 SAN FRANCISCO, May 15.-The Pitts burgh and Chicago express on the Fort Wayne railroad had a rough experience in passing through the tornado which | struck eastern Ohio last night. The lightning tisshed continuously from the | time the train left Fort Wayne at s D. m., and rain descended most solidly un- til Luna, Ohio. was passed. When about | three miles from Kirby the storm was Gt | its heIght. Suddenly there was a dark | in the distance. and then a cy- clOue tore across the level plain on the | south side of the track: catching big | tree, it tore 1t up by the roots and flung It | across the track. One limb struck the | and cut the COW catcher ID two. Another limb fell on the platform and steps of the first car and demolished it. The telegraph poles came dancing down at the same time. Rocks and | bushes blew through the air in a riotous | scurry. The car windows were smashed | to pieces and splinters of glsss few m | every direction. The train kept on the | rails and the engineer applying the air | brakes soon brought 1t to a stand still. | The passengers were in paroxysms of | fear, The railway men kept fairly cool | and as soon as they could, assisted in | the restoration of confidence. The | storm continued. The sir was still filled | with flying branches and stones, while | the glare of electricity liberated from | tbe clouds intensified the horror of the scene. Though there was scarcely 8 Il pane of glassiIn she coaches that was not broken it is remarkable that very | few passengers were hurt. C. O. Bow, & of Canton, Ohio, had 8 piece | of glass blown under his right eye with such force that 1t literally cut 1t out. A number of other passengers were cut about the face and hands, but none ser iously. An idea ot its force may be con- oeiyed from the fact that rocks were | blown into the cars on the south slde | and had sufficient impetus left to pierce | the northern windows as clean as If they | were bullets froD, a GsttlIng gun. Af- ter about an hours delay thetrain start | ed again and in due time reached Crest | line without further accident. The train looked as if it had been riddled by sharp shooters and a battery of heavy artillery.
