i THE OMAHA DAILY gEx SUNDAY, JULY 7, 1895 Jured and are not expected to live. A dozen people were seriously injured. Cooper & Hodgking' dry goods store was destroyed, the Methodist, Christian and Colored Meth- odist churches were blown down and a dozen residences and as many barns were totally wreckod. A complete llst of dead reported at 2 o'clock Is follows SALLIE WEBSTER, aged 70. FLORENCE WEBSTER, aged 36. RALPH WEB! THOMAS SHIE H. HIBBS. The injured are: Mrs. Neal, both collar bones broken and internal Injuries. James Neal, #calp wound and Internal in- Juries. Roy Webster, right arm broken, right hip and left elbow dislocated. Mrs. Martha Smith, hip dislocated and in- ternal Injuries. Etta Smith, internal injuries. George A. Dicker, head injured. A. G. Hanback, head injured. Three members of A. ‘s badly injured. Mrs. Thomas Ehields, south, fatally injured. The injuries of the mother of James Neal and A. G. Hanback will probably prove fatal. All wires are down and another storm is coming. The storm struck the city at 6 o'clock, ac- companied by a violent rain storm, which was a9 quick and destructive as a waterspout. Fully twenty people were more or less in- jured, some fatally. The storm was not anticipated and no preparations were made by the citizens to get out of the way in storm cellars. When it had abated and the work of rescue was begun a dozen homeless families were found In the streets or in the ruins of their homes. Mrs. Webster and her mother and daughter were found in their wrecked house. Hibbs was Killed in his house. Cooper & Hodg- kirk's brick store building, the best structure in town, was demolished, one wall and the rear end having been blown in, destroying the stock of dry goods. Twenty-seven box cars were blown from the Kansas City, Fort Soott & Memphis track. The freight and passenger depots were almost demolished and much damage to freight resulted. Several fine residences and many small houses and outbulldings were blown away. In shaft 49 of the Kansas and Texas Coal company, at Weir City, where many miners were engaged, the water rushed in with such rapidity that the miners barely escaped with their lives. FEvery mule in the shaft was drowned. The crecks were swollen beyond their banks within a few hours and fuller reports from the country roundabout can but bring news of damage to life and prop- erty from the combined forces of wind and water. The Memphis railroad’s wrecking train and bridge crews were called from this city to repair its depots and small washouts which will not interfere with traffic. There seems to have been two currents of wind which struck the town, one from the north and the other from the west, and these met at the Methodist Bpiscopal church, Joined forces and turned east, doing serious damage to property before meeting, but after coming together the destruction of property was complete. In the track of the current from the north the passenger depot was the first thing damaged. Further on much dam- age was dono to resldence property, shade trees and everything in its way. The cur- rent from the west seems to have been the stronger. It struck some of the residences west of the freight depot, doing serious dam- age, but when it came to the yards of the railroad twenty-eight freight ~cars were thrown from the track and badly damaged The depot was moved off the foundation, wrecked about the roof and the goods and contents were badly flooded. From the rail- road track on to the point of meeting the other current the damage to property was not 80 groat. WRECKED THE CHURCH. The first object struck after the meeting was the Methodist Episcopal church. This was totally destroyed and it lies in a heap of ruins. The current turned slightly to the southeast, doing a good deal of damage until it reached a point just west of J, M. Cooper's large store, where it turned directly east, striking the store building, caving in the west, end and badly damaging the roof. The store was flooded and much damage done to the goods. The mext object of the storm’s fury was the old blacksmith shop on the northwest corner of Military and River streets, which was completely ewept away. The Christian church was directly in the path. 1t lies like a pile of kindling wood. The Episcopal church was not touched, but the storm struck further up the street on the south side and from there on not a residence escaped. J. M. Cooper had seven houses, including the one in which he lived, very badly dam- aged. Colonel Willlam March, A. G. Han- beck, Mr. Childs, Ira Perkins—the r dences of all these are in ruins. Three mem- bers of the Webster family, recently from Nebraska, the mother, aged 60, daughter, aged 30, and grandson, aged 4, were kil by lightning. Another grandson had his leg broken and his shoulder dislocated and will probably die. M. B. Hibbe, aged about 60, died from ex- citement, falling dead in one of the stores on Military street. The old Occldental hotel, now used as an opera house, was struck by lightning and somewhat damaged. Four large hay barns in the nelghborhood of the freight depot were completely wrecked. A canservative estimate of the damage places it at $100,000. There was little, If any, cyclone insurance. The Qamage to property west of Baxter Springs cannot be fully determined. It is reported that for many miles in the track of the storm that fences and barns were blown down and crops more or less de- stroved. The west part of Lyon township seems to have had a touch of perhaps the same twister that lit down on Baxter. LITTLE CHILD KILLED. It struck the farm and house of Thomas Shields of Lyon, demolishing his house and barns. Mrs. Shields and her two children ‘were in the building at the time the storm struck it. One of the children, a 2-year-old baby girl, was killed, the older child's leg ‘was broken and Mrs. Shields had her shoulder dislocated and s injured in her back and spine. She will die. One or two other farms in the immediate vicinity of Mr. Shields’ were damaged and fences and trees torn up. W. L. Archer was found dead on the Noolan farm in Sheridan township. He left MeCane yesterday afternoon about 4 o'clock, where he had been on business. It is sup- posed that he was drowned while crossing the ereek. Forty miners at work in mine No. 47 of the Kansas and Texas Coal company at Weir City had no knowledge of the storm until the mine was deluged with torrents of water from above. All had narrow escapes from drowning. Every mule in the mine w:s drowned. s The rain was the most violent ever known, resembling a cloudburst, and the entire country was flooded. Reports of furth fatalities seem almost certain when the roads are opened up. NEVERAL KANSAS TOWNS Pamp'ng Statton of the Ottawa Water Works Under Water. OTTAWA, Kan., July 6.—The water in the Marais des Cygnes river here is the highest known in thirty years. Forest park is flooded, the water having reached the platform of the tabernacle, submerging nearly all the tenting ground occupled at the rocent Chautauqua assembly. The race track is covered and the flood reaches to the Atchison, Topeka & Sauta Fe shope. It was up to the top of the abutments of the Santa Fe bridge this morning, but by 11 o'clock it had fallen two inches. The west bottoms are under water and a number of people living along the river swere compelled 1o move their house- hold goods. ‘The clty water works pumps steod In ten foet of water yesterday and were sbut down. The city fire engine was set to pumping water in the mains at 6 o'clock last night and continued til midnight, whea the water works pumps were started again and are still working under water. SALINA, Kav,, July 6.—A bridge gang on the Missouri Pacific, which arrived this even- ing fram Marquette, thirty miles southwest states that the Smoky Hill river at that place lins overflowed its banks and on the south sido extends mearly back to the bluffs, two miles distant. The water Is nearly to the second story of the houses nearest the river and some of the people have boen taken out in boats. The approaches to the Missourl Pacific bridge are washed away and the bridge itsell is newrly off the abutments. Nearly all the wagon bridges across the rlver west of here are swept away and the water s the Lighest ever known. The river has just commenced to riso here and It s apected before morning that it will be out family living nine miles FLOODED of its banks. The Unlonr Pacific succeeded in getting a train through to Ellis, but no far- ther. One humdred and feur tourists ticketod for Denver were sent out on a special last night to reach Denver via Manhattan and Omaha. —_— Clouaburst in VANDALIA, 1ML, July 6.—News reached here this evening that a cloudburst at High- land, Aifty miles west, did great damage. In many fields the water was deep enough to swim a horse. Hundreds of shocks of wheat ere destroyed, miles of fencing were washed away and live stock was drowned. Thousands of Acres of Graln Damaged. FARGO, N. D., July 6.—A storm last might extending from Anseimo, fifteen miles west of here, and from one to two miles wide, dam- aged 30,000 or 40,000 acres of grain, threw buildings from their foundations and deluged the country. Four inches of rain fell in a few hours. il GOOD CARD SPOILED BY SCRATC Lucky Dog Pulled Up to Let His Stable Mate Win the Hrighton. NEW YORK, July 6.—The good card that had been prepared for today's racing at Brighton Beach was utterly ruined by scratches, and while some of the withdraw- als were doubtless due to the heavy track, it was evident that there was considerable pudding. The feature of the day was the Brighton handicap, in which some of the best of the handicap horses were entered, but only three out of the seventeen started. Tacky Dog was the favorite. Lovedal of the same stable was the ¢ but he wis backed by a few knowing ones. Lucky Dog was full of running until they had turned into the stretch, when Walker did not try a yard after Lovedal caught him, and lét the outsider win, amid cries of *“Put him off” and vigorous hissing from the crowd, Summaries: First race, one mile: Gold Dollar @ to 1) won, Stonenell (1 to 3) second, Time: 1:50%.

Hart, on Sunderland, clalmed a foul, but Sunder: land was never near Fonschway. Never- theless the judges held to their decision.

P — Wire Workers Stri Extending, CLEVELAND, July 6.—The strike of the wire workers is assuming still more formida- ble propartions. Bighty galvanizers at the American Wire works struck today, making 1,200 men on a strike, and 1,500 more thrown out of employment thereby. The strikers claim that the 600 wire drawers of the Cleve- lanc Rolling Mill company will join them on Monday, but the cfficers of the new com- pany declare that they do not know of any such intention. It is claimed also that the yardmen, bundlers and laborers in the wire mills will enter the strike, e sty ¥ryan Ready to Come Home. CINCINNATIL, July 6.—Hon, W. J.

Indianapolls, §; Kansas City, 1, Minneapolis, 12; Grand Rapids, 11 LINCOLN, July 6.—(Special Telegram.)— Louis Napoleon Balsz kindly remembered his old friend Buck today by presenting him with & game, neatly wrapped in pink paper. It was in the first inning. The first two men up iere quickly made ready for the under- taker, but Nattress was too strong and inserted Kennedy's grounder Into the gloam- ing three feet above Writing Fluid's head. Van Buren got a base on balls and Balsz threw Sullivan’s high bounder wild to first. Then Buck plerced precinct A of the Sixth ward with one of Loule's slow ones for a homer, and four runs flowed in. In the next in- ning he gave David Belden Hill a base on balls. He promptly stole second and came in on a speerslong single. That was all, but it was enough. Buck set his pet gladiator, Clementina Kimerer, at the Hutchinson crowd, and he twirled winning balls. Three of the nine hits were scratches, and they were well scattered. The only time the Omahas pried open the plate was in the third, when Pace’s single, Miles' triple and Slagie’s push netted two runs. Balsz had to retire in the eighth, because of injuries re- ceived by Buck stepping on his right bloomer and contents in successfully endeavoring to catch him at second. Egan finished the game.

CORNELL ROWS ON TUESDAY Drawn Against Leander in the First Round of ths Henley Rogatta, CREW ALL IN GOOD SHAPE ONCE MORE Members Who Were Troubled with Malaria © Recovered and Are Taking to Work in Fino Style—Result of the Drawings, 1895, by Press Publishing Company.) July 6.—(New York World Cablegram—Special Telegram.)— Hager, born, Fennell and Louls, who have been especially suffering from malaria, the result of atmospheric changes, have practically recovered, and the crew for the grand cup, unless the unexpected should now occur, 1s arranged as follows: Roe (bow), Spillman, Hager, Fregborn, Fennell, Dyer, Louis and Hall (stroke) The selec- tion is chiefly the result of the boys' own deliberations. As thus composed the crew this morning rowed the full course in the splendid time of seven minutes and four seconds, the Leander crew under similar conditions of weather golng over it In seven minutes six and a halt seconds, and the Thames a little later in seven minutes, - teen seconds. The Trinity crew limited its efforts to a_ two-minute burst, while New college merely paddled. To the general public disappointment, the result of the draw, which took place this afternoon has been to pit Cornell against Leander in the first round. In this round Thames, with Berks, is drawn against Eton, with Bucks station; London with Berks sta- tion, against Trinity Hall, Cambridge, with Bucks, and Leander with Berks against Cornell with Bucks station. New College, Oxford, draws a bye. The Bucks station, as being more sheltered, is considered to afford a slight advantage. The first round will be rowed on Tuesday, Cornell rowing Leander at 3 o'clock, the second round on Wednesday, and the final on Thursday, the last day of the regatta. As possiblo results of the draw, It is clear that it Cornell beats Leander in {he first round they will most probably meet Trinity in the second round. As Trinity is almost certain to beat London, and it Cornell beats Trinity they will most likely have to contest the final with New College, who are expected to easily beat Thames, supposing, of course, that Thames beats .Eion, as anticipated. The Cornell boys are mostly afrald of Leander, while Courtney fears Trinity Hall. LONDON, July 6.—A reporter of the As- socinted press had an interview with Charles 1. Courtne coach of the Cornell crew He said: Ve may as well tell you the quth. Five of the men are sick, and X am discouraged. During the past few days all our prospects have scemed to vanish The boys are troubled with pains in their limbs and drowsiness, and the food they partake of does not seem to nourish them fager, who pulls No. 3, and Fennell, who pulls No. 5, are the worst sufferers in this connection,” The worst of It is that Fennell, ‘Who has been the life of the ing them jolly and lighthearted, is now sick and glum. 1 am sick myself, but I say nothing In order not to discouraie the boys. T attribute the trouble to the sudden change weather. Even Fred Colton, the coxswain, as bright o man as ever steered a boat, is suffering from depression. I have talked with several experts in boat racing regarding our condition, and they all say Henley is not a good place to train, and T am beginning to agree with them, The Cornell crew started practice at o'clock this morning, and pulled over the Course In 7 minutes and 4 1-5 seconds, an excellent showing. After this spin, Court- ney said to & correspondent of the Asso- clated press: “We did well enough this morning, but Hager, Fennell and Freeborn were completely done up at the end of the first half mile. I ask nothing more than the boys were all right, as they were ten days ago. Then we should be able to say to our friends in America that we are sure winners."” The impredsion prevafls among experts that the Cornell crew has been overtrained. crew, keep- in_ the VALKYRIE 1I SHOWS HER STUFK Cup Challenger Outsails Her tsritish Rivals in & Racn at Clyde. HUNTERS QUAY, July 6.—Valkyrie ITT, Allsa and Britannia started today in the regatta of the Royal Clyde Yacht club, with a fine southerly wind blowing. The first prize was £100, second prize £30. The course was over a total distance of about fifty miles, The time allowance granted by Val- kyrie to her competitors under the Tules of the Yacht Racing assoclation were: Aflsa, two minutes forty-nine seconds; Brit- annia, four minutes two seconds. Ailsa and Britannia were recalled for being over the line too soon. Valkyrie did splendidly in the beat to windward, and soon had a long lead on Adlsa, leaving Britannia down the firth on the opposite tack. It was noticed on all sides that the cup challenger sailed very fast before the wind. Roughly speak- ing, Valkyrie gained about nine “minutes, taking ‘into consideration the difference in times at the start, over Britannia in the first twenty-five miles of the course. Valkyrie finished at 4:31:10. The foillowing were the times at the finish of Valkyrie's competitors: Britannia, 4:49:36; Allsa, 4:50:57. Consequently Valkyrie won' by élghteen minutes twenty-six seconds actual time, and by fourteen minutes twenty-four seconds corrected time, deducting Britannia's time allowance. Valkyrie's trial today against Britannia and Ailsa is regarded as a falr one. There waus a steady breeze, but the wind was not too strong for the small jib topsails. An authority on yachting sald to the Assoclated press representative that Valkyrie would undoubtedly prove a very wonderful ves- sel in light weather. The form displayed today places her far in front of Vigilant. Lord Dunraven, who was abroad Valkyrie, in an interview' expressed himself as thor- oughly satisfied with Valkyrie's perform- ance. He said he did not know whether he would sail for America on Monday or not. Valkyrie may be fitted for the ocean voyage and slip away for America as soon as_ready. The 2)-raters started at 11 o'clock and crossed the line as follows: Dako 11:00:10; Fucharls, 11:00:15; Niagara, 11:00:22} Zinita, 11:01:03. Not long afer the start it was noticed that Zinita hoisted her protest flag, and though she continued in the race there was an exchange of signals between her and the commodore’s boat. Later the commodore _ signalled Niagara, and Mr. Gould's yacht gave up the race, from which it was assumed that Zinita's' protests re- ferred to her. Previous to thls Eucharis and Niagara had been sailing a very close race on the run up to the Powder buoy with their spinnakers to port. The 20-raters finished in the following times Rucharis, 3:40:60; Zinita, 8:41:55; Dakotah, 3:5 o4 HOLLYWOOD HANDICAP PIGEONSHOOT Twenty Experts Start in the Race for the Big Purse and Cop.

A young girl named Jordan, while crossing a stretch of wools, enroute to the house of a neighbor, was forcibly taken to an old deserted house in the mountains and re- peatedly assaulted by three young men, all recognized as tough citizens.

The girl was discovered some time later by a searching party and recovered suffi- ciently to tell the names of her assailants. She died later and the enraged people are hunting the murderers, who escaped to the mountains. d Lynch- & of Consumpiion.

The remarkable improvement in the net earnings of the Northern Pacific made it practically impossible to carry out the plan to turn the road over to the Hill interests. An official of the Northern Pacific said the road had earned $6,000,000 and there was a good promise of $7,000,000 for the ensuing year. All that Mr. Hill ofered to guarantee fn the way of Inter- est on old and new bonds was about $5,500,- 000. Such a guaranty is now &hown by the ncreased earnings of the road to bo of no value and the bondholders have no longer any motive to accept Mr. Hill's proposition. 1t is stated that a reorganization committee will be soon constituted by the Joint action of tha preferred stockholders and the junior bond- holders. The Northern Paclfic s now earning the full interest on its first and second mort- gage bonds and a considerable surplus to go to the credit of the junior sccurities.
