President Dole. When
lie entered with Mrs. Dole the audience rose
and cheered.
The steamship Mlowera was held to allow
Joseph Cook to address the meeting. In
opening Mr , Willis gracefully gave utterance
to patriotic sentiments and was applauded
An Invocation was offeied by Rev. D. P
Blernle. All Joined in singing , the American
choir leading. In complimentary terms Mr
Willis Introduced Mr. Cook , who
had for his subject "The Repub
lics of the Tropics. " He said nothing of the
Fourth of July. He congratulated all that
there was no color or slaverj line here. Tli3
speaker then went Into an oration on bouth-
ern republics as upheld by what he called
northern principles. Coming quickly to Ha
waii , Mr. Cook entered upon almost a direct
criticism of the Cleveland administration , ar
raigning It for
misrepresentations and sayIng -
Ing that he was making some corrections.
Hero Mr. Willis protested on the ground
that the occasion was not one for partisan
speech. He was greeted with storms of ap

Mr Cook , considerably confused , asked for
a bill of particulars , declaring he was not ac
customed to wearing a 'straight jacket or
gag.
gag.Mr
Mr Willis replied that the contracted senti
ment from a Boston environment was not
broad enough for an American celebration In
Hawaii.
Mr. Cook said Boston had a good deal to
do with achieving American Independence.
Mr. Willis tald this was granted , and that
all were proud of It. '
The lecturer quickly concluded his re
marks on annexation. He bade goodby to
Minister Willis nnd Dr. MacArthur nnd left
the hall amidst silence , clearly mad through
and through. The exchange of words created
tremendous excitement amongl those present
and when the Mlowera sailed It was the one
topic of conversation. After the exercises
many citizens advanced to r-haka hands with
the American minister. He was given an
ovation. The levee lasted over half an hour
Some at first thought there was rather
too much feeling shown by the audience
against Cook , but he had Invited the re
buke both from the American minister and
those assembled. Mr. Cook was regarded
as very egotistical. He raised himself to hl >
highest pinnacle and did not speak of the
Fourth of July at all , but launched Into an
Htgument on the Hawaiian question and an
nrralgnment of Mr. Cleveland's , administra
tion.

The oration of the day was delivered b >
Mr. Dole It was an able speech , full of
genuine Americanism. One sentiment was
This Is the great day set apart for noble ,
purposes than twisting the British lion's

day of thanksgiving. It Is memorial day
Its chief end Is to keep warm In our hearts

LOUISVILLE , July 13. As a result of the
conference held jesterday between the state
central committee , the democratic nominees
for state offices and prominent democrats
from all parts of the state , a strong demo
cratic campaign committee was orgintzed by
the state committee of last } ear. The campaign
will be an aggressive ode and It will bo
fought out squarely on the platform laid
down by the democratic state convention.
The conference lasted until 11 o clock this
morning. The discussion that took place pre
sented n great variety of opinions as to the
proper policy to be pursued In the campaign.
There was no encouragement for the sugges
tion to keep the currency question out of the
campaign. The originators of that plan had
nothing to say for It anJ It received little
defense from any other quarter. Sound
money men spoke resolutely against any at
tempt to put a false construction on the
money ilank In the platform. Senator
Blackburn declared that he proposed to stand
on the platform and to give It his own con
structlon. which was that It rcalllrms only
the platform of 1802.
At an Informal meeting of the campaign
committee the secretary was directed to pro
pose to the republican campaign committee
a Joint debate between the candidates for
governor. Headquarters will be opcncJ at
once and the most thorough canvass will be
begun.
The result of the democratic conference
held here last night Is now generally under
stood to bo that there are to be no restric
tions Imposed upon campaign speakers , other
than such support of the plat fur in as their
competences and judgment dictate. Black
burn declares that It Is a victory for free
speech and today nt Winchester made a
speech denouncing Carlisle's views and the
gold standard papers , and advocating free
coinage at 1C to 1 , free trade and the aboli
tion of national banks. Those who have *
hcictofore favored the gold standard claim
that the platform meins a full endorsement
of the policy of Cleveland and Carlisle and
they will so construe It on the stump The
situation Is now just as It was before the
convention , except that the endorsement of
Cleveland and Carlisle Is claimed by the
sound money men to be an endorsement of
their Interpretation of the Chicago platform
Both factions offered to a(11 ( nil the Chicago
platform , but Blackburn opposed the endorse
ment of the administration.

SIOUX FALLS , S D , July 13 ( Spechl )
Cattl-men In the city report that already
the shipment of cattle has begun and that It
will rapidly Increase from now on. This Is
something unusual , as cattle shipments gen
erally begin a good deal later In the season
The reason for the early shipments is , ac
cording to the cattlemen , for two causes ,
the good prices for beef and the extra qual
ity of the beef from the lunges this jcar.
Ths plentiful rains have kept the range
glass sweet and nutritious and the cattle
have thrived wonderfully well upon it. The
shipments from the ranges of South Dakota ,
which usually run up to from $ li ! 000.000 to
$25,000,000 annually , will bo largely Increased
this season.

the honor of making the first arrest. Early
this morning he gathered In Gus Bruckman ,

burg for fighting. The bciap occurred on

Bruckman claims Sonburg struck his wife
and that ho thereupon started In to protect
her. Sonburg , on the other hand , bays that
the first Intimation IIP had that a scrap
was on was when he received a hot tap In
the ear from Brnckman's fist. Both men
bear the marks of the encounter.

NEW YORK. July 13. Moses A. Qunst.
ono of San Francisco's police commissioners ,
has been stopping In this city for the past
few dajs. Since his arrival here Mr. Gunst
states that he has been so actively engagctl
In business affairs that he has had but Uttlo
tlmo to devote to another matter In which ho
naturally takes a deep Interest , namely , pollco
affairs.
Bcvond receiving an Invitation to sit with
the police commissioners nt the regular trial' ,
an occasional chat with an ofilcer or patrol
man , and such observations ot the pollco
force as he could make In his walks about
town , Mr. Gunst said that he dune nothing ;
toward his plan of thoroughly Inspecting the
department as It Is at present.
"From what talk I hnvo had with men ot
the force. " Mr. Gunst said , "I should judge
that the New York police forceIs much de
moralized. Men with whom 1 have talked ,
and who hnvo reputations as good olllccrs ,
arc kept on the anxious seat continually as
a result of the methods of the present admin
istration. There seems to bo a little bright
ening ot the outlook , for I understand In a
short whllo there promises to bo a settlement
of affairs In regard to the final disposition of
captains and other olllccrs.
"Tho personnel of the force here Is better
than In any cltj between here and Sun Fran-
cUco. The patrolmen are n better dressed ,
and more Intelligent looking set of men than
In any of the large cities 01' the country. It
Is my Intention In u few d.ijs to make a
thorough Inspection of the force throughout
Its various departments. "
Ml. Gunst. In reply to a question as to his
opinion on the present action of the pollco
board In closing the liquor saloons on Sun
day , declared that ho thought It was very
harmful , ami In his opinion on last Sundays
there was more Intoxication noticeable In this
city than there would lia in San Francisco ,
where all the saloons are wide open and
where "side cloors" arc unknown. Ho stated ,
thnt the result of the action of the New York
pollco board must naturally end In the repeal
of what have troven to be very obnoxious
laws , and Incidentally remarked that next
fall would , without a doubt , witness the re
turn of Tammany to power In New York City.
