NO. 38 BROTHERLY BLAST Philatephia Collites With a Well Di- velop.d Cyclene, A Rotary Coll:ction of Ohaos Dance on the Dclawara, Considerable Property Damaged— Some Lives Lost—A Dest tive Deluge in the East, A FATAU BLAST, A CYCLONRE STRIKES PHILADELPHIA. Privaveiraia, Pa,, August 3, —A terrific oyclone, sweeping up tho Delaware river this afternoon, struck this city near Greonwich, demolishing o portion of the works of the Pennsylvania Salt Manufacturing Company, and Injuring soveral employes, Then It took a courso across tho river, wrecking the rlver stesmer, Major Roybold, and the ferryboat Peerless, The storm blow the pilot, Emory Townsend and Captain Evgene Reybold, of the steamer Reyhold, into the river, drown- ing the former and painfully iojuring the cap- tain. The Peerless was awept clean almost to the water’s edge. When Majr Raybold loft the dack for Salem, Now Jersey, the had on board about fifty passengers, although a8 1o tickets were sold it is impossible to as- cortain the exact number, She had aleo about fourteen officers and deck hands, Of this number of paople upon the wrecked boat it does not appear that any lives wera lost ex- cept but that of the pilot, although it is posei- ble that some of the passengera were washad off &nd lcst without any ome knowiog of the fatal circumstances, The st:am tug coming up the river aftec the disaster report that the body of a wuman was reen for a fow minutes floatiug in the river near tas svot where the cyclone struck the steamboat. She sank out of sight and could not ba fourd when the tug made search for her, B, I Warner, one of the passengers, describes the scene. Ho was stancing on the upper deck and aw the black storm approaching, bu’ as it moved rather slowiy he supposad it was o rainstorm, When it stcuck she boat he dis- covered that its immense force oame from its rotary motion, Ha and several othors were thrown throvgh a holoto the lower deck and ali the upper works were swept away like chaff, Tke confusion among the passengers was inde- seribable and roveral jumped into the river, but Warner balieves tbat all were rescued. While the cyclone was upon the vessel every- thivg was biack as the blackest night, Sofas wero broken to splinters and carpets torn to shreds in the cabin sa if it had been paper, The cyclone, ha thinks lasted sbout a minute, and after it pasced tho versel rolled and pitched in the great waves and came near swampiog. The storm then passed over to the Jersey side, striking Jotn Diatogries ship yards bolow Kaighus Point, and destroy- ing the buildivg of the establishment, then took a course niovg the New Jersey river, demolishing buildings in its path up to Brdge avenue, Camden. At this point the cyclme took an easterly course to Iifthstreet, Camden, embracing in in ita path all that section of the city between Second and Fifth streets to the Delaware river, which washes the northern seetion of the city, passing over the river, skirting P’et- ty’sisland. The storm pasted over to that part of the twenty-fifth ward, Philadelphia, know as Richmond, In its ravages in Camw- den scores of dwelling houses were unroofed and some of them thrown down. The dam age to business property a'ong the river front is enormous. Hundreds f families are ren- dered homelees and ono victim, Charles Daisey, killed outright. At the American dredging company’s wharf, another, Harry Stevens, had his log cut off by a flying piece of timber and will probably ‘die. The track of tne storm through Richmond is marked with death and destruction Its track was almost due north from the Richmond co wharves, About ona hundred aud fifty dwell- ing houses were wracked, also many damaged &0 badly as to be renderad unfit for habitation, and 200 families were driven from their homes to be cared for by neighbors A nurgber of persons were seriously and some fasally ijured. A girl of 10 years Tazzie McVeigh, was killed a% her home, 1721 Maelvale street, in sight of her mother, who was herself pinioned to the floor by fallen raf- ters, a few feet from the dying child The eyclone i discrived by those who witnessed it progress up the river, as an immense cone- shaped clond with its apex reste ing_ upon the water and its baee clreling withrain clouds which were drawn in denee masses from the sky, It ia impossible yet to estimate the umount of damage done, The following are the names of the killed and injured as far as can be ascertained: DEAD, Emery Townsend, Solem, New Jersoy, plot of the steamboat Major Reybold. Charles Daizey, aged 19, ship carpenter, killed by a flying timber at the wharf of the American dredging company, Camden. Lizzie McVeigh, aged 10, was crushed to death between timbers at her home, Tive persons were injured on board the eteamer Reybold; ten in Camden and thir- teon in Philudelphia, John Dialogue, of Camden, whose works werodestroyed, saye: Looking out of the door upon the river I saw the tornado ap- proach, I could sce the buildings of the Phil- adelphis salt works on the Philadelvhia side oing off Jike chaff. Then it struck fle Bajor Reybold, which i partially sbreast of my place, Portions of her upper works were hurled fully 400 feet in the air. A tre mendous 1oar preceeded it, the moving fury resembled & donee mass of rolling black smoke and it was travelling within ten feet of the water, In the river a singular phencie- non wss noiiced mot only by mysell but by all my men in the yard. This was a huge ball of fire fully ten feet in dismbter, which swiftly accom- panicd the storm cloud. aw this ball of fire explode aheut 26) yards north of me with areport ko ternfic s to shake the very fundation of my buildiogs in my _ywd Following tuis came o number of explosions, but of less force, All the tky tothe eastward was bright aud nad » sort of raiubow appesrance. [ fack, this was ono of the most remarksblo sights I had ever wituessed, The ball of fire which expoded I um sati-fied played the mis- chicf at the Awmerican Lredging company’s place.

He spoke cf a Kentucky man—the stronghold of Bourbon whisky —Ilecturing on temperance in Nebraska, and yet in behalf of Kentucky he wounld say that in one-fourth of the counties un- der local optlon, the people would not tolerate the saloon for high licenso or low license, and were under virtual pro- hibitlon, Revenue 15 the only apology offered for lcensing tho ssloon, and the taxes caused by criminal prosecution the out- growth of the saloon more than coneumer the revenue.

War nows came In by privato cable, there being nene of » public character, as to.day is n legal holiday abroad, but this class of men mot with no cre- dence whatever, The close, oxcept 1n provie vione, was about steady, Whenat averaged higher, but at timea during the morning ses- sion was a littlo unsetsled. Tho opening was strong at an advance of nearly o on reported great activity and fears of a panic in consols. The favorite futures recorded a slicht advance duriog the early part of the session, but toward the closs the feelin be- came s _little oasy, Telegrams came in from New York estimatiog the in. creaso in the vitible supply at 750,000 bush els, Added to this the government erop esti- mate was understood to be 150,600,000, an in« crease of 2,000,000 bushels in its provious estimato, These cauees had a particularly woakening 1ofluence, Selling in the pit was vory general directly after tho opening, al- thongh there was no heavy unloading. The fact that calls sold very close to the market on Saturday tempted many to invest and the transactions to-day were simply eales against these privileges, The general selling, together with the weakness in the provision pit, helped the other causes in breaking the local mar- ket off slightly, although all the outside markets held up well and maintained prices of the cpening. Corn was a rolatively steadier desl than wheat, but es usual prorentod no_featuros be. youd moderate epeculative inquiry and suf cient fluctuntions in pricos to make the m ket interesting from a ecalpivg standpoint, At the close of the morning session 16 was stoady. Oats in sympatby with the markets were easy after tho opening which was & strong and higher prices, receipts being light aud in quiry good. Provisions ruled weal: and lower thongh quite active, The unutually larce stocks pork and short rits in storo in Chicago as shown by the monthly statement of the board of trade inspector put a damper on the open- g market and the bosr crowd jumped on to them both and hammercd them” vigorcusly at the opeviog. Al outward indications wero in favor of the bears, as the recaipta of Tive hogs were unusually heavy and ths news of cholera in Europe more than usually alarming. The declice in pork was 25 conte, the markot closing heavy.

Low grade native stock and cow stock were »_shade stronger. The display of Texans was liberal.
