A terrible cyclone struck Little Rock, Ark., last evening and almost devastated the business portion of the city. Several People are known to have been killed and injured, while it is feared scores of others have met the same horrible fate. ‘The main portion of the business center, bounded on the south by 3d street, on the north by the river front,.on the west by Center street, and on the east by Com- merce street, is practically in ruins, and the amount of damage is incalculable. The total property loss will probably ap- proxtmate a half million dollars. The cyclone was accompanied by a ter- Tific rain storm, and the stocks of goods in the business houses which were unroofed, though not otherwise wrecked, were de- stroved by water. The storm struck the state penitentiary, which stands on a hill in the western part of the city, with fearful force, destroying the dining room, tearing down the stable and shops, unroofing the main cell building and demolishing the warden’s office. Sev- eral of the convicts were seriously injured, one of whom died an hour afterward. Down town the lightning struck the Mar- tin bicck, corner of Spring and 24 streets, totally wrecking the third floor. A man by the name of Eaton was fatally injured there. The Tiller building, corner Center and Markham streets, was unroofed and a part of the fourth floor of Gleason's Hotel was blown away. At Main and Center streets the tops of several adjacent build- ings lie piled up in an indescribable heap. The worst Gamage, however, was done to property on Markham and Commerce sireets, Nearly every bvilding in this dis- trict was unroofed and many are totally vrecked. The large three-story building at Market and Cumberland, occupied by the B. H. McCarthy Company, is a total wreck, as is also the two-story building on the opposite corner, occupied by Max Elkans as a salocn. The third story of the old Dem- ing House was biown off and the several stcries under it were fivoded by water and filled with debris. The streets are filled with tin roofs, elec- tric wires and other wreckage and it will be several dayg before the extent of the darrage is known accurately. The large cotton warehouse situated at 24 and Scott streets, owned by J. HL Bacum, was wrecked. It fell on the Western Union telegraph effice next door and wrecked it, thus cutting off all telegraphic communication with outside points. The city was in the densest darkness and the streets were veritable streams of mud. Among those known to have been serious- ly and probably fatally wounded are C. P. Monroe, member of the Arkansas legisla- ture, and —— Eaton. Samuel Smith, a prominent cotton buyer, is also badly in- jured. Others are known to have been more or less injured, but the names are not obtainable. All kinds of rumors are aftoat, one to the effect that the insane asylum, in which some 60 patients are confined, has been blown down and many patients injured, but the asylum is situated a mile from the city and the rumor cannot be confirmed. A number of escaped lunatics have been captured near the union depot and this fact gives color to the rumor. 2+ WASHINGTON AVERAGES, Four Players Above the .300 Mark in Batting. The batting and fielding averages of the wi ashington team follow: Player, . Joyce... Batting. Fielding. Ss Siu Hasamaear in # games at ura base led Joyce, who played US, by .875 to .ST2. Scheibeck at short was next to the lowest of the shortstops, Radford standing lowest. Radford at second base led F. Ward in that position by .006 to .903. Selbach was fourth of sixteen left field- ers, while Abbey stood fifteenth. Abbey ranked seventh of sixteen center fielders. George Tebeau stood fifteenth. Hasamaear ranked fifth of twenty-one right fielders, while Selbach stood ninth. Joe Sullivan, sold to Philadelphia, was among the tip toppers in batting, his’ aver- ave, .378, being far ahead of any local hit- ter. At short he tied Dahlen, beating Mur- phy, Fuller, Irwin, Schelveck and Kadford. SSS: THE GLENNAN DIFFICULTY. Statements by Both Parties as to Mon- day Night's Occurrence. The filing of a suit for divorce yesterday by Dr. A, H. Glennan ageinst his wife, as stated in The Star, was an unexpected move on his part. Mrs. Glennan denies with indignation the statements in the bil of complaint, charging her with adul- tery. In regard to the man Silling, whom it is claimed was in the room at $10 12th street with her on Monday night, when Dr. Glennan burst open the door, she says he is mo more than a friend, who sympathizes with her in her domestic trouble. Silling claims to be a traveling agent for a St. Louis shoe house. It ts hog probable that Mrs. Glennan will apply to the court for a writ of ha- beas corpus, in order that it may be decided whether or not the children should remain In the Early of cod-liver ~ oil its use was limited to easing those far “= advanced in consumption Science soon discovered in it the Prevention and cure of consumption.

Court of Appeals Sends the Case Back to the Court Below. ‘The Court of Appeals has sent the case of Richard Weightman, assignee, against ri iby Appeals on exceptions taken report. The auditor held tha’ of the first named comporatie fully into the its successor and not in fraud of its cuatiioens that 127 bonds issued by the latter company constituted a prior lien upon the property, and that of the holders of the bonds Annie 1. Weightman (0,400) and W. B. Webb «$400) had prior liens. There was # receiver appointed, and after a sale the net ceeds in his hands were about $17,000. distribution of the amount was scaled by the auditor, and his action confirmed by the court below.

Other recommendations are by the court to the auditor, and the case is remanded tor action by the court below in conformity with such instructions. —> An I resting Debate. The Young Men's Christian Society of Mt. Vernon Place Church held an interest- ing meeting in the parlor of the church last night at 7:30. There was a good at- tendance, ard an interesting program was rendered, which consisted of devotional ex- ercises, followed by a debate. The subject of debate was: “Should a lawyer defend a client whom he knows to be guilty of a heinous crime?” It was decided in the affirmative. The next meeting night will be the 234. It was decided to ald the Sun- day school in raising funds for missionary purposes, by helping to make the lecture to be delivered in the church a success. ——e The District's Answer. The District Commissioners have filed their answer to the application of Thos. J. D. Fuller, who several days ago petitioned for a writ of mandamus compelling them to enforce certain tax lien certificates owned by him. The answer is in conformity with the opinion rendered by the atturney to the District, Mr. S. T.Thomas, several days ago, the Commissioners ttating thet they can- not enforce liens. They say that Mr. Ful- with their ends or with her. DOWN “To tT.
