WASHINGTON, August 1870 P. M-The
barometer has fallen decidedly since Thursday
afternoon at the Pacific and Rocky Mountain
stations, and the area of the lower barometer
yesterday advancing in Minnesota now covers
that State and also Kansas The pressure re-
mains highest from Lake Michigan to Ken
lucky, but is following. An area OF low barom-
eter exists north of Lake Ontario, with, brisk
westerly winds from Michigan to New .Hamp-
shire. Smoke and haze are reported from
Western Nebraska and Iowa, as also from
Eastern Michigan and Lake Ontario Rain

Thursday afternoon was prevailing in Florida,

Probabities-Local storms are probable for
tonight and Saturday in Minnesota, and the
barometer will probably fall with increasing
haze and cloudiness from Arkansas to New
York and northward. Cloudy and threaten

England. The storm in Florida will probably
