In this city and vicinity considerable amage to property has been done, one life has been lost and shipping is par- lyzed. e storm commenced at an early hour lence. At 9:30 o'clock to-night the wind was blowing a living gale, the veloeity of gusts exceeding 10 miles an hour, while the average velocity was sixty miles. The damage in the city is con- fined principally t6 broken windows, sign [ ards and old buildings. Whether or t the shipping in the lower harbor has fI. d will not be known until morning. ports have yet been received, and is probable all the vessels at’anchor are safely moored. Five vessels were reported in the offing a day or two ago, but it is expected they will ride out the gale. The one victim of the storm, Captain ’pecullnr Twenty- manner. He was walking along 1 fifth street, between Commercial and Ex- chauge, when a stretch of sidewalk 100 feet in length was completely overturned by the wind. Roustoff was on the por- tion that was blown over and was cruched beneath it. Within a few moments his body was recovered from the debris, but life was extinct. Roustoff was with two companions, but the other men escaped with slight’ injuries. Roustoff was 3 years of age and had been in the employ of the Lighthouse De- partment. Of late he had been working for Hale & Kern, and was on_his way | home from the sunken bark Henrlette when he was killed. Indications are that a severe thunder storm will folloy the present gale, and it is improbable that shipping will be re- sumed within ten days. BB LS STREAMS ARE RISING.

HELENA, Mont,, Feb. 15.—Henry Thompson, 'said to haye been the most desperate character in Montana, was shot and killed this morning at Saco by Eddie Shufelt in the Valley saloon, owned by Duffy & Shufelt. The two men had a quarrel over a woman named Georgia Grant. Thompson, better known as “Long Henrg," came to town with $250 last night the woman heard of it and immediately left Shufelt. © Her action threw the latter into a rage. He abused the woman and “Long Henry" struck him in the face. As the latter left the saloon |. with the woman he said_to the crowd: “Look out for me when I come back; 1 will eome a-shooting.” Thompson returned in about ten min- utes and Shufelt shot him in the temple with a rifle. As he fell to the floor Shu- felt leaned over the bar and sent four more bullets into the fallen man’'s stom- ac:’. Shufelt then surrendered to the police. “Long Henry” was a dead shot and had killed several men. of the Curry gang. His most notable shooting scrape was the killing of Ed Starr, the famous Wyoming cattle rustler and desperado, in 1i898. Shufelt is the youngest brother of Henry Shufelt, who was shot .and killed near Williston, N. D., a few years ago by the editor of the local paper. .

ST, PETERSBURG, Feb. 15.—The latest news recefved here from Shamaka con- firms the appalling character of the earth- quake at the place, and adds that 300 corpses Have already been taken out of the ruins.

Says Hypnotist Was Assisted by Wife and Male Accomplice. £uit to Recover Diamonds and Jew- elry Causes Arrest of Medium and Throws Some Light on Mystery. Sensational charges against Charles B. Brockway, trance medium, clairvoyant, hypnotist and “any old thing to make money,” were made Friday afternoon at Judge Maguire’s office in the depositions of A. W. A. Stone and wife, who were made co-defendants in the suit of Mrs. L. J. Harris to recover $3000 worth of dia- monds and jewelry taken from her on the night of January 8, when she and Brock- way were held up on the Ingleside road. In the deposition made by Stone, who was a former partner of Brockway, it is charged that the latter, his wife, Mrs. Laura E. Brockway, and an accomplice named Campbell formulated and carried out a clever plot which resulted in Brock- way and Mrs. Harris being held up by a “highwayman' and relieved of all the Yaluables they had on their persons.’ The ‘“fake” highwayman, so the story goes, relieved Brockway of $400 in money sim- Dly as a ruse to allay the suspicions of Mrs. Harrls, his companion on the drive, “iho lost her valuable diamonds and jew- elry. Mr, and Mrs, Stone, having removed an unfounded suspicion that they were concerned in the plot, were released on an order issued by Judge Kerrigan with- out being subjected to the_ indignity of being taken to the County Jail. Brockway was picked up on Mason street vesterday morning by Deputy Sheriff Hollingsworth and taken to the County Jail, where he will remain until he puts up a sufficicnt bond to insure his appearance 1a the suit against him for the recovery of the diamonds, Planned the Robbery Himself. The stories told by those who will be summoned as witnesses in the case, coupled with Brockway's shady reputa- tion and the conflicting statements of the robbery which he made to the police at the time it occurred, bear out the state- ments that he himself planned the hold- up. Judge Magulre and everybody interested in the suit have maintained a discreet si- lence as to the nature of the testimony given by Stone, his wife and other wit- Nesses who were examined at the secret hearing held in the attorney’s office Fri- day, but last night the details leaked out. “On the night of the robbery,” so the deposition of Stone runs, “Brockway and Mrs, Harris left the Salisbury boarding- house, at the corner of Hyde and. Eddy treets, together. They went out to take | the Union Iron Works, was struck on the | : drive and Mrs. Bro’ékvay was in_the ' head by a trip hammer while at work | house at the time they left. Shortly after- ! ward Mrs. Brockway came into a room where Mrs. Stone was working and picked - up an old white fedora hat. She seemed excited and when asked what she In-, tended to do with a man's hat replied | that she wanted it simply to carry out a little joke. Shortly before Brockway and Mrs. Harris returned and told the story of having been held up Mrs. Brock- way and Campbell came back to the boarding-house, Mrs. Brockway threw the hat away and when found later it crushed and pushed into a pocket.” Detective Disbelieved Brockway. ‘When Brockway reported the robbery to the Mission police he gave the name of Dr. Harrington. Later the news of the holdup reached the ‘‘upper office,” and Captain Seymour detailed Detective Fitz- gerald on the case. The detective visited the boarding-house where Brockway lived and when he asked to see Dr. Harrington he was informed that nobody bearing that name lived there. Brockway was finally discovered by the detective, who disbe- lieved his story from the outset.. Nothing definite could be proven against him, however. The olice_ arrested a laboring man named John Kelly, who vehemently pro- tested his innocence. Brockway sought to divert suspicion from himself by iden- tifying Kelly as the man who held up him and Mrs, Harris. The hypnotist is alleged to have exerted his powers over Mrs. Harris, and under a spell she, too, identi- fied Kelly. She was not as positive, however, about Kelly being the man as was Brockway, and later, upon reflection, Mrs. Harris re- fused to prosecute him. Captain Seymour liberated Kelly, who had simply wandered into the vicinity of the hold-up while on a spree. The chief o ‘ | bore levidences of having been hastily | IS u thnl l-iN G } e ; | | of detectives told Mrs. Harris that cir-| cumstances threw suspicion in Brock- way's direction, and ever since, with the ald of her lawyer, Judge Maguire, she has conducted a quiet investigation, which has resulted in Brockway’s arrest. Hypnotist’s Conflicting Stories. When first questioned about the’ rob- béry, Brockway informed the police that Mrs. Brockway was not his wife. He stated that she was his brother’'s wife. This statement has_been proven false. Brockway, so Mrs. Harris' attorneys say, was married to the woman in Tacoma, on November 16, 1898. Every statement made by Brockway concerning the robbery tended to divert any suspicion that it was a result of a wéll-laid and neatly execut- etl“}:lot. hen seen yesterday at the County Jail Brockway said: “I will prove myself in- nocent of the suspicion that planned this robbery. My lawyers have instructed me to keep silent on the subject.” Mrs. L. J. Harris, the woman who lost the jewelry is a resident of Louisville, Kentucky. She is quite wealthy and owns a big interest in the “OK" Breeches Manufacturing Company of that place. Her husband, who was a_partner in the concern, died recently. She came here last October to spend the winter and met Brockway in a soclal way while interest- ing herself in occult sclences. £ Mrs, Harris does not prevail in her suit to recover her stolen dlamonds and jewelry she will institute criminal pro- ceedings against Brockway. Brockway is the man who was arrested last week for having defrauded one of his hypnotic students out of $53. ‘When seen last night A. W, A. Stone refused to discuss the testimony embod- fed in his deposition. He admitted hav- ing made a deposition. but refused to dis- close the nature of it, on the ground that the attorneys had instructed him to re- main silent. Buckley’s Sentence Postponed., ‘When the case of Willlam Buckley, convicted of murder in the first degree for shooting and killlng Georgs W. Rice, the non-union machinist, at Twentieth and . Howard streets on October 11, was called in Judge Lawlor's court yesterday morning ex-Judge Ferral asked for a postponement of the sentence, as he de- sired to argue a motion for a mew trial.
