Terrible Wind, Rain and Hail Storm in Germany. PITTSBURG LABOR TROUBLES. SENTENCED TO FIFTEEN YEARS. ‘The Term of Imprisonment Imposed on Ex- Treasurer Bardsley. Pumapenputa, July 2.—Ex-City Treasurer John Bardsley was sontenced this morning by Judge Wilson to fifteen years’ solitary confine- ment in the Eastern penitentiary and to pay a fine equaling the sum to which he plead guilty. . As on the previous occasions that Bardsley has faced the court, when he was brought in thiy morning he was not placed in the dock, but was allowed to st beside his couneel within the space reserved tor members of the bar. ‘Ihe fact that Bardsley would come up for sentence today was not generally known, so that when District Attor- ney Graham arose to address the court and ask. that sentence be passed upon the prisoner there were not more than fifty people im the court room. The district attorney spoke but briefly, but in the course of his address he denied Bardsley’s contention, made in his statement to the court a week ago, that the ex- treasurer had not misappropriated a dol- lar, Mr. Graham showed that by Bards- ley's own statement he must at least, misappropriated the sum of €220,000, as that amount was required to be made good by his sureties according to their bond to the wiate and city. Mr. Graham practically, ade mitted that Bardsley’s declaration thit he placed $945,000 in the Keystone Bank, taking due bills for the money, was true and that money was deposited in the bank. Although not able as yet to specifically show where the m Es ley’s embezzlements would amount to between 400,000 and 500,000. MERCY ASKED FOR THE PRIVOXER. Mr. Alexander, counsel for Bardsley, re- viewed the statements made by his client and appealed to the court for mercy on the ground of Bardsley's plea of guilty and his past serv- ices to the city. Bardsley did not get a dollar of the money he put into the Keystone Bank and that within six months it would be shown who did. Mr. Alexander vehemently declared that his client has not stolen « dollar, but that he had only pleaded guilty to the statutory offenses of loaning, speculating with and receiving interest on the public funds. Never with his consent, waid Mr, Alexander, should Bardsley appear be- fore the investigating committee of councils to testify, but if at any time the district attorney desired any information or assistance his client was willing to aid him. While bis counsel had been speaking Bardsley had sat with bowed head nervously tracing imaginary lines with the back of pen upon the table before nim. With the exception of his brother-in-law not one of the hundreds of friends that Bardsley had a year ago were present when he arose to receive the sentence Of the court. As Bardsley got up Judge Willson motioned hint to be seated while he delivered the lecture and words of admonition that a judge usually prefaces his sentences with. SEVERE ORDEAL FOR BARDSLEY. Judge Willson's severe words caused Bards- ley the most palpable distress. When Judge Willson spoke of the past friendship between himself and the man awaiting his sentence Bardsley’s hands opened and shut convulsively, his face flushed and paled and his head sank upon his breast. Av Judge Willson pro- ceeded and jlainly said that he could find no palliation for Bardsley’s mual- feasance, and that his offense was the more open to censure for his abuse of his ofticial position, the prisoner almost collapsed and seemed about to sink to the tloor from his chair. Nevertheless, before Judge Willson had coneluded and ordered him to arise to receive sentence Bardsley had completely regained his composure and received the words that sends him to prison for fifteen years with & stoicism that was almost indifference in ite utter absence of any emotion. District Attorney Grahain places the deficit at $553,435.38, which is $38,000 more than Bards admitted in ” his own statement. ‘This amount will be reduced by payments to be made by his sureties, so the | § amount of the fine will not be determined until after the examination of the accounts shall be dinished. : Mr. ‘Bardsley returned to Moyamensing this" afternoon and it is expected that he will be taken to the Eastern peni- tentiary tomorrow, where he will be shaved ef his beard’and be given a striped suit and thereafter be known by a number. — TERRIBLE STORM IN GERMANY. Immense Damage to Property and Great Loss of Life. Beatty, July 2.—A terrible storm of thunder, hail and rain passed over a large part of Ger- many last night, causing immense damage to property and loss of life in the villages of Suchtellon, near Dusseldorf, —Sittard. In the Crefeld district, also near Dussel- dorf, the storm was ex ly severe, and the thunder and lightning terrific. Many houses were e and the inmates buried in the ruins. Thirteen bodies have already been recovered. Army joneers have been sent to the scene of the jisaster to aid in the work of rescue. It is yet too soon to form any estimate of the total num- ber of lives lost. ‘At Brunswick the storm assumed the propor- tions of a reine and the inhabitants report last night as being one of the most terrible in their experience. This morning the strects were filled with Houses were demoli nd others aged, while many thoropghfares are turned into miniature rivers. hail stones were unusually large, and, as @ consequence, it is estimated that’ 100, e8 lass have been broken. The church that forms a marked fea- ancient or Church of St. Blaize, the patron saint of Bruns- wick, St. Martin's, St. Ulrich’s, St. Andrews and St. Gatherine’sare all more or less injured in various portions of their fabric. In the neighborhood of Sprotiau, in Prussian Bilesia, the hail was so large that the grain in the fields was literally cut to pieces. At Sanct Ruprecht near Gratz, the capital of Styria, in ‘Austria, a water spout burst over the town with fearfal sweeping away the cabins of two peasants, Nine persons were drowned. Every hour is adding to the story of disaster and but few places in the path of the storm seem to have escay ——_—_ ‘THE PITTSBURG CARPENTERS’ STRIKE. puro, Pa., July 2.—The carpenters who will go to work after the Fourth at theiremploy- ers’ terms have done two things they didn't count on during their nine weeks’ strike. ‘They have forced @ score of smaller con- tractors to the wall, who have fallen into the of the mcter builders, who advanced 7m money, thus making the Builders’ Asso- ciation more of « monopoly than ever.’ ‘The ot jeot Pe) advertised eight-hour move is tho bck oe received by the Federation of That order ‘will lose several thousand members from this district owing to itenon-fulfillment of » to provide money for the strikers. is also true of the great coke strike, and both fell cause—poverty.

He was willing, however, that the | rules be extended to cover the Indian service ‘and to that he will give his close attention soon. ‘This would indicate a desire on the part of the President to postpone the revision of the rules toa time when he oan give it his entire thought and further that he is anxious to in- augurate some amendments that will mak con- siderable change in the system. ——_—-e.
