The house was picked up and carried by the storm for more than a block, “inally the woman was landed on one side o the street and the house on the other.

The cable and trolley cars in Harl blocked for hours by fallen tre nd tele graph poles. Several of the big thorough fares were made fmpassible for traff owing to the network of fallen wir and other obstructions that had been made by the wind and hail. The florists on the west side of the city and in the annexed district were the greatest sufferers, losing nearly all their growing plants and their conservatories being badly wrecked. CHERRY HILL WIPED OU HACKENSACK, N. J., July 13 storm swept over this section this doing great damage. At Cherry H a small village a few miles from here, it developed eyelonie fury, attended by the demolition of the village and a number of deaths, Cherry Hill received the full sweep of the wind ar within a minute after the storm broke twenty-seven houses, nearly the entire num ber in the village, were wrecked. The cyclone made a clean path thr h the center of the ce, carrying everything before it. Houses ere unroofed and thrown down. Trees were uprooted and the crops in the flells leveled to the ground. At the present tim: it is known that five were killed, and the injured are numbered by the score, many, it is believed, fatally The dead are: CONRAD FREIDERMANN, hotel Keeper. THREE UNKNOWN LABORERS. A CHILD OF WILLIAM AHRENS. The storm came from the northwest, her- alded by great banks of clouds and a stirring breeze. The atmosphere was warm for a time, and then cold, and then after a second rush of warmth caime the cyclone, carrying death and destruction in its course. The storm center was about 300 feet in width and the strip over which It passed is a mass of ruin. Not a building was spared Those that were not completely demolished were unroofed or moved from their foundations. Great amounts of wreckag were carried through the air by the gale, adding to the destruction. The depot, standing between the tracks of the New York & New Jersey railroad, was demolished. The wind first took the roof and landed it 100 feet away. Then the wall fell. The station agent was taken from the ruins later, badly injured. The freight depot was also wrecked and the blg platform carried away. WENT BACK FOR HIS MONEY. Opposite the depot was the hotel of the vil lage, kept by Conrad Dorman. In the hotel at the time, besides the proprietor, were his wife and three children. Just as the stol broke he hurried them into the street, ing the buflding was unsafe. Then h turned to secure some money and had reached the door to the strect when the whirlwind struck him. He was caught up and hurled fifteen or twenty feet to the ground. As he lay there the building top pled over on him, crushing him to death One of his boys was injured by the falling timbers, The Infant of the Ahrens family was lying in a ecrib when the crash came. The house was unroofed and a flying stick struck the child in the head, tearing off one of th cars as clean as though severed by a sur. geon's knife and causing death. When the husband, who is a New York business man returned the sun was shining brightly and his wife was sitting amid the ruins with the body of her dead child in her arms. Two of the Polish laborers who were Killed took shelter in a barn, which was carried away by the storm. Half an hour later the mangled bodies were dragged from the ruins. The third Pole killed met his fate In a simillar way. Alexander Jones, the village blacksmith, was buried beneath the timbors of his shop. He was taken out badly bruised and sent to the hospital. It is not thought he will recover. His house, which was located near his shop, was carried along the ground until it struck a tree, when it went to pleces. Edward C. Chimock was seriously, If not fatally, injured by the fall of his barn. The cyclone went through the valley rapidly and ten minutes after the first gust of wind gave indication of the coming storm the sun was shining. Those who had a chance to escape from its fury fled to the flelds and huddled together there under the terrific storm of hail. At the hamlet of Falrmou from Cherry Hill, six down and a doren persons .injured. As yet no fatalities have been reported. storm did no great damage in Hackensack The news of the disaster at Cherry Hill was brought here and all the available physicians in town started at once for the scene. Gov- ernor Wertz has been asked to send tents to the homeless. The storm avenu em were A terrific afternoon Te- t, a few miles houses were blown swept from Cherry Hill Andercliffe. There its effects were not disastrous, for it merely grazed the village. Many houses were unroofed and tre up. Somersville felt a corner of it storm swept through the Rockaway stripping the fruit trees. in ‘that section cannot be estimated. In Somerset county the grain crop is flattened and will probably prove a total loss. Plain- fleld caught a portion of the storm at 3:15, Skylights, conservatories and green houses were battered in by the hall. The damage in_ Plainfield will amount to thousands of dollars ONE KILLED AT UNION COURSE WOODHAVEN, L. I, July 13.—Wosd- haven and Union Cours: suffered almost as much as did Cherry Hill, N. J. Houses were unroofed and blown down. Only one fatality so far has been reported and sixteen are injured. The storm at these points was like that of Cherry Hill, a whirlwind. Houses were blown down and trees uprooted. The tract over which it swept was a mile long by an_eighth of a mile wide h> dwellings of Henry Wells and William Smith on Shaw avenue, Union Course, were lifted from their foundations and turned completely over. Harry Smith's hotel at Union Course station was badly wrecked Union Course school house, a brick building was blown down. The wagon and blacksmith shop of Frank Shif:r on the Rockaway road was demolished and twenty wagons in the shop were destroyed. Mrs? Jennie Petriquan who lived at Union Course with her husband and mother, left her house just as the storm swept along.

Amphitrite Guns ehaved Well, WASHINGTON, July 13.—The double tur- reted monitor Amphitrite has just returned to Hampton Roads after a trial of her great guns at sea. She was sent out with Instruc- tions to fire the big ten-inch guns direct'y across her decks, with full service charges the purpose being to settle a doubt as to whether this could be done safely and without injury to the decks from the blast of the guns. A telegram to the Navy department from the commander of the vessel today con- tained the gratifying information that this had been done with satisfactory results, hence there Is no longer any doubt as to the effi- ciency of this battery as now placed. Waiting on tndian Elections, WASHINGTON, July 13.—General Arm strong of the Dawes commission is in the city for a short time before returning to the Indian territory to resume work with the commission. He says it is not possible to do much until after the tribal elections, whish will be held early in August.

VIEW OF THE Mineral and Agricuitural Product Will Ex- ceed Any Former Years, NEW YORK, July 13.—James McNaught of the Northern Pacific, who has just re- turned from a ‘rip through the northwest, finds that the mineral and agricultural pro- ductlons of this year promise to exceed in value those of any recent year. The carn- ings of the Northern Pacific for the last fis- I year, he says, were 20 per cent better than they were for the flscal year ending June 80, 1894, and for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1896, will be 20 per cent better than the last year. Mr. McNaught expressed some annoyance at the publication alleged to have been made in his authority that the second, third and consolidated mortgage bonds of the Northern Pacific were illegally issued and consequently invalid. “I have,” said he, “never entertained or expressed any such opinion. 1 have no doubt whatever that all of the Northern Pacific outstanding mortgage bonds were legally fssued and are valid llens upon the company’s property.” Alnskan Supply Steamer Wree' ed.

As evidence of the activity of the ieaders of the fray it may be mentioned that Sir William Vernon Harcourt, who was chancellor of the exchequer in th Rosebery cabinet, is booked to address thre different meetiugs in Derbyshire on Monday @ most sensational feature of the cam- paign is the charge which Mr. Healy made | agaiust the Irish parliamentary party at th national convention at Omagh at Tyrone last Wednesday. The convention was called to hoose candidates for the election of Tyrone | and Mr. Healy, amid at excitement, ac- | cused Mr. Johin Dillon of selling Tyrcne to the English party speclal.y cabled to | the Assoclated pr Heay read a letter from Mr. Edward Blake to Privy Councillc Dickson, informing him that the nationalist | federation would be unable in future to sub dize North and South Tyrcne or North and South Londonderry, which he asked should ba subsi henceforth in the sum of £200 | yeari; liberals. The then government whip, Thomas Ellis, consented to this on the understanding that scats were to be consid cred liberal and not home rule seats. Nat v the reading of this letter spread con tion among the delegates, who shouted bid! £0ld!” When Mr. Dillon finally suc- ceeded in making Wimself heard he said What you state is an infamous and calum nious You are a traitor. You read a pri- vate letter in public.” This caused further uproar and finally the non-scctarian candi dates were adopted by the convention. e affalr has not only caused great com- motion and considerable irritation in the ranks of the McCarthyites, but it has spread cor sternation among the liberals, as the conser vatives immediately seized upon the inci dent and are making use of it during the present campaign for all it {s worth. The national leaders instantly gra danger of the affair and Messrs and Blake both telegraphed emphat of the charge. Mr. McCarthy, who promised to make a full statement on the subject, strongly condemned the making of what he classed as baseless charges at such a crisis, nd Mr. Blake, who was presiding at the con vention at Cork, dealt with the ma at_length, declaring the matter had not a particle of foundation in truth. But he ad- ded, in explanation, that Mr. Ellis, tho lib ral whip, was applied to to bear the ex- penses of the registration work of the four ats representing North and South Tyrone and North and South Londonderry, which ex pense amounts to £200 each annually. This money, however, it was further explained S not to pass through the hands of the na- tionalists. NATIONALISTS NOT SATISFIED, Mr. Ellis gave much the the affair, but of course newspapers declare that planations. The Tim marks: “It does not matter whether the money promised was nominally to go for registration purposes or otherwise. In any case it relieved the impoverished treasury of the federation and permitted so muct hard cash to be diverted to another destina- tion. The bargain was simple. The radicai whips found the money and the members of the nationalist party, under orders from the Parnellite wire pullers, were to find the votes. The end of the incident is not yet come and the liberals rightly regard the mat- ter seriously when, as Mr. Ellis declares, the torles are scattering lea through ~ the country in which they hint that the payment for Irish seats was not in money taken from the party fund but drawn from the national exchequer in order to enable lazy Irishmen to live in luxury.” Also according to the Times it is stated that four Roman Catholic archbishops were appealed to the McCarthyites to hold a conference and arbitrate In the dispute mong Irishmen and that Arhbishop Croke of Cassell replied that it was inconvenient for him to act. In addition, Archblshop Walsh of Dublin is said to have emphatically re fused to sit in such a conference, as he ha offered several times to mediate and was only snubbed for his pains. Finally it is stated that Archbishop Togue of Armagh, the primate of all Ireland and Archbishop m were willing to act, but in view of the re plies of Archbishops Croke and Walsh the McCarthyite party abandoned the project The queen is taking a keen interest in the elections and will be supplied with all the results over a special wire run to Windsor castle from London, 3W WOMAN FINDS LITTLE FAVOR. According to Vanity Fair, the queen has expressed a strong opinion regarding the so- called ‘“new woman,” and especially as t the style of her dress. The queen, it is added, s strongly opposed to the “advanced novel,” and remarked recently to one of her entourage that it was a great public tha was in a mood to buy such books, and that it there were no purchasing public, the pens would cease to write such matter. Much chagrin was caused at Southampton by the report that the United s cruiser Columbia was serlously strained when she was placed in dry dcck there for the pur- pose of cleaning and painting her. The vague statements made gave the idea that the affair was greatly due to the negligence of the management of the dock and this impression has not been dispelled.

It is announced that special attention will be given the mount- ing of plays produced during his stay. The only plays in which the English actor will appear are “Don Quixote” and a story of Waterloo. Although the concert, which was given at Henley by the Cornell Glee club, did not draw a large audience during the regatta week, the club has won high opinions at th numerous soctal functions where its members have appeared, and this is due to their modest gentlemanly deportment, and the era of American glee club concerts will henceforth | become a standard feature of London enter- tainment George Alexander's present revival of the “Idler' is to be the last of his current seas:n at the St. James.

Joseph Cook of Boston was In- vited to speak and entered upon a personal criticism of President Cley with misrepresenting and Ha an affairs. He was interrupted by Minis ter Willis, who presided, and after a cross fire of charge and retort left the amid silence. His a is looked upon as indiscreet. Independence Park pavilion was more than crowded for the literary exercises scheduled for 11 o'clock, with Mr. Willis the American minister, presiding, He was presented by George W. Smith, chairman of the general committee. This was t 11:30. There was a wait for President Dole.

In opening Mr. Willis gracefully gave uttoranc to patriotic sentiments and was applauded An invocation was offered by Rey. D, P Biernfe. Al joined in singing, the America choir leading. In complimentary terms Mr Willis introduced Mr. Cook, wh had for his subject “The = Repub- lics of the Tropics.” He said nothing of th Fourth of Ju He congratulated all that there was no color or slavery line here. Th speaker then went into an oration on south ern republics as upheld by what he called northern principles. Coming quickly to Ha wail, Mr. Cook entered upon almost a direct criticism of the Cleveland administration, ar raigning it for misrepresentations d say ng that he was making some corrections. Here Mr. Willis protested on the ground that the occasion was not one for partisan speech. He was greeted with storms of ap- plause. Mr. Cook, considerabl a bill of particulars, dec customed to wearing gag. Mr. Willis replied that the contracted senti- ment from a Boston enyironment was not broad enough for an American celebration in Hawail, Mr. Cook said Boston had a good deal tc do_with achieving American independence. Mr. Willis said this was granted, and that all were proud of it. The lecturer quickly marks on annexation. He bade goodby to Minister Willis and Dr. MacArthur and’ left the hall amidst silence, clearly mad through and through. The exchange of words created remend: excitement among those present and when the Miowera satled t was the one topie onversation. After the exercises many citizens advanced to *hake hands with the American minister. He was given an ovation. The levee lasted over half an hour Some at first thought there was rather too much feeling shown by the audience against Cook, but he had invited the rc buke both from the American minister and those assembled. Mr. Cook was regarded ical. He raised himself to his t pinnacle and did not speak of the Fourth of July at all, but launched Into an argument on the Hawaiian question and an wrealgnment of Mr. Cleveland’s, administra- ion. The oration of the day was delivered by Mr. Dole. It was an able speech, full of enuine Americanisn One sentiment was This is the great day set apart for noble purposes than twisting the British lion’s ail or making the eagle scream.
