A TORNADO IN WASHINGTON CITY.

The most violent thunder storm experienced
in this section for many years passed over this
city about half past seven O'Clock last even
ing Its effects are visible everywhere in un-
rooted houses, fallen trees and telegraph wires,
while such a general interchange Of business
signs and awnings has taken place that those
merchants who celebrated the day in orthodox
fashion might find difficulty in locating their
establishments.
In rapid tramp over the northwestern
portion of the city at a late hour last evening,
the following facts were gathered two dwell
ing houses on G street. Nos. 1911 and 1913.
occupied by Mr.. Lyons aud Mr.. Manning, had
their roofs taken off, and all along the same
square the young trees were broken off and
blown through The street. A large three story
brick house No 1920 Fourteenth street. was
swept of roof, cornices, and chmneys, the
debris carried distance of one hundred feet
The dwelling of John a. Evans and DR.. Bliss,
on street between Fourteenth and Fifteenth
streets, were unroo(ed and portion of the
tin-work carried over and thrown against Il
frame house on the south side of X street neal
Fifteenth street. A row of FIVE houses belong
ing to Dr. Cogan, and situated on Q street
below Fifteenth, were completely stripped Of
their roofs, not plank or single being left
The entire covering Of the houses was carried
down to Fourteenth street. On CQrcoran St.
between Fourteenth and Fifteenth, the houses
of Mcssrs. Wilson, Van Week, Woods, Chinn
johnson, Harley, and others were unroofed =
On Pierce street, I street, and other streets tC
| the north, much damage of similar character
was caused AT the Ebbtt House the iron
| frame supporting the awning was twisted likt
q piece Of wire and part OF the awning carried
away; one Of the large lamps in front of thu
house was also smashed. In other sections o
the city very serious damage was caused by
! the hurricane, but so far as ascertained no seri
Gus injury occurred to life or limb, although
several narrow escapes were made and son
persons slightly injured by falling tinbers.-
| So great was the violence of the wind tina
several carriages passing along the street wer
completely overturned. The bulk window!
of the establishment of Green g. Williams, o
| Seventh and ID streets, and Henry Bogus OF
! D street. between Ninth and Tenth streets
were blown in; also large bulk window il
the st Mare Hotel. The flagstaff of the Ma
| tiOna) hotel came down with rush among
| crowd Of men who were standing on the pave
ment, but fortunately no one was injured.
The dust was so binding that in every sec
| ton of the city children were completely lost
even within u square of their homes, anC
moancd in helpless bewiderment.
! The telegraph wires running hence TO al
| points were Frustrated, and but one wire wa
in use by the Associated Press after the storm
! Hence our meagre show of Geographic news
| The city wires were completely demolished. =
