    o THE OMAHA DAILY /WEDNESDAY , JULV 20 , 1800.
back to 84. Had U not been that the slight
est change Is registered In Ink , this phe
nomenon would not have been noticed ,
The sudden change In a large extent
caused n terrible electric display , that con
tinued without Intermission until midnight.
Up to 9 o'clock the rainfall was 1.42 Inches ,
ftnd as the ground Is thoroughly soaked all
of It will reach the rivers and the flood of
Saturday will probably be repeated.
The approach of the storm was preceded
by black clouds that turned daylight Into
darkness. There was A constant roll of
terrifying thunder and Incessant flashes of
vivid lightning that gave warning to pe
destrians to seek places of safety. The wind
rose to a gale as the rain began to fall , and
then the hurricane came on with a roar ,
driving the rain In solid sheets before It.
In an Instant the streets In many parts .of
the city were filled with ( lying branches of
trees , tin roofa were lifted from houses and
sent whirling o.tr chimney top * , knocking
them down ll'se tenpins , signs anil fences
nnd trees fell , crushing out the llvrs ot two
men and Injuring othors. For a little over
B minute the hurricane blew at the rate of
thirty miles an hour , and then dropped to
twenty-four miles for five minutes , and then
ceased , The thunder nnd lightning kept up
n terrifying display , while the rain con
tinued to pour down for an hour.
STOllM BREAKS AFRESH.
After an hour of low , muttering thunder
nnd sheet lightning the storm broke out
again , but the force of It seemed to be In
the country districts back of the South side
hills , and reports coming In at a Into hour
contained the Information Hint much
damage had been done by the lightning and
an exceptionally heavy downpour of rain.
The storm crossed Silver lake , and the
dam , unable to stand Uic flood , gave way ,
turning Finloy's hollow Into a raging tor
rent nnd swelling Ncglcy's run Into a river
until It emptied Into the Allegheny near the
Brilliant pumping station.
At Braddock Imll added to the damage ,
and when the hurricane reached Turtle
creek It assumed the awful proportions of a
tornado , doing untold damage. In the oil
fields derricks wcru blown down , particu
larly In O'Hnra township. Scwlckley , Cora-
opolls , Belleviio and McKcca Rocks suffered
severely. In Mlllvalo and Sharpsburg hall
caused havoc and glaziers will be busy for
some days.
Colonel Frank Rldgoway , the local fore
cast official , was nt his desk when the first
storm cloud darkened the nky. Ho said last
night ho had never seen a more terrific
tornada formation In the clouds nnd the fact
that the city was not visited with a tornado
worse than that which caused the St. Louis
horror Is duo to the Intervening hills. The
circular movement of the wind was broken
In the lower strata , or else there would
have been a path plowed through the two
cities several blocks wide.
In the evening another storm swept over
the city , during which torrents of rain fell
nnd the wind blew a gale , but no serious
damage resulted. From 8 o'clock till mid
night .75 of on Inch of rain fell , making a
total of 1.42 Inches. The storm died in long ,
continued rumbling that rolled through the
heavens with the noise of distant cannonad
ing , the lightning meanwhile illuminating
the flky with Incessant flashes of bluish
light. It was not until midnight that the
storm ceased this loud murmuring.
MUCH DAMAGE TO PROPERTY.
The damage to property was general and
various. The wind unroofed dozens ot
houses , while others were damaged by the
water washing their foundations away. Still
others were struck by lightning. The trac
tion lines , as usual , were compelled to sus
pend operations. Great heaps of dirt and
debris from the previous floods piled near
the tracks were again washed down , nnd
the only lines which escaped serious delays
were those on the south side. In the Penn
sylvania avenue mill district , twenty-five
largo sraolte and draft stacks were blown
down , buildings were unroofed , trees were
uprooted and scarcely n house In the dis
trict passed through the storm Intact.
Butlerest got a repetition of the storm of
July 15 , and the persons who suffered prop
erty loss on that occasion had the same
experience yesterday. The east end got its
first hard touches of the year. Trees i < nd
telegraph "poles went down under the wind
with fences , and outbuildings were destroyed
nnd largo buildings suffered the loss of roofs
and windows.
Bnishtpn and Wllklnsburg suffered to n
considerable extent , but not so badly as the
district near the rivers. The Second ave
nue. Fifth avenue and Hill districts got the
full fury ot the storm and the damage is
general and widespread. Windows , trees
and small structures were destroyed. Many
houses were unroofed nnd it Is remarkable
that there were not more persons seriously
Injured.
The telegraph and telephone systems of
the two cIVIes were wrecked to a greater
or less extent , but by hard work during
the night they have bocn put In fair shape
again. The C. D. & P. telegraph com
pany suffered greatly. Almost half the
telephone wires In Allegheny county were
out of order last night nnd strenuous efforts
nro being made lo repair the damage. At
9 o'clock this morning it was estimated that
700 miles were still out of order. The
Western Union and Postal Telegraph com
panies Buffered much damage , but by hard
work enough lines were kfpt open to handle
pressing business. The electric light and
street railway lines were badly - disorganized
ized by the wind and were crossed nnd
ro-croascd with other lines .until linemen
got them straightened out.
All the railroads suffered heavily from
landslides , but the lines nre all open and
trains aio running with very little delay.
The Chartlors railroad Is lilockcd at Can-
nonsburg by the washing away of a bridge ,
nnd the Plttsburg , Virginia ft Charleston
road Is Impassable beyond Monongahela
City , The southwestern branch of the Penn
sylvania road is also tied up by washouts
nnd slides , but the officials hope to have
trains running within a few hours ,
William Rose , a Swedish gardener aged
fiO years , was drowned near Boston , Pa. , al
C o'clock thla morning while attempting to
ford Long Run , His body wns recovered
In the Ohio river three hours later at Avalon
twenty-nine miles from Boston.

DE3 MOINRS , July 23. ( Special Tele
gram. ) A sensational story Is printed In nn
afternoon paper hrrc that the gold demo
crats arc making n still hunt to capture the
lemocratlc state convention at Ottumwa ,
August 12. U U stated that F , W. Lehman
of St. Louis , n 'ormer leader of the democ
racy , who has been here several days , was
it-ought back to the state to assist In car
rying out the plan. The design Is reported
.o IK ; to make a still hunt In every county
n the state , getting the gold men out un
expectedly and controlling the caucuses.
Then at Ottumwa the plan will be to pre
vent the carrying out of any plan for fusion
on the democratic and populist electoral
ticket , by a division of the electors be-
.ween Sowall end Watson , as has been pro-
losed by the silver democrats and popu-
Ists.
The silver men have already secured a con
siderable number of county delegations , hav
ing pledged them at the time the delegates
were chosen to the Dubuque convention In
May. Hut they have not a control -of the
convention as yet , by a large number. Part
of the story Is that A. B. Cummins , repub
lican ndtlonal commlttceman , is advlflng
with the gold democrats , and helping them
with their scheme.

"Just how far state pride will go toward
bolstering up the sliver movement In Ne
braska , now that one of her adopted sons
has been nominated by one of the great
parties for president , Is one of those ques
tions that Is being very much speculated
upon In my state , " said Francis C.
Qrablo of Omaha , to a reporter 'of the Phil
adelphia Press last week. Mr. Grablo Is one
of Omaha's enterprising business men and
Is associated with a number of eminent
Phlladelphlans In western enterprises.
"My own opinion is , " continued Mr.
Grablo , "that Nebraska will provo herself
loyal to republican principles sound money
and protection to American Industries. Our
bankers , merchants , railroad officials , manu-
factureis In f.ict , business men of every
degree heartily favor the declarations made
on the currency question at St. Louis. The
tioublo In Nebraska Is that the republicans
of the state have allowed the advocates of
the free and unlimited coinage of silver to
have their sweet will too long. They should
have been met with the arguments that wo
muit now use , and v.hlch If pressed home
must convince those that are misguided
that they are pursuing phantoms.
'It is not to bo denied that free coinage
has secured something of a foothold
among the farmers of Nebraska. Our
farmers are in the main , however , Intelli
gent , and , although perhaps bejogged at
the present by the sophistry and alluring
promises of the free coinage orators , can
soon be made to understand In which
direction their Interests lie. The ablest
men of both parties in Nebraska are against
the financial declarations made at Chicago ,
and for the time being will probably labor
together to attain a common object , the
defeat of Mr. Bryan.
'Passing beyond Nebraska into Colorado
and you at once realize a total change of
sentiment. Denver Is Colorado and Colorado
is Denver. It Is almost worth a man's life
to wear a McKlnley badge on the streets
of Denver. I was in Denver just one week
ago. A friend of mine who was wearing a
McKlnley badge on the street was hooted
at , hissed and jeered by the mob. Colorado
rado seems to be one vast frco coinage camp.
In a few weeks wo shall better be able
In Nebraska to tell where we stand. The
campaign will then be on. Wo shall have a
house to house canvass and it will not take
very long for us to ascertain just where
our own weakness lies as well as the weak
spots In the lines of the enemy. United
States Senator Thurston will practically con
duct the campaign and his magnetic in
fluence will be felt from one end of the
state to the other. "

flu- Outlook In Jllx DlNlrlet.
Congressman W. E. Andrews of the Fifth
district is In the city and In tipeaklng of
the- condition of affairs political up in his
district last night said that judging from
his observation of a considerable portion
of the district which ho had visited , and
from other portions from which he had re
ports , which -ho had every reason to be
lieve were reliable , the prospects of the
party were very promising. "If the re
mainder of the state will do as well for
McKlnloy and the state ticket as the Fifth ,
there can bo no question of the republicans
carrying the state.
Mr. Andrews also considers his own
chances to be good , and is confident of elec
tion. "The conventions of the democrats
and populists have not been held yet , but
have been called. The democratic conven
tion will meet August 13 and the populist
convention on the 18th of the same month.
It looks somewhat from that as though the
democrats proposed to put up a candidate
ahead of the populists and try to force an
endorsement of their man by the latter.
Whether thn populists will consent to this
remains to be seen. "

TOPEKA , July 28. John W. Breidenthal ,
chairman of the populist state central com
mittee , does not approve of the plan effusion
fusion In Kansas as suggested by ex-Con
gressman W. A. Harris and endorsed by ex-
Senator John Martin that Is , for the democrats -
crats to name the electors and the populists
to namu the state officers. In conversation
with a reporter Mr. Broldenthal expressed
surprise that Colonel Harris and other popu
list leaders had favored the arranccment
referred to and announced his intention of
using his Influence for the selection of Bryan
and Watson electors at Abilene on August D ,
"The populists of Kansas , " ho said , "havo
but one course to pursue , and that Is to
stand by the .action of the party at St.
Louis.To do anything else would be bad
faith , to say the least. "
Asked what ho thought about fusion on
candidates for state ofilcers Mr. Breidenthal
said that ho was in favor of dividing the
ticket with the democrats and believed that
a conference committee could make the
necessary arrangements without trouble.
The stand taken by Breidenthal makes a
fight at the Ablleno convention probable.

KANSAS CITY , July 28 , The first steps

ginning In this part of Missouri of an

ST. LOUIS , July 23. A Washington spe
cial to the Globe-Democrat says : On his
way west , after his notification In Madison
Square gaiden , New York , of his nomina
tion by the democratic party , William Jen
nings Bryan is to come to Washington.
That Is the present program. Why Mr.
Bryan should desire to speak In Washing
ton , where thcro are no votes to be won , Is
R puzzle to many. The solution lies In Mr.
Bryan's propensity for theatrics. His do-
lro that ho be notified In Now York , In
stead of at his home , as lias been the time-
honored custom , was but his gratification ot
his disposition for the spectacular. He has
evidently made up his mind to make hla
campaign from beginning to end dazzling
by reason of scenic effects ,
Senator Jones of Arkansas Is now In con
sultation with Bryan In icgard lo the lot-
ter's npccch of acceptance. Bryan Intends
to make It one of the greatest efforts of his
life , and the reason ho chose Madison Square
garden as the place of Us delivery was that
ho might bo able to work all the stage ef
fects which heightened the Impression of
his oration at Chicago.
After his tour of New York he will come
lo Washington solely for the great adver
tising he will get out of a speech at the
capital. A candidate for the presidency
orating on the great plaza In front of the
cnpilol , or In Hie while lot , In the shadow
of the white house , will bo n novelty. Mr.
Bryan appreciates this. Ho understands the
vnltio of what In theatrical parlance are
known as "properties. " The background fur-
nlRhcd by the national capttol or the white
house will add splendor to his performance.
That Is why one of his "great efforts" Is to
bo made In Washington.

DETHOIT , Mich. , July 28. The democratic
state central committee met this afteinoon
and declined to accept the resignation of Us
chairman , Elliott G. Stevenson , and called
the state nominating convention to be held
at Bay City on August 25. Although Chair
man Stevenson , who Is the law partner of
Don M. Dickinson , has been a radical advo
cate of the gold standard policy and still
emphatically deprecates what he terms the
outrage of unseating some of the Michigan
gold standard delegates at the Chicago con
vention , he accepts the platform and candi
dates decreed by the national convention and
declares that being a democrat be will do
his whole duty In waging n vigorous cam
paign In Michigan for the success of the
party's nominees and its declared policies.
It Is arranged that the populist and the
new union silver party conventions will be
held In Bay City on the same day as the
democratic convention and It Is expected
that a fusion of the three parties on one
ticket will be accomplished. This Is con
sidered to be a necessity by the silver men ,
as a state law enacted by the last ( repub
lican ) legislature required that the namp'of
any candidate cannot appear on more than
ono ticket.
The opposition to retaining Chairman
Stevenson was not especially strenuous In
the meeting , although some prominent free
silver men on the outside declared that
silver men who voted for Stevenson were
misrepresenting their constituents. Mr.
Stevenson had previously expressed his will
ingness to resign In favor of W. U. Burt
of Saglnnw or Fred A. Baker of Detroit.
Both the latter are prominent silver leaders.

Nearly all the members were present , and

'
the day with the'm. The committee is plan
ning to do things on a much larger scale
than ever was known In Iowa. Almost the
entire fifth floor ot the big Equitable , the
large-it office block In the city , has been
rented , and also a large banking room on
the first floor , which will be the reception
room. The committee determined to go into
the brass band and singing business with
especial vigor. The feeling in that the sil
ver men nre going to make it n pyrotechnical -

licans do not propose to be behind in their
efforts to arouse enthusiasm. A large num
ber of contracts with bands and singers are
approved. The plans of Mr. Treynor for se
curing a largo number of prominent speak
ers ifrom without , as well as within the
state , were approved , and although the
names are not given out , the committee Is
negotiating to secure Use best list of
speakers ever brought Into the state. Llter-

INDIANAPOLIS. July 28. The populists
at their convention held hero today ad
hered to the straight middle-oMho-road
policy ot nominating a full state ticket.
The straight-out populists numbered two to
one , and they used their power freely , turn
ing down every measure that seemed In
the nature of an endorsement of the demo
cratic national ticket. A full state ticket
was put up , headed by Thomas Wadsworth
of Raglesville for governor.
A motion was made , after the nomination
of a separate ticket , to appoint a confer
ence committee with one member from each
district and four from the
state-at-large , to
confer with the democratic central com
mittee , with a view to arranging a set of
electors and fill vacancies on the state
ticket , but this looked too much like fusion
Tor the middle-of-the-road faction , and no
vote had been reached until long after mid
night.

NEW YORK , July 28. The democratic
state committee met at the HoKmau house
today , and at a session lasting only fifteen
minutes , decided to call the convention for
the nomination of state officers to meet at
Buffalo on September 10. No other busi
ness was considered at the meeting.
Prior to the meeting , several of the leaders
among the commltteemen were questioned
as to tlio probable action of the state con

form of the national convention recently
held at Chicago. The general sentiment was

CHICAGO , July 23. The general managers
ot the western lines met today for the
purpose of taking some action calculated
to stiffen grain rates , but they had poor
success. While the meeting was in session ,
It was announced that the Missouri Pacific
had reduced the rates between the Mis
souri and Mississippi rivers to 4 cents , and
that the Great Western had taken another
slice out of the rates between Kansas City
and Chicago , by reducing the rate to 7 cents ,
a cut of 2 cents. This reduction goes Into
effect at once. No action toward meeting
It was taken by the other lines , but there
Is a general feeling that they will bo com-
pellcd'to put In the same rates as the Great
Western. Among the grain men the opinion
Is that the rates will bo reduced still moro
In the near future , some holding that the
rate will bo 10 cents from Kansas City to
Now York.
Thcro Is consldorablo feeling among the
lines of the freight association against the
officials ot the Joint Tralllc association be
cause of the refusal of that association to
rescind Its action regarding the reduction
of rates on corn from Missouri river points
to New York. The cut was made some tlmo
since , and was from 40 to 23 cents , The
Central association roads tried bard to have
the reduction removed , but the Joint Traf
fic people were firm , and said that the Im
mediate amount of cribbed corn In the
west justified the reduction. The result
has been , the general roads claim , that the
gulf lines have been compelled to take an
active part In the fight with the result that
they are getting the bulk of the traffic and
taking from both the western and the cen
tral roads Immense amounts ot business
that would otherwise have como through
Chicago. The Central committee people are
Inclined to lay all the blame for this con
dition of affairs on the shoulders of the
Joint Traffic association , and they are sore
accordingly. *
