The once Holders and the Presidents
Order

The Postmaster General received let
ter from E. W. Kcyes, postmaster at Madison
Wisconsin, stating that four out Of the five
members Of the Republican State Executive
committee are pOstmasters, and inquiring
whether their signatures for a call for State
convention viii violate the spirit Of the Presi-
dents order. AS the convention cannot be
called by any other means they hope the per-
Torrance Of the formal duty above indicated
will not be considered as a violation OF the
Presidents directions. The Postmaster Gen
eral replied that although he would prefer that
each official would interpret the Presidents
order for himself, yet he is Of the opinion that
10 merely provide for the meeting of the con-
yention and 10 call il TO order without at
tempting 10 control its organization or future
action would not be inconsistent with the
spirit Of the Presidents instructions. The
session Of the Cabinet the following day was
chiefly devoted to the discussion Of the ques-
ton whether federal Office holders Of Niseon-
sin can call convention. This question was
raised by the letter Of Postmaster Keyes, Of
Madison, chairman Of the committee but il
does not as yet appear that any conclusion
was reached differing from the line Of policy
indicated In the letter Of Postmaster Key, as
given above.

Another Crippled Iafe Insurance 90.


The special commission for the exami-
nation u life insurance companies, appointed
by the last Connecticut legislature having ex-
amined large part Of the assets Of the Char
ter Oak Life Insurance company, Of Hartford
have certified to Commissioner Steadman that
there is an actual deficit in the actual assets
Of over 81 10000, and also that there are ques-
tionable assets amounting to over 81, 735, 600.
It is believed, however, that policy holders un-
der the present circumstances ought not TO
sacrifice their policies. The Courant says
the first observation to be directed to the pub
lie IS a caution to policy holders not to be
frightened into surrendeTing their policies or
neglecting payments. The appointment Of
the commissioner and the proceedings he has
undertaken are all wisely intended and are in
tended and are calculated 10 secure the inter
ests Of policy holders and maintain respect for
the laws and credit Of the state, and nothingis
done save under the advice Of able counsel and
approved Of honorable business men.

ICE BULLETS.

DETAILS OF THE REMARKABLE
HA III STORM IN RHODE ISLAND.
From the Providence Press.
The storm which swept through
Rhode Island on Friday afternoon, pass
ing from northwest to southeast, carried
destruction on its wings. The portion
of the storm which passed through Bur-
rillville, johnson, Pascoag and Chepatch-
ct was terrific in its fury, and was quick
ly followed, by a most remarkable hail
storm. The ice balls were estimated in
size from two inches in diameter to the
size of butternut. The hailstones
were generally smooth and round, but in
many instances long and jagged, like a
short section of an icicle. The damage
done was considerable, and in many cases
all the window panes on the north sides
of buildings were entirely destroyed.
At Pascoag the storm was terrible. A
large number of lights were broken out
of Kimballs mill, Sayle's mill, and Fisk
& Sayle's mill. The bank also lost many
lights. Forty panes were broken out of
the bank building at Pascoag.
At and near Hughesdale the storm in
flicted great injury to cattle in the fields.
The vegetation on the farm of w. S.
Kent was ruined, the leaves and buds on
his trees were riddled as if from storm
of leaden instead of ice bullets. Ridges
of hailstones were formed as high as
thirteen inches. Cattle at large were per-
fectly wild in their efforts to escape the
pelting of the stones, and some of them
had gashes cut deep enough in the hides
to make blood flow freely. Some of the
stones weighed were said TO weigh as
much as two ounces.
The driver of the Providence, Clayville
and South Scituate stage, Mr.. William
Taylor, was evertaken by the storm at
Johnston. His horses became frantic,
and all he could do was to keep them in
the road and let them run. He says he
picked us hailstones on the road as big
as hens eggs. The ground along the
stage route was covered with broken
limbs of trees and shrubs and leaves from
the newly budded trees,
The lightning struck Nehemiah Ran
dall's house, which is occupied by a
widow lady, She was sitting by the
chimney eating her supper with cup of
tea in her lap at the time, and the bolt
coming down the chimney upset the cup
and emptied the tea in her lap, much to
her astonisnment. 2 She was, to, say the
least, badly frightened, but escaped un-
hurt. rIrl .r,.rr I'll .-,.. 2 "
