GIVER TEK-VEAR SENTENCE JUDGE TAYLER DENIES MOTION OF MRS. CHADWICK’'S ATTOR- NEY FOR NEW TRIAL.. Cleveland, March 29.—Judge Tayler of the United States district court has denied the motion of Mrs. Chad- wick’s attorneys for a new trial and sentenced the woman to ten years in-| the state prison. An appeal \vlll be taken to the United States cuit court of appeals. Mrs. Chadwick was convicted on seven counts and sentenced upon six. For four of these counts a sentence of two years each was imposed. Upon two counts a sentence of one year each was pronounced. Attorney J. P. Dawley, of counsel for Mrs.' Chad- wick, took exception to the sentences upon each count, except the first count. Thé defense intends to make the claim that the court cannot im- pose a separate sentence for each count and that the law applied to the | general charge instead of each inci-j dent of a general charge. The var ous_counts of the indictment are con-: sidered by the defense to refer to de- tails of the general offense. This and other points of the Chadwick trial The first step taken by the defense will be to ask for a stay of sentence until the appeal is carried out. If the present conviction and sentence is sustained by ‘the last court the other six indictments will be" dropped, otherwise they will he used against the woman.

Petersburg, March 29.—A semi- panic prevailed on the bourse here during the day. Russian imperial fours fell a point, to 85%.

NUMBER OF PEGPLE IXJURED TORNADO ALSO DOES CONSIDER- ABLE PROPERTY DAMAGE AT LOUISBURG, MINN. Appleton, Minn, March 29.—A’ cy- clone struck Louisburg, eight miles southwest of this city in Lac qui Parle county, during’ the evening, completely demolishing the business district, consisting of about a dozen stores, wrecked three grain elevators and a grain depot and unroofed or damaged nearly every house in the village. Seven persons were injured, several seriously, as follows: . Ole Winger, badly bruised; Mrs. Ole Winger, bruised and internally injured; Minnie Winger, badly cut; Jennie Winger, aged seven, neck dis- located, arm fractured and internally injured, will probably die; John Win- ger, knee hurt; Paul Paulson, aged sixty-five, seriously bruised; Fred Moen, uurled 200 feet, badly injured. The wind, which had prevailed all day, reached a high velocity toward evening, and at 6:30. o’clock became cyclonic in its force. Beyond the damage done at Louisburg no other storm reports are received from this vicinity. From Breckenridge, on the Water- town branch of the Great Northern, a relief train was dispatched to Louis- burg as soon as news of the storm was received and from Appleton doc- tors went on a handcar to give med- ical assistance. Madison, which is twelve miles south of the stricken village, also sent aid to the sufferers. The direction of .the cyclone, it is reported, was from scutheast to north west, and beside the high wind that prevailed it gave little warning of its approach. That there were not a number of persons killed by falling walls and flying debris is considered remarkable. TRIFLING BLAZE CAUSES PANIC. Number of Women Injured in Wild Rush to Escape.
