Extreme Heat In me Northwest and
Violsut Storms In Indiana.
fRv tot>~xa nj. IN thu Nfsuat0h.


tBy telegraph 70 the Dispatch.1
CHICAGO, July 16.-A special from
st. Paul says The hot wave in the
Northwest continues. Yesterday re-
ports from beyond jamestown and Bis
marck showed the mercury was still
hanging around 1909. This kind Of
weather is supposed to be unfsvorable
for the crops, although 1t is probable
that not much injury has been done. In
Central and Eastern Minnesota and Da-
kota the weather is more favorable, and
crops are doing fairly we'll. The worst
complaints are from the Jim Run Val
ley, where it is very hot and dry, and
from sections along the Iowa and Min
nesota division of the St. Paul road.
Chinch.bugs are reported in many fields
around Lake City, but are doing no
great damage. In the Biack-EIills coun-
Try the crop is very promising since the
lain, which, however, did not cover the
'ntire agricultural country surround
ing the Hills, and the grain in districts
not reached by the rain is reported IL
poor condition.
CROrs RUINED AND BUILDINGS
WRECKED.
A special from Marion Ind.) SAYS:
Reports of the storm Tuesday show that
the devastation was much greater than
indicated by the first reports. In some
places hail covered the ground two
inches. Corn, oats, and fruit are q
total loss. The corn-stalks are stripped
and broken. Oats are beaten fiat on
the ground, and the fruit is beaten from
trees. Wheat, which was nearly all in
the shock, will much Of it have to be
gathered out Of the woods and corn
fields, where it was carried by the wind.
Probably a hundred buildings in the
county were unroofed or blown down.
The damage in the county is roughly
estimated at 1000.
The growing crops on some thirty
square miles of territory in Champaign,
Condit, Hensley, and Tolono town.
ships, Illinois, were considerably dam.
aged by the hail-storm of Tuesday
night. Corn and other vegetation were
literally cut to pieces. Thousands Of
paDes of window-glsss were broken.
The loss cannot fall below 100000.
The storm was accompanied by whirl-
wind, and its effects are seen in a terri
tory six miles wide and twelve long.
VIOLENT STORM AT NEWARK, OHIO.
A special from Newark t0hio) says:
This city was visited by one Of the most
severe storms ever known yesterday.
Over $4,000 damage was done, the
greatest loss being to the fruits and
growing crops. Several business blocks
bad their roofs carried away. Men,
women, and children were terribly
frightened. The storm was Of about an
hours duration, the wind high, light
ming fierce, hail terrific, and rain falling
heavily.

FxtradittOn Treaty.

(By Anglo-American cable TO the Dispatch
LONDON, July l5.-ln spite of de.
mails it is positively asserted that the
draft of an extradition treaty between
Great Britain and the United States has
been signed by Lord Rosebery and Min
lister Phelps. and is now in Washington.
The prospect Of really effective extradi-
ton treaty causes great qualification here.
Interviews with Scotland-Yar Off
Gals show a consensus Of opinion that
the old treaty was almost useless as
regarded many of the worst offences,
not counting those Of political ma.
ture. A veteran detective remarked
that il the treaty should be ratified
several well.known faces in New York
and London would soon be missing.

by Anglo-Am cable to the Dispatch
PARIS, July l5.-The expulsion Of
the Due D'Aumale was the cause Of an
exciting scene in the Senate to-day.
NJ. emelong said that the Dukes let.
ter to President Grevy in nowise justi
fed his expulsion, and that the Govern
ment bad violated the principle that an
officers commission was his property.
General Boulanger. Minister Of War,
replied that he would not tolerate an
insolent letter like the Dukes.
An uproar ensued, and Baron La
reintz shouted that the expulsion Of the
Duke was an act of cowardice.
General Boulanger declared that ne
would not permit such an expression TO
be applied to the Minister of War, and
quilted the Tribune.
NJ. Sardien stated that the Due
d'Aumale's letter had been written
with the consent Of the Comte de Paris
and that the whole affair was yeri-
table plot.
General Boulanger declared that he
would fulfil his duty as Republican
Minister.
NJ. Lareintz said he regretted that so
distinguished soldier as General Bou-
larger should insult any one who was
absent.
They then passed to the order of the
day, by vote of l57 to 70 approving
the conduct of the Government and ex-
pressing confidence in its vigilance.
LONDON, July l5.-The Due D'Au-
male and Due de Charities, with suite
of fifteen persons, arrived at Brussels to-
day. The report Of the arrival of the
Due D'Aumale in London yesterday
was erroneous.

Terrible storm In Baltimore.
(By telegraph to the Dispatch


BALTIMORE, July IA terrible
rsin.storm visited this city tonight.
It was more severe in the western sec
tion---a kind Of water-spout-unroof-
ing many houses on Stricken street
and Harlem avenue. Harlem Square
had trees torn up by the roots,
and the limbs of others were
wrung off. On Fremont avenue
nearly all the houses were flooded. The
storm broke at Hollius street and
moved nOrthward ten blocks to Har-
lem avenue. Joists were caught up
by the wind and hurled through the
air, causing destruction to windows, and
in some instances knocking chimneys
and bricks from the tops Of buildings.
At late hour tonight some OF the
streets are impossible from the block
ade Of tin roofs and scantlings. No per-
sonal injury was sustained, as far as
can be ascertained.

THE AUGCsTA, GA. sTaIHE.
Correspondence Between the 1iii
Owners and the knights.

lBy telegraph to the Dlspatch.l
AUGUSTA, Ga, July l5.-C. II.
Phinizy, president Of the Augusta fac
tory, in letter to Messrs. Mullen, Mey-
nardn, and Salley, committee Of the
Knights of Labor, declines to make 10
per cent. advance to the strikers, but
agrees to abolish the pass or line system.
The Board Of Directors declare TO all
whom it may concern that they are anx-
ious to continue business on any terms
which do not involve actual loss aud de-
struction of property, and cordially in
yite the cooperation Of all persons
willing to engage in such business.
In reply to the letter Of President
phinizy, ". ii. Mullen, Of the Knights
of Labor, declares that Is per cent. is
not their ultimatum, and offers on be-
balf of the operatives to accept an adj
vance Of 10 per cent. for six months.
in reply to the offers OF President
Phinizy to allow a committee of the
Knights to examine the books to show
that the factory had lost largely and is
not able TO advance wages Mullen
charges that the offer was useless, as
the records of the company had been
consigned TO the flames.
President phinizy's rejoinder is that
he can have no further communication
with any one making such charges un-
til they are Withdrawn. 1t is thought
that Mullen will Withdraw the charges
about burning the books Of the factory
in the morning, as they are utterly un-
founded. Other factories are working,
but there is feverish excitement among
the operatives in all the mills about the
strike in the Augusta factory.

Our Grain Crop.

The wheat crop in the West, if we
may trust the report of the statistician
of the Agricultural Department, has
suffered considerably from the effects Of
the recent drought. 1t is likely, there
fore, at least east Of the Rocky noun
tsins, to be somewhat smaller than the
crop of last year. While the American
harvest has suffered in consequence OF
heat and intense dryncss, the European
harvest is likely to be reduced as re-
suit Of exceptionally cold and wet
weather. The demand for American
grain will probably be better during
the coming season than it was last year.
and it is a pity that we have not an
enormous surplus to feed the hungry
mouths in Europe.

CHICAGO. July, 1.-The committee
Of striking miners at Grape Creek coal
mines, near Danville, ILL.,, publish
card respecting the situation, 10 which
they say: There is no prospect Of .
riot, nor has there been any attempt at
violence or intimidation Of any kind.
The miners Of this place are all Anne
iican citizens, peaceable and lsw-
abiding, and have common sense
enough to stand up for their
rights. The Grape Creek Coal Com
pany is solely responsible for our
present trouble. We were request
ed by F. II. Mcclure, general manager
Of the Grspe-Creek Coal Company, TO
send delegate to the Columbus tOhio)
Convention, which adopted the Pitts
burgh rate Of seventy.iive cents per ton.
lie took a prominent part in the Con-
yention, and was the only operator that
voted against the Pittsburgh scale,
which was TO 60 into effect May LIST.
When the Convention was over General
Manager Mcclure came home, called US
together, and told US he would not be
governed by the scale Of wages fixed
and adopted, and wanted us to join
hands with him and repudiate all that
had been done at the Convention. We
told him, in justice to forty-nine OPP
orators and all the miners from eight
States that took part in the proceed
ipgs Of that Convention, we could do
only in the way prescribed by the Con-
vention, and that was, to submit all
grievances to board Of arbitration.
This be refused to do. We have been
eyicted from their houses, and have
taken up our abode in rudely.con-
structed houses of our own, but we
have plenty to eat and respectable
clothing to wear. Our fellow-miners
have nobly come to our res
cue, and we are receiving about
1900 per week. The company is now
trying to colonize negroes here, and
Friday last they brought in from Ten
nessee seventy-eight negroes. Sheriff
futile, of Vermillion county, with forty
deputies, escorted them from Danville,
and a committee Of miners was allowed
to talk with the negroes, and the result
is forty-nine Of them have gone back
and the rest will go in few days.

Especial telegram to the Dispatch.l
CHARLESTON, WEST Va, July 10.
telegraphed you few days ago of the
murder by George Bessley Of his wife.
and to-day information reaches here OF
another outrage by Beasley. No at
tempt was made by the authorities to
arrest him after the killing of his wife.
Last Monday one Moore, brother
of the man who was shot by Beasley
last fall, and for whose murder Bessley
was tried and acquitted, while milking
was shot by Beasley. The ball struck
him in the side, and, but for comb in
Moore's pocket, which turned its course,
would have killed him instantly. As it
was, a quite painful and perhaps fatal
wound was made.
While Beasley was in Jail here last
fall awaiting trial for killing Henderson
Moore, he made his escape by knocking
down the jailer, but was recaptured by
two men, John Woodrum and ives.
Smith. lie now swears that they also
must become victims to his mania for
murder. No efforts are being made to
arrest him. lie is well armed, and has
barricaded his house, and any attempt
to do SO would probably be fatal to
those attempting it.
