Joliet, ILL.,, was swept by cyclone
which demolished fifteen or twenty houses.
Despite this frightful destruction of property
not q person was fatally hurt Everybody
seemed TO be aware of the approach of the
cyclone some minutes before it struck the city,
ami secured their safety by fleeing to their
cellars. The cyclone came from the south
west straight up the Desplaines River. Con-
slant flashes Of lightning lit up the sky so that
the funnel-shaped monster could be plainly
seen as it came whirling toward the city with
roar like q hundred locomotives blowing of
steam. The air was filed with boards, limbs
Of trees, sections Of roofs. and pieces OF
heavy timber A bridge was picked up bodily
and deposited almost intact two blocks away.
heavy grindstone was blown $50 feet
Pieces Of houses were carried a quarter Of q
Hllle. large uumDer OF houses were more
or less moved from their foundations and
wrenched out Of shape, many OF them with
great patches of shingles missing from their
roofs. Telegraph poles were twisted off like
pipestems, and the streets were blockaded with
Q mass of tangled wires Numerous holes
were scooped out of the hard gravel streets.
ye-witnesses say that these holes were made
by balls Of electricity, or fire, which bounded
along the ground during the rush of the cy-
clone. Great trees were torn up, and their
bodies twisted into every imaginable shape
Numbers Of horses and COWS we're buried be-
meath falling barns, and some were badly
crippled. The horse and buggy OF Deputy
Sheriff Ward was hitched in front. Of his house
when the cyclone came, and after II had passed
the horse and buggy had disappeared, and no
trace of II has yet been found The damage
to property in the city is estimated at S75, 900,
and may exceed that sum-
England will make Esquimalt, q sea-
port on Vancouver Island, an impregnable har-
Dor and an important depot for war supplies.
In the matter of the recent grave dis
aster on the Nickel-Plate Road, majority of
the Coroner's jury holds the conductor and en-
gineer Of the excursion train responsible, while
the minority finds that the accident was
caused by Misunderstanding Of flag orders.
