THE SECRETARY OF THE NATIONAL DIsTu

ERs' ASSOCIATION EXAMINED.
WASHINGTON, June 19.-Dr. Rust, of
Chicago, secretary of the National Distillers'
and Liquor Dealers Association, testified
before the Window Committee that his asso-
citation had not raised or expended dollar
to influence the passage of the bonded spirits
bill, and he knew of no corrupt influences in
connection with it, or that any senator, or
member of Congress, or journalist mad spec
ulsted ia whisky in anticipation of any legis-
lation.
DIR. Brown, of Louisville, said e had acted
Tor the distiller5 attorney formerly, but
knew nothing whatever of the present sub
ject of inquiry. He was opposed to the pres
ent bill, and would have voted against it if
he had been a member of Congress. He did
not think Kentucky distillers were as much
interested in il, or would be as much affected
by it as the Northern distillers, who own
four-fifths of the whisky now in bond.
The committee adj burned subject TO call.
They have but one more witness to exam
ine-Shirley, of Kentucky.

WASHINGTON, June 19.-The House Com
mittee on Expenditures in the War Depart
ment to-day heard the commissary general
and others on the subject of alleged abuses
in the adjudication of claims in the offices of
quarterm aster-general, commissary- general
and third auditor. General McFeeley was
of the opinion that there is no foundation
for the charges that certsin employees in his
Office received considerations for using their
influence in the rapid adjudication of claims.
He was in favor, however, of changing the
system of examining the claims which are
now referred to the oommissary- generals
Office. He thought they could be handled
to greater advantage by special commission
ers. He advocated the appointment of
commission for each of the several districts
i'll which the claims originate. Chairman
Briggs says the committee will probably not
be able to report the result of its investiga-
ton TO the House this session. There APP
pears to be a decided disposition among the
members of the committee to recommend

And More than Two Hundred Lives
LOst-The Course Of the Wind
and Rain Across the
Country.

DEsMoINEs, June 19.-There are but few
new developments to-day from the destruc-
ton by the cyclone at Grinnell. No further
deaths are reported to-day, but up to IL
o'clock toll night forty-one deaths had occurred
at Grinnell and twenty-three at outside
points; seventeen Of them at Malcolm and
that vicinity and five in the northwest o s
r-6rinnell. Tire doctors say mat six or seven
OF the wounded at Grinnell will not live
twenty -four hours, and some of the ply
sicians put the first death-roll at Grinnell
alone at more than fifty, while some fear
that it will yet reach az high as seventy five.
OF the wounded in that city there are now
over 120 known cases, and some eighty Of
them more or less serious. In the
country there are also several serious cases
of injury. The best posted men at Grinnell
yesterday estimated the death-roll as very
likely to reach 100; it il now sixty four as
we have it. There were SIX deaths yester-
day and last night, among them Conductor
Deiguan, of the Rock Island road. One
hundred and forty-thIee is now the estimated
number OF dwel!inghouses DESTROYED by the
tornado in Grinnell. 1t is estimated that
this entails a loss of more than $500 900,
which is nearly a total loss, as hardly any of
them are insured against tornadoes, or any
thing but fire. J. B. Grinnell states that fifty
of the people losing their homes lose all they
have IN this world. Outside of Grinnell,
and in Malcolm and in the county, there is
also an immense loss. Probably the aggre-
gate all will not foot up less than $3.50, 600
Some of the business men OF Grinnell think
its actual loss will be larger rather than less
