\ fearful storm of wind and rain swept
over Kansas City, Missouri, on the nth
inst, continuing from II o'clock till
noon. The court house on Second
street was totally demolished above the
second story. The Lathrop school build
ing on Eighth street was partially wreck
ed and many children caught in the
runs. An overall factory on Second
street was blown down. The old water
works building near the court house was
blown down. AT the Western Union
telegraph Office but one wire is working
out of the city. Communication has
been established with ST. Louis over that
wire by way of Dallas, Galveston, New
Orleans and Memphis. One span at the
North end of the railroad bridge across
the Missouri River was blown into the
river, blocking the Hannibal and st.
Joseph, Rock Island, Wabash and Kan
Sas City, ST. Joe and Council Bluffs
Roads Eight girls have been taken ont
of the overall factory, four of whom are
dead; many others are i'll the ruins, but
there is scarcely n hope for their lives,
| In the confusion it is impOsSiblct to ascer-
tain definitely the extent of the calamity,
but it is said that over twenty employees
are imprisoned in the basement of the
factory. The disastrous fury of the
storm was confined to the north end of
the city except i'll the destruction Of the
Lathropc school building on Eighth
street. The buildings generally except
ing those mentioned withstood the fury
of the storm.
AS nearly as can be learned amid the
Intense excitement and confusion, about
twenty persons are known to be dead.
At the Lathropc school eleven children
arc reported dead. OF the four build
ings wrecked all were more or less I'M
sound. Tho school building has been
twice condemned and the court house
by many was considered unsafe. No
one was killed except in these four
houses. The storm, although cntailing
such heavy loss of life, was nothing of
the nature of the tornado that visited the
city three years ago. 1t was II violent
wind, accompanied Ivy a flood of water
and heavy hail, which turned many
streets into rivers. Signs, shutters,
chimncys, etc, were blown with the
gale and n large number of vehicles
were overturned in the streets. The
black clouds that rolled ovcr the city
created almost the darkness of night and
made timid ones crouch in terror in eel
lars. The streets were entirely deserted,
and III some instances horses were seen
wandering about attached to vehicles
and seeking refuge from the pcltinS

The case of Thomas j. Cluvcrius, con-
vlcted of the murder of Fannie Lillian
Madison, has attracted widespread atten-
ION. AS the facts of the case may have
passed out of recollection, II brief state
mcnt may now be proper. On the 18th
March, 1885, ut 3 O'Clock, Il. m, Miss
Fannie Lillian Madison arrived in Rich
mond from Bath county and ven to the
American Hotel, where she registered us
"Miss +. l.. Merton" Next morning
her dead body was found in the old city
reservoir, Il short distance west of Holly
wood cemetery. On the 18th, near
Little Plymouth, in the county of King
and Queen, her first cousin, Il. j. Cluve-
RUS (hla-vecrs), was arrested. charged
with the murder of the deceased. He
waived an examination before the Police
Justice, was indicted in April, and was
brought to trial i'll the Hastings Court Of
Richmond at the May term. On the 4th
day of June the jury returned Il verdict
OF guilty"
The case went to the Court Of Appeals,
he decision Of which was adverse to the
pr'soner-as already published.
The Richmond papers give some add
tionai particulars of the result of the
case i'll the Court of Appeals. The judg-
ment of the lower court is sustained in
all particulars. Little or no surprise
was manifested at the decision; in fact,
public opinion had been very well settled
upon the presumption that no new hear
ing We Id be granted. For over IL week
the air has been full of rrmors that the
cour stood four to one against Il new
trial, and that two "t the four disagreed
only rs to the certain particulars, and
for once umor was correct. How these
facts leaked out is not known, or whcth-
CT 1T was only one of the lucky Surmiscs
OF those who are supposed to know
everything. After the reading of the
opinion of the court, as expressed, had
been arrived at after II very patient and
searching review of all the facts rs set
forth at the time OF the trial, and was
supported by copious quotations and
references to the most learned and com
potent authorities. Thus is ended nnoth-
CT act in the great tragedy which shocked
q continent and for Il time made Rich
mond uncmyiably famous.

W COhmpanys
The above combination opened last
night at the Grand Opera House. The
gallery and parquet were crowded, but
the dress circle was but fairly well filled.
1t would seem as if there might be some
misapprehension abroad as to the char
acter of the entertainment. 1t is a va
riety show to be sure, but such one as
the most fastidious lady may see with
out fear of anything indelicate.
a great stress of matter in the HER
aid columns forbids any attempt at de-
tail mention of the performance, but
that it is decidedly good is sufficiently
evidenced by the peals of laughter
which rang through the auditorium all
through the acts.
The contortionist Reklaw is such as
has never before been seen here, and
such as has never been excelled in the
world.
Mile lilly sings well selected songs
in most admirable manner. The gym
nasts Leroux and Wilton have no supe-
riors anywhere. The entertainment
ends with an exhibition in breaking
glass balls by Chew. Ira Payne, which
beats anything heretofore seen in Los
Angeles. The house tonight is GER
tain to be choke full.
