The storm clouds came down from the north, as they did on Monday last, but before a drop of rain fell the wind sud- denly veered to the westward, and after a drizzle, accompanied by a little wind, the size of the drops increased and the wind blew furiously, starting an empty wagon from the corner of ith street, and blowing it about a square along the avenue, overturning itacross the railroad track near 10th street. “ Another wagon was blown some distance, and a great number of trees were uprooted and houses un- roofed. Mr. Edward Hume was severely cut in the act of lowering a window in the billiard room over Davis’ hat store, on Pennsylvania avenue. An artery was cut and he bled very profusely. Trees were blown down in Lafayette park and limbs torn off. In the White House eroumiistiions was a similar condition of af- fairs. In addition, two sections of the iron fence by the walk leading from the Treasury to the door of the White House were blown down and the iron spikes twisted. Fifieenth street, eppcate the Treasury, looked like a river, while two wagons which upset with the horses standing, showed the strength of the wind. A large quantity of window glass was broken. At the Western Union Telegraph of- fice in the Corcoran building two large plate glass windows were blown in and broken to atoms. Fred. Klotz, a telegraph messenger, Was struck by one of the broken_ plates. He received very serious iujuries. His right arm was half severed between shoulder and elbow. The plate-gla:s windows broken were among the largest in the city. At the present writing, 3 p. m., another storm cloud seems bearing down on ns from the northwest. '878.—Hon.

About 5:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon Lieut. Vernon, in charge of the detective force, received information that burglars were going to rob the office of the Metropolitan street railroad, situated beyond the P-street bridge: that their plans were to make the attempt between 1 and 2 o'clock, at least after midnight, after the last car had been turned in from the Schuetzenfest. Lieut. Vernon Instructed Detectives -MeDevitt, McEifresh, Miller and Voss to take care of the case. The detectives at once communicated with the officers of the railroad such information as had been received, and they expressed their great surprise that so bold an act was contem- plated, and at once made arrangements to eye the detectives all the facilities possible lor working the case in their own way. THE DETECTIVES ON GUARD. The detectives proceeded to the office of the company between 11 and 120’clock. Deteciive Voss was stationed in the room where ail the money is turned in dud counted. It is the custom of the treasurer, Mr. Moore, to leave the office at 5o’clock for his home, and the night watchman, Mr. Jones, takes charge and receives the money boxes of the conductors. At the present season, where there are so inany night entertainments given—the schuet- zenfest and river excursions—the number of cars is considerably increased, as well as the receipts of the company, and it is presumed that their knowledge of these facts led the burglars t> believe they would get a good amount of booty. Private watchman Jones, Superintendent Lloyd Emmert and Detective MeDevitt took a stand in the treasurer's room adjoining, and Detective McKifresh and Mr. Charles Flinders, who accompanied the officers, took their places in a car in the shed, where it was supposed they would pass through. APPROACH OF FIVE MASKED BURGLARS. After remaining there about half an hour five men—three white and two coiored—all masked, were seen sneaking their way along the line of the track, which was occupied by empty cars under the shed. The leader of the gang walked to the end of the shed, and the others circled about the car occupied by McElfresh and Flinders, for the purpose, ap- rently of taking an_ observation. The leader, after taking a circuit returned to the others, and reported that it was too light to cross over an open space between them and the office they wished to enter. A COUNCIL OF WAR. Their conversation was distinctly overheard by McElfresh and Flinders. They concluded to hold a consultation before commencing operations, and went into an empty car ad- joining. One of the party made a proposition for all to rush over this open space together, they Su posing, the watchman was in the yard. The leader thought the best way was for one to goat a time, and in case the watch- man showed up, TO KNOCK HIM ON THE HEAD. This hie after some discussion, was agreed to. Unfortunately for Messrs. McElfresa and Flinders, the villains had to pass the car oc- cupied by them, and one of the robbers acci-. dentally looked in and discovered Mr. McEl- fresh, and supposing it some one placed there by the company to watch the cars, he called to his confederates, when they returned to their car to consult upon this circumstance. In the meantime the officers remained per- fectly quiet, not showing that they had been discovered. | M'ELFRESH IN DANGER. The majority appeared to be in favor of re- turning to this car and shooting the man in the car (McEjfresh), but the leader succeeded in convincing them that it might break up the job, as the report of a pistol might alarm the olice outside; that after they had finished the las of robbing the office they would return, and if this man in the car gave them away they would settle him. Fortunately for Me- Elfresh and Mr. Flinders. THE TINKLING OF A CAR BELL was heard, some late cars being on the return to the stable from the &chuetzenfest. The burglars laid down low in their ear to screen themselves from observation, and the officers taking advantage of this, jumped out quietly and ran to a betier position. After these late carshad been put away, the burglars allap proached the office, and bursting the dour open entered one at a time. DETECTIVE VOSS IN A TIGHT PLACE. After they had entered and closed the door they discovered the nigine Place of Detective Voss, who they probably supposed was a watchman. One made the remark, at the same time covering him with his pistol: ‘* Come down from there, pod es a—,or I'll blow your brains out.” Mr. McDevitt, concealed in he adjoining room, immediately opened fthe door of the treasurer's room and blew a distress whistle. This confused the burglars, and Mr. Voss, taking advantage of it, com- menced firing his revolver into them. The urpose of blowing this whistle was to notify the police outside, as they had been previously requested to be near this depot, and to signal Mr. McElfresh, who was in another part of the building. FLIGHT OF THE BURGLARS. When the burglars found that there were more persons in the office than they expected they attempted to escape, and as they were making their flight from the office they re- ceived volley after volley from Night-watch- man Jones, Superintendent Eumert and De- tective Voss. me of them were seen to stumble, as if hit. ONE OF THE BURGLARS FATALLY SHOT. One of the men was badly, and it is sup- posed, fatally shot, in the right side, just above the hip, and was secured and after- wards brought to this city and taken to Prov- idence hospital, where Dr. Townshend _and others pronounced him fatally injured, ie is a white man named Charles Schenig, and has formerly been in the employ of the company. His brother was also in the party, and is be lieved to have been shot, but made his escape. They live on 13'4 street. in the Division, and both are well known to the police as “bad men.” During the shooting scene in the office Officer Voss was in great danger of his life, and at least fifteen shots were fired, many of them being aimed at him. He succeeded in escaping without a scratch, and at the same time gave them as good as they sent. It was a short, sharp and DESPERATE STRUGGLE FOR LIFE with Mr. Voss, and he was Cy alone until McDevitt and McElfresh rushed in to his res- cue, and all poured it into them together. The detectives think that three of the burglars are wounded, as they were seen to fall during the @ring. The white men wore masks of biue flannel, made like a Bag drawn over their heads, with holes cut for the eyes. One of the masks was groped in the office ; also a lon; domestic cotton a intended to carry off their swag in, with three or four linen ropes, about three yards long, intended, it isthought, to gag or tié any one they might find neces- sary. Another white man, whose name is not known, was SHOT IN THE ANKLE in the cash-room, aud was secured and brought tothe city and locked up. He will not taik any. All of the burglars were armed with large revolvers. A heavy oak billy, loaded in the end with lead, was pped in the cash- room and secured. These things are all at lice headquarters. The whole affair lasted or about four hours, the fight not occupying above afew minutes; but the burglars were takep by surprise, and showed cowardice when they found whom they had to deal with, as they Sneaked off in different ways, not caring for their two comrades who were left on the ground. After things became quiet Mr. Emmert rigged up a car, and the otiicers returned with the two wounded men, gettin; to batiee headquarters about 5 o’clock this morning. A LAW BADLY WANTED TO PUNISH ATTEMPT. ED CRIME. ‘This is brobably the first bold attempt of this kind by masked burglars to fight their wa; through a job of this kind in this District. Had the detectives been properly suppoiicd in the commencement, when the five desper- adoes entered the premises, they might possi- bly have captured them, but as there is no law in this District to punish an attempt to com- mit a felony, the officers thought it best to wait until they could catch them inthe act. The leader of the job knowing that at this season of the year a considerable amount of money might be secured, took all the precautions for @ suceessful raid on these premises, and wel elated tomarder, ordoanything they mi, ink hecessary ‘0 insure success. ‘The 6 cers deserve great credit for the manner in which they planned the scheme to baftie them ant a — ‘stubborn resistance they made in What course will be pursued by the police is not known, but they will await any develop- hich may be made by the prisoners. ‘The one in the hospital cannot recover.

TWENTY PEOPLE KILLED AND MANY HOUSES DESTROYED. am A terrible tornado passed over Wallingford, Conn., about six o'clock last evening, and blew over houses, uprooted trees and caused the ies devastation. It is estimated that the illed will number at least twenty, while the wounded reach twice that number. The tele- ‘aph wires and poles were blown down, so thatit was im) ble to communicate direcily with New Haven or outside points. After the tornado it was tound that it had been confined toa belt of territory about half a mile | wide, and the whole damage and loss of life had occurred on the sand plains about one- quarter of a mile north of the railroad station near the line of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad. Every house in the track of the storm wasdemolished. The Cath. olic church. a frame building and the new brick high school were totally destroyed. The top of the brick factory of the Wallingford community was carried away. In many cases fire was communicated to the ruins by the in use at the time of the disaster, and but for the rain falling in torrents a conflagra- tion would have added to the horrors of the calamity.

Dr. Ellis was called in and succeeded in saving her life peering antidotes, It appears that irs. Hays was engaged to be married toa young may, who Thursday night married an- other lady. She was informed of the weddin; about noon and is supposed to have proceede: directly to her room and swallowed the poison. Late last night she was in an improved condi- tion, and will probably recover. Miss Annie Miller, who resides at 187 Ra- borg street with her married sister, attempted to commit suicide Thursday night by swallow- ing a quantity of laudanum. The family for- tunately discovered her condition and Dr. Charles H. Thomas upon arriving found the patient so far under the influence of the drug as be perfectly cold. After about three hours of continued efforts she was restored to consciousness and is now recovering. Miss Miller is a young lady of decidedly a prepos- sessing appearance, but the course of her true love not running smoothly is supposed to have resorted to the poisonous drug to end her troubles.—[ Bait.

They were first tried between the Relay House and the Auditor’s Office at Cam- den Station, and flew direct in fair time. Yes. terday morning a carrier was let loose at the Ebbitt House, in Washington, by the conduc- tor who took it from Baltimore. After making a few circuits the bird started in the direction of Baltimore. | It did not arrive, however, and it is pupyreet Must have been shot on the way. <A few days before the same bird was set loose at Bladensburg and reached Camden Station safely in about an hour. In case of interruption to travel between here aud pales ies and the cutting down of tele- graph wires, say, for instance, in the event of another suspension of railroad trattic such as occurred a year ago, carrier pigeons accus. tomed to flying to Camden Station would be very goods agents for communication and could carry cypher dispatches very easily. The main chance of their falling is in case’ such as that of yesterday. Somebody might shoot the carrier, and the pigeon and the message pc alike be “cooked.”—[Balto. Americun 0-day.

The garter itself associates him with some filty of the most distinguished personages in Europe, nearly half of them being ro: val and the other haif British nobles of the highest rank. As Lord Beaconsfield has done much more than most of them, and has, in the opin- ion of the Queen, served materially the intsr- ests of the empire, it is reasonable enough that he should be admitted into uiShighly dis.
