AT CHICAGO.
CHICAGO, Aug. ga severe wind
storm, accompanied by torrents of rain and
brilliant display of electricity, broke over
the city at 4 O'Clock this morning. The
wind created all kinds of havoc among the
signs, awnings and chimneys and sew
eral accidents of more serious
nature are reported. At the corner of
Blue Island avenue and How're street a
large three-story brick building in course of
erection was blown to the ground. At the
corner of Forty-ninth and West Lake streets
a large, new twO-Story frame house was
blown down, and in it's fall completely de-
molished the adjoining two-story structure,
the second house being also somewhat
injured. The signal service office records a
fall of one inch. Though the velocity of
the wind on the shore was thrty-five miles
an hour, the signal officers say that on the
lake, where it was unrestricted by build
ings, its speed must have been fully forty
five miles, The schooner Comanche, lying
outside, snapped her anchor chain and
pounded on the breakwater, and was towed
inside by tugs this morning in leaking
condition.
