A CLEAR DAY AFTER THE TEMPEST.

MANY TELEGRAPH WIRES DoWN-CoLpEk
WEATHER Predicted FOR TODAY.
The weather vas cold and clear here yesterday md
high winds prevailed long enough to prevent ousy
people from forgetting that hurricane had steaSeo
through the town on Wednesday night. The vino
Kent stirring and sergeant Dunn found up In his airy
home on tho top Of the EQUITABLE Building that BY
q n. m. there was rafting breeze blowing The
wind subsidized later and the weather grew colder but
not cold enough to make II unpleasant for those out
doors. At o p. m. Hudnuts thermometer registered
az degrees above zero.
To-day the weather Is expected TO grow colder still.
but Sergeant Dunn does not believe that the cold
spell will last more than two days. No news Of dam
age done by the hurricane here had reached the ser
grant The hurricane at Q p. was raging up the
St Lawrence Valley, and at Buffalo the wind was blow
ing at the rate of seventy miles an hour Wires were
down and he could not get all particulars But the
hurricane, he thought. would pass off to the Atlantic
By the way Of Nova Scotia and would not do much
damage to shipping Sergeant Dunn thought that there
had not been such severe hurricane from the Lake
region since 1876, when storm from the Guif OF
Mexico met gale of wind in lowe. gathered force
over the lakes, and did damage in its course.
The hurricane and rain did considerable damage
to the telegraph wires F. W. Baldwin. wire chief
at the Western Union Bildng, said that the western
Unions wires suffered principally near Buftalo be
tween Buffalo and Rochester and along the lake shore
west OF BuudfO DdndHc was u'nC oioo w 'O "'tNo
between Buffalo and Niagara Falls. In some instances
the poles had been leveied, while in other Instances
tho wires had been rendered ineffective for tho time
by sleet and snow. Wires in Pitsbrg and between
that city and Reading were wrecked, but had been
gotten into working order yesterday afternoon Every
Injured section was covered already by large crew
Of linemen and it was thought that the wires would
be In good working order to-day No communication
had been received from Chicago during part of wednes
day night, because the Buffalo wires were down.
Come damage done to the wires in Brooklyn, but

DEFECTIVE BUILDING.
Charges Growing Out Of the Wood Street
Disaster.

Gustav Meisner yesterday entered suit
against Huckenstein & Co., the contractors,
and c. L. Wiley, for S. 900 damages. Meisner
was printer for Eichbaum & Co. The room
in which be worked was crushed in by the fall
ing Wiley building last spring and he was
buried in the ruins. His right leg was broken
in three places and his shoulder blade broken.
Meisner alleges that the construction of the
building was defective. That the two side and
rear walls were built up for seven stories a
height of 65 feet without front wall or suf-
fcieut braces to sustain them. The walls also
were not strong enough for the height and to
resist ordinary storms and winds, the wind
sweeping in the open front, having full play
against the side and rear walls in which there
were no breaks to let the wind through thus
offering great resistance. Ii is also claimed
that the building was erected contrary to law
there having been no building permit issued for
a'eeven-story building

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE prsrAroH.,

to Get His Old Job.
nyxc1AL TELEGRAM TO THE pIsPArcH.t
WASHINGTON, October 9.-There is q
new "combination" under discussion in con-
nection with the pension commissionership.
1t involves the transfer Of Internal Revenue
Commissioner Mason to the Pension Bureau,
and the appointment of Green B. Raum to
his old place at the head of the Internal
Revenue Bureau. Ever since he resigned,
in the spring of 1888, General Raum has
been engaged in the practice OF the law here,
making specially OF the class of cases aris-
ing in the liquor and tobacco trades, with
which he became quite familiar during his
term as commissioner. He is Republican,
of the uitra-partisan stripe, and at one time
was supposed to divide the political owner
ship of the State of Illinois with John A.
Logan. What drove him temporarily out
of politics was his yearning to be Senator
at the same time that Mr.. Cullom was seized
with a similar fancy. He broke with Lo-
gan. also. on the question of State boss-ship.
There are plenty of persons within his own
party, as well as without, who refer with
severity to the way he used to marshal the
whole force of his bureau, and the distillers
beside, to the support Of his slate in con-
vention.
Mr.. Mason, who seems now to have
taken General Raum's place in this pro-
gramme, distinguished himself few weeks
ago while on visit to his home State, West
Virginia, by making a speech to the old
soldiers which even Corporal Tanner would
have found it hard tp Outstrip in radiealism.
He proposed to get rid of the surplus by
shoyeling the money out of the Treasury
into the pockets of the veterans under
service pension system, so that every man
of them should have his share. When your
correspondent inquired of him whether this
speech embodied the Presidents ideas on
the subject, he answered:
SIT was my own speech, sir, not the
Presidents. 1 commit nobody to those
sentiments but myself"
He added that he had held no communi-
cation with the President about the speech,
but did not venture to assert whether 1T was
or was not in accord with what he knew to
be the policy of the administration. If he
goes into the Pension Bureau it will be safe
to prepare for revival of the era of
sensations.

A RAILROAD COMPANY INDICTED.
The Interstate Commerce Law to be
Tested in Minnesota.


ST. PAUL, October 9.-The Milwaukee
road has been indicted by the United States
grand jury for violations of the interstate
commerce law, and the trial of the cause
will be of the greatest Importance, testing,
as it will, the night of railroads to charge
higher rates to the interior towns than to
st. Paul and Minneapolis. There is also
involved in the issue the question of hun
dreds of thousands of dollars revenue to the
railroads. 1t is said that Faribault, at the
instance of which town this indictment was
secured, pays to the railroads the sum of
500, 900 year freight rates.
The $500" road was not indicted because
there was 40 case against it. 1t had only
shipped one consignment of alcohol at low
rate and it did not appear that 1t was not
ready to ship ali the alcohol it could get at
the same rate. The trial of the Milwaukee
case will demonstrate the right of railroad
companies to ignore the long and short haul
clause cf the Interstate law, in instances
where it effects the roads revenue.

Friendless Clothing

Nobody intends to buy
mean clothing. 1t isn't made
we'll, it doesn't look well, it
doesn't wear well. The quail
ity is poor, the work cheap,
the price high. It's made to
sham!
Look. out for it at the be-
ginning of the season! Look
out for it at the end! No
body wants it if theyknow it.
It's great on reductions.
How different it is with
Wanamaker clothing. Peo-
pie who get it like it. 1t
wears long, the service is
satisfactory and the price is
low. 1t gains and holds Gus
toners.
We make and sell the
clothing. Dealing with Gus
toners, face to face, is eco
nomical for customers. We
deal with you who are to
wear the clothing. By that

we save profits.
