THE TERRIBLE CYCLONE.
ITS SWEEP UP THE DELAWARE RIVER.
Eight Persons Killed and.Sixty Injured-A
Scene of Desolation at Philadelphia
Property 10 the Amount of Thou
sands of Dollars Destroyed.

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 4.-The best in
formation regarding yesterdays cyclone
is that eight persons lost their lives, two are
reported missing and 60 were injured,
some so seriously that recovery is impos-
sible The scene IN the 25th Ward
this morning is one of desoation.
Many houses are raZed to the
ground, others are completely gutted,
while many more are rOofless The ap-
pearance of the localities on both sides of
the Delaware River in the direct track of
the tornado, resembles at once thickly
populated region that has been visited by
an extensive fire. The total loss will
amount to about S500,0OO, including $780,
600 on property in Camden, S150,O0O in
Philadelphia, and $?500OO on vessels dam
aged in the river. The rain storm which
followed the tornado also did great
deal of damageThe water inthe Schuylkill
river this morning is higher than it has
been Tor many months. In many places
some of the streets were washed away by
the flood to a depth of seven feet from
curb to curb. The trestle work of the
bridge there was carried away and the
cellars of three hundred houses were flood
ed with water

RAILROAD MATTERS.

President Depew of the New York Cen
tral has notified the Grand Trunk that un-
der the new arrangement the West Shore
will afford the Grand Trunk every facl-
ty which it has hitherto enjoyed. He
also states that while rates Will be ad-
yanced to fair figures, there will be no at
tempt to punish anybody, but every eff
fort to make the new arrangement pOpu-
lar with the public.
There is "A strong upward movement in
Northern Pacific stocks, y. p. preferred
selling up to IS.
A new highway for tea transportation
has been opened by the Northern Pacific
railroad. The first crop of this seasons
tea will come over the railway, consigned
to Tacoma, Washington Territory, "A small
town bordering on the Pacific ocean, the
first point touched by the Northern Pacific
railroad. 1t occupies commanding posi-
ton, and has an excellent harbor capable
of receiving the largest ocean-going yes
sells. Shipping by this route the New
York importers can supply their western
trade even before they receive their own
goods. -Four hundred cars are now wait
ing at Tacoma to receive the &c, 600 chests
of tea which are now due at that point.
The Boston and Lowell refused some
time ago to haul over its Vermont divis-
ion the colored line cars laden with
through freight between the West and
Portland on account of the rates not be-
ing remunerative. The cOlored lines have
again sought connection over the Boston
and Lowell, and proposition has been
made to them which they will probably
accept,
The Philadelphia press says that there
are some signs of a contest for the control
of the Northern Pacific railroad company
at the September election on the part of
Mr.. Gould, and some of the recent buying
is attributed to him.
1t is again reported that the Boston &
Lowell has acquired the Passumpsic stock
owned by the Connecticut River road,
and thus gets control of the Passumpsic
road. The Boston q Lowell guarantees
to pay per cent on the stock. 1t is also
rumored that the Boston road is negotiat
ing for the Southeastern, and is likely to
get it. These reports are officially denied
but it is fair to say that good many
people believe they are only premature,
1t is believed that the projected road
| from Ottawa to the St. Lawrence at Nor
risburg, some miles below Ogdensburg
will be built, as the Dominion govern
ment has voted it a subsidy of 1920 mile
From Morrisburg it is but a few miles to
| Norwood, y. Y, where connection can be
had with the Ogdensburg & Lake Cham
plain and with the Rome, Watertown Il
Ogdensburg. This would give the Cana
dian Pacific very direct line to the New
York Central.

Some of the new silver dollars coined
for the purpose of preventing counterfeit
ing are out. The coins are struck from
the same die as the regular dollar of 1885,
but the edge instead of being milled or
'reeded'' is inscribed 'E pluribus unum"
in raised letters. This change was made
by Colonel Snowden, the recent superin-
tendent of the Philadelphia mint, and the
advantage claimed for it is that it would
be more difficult to counterfeit. There is
nothing new or original in the change.
Most European countries have used this
lettered edge for the past two centuries,
some using raised letters and others sunk
en- or "incused'' letters. The sunken let
ters are also found on the early coins of the
United States, and were only discontinued
when steam coinage was invented in 1896.
Neither is it true that the coins cannot be
easily counterfeited so far as the raised
letters are concerned. The sunken letters
have only been counterfeited, however,
BY electrotyping and using lettered collars
for engraved dies. The new coin is not
very handsome.

THE YACHT REGATTA.
The Cup Won by the Sharpie-An Exciting
Kace-The Yachting Boom.

The first yacht race of the Burlington
Yacht club, which was for the Bailey
Music Room cup, came off Wednesday
morning according to announcement, with
the most favorable weather and a good
attendance of spectators The wind which
was northerly was moderate at first. and
delayed the race for short time, but it
afterwards increased and more favorable
breeze could not have been desired, giving
the yachts an excellent opportunity to dis
play their sailing qualities. The Mari
quita and the Republic, which went over
the course with the racers, had good sized
excursions on board, and in addition there
wer9 many small boats out on the lake
and no small number of spectators along
the shore. The race was appointed for
$3.50 a. m, but owing to the wind it was
eight minutes after this time before the
first of the yachts, in answer to the blasts
of the Saratoga's whistle, crossed the
line. All of the yachts entered for the
race responded except the Wanderer
The start was an excellent one, all of the
yachts crossing the line within three and
a half minutes after the signal, and all
within two and a half minutes, save the
Sandy which waited for a better breeze
The starting time was as follows
Burlington weekly free press. [volume] (Burlington, Vt.) 1866-1928, 1885-08-07

The yachts followed along the breakwa-
ter until near the south end, where brief
calm was encountered, allowing the Sandy
to Overtake its competitors. and the fleet
was here joined by the Mariquita, with the
judges on board. Soon after the Sandy
came up fair wind filled the
Tapping sails and the fleet started for
Juniper Ledge" The Gypse at once be-
gan to open space and in a short time was
well ahead of the Sharpie which was
closely pressed by the Sandy From the
time of this change in the position of the
three leading yachts until Juniper Ledge
was reached the relative positions remain
ed unchaged and the spar buoy at that
point was passed in the following order ::
Gypsie. Sharpe, Sandy, Mystic, Inza,
Mary, EXtenuate and Dude. The course
from this point to Apple Tree shoal was a
beat to the winward and it was at once
clear that the Sharpie had great adj
vantage over the others from the close
ness with which she runs to the wind.
When short distance to the north of
Juniper Ledge the Mary broke her rudder
from this on was as it had been before, be-
tween the Sharpe, Gypsie and Sandy,
the strife over the first half of the dis
tance between the two buoys being be-
tween the former two and during the last
half between the latter two. The buoy at
Apple Tree shoal was passed, however, by
these three in this order Sharpe, Gyp-
sic, Sandy. The rest were at a respectful
distance to the rear and passed the buoy
in the same order as the first, with the eX.
ception of the Mary. The following gives
the time of arrival of the yachts and the
elapsed and corrected time:

The cup was presented with the under
standing that it should be won by the
same yacht three times, to be held per-
manently and other races will be held
during the season. Indeed, the interest
awakened over the race yesterday, was so
great that at the meeting of the club last
night to decide the result of the race,
another contest was partially arranged
for. 1t can be safely said that genuine
boom in yachting has been started here
and the outlook is most promising for IA
good seasons sport.

ALBANY's MOURNING DECORATIONS
| The Remains to Lie in State at the New
York State Capital.

The Remains to Lie in State at the New
York State Capital
ALBANY, n. Y, Aug. 4.-The decora-
tions throughout the city are very elabo-
rate The arches of the principal facade
of the CIV hall are filled with rising suns
of blaclRith purple spots. The draping
of the principal streets presents a very i'm
posing sight. The doorways of the capitol
are richly draped, as well as the stone
columns between the entrances. The
catafalque rises twelve feet and is sur
mounted by dome rising six feet,
and the whole topped with gild-
ed ball, on which rests an eagle
with outstretched wings. The pillars
on which the dome rests are eight inches
in diameter with standard or base four
teen inches through and are perfectly
round. Although the new capitol has
been occupied for more than six years, yet
during that time the only reception to
any public man given within its walls was
gwen to Gen. Grant when he was here in
January, 1851, and the first remains of a
distinguished man to lie in state within
its walls are those of Gen. Grant.
