West Chester Locat Meas says it appears
to have begun near the Gap in Lancaster
county, From there to Marshallton, . or
miles west of West Chester, its course ia
marked by uprooted trees and bare tree
trunks, demolished houses, PROSTATE
crops of grass and grain, and all the rub
Dish that would naturally be left by such
convulsion of the air. The number of
houses and barns damaged or totally
destroyed is very large, and the
loss falls with particular severity
upon the farmers at this busy
season of the year. People who were
in the midst of the tornado describe II as
awful. They say they could hardly
breathe, and were almost blinded and
choked by the dust. Great hickories and
oaks were broken off, like pipe-stems,
aud witnesses speak of trees being torn
up by the roots and carried high up in
the air. The air was full Of pieces of
wood and fragments of all kinds. The
track of the tornado was not more than
$50 or 200 yards wide, and in some places
it seemed to leave the earth, 80 that there
is not a continuous line of destruction
from its beginning to its ending. Com
paratively little damage was done east
of Ercildoun, at which place the loss was
heaviest, Mr.. DsrliDgton's loss is
greatest, and is estimated at from St2, 0OC
to $4,000. His new house was entirely
swept away, his seminary building very
badly damaged, and the outbuildings ant
the handsome lawn ruined. The losses Of
many others were, however, compare
lively as great, as the aocumulations o
| years were scattered in an instant

reason TO force tno fight against Hayes witiou,

crat ,liansOm) absent When the executive ses-
sion opened some routine business was trans
acted. favorable report was had on Hoyt
from tho Committee on Indian affairs. An Ex-
ccutive message was read Withdrawing Reeds
nomination a. Postmaster at Toledo and then
Senator Conklng made the report from the
Committee on Commerce. motion was made
TO proceed at once TO the consideration OF the
reports made. Mr.. Conkling rose nnd from his
opening sentence II was understood that he was
ready 10 pro- ccd TO an immediate vote upon the
New York nominations. Before ho had fully
WIye of arvanG ls mtGn9m noTeycr & ppckn"y
tinn and the nominations went over under the
rue Tho executive session closed without
further incident.
AT the cose Of executive session n caucus OF
Drmocratic Senators was held. lasting nearly
an hour. y was occupied With dcsutory de-
bate upon tho approaching vote ON these nom
inatons. No action was taken committing the
Democrats to any course. Very much tho
larger part o. them expressed an intention Of
voting for Hayes's nominations. Mr.. Eaton
was outspofen in diffcrentopinion. Mr. Dem
his OF Maryland. it r..a understood. will vote
the same way, and some expressions fI,... W
Garland lead 10 a like conclusion. Mr. Thur
mnn was vague IN his remarks. but his vote ap-
pears to be more likely againstthan for the con-
trnation of these nqminatons; Mr.. Voorhees,
appears TO occupy q similar position.
Mr. spencer. COnkling's immediate supporter.
said to-day that only two Republican Senator's,
Cbristlalley aud Matthew'S. could be depended

ms list. Judging from information known
ms evening. enough Democrats will vote with
Conklng TO countcrbalance any detection
among Republicans The debate in the Demo-
cratic caucus showed that the principal circum-
sianre which has separatedthe Democrats from
Hayes Is his failure 10 give any aid to Spoirord.
In addition 70 this. n warm personal sympathy

W,lch Secretary Sherman suubbcd in his refu-
sal to furnish information.
\, report current on the floor Of the senate
today that none of the Cabinet except Srhurz
and Evarts favored the denomination Of lloose-
vit and Prince, has led 10 general belief that
the Administration is less completely committed

believed.
