The Tornado in Michigan,

LANSING, Mich, May Is. "A cyclone

above him and drove one piere under his
right eye with such force that the eve was
literally cut out. A lady in the same car,
who refused to give her name, was also cut,
though not seriously, about the face. A few
Others had their hands cut. An idea of its
force may be conceived from the fact that
rocks were blown into the cars on the south
side and had sufficient impetus left to pierce
the western windows as clean as if they
were bullets from Gatling gun. None OF
the roofs OF cars were much damaged, but
the locomotive boiler was dented in several
places, and the
SMOKE STACK WAS KNOCKED OF
on a straight line. After about an hours
delay the train started again and in due
time reached Crest'ine withoutfurther acci.
dent. There locomotive was procured,
and the battered cars came on to Pitts
burg, reaching the Union depot one hour
ond half late, a good deal of time being
made up on the run. When the train arrived
here, it looked as il it had been riddled by
sharpshooters and heavy artillery.

ST. LOUIS, May 14.-The Curtin Labor
Investigatin Committee held it's last ses-
sion in the city to-day, and will leave for
Washington tonight. Martin Irons testi-
fed that the officials of the road ignored
the provisions OF the March agreement, and
noted instances where the grievances of
their employees were never considered. The
discharge OF Hall on the Texas Pacific was
the immediate cause of the strike. This
was not, however, the sole reason, but it
was the last OF many grievances which had
made the strike necessary. He had tried
to settle the affair before the strike.

Alderman Jaehne Convicted /.

New YORK, May 5.-Counsel for the de-
tense moved that the indictment be dis
missed us the Grand Jury had been tricked
into making false presentment. Judge
Barrett overruled the motion. The coun-
sci for the defense then made the opening
argument, wherein Byrnes and District
Attorney Martin were accused Of arresting
Jaehne in order to save themselves, as
Jaehne's testimony before the Senate Com
mittee implicated them in compromising
felony.
The prisoner at the bar being placed on
the stand in his own behalf, testified that
he had been intimate with Byrnes, but de-
MED emphatically having told him, as
alleged, that he had received money for
his vote. He had never received, asked
nor been promised money for his vote.
The witness reviewed the conversation be-
tween himself and Byrnes at the latter's
house, but denied that Byrnes ever asked
him if he received money for his vote. The
witness made flat denials of other we'll
known theories duplicating him, and the
testimony was closed and the arguments
closed.
At IL o'clock the instructions were given
and the jury retired to consult on verdict.
CONVICTED.
New YORK, Nay 16.-1:15 a. m. At1:1O
O'Clock this morning the jury, in the

erect. The jury was given q recess until
Monday, it not being lawful to discharge it
on Sunday. Jaehne was tben taken to the
Toombs.

sioners, and decides that half pay for tive

At last accounts the New York "bcodle'
officials were in very peaceful, not to say
hilarious, frame of mind, and were openly
boasting that no further harm could reach
them without involving the downfall of various
high dignitaries hitherto unsupported of rascal
ity. This was the ostrich-like attitude of Tweed
4 Co, but what became of that celebrated
firm? Squire and Flynn, if guilty, may make
up their minds to suffer. The people OF New
York are evidently determined to probe this
latest scandal TO the bottom, no matter whom
