2 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, MAY 31, 1896. SILVER MEN IN BLUE GRASS STATE Gain Victories During the Democratic Primaries in Kentucky. FIGHTS FOR DELEGATES Some Lively Times in Several Conventions in D.fferent Counties. CARLISLE IS NOT INDORSED. Resolutions Approving the Work of the Administration Are Promptly Turned Down. LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 30.—Free sil- ver carried the State of Kentucky to-day in the Democratic county primaries by a good mejority. The conventions were called to select delegates to the Demo- cratic district conventions, which meet at Lexington June 3. Wherever free silver was indorsed resolutions were adopted de- claring United States Senator Joseph Blackburn to be the choice for Democratic nominee for re-election as United States Senatar. Many counties refuse to indorse Carlisle for the Presidency and turned down reso- lutions "approving the work of the Demo- cratic National administracdion. In Louis- ville, the center of the sound-money dis- trict, a most bitter contest was waged, Eight district: conventions were held in the city. That of the Sixth and Seventh wards was almost a riot. In these two wards live the rich business men, manufacturers and bankers. The free-silver men were under the leadership of Captain Jim Williams, who distin- guished himself as one of Jack Chinn’s assistants at Frankfort last winter. ‘Williams attempted to start the conven- tion going before the arrival of District Chairman Little Buchanan and was thrown from the stage by Harry McDon- ald, a burly architect. Mr. Buchanan bad to take the chair by force. A gang of rowdies from the river made their pres- ence felt, but were awed by the large num- ber of well-dressed men on the other side. The silver men then went out and held a convention of their own. The regular conventions of Louisville and Jefferson County declared for the gold standard. The silver men held separate conventions in five city districts and will make a con- test at Lexington. ‘Wherever sound money won over the State the free silver leaders held separate conventions, their policy being to secure grounds for a contest before the State con- vention. The county of Jefferson, outside of Louis- ville, was captured for sound money by the arrival of a special train from this city bearing all citizens of that section who do business in this city. Out of sixty-nine counties heard from forty-nine counties with a vote of 363 declare for the 16 to 1 idea, and thirteen counties, with a vote of 196, put themselves on record for ‘‘sound money.” Bix counties with a total of seventy votes have contested delegations, and one county, Campbell, with twenty- one votes, is instructed, There are 910 votes in the convention. Ten out of the eleven congressional dis- .tricts have gone for free silver. The Fifth District (Louisyille and Jefferson County) is the only district sending a sound-money delegation, and many of these are likely to ‘be thrown out, owing to the free-silver contests.

Additional unknown deada: Three un- known men from the Dolphin found at the foot of Washington avenue. Ed App of Chicage arrived in the city to-day and proceeded immediately to the ruins at Seventh and Rutger in search of his parents. He was informed that they had been buried there during the storm, The,street departmsnt has a iarge force of men at this point cleaning the rubbish in order to make traffic possible. About twenty-five men are working on the ruins of the demolished tenement houses. It is ceriain that there are more bodies under the ruins. Rutland Arbuckle, an employe of the Vandalia carshops, is dying to-night at his home on West Morgan street. He had an awful experience Wednesday night. He was in the Vandalia carshops, East St. Louis, when the building was struck, and a heavy beam falling in killed two men and struck Arbuckle. Four ribs and a leg were broken. In that condition, amid the fury of the storm, he crawled to the east appoach of the Eads bridge. Across this structure he crawled in a manner miracu- lous, and managed to reach a drugstore at Pendleton and Olive streets, five miles from the starting point. There he fainted and was placed on a stretcher and carried | home. Reports of loss of life at the City Hos- pital were greatly exaggerated. * It is pos- sible that four or five bodies are yet in the ruins of that institution. A corps of fire- men is making a systematic search of the ruins. Superintendent Dr. Otto Sutter, who ought to know, does not believe that more than five will be taken from the de- molished building. How the patients es- caped is 2 miracle. Although a liberal es- timate places the number of missing at fifty, Dr. Sutter thinks most of them ran away and are still alive. It is a hard mat- ter to get a correct list of the missing. Records were destroyed and new histories will have to be made for every patient. There is still a probability that some of the 300 employes of the St. Louis Refriger- ator and Wooden-Gutter Company, 1200 South Second street, are in the ruins of that firm’s immense plant. The loss of the company will be at least $175,000. Four schoolgirls are reported buried be- neath the ruins of Soulard Market. They are said to have been passing the market when it blew over. No search of the ruins is being made. TUp to 9 o’clock to-night the relief com- mittees report that $151,000 has been sub- scribed toward a fund for alleviating the distress of the tornado victims in St. Louis, The condition of affairs in East 8t. Louis is growing alarming. The residents of that territory located near the river and known locally as the ‘‘island” are facing starvation. There is little to eat and no money with which to purchase it. There is only one store in that section that was not totally destroyed by the storm. Here bread and cheese are the only things on sale. Bread is 10 and 15 cents a loaf. The storm claimed four more victims to- day in East 8t. Louis. They were William ‘Welsh, Charles Collis, Christiana Wind- house and Henry Vitz. All of them died at St. Mary’s Hospital, where they were taken Thursday morrfing. Mrs. Anna Hennessy, William Goodwin and a man named Angel are hourly ex- pected to die at the same institution. No more bodies were taken from the “island” during the past twenty-four hours, and the work of searching for the supposed dead in the ruins has been practically sus- pended on account of the much more urgent need of relieving the suffering of the injured, feeding the hungry and af- fording shelter to the homeless. Each of the three local undertaking establishments buried about ten bodies to-day. Hearse horses were not unhitched. The roads leading to St. Peter’s, St. Henry’s, Cal- vary, Mount Carmel and the city cemete- ries grew dusty with the passage of fu- neral corteges this afternoon. A large number of militia tonts expected from Springfield will arrive shortly. This will go a long way toward furnishing shelter for the homeless. They will be pitched on convenient vacant lots and will bring the sufferers together in a form that will render their relief more easily effected. The members of the executive or relief committee and the Woman's Relief Corps are working like beavers. People on the “island’’ are sleeping, the majority of them, in the open street. The militia and police together furnish little protection against vandals, and they are guarding their residences by might and searching for their belongings by day. Out of the many families rendered homeless some 209 have found shelter in freightcars. These are the latest summaries corrected to midnight: Known dead in St. Louis 187, unknown dead in St. Louis 11, fatally injured in Bt. Louis 20, missing in St. Louis 60; known dead in East St. Lonis 145, unknown dead in East St. Louis 5, fa- tally injured in East St. Lounis 3. Total fa- talities 427. Injured in St. Louis (estimated) 800; in- jured in East 8t. Louis (estimated) 350. 5 —_— CXCLONE AND CLOUDBURST. Twenty-Five Lives Lost in a Fresh Mia- souri Disaster. SENECA, Mo., May 30.—At least twen- ty-five lives lost is the estimate of the fa- talities resuiting from a cyclone ana cloud- burst which struck this place at 7 o’clock last night. The same number of buildings were wrecked and a dozen swept from their foundations by the deluge. Among the dead whose bodies have not yet been recovered are the following: J. T. Williams and five members of his fam- ily, Anderson family of five, Mrs. Harry Robinson and child, Carl Schmidt and family of four, Harry White and wife, Mrs Dehler and three children, four known persons who were visiting here, H. An- dreas and family of four. All the stores are flooded and the iron bridge across Lost Creek was carried away by tlood and wind. The storm also visited Neosho, where V. 8. Wood was killed, the only victim. Every stream in the surrounding country is out of its banks and several bridges on the St. Louis and San Francisco road were swept away in the torrents. All the streams in Southwestern Missouri had been filled to their capacity, and this sud- den surplus will rain thousands of acres of grain. Many farmhouses are reported blown over and water covers a vast area of land. \ BRIGHTON, Coro., May 30.—A severe windstorm followed by hajl and rain and amounting dlmost to a’ hurricane, de- scended upon the coun north of this city, shortly after 4 o’clock this afternoon. ‘Three inches of hail descended in almost ‘as many minutes. Crops in the vicinity were almost entirely destroyed. Several section men were injured north of town. Chimneys were blown off farmhouses and panes of glass were broken. Cattle on the plains about this city suffered awfully. The hail which fell was as large as hen’s eggs and the noise during the storm deaf- ening. ) CHEYENNE, Wvo., May 30.—A sudden storm came up this afternoon and a per- fect deluge of waterfell. This was followed by hail and thunder and lightning. The raiiroad between this town and Orange Junction has been washed away. PRESBYTERIANS ADJOURN. They Denounce the Unspeakable Turk and the Use of Public Money for Sec- tarian Purposes. SARATOGA, N. Y., May 30.—The Gen- eral Assembly of the Presbyterian church, which has been in session here for three weeks concluded its labors this afternoon and adjourned sine die. The New York Presbytery case was con- sidered and a report by the judicial com- mittee, confirnting its deliverance of 1895 on the subject and recommending the ap- pointing of a committee of five to prepare a constitutional rule regulating the power of general assemblies and presbyteries, to superintend the education and care of can- didates for the ministry, to be reported to the next General Assembly, was adopted. A third resolution Dnylnibrthe epeedy extinction of the Turkish empire was adopted, as was one against the appro- priation of public moneys for sectarian urposes. l’T e subject of bigamous marriages and ‘the foreign missionary churches was raised to-day on a resolution offered in answer to an overture from the Utah Pres- bytery forbidding the recognition of dual marriages in India and China. After routine business the assembly ad- journed sine die. Disasters Cause a Failure, ST. LOUIS, Mo., May 30.—The United Elevator Company of this city was placed in the hands of a receiver to-day. The company controls ten elevators along the river front here, on both shores, and is capitalized at $2,000,000. For over a year the concern has been losing money. ‘Wednesday night's disaster effectually o0t the % M:’B‘h&&?xfl 'doft?oy:lz vators were T with a total 16”'- of &I‘,m OVER A STRAIGHT BUT LONG COURSE Ninety-Six Wheelmen Enter Denver’s Annual Road Race. DEAN IS THE WINNER. His Maiden Contest, and the Riders Are Surprised by the Perfornrance. HACHENBERGER'S FAST TIME. Easily Defeats Hughes, Who Recently ‘Won Some World’s Records in Colorado. DENVER, Coro., May 30.—The annual road race on the twenty-five-mile straignt- away Brightor road was won by John P. Dean,- Denver Wheel Club, in 1:09:43, starting with a handicap of six minutes. The time prize was won by O. B. Hachen- berger, Arapahoe Wheel Club, scratch man, in 1:06:53. He finished twenty-sixth. M, M. Kreutz won second time in 1:08:08, and E. Tyler Smith third in 1:08:09. Dean, the winner, rode to-day his first race, though he bas been pacing A. B. Hughes on the quad for some time. Heis 20 years of age and a well-built athlete. Hachenberger is the phenomenal rider of last year’s Lator day road race over the same course, who won both time and place and made a world’s revord of 1:04:47. Owing to rains last night and this morn- ing the track was slow, and especially so for the first seven miles. The weather was cloudy and cool. Great interest was taken in this road race, and the training had been thor- ough. All of the ninety-six men to start finished the course, nine making the dis- tance under 1:10 and fifty under 1:15. Al- though Huchenberger was generally ex- pected to win the time prize, the winning man was not easily picked out in advance. Especial interest was taken in the rivalry existing between A. B. Hughes, who re- cently won some world’s records on the Denver Wheel Club’s track, and Hachen- berger. Hughes had a handicap of one minute, but ended forty-eighth in 1:09:35. It isasserted that Hachenberger did not try to ride fast after he had beaten his ri- val, A. B. Hughes, but paced and managed some of his club associates along the route. Stephen McGinnity, a deaf mute, having a handicap of eight minutes, led the pro- cession past Brighton by a full haif mile, and was riding like .a demon, but a fall threw him back to fourth place. His time was 1:12:26 The first ten men to cross the tape were J. P. Dean, P. M. Ritchey, Ben Wright, Stephen McGinnity, E. R. Pynchon, G. 8. Dobbins, J. H. Spence, Guy Caay, E. J. Merriman and H. Roller. There were no serious accidents, and the best of order was observed both at the start and at the finish. The excursion trains carried to the scene 2500 spectators, e R s RUN FOR RICH STAKES.

LINCOLN, NEse., May 30.—Lincoln's new bicycle track, which promises to be- come famous for State meets, was opened to-day. Crack riders from Nebraska, Kansas and other States were present and the short distance events were character- ized by very fast going. In the fourth event a collision occurred betwcen G. A. Maxwell of Winfield. Kans., and the pac- ing tandem ridden by local men. After a protracted wrangle, the race was de- clared no contest, and, by way of substitu. tion, Maxwell ran against the State record by a tendem and made the half mile in 1:00 1-5, winning an extra prize of $50 and lowering Nebraska's record by one- fifth of a second.

The effect was grand and soul-stirring. Later in the day 700 heads of villages were given a banquet at the Petroffsky palace. The air was beautiful throughout the day. The great Hodynsky plain, on which Napoleon massed his troops before marching into the city of Moscow is flanked on the sides by the exhibition buildings and the Moscow race course, and extends indefinitely into the country. Uvon it besides the multitude who en- joyed the hospitality of the Czar iu eating, drinking and indulging in all sorts of games and witnessing various perform- ances, was encamped a vast army of sol- diers, consisting of eizhty-three battalions of infantry, thirty squadrous of cavalry, seven $otniasof Cossacks and fourteen bat- teries of artillery, which the Emperor will review on June 7, the last day of the fes- tivities. The part of the plain devoted to the festivities was directly in front of the pal- ace. This wide, grass-covered space was inclosed with Venetian masts hung with bunting, flagsand shields bearing the arms of the various cities and provinces of Rus- sia, and within were booths, tables, open- air theaters, merry-go-rounds, circuses and swings almost innumerable. Surrounding these were hundreds of wooden booths filled witn food, such as bread, cake, sausages, meat pies and caviar. In each booth was an immense cask of malt liquor or mead, the food and drink being free to all who chose to come and partake of it. Throughout the night there was a con- stant stream of persons making their way to the plain, in order to be among the first when the food and presents should be ready for distribution, and so dense a mass ?l humnm_ty as had gathered” there, even in the earlier hours of the morning, was never witnessed in Russia, : 5 S L CAUSE OF THE DISASTER. Wild Scrambdles ‘Followed the Throwing of Gifts Into the Crowd. MOSCOW, Russta, May 30.—The dis- aster has greatly moved the entire oity and many groups gather in the streets and in the doorways of the houses discussing the sad affair and listening to the stories related by eye witnesses. Some persons declare that the blame for the accident belongs to the police, who failed to arrive on the ground sufficiently early to obtain control of the assembled crowds. Comparatively few police officers were on the Hodynsky plain at6o’clock this morning, at about which time the disaster occurred. There were then 200,000 persons | present. About 1000 attendants prepared to dis- pense the gifts to the populace, but find- ing themselves unable to distribute the refreshments and souvenirs fast enough by handing them to the applicantsthey threw the memorial cups and packets of food into the crowds, and this brought on the scramble that resulted so fatally. A hollow in the ground at the point where the greatest crash occurred formed a veritable death-trap for hundreds of | those who Lad started out in the early morning anticipating a day’s enjoyment, Among the bodies a few have been fouad without clothing, indicating they were of the poorest class. In one heap of the dead were found the bodies of two young ladies attired in fine clothes and wearing dia- monds and turquoise rings. Several remarkable escapes are recorded. In one instance a father and mother were killed, while their four-year-old son, whom they had taken with them to the plain, was rescued none the worse physically for his experience. It was announced this evening that the Czar will defray the expenses of the funerals of all the victims of the accident. “BRICK” POMEKOXY DEAD, Was Well Known As a Newspaper Man in Several States.
